Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 2240

Tsk! Some people work like beasts of burden, while others live happier than gods.

Emperor Wenxuan thought of Pingting's tears and looked at the enviable scene in front of him, and he was really furious.

On a flower stand not far away, the retired emperor, wearing a plain linen short shirt with his sleeves rolled up, was enjoying the warm spring sunshine, leisurely fiddling with the branches and leaves of the colorful flowers on the stand.

The man in the spring light had not become stooped by the passing of time, his posture was as straight as ever. His profile was gilded with a layer of gold, and there was no deep furrow between his brows. His smiling eyes reflected the spring scenery in the garden and the woman with the brightest smile in the spring scenery.

"Come down quickly! Don't climb so high! Be careful not to fall!" The woman shouted under the flower stand, her voice still clear.

The man laughed, "Mr. Chu, don't worry, you won't fall! I'm very careful." He twisted the green vine with his fingertips, pulling it left and right, and bent the thorny branches into a heart-shaped arc on the wooden frame.

Tsk! Heart shape! Emperor Wenxuan was getting increasingly irritated.

His family is almost falling apart, yet his father still has the leisure to take care of flowers.

I heard that it was just a joke made by the Empress Dowager, and as a result his father became obsessed with being a gardener.

Whenever the Empress Dowager said a dish was delicious, the imperial kitchen would prepare it for the entire month.

He has to vomit after eating!

The emperor doesn't care what he thinks, women are more important than his son!

"Oh, the emperor is here." Tang Chujun turned his head and saw Emperor Wenxuan.

Emperor Wenxuan stepped forward and greeted him, then looked up at his father and said, "Father, do you have time to speak to me for a few minutes?"

Xiao Yunde just sat on the flower stand and refused to get down. He said casually, "Just say it if you want to." Then he said excitedly, "What do you think of the style of my flower stand?"

Emperor Wen Xuan said without even looking at him, "Come down, let's go to the study and have a private talk. I don't have the heart to look at your flower stand right now!"

Tang Chujun saw that Emperor Wenxuan was in a bad mood and hurriedly said, "I'll go have dinner served. Now that you two have finished your conversation, Your Majesty can stay and have dinner. I'll go get the three little princesses."

After she left, only the father and son were left in the garden.

Xiao Yunde's face darkened, "You scared your mother."

Emperor Wenxuan said nothing.

Xiao Yunde slowly descended from the flower stand, washing his hands in the copper basin while saying calmly, "When you encounter a little trouble, you just want to unload the burden on your shoulders. I sent you to train with your brother-in-law for three years for nothing. You've learned nothing!"

"How many people in the world are as capable as my brother-in-law?" Emperor Wen Xuan shouted.

Xiao Yunde sat down, his eyes blazing. "I let you see this flower stand so you can see the flourishing branches and leaves of the North Wing. Because of you, my son, I can have the leisure to pick flowers and plants, and live a normal life like ordinary people. I have always been proud of you."

Emperor Wen Xuan was about to cry, "You've lived a normal life, but mine isn't. Xiao Pingting is going to leave me and run away!"

"Why?" Xiao Yunde asked himself, answering, "Just because I have another daughter? What's wrong with having a daughter? If I have a lot of daughters, what if one of them suddenly emerges as smart as Xia'er? Wouldn't that be a huge win?"

Emperor Wenxuan felt even worse after hearing his father's nonsense. "Do you think that just because my sister calls you father, she is truly my biological sister? How could my daughter be as smart as my sister?"

Even if he was as smart as the imperial sister, could he, Beiyi, really produce an empress?

He knew his father didn't care about his life or death, so he sat down opposite him and said angrily, "Back then, we agreed that I was just a puppet... Now that the throne is back to you, can you please give me a chance to live?"
