The foolish girl returns, and the regent becomes a wife-loving madman

The emperor never imagined that his nephew, whom he had been thinking about for more than a year, would be kidnapped.

Looking at Xie Boxu lying quietly on the imperial desk, the emperor pursed his slightly pale lips.

"Eunuch Deng, go and announce the Marquis of Anguo to the palace."

The emperor looked at Shen Jingxuan: "When will Xu'er wake up?"

For some reason, seeing Xie Boxu lying there quietly, his heart was always in his throat and he dared not let it go.

Especially when he saw Xie Lingxiao's face, he always felt that something bad was going to happen.

The emperor knew how important these two children were to Xie Lingxiao. Now that they had encountered such a situation, he would not let them go easily.

Shen Jingxuan frowned slightly: "Give him some water, maybe he will wake up faster."

Just now in the carriage, she had checked Xie Boxu's body. Judging from his current condition, he would wake up in another hour.

Now that he's been delayed on the road for so long, he should wake up soon.

The emperor ordered Eunuch Deng to bring water, and he personally took the spoon and fed it to Xie Boxu's mouth little by little.

If she noticed a little liquid flowing out from the corner of his mouth, she would take out her soft handkerchief and gently wipe it off.

Shen Jingxuan looked at the emperor in shock, and for a moment she couldn't understand why the emperor was so attentive to Xie Boxu.

Xie Lingxiao looked at everything in front of him indifferently, but his dark eyebrows were still furrowed.

The emperor must never be allowed to see Xie Boxu and Xie Jingle again.

Xie Lingxiao didn't know why, but when he looked at the emperor's actions, he always felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.

When Marquis Anguo arrived at the imperial study, the first person that caught his eye was He Jun kneeling on the ground.

He suddenly looked up at the emperor, and was startled to see him carefully wiping the corners of the child's mouth.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Marquis Anguo suppressed his panic and saluted the emperor.

The emperor seemed not to hear it and continued with his actions.

It was not until half a quarter of an hour later that Xie Boxu's brows gradually frowned, and the emperor hurriedly looked at Shen Jingxuan.

"Come and see if Xu'er is about to wake up?"

Shen Jingxuan came to the desk and called Xie Boxu's name softly, only to see his brows furrowing more and more.

Seeing this, Xie Lingxiao gently pinched Xie Boxu's cheek, and the emperor raised his hand and slapped him.

"What if your rough hands get pinched and broken?"

Shen Jingxuan couldn't help but twitching the corners of her mouth. She looked down at Xie Lingxiao's hand, and the corners of her lips gradually curled up.

Xie Lingxiao already had martial arts skills, and even though he had not been to the battlefield in the past few years, he had never missed the habit of practicing sword skills every day.

Indeed...it's indeed a bit rough?

Xie Lingxiao glared at the emperor: "My hands are rough, and he is my son. If I want to give birth to him, I can do it myself."

He obviously also had an underage prince, but he paid special attention to his own son.

The emperor said: "How can a warrior know how to take care of a child? I can take better care of him."

Hearing the emperor's words, Xie Lingxiao's heart tightened and he looked at the emperor suspiciously.

Looking at the emperor's calm face, he became more resolute in his thoughts.

"So what if you are a warrior? If there were no warriors, your kingdom would have been changed long ago."

"snort... ..."

The emperor turned his head away and ignored Xie Lingxiao.

Shen Jingxuan shook her head slightly, and she continued to change two Xie Boxu.

Xie Boxu turned over and said, "Mother, Xu'er is so sleepy."

The emperor listened to his soft voice, his heart softened, and he raised his hand and patted Xie Boxu's small body.

"If you feel tired, just sleep for a while. It's okay."

Xie Boxu suddenly opened his eyes and saw a stranger in front of him, staring at the emperor without blinking.

When their eyes met, Xie Boxu sat up suddenly, and when he saw Shen Jingxuan beside him, he stretched out his hands towards her.

Just as Shen Jingxuan was about to pick up Xie Boxu, the emperor took him into his arms first.

"Uncle Huang, hold me. Xu'er doesn't want to sleep anymore?"

Xie Boxu looked at Shen Jingxuan in confusion, but his brows were tightly furrowed. His expression was exactly the same as Xie Lingxiao's frown.

The emperor laughed at his expression and said, "The frown on your face is exactly like your father's."

Shen Jingxuan said softly: "Xu'er, this is your uncle."

"Uncle Emperor..." Xie Boxu called out in a soft voice.

The emperor's eyes flushed instantly. He looked at Xie Boxu and saw the corners of his lips trembling slightly. He wanted to respond, but no sound came out.

After a while, the emperor finally found his voice.

"Xu'er, are you hungry? Uncle Huang will ask the imperial kitchen to make you something delicious, okay?"

Xie Boxu looked at Shen Jingxuan, and seeing her smiling at him, he said softly, "Thank you, Uncle Huang."

He hadn't eaten for the whole day, and if he wasn't so hungry, he would have liked to continue sleeping for a while.

Xie Lingxiao stood aside, looking at the emperor's attentive appearance, his dark brows furrowed the whole time.

It’s not that the emperor has no underage princes, but he has never seen the emperor love anyone as much as he does Xie Boxu.

Not to mention whether the princes were hungry, even if they stood in front of the emperor, he didn't ask them a few questions.

The more the emperor acted like this, the more alert Xie Lingxiao became, as if the emperor wanted to snatch his son away.

Shen Jingxuan's eyes wandered between the emperor and Xie Lingxiao, and for a moment she couldn't understand what they were thinking.

But looking at Xie Lingxiao, who looked like his son had been taken away from him, she couldn't help but shake her head slightly.

Fortunately, it was Xie Boxu who entered the palace today. If it was Xie Jingle...

Shen Jingxuan was even worried that Xie Lingxiao would disregard the emperor's face and carry Xie Jingle out of the palace directly, never to step into the palace again.

"Xu'er, do you think Uncle Huang's imperial study is good? Do you like it?"

Xie Boxu looked around: "It's magnificent."

The emperor laughed and said, "Xu'er is indeed a man of vision. I will come to visit my uncle more often in the future."

"Okay." Xie Boxu responded.

Until the pastries were delivered from the imperial kitchen, the emperor personally fed Xie Boxu, wiped the corners of his mouth clean, and placed him on the imperial desk, allowing him to play.

Marquis Anguo saw everything with his own eyes and was already covered in cold sweats.

He never imagined that the child they captured was so important to the emperor.

It was so important that I personally fed him water, fed him food, and wiped the corners of his mouth...

This is a treatment that no prince or princess has ever had.

The emperor put away the smile on his face, looked at the two people kneeling in the middle of the imperial study, and spoke in a cold voice.

"Tell me, who told you to arrest Xu'er, and why did you arrest him?"

He Jun hurriedly said: "I want to arrest him, it has nothing to do with Anguo Marquis Mansion."

Marquis Anguo said, "Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with my son. I took the child away because I was holding a grudge against him for what happened last time."

How could he not see now that the emperor truly loved that child and would investigate the matter thoroughly for him?

All he could do was take everything on himself.

He Jun looked at Marquis Anguo in shock, not understanding why he suddenly changed his mind.

"Dad, it was clearly me who did it. The Regent caught me on the spot. How could it have anything to do with you?"

Xie Lingxiao didn't want to hear the two of them confessing their guilt to each other. He just wanted to deal with the matter quickly and take Shen Jingxuan and Xie Boxu out of the palace.

"Bring Lu Wenxi here. She will know the truth when she arrives."

Lu Wenxi?
