Rebirth: I Raise a Husband in Another World

Huangfu Zuo picked up Huangfu Qian and put him on his lap. Don’t mention it, he was just a ten-year-old child, and he was also a member of the royal family.

Everything about his diet is the best, there is no malnutrition, but he is a bit heavy to hold.

Huangfu Qian greeted Liang Jingyan sweetly: "Hello, father and queen."

Liang Jingyan was delighted to see their brotherly and respectful scene, and replied, "Hello to you too, Qian'er."

Huangfu Qian leaned on Huangfu Zuo's chest, raised his head, and looked at Huangfu Zuo with a pair of bright eyes.

He pressed on, "Brother Crown Prince, you haven't answered my question yet. Have you missed me these days?"

Huangfu Zuo smiled and asked Huangfu Qian: "I thought about it, but I heard that you haven't been very well behaved recently."

Huangfu Qian didn't think about it when he heard it, and subconsciously retorted: "No, I'm a very well-behaved child. There is no better child than me in the whole palace. I have been waiting for the prince to come back.

If you don't believe me, ask my father. I go to school diligently every day and complete the homework assigned by my teachers conscientiously.

Huangfu Zuo: "Aren't these what you should do? You really know how to flatter yourself.

That's not what I want to say. I heard from my father that you've been bothering me every day during my absence, right?"

Huangfu Qian likes Huangfu Zuo, but at the same time, he is a little afraid of Huangfu Zuo.

There is a saying that an elder brother is like a father. Although theoretically the eldest prince is Huangfu Qian's elder brother, in Huangfu Qian's heart, Huangfu Zuo is his elder brother.

Sometimes when Huangfu Qian made a mistake, he would dare to act coquettishly and flatter Liang Jingyan to get away with it, but he didn't dare to do that to Huangfu Zuo.

Because he knew clearly that Liang Jingyan might not be able to be cruel enough to teach him a lesson, but Huangfu Zuo would definitely be able to do so.

Therefore, whenever you make a mistake, the best way to deal with it when facing Huangfu Zuo is to actively admit it, do so with a good attitude, and promise that you will never make the same mistake again. After doing this, basically everything will be fine.

After hearing what Huangfu Zuo said, Huangfu Qian suddenly felt guilty and short of breath for some reason.

Because when he thought carefully about what he had done these days, it seemed that he had really disturbed his father.

Now, Huangfu Qian didn't dare to look into Huangfu Zuo's eyes. He lowered his head and looked in the direction of Liang Jingyan.

She said weakly, "Father, I'm sorry. I haven't been very sensible these days."

Liang Jingyan smiled and comforted him: "It's okay, I'm very happy that you came to see me. It would be better if you didn't ask when your prince brother will be back as soon as you come."

Huangfu Qian was overwhelmed with shame when he heard this and said, "Father, I know I was wrong and I will never do this again."

Liang Jingyan praised Huangfu Qian, "Well, not bad. He is a good boy if he can correct his mistakes."

This time, Huangfu Qian had the courage to look at Huangfu Zuo. He raised his head slightly, looked at Huangfu Zuo pitifully, and waited for Huangfu Zuo's response.

Seeing him like this, Huangfu Zuo softened his heart and sighed softly.

He said: "Forget it, considering that you are excusable this time and your father has forgiven you.

I'll let you go for now, but don't do this again. Your father is very busy every day, so don't let him worry about you anymore."

The matter was lightly brushed aside, and Huangfu Qian nodded hurriedly, smiling brightly, "Yes, I promise my prince brother that there will be no more."

As soon as Huangfu Qian arrived, Liang Jingyan and Huangfu Zuo stopped discussing those confidential matters and just focused on teasing Huangfu Qian.

Liang Jingyan winked at the aunt in charge beside him, and a cold and crisp voice came out of his mouth, like the sound of a ringing pendant.

"Fang Ruo, have them come in and serve, and bring up the cakes that the Eighth Prince likes."

Fang Ruo is Liang Jingyan's confidant and has been serving Liang Jingyan since childhood.

She watched the brother she served grow up, marry the prince who had not yet ascended the throne, and become the crown princess. Later, when the crown prince ascended the throne, she became the queen.

Fangruo knew better than anyone how much suffering the Queen had endured along the way.

It can be said that Fang Ruo has been with Liang Jingyan for longer than anyone else who has served him.

After all, those who served Liang Jingyan before he got married have mostly left now. Those who got married got married, and those who left the palace left.

Although there were a few others, they only came to serve Liang Jingyan when he was fifteen years old. Fang Ruo started serving Liang Jingyan when he was less than ten years old.

She was thirteen years old that year, and Liang Jingyan was nine years old. Over the years, they had become like family.

Fang Ruo had long regarded serving the Queen as her lifelong belief, so when she reached marriageable age.

Although the queen was reluctant, she was willing to let her go. She wanted to find a good home for her and marry her into a good family so that she would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.

As for Fang Ruo, even though she knew that the brother she served was no pushover, she would not allow herself to be bullied.

But in Fangruo's heart, she still put a thick filter of simplicity and kindness on Liang Jingyan, and she was worried.

She felt that her master was so simple and kind. If there was no one in this deep palace who understood him and could handle those affairs for him, how sad he would be.

So in the end, no matter how Liang Jingyan persuaded her, Fang Ruo remained steadfast and would never leave the palace.

After all, they had been in love for many years, and Liang Jingyan was reluctant to let Fangruo go. If it weren't for Fangruo's happiness, he would have wanted to be selfish and keep Fangruo in the palace.

However, since Fang Ruo refused to leave the palace and said that she would serve him for the rest of her life, every word from the heart, what else could Liang Jingyan do? Of course he agreed, and everyone was happy.

Fang Ruo had a faint smile on her face and uttered a word slowly, "Here."

Fang Ruo faced Liang Jingyan and the others, knelt down and saluted, then kept her head down and her hands folded in front of her in a respectful posture, took three steps back, turned around and left.

Her steps throughout the whole process were light and small, neither fast nor slow, without making any sound. After turning around and leaving, she continued to maintain her dignified posture, walking a little faster.

Because Fang Ruo was Liang Jingyan's confidant, she only needed to take three steps back before turning around.

Of course, the other palace maids and eunuchs who served Liang Jingyan closely only needed to take three steps back before they could turn around.

If someone else were facing the empress or the emperor, they would have to retreat outside the palace gate before turning around. If they were facing a high-ranking concubine or a prince, they could retreat behind a screen or outside the threshold before turning around.

Fang Ruo stood at the threshold and ordered the palace maids and eunuchs outside: "Come in and serve the Queen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the Eighth Prince."

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes."

Then everyone performed their duties, entered the hall in an orderly manner, and returned to their respective posts.

Fang Ruo instructed one of the palace maids, "Dongxue, go to the kitchen and get some crab cakes, and have them make a lily and lotus seed soup.

Dongxue: "Here, Aunt Fangruo."

Dongxue left for the small kitchen, and Fangruo turned around with satisfaction and returned to the hall to serve Liang Jingyan.
