"what?"

Don’t want to be the second one?

Situ Qing was full of anger but hadn't vented yet when he was stunned by his second son's sudden question.

Situ Ran also analyzed seriously: "In fact, I am not much different from my third brother. I heard from my mother that I was born prematurely, so it is not certain who is the second oldest between me and my third brother."

Situ Qing: “…”

"Cough cough cough..."

Situ Mo covered his lips and coughed, and couldn't help but say: "Second brother, forgive me for reminding you, we are six months apart, can you... give birth six months early?"

"What's impossible?"

In order to avoid being the second child, Situ Ran also tried his best and lied with his eyes open: "Third sister and sixth brother are full-term, but they are twins, a boy and a girl, so if they are divided equally, each of them will only be five months."

Everyone: “…” Who taught you to divide it this way?

Situ Qing looked at his second son, and his anger was suddenly extinguished by a basin of cold water!

Could it be that... the second brother is also stupid?

Situ Qing has nine sons. The fifth son has been stupid for so many years, and the eldest son and the third daughter don’t seem to be very smart either. Now, could it be that the second son is also mentally damaged?

This speculation made Situ Qing's lips tremble. He even began to wonder if his ancestors had some genetic disease. Otherwise, how could there be so many talented people in his generation?

"You, Ran'er you..."

Situ Qing softened his voice, and said with caution and tenderness: "Are you tired? How about... you take a rest, and let your father find an imperial physician to see you?"

Situ Ran was stunned for a moment, not used to such a gentle father, and subconsciously said: "I'm not tired, it's just that my ears hurt..." because of the noise.

Even though he said so, Situ Qing did not dare to speak louder.

I originally wanted to ask more, but now he just waved his hand and asked the brothers and sisters to go down the mountain, leaving only Xie Yuantang.

After the children left, Situ Qing showed a worried look and asked anxiously: "Yuan Tang, tell me the truth, is Ran Er sick?"

"what?"

Xie Yuantang tilted her head, not knowing where Situ Qing got this inference from. She recalled and said, "There's no illness. Only the third brother is feeling unwell. The second brother is fine. His voice is particularly loud!" Especially when he was yelling at them.

Not sick?

Situ Qing didn't quite believe it.

If there was nothing wrong with his brain, why would my son say such stupid things?

The matter was of great importance, Situ Qing pressed on: "Then why doesn't he want to be number two?" Isn't he stupid?

Unexpectedly, Situ Qing cared about this. Xie Yuantang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Well, we made him noisy, and..."

The little girl giggled and blinked her big, lively eyes at Situ Qing: "And every time we get into trouble, Father only scolds Second Brother. Second Brother has been traumatized by taking the blame, so he doesn't want to be the second child anymore!"

Situ Qing: “…”

I thought about it over and over again, but I never expected this to be the reason.

Behind Situ Qing, Leng Zhenshan and others were holding back their laughter.

The princes didn't know, but they knew how much my emperor missed his children these days. But they didn't expect that the second prince was fine at all. The emperor's heart as an old father was toyed with!

Situ Qing's face turned black. He thought the second brother was strong, but it turned out that he was a weakling who couldn't bear the mental pressure!

"Humph! Isn't it just to let him discipline his younger brothers and sisters? He can't even handle such a small matter, and you still have the nerve to complain to me!"

Situ Qing slammed the table in anger.

Xie Yuantang trotted forward and massaged his shoulders obediently: "Father, don't be angry. Second brother has been wronged so many times, it's normal for him to have some emotions. Can't you scold someone else next time? I think Third brother is quite suitable!"

Although it is always sick, its endurance is strong!

Situ Qing raised his hand and knocked her on the forehead unhappily: "I think you are the most suitable!"

"Ouch~"

Xie Yuantang covered his head, turned around and ran to Lengzhenshan, hugged his arm and acted like a spoiled child: "Grandfather, you saw it, my father hit me on the head, if I'm stupid, you can blackmail him when you turn around!"

Leng Zhenshan's mouth twitched. He didn't expect that his granddaughter and the emperor would get along like this.

Their Leng family has been loyal to the emperor for generations, but no one dared to speak to the emperor like this.

Leng Zhenshan was just about to persuade his little granddaughter to take out the tiger seal when he heard Situ Qing angrily say:

"You haven't blackmailed me yet? Aren't you the one who made me spend three thousand miles to buy the tiger-head seal?"

Xie Yuantang curled his lips and said, "Father, let's be reasonable. I really sold it at a low price for Sanqianli. After all, I got the seal with my own strength. You can't let me make no profit at all!"

That familiar headache is coming back!

Situ Qing's temple twitched and he said unhappily, "You stole it!"

Xie Yuantang blinked: "I stole it with my own strength!"

Situ Qing: "I asked you to participate in the competition, is that so that you can act like this?"

Xie Yuantang: "You didn't say no."

Situ Qing: “…”

He was so angry that he couldn't even sit still. He stood up and pointed at Xie Yuantang: "Little bastard! Come here!"

It would be strange if Xie Yuantang could get through!

She hid behind Leng Zhenshan and said, "Father, if you hit me, I will go back and complain to my husband. If he knows you bullied me, he will definitely ignore you!"

Situ Qing: “…” No, my blood pressure is rising again!

Qu Pei: “…” Little Imperial Concubine, please say less. Can’t you see that the Emperor is furious?

Qu Pei hurried over to pour tea and massage Xie Yuantang's shoulders, and kept winking at her: "Oh my little imperial concubine, please don't be angry with the emperor. The emperor has been worried about you these days. He looks forward to seeing you every day and even wants to ask someone to look for you, fearing that someone is sick and unwell."

After he said this, the Leng family father and son came back to their senses from the shock they had just experienced.

It’s not that they didn’t want to persuade him, but they were too surprised and couldn’t get a word in.

"Ahem..." Leng Zhenshan touched his granddaughter's head: "Eunuch Qu is right, Yuantang, why don't you go and admit your mistake?"

In fact, Xie Yuantang was just joking with Situ Qing and didn't mean to really anger him. After hearing what Eunuch Qu said, she immediately moved over.

Seeing her coming, Situ Qing snorted and turned his head away.

Xie Yuantang: “…”

Fortunately, she has plenty of experience in appeasing the emperor.

Xie Yuantang tugged at Situ Qing's sleeve with her little hand and said with a flattering smile, "Father, do you want to know what we have been doing these days?"

"In no mood!"

"Then do you want to know how many tiger head seals I have in my hand?"

"..."

Situ Qing narrowed his eyes, and Leng Zhenshan and Leng Yunting were also stunned.

Leng Yunting blurted out, "What do you mean by several? Didn't you steal more than just our seals?"

Xie Yuantang glared at him: "Second uncle, that's not called stealing, that's called scheming!"

Situ Qing asked coldly: "How many seals do you have?"

Xie Yuantang smiled and pulled him to sit down, patting his back with his little hands, and said in a sweet and lovely voice: "Not many, just three."

Everyone: "..."
