193. Raise a baby
The current residence of Prince Yuan and Princess Yuan is a calm but prosperous town located outside the sea realm.
Seascape City is adjacent to Lifeng Port, occupying a convenient location of time and place, although the imperial court has banned the sea for a hundred years, it cannot prevent merchants from taking risks under the temptation of huge interests.
The existence of Lifeng Port was originally against the imperial order, but for more than 100 years, every imperial court official sent to the local area has adopted a resigned attitude towards Lifeng Port. This has become an unwritten unspoken rule of Sea Realm City, even above the royal law.
Maritime merchants who dare to go to sea and have become a climate must have merchant ships capable of supporting ocean voyages, and the caravans that have been trained in the rough seas are no longer just merchants. Having experienced the treacherous waves of the sea, and experienced the baptism of vicious pirates, the fleet that can survive is comparable to a brazen army.
Lifeng Port is the shelter where these people rely to make a living, and it is the foundation of their wealth and development, and for so many years, none of the officials who dared to fight the idea of Lifeng Port left Haijing City alive.
However, the magistrate who is knowledgeable and knowledgeable can reap a lot of oil and water filial piety, and as soon as his term of office expires, he will be transferred and promoted in a beautiful manner, and he will have face.
Some of the leaks from the fingers of those sea merchants are enough for them to prosper and be rich in their lives.
No one is going to have trouble with money, so Sealand City has maintained this delicate and unspeakable balance for more than a hundred years.
Originally, the port belonged to all maritime merchants. There are more than a dozen wealthy maritime merchants inside and outside the sea border city, all of whom hold the ownership of Lifeng Port, especially the three maritime merchants are the most powerful and the most powerful, in the struggle for more than a hundred years, but no one has been able to completely suppress the other two.
This three-legged situation was completely dismantled by a teenager more than a decade ago.
The mysterious boy who was born out of thin air knocked the three most powerful maritime merchants into the dust in one fell swoop with lightning speed, and there was no power to fight back.
And Port Lifeng has finally ushered in its first true owner.
The layers of canvas were gradually retracted, and the big ship slowly docked in the dock.
Xiao Yu followed Xie Jingxiu out of the cabin, and Leng Buding was startled by the grand occasion of a group of people standing solemnly on the dock.
As soon as Xie Jingxiufu appeared, a young man dressed in brocade clothes on the dock took a few steps forward politely, leaned over and saluted, "Welcome Your Highness!" I don't know that His Royal Highness left the island here today, and greeted him in a hurry, and he looked at His Highness Haihan if he was not thoughtful. ”
Xiao Yu saw that the man was dressed richly and was not like an ordinary servant subordinate, but he was so respectful and courteous to Xie Jingxiu, but he didn't know what his identity was.
Xie Jingxiu's face was still faint, and he just nodded lightly, noncommittal.
Xiao Yu saw that the young man had a trace of nervousness on his face, as if he was very afraid of Xie Jingxiu's appearance.
"Your Highness wants to go back to the house for a while? Although His Royal Highness does not often live in the mansion in the city, his subordinates do not dare to be negligent for a moment, and have always ordered people to take care of it carefully and greet His Highness at all times. ”
Xie Jingxiu said: "No. Take someone down and don't have to come near to wait. ”
The young man reluctantly left the dock with a group of men. Xiao Yu looked at his demeanor, in addition to being a little too humble when facing Xie Jingxiu, he was quite imposing when commanding those servants, and he should also be a person who has been in the top position for a long time.
"Who's that?" Xiao Yu was curious, "Why are you so afraid of you?" ”
Xie Jingxiu took his hand, put it in his palm and squeezed it.
"There is also kung fu to care about other men, it seems that this king did not work hard enough last night."
Xiao Yu was embarrassed.
His Royal Highness King Rui likes to play some vulgar and outdated romance scenes from time to time, which makes people don't know how to deal with it.
If His Royal Highness King Rui could go online, he would probably take a screen name such as "Cold Moon Lone Star......
Although the young man had left, the dock had already prepared a luxury carriage. Xie Jingxiu pulled Xiao Yu into the carriage, and a team of personal guards got a tall horse like a trick, and guarded the carriage in the encirclement.
The qiē was completed very quickly and neatly, and Xie Jingxiu commanded: "But Yuqiao Town." ”
Yuqiao Town is the town where Prince Yuan and Princess Yuan live now.
From the time he got off the ship, along the way, Xiao Yu found that Xie Jingxiu's control over the maritime forces in Lifeng Port and Sea Realm City was much stronger than he had previously thought.
In front of Xie Jingxiu, I was afraid that the prefect of this Sea Realm City would also retreat.
No wonder the imperial court always tried to send people to fight Nameless Island and Xie Jingxiu's idea.
The carriage drove all the way unhurriedly, and an hour later they arrived at the destination of the two of them this time, Yuqiao Town.
I don't know who informed Prince Yuan and Princess Yuan, Xiao Yu and Xie Jingxiu got out of the carriage and saw that the two of them were already waiting by the gate with a group of servants.
As soon as she saw Xie Jingxiu appear, Princess Yuan couldn't help it, her face showed a little longing and eagerness, and she was barely excited and ran over after being supported by the maidservant, just looking at Xie Jingxiu with a greedy face, looking at this eldest son who had been ignored by her for more than ten years.
Xie Jingxiu took Xiao Yu forward, Yuan Wangye's face was a little uncomfortable, his eyes swept over Xiao Yu's face, coughed lightly twice, and said, "It's good that you are safe, go in quickly." ”
After speaking, he helped Princess Yuan, surrounded by a group of maids and subordinates, and walked to the courtyard together.
This house was also bought by Xie Jingxiu with money, it was originally the residence of a wealthy family in the town, and now it was bought out by him at a high price, and it was also newly decorated, and all kinds of ornaments were arranged with great thought, and the whole house was decorated rich and elegant.
It seems that Prince Yuan and Princess Yuan are now more leisurely than before.
Xiao Yu watched it with relish, but Xie Jingxiu didn't squint, and several people went all the way into the living room, Xie Jingxiu said straight to the point: "I heard that my younger brother is already full moon, and this king came today to prepare to take the child to the island to raise him personally." ”
It's not a negotiating tone at all.,Just a dry informant attitude.。
Xiao Yu looked at the faces of Prince Yuan and Princess Yuan, both of them were a little stunned, and at this time, they looked at each other head-on, but they couldn't tell whether they were willing or unwilling.
It's just that Princess Yuan's advanced maternal age gave birth to such a young son, how could she be willing to let people take it away......
But he saw that Prince Yuan looked at Xie Jingxiu cautiously: "Jingxiu, how could you think of taking your younger brother to raise it yourself?" Princess Yuan's eyes involuntarily slipped around Xiao Yu's body.
Xiao Yu was extremely depressed. This unkind decision was completely Xie Jingxiu's own thoughts, and it had nothing to do with him, but looking at Princess Yuan's appearance, she seemed to suspect that he was teasing.
Xiao Yu glared at Xie Jingxiu, blaming this guy. Usually he doesn't like children at all, Xie Che and Song Chaoyan are so cute children, he dislikes them in various ways, and now it seems that he still wants a child in his heart, otherwise why would he come to rob this younger brother who can be his son?
Xie Jingxiu said: "You don't have to look at Yu'er, this is my idea." My father and mother were only afraid of being impatient to educate their children, and he couldn't learn anything in this town, and it was unknown whether he would have some future with me. ”
Prince Yuan's heart moved, and he looked at Princess Yuan.
I thought that the father-son relationship between the husband and wife and their son had been exhausted, but I didn't expect that he was willing to raise his younger brother in person.
If this is the case, then it will always be a family that cannot be separated, and there will be no day when there is no ice release?
Princess Yuan didn't seem to think so much, her simple and extremely emotional brain couldn't think too far away, but she felt that the eldest son was still willing to be angry and talk to her, and was willing to call her mother, she already felt flattered, and she didn't know what to do.
"Okay, good, Jing Xiu is right, and my mother doesn't understand it very well, so it's naturally best for your brother to follow you."
Princess Yuan said again and again, looking like she couldn't please her.
Xiao Yu was surprised for a moment.
In the past, Princess Yuan always held a shelf that was colder than Xie Jingxiu, but now there is no trace of that bit of reserve, and the flattery is so obvious and so eager, for fear that there is a word that does not match Xie Jingxiu's mind and makes him unhappy.
Xie Jingxiu was unimpressed by Princess Yuan's courteous attitude, and his face was always indifferent.
He didn't show a cold face anymore, Princess Yuan was already very satisfied, and she didn't care about her son's coldness at all.
"In this case, I will take my younger brother away today, and the second elder will also return to the island with the ship." Xie Jing cultivated.
Princess Yuan was overjoyed in an instant.
Back on the island, her son is willing to take her to the island to live with her!
"Okay, okay, back to the island, back to the island. My mother has not been idle in the past two years, she learned some dishes, and when she arrived on the island, her mother cooked them for Jing Xiu to eat. ”
In fact, she also made clothes for Xie Jingxiu with the maid, at that time, she just thought that her son was thinking about it tightly, so she thought about her son's figure and did some needlework, so that she could feel a little comforted in her heart.
Now that she saw the real person, Princess Yuan didn't dare to take it out, for fear that Xie Jingxiu would dislike it and be unwilling to accept it, and even the hard-won harmonious atmosphere was broken.
Prince Yuan and Princess Yuan are now completely looking like Xie Jingxiu as the sky, even the newly-born son is standing aside, and his attitude towards Xiao Yu is very good, and Princess Yuan is even more like taking Xiao Yu as a daughter-in-law, which makes Xiao Yu uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Xie Jingxiu didn't delay for too long, and immediately asked people to pack up their things, and on the same day, he took Yuan Wangye and his wife and the newborn baby into the carriage, ready to board the boat and return to the island.
Prince Yuan and Princess Yuan took another carriage, and the baby was placed in Xie Jingxiu's car, and the two of them did not have any opinions.
Xie Jingxiu put the baby in Xiao Yu's arms, and said with a disgusted face: "You hold it." ”
Xiao Yu looked at his expression and was speechless.
It's obvious that I robbed it myself, what kind of trouble is it to be so disgusted? Since you don't like this baby, why do you have to take it back and raise it yourself? His Royal Highness King Rui is getting more and more awkward.
