Little Shangguan Yu followed suit and drooled all over her face.
The entire Kunning Palace echoed with the laughter of the mother and son.
The scene flashed. They were still in Kunning Palace. At that time, Song Li had gone from an ignorant girl to a dignified and gentle empress. She was also pregnant with her own child.
The three-year-old Shangguan Yu ran in crying. “Mother, why did Eldest
Brother say that I didn’t come out of your stomach? Are you still my mother?”
Song Li pulled the little child into her arms and carefully wiped the tears off his face with a handkerchief. She said gently, “Yu’er, remember this. Whether you’re my biological child or not, you’re still my child.”
Little Shangguan Yu sniffed and asked, “Is it the same as the brother in your stomach?”
Song Li handed the handkerchief to Su Yun and rubbed Little Shangguan Yu’s head. “Of course. You’re the most important person to me, just like him.”
Su Yun smiled and said, “Her Majesty, look. Even His Highness said that the child in your stomach is a little prince. I can’t be wrong.”
Song Li didn’t really care if it was a boy or a girl, but she still asked cooperatively, “Yu’er, do you want a younger brother or sister?”
Little Shangguan Yu stopped crying. He raised his chin and patted his chest. “A brother, Yu’er can protect him in the future.”
Big Brother always told him that he was about to have a younger brother, so lwanted one too!
“Alright. Yu’er, protect your brother. Mother will protect the both of you.”
Little Shangguan Yu frowned. “Then wouldn’t it be hard on Mother? It’s bettel for Yu’er to protect Mother.”
“What about your brother?” Song Li teased.
Little Shangguan Yu was stumped by the question. He thought for a long time before saying, “Yu’er has grown up and can protect two people. Mother is so
silly.”
Song Li was amused by his vexed expression. She hugged him and kissed him
The three-year-old child who ran back crying soon fell asleep in Song Li’s arms.
After instructing the nanny to carry the little child to his room, Song Li instantly stopped smiling and said coldly, “Go and find out where Imperial Concubine Liu is.’
She couldn’t argue with a child, so she could only find trouble with the child’s mother.
Su Yun glanced at her bulging stomach and hesitated for a long time. Thinkin of her young lady’s temper, she went out to ask around.
Imperial Concubine Liu was also pregnant at that time, so Song Li did not go overboard. She only reprimanded her and grounded her.
Unexpectedly, the arrogant Imperial Concubine Liu was so angry that she had a miscarriage. She gave birth to a son prematurely.
Because of the power of the Bulwark Duke’s residence, the emperor only dared to punish her by grounding her for half a month.
Song Li issued a gag order to prevent these things from reaching Little Shangguan Yu’s ears.
A month later, Song Li really gave birth to a son.
Hearing this good news, Little Shangguan Yu was extremely happy. He ignored the palace servants’ obstruction and ran back to Kunning Palace.
He ran until his face was red. When he fell, he got up on his own. By the time he reached the entrance of Kunning Palace, he had already turned into a little mud monkey.
The Kunning Palace was very lively. The concubines of the various palaces were already waiting here. The emperor also sent a eunuch to announce the decree immediately. The little prince was conferred the title of crown prince.
He did not know what the crown prince was, but seeing that everyone was so happy, he was also happy for his mother and brother, who he had yet to meet.
Since they could not see the empress, everyone surrounded the servants of
Kunning Palace and chatted festively. No one realized that he had returned.
Little Shangguan Yu stood at the entrance of Kunning Palace and suddenly felt a little aggrieved.
He lowered his head and realized that his palm had been scraped.
He wanted to tell his mother. Her heart would definitely ache for him and she would carefully apply the medicine for him.
Little Shangguan Yu prepared to slip into the palace.
Su Yun’s sharp eyes noticed him. “Your Highness, Her Majesty has just given birth to a younger brother and is tired. You can’t go in and disturb her.”
Since his mother was tired, he could not let her discover that he was injured. Otherwise, she would definitely not be able to rest peacefully.
Little Shangguan Yu quickly hid his hand behind his back and blinked his watery eyes. “Then Aunt Su Yun, can I go and see Brother?”
“No, Brother is also asleep.” Looking at the people entering and leaving, Su Yun summoned a eunuch and instructed, “Send His Second Highness back to the upper study.”
She made this arrangement because she was worried that there would be too many people and the palace servants would not be able to take care of him.
However, in Little Shangguan Yu’s opinion, Aunt Su Yun, who had always doted on him, could not even see that he was dirty. She even wanted to chase him away.
He did not want to go back. He shook off the palace maid’s hand and ran away, hiding in the rockery alone..
