The system takes the poor cub to find his father
Chapter 487 Stupid Daddy (2 chapters in 1)
"Ming Jiang?" When Ming Yunqi heard this name, his expression froze for a moment, as if something had struck a memory deep in his heart.
Why is this name so familiar?
Ming Yunqi's hand unconsciously fell on Ming Jiang's slender neck and kneaded it gently.
The child in front of him was so fragile that he could easily break the child's tender neck with just a little force. The innocent and fragile look made him feel a complex emotion.
From beginning to end, Bai Lian stood quietly by the side without saying a word. He looked at Ming Yunqi's big hand on the cub's neck, and his eyes suddenly became deep.
As expected, as the emperor of the Dayu Dynasty, Ming Yunqi was as suspicious and cruel as the outside world said.
At this moment, he was thinking in his heart, is Ming Yunqi planning to use this little cub to threaten him if he makes any unusual move?
Bai Lian's eyes grew increasingly cold, as if water could drip out of them. That tangible gaze brought Ming Yunqi back to his senses from the shock brought to him by the little cub.
Ming Yunqi keenly sensed the strong hostility coming from Bai Lian. He abruptly withdrew his hand from the cub's neck, as if he had done something wrong. He subconsciously put Ming Jiang behind him, his eyes full of vigilance, staring at Bai Lian closely.
"I wonder if the wise and mighty Emperor wanted to use his own child to threaten me, the one who sent the child to you, to surrender?" Bai Lian asked coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice, echoing in the empty hall.
Ming Yunqi was speechless for a moment, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face.
Although he did have such a thought just now, he regretted it the next second. He felt a little guilty for some reason and didn't even dare to turn around to meet the little cub's disappointed and sad eyes.
"You are indeed worthy of being the Emperor. Even a tiger will not eat its own cubs! Your Majesty truly has great power." Bai Lian continued to mock mercilessly. Every word was like a sharp knife, piercing Ming Yunqi's heart.
"Have you said enough? Shut up!" In an instant, an unprecedented murderous intent burst out from Ming Yunqi. That aura seemed to drop the temperature of the entire hall. He wished that this chatterbox would shut up immediately.
Ming Yunqi did not lower his voice when he shouted angrily. Li Defu, who had been waiting patiently outside the door, became panicked when he heard the sound and hurriedly pushed the door open.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty, what happened to you?" Li Defu looked at Ming Yunqi with a worried look in his eyes. He quickly scanned the hall and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Ming Yunqi was not injured.
"You..." Ming Yunqi watched Li Defu walk straight past the annoying man, but he seemed to be completely unaware of his existence, and his heart suddenly tightened. Could it be that other people really couldn't see these two people?
"Your Majesty?" Li Defu looked puzzled. Why did he feel that His Majesty's behavior today was always strange, completely different from his usual majestic image?
"It's okay, you can go down. Don't come in without my order, even if there is any noise coming from the hall." Ming Yunqi suppressed his inner doubts and uneasiness, trying to make his voice sound calmer.
"But..." Li Defu raised his eyes and met Ming Yunqi's expressionless face. His cold eyes seemed to be able to see through his soul. He couldn't help but shudder and broke out in a cold sweat. As expected, His Majesty's majesty was not something that ordinary people could bear. He quickly bowed and said, "Well, I will take my leave."
With a click, the door was gently closed. For a moment, the hall returned to silence, as if the fierce conflict just now had never happened.
Although Ming Yunqi disliked the man in front of him, for some reason, a voice deep in his heart told him that this guy did not seem to lie to him.
Maybe, this kid is really his child.
"So what do you want?" Ming Yunqi looked at Bai Lian steadily, with a trace of scrutiny in his eyes, "You send the cub back, what do you want to get? As long as it does not endanger the Great Yu, I can help you achieve whatever you want."
Bai Lian instantly understood the implication of his words, which was simply that he wanted her to stay away from the cub.
Humph, this damn old father's possessiveness, even if he has lost his memory,
This guy is still jealous.
He is simply dreaming if he wants me to stay away from him.
Bai Lian sneered. He just didn't want to let this guy get his wish.
"I want to stay with the cub and protect him. You can see the current situation. Others can't even see the cub, let alone take care of him. And you, as the king of a country, are busy with all kinds of affairs. I don't believe you have the time to take care of him yourself."
What's more, according to the plot, this guy will fall into a coma in two years, and Ming Yunqi will be powerless to take care of the cub by then.
Ming Yunqi looked at Bai Lian's confident expression, and inexplicably felt that what this man said made sense. After a moment of silence, he said, "Okay, I can promise you, but if you do anything, be careful that I will turn against you."
After saying that, Ming Yunqi held the little cub in his arms, strode straight through Bailian and walked towards the inner hall, leaving only the words "Do as you please".
Ming Jiang looked at his father who was completely different from usual. His face was wrinkled like a little bun, full of worry and confusion. "Daddy, do you really not remember Ming Jiang?" The little cub's voice was a little disappointed and a little anxious.
"Daddy, you are so stupid. It's only been a short time since you left Mingjiang, but you've been bullied to the point that you've forgotten about your own cub. How can I leave you alone in the future?" The little cub said like a little adult, with his hands on his hips and a worried look on his face.
"Yes! So what should we do?" Ming Yunqi looked at the little cub who was worried about him, and somewhere deep in his heart suddenly became warm, and an indescribable emotion seemed to burst out. It was a wonderful feeling he had never experienced before.
"What else can I do? Of course I have to keep my cub by my side in the future. This also makes me worry! You are the father!" The little cub glared at him with his black eyes and said unhappily.
Ming Yunqi was scolded by his own cub, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, he felt it was a bit novel. He gently touched the cub's head, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously. Maybe it wouldn't be bad to keep this little guy who suddenly appeared by his side.
Looking at Ming Yunqi who looked as if he was daydreaming, Ming Jiang knew that his father must have regarded his words as those of a child and would never take them to heart. Ming Jiang could not help but pout.
"Daddy, are you listening?" Seeing that Ming Yunqi was a little absent-minded, Ming Jiang couldn't help but pouting, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.
Ming Yunqi came back to his senses, looked at the little guy with a wrinkled face in front of him, and his heart softened. He quickly responded, "Okay, I know." He clumsily picked up the wet towel and gently wiped Ming Jiang's little hand. After wiping, he picked up a bowl of fresh milk jelly that had just been delivered from the table and handed it to Ming Jiang.
"Try it, it's a new dish from the imperial kitchen, I heard it tastes good."
Ming Jiang took the bowl and felt the cool touch in his hands, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Although it was winter in the real world, it was hot here, and a bowl of cold fresh milk jelly was undoubtedly the best way to relieve the heat. The bowl was also dotted with a few fresh seasonal fruits, sour, sweet and refreshing. Just smelling the faint milk fragrance, Ming Jiang couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
He carefully scooped a spoonful and handed it to Ming Yunqi's mouth, blinking his big eyes, full of anticipation: "Daddy, do you want to try it?"
Ming Yunqi has always been a germaphobe and never shares tableware with others, but seeing Ming Jiang's eager expression, he opened his mouth and took in the spoonful of fresh milk jelly. The aroma of milk and fruit intertwined in his mouth, sweet but not greasy, refreshing and pleasant.
"Is it delicious, Daddy?" Ming Jiang asked expectantly, looking up at his little face.
"Well, not bad." Ming Yunqi nodded, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.
Li Defu, who served him personally, recently discovered that his majesty seemed to have changed a lot. The emperor who used to be stern, cold and majestic now often talked to himself, and even asked for food that children liked to eat when he ate. What was even more strange was that every time he ate, his majesty would always put a small bowl next to him and put food in it from time to time. What was even more strange was that the food put into the bowl would always disappear inexplicably in the end.
Every time Li Defu saw this scene, his heart couldn't help but beat. He always wondered if His Majesty was entangled by something unclean, especially recently, His Majesty had been making some strange laughs from time to time, as if he was talking to someone. Li Defu was uneasy, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he could only pray silently that His Majesty was well.
Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye. As spring goes by and autumn comes and winter comes and summer goes, the relationship between father and son becomes more and more warm. However, the gears of fate turn quietly, and the day that was destined to come finally comes.
That morning, before dawn, Ming Yunqi got up from the bed quietly. Inside the bed, Ming Jiang was hugging the corner of the quilt and sleeping soundly. The light of the candlelight dazzled his eyes. Ming Jiang hummed in dissatisfaction, rubbed his eyes in a daze, and muttered: "Daddy~"
"Be good and continue sleeping. Daddy will be back soon to have breakfast with you." Ming Yunqi patted Ming Jiang's back gently and coaxed her softly.
Under Ming Yunqi's comfort, Ming Jiang soon fell asleep again. However, at this time, neither of them thought that this would be the last time they met in a waking state.
Ming Yunqi had been feeling a little uneasy since he woke up. He felt something big was going to happen today, but he couldn't tell what it was. Thinking of the recent intelligence, the remnants of the Wu clan were active and might even be colluding with Ming Youzong, the patriarch of the Ming clan. Ming Yunqi's eyes turned cold.
He knew exactly what the old man was planning. Recently, more and more people in the court had proposed to select clan members to enter the palace. Ming Yunqi didn't believe that there was no instigation from Ming Youzong. That old fox had been coveting the throne and had been secretly planning for many years. Now he could no longer hold back.
"Your Majesty, the time has come." Li Defu knocked on the door. Ever since Ming Yunqi discovered Ming Jiang's existence, he rarely let the palace maids and eunuchs enter the bedroom, for fear of disturbing Ming Jiang.
"Give orders, no one is allowed to enter the bedroom without my order." Ming Yunqi lowered his voice, with unquestionable majesty in his tone.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Defu had long been accustomed to His Majesty's instructions before attending court every day, and responded respectfully.
Ming Yunqi turned around and looked at the white-haired man who appeared at some point - Bai Lian. He felt a little uneasy, thinking something would happen today, but deep down he seemed to be waiting for something.
"Take good care of Ming Jiang." Ming Yunqi said in a deep voice, with a barely perceptible hint of worry in his tone.
Bai Lian glanced at him calmly and sneered in his heart. This guy should just take care of himself first. He didn't say much, but just nodded slightly, which was considered as an agreement.
Ming Yunqi took a deep breath, straightened his robe, and walked out of the hall.
Bai Lian walked through the door of the bedroom. The whole room was filled with the scent of Long Yanxiang. Behind the thick curtains, Ming Jiang was sleeping soundly. Bai Lian walked over and looked at the little guy who kicked the quilt under the bed because it was too hot. He smiled helplessly. He bent down, picked up the quilt on the ground, and gently put it on Ming Jiang.
"Daddy... don't leave me!" Ming Jiang murmured in her sleep, and her little hand unconsciously grabbed Bai Lian's sleeve.
Bai Lian paused for a moment, looked down at the tender little face, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. He gently pried Ming Jiang's little hands apart, tucked the quilt in, and whispered, "Don't worry, your father will be fine."
Ming Jiang seemed to have heard his voice, her brows relaxed slightly, and her breathing gradually became steady. Bai Lian stood by the bed, looking at him quietly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
At the same time, Ming Yunqi had already arrived at the court. In the hall, civil and military officials were standing on both sides, and the atmosphere was solemn. Ming Yunqi sat on the dragon chair, looking at everyone with a cold gaze. His eyes stayed on Ming Youzong for a moment, and then moved away.
"If you have anything to report, please do so. If not, leave the court." Li Defu shook off the dust and announced loudly.
A minister stepped forward and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Wu clan's remnants have been active recently, and there have been frequent disturbances on the border. I think we should strengthen border defense to prevent any unexpected events."
Ming Yunqi nodded and was about to speak when he suddenly felt dizzy. He subconsciously held onto the armrest of the dragon throne and his vision went dark. He heard the panicked voices of the ministers: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
Ming Yunqi wanted to respond, but found that he could no longer make a sound. His consciousness gradually became blurred, and finally his eyes were fixed on the eyes that avoided his gaze but concealed joy.
Ming Yunqi wanted to struggle, but he was powerless. His body slowly fell from the dragon throne. The last thing he heard was Li Defu's loud panicked cry.
"Come here, come here quickly and get the imperial physician, the imperial preceptor, and those two here together,"
