Many descendants

"What are you muttering about?" Su Yan looked at the two children with disapproval.

Xiaoqi quickly said, "No, I was saying this fish is very tender, so my little brother should eat more."

Xiao Fengning nodded in agreement.

Su Yan glared at them and said, "Eat your food properly."

As Dongfang Yi listened to Su Yan's words, he looked at her... and a scene flashed through his mind.

A woman dressed simply, holding a large bowl of leftover rice and a small bowl of chicken, placed it against the wall.

Soon a calico cat came over with two yellow kittens and a black kitten.

The woman said to the calico cat and three kittens, "Be a good girl and eat your food~"

Su Yan saw Dongfang Yi looking at her, "General?"

“…It’s nothing,” Dongfang Yi replied.

Chu Duo looked at the two of them and asked, "Does Madam Su know the General?"

"do not know."

"do not know."

The two people said in unison.

Chu Duo's smile held a hint of amusement. "Madam Su and the General seem to have a great understanding."

Su Yan said, "Because we really don't know each other."

"Your Majesty, I have something to report," Dongfang Yi said.

“If it concerns the Empress’s maternal family, you need not speak.” A clear hint of displeasure flashed in Chu Duo’s eyes.

"I have come for the sake of Empress Wu's family," Dongfang Yi said frankly.

Su Yan picked up her wine, took a sip, and then coughed lightly.

Chu Duo looked at her, "Is Madam Su's throat uncomfortable?"

"You drank a little too fast. By the way, didn't His Majesty promise my daughter that he would tell her about palace secrets? Why don't we talk about that first? There's a proper order to things, isn't there?" Su Yan replied.

Chu Duo's slender fingertips caressed the rim of the wine glass, his thin lips curving slightly. "Alright. Let's start by talking about the Wu family."

Su Yan glanced at Dongfang Yi, signaling that she should leave first.

Dongfang Yi frowned deeply, "Your Majesty!"

"Does the General have anything else to say?" Chu Duo's smile deepened.

Seeing Chu Duo's smile, Xiao Qi sensed something was wrong and suddenly got up from her seat, hugging Dongfang Yi's long legs. The little girl wasn't even as tall as his waist.

"father!"

The crisp, clear voice was like a sudden, sharp remark. Everyone was stunned, even Su Yan was dumbfounded, wondering what her daughter was up to...

Dongfang Yi froze completely, utterly at a loss for what to do with this little girl. "You, you must have mistaken me for someone else?"

“She has mistaken her identity,” Su Yan replied, giving Xiao Qi a warning look, telling her not to mess around.

Xiaoqi took a small storage bag off her neck. "This was a gift from Dad."

It means... Zu Long gave her a small storage bag, so she has to help him.

Xiao Fengning also realized what was happening, but he wasn't as bold as Xiao Qi. Although he also had two fathers, in his mother's heart, both of them had problems and had made mistakes. They didn't carry the same weight as Uncle Zi and Uncle Rong.

"No, little girl... putting everything else aside, with my big, burly frame, I couldn't possibly give birth to a beautiful little elf like you with blue eyes and blue hair." Dongfang Yi said, reaching out to pick her up. She was so sweet and soft, it was incredibly comforting. If his wife were still alive, she could probably give him such a lovely child, right? Thinking of this, a dark glint flashed in Dongfang Yi's eyes.

Xiao Qi patted Dongfang Yi on the shoulder, "Dad, my mother is a fairy. She doesn't have black hair and brown eyes."

"Oh? You mean you're the child of your mother and a human?" Chu Duo asked.

Xiao Qi pointed at Xiao Fengning, "Brother too. I also have a pair of twin sisters, born to my mother and a human. They are incredibly cute and beautiful, and have exceptional talents."

"Little Seven!" Su Yan said gently.

Xiao Qi immediately leaned on Dongfang Yi's shoulder and whispered, "Mom is angry, Dad, go and coax her."

This isn't about being chaotic, it's about not being chaotic enough!

They're eager to set up a stage and put on a show!

Su Yan raised her hand to her forehead, "You might as well just sell your mother."

"Oh? How much?" Chu Duo asked Xiao Qi with a smile.

Little Seven held up three and four with her two little hands, saying, "You need to prepare thirty-four gifts."

"Tell me, what are the gifts?" Chu Duo asked, looking at Xiao Fengning, who was focused on eating.

"Your Majesty, children speak without thinking, don't listen to her nonsense," Su Yan hurriedly said.

Chu Duo replied, "Before me, there are no false words; even the false is true."

Dongfang Yi said, "So, I do indeed have such a lovely daughter?"

Chu Duo: "...Heh, didn't you deny it?"

Dongfang Yi said, "I suddenly feel that having a daughter is not bad. I have nothing to report, so I will take my leave."

After saying that, he picked up Xiaoqi and left.

Xiao Qi wrapped her arms around Dongfang Yi's neck, "Father, can you tell your daughter some secrets of the palace?"

"Of the seven former dynasties, which one would you like to hear about?"

"Yay! I want to hear them all!"

"Okay, Dad will tell you everything."

"..." Su Yan was speechless, and hurriedly said to Chu Duo, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, my daughter is usually quite spoiled and willful."

"It's alright. I'm actually quite curious about something." Chu Duo took a sip of his drink. "Is it really possible for Madam Su to have children with humans?"

"Why does Your Majesty want to know this?"

"I came of age at fourteen and am now twenty-eight, and have had no children for fourteen years. So I would like to ask the fairy if there is any wonderful way to have a child?"

"No." Su Yan knew what he meant, but she refused.

"Why?" Chu Duo asked.

"Xiao Fengning's father was born into the human race, and he has lived for a thousand years." He is human, but not an ordinary person.

Chu Duo understood. "Thank you for your explanation, Madam Su."

"I apologize for not being able to help Your Majesty." Su Yan stood up.

Xiao Fengning also put down his chopsticks and said to Chu Duo, "Thank you, Uncle Emperor, for the imperial delicacy."

"You're welcome. Come and eat anytime you're hungry," Chu Duo said with a smile.

Su Yan took out a bottle of pills from her system space and placed it on the table. "This is a Qi-replenishing pill. Your Majesty may want to try it to nourish yourself."

"If I can have a son or daughter, I will repay Madam Su handsomely." Chu Duo raised his wine cup, drank it all in one gulp, and a resolute look flashed deep in his eyes.

Su Yan took Xiao Fengning's little hand and teleported away from the palace.

As soon as they stepped out of the palace gates, Xiao Qi jumped down from Dongfang Yi's arms. "Uncle Yi, take care! This emperor has become suspicious of you, so you'd better get away as soon as possible. Also, although that empress looks pitiful, she has a resentful aura and is not a kind person. Don't get involved in other people's karma."

"You can even see this?" Dongfang Yi looked at her in surprise.

"Yes, my eyesight is very good," Xiao Qi laughed, then ran towards the foot of the palace wall.

As they ran... Xiao Qi turned into a white mouse, while there was another, slightly larger white mouse and a little blue mouse at the foot of the palace wall.

The larger white mouse had black eyes. It looked at him, then led the two smaller mice, one white and one blue, away.

Dongfang Yi looked back at the majestic palace gate behind him... If even a child could see it, how could he not sense it?

They just always felt like they were brothers who had risked their lives for each other, but they overlooked the fact that he was the emperor. They were no longer brothers, but ruler and subject!
