Big black round eyes, long thick eyelashes, and a slightly pouted mouth.
This child has a cute and lovable face, and his skin is pink and moist.
Zhu Weizhen's beautiful face had a big smile and her eyes were very soft. She stretched out her hands under her wide sleeves and held An'er firmly in her arms. As soon as she lowered her head, she smelled the faint fragrance of milk. .
It had been a long time since she had held a child like this.
The soft touch and familiar smell slowly revived the memories that had been buried in her heart.
"What a beautiful, good boy."
Zhu Weizhen was so absorbed in watching it that he finally spoke after a long time.
Xu Zhihuai was secretly nervous: "It's all thanks to His Highness."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hands, wanting to take An'er back, but Zhu Weizhen refused. She stared at An'er intently, her eyes gradually becoming greedy.
An'er also stared at her blankly, her brows slightly furrowed.
Xu Zhihuai said hurriedly: "Your Highness, this child is a bit naive."
Zhu Weizhen didn't even look at her, he just said: "How can a child not recognize the child? If we see her more in the future, we will naturally recognize her."
Xu Zhihuai remained nervously silent with his heart hanging.
"Zhu Qingruo."
Suddenly, Zhu Weizhen said her name with a gentle expression and a soft tone: "You are Zhu Qingruo."
This name is also a kind of identity, a kind of recognition.
Zhu Weizhen raised his eyes to look at Xu Zhihuai and saw the tension and anxiety that could not be hidden on her face. He solemnly said: "Raise her well. If you survive a disaster, you will be blessed. From now on, she will be your blessing."
Xu Zhihuai nodded and lowered his eyes: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness."
Zhu Weizhen was straightforward and reminded her: "The Imperial Hospital has said that your body is no longer suitable for childbearing. You should take care of yourself in the future and don't be too greedy."
Xu Zhihuai lowered his eyes: "I understand that I cannot afford the high expectations of the royal family's heirs. His Royal Highness is the future prince, and I will not be the only one by his side, nor can I be the only one by his side."
Zhu Weizhen saw that she was showing off, so he said: "As long as you are sensible. After the crown prince ascends the throne, you will still enjoy the concubine position and cannot fight for it. Otherwise, the stability you finally gained will end cruelly." She said while He said while patting An'er in his arms: "Children are innocent, there is no need to let them bear our disaster."
"Zhi Huai understands, please rest assured, Your Highness."
"You are a smart person, I have nothing to worry about. As for Wei Li..."
Xu Zhihuai bit his lip: "The Marquis and I have broken off our friendship a long time ago."
"It's good to end it. This bad relationship should have ended long ago."
Zhu Weizhen glanced at her again: "The prince already knows a little bit, maybe he knows everything."
Xu Zhihuai's back was sweating and his cheeks were red.
Zhu Weizhen added: "He doesn't care. He doesn't care, and I don't care either. After all, you were just a chess piece at the mercy of others. You must always remember who is the one who really protects you. Who is the best person for you? I didn’t expect that he would care about you so much. He can tolerate your misery. He doesn’t care about your past. He only cherishes what he already has and cherishes it extremely."
Her stupid brother.
But for some reason she envied his stupidity and clarity.
The cold sweat on my palms has been wet for a long time,
Xu Zhihuai had never felt so guilty.
That night Zhu Xuxing dined with her and saw that she was eating very slowly, as if she had no appetite.
He suddenly put down his chopsticks and spread his palms.
Xu Zhihuai was stunned for a moment, then put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at him: "What's wrong, Your Highness?"
"Are you worried? Did you meet the eldest sister during the day, so..."
Xu Zhihuai's too quick reaction made Zhu Xuxing aware of his reluctance.
"to be honest."
His tone was gentle, but his eyes were firm.
Xu Zhihuai said hurriedly: "It's really nothing. Your Highness treats me and An'er very well. You see, she has rewarded so many things, and they are all for An'er."
"real?"
"real."
In order to reassure him, Xu Zhihuai shook his hand and said, "I am confident that His Highness will like me and An'er even more."
Zhu Xuxing was quite surprised by her cheerfulness.
The fingers are clasped together, exchanging body temperature with each other.
Xu Zhihuai suddenly heard the words of the eldest princess again: Maybe he knows everything.
Zhu Xuxing smiled gently again: "The Queen Mother also misses An'er very much. You can take her there to pay her respects tomorrow."
"yes."
After dinner, Zhu Xuxing had to go back to the study to handle government affairs.
However, he still smoked a stick of incense to coax An'er to sleep, held her little hand, and caressed the little fingertips with his fingertips.
After a moment, he couldn't help but sigh softly: "Why is she so small? Like a little flower, like a little bird, like a rice seedling in early spring."
Xu Zhihuai Wan'er: "She is only six months old, so she is naturally small."
Zhu Xuxing continued: "The eldest sister said that the child will grow up soon."
"I also hope she can grow up quickly."
The sooner she becomes sensible, the sooner she can protect herself.
"When she grows up, we will be old."
Zhu Xuxing made a joke, but after he finished speaking, he was surprised first.
"Huai'er, let's grow old together."
Suddenly, he said something else that moved her deeply.
Xu Zhihuai smiled and shed tears and nodded heavily.
"Idiot, crying and laughing at the same time."
Zhu Xuxing slowly tidied An'er's brocade quilt, then took Xu Zhihuai's hand and stood up with her.
The palace people were all waiting outside. Xu Zhihuai put a cloak on him with her own hands. After a few words of instruction, she looked at Zhu Xuxing's back and fell into deep thought.
After thinking about it, she leaned forward gently, wrapped her arms around his waist, and hugged him hard.
His shoulders were not broad, but they gave her enough stability.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Zhihuai pressed his cheek against his back and murmured softly: "It's nothing, I just want to hug His Highness."
Zhu Xuxing smiled brightly: "Have you learned to act like a baby too? That's great. I just want you to give me a hug like this to keep you warm."
After that, the two fell into a long silence.
On the hook moon, the two are deeply in love.
Xu Zhihuai reluctantly let go of his hand. Zhu Xuxing turned to look at her, bent his index finger, and scratched the tip of her nose: "I will come back early tonight to accompany you. Don't act coquettishly, or I will turn back when I walk out of this yard."
Xu Zhihuai was amused by him, his eyebrows curved.
Zhu Xuxing looked at it very seriously.
She had been back for a while, and this was the first time he had seen her smile so naturally and comfortably.
"You have such a beautiful smile. I haven't seen such a beautiful smile for a long time."
Xu Zhihuai smiled even sweeter.
The scene of the two saying goodbye was clearly seen by the palace people.
Someone secretly sent a message to Qianhua Palace, and the message was naturally only one sentence: The Crown Prince and Concubine Huai are still in love.
Zhu Weizhen listened and sipped the tea gently.
When the teacup reached the bottom, she looked at Wei Li across from him. Seeing his stiff face, she couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Are you disappointed or lost?"
