After crossing over, I am popular with both men and women

After sending Wu Sanlang to the princess's mansion, Su Qinchao did not wait for him outside the mansion, but went directly back to the Jinwu Guard Office.

Today he was originally assigned the task of patrolling the outer city, but he was temporarily transferred by Princess Yucheng, so he had to switch with his colleagues who were originally on duty.

Not knowing what Princess Yucheng would say to Wu Sanlang, Su Qinchao picked up a cup of tea and looked out the window bored.

It was almost noon, and the government office was very quiet, except for the faint sounds of conversation and turning pages coming from the classrooms.

The only sound left was the rustling of leaves in the yard caused by the wind, which made him doze off out of boredom.

Normally, he might have read the military book at this moment, but today he didn't get enough sleep and really had no interest in reading that thing.

Suddenly, a loud noise came from far away, and in just a few breaths, it appeared before his eyes.

"Yuan Ji! What are you doing?" Su Qinchao looked at the only familiar face in the crowd, walked to the door and asked.

"General Su! These are the newly transferred soldiers from the palace." Yuan Ji trotted over, wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained.

At the beginning of May every year, a new batch of soldiers would be transferred in, most of whom inherited the positions of their fathers and brothers.

There are also a small number of people who were selected through strict selection... to fill the previous losses of the palace soldiers.

"For example, I took over my brother's position because he had a lame leg." Yuan Ji used himself as an example.

"So that's how it is." Su Qin nodded after listening, then waved his hand for him to leave.

He went back into the house, holding a bowl of tea, and looked at the young people in the yard with interest.

Really lively. Su Qin squinted his eyes to avoid the sunlight and looked at them one by one. Wow, this boy is good-looking, very good.

Look at the next one, this one has a better figure. Reverse right-angle shoulders, double doors...

Why is there a bald monk? Su Qinchao looked at him again and again in surprise, and only when he saw the several scars on the man's head did he confirm that he was not mistaken.

It’s really…

...

When he got off duty in the evening, Su Qinchao hurried to the princess's mansion.

He had previously told Wu Sanlang that if he came out, he should ask someone to tell the Jinwu Guard.

He originally thought that he would get the news that Wu Sanlang had left the house around mid-afternoon, but he didn't expect that he waited until the end of his shift and didn't see anyone come to report the news.

"Has the businessman surnamed Wu not finished his talk with Her Royal Highness the Princess yet?" Su Qin asked the young clerk Lu who had come to the Princess's mansion.

This Changshi was promoted when the princess got married. He was also a member of the Lu family and the nephew of the original Changshi Lu.

"The princess has just summoned you." Little Chief Clerk Lu shook his head.

"How could it be? Didn't he arrive at 15:30?" Su Qinchao was extremely confused.

"That's right, but at the beginning, His Highness felt unwell, and then he suddenly fainted." Xiao Lu Changshi said, with an expression of joy and sorrow on his face.

"Something happened." Su Qinchao couldn't help but reply.

"Well, later we asked the imperial physician to take a look, and he said that the princess was pregnant, but the signs of pregnancy were not good, and she was too tired recently, so this happened.

We decided not to wake His Highness for the time being, so we did not summon the merchant surnamed Wu until His Highness woke up an hour ago. "

"So that's how it is." Su Qinchao nodded, then asked about Li Yun's situation. When he learned that he was painting in the back garden, he went over directly.

"Isn't the color here wrong?" Su Qinchao handed over his painting and pointed at the wild duck on it and asked.

I haven't painted for some time. When I saw Li Yun painting enthusiastically, I felt itchy and asked the palace maid beside me to prepare a set of painting supplies for me.

But my composition and everything are very good, except the color. I really haven't made any progress in my two lifetimes.

That's why Su Qinchao asked Li Yun, whose painting style has always been bold and bright.

"Master, you need to use rose red. This is too dark." Li Yun came over and added two strokes casually. The feeling immediately became different.

It’s just that his brushwork is not mature enough, and there are some differences from his works if you look closely.

"It's indeed much better looking." Su Qinchao touched his chin, took a few steps back and looked at it again and again.

It turns out that children see things differently from adults. They see things in a more natural way, and the things they see are more wonderful and the colors are more varied.

"Master, how about my painting?" Li Yun also handed over his painting.

Although Li Yun is only in his teens, he started learning painting with Princess Changning when he was six years old. Even though he came to Princess Yucheng's mansion later, Princess Yucheng also hired a famous teacher to teach him.

At present, the worst thing about his paintings is that his brushwork is not mature enough and the composition is not perfect enough. If he can keep persisting, he will surely become a master in the future.

Afterwards, Su Qinchao proposed to draw kite noodles and teach Li Yun how to make a kite. He also said that he would invite Shen Qilin to go to the suburbs to fly kites together during the next ten-day break.

Li Yun was very happy to hear this. He discussed with Su Qinchao what kind of kite surface to draw, and then asked him...

...

This was the scene that Wu Sanlang saw when he was brought here by the palace maid.

The master and his apprentice, one big and one small, stood together and talked and laughed happily, just like a pair of real father and son.

It reminded him of his children in Yizhou. After he got married, he also had some intimate time with his wife, who was also in a marriage alliance.

Later, when his wife became pregnant with twins, he was sent to Japan to do business, and sometimes he could only go back once every few months.

Later, I naturally missed my due date. At that time, I had just taken over the affairs of Japan and it was difficult for me to extricate myself.

When he finished his work and went back, his two children were already half a year old and they would cry when he held them in his arms.

At that time, he was still a teenager with no patience. He kept crying no matter how I comforted him, so I never held him again.

Later, he worked in the business world and as he grew older he began to become more unrestrained. As long as he looked good and was happy, he didn't care about gender.

Therefore, over the years, his two children respected him too much but lacked intimacy with him.

If he hadn't met Su Qinchao and started to restrain himself, who knows what would happen now.

"What's wrong?" On the way back to Yaoyue Tower, Su Qin looked at Wu Sanlang in confusion, who was rarely silent.

His usually unruly eyes and brows were now lowered. Could it be that the princess had told him something very difficult this time?

"Just now, when I saw you playing with the prince, I thought of my children." Wu Sanlang frowned slightly.

Although he had been very dissolute over the years and had taken in many concubines, he also followed the agreement of the marriage and did not allow the birth of illegitimate children.

However, his wife's body was injured when she gave birth to twins, and they were unable to get pregnant again after that. He estimated that he would only have those two children in this life.

He was not very familiar with them yet, but now he saw that Su Qinchao got along so well with children.

I also realized belatedly that I felt a little lonely and had the responsibility of being a father.
