The regent is determined to get the daughter of a minor official.

The little emperor was six years old this year. He did not wear a crown when he went to court, but only tied his hair with a golden crown.

The bright yellow dragon robe made him look even more noble and lovely.

He straightened his clothes and walked into the palace with small steps.

"Grandson pays respects to the Imperial Grandmother!"

The little emperor walked quickly to the Empress Dowager and bowed obediently.

The Empress Dowager's face was full of kindness.

"Come here quickly and let me see if everything goes well in the court today."

The little emperor walked to the side of the Empress Dowager.

"Replying to the Imperial Grandmother, everything is fine as long as the Imperial Uncle is here."

Princess Rui smiled and said, "Your Majesty is becoming more and more sensible."

Chu Musheng walked in and saluted the Empress Dowager first.

"My son, I pay my respects to my mother."

The Empress Dowager looked at her youngest son lovingly, and felt that he was becoming more calm, composed, and noble.

The Empress Dowager was very pleased.

"No need to be polite, my son. Please take a seat!"

Chu Musheng straightened up and did not sit down immediately. Instead, he looked for Xu Keke in the crowd.

Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, but it's not a full birthday celebration, and there are floods in the south this year.

So it was a palace family banquet, and all the guests were members of the royal family.

The Empress Dowager followed Chu Musheng's gaze, understood, and said with a smile.

"Sheng'er, are you looking for my daughter-in-law and grandson? Just now, Xuan'er wanted to use the restroom, and my daughter-in-law took him to the toilet."

Chu Musheng felt relieved and said with a bow.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, mother. I haven't seen them for a long time, so I can't help but miss them."

When the people around heard what he said, they couldn't understand how long it had been since they last saw each other.

Everyone in the court knew that the Regent loved his wife dearly.

No matter how busy he was, he had to go back to the palace every night to accompany his princess.

It's only noon now, has he been missing for a long time?

Didn’t he come out of Prince Sheng’s Mansion early this morning?

The Empress Dowager didn't know how to answer. Ever since her youngest son got married, he has been showing his love all the time.

In recent years, the powerful officials in the court have often wanted to send beauties to their youngest sons.

What is the result?

The punishment may be a reprimand at the least and dismissal from office at the most serious.

No one dared to act rashly anymore.

At this time, Xu Keke came in holding the young master, followed by Nanny Wang, Dingdang and Anxiang.

Xu Keke saw Chu Musheng and bowed slightly to him.

"I have met the prince."

The young prince Chu Mingxuan also saw his father, stretched out his two little arms to him, and could only utter simple monosyllabic words.

“Dad…Dad…”

Chu Mucheng's eyes instantly locked on them, and the expression on his face softened instantly.

He strode over, took the child from Xu Keke's arms, and kissed the child on the face.

"Hey! Daddy's good son."

The young master Chu Mingxuan let out a "chuckle", attracting many people in the hall to look over.

I'm jealous!

The Prince Regent and the Princess are a loving couple, there is not a single concubine in the mansion, and the young prince is extremely cute.

The young master Chu Mingxuan has just turned one year old, and his arms and legs are very strong.

Dingdang and Anxiang helped him practice walking every day.

Xuan Ge'er has always been surrounded by a lot of people serving him since he was a child, which makes him never feel shy.

Whenever someone wants to hug him, he opens his arms and jumps into their arms.

Therefore, almost everyone likes this young master.

Chu Musheng held his son in his arms and nudged Xu Keke with his arm.

"Princess, are you tired?"

Xu Ke smiled and shook her head, not tired at all.

Dingdang Anxiang always takes care of the children. Just now, when Xuan'er wanted to go to the toilet, she just went along as a formality.

The Empress Dowager was waving over there.

"Sheng'er, quickly bring my little grandson to me."

Chu Musheng walked over with his son in his arms and carefully handed Chu Mingxuan to the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager took the young master and smiled so much that her eyes narrowed.

"Oh, my dear, you miss grandma so much."

The young prince smiled with his mouth open, waving his little hands in the Empress Dowager's arms, babbling for a while before uttering a word.

"Grandfather..."

The Empress Dowager was even happier when she heard this.

"Oh, my dear grandson is calling me!"

Everyone gathered around and praised the young master for his intelligence.

The little emperor also came over and gently held the little prince's hand.

"Xuan'er, look at me. I am your royal brother."

The young prince blinked his big eyes, looked at the little emperor, suddenly laughed, and opened his arms to him.

The little emperor was immediately moved. He moved closer to the young master and kissed him on the cheek.

When the Empress Dowager saw this scene, she laughed so hard that she couldn't stop.

"Look, these two brothers are so close."

Many concubines followed with another round of praise.

Chu Musheng and Xu Keke looked at each other, affection in their eyes.

At this time, Rong Mama, who was beside the Empress Dowager, came to report.

"Master, the birthday banquet is ready, it's time to start."

The Empress Dowager nodded.

"Then take your seats."

Everyone took their seats in order of status.

Chu Musheng held the young master and sat at the same table with Xu Keke, the Empress Dowager, the young emperor, Prince Rui, Princess Rui and others.

Delicious dishes were served one after another, and there was constant laughter and joy throughout the meal.

The little emperor would look at the young prince from time to time, his eyes full of love.

After three rounds of drinks, the Empress Dowager spoke.

"I am very happy to have this birthday banquet today. I hope that our royal family will always be harmonious and prosperous in the future."

Everyone raised their glasses in response.

Xu Keke took a sip of wine and his face turned slightly red.

Seeing this, Chu Musheng asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

Xu Ke smiled and shook his head.

"My concubine is fine."

The young master sat in Chu Musheng's arms and tugged at his sleeves.

"eat......"

Chu Musheng looked at his son lovingly, scooped a small spoonful of chicken broth and egg custard, and fed it to his mouth.

The young master smacked his lips and ate with gusto, and soon the small bowl of egg custard was finished.

Chu Musheng gently wiped the residue from the corner of his son's mouth with a handkerchief.

"This little guy is such a little foodie."

Xu Ke covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Exactly like you, my Lord."

Chu Musheng raised his eyebrows.

"This prince has a good appetite. My son will take after me and will surely grow tall and strong in the future."

Xu Keke could take a look at Chu Musheng's long legs under the table.

The prince is indeed tall and handsome, so it would be nice if his son looks like him.

As he was speaking, the young master yawned after eating and rubbed his eyes.

Nanny Wang, who was serving behind him, hurried over.

"My Lord, Princess, the young master must be sleepy. I'll take him to the side hall to get some sleep!"

"Alright."

Chu Musheng handed the child to Nanny Wang, and Dingdang and Anxiang immediately followed Nanny Wang to the side hall.

Now that he didn't have to look after the children, Chu Musheng started drinking with Prince Rui and his brothers.

Prince Rui lost one hand on the battlefield two years ago, but it did not affect his daily life at all.

After becoming a princess, her status is more noble than other royal members and she looks in excellent condition.

Princess Rui and Xu Ke often visit each other and have a good relationship in private.

The two sisters-in-law chatted with the Grand Empress Dowager, making her laugh from time to time.
