"What's the matter? Why you all look so mad?"
After the two little buns took a bath and Yan Xiaoming came out of the shower room after cleaning himself, he saw them lying in bed with puffy cheeks, then a doting smile climbed at the corner of his lips. Whenever staying with them, he’d only feel quite happy. Xiaowen was premature and sensible, though a bit stingy, which wasn’t a thing, while Xiaowu was smart and cute, who liked covering his mistakes, a total little foodie. But he wasn’t selfish. He’d share anything good with others. Although he often yelled of marrying him as his wife, it didn’t make him disgusted or what, since he liked them from the bottom of his heart.
"Brother Yan, they said you are the seventh prince, Uncle Chu is the empress. So you’d no longer stay with us here?”
The two brothers rolled over and picked themselves up at the same time. The small bun couldn’t hold it and asked. It was true they were still young, but they knew what the words empress and prince meant. From the mouth of those storytellers, the empress and the prince would live in a big and beautiful house. If Uncle Chu and Brother Yan were the empress and prince, they could no longer live with them.
Ling Wen did not speak, only staring at him with that pair of round big eyes, small thin lips tightly pursing into a straight line, and the hands hanging on both sides were clenched into fists, apparently trying to endure something.
Yan Xiaoming couldn’t help freezing there, but soon heaved a light sigh, walked over to sit at the bedside, pulled them to sit on each of his thighs, with his hands resting on their shoulders, “Yeah, my original name is Yan Xiaoming, the seventh son of the emperor, his only legitimate son. Three years ago, my mother consort got murdered by Noble Consort Xiao, and my dad empress brought me to run out of the imperial palace. At first, we hid here and there, until two years ago, I came to Datong town with my dad empress. In the past three years, we concealed our identities only wishing not to be found. But…Xiaowen, Xiaowu, I may leave in two days. You got to listen to Uncle Ling. If there is a chance we’ll meet again, I will never leave you.”
Those words coming out of a nine-year-old boy really sounded so sad. Sooner or later, Ling Wen and Ling Wu would go back to the imperial city to find their origin. But he didn’t know whether he could live till that day. The impression the imperial palace left him was his life was always hanging on a thread. It had been three years, he still couldn’t forget about his mother consort’s appearance before he died.
"Brother Yan, don't be sad. If you don't want to leave, I'll go talk to daddy and father and ask them to let you stay, OK? Daddy loves me most. He will agree.”
A little chubby hand unexpectedly touched his face, kneeling on the bed, Ling Wu looked so sad. Only a five years old boy, only by instinct he already could feel his fear and unwillingness deep in the heart.
"Hehe…little fool, I must go back, this time I won't escape, if they want to fight, I will fight with them to the end."
pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ Yan Xiaoming got stoned there, but then immediately grabbed his hand, with that pair of peach eyes reflecting firm light. And the former sentiment was already gone. He wouldn’t lose, and he couldn’t lose. He would set up a new world for his two younger brothers and wouldn’t let anyone bully them.
"Bother Yan, I’ll help you."
Totally not getting what he was fighting for, Ling Wen grabbed his hand, with that little face stained with matureness and firmness no less than him. Daddy ever said, as long as you set your goal, whether it is right or wrong, you got to hold on straight to the end, even the whole world is denouncing you. At this moment, to him, what Brother Yan firmly believed in was what he firmly believed in. Whatever he did, he’d help him.
"And me, Brother Yan, wait till I grow up, after I grow up, I will go to your home to look for you.”
The small bun said, with his eyes rolling between his two elder brothers. Then he grabbed his other hand and promised so. Yan Xiaoming couldn’t help wetting his eyes. After quite a while, he opened his arms and held them tightly, “OK. I will wait for you in the capital.”
He said with a sobbing tone. After saying that, crystal clear tears rolled down. Who would be sadder than him? He had ten half-blooded brothers and six half-blooded sisters. But above and below the table, they just wanted to frame him or even kill him. But only those two cousins, their appearance finally made him feel what brotherhood meant like.
"Hmm!"
The two brothers nodded hard at the same time, and stretched out their hands to give him a hug. Maybe there were a lot of things they still couldn’t understand, but what they only knew was Chu Yan was their elder brother forever and that’s enough.
The three brothers were shedding tears here, while on the other side, in the wedding room, the new couple was also chatting intimately, sometimes laughed pleasantly and deeply, and sometimes Ling Jingxuan would take the initiative to kiss on Yan Shengrui’s face to get him turned on. And every time, Yan Shengrui only wished he could sleep him right away. Pity the other side was as sly as a fox, and wouldn’t let him get him so easily, like he was tricking him on purpose.
"Well, what on earth has happened that year?"
Holding his neck, Ling Jingxuan pretended to ask casually. Actually, after Yan Shengrui regained his memories, he had kept this thing in mind. He’d just take it as a condition he’d occupy this body. He wanted to make clear the whole story for the original owner. Although, whatever the reason was, he wouldn’t give up the original owner for his misery. The deceased had gone to another world, but the living ones still needed to carry on. Since he had prolonged his lifespan for him, the only thing he could do was live better and take care of the family.
"Five years ago, no, it should be almost six years ago, my imperial sister-in-law got deposed before of Chu Family’s arrogance and bossy doing and Consort Xiao’s frame-up. The closest outer family of Chu family also got disorganized a lot. In order to fight for the position of the empress, those families who sent their daughters into the palace all swelled themselves up for it. At the time, except my imperial aunt, no other people pleaded for my imperial sister-in-law. They all wished to step Chu family under their feet. But they shouldn’t be blamed, because Chu Family had really been too arrogant those years, they even encroached the territory of the imperial mausoleum. No wonder my imperial elder brother would have used of abolishing him to crack down the Chu family. At that time, I was leading troops outside. After I received the news, I immediately went back at top speed from the boarder. And I saw the ugly side of those people, plus my imperial sister-in-law was really a good empress, at least he seldom collaborated with his family, or even tried to persuade his family to stay low. So I made the same decision as my imperial aunt-trying to persuade my imperial elder brother to reinstate his position, after all, at that time, Chu Family had already learned the lesson, and their forces had weakened a lot. There was no need to spare none and raise another more arrogant outer family. And because of that, I became everyone’s target. All big families and those little princes united together trying to kill me. Because I went back in a hurry, so those guards I brought back were not all my own men of sacrifice. Someone couldn’t resist the temptation of interest. On the day back to Cangzhou, they poisoned with me deadly aphrodisiac. At the time, I happened to arrive near Yuehua Mountain. I thought I could press it down, but those killers kept chasing after, so I had to keep consuming my qi, finally the aphrodisiac got into my meridians. Actually I also had no idea what had happened at the time. When I woke up, you already…Sorry, Jingxuan, I was totally unconscious. I didn’t know what I did at all.”
