Three months later, Ye Xun really received the order to return to Beijing and resume his post. The first stop when he returned to Beijing, Ye Xun went to the palace to see the emperor.

The emperor sat in the hall, and Qiu Tong knelt down with Ye Xun in his arms, "Minister, Ye Xun knocks on the emperor!" ”

The emperor looked at the two of them and smiled meaningfully, "Flat." What happened to the injuries on the body? ”

Qiu Tong helped Ye Xun get up again, "Go back to the emperor, it's much better." Ye Xun looked at the smile on the emperor's face, and then glanced at Qiu Tong beside him and smiled awkwardly, "Actually, the minister is not so squeamish. ”

The emperor was very pleased, "It is not easy for the two of you to have today, and finally a lover will finally become a family!" Do I need to give you a marriage? ”

"No!" Ye Xun waved his hand again and again, "Go back to the emperor, I really don't need it." ”

"Okay, I won't interfere in your family affairs, you can handle it yourself. Now I'll tell you about your work schedule. You go back to the military headquarters, any right squire. Then the will to appoint you will be given. Considering that you have worked very hard in the past two years, I can allow you not to go to work, first put on your name, and rest at home for a year and a half, when you want to work and when you go back. ”

Ye Xun was a little incredulous, "Your Majesty, the minister... Not dreaming, right? I'm still a sinner, and it's a great grace for you to let me come back early! Are you going to promote me now? Is it possible to skip the shift? I...... It must be a dream! ”

The emperor covered his mouth and smiled, "You don't know the current situation in the court, Feiyang didn't tell you?" ”

"No! Every time he wrote a letter, he just nagged and told me to pay attention to my body, take my medicine on time, and eat well......"

"You can come back early this time, Feiyang is indispensable. He organized people to collect a large number of crimes of the Marquis of Qingyuan, and although the Marquis of Qingyuan died, the crimes he committed were unforgivable. Now he has been stripped of his title, and his family's shadow seal has also been taken back by the imperial court. Now most of the remnants of the Marquis of Qingyuan have been cleared. So, your previous sins have been forgiven. ”

It's time to go home, and when he was about to reach the gate, Ye Xun saw the person who greeted them from a distance, he suddenly stopped, looked at Qiu Tong holding his hand, Qiu Tong was startled, and then retreated behind him very interestingly and followed him.

Ye Xun saw Ruolian praying at a glance, behind her were Tao'er and Xiaohu, and some of them should be new additions to the family, all of them were new faces, Ye Xun didn't recognize them. The children surrounded the adults, running and jumping around without a moment's pause......

"The young master is back!" Xiaohu shouted.

Ruolian looked at Ye Xun not far away in disbelief.

"Wakaren!" Ye Xun called out her name.

Wakaren's tears flowed down at once. She quickly took a few steps forward, hugged Ye Xun, touched his face, and looked him up and down, "Am I dreaming again?" Ye Xun, are you really back? ”

Ye Xun nodded with a smile and hugged her tightly, Ruolian saw Qiu Tong who was cramped and restless behind Ye Xun in Ye Xun's arms, she wiped a handful of tears and gently pushed Ye Xun away, "Okay, don't do this on the street." Ruolian looked at Qiu Tong and said, "It's the first time you brought your sister back, and I want to introduce it to everyone." Don't leave people dry. ”

Ye Xun smiled awkwardly, then bowed his head and said nothing.

Qiu Tong stepped forward and squatted for Ruolian, "Qiu Tong greets my sister." ”

Ruolian was startled, "Yo, what is this for?" What is the politeness of the family? "As he spoke, he went to help Qiu Tong up." Let's get inside. ”

A few people were about to enter the house, when Ye Xun suddenly saw the children running around, so he said to the quirky little girl among them, "Le'er, do you remember your father?" ”

Le'er glanced at Ye Xun's hand stretched out to her, didn't stop, and then chased after the others.

Ruolian laughed and shouted to the group of little monkeys, "Children, stop making trouble! Come and see your father and aunt. ”

Several children came around, Ye Chang frowned, his face was dirty, and he looked like a little naughty; Ye Xing was confused and didn't seem to be in a state, and he didn't know what he was thinking; Ye Le's dark eyes were shining, and he looked very smart; Lu Dapeng is chubby, silly and cute......

"Mother, is this person my father?" Le'er said in a milky voice.

Ye Xun smiled dotingly, "Le'er, don't you know your father?" When I was a child, my dad always took you out to play. Can you get Daddy to hug again? Ye Xun stretched out his arms to Le'er again......

Le'er looked at Ruolian, Ruolian nodded at her, "Le'er, go over and let your father hug you." ”

Le'er looked at Ye Xun timidly, and walked slowly, Ye Xun hugged Le'er, picked her up, and kissed her on her bulging little face. I was reluctant to put it down until I entered the door.

Ruolian glanced at the affectionate father and daughter and smiled, "Put her down, it's weird." ”

"It's heavier than before, little girl." As he spoke, Ye Xun rubbed Le'er's slippery face with his face again.

"Oh, you put her down. Daddy is still waiting for you in the house. Ruolian couldn't help but smile.

As soon as Ye Xun heard his father, he hurriedly put down Le'er, "Le'er, go and play with my brother and brother." ”

Ruolian continued, "Daddy is waiting in the hall, he's a little confused right now. After seeing my dad in a while, you can take a good rest today. Tomorrow night, Mom and Xiaoxiao will come to pick up the wind for you. ”

Ye Xun and his party came to the hall, Ye Shiqing sat on a chair in a daze, and there was a pillar standing next to him. His eyes were blank and he didn't know what to think. Ye Xun was about to kneel when he saw his father, but Qiu Tong hurriedly stepped forward to help him kneel.

Ye Xun knelt down and kowtowed, "Father, Xun'er is back!" ”

Seeing that his father did not react, Ye Xun walked to his father's side, hugged his legs, and sobbed, "Father! Look at me! I'm Xun'er, and Xun'er is back! ”

Ye Shiqing seemed to be awakened by something, and looked at Ruolian, "Ruolian, why is it so noisy?" Do you want to see if the kids are fighting? Don't let them fight! It's time to sleep! ”

Ruolian had been covering her mouth and crying with Ye Xun beside her, and when she saw this scene, she stepped forward and said to Ye Shiqing's ear, "Master, is Ye Xun back?" ”

"What?"

"Dad, it's Ye Xun who is back! Didn't I tell you, Ye Xun is back today. ”

"Ye Xun is coming back? Okay, don't hit him anymore, make him something delicious. ”

Ye Xun burst into tears and laughed, "Dad, I'm here." ”

Ruolian grabbed Ye Shiqing's hand and put it on Ye Xun's face. Ye Shiqing touched Ye Xun's face and smiled, "Don't fight with your younger brothers and sisters in the future, your mother won't punish you." Pillar, why are we here? I've been there for a long time, and I'm tired. Let's go back to the room. ”

Ye Shiqing got up, the pillar hurriedly stepped forward to support, Ye Xun hugged his leg and shouted, "Dad!" ”

Ye Shiqing's face was full of kind smiles, caressing Ye Xun's head and said, "Chang'er is so good!" Let's go out and play with my younger brothers and sisters and Brother Dapeng. Stop fighting! Then he smiled at the pillar and said, "He's the naughtiest!" It's the same as when his father was a child. After saying that, he was helped out of the gate by the pillar.

Ye Xun was still kneeling on the ground and looking at his back, Ruolian stepped forward to help him up, "Get up." Dad is like this now, although he is a little confused, but he is quite happy every day. ”

"Father is so kind to a few children! He had never smiled at me like that. Ye Xun said with emotion.

"Such an adult is still jealous of children!"

At night, Ruolian closed the door and began to take off Ye Xun's clothes and check the scars all over his body. Looking at the scars on his body and face, large and small, Ruolian couldn't help but cover her mouth and cry, "We are such a good person, why did you toss me like this?" ”

Ye Xun wanted to laugh at her, but the smile on his face hadn't unfolded, and he couldn't help crying. Ruolian took Ye Xun in her arms. Hiding in Ruolian's long-lost warm embrace, Ye Xun's grievances and humiliations over the years suddenly came up, and he couldn't help but whimper...... This night, Ye Xun hugged Ruolian and cried for most of the night, venting all the grievances that had been pressed in his heart for the past few years, and his heart suddenly brightened. After the two made love, Ye Xun fell asleep with Ruolian in his arms and slept very peacefully...... Overnight, Ye Xun went from being as cold as frost and unsmiling to the child who could be coquettish and tricky.

Ye Xun came to have breakfast with Ruolian in his arms, and Qiu Tong came early and set breakfast with Tao'er. "Sister, morning." Qiu Tong glanced at the two of them, and immediately looked away and continued to work.

Ruolian nodded, a little embarrassed, and complained to Ye Xun, "Take your hand away." Like what? ”

Ye Xun reluctantly took his hand away, but leaned his head on Ruolian's shoulder, Ruolian couldn't cry or laugh.

After a while, the pillar helped Ye Shiqing to come, and several people hurriedly saluted him. Ye Shiqing shouted that he was hungry. Ruolian said to Peach, "Let the children in." ”

Several children lined up, waiting to greet their elders. Ye Xun's eyes lit up when he saw Le'er, and he felt so cute when he saw that the other children were serious and thoughtful. Ye Xun was about to step forward to touch Le'er's little face, but was pulled by Ruolian, Ruolian glared at him, and then said to the children very majestically, "Everyone saw it today, your father is back." Dapeng, you call him godfather. Today, in addition to greeting your grandfather, father, and mother, I also want to say hello to my aunt. Ruolian pulled Qiu Tong to the side, "This is your aunt, you will respect her like a mother in the future, you know?" ”

"Got it." Several children said in unison.

Qiu Tong's face turned red and kept shaking his head, "No need, sister." Not really. ”

"Alright, it's time to say goodbye. Your grandfather was hungry. Wakaren pulled Qiu Tong and sat on the chair.

The little ones bowed and said in unison, "Good morning to grandfather, father, mother, and aunt, and I wish you good health and a long and blessed life!" ”

"Alright. Remember to eat without saying a word, and go to read in the morning after eating. Xing'er, you have to eat quickly, you can't delay everyone's time. After Ruolian finished speaking, several children said 'yes' before straightening up their little waists.

Ye Xun asked in surprise, "They don't eat with us?" ”

"They were in the East Wing, and the children ate together."

"Huh? Will they play and eat at the same time? Will you not be able to eat enough? When the child is growing up! Ye Xun was worried.

"If you can't eat enough, you'll be hungry, and you won't have anything to eat after the meal anyway, and you'll remember it after being hungry a few times. They're not stupid. ”

"Or, let a few boys go over there to eat, let Le'er eat with us, and I'll hold her to eat." Ye Xun looked at Le'er and said.

"Where there is a reason for children to eat with adults, there are no rules! You're going to spoil her like that! Seeing that a few children were looking at them and hadn't left yet, especially Le'er looked at Ye Xun and seemed to hesitate to stay, she said sharply, "What are you still looking at?" Let's eat! The children departed in disgrace.

"You mother's heart is so ruthless! You can't do that to me. Ye Xun was tired of hugging Ruolian again.

Qiu Tong had never seen Ye Xun like this, she quickly glanced at the two of them, she was a little surprised, and a little embarrassed, so she buried her head low.

Ruolian glanced at Qiu Tong and shouted to Ye Xun, "Sit down!" Time to eat! You see, Daddy is almost finished. ”

Ye Xun saw that it was not their ability to speak, Ye Shiqing began to eat, and he seemed to be very hungry, so he took a big gulp and pulled it into his mouth.

Ye Xun smiled, "Dad, eat slowly, don't choke." ”
