After the princess was reborn, she kissed the ruthless kidnapper

"Brother Emperor, shall we go to the palace first?"

In order to prevent Shen Changning from getting used to living in An Palace, Jiang Ci'an specially received them in the temporary palace.

He held Zhi'er in his arms, and Shen Changle held Hui'er's hand, and they chatted and laughed all the way.

Shen Changning told them about the major and minor events that had happened in Qi State in recent years.

Speaking of the emperor's uncle, Shen Changle couldn't help but ask:

"Hasn't the Imperial Uncle met a woman he likes yet? If he continues like this... won't he end up alone for the rest of his life?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Shen Changning coughed twice.

Zhi'er, who was sitting next to Shen Changle, immediately got up and brought water over.

"Uncle, the Emperor's grandfather said you are not allowed to drink alcohol! You can't drink anymore, drink water!"

Shen Changning smiled bitterly and took the kettle from Zhier's hand obediently.

"Okay, I'll listen to Zhier!"

He raised his eyes and looked at Shen Changle again.

"The older the emperor's uncle gets, the more stubborn he becomes. I can't control him, so I just let him be."

"Heh... ahem."

Jiang Ci'an couldn't help but chuckle and rubbed the tip of his nose with his fingers.

He pretended to be profound, which made Shen Changning angry:

"why are you laughing?"

"Nothing, the wine is a little cold, please forgive me, my royal brother."

Shen Changle was a little confused when he saw the two people playing guessing games.

"You...why do you seem to be hiding something from me?"

Shen Changning rolled his eyes at Jiang Ci'an and comforted Shen Changle.

"No, why would my brother hide it from you?"

Shen Changle looked at him doubtfully, then tilted his head and asked:

"What about my brother? I've been away from Qi for almost five years. Has my brother been crowned queen?"

Shen Changning drank some warm water guiltily and touched the back of his head.

"In the past few years, I have been taking care of Zhi'er and have no intention of appointing a queen..."

How could this excuse fool Shen Changle?

"Brother, don't try to fool me. Before Zhi'er was born, you refused to fill your harem. Why is that, brother? Why don't you and your uncle get married?"

Hearing her say this, Shen Changning quickly raised his hand to stop her:

"Hey! I'm different from that stubborn old man. I'm against getting married. Who knows what's wrong with him..."

Conflict with marriage...

"My royal brother is against the marriage... but is it because of the matter between our father and mother that he still has grievances?"

Shen Changning hesitated for a while before saying:

"Emotions will only become a hindrance to the emperor."

Hearing him say this, Jiang Ci'an couldn't help but think of what Shen Changning had said when he came to Anguo three years ago, about how the late Emperor of Qi had committed suicide for the late Empress...

He also lowered his eyes regretfully.

He had to admit that Shen Changning was right.

Feelings are the bond that binds the emperor.

However, it is also a kind of support.

If it weren't for Changle, he wouldn't have returned to Anguo to be some crappy emperor!

Nor will I be like I am now, suppressing my emotions and trying to be a wise ruler!

All I want is a beautiful woman’s smile and a reunion of husband and wife…

He could no longer hear what Shen Changning was saying, and just raised his hand to hold Shen Changle in his arms.

Enjoy this moment of peace and quiet, with the wife singing and the husband following.

Hui'er, who was sitting nearby, pouted helplessly when he saw his father's wife getting addicted again.

He glanced at his younger brother Zhier, who was leaning in Shen Changning's arms with a bright smile, then stood up, bowed and took his leave.

"Father, Empress Dowager, and Uncle, I will be eating soon. I still have some homework to do, so I will take my leave now."

The conversation between the few people was interrupted, but Jiang Ci'an and Shen Changning, two grown men, did not notice anything wrong.

He also warned carelessly:

"Go ahead, don't learn too late. The most important thing is to combine work and rest."

"You're not familiar with the palace's roads, so bring a few more people with you when you go in and out!"

"Yes, thank you uncle and father for your concern."

After Hui'er left, Jiang Ci'an and Shen Changning continued to drink together.

However, Shen Changle noticed that Hui'er seemed to be worried and depressed.

She found an excuse and followed Huier out of the hall.

Learning that he had gone to the back garden alone, she followed him.

Led by the palace servants into the Imperial Garden, I saw from afar...

The little guy was sitting alone on the rockery, and his small figure looked a little lonely.

The breeze blew gently, ruffling the corners of his clothes and hair, but he was completely unaware.

The pink little face was full of sorrow, her brows were loosely wrinkled, and her little mouth was slightly pouting, making her look depressed and thoughtful.

His eyes were looking into the distance, and there was no innocence and liveliness that should be present at his age. Instead, there was a heaviness and confusion that was inconsistent with his age.

The surrounding flowers, plants and trees swayed gracefully in the wind, and birds sang happily on the branches, but none of this could dispel the depression in his heart.

He just sat there quietly, as if the whole world had nothing to do with him.

Shen Changle raised her hand to signal the maids to stop, then she lifted her skirt, walked around the rock, and climbed the rockery.

She was taught by her uncle to follow the rules since she was a child. This virtuous and gentle girl climbed a mountain using her hands and feet for the first time!

Bai Zhi and several other maids stared at her nervously, holding their breath nervously.

"Ah, Madam—"

Just as she was about to fall...

Xiao Jianghui, who was sitting on the top of the rockery, heard the sound, turned around suddenly and grabbed her hand.

"Mother? Why...why are you here?"

Shen Changle stepped firmly on the stone with lingering fear, climbed up the rockery with the help of Xiao Jianghui, and sat down firmly before speaking.

"Huh... Mother saw that you didn't look very happy, and she was worried, so she wanted to come and keep you company..."

Xiao Jianghui still felt that it was a little unreal.

His gentle and kind mother... would actually accompany him to climb the mountain?

He leaned on Shen Changle's legs and asked in confusion:

"Doesn't the Queen Mother blame me?"

"Hmm? Why blame you?"

Shen Changle untied his slightly messy hair and tied it up again.

Xiao Jianghui lowered her eyelashes and took advantage of the situation to lie on Shen Changle's legs, seemingly complaining, but actually acting coquettishly.

“If Grandfather and Nanny Yan knew I was climbing the mountain, they would definitely blame me.

My grandfather would say that as a prince, I should act prudently and not climb up and down like an ordinary child;

Nanny Yan would say that climbing a mountain is dangerous. If I fall, I will suffer, and the servants can’t afford it…”

Shen Changle helped him tie his hair into a bun and touched his hair lovingly.

He disagreed with what General Jiang and Aunt Yan said.

“Although Hui’er is the Crown Prince of Anguo, he is only five years old this year, which is the age when he is lively and active.

The Queen Mother not only hopes that you will be smart and clever, but also hopes that you will be healthy and happy, and have fun every day! "

Happy every day...

Xiao Jianghui raised her slightly wet eyelashes and asked suggestively:

"Like Zhier's younger brother?"

Shen Changle was stunned and nodded slightly.

"Yes, like Zhier, carefree, cheerful and bright."

Xiao Jianghui did not feel happy after hearing this, but became even more depressed.

really……

In comparison, the Queen Mother still prefers Zhier's younger brother...
