Harem: Luo Chen's Resentment

"Your majesty, the Esteemed Empress Dowager said that you need to make a trip to the Fenghua Hall later. It has been just half a month since the Prince Xian last spoke," the Eunuch Zhang reminded the Emperor in a low voice.

Qin Muyun stood in place and was stunned for a moment. He had indeed not seen the child that he accidentally acquired.

"This son pays his respects to Imperial Mother," Qin Muyun walked in with large strides, received Yang Er who was being carried by the empress dowager and kissed him, "Yang Er, do you miss your father!?"

"Mother, esteemed wangfei …" Yang Er was so happy that he could dance, but he kept calling for his mother, making Qin Muyun laugh out loud.

The empress dowager's eyes couldn't help but turn red. Although her son said he was the most emotional, he was the most heartless. His son who was born half a month ago had never hugged him before, yet he had done everything personally for Yang Er. Since the ancient times, emperors had always been the ones with the most heartfelt feelings. However, once they had a deep affection for the empress, it would only mean that they were extremely cruel to the women in the palace. There were also the two noblemen who had been there just for her to see. Although the Emperor had lifted their signs, he had never touched them. Her youngest son, who was far away at the border, also did not receive any news. Although he was not her biological son, he was still raised by her, so her heart felt uncomfortable.

When Qin Muyun saw that the empress dowager was about to cry again, he immediately shoved Yang Er into her arms. "Yang Er, coax your imperial grandmother.

Qin Muyun didn't really expect a child who wasn't even a year old to understand what he meant. Unexpectedly, Yang Er lifted his chubby little hand and lightly wiped the tears off the empress dowager's face, as he spoke with a bulging mouth.

"Aiyo, haha …" was very happy to see this. He wanted Luo Chen to see how sensible their child was as well.

The Fenghua Hall was also bustling with activity, all of them offering gifts, but in their hearts, they were disdainful. A prince who could not speak was not even equal to a princess, it was truly embarrassing for the imperial family. However, they did not dare to give imperial concubine Yao face.

The imperial concubine Yao simply combed her hair ornament, laid on the bed, and chatted with the people who came to visit. However, she was secretly anxious, the emperor hasn't come yet at this hour, does she dislike this child?

Li Yuan sat at the side and looked at imperial concubine Yao coldly. She wanted to give birth to the crippled child of her consort, so how good could the result be? Very quickly, her attention shifted to the Emperor's newly bestowed Gongzi and Venerable Yu. Ever since the two of them entered the palace, they had been favored by the Emperor everyday, and it could be said that their glory was limitless. Li Yuan was so angry that she broke her nails.

"The emperor has arrived, the Esteemed Empress Dowager has arrived!"

imperial concubine Yao got up from the bed excitedly and was led to the door by someone. She then saw the emperor hugging Yang Er, her face full of smiles as she played with him. The imperial concubine Yao fiercely grabbed Qing Er's hand. Why did the emperor spoil Yang Er so much, yet ignore his newborn child? Her son was inferior to Luo Chen's son.

The's health was not good, but the imperial concubine Yao had a grudge in her heart. She poked and poked the Emperor, who was still playing with the child, so he could talk to the imperial concubine Yao.

Qin Muyun immediately hugged Yang Er, "Wan'er, you've worked hard. You need to help us give birth to the Sage, don't worry, he'll always be our child."

The imperial concubine Yao understood the meaning behind his words. No matter who becomes the emperor in the future, they would protect the glory and wealth of the Sage. Kneeling down in gratitude, the Emperor still has the status of mother and son in her heart.

Qin Muyun passed Yang Er to the empress dowager, personally picked up imperial concubine Yao and carried her onto the bed. The concubines in the palace were all extremely envious, the jealousy in their eyes piercing to the imperial concubine Yao's body. When imperial concubine Yao felt those gazes, the corners of her mouth curled up. Even if her child was not sane, she was still the Emperor's favorite concubine.

The wet nurse carried Prince Xian over and, who was not even one year old, used all his strength to put his head into the cradle. Qin Muyun noticed the child in his arms twisting and lifting him up so that he could see. Yang Er's eyes turned black as he said, "Brother, brother …" As he stuttered the two words, his saliva was still dripping on Prince Xian, causing him to smile. The crowd was extremely shocked, praising the deep friendship between brothers. Actually, in Yang Er's heart, this ugly little baby just so happened to be his little follower.

Being praised by everyone, Yang Er bashfully hid in royal father's embrace, yet when he saw such a pretty and pretty little big sister, he was so happy that he wanted to crawl over. Qin Muyun immediately hugged him tightly, and raised his head to look in the direction he was about to go. He discovered a lonely little girl, "Yong Lin, come to royal father's place." Qin Muyun said softly. He owed this child in the end.

Yong Lin timidly glanced at matriarch, seeing that she was smiling, she ran over to her father's side and hugged her, saying in a low voice, "Yong Lin, these are your two little brothers, this is Yang Er, and this is Sage."

Maybe because they were connected by blood, Yang Er reached out to ask Yong Lin to hug her, and mumbled to himself that she was very cute, Yong Lin clumsily carried Yang Er into her embrace. Yang Er revealed a big smile, and even gave him a fierce kiss on the face. She was even more fond of Prince Xian than that silly kid was, and the latter was immediately thrown to the back of his mind.

The empress dowager took out the gifts she prepared and bestowed them on the three children. They were fair and square, and Qin Muyun made her hand over the gifts he had prepared to make up for the debt he owed the two children.

Seeing how the emperor and empress dowager loved their children, the concubine sitting there became even more determined to please them. They wanted to give birth to a child and a woman for the emperor as well.

"The Imperial Concubine gave birth to the wise king, but the empress never appeared. I wonder …" A sudden voice broke the warmth in the hall.

All eyes in the hall were on Cui Xue, and the words she wasn't finished speaking froze in an instant. It wasn't good to not say anything, it wasn't good to not say anything, she secretly regretted it, if she knew earlier, she wouldn't have listened to other people's nonsense. She resentfully glanced at Li Yuan. If she did not tell others that the Empress had not appeared, she would not have mentioned this matter.

"Younger sister, the empress is praying for the blessing of the country. She's naturally extremely busy, and doesn't have time to worry about the trifling matters of the imperial harem!" Li Yuan stood up and said naturally. Feeling the emperor's gaze on her, he straightened his body even more. However, the meaning in her words made Qin Muyun unhappy, and he looked at her unhappily.

"Sisters, it's all my fault. The empress had already sent someone to deliver a congratulatory gift. It's my fault for not explaining," imperial concubine Yao noticed the emperor's anger and quickly went to clarify things. The empress was one of the Emperor's most sensitive people. Li Yuan was tired of living after he ridiculed her.

"We declare once again that the empress wishes for the nation, so that we won't hear any rumors that the empress is jealous," Qin Muyun said with a dark face as he carried Yang Er and walked out.
