The queen has four sons and six daughters, and she can call the wind and rain

So the three of them slept together.

There is a big difference between a world of three and a world of two.

When they were alone together, Yun Zhining could act coquettishly and naughtily without restraint, letting Qi Yejing coax her and pamper her.

But with the addition of a child, she had to be more restrained and set a good example as a mother. She could no longer be as close to Qi Yejing as before. She could only watch little Grape hug Qi Yejing's arm and rock back and forth, rubbing against him in his arms and giggling.

"Ahhh, father, your beard is so prickly. It stung my face."

Qi Yejing stroked his beard.

"Then Father will shave when he wakes up tomorrow morning."

"Okay, then don't rub my little face before you shave."

"Okay, okay, our little Grape's face is very fragile. If it gets hurt, father will be distressed."

"Father is so kind, I love him so much!"

"Father loves our little Grape so much."

"I don't want my father to love me well, I want him to love me the most. Am I not his favorite little darling?"

Qi Yejing almost fainted from laughing.

"That's right, little Grape is father's favorite baby. Father loves you the most, more than your eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, fifth brother, and second and third sister."

"What about you? Do you also love Father the most?"

Little Grape stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed.

"Actually, the person I love most is my mother, not my father!"

Qi Yejing pretended to be furious.

"You little grape, you lied to me that you loved me the most, but I'm not the one you loved the most. Humph, I'm angry, and I'm going to punish you."

"Ahhh, no, father, I was wrong, please forgive me!"

"Mother, please come and save me! Father wants to punish me!"

"Ahhh!"

Children have much more energy than adults. In less than half an hour, Qi Yejing was exhausted, but Little Grape was still in high spirits, jumping around and refusing to stop.

"Father, please get up and play with me!"

"Father is no longer able to do it, you ask your mother to play with you."

"Don't!"

Yun Zhining had already laid down.

"I'm tired. If you want to play, let Qingzhu take you out."

"Then forget it."

It was so hard to get the chance to sleep with her father and mother, she couldn't let it be delayed because of such a small matter.

"Since Father and Mother are tired, let's go to bed together."

Qi Yejing bowed and thanked Yun Zhining for saving his life.

Yun Zhining snorted coldly and ignored him.

She was really tired today. After finally waiting for the father and daughter to stop, Yun Zhining could finally relax. In just a few breaths, she fell asleep.

Little Grape was stunned.

"Does mother fall asleep so quickly?"

It seemed like she just touched the pillow and fell asleep so quickly. This is too incredible!

Qi Yejing cried with envy.

How great it would be if he could fall asleep so quickly!

"Okay, mother has fallen asleep, let's go to bed too."

Little Grape nodded, closed her eyes obediently, and fell asleep in less than half a quarter of an hour.

Qi Yejing was shocked again.

It seems that Little Grape inherited this trait from Yun Zhining, which is good. If she were like him, it would be really painful.

Qi Yejing sighed softly, pulled the thin quilt to cover the feet and stomachs of both mother and daughter, then found a familiar posture and slowly closed his eyes.

I don’t know if he was really tired or was influenced by Yun Zhining and Xiao Putao. He just closed his eyes and fell asleep in a short while.

I slept very soundly without any dreams. When I woke up, it was time to go to court.

Dong Ling brought people in to serve, and Qi Yejing asked them to be gentle and not to wake up Yun Zhining and Xiao Putao.

After washing up, Qi Yejing took a mirror and looked at his face.

"Dong Ling, is my beard long?"

"Not counting."

Dong Ling shook his head.

"Why, does your Majesty think your beard pricks you and want you to shave it off?"

"It's not her, it's Little Grape."

"I see."

Dong Ling nodded and smiled.

"Children have delicate skin and will feel uncomfortable with even a little stubble. If the emperor wants to get close to the eldest princess, it is better to shave it off."

"Okay, then you get something and I'll shave off this little stubble."

He didn't have much stubble, but he didn't want to hurt his precious daughter, so he tried his best to shave it off. As a result, he accidentally used too much force and cut his face.

Dong Ling was frightened and immediately sent someone to call the imperial physician.

Yun Zhining was in a daze when she heard the words "imperial physician" and was suddenly awakened.

"What happened? Why do you need to call a doctor when everything is fine?"

Qi Yejing glared at Dong Ling unhappily, then turned around and comforted him.

"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious, just continue to sleep."

As soon as she showed her face, the scars on her face were clearly visible in front of her.

Without having to think, Yun Zhining knew what was going on.

After all, she was an adult, and knowing that Qi Yejing was not seriously injured, she was naturally not that worried. But Little Grape was only a one-year-old child, and she didn't know what was serious and what was not. When she saw Qi Yejing was injured, she thought the sky was falling, and she immediately burst into tears.

She seldom cried, but every time she did, she was extremely hard to comfort. Thus, for the first time in four years since Qi Yejing ascended the throne, he was late for court, and he had a wound on his face.

Upon seeing this, the Prime Minister immediately expressed concern.

"Who hurt the emperor?"

"Prime Minister, don't worry. I just used too much force when I got up early to shave and accidentally hurt my face. That's why it became like this. I'll just apply some medicine later."

Men occasionally encounter such situations. Seeing that Qi Yejing was not seriously injured, the prime minister breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is this the reason why the Emperor was delayed in attending court?"

"No."

"After I was injured, Dong Ling was panicked and wanted to go to the Imperial Hospital to ask for a doctor. As a result, he woke up Ming Guipin and the eldest princess who were sleeping. When they saw that I was injured, they were particularly worried. The eldest princess cried loudly and hugged me. I finally coaxed her and then hurried to the court."

"The eldest princess is such a good and filial child."

Qi Yejing raised his hand to interrupt the prime minister and began to attend court, but he always had a smile on his face and was in a very good mood. When several ministers made mistakes or were dissatisfied with the memorials they put forward, the emperor did not reprimand them harshly, but instead made a few suggestions and asked them to go back and revise them.

The ministers exchanged glances, and everything was said without words.
