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

Shen Jingxuan pursed her lips, glanced at Xie Lingxiao, and ran after Xie Boxu.

This time, Xie Lingxiao really went too far.

What Xu'er is his brother is nothing but an excuse. He just doesn't want Le'er to suffer too much and doesn't want him to be trapped in the palace.

Shen Jingxuan pushed open Xie Boxu's door, closed it again, and sat down next to Xie Boxu.

I thought Xie Boxu would hide in his room and cry because he knew his father loved his younger brother more, but I didn't expect him to just sit quietly on the couch, staring out the window in a daze.

Noticing Shen Jingxuan sitting next to him, he leaned against her.

"Mother, why doesn't father like Xu'er and love his brother more?"

"If he had told me directly how bad it was to be the crown prince, and that one of me and Le'er had to be the crown prince, I would have agreed."

"But why didn't he tell me, but told Le'er all the bad things?"

"The last time I went to the palace, I saw such a magnificent imperial study and so many delicious cakes. I thought the palace was great and wanted to give the position of crown prince to Le'er."

As she was talking, Shen Jingxuan felt a drop of warmth falling on her hand. She suddenly looked down and saw Xie Boxu already in tears.

"Don't cry, Xu'er. Maybe Daddy has other plans. If you don't understand, we can go ask Daddy directly."

"really?"

It’s not that I don’t like or love myself, is there some other reason?

"Well, later on, mother will accompany you to find father and ask him clearly."

"Okay." Xie Boxu responded, leaning in Shen Jingxuan's arms.

Shen Jingxuan looked at his tear-stained face and picked up a handkerchief to gently wipe it.

She had never seen Xie Boxu cry so sadly. If he cried loudly, she would just comfort him.

But seeing him crying silently, she felt her heart aching.

When Xie Lingxiao came to the room, Shen Jingxuan and Xie Boxu seemed not to see him, and the two of them snuggled together.

Shen Jingxuan's voice was soft and gentle. She was reading quietly to Xie Boxu, who was listening quietly.

Xie Lingxiao sat down next to the two of them, and the moment Xie Boxu's eyes fell on him, he turned over and faced away from him.

Shen Jingxuan found it a little funny when she saw Xie Boxu sulking.

She covered her face with the book, the corners of her lips slowly curled up, but the voice did not stop.

Xie Lingxiao took the book in front of Shen Jingxuan. The corners of her lips slightly raised and her eyebrows curved, which caught Xie Lingxiao's attention.

The sound beside his ear suddenly stopped. Xie Boxu looked up suddenly and saw his father looking at his mother with a resentful face.

Noticing his gaze, she glared at him fiercely.

Xie Lingxiao held Xie Boxu's head, pushed him aside, and squeezed himself between the two of them. He finally felt a lot better.

"You will be the crown prince in the future, so stay away from your mother and don't tire my wife out."

Upon hearing this, Xie Boxu pursed his lips and said nothing, turning his head to the side and not looking at Xie Lingxiao.

Shen Jingxuan patted his shoulder gently: "Xu'er, now that daddy is here, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask daddy directly."

Xie Boxu looked at Xie Lingxiao without saying a word, his lips becoming tighter and tighter.

Xie Lingxiao looked at him, sighed slightly, raised his hand and gently stroked his head: "If there is anything you can't figure out, you can ask daddy, and daddy will definitely tell you."

Xie Boxu and Xie Jingle have different personalities. He is sensible, calm, careful, and more measured in his actions, while Xie Jingle...

Maybe because he is the younger brother, everyone takes extra care of him, which makes him spoiled and a little naughty.

Xie Boxu looked at Shen Jingxuan, and seeing her nodding at him, his gaze fell on Xie Lingxiao again.

"Dad, do you not like Xu'er and only like Le'er?"

Xie Lingxiao hugged Xie Boxu into his arms: "Nonsense, Xu'er and Le'er's father both like them, they both like them equally."

"But you always stayed closer to your younger brother. Now there is only one person who can be the crown prince, but you sent me away and told him the bad things to make him refuse to be the crown prince in advance."

Xie Boxu lowered his head and continued, "Dad, if you told me in advance, I would agree too."

He just didn't expect that his father would plan everything in advance just to force the position of crown prince on him in order to prevent his brother from becoming the crown prince.

Xie Lingxiao tapped Xie Boxu’s forehead lightly: “What are you thinking about? You were so smart before, but now you’ve become stupid.”

"Daddy asks you, if both of you were here, and Daddy talked about the position of Crown Prince, could you have snatched Le'er away?"

Xie Boxu shook his head slightly. He couldn't snatch it away from her. As long as it was something Le'er liked, no one could take it away from her.

"Daddy asks you again, do you think Le'er's personality is suitable for being a crown prince?"

"The child doesn't know."

"The crown prince is the foundation of a country. His every word and action represents the country he is in. Le'er is naughty and has no ambition. He is not suitable to be the crown prince."

Seeing Xie Boxu looking confused, Xie Lingxiao patted him on the shoulder.

"Given Le'er's personality, if Daddy hadn't told him that, would he have obediently refused to be the Crown Prince?"

He turned Xie Boxu to face him and said softly, "It's not that Daddy loves Le'er more, it's that Xu'er has been sensible since he was young, and he can do everything well by himself, which makes Daddy and Mommy feel a lot more relaxed."

"But Le'er needs to be taught several times before he can do anything, so you think that Daddy treats him differently from you."

Xie Boxu looked at Xie Lingxiao with bright eyes: "If I can't do it well, will Daddy spend more time teaching Xu'er? Just like teaching Le'er?"

Xie Lingxiao curled his lips and smiled: "Yes, if Xu'er doesn't understand something, Daddy will definitely teach you seriously."

After receiving Xie Lingxiao's affirmation, Xie Boxu's face was filled with smile again.

He misunderstood Daddy, and Daddy didn't dislike him.

Xie Boxu slid down Xie Lingxiao's legs and looked at him without blinking. After a moment, he imitated an adult and bowed to Xie Lingxiao.

"Dad, Xu'er is ignorant and causes you trouble."

"Pfft..." Shen Jingxuan couldn't help laughing out loud.

When Xie Boxu heard Shen Jingxuan's laughter, his cheeks instantly flushed and he stood there for a while, not knowing what to do.

Xie Lingxiao glanced at Shen Jingxuan and held Xie Boxu on his lap.

"Xu'er is very sensible. If you have any worries or don't understand something in the future, you can come to daddy directly. Don't do it like today."

"Dad, Xu'er has made a note of it."

Xie Boxu raised his head to look at Xie Lingxiao, with smiles in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

Shen Jingxuan had already stopped laughing, and stood up and walked out: "Now that we've talked it through, let's go have dinner."

She looked at the night outside and raised the corners of her lips.

After what happened today, Xu'er and Xie Lingxiao reconciled and their knot was untied.

Their family's lives will only get better and better in the future.

The next day, as the sky was getting light, someone knocked hard on the door.
