Chapter 427: Still Mindful
The hole in the door was not conspicuous, just enough for Xiao Jue's eyes to peep. He first motioned for the inner supervisor beside him to silence, and then turned his head to look into the small cave.
The first thing that caught his eye was a small figure. His body bowed slightly, and his arms raised along the cuffs were also scarred.
Xiao Jue was a little surprised, a few minutes ago, what he heard was the joy of a child trotting, but why did the child crawl on the ground again?
"Seventh Prince, look at you...... This old wound has not healed yet, how can it be so happy to run and make trouble? The nurse on the side asked a little worriedly.
"Xia Er is just too happy, so she gets carried away like this!" The boy got up from the ground, his face still smiling innocently and innocently.
"Today, although I was slightly injured, it was worth it. Look at me, I have seen my father, and I have left the small wood carving to my father, and I can remember my father's face and re-engrave a new wood carving! Xia Er is still quite satisfied with this loss. ”
The boy's words were a little upright, Xiao Jue wanted to laugh out loud, but after all, he had to give out an embarrassment on his lips.
He couldn't let go of the mystery of the boy's life, and he couldn't determine whether the boy's strong feelings could be given to the wrong person.
If he is really his heir, then he may treat him with some sincerity considering the blood connection between father and son.
However, he could not be easily sure, nor did he dare to face the truth. He may not be brave enough, and when faced with a reality that he is not sure of, he will only choose to run away, or be paranoid and self-deceptive.
Xiao Jue indulged in his own thoughts sadly, if it weren't for the amazing sight in his eyes, he probably wouldn't have cleared his mind immediately.
He looked at the scene in front of him that still frightened him, and then he still slapped it with the sadness that came from the tide.
He never imagined that a child who had reached the age of five would really have such a deep affection.
The image that shook his eyes was revealed as the boy gently opened the curtain of the bed.
There are rows and rows of wood carvings of different heights and sizes. The wood carvings that resemble human shapes, but do not show faces......
Regardless of the technique of engraving, is it similar to a person? The innumerable amount alone was enough to make Xiao Jue's heart palpitate for a long time.
"Nurse, you see, there are many wood carvings carved by Xia Er for her father and mother, but unfortunately they are all missing the reflection of their faces." The boy's gaze first swept over the rows of objects with regret, and then changed his expression and smiled unexpectedly.
This sound of laughter interrupted Xiao Jue's thoughts, and he raised his lowered forehead again and looked at the place where the sound originated.
I saw that the boy was holding a lot of wood carvings in his arms, and his fleshy little face was full of smiles. He grinned, and then raised his head to the sky and said loudly: "Then Xia Er won't sleep today, Xia Er wants to carve Daddy's face on the wood." ”
"In this case, even if it may be difficult to see you again in the future, Xia Er will have a thought." The boy's words are ordinary, but they still have a bewitching power that touches people's hearts, and Xiao Jue outside the door is not a person with a rock-like heart.
"Minion, I have a difficult matter to decide, can you give me some advice?" Xiao Jue's steps had a tendency to move forward, but he still restrained his steps.
He looked back and asked about the advice of the inner supervisor next to him, but saw that the inner supervisor was trembling and refused to say a word.
"That's it, counting on you, I'm afraid I'm thinking too much. Today, I don't enter on impulse. Xiao Jue muttered to himself, and at the same time made a decision in his mind.
Thinking that he was about to leave this place, he turned his last glance back to the house.
man
With immature and smooth little hands, he struggles to hold a sharp knife. His hands were not as delicate as the rest of his princes, and those small hands were accompanied by layers of cocoons and deep and shallow scratches......
This is just a fifteen-year-old child, why can he have such a delicate mind? Xiao Jue's heart once again made waves because of this pair of little hands that broke into his heart.
In a trance, he thought of the rest of his heirs, and he felt that they were not as considerate as him.
Those children were spoiled by the golden spoon and the soft pillows of the high bed, and they never greeted him intimately, let alone bothered to make heartfelt gifts for him.
Thinking like this, Xiao Jue suddenly had a bold and reckless idea. He thought that he would not care about the child's identity and only treat him as his beloved son, but as soon as these thoughts came out, he was easily strangled in his heart.
"Do you know, today the Seventh Prince went to find His Majesty again with no interest in himself~ Hehehe, he is so stupid, and he doesn't look at what kind of identity he is. But ah, it's a red apricot woman, with the evil obstacles of others, hehe. ”
A small voice came from afar, but every word broke into Xiao Jue's ears without missing a word.
Yes, how can he, as a monarch, act on the basis of a whim? This royal bloodline has always been a matter of great importance.
If he directly recognized the child as his own heir and did not verify it, then after a long time in the future, his affection would be deeper, and he would not care about this layer of unclear identity and blood puzzles.
"Okay, it seems that I'm really a little confused today, let's go, let's go back to the dormitory." Xiao Jue's deep pupils sank, but he still didn't enter the room.
"Your Majesty, haven't you seen that palace maid today?" Seeing that his master was standing still, and had no intention of taking a step, the inner supervisor asked the question again vigilantly.
"No, but you can find an opportunity to send her to something else, after all, she didn't do what I told her to do." Xiao Jue's gaze lost his temperature again, and at this moment, he had returned to the determination of the king.
"Huh." The inner prison bowed, and then looked at his saint like a request.
"By the way, the palace maids who heard the voice just now, you can quickly find them! Even if it is really not where I am, I will never allow such a lowly palace maid to chew on the root of her tongue! ”
When Xiao Jue shouted this, he didn't control his voice, but the two people in the room should have thought about each other, and they didn't notice the visit of others outside the house at all.
"Well, the old slave knows, but if you find those handmaidens who chew the root of their tongues, how will Your Majesty routinely deal with them?" The inner warden asked, and his hand led his holy lord in the direction of the dormitory.
"Do you still want to ask me? You've been in the palace for decades, and the palace rules and regulations haven't been overcooked? Xiao Jue said with a little reprimand, and at the same time, he took a step and gradually withdrew from this realm that made him feel disturbed.
"The old slave is confused, this is talking about the prince or the concubine or the secret news in the palace behind his back, and he is punished by cutting off the root of his tongue." The inner eunuch's eyes twisted, and he finally remembered this column, and he said slowly, but his majesty only nodded his head.
With his understanding of the divine will of the human heart, he could conclude that his Majesty must have been disturbed today by an unidentified man...... (To be continued.) )
