Xue Yu was startled. Wei Jingchen was kind to her, so how could she easily accept his things? "Mr. Wei, take this jade pendant back. Bao'er is still young and can be easily broken."
Seeing Xue Yu's panic, Wei Jingchen said calmly, "This thing is worthless, just think of it as my gift for Bao'er's full moon banquet."
Xue Yu hesitated.
Although it was a full moon banquet, it was only held in Qingshuiyuan on a small scale, and naturally not many people came.
I heard the man say again, his voice full of indescribable emotions, "This can be considered a part of my feelings for Bao'er."
Bao'er looked down at the new toy he got and fiddled with it several times. He couldn't help but grinned and giggled.
Wei Jingchen thought that these were the flesh and blood of him and Xue Yu, and the cold hardness in his eyes melted away like spring water, revealing a secret softness.
"It seems that Baoer likes it very much."
Xue Yu couldn't refuse anymore, so Yingying bowed, "Then I'll thank Mr. Wei on Bao'er's behalf."
Bao'er felt as if someone was looking at him, and couldn't help but look over. His big, dark eyes reflected Wei Jingchen's figure.
He seemed to realize that the man in front of him was the one who gave him the toy, so he gave him a smile without hesitation, and his smile drooled on the jade pendant.
Wei Jingchen frowned, a little disgusted, "It's so dirty."
Xue Yu knew that Wei Jing was rich in gold and jade, so naturally she would not see dirt.
When he was about to carry Bao'er down, Wei Jingchen took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the corners of Bao'er's mouth.
Xue Yu was stunned for a moment.
Unexpectedly, Wei Jingchen, who seemed cold and ruthless, was so gentle to Baoer.
Wei Jingchen put away his handkerchief, stared at Bao'er's round flesh, and couldn't help but pinch it.
"It's pretty soft."
Bao'er was stunned for a moment, his mouth slightly flattened, and he burst into tears.
The cry suddenly interrupted Xue Yu's thoughts. Seeing the red mark on Bao'er's left cheek, she felt a little distressed and glared angrily, "The child's face is so tender that he can't stand your pinching like this."
Wei Jingchen glanced at the red mark and then at his hand. He didn't seem to have used much strength.
And since this is his son, he can naturally move it.
Wei Jingchen saw that Xue Yu was guarding him, so he snorted coldly, "I'll be gentler next time."
Yun Jian saw this scene when he walked in. He was stunned and didn't dare to say anything for a long time.
I didn't expect Mrs. Xue to be so bold as to dare to teach His Highness the Crown Prince a lesson.
The prince actually let Mrs. Xue do it without any anger at all. On the contrary, he was... enjoying it.
Wei Jingchen glanced at Yun Jian and walked out of the back room with a cold expression, "Yun Jian, what do you want to report?"
When Yun Jian heard the prince's voice, he quickly stepped forward and glanced at Xue Yu in the back room, wondering whether he should say anything.
Wei Jingchen's voice was light, "It's okay, just tell me."
Yun Jian handed over his hand, "Reply to the master, an urgent report has been sent from Beijing, the people of Zhenbei Hou have been found in Beijing!"
Xue Yu quickly coaxed Bao'er. Although she stopped crying, she was still tired and fell asleep quickly.
Xue Yu put Bao'er on the crib, fearing to wake up Bao'er, so she walked out quietly with her footsteps.
Hearing the words 'Zhenbeihou', Xue Yu paused, feeling an overwhelming dull pain.
Why does she feel familiar when hearing this title?
Wei Jingchen didn't pay attention, and said coldly, "Go and call Wei Chun to the study, and say that you have something to discuss."
Yun Jian took the order and quickly retreated.
Xue Yu knew inexplicably that she could not let Wei Jingchen notice anything unusual. She looked calm and asked, "Mr. Wei, are you leaving?"
Wei Jingchen nodded slightly, "Well, I still have some things to deal with."
Looking at Xue Yu's beautiful face, although her figure is a little plumper than before pregnancy, she is more slender and graceful, and she can't help but feel moved in her heart.
"Wait for me tonight."
Xue Yu's cheeks turned red and she nodded.
Wei Jingchen strode away.
As soon as we arrived in the study, Wei Chun also came.
Wei Chun bowed his hands towards Wei Jingchen, his expression full of respect, "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince. I wonder why Your Highness summoned me?"
After the prince read the booklet, his expression grew colder and he handed it to Wei Chun, "Wei Chun, take a look at this booklet first."
Wei Chun took the paper and looked at it with a heavy expression. He did not expect that Zhenbei Hou Linfeng would be so bold and dare to send people to the capital.
"Your Highness, the Marquis of Zhenbei is too arrogant. If your people hadn't discovered it in time, Beijing would have been in danger."
Wei Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a cold expression, "The Marquis of Zhenbei is always cautious and never lets anyone get caught. This time he was a little rash, which is not like his style of acting. Wei Chun, do you think he wants to What to do?"
Wei Chun handed over his hand and said, "Your Highness, since the Marquis of Zhenbei was ordered to guard the border, he has returned to Beijing every year to report on his duties. Hui Hui has found reasons to refuse, and he holds military power. It has become a serious problem for your Majesty, and it has been early in the court. There are rumors that the Marquis of Zhenbei has secretly hidden an iron mine, but no evidence has been found. Even though the Marquis of Zhenbei has not taken any action in these years, His Majesty has determined that he has the idea of rebellion. In order to protect himself, Hou may have to rebel no matter what."
"The lower official believes that the Marquis of Zhenbei must have a conspiracy."
Wei Jingchen pondered for a moment and then said, "This matter is not that simple. I asked Yun Jian to find a reason to let those people go. Why don't you go keep an eye on them and see what they are going to do?"
"Yes, I will take my orders." Wei Chun slowly stepped back.
Yun Jian stepped in and held a letter with both hands, "Your Highness, Anzi has gone to Xiaohe Village to check on Mrs. Xue. Mrs. Xue was rescued by a hunter three years ago..."
Wei Jingchen opened the envelope, lowered his eyelids, and looked at the letter paper. He could see Xue Yu's life in the past three years at a glance. He frowned slightly, "Why did she end up living in Xiaohe Village?"
Yun Jian lowered his head, "My subordinates are incompetent and only found out that Mrs. Xue once appeared in Huaiyang County."
The emotions in Wei Jingchen's eyes were dark and difficult to detect, "I know, let's continue investigating."
Yun Jian nodded, "Yes."
I glanced at the sky outside, it was pitch black.
It's time to go to Qingshuiyuan.
Xue Yu had already taken a bath, wearing only a thin pair of dirty clothes, and carried Bao'er onto the bed.
If Wei Jingchen saw the child, he would probably restrain himself a bit.
With this in mind, Xue Yu gradually felt sleepy, and her eyelids became heavier. Just when she was about to fall asleep, Bishui's salute came from outside the door, "...I have seen Mr. Wei."
The sound of footsteps crossing the threshold was neither urgent nor slow, but was particularly clear in the dark night.
Xue Yu woke up instantly.
Although there were no lights in the house, the moonlight outside the window slowly poured in, bringing some light.
Xue Yu saw the man standing in front of the bed, slowly taking off his clothes. His broad shoulders and tall body were vaguely visible, and his black hair was wet with moisture.
Apparently freshly bathed.
Wei Jingchen had already noticed that Xue Yu was awake. He stared at her quietly and said in a hoarse voice, "Are you waiting for me?"
