After giving birth to twins, the princess became pregnant again, and the royal uncle took care of he

Chu's mother's skirt swayed gently with her hurried steps, and Chu Xingyao followed closely behind, panting.

The two hurried through the corridor, stepping on the snow, and made their way to the front hall.

Upon entering the front hall, one could see Chu Huaizhong sitting in the main seat, with a white gauze wrapped around his forehead, through which traces of blood were faintly visible.

Upon seeing this, Chu's mother felt as if her heart was being torn apart. She quickly stepped forward, her voice trembling, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Is the injury serious? "

Chu Huaizhong smiled gently when he saw his wife and daughter arrive.

"It's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about. Don't worry." "Father can't hide it from Yao'er, the injury on Father's forehead is obviously from hitting his head."

Chu Xingyao's voice carried an undeniable firmness.

"But who bullied Father at the morning court? Tell Yao'er."

Her eyes flashed with anger, and her small hands clenched into fists.

"Yao'er will definitely avenge Father."

Her words revealed a resolute determination that should not be underestimated.

Chu Huaizhong lovingly stroked Chu Xingyao's delicate face and said dismissively:

“My daughter has come of age, and a wolf has come to visit her. How can I, as her father, allow that beast to covet my 'precious treasure'?”

"Father, are you talking about that scoundrel, the Prince of Yan?" Chu Xingyao's voice carried a hint of coldness.

"Yes, he publicly requested a royal decree to marry him in court. Father was just putting on a show of suffering."

Chu Huaizhong's voice was low, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

Chu Huaizhong dared not look Chu Xingyao in the eye, nor did he dare to reveal the three conditions for choosing a son-in-law.

He told his sweetheart that he was afraid she liked Jun Xuanche and would blame him.

Seeing the evasive look in her father's eyes, Chu Xingyao knew that there were other things her father hadn't told her.

So he stared into Chu Huaizhong's eyes and asked, "Father, what else do you have?"

Helpless, Chu Huaizhong recounted the events of the morning court session to them.

After speaking, he glanced at Chu Xingyao, worried that if Chu Xingyao liked Jun Xuanche, she might get angry because of her father's refusal to marry her and his conditions for choosing a son-in-law.

But at this moment, Chu Xingyao suddenly burst into tears, crying uncontrollably, which greatly worried her parents.

Chu Huaizhong hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? My dear, what's wrong? Do you really like that Prince Yan? Or do you blame your father for separating you and the Prince Yan?"

"But the Prince of Yan is really not a good man, my dear. Don't cry."

Chu Huaizhong's voice carried a hint of pleading.

"Father will find you the best man in the world to be your husband." His words were full of love and promise.

Chu Xingyao felt as if her throat was blocked with cotton, and she choked up, unable to utter a word.

Heartbreaking images kept flashing before her eyes.

Father, the General Zhennan who commands an army of 200,000, in front of the entire court of civil and military officials.

He slammed his head against the ground repeatedly, blood streaming down his face, and knelt on the ground, weeping and pleading.

Her heart was breaking; she could not suppress her anger and murderous intent.

She was afraid, afraid that the tragedy of wanting to care for her parents but finding them gone would repeat itself, just like in her previous life.

A wave of pain washed over her. She tried to calm herself.

Finally, she choked back tears and spoke the pain in her heart: "Father, Yao'er is angry, very angry."

“My dear child, Daddy…” Chu Huaizhong hesitated, his eyes filled with guilt.

"Hmph, how could Father be so foolish? Even so, Father shouldn't hurt himself like this, boohoo..."

Chu Xingyao's voice was filled with endless heartache and reproach.

"There are other ways, Father, how could you hurt yourself like this? Waaaaah..."

She collapsed onto Chu Huaizhong's lap, sobbing uncontrollably and gasping for breath.

Chu Xingyao has always loved to cry, and once she starts, she can't stop. Right now, she's even more heartbroken and can't stop crying.

"What if Father gets a concussion and becomes mentally impaired? Waaah..." Her tears fell like pearls from a broken string.

Chu Huaizhong was at a loss. This was the first time in his life that Chu Xingyao had cared about him so much, which brought tears to Chu Huaizhong's eyes.

"My dear child is right. It's all Daddy's fault. Daddy is too stupid."

"Don't cry, sweetie." He gently patted Chu Xingyao's back, trying to comfort her.

"Father promised Yao'er that he would never let himself get hurt again, otherwise... Waaah."

Chu Xingyao's voice carried a hint of determination.

"Okay, Daddy's precious baby is so good, how can we allow others to covet my precious baby? That's why Daddy was too hasty back then."

Chu Huaizhong's voice carried a hint of self-reproach and determination. "Father..." Chu Xingyao looked up at her father with tearful eyes, her gaze filled with affection and worry.

"Don't cry, sweetie. Don't cry anymore. Our sweetie has grown into a big girl."

Chu Huaizhong forced a smile, trying to lighten the mood.

Standing to the side, with tears in her eyes, Chu's mother gently comforted her, "Yao'er, your father already knows he was wrong, and he won't do it again."

Don't be too sad, it will harm your health.

Chu Xingchi and Chu Xingyi, the two young masters of the Chu family, came to inquire with a lot of doubts after hearing about the strange events in the mansion.

Unexpectedly, he heard his younger sister Chu Xingyao crying outside the door.

The cries were filled with endless sorrow and heartache, like needles piercing their hearts.

This made them furrow their brows, and a strong sense of protectiveness welled up in their hearts.

Chu Xingchi, as the eldest brother, was a calm and composed man. He took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and spoke with a hint of determination in his voice:

"Yao'er, don't cry. Tell your brother, who bullied you?"

Chu Xingyi followed closely behind, his eyes flashing with anger, his tone full of indignation:

"If anyone dares to bully my sister, I will never forgive them!"

Hearing her two older brothers' voices, Chu Xingyao looked up through her tear-filled eyes and saw their concerned faces.

Unable to contain her grievances, she rushed over and hugged Chu Xingchi, burying her head in his chest.

Tears streamed down her face, her sobs tinged with dependence: "Brother, it's Father... He... He got hurt because of me. Waaah..."

"Brother, please persuade Father not to let him do this anymore, sob sob..."

Chu Xingchi gently patted his sister's back, a resolute glint in his eyes:

"Okay, little sister, don't cry. Your eyes will be swollen for your coming-of-age ceremony tomorrow, and you won't look good then."

Chu Xingyi also stepped forward and gently comforted him:

"Yao'er, your brother is here and will not let anyone hurt you again, including your father himself."

At this moment, Chu Xingchi gently patted his sister's back, looked at Chu Huaizhong, and asked,

"Is Father seriously injured?"

"Father, you must take good care of yourself from now on,"

"My son will handle these matters."

"From now on, your son will accompany you to court."

Chu Huaizhong smiled, a hint of helplessness in his expression:

"I was too anxious at the time, afraid that the Emperor would really issue an imperial decree to grant the marriage, and then it would be too late."

"Father is too impulsive... Brother, you must keep an eye on Father when you are in court."

Chu Xingyao's voice was choked with sobs.

Chu Xingyi: "But Father, with those three conditions you've set, who would dare to marry my sister?"

"No, he didn't marry her; he's just looking for a husband for his sister."

Chu Huaizhong: "It is absolutely impossible for a member of the royal family to become a son-in-law, so Jun Xuanche, don't even think about coveting my precious baby."
