Shi Fu inexplicably felt that this matter should have something to do with Ru'an, so of course he wouldn't show it in the slightest.

"Your Majesty, now that we have just signed a peace agreement with Mo Cang, there are still so many matters that need to be taken care of by you, so let the concubine handle it."

"This can't be done. You are pregnant now, so it's not easy to work hard. Just now Gao Kun just entered the palace to hand over the paperwork. I have already entrusted him with the matter. It is time to find someone and interrogate him. Old Uncle Wang has given an explanation."

Gao Kun?As An's uncle, Shi Fu smiled, "The Gao Shangshu handles the case well, so it's better to leave it to him. Your Majesty, according to the time, the emperor should return to Beijing."

"That's right, it took a while to buy some items, but it should be here soon. This time, the emperor's uncle has made great contributions, and the northern border will be peaceful in the future. It's time for me to grant the emperor's uncle the title of Xishu. In the past year, Uncle Huang has done enough."

Shi Fu smiled, "When I went to the palace a few days ago, the imperial grandmother was still talking about the peach blossom cakes from Xishu, my father heard that he was greedy, and planned to go to Xishu with Gao Dayi, the imperial grandmother persuaded me a few words before giving up my thoughts. If Uncle Huang and Ru'an are in Xishu, it will be possible for Emperor Father to go and have fun at ease."

"Ever since my father moved to the palace, there are female doctors, doctor Gao and doctor Gao watching, and now his body has become stronger and stronger. I am afraid that he will be bored if he stays in the palace all day. When Aunt Huang comes back, I will ask, If possible, I will do my best to be filial, and only ask my father to be at ease."

Emperor Qing'an looked overjoyed, thinking of his father's physical condition back then, how could he expect to see the situation today and see his second child born again.

Xiao Huan and others returned to the capital as it was approaching the New Year's Eve, and missed Han Yu and Gao Yan's wedding, but Zhou Cang had sent a grand congratulatory gift according to Wang Hao's order.

Before entering the city, the two went around to the western suburbs to see the camp under construction, and then entered through the entrance of the west city, and it was already dusk when they returned to the palace.

Xuegu received the letter and had already returned to the palace to wait a few days ago. At this time, she was standing outside the gate with Xiao Tianyou in her arms, eagerly leading the way.

Seeing the prince's personal guards surrounded by three carriages parked at the gate, the prince got out of the carriage first, stretched out his hand to hug the sister who was wrapped like a rice dumpling, and even put it down carefully.

Xuegu was puzzled at first, then worried, and finally opened her eyes wide suddenly, her eyes fell on her sister's flat abdomen, she was extremely happy.

"Mother!" Xiao Tianyou, who was wearing a deerskin jacket, stared at the person approaching curiously with a pair of peach blossom eyes. After a while, he cried out in a crying voice, and opened his hands.

"Hey, God Bless is so amazing, I recognized my mother right away!" Li Ru'an smiled brightly, hugged her son and kissed her fiercely.

"God Bless, come to Dad, your mother is tired, but she can't hold you." Xiao Huan beside him helped his wife, and quickly stretched out his arms to hug his son.

Isn't this obvious? Xuegu surprised and pulled her sister to look at her, "Sister, let's go back to the house first, don't be tired."

Xiao Huan asked Shi Qi to bring two small wooden swords for Xiao Tianyou to play with, and carefully instructed Zhou Cang to put away the contents of the two carriages behind him, and then entered the gate with his excited son in his arms.

Li Ru'an took off her makeup, took a good wash and changed her clothes before coming out, and sighed comfortably.

"How long has it been, sister? You have come back so far from the northern border, and the carriage is bumping again, are you tired?" Xue Gu pulled the brazier closer and let her smooth her hair, both happy and worried.

"It's been more than two months now, nanny, I'm fine. You didn't look at the carriage. Your prince has laid out ten layers of quilts. I feel like I'm lying on a cloud. Where's the bumping?"

"That's good. With the prince here, I'm still relieved. How will my sister react this time? Is it any different from Xiao Shizi?"

Xuegu breathed a sigh of relief, and thought of the boxes that the servant had brought into the warehouse just now, she couldn't help asking with a smile.

"Except for a good appetite, I don't feel anything else." Li Ru'an smiled and touched his stomach, "Look, I'm hungry again."

Xuegu smiled happily, "Blessed are you, you are good and obedient children, let's go to the front hall, the dinner should be ready, and the little prince is waiting for us."

In the front hall, Xiao Tianyou sat cross-legged on the couch covered with soft mattresses, fiddled with the small wooden bow and sword in his hands with great interest, followed Xiao Rui to play wildly in the palace every day, his little face, just like his mother's, was still fair and tender , is too beautiful.

It is said to hold grandchildren but not children, but with Xiao Tianyou's face, Xiao Huan couldn't bear to be strict, sat down beside his son with a smile, and taught him how to hold a bow.

"Father, my mother-in-law said that I will have a little sister or brother soon, is it true?"

Xiao Huan nodded, and looked at his son seriously, "It's my sister, God Bless will have a younger sister soon, are you happy?"

Xiao Tianyou grinned, "Happy! I want a little sister! A little sister!"

Xuegu and others came in surrounded by Li Ru'an, all covering their mouths and snickering, well, now there is another one who is talking about wanting a younger sister every day.

Xiao Huan raised his eyes to meet his wife's speechless and funny eyes, quickly got up and helped her walk to the dinner table and sit down, with a natural expression on his face.

After dinner, Yi Feng and Yi Xing brothers entered the mansion and reported in detail what happened these days.

"There were also 20 people who attacked the Nanshan Palace at night. The subordinates teamed up with the guards and did not disturb the palace, but there were only two survivors left. The subordinates were handed over to the Ministry of Justice for interrogation. Lord Gao Shangshu and Prince Yan have pulled out the guards from the Nighthawk Pavilion. A few strongholds, and the rest are still being investigated.”

"Those two people are now locked in a wooden house on the outskirts of Xicheng, and people are watching around them, just waiting for the prince and princess to interrogate."

Li Ru'an nodded, "What does His Majesty say?"

Yi Feng cupped his hands, "The old prince has been entering the palace these days, asking His Majesty to thoroughly investigate the whereabouts of the two of them, and His Majesty has referred this matter to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for investigation."

Xiao Huan smiled, "Then what His Majesty means is to leave the matter to us to handle."

After finishing the official business, Li Ru'an looked at Yi Feng with a smile, "After the new year is the Lantern Festival, are all the family affairs ready?"

Yi Feng showed a gentle smile on his face, "Going back to the princess, everything is ready, the mansion has been repaired, and relatives from other places have also come. This year, I will celebrate the New Year in Kyoto, and I will go back after drinking the wedding wine."

"Okay, let's go back today, and go to West City tomorrow."

"Yes, my subordinates retire."

----

The next day, there were sporadic snowfalls.

As usual, a lot of people gathered outside the palace, staring at the concubine who was carried out again by King Huan with wide-eyed envy and discussions.

Li Ru'an sighed helplessly, "Husband, my good reputation is spoiled by you. Now there are rumors that I spoil you too much, which has aroused the jealousy of many women. They secretly say that I control you too much, not a good mistress."

"It's an honor for my husband to be managed by my wife."

Xiao Huan smiled lightly, and lightly touched his wife's forehead with his thin lips, "Besides, why did you ever take care of me, I hope you do."

"The main reason is that you are too obedient. I have no place to manage. If you want to be a concubine or go to a brothel or something, I can chase you for a few streets with a kitchen knife. That kind of management is cool." accurate?"

Xiao Huan let out a dumb laugh, carefully got into the carriage and put him on the soft mattress, stretched out his hands to pinch the bright smiling face.

"Madam is mighty, but it's important to save my husband's life, so I don't give Madam this chance."

The carriage walked slowly towards the west city, Li Ru'an lifted the curtain, and whispered some instructions to Yi Feng, Yi Feng nodded, turned his horse's head and walked away.
