Chapter 279: Children's Play

(Today's fifth watch, third watch)

The boy snatched the little girl's toy, and the big girl beat the boy. Liu Xie's curiosity became arousing, so he motioned to Xiao Luozi and himself to hide in the corner and watch to see how the big girl dealt with this matter.

The boy was beaten and cried by the big girl and asked, "Sister, why are you beating me?" ”

The eldest girl was actually five or six years old, and said angrily, "Why did you beat you?" My sister beat you today, just to make you remember it for a long time. You listen to me, my sister asks you, if there is no father, would we be happy today? ”

Father? Liu Xie was shocked, it turned out to be his own child.

But I heard the boy cry and say, "No." ”

The eldest girl asked again: "If there is no father, can the mother concubine be happy?" ”

"I can't."

"So you remembered for me that all of our today was given by my father! So we have to protect my sister with our lives! Do you understand? It's good that you not only didn't protect your sister, but you also bullied her! I'll tell my mother when I turn around, and see what she has to teach you. ”

The boy begged: "Sister, don't tell your mother, I don't dare to bully my sister anymore!" ”

Liu Xie wondered in his heart, children have been grateful since they were young, good things in this world, but what does gratitude have to do with protecting his sister?

Listen to the sister again: "Otherwise, it's okay to blame me for telling my mother, you have to protect your sister in the future and don't bully her, understand?" ”

"Well, I remember."

At this time, the little sister, who was about three years old, took the little brother's hand and said, "Brother, don't cry, I'll just play with the toys for you." ”

The sister said again: "See, we have such a good sister, don't you love and protect him?" Okay, let's play together. ”

The three children were happily playing with the mud again.

Liu Xie walked out with a smile, and when the three children saw Liu Xie come out, only the eldest girl recognized him, and immediately knelt down and said, "The child sees his father, you two salute quickly." ”

The two children also knelt down and said, "The child sees his father." ”

Seeing such a lovely second daughter, Liu Xie was very happy, and quickly obeyed them to get up, and said to Xiao Luozi: "One person will be rewarded with one or two silver." ”

The three children all happily thanked in unison.

Liu Xie is a poor emperor, and he has a little money to support the construction, so he has very little money, and these two pieces of silver are very generous.

Liu Xie squatted down and asked, "Tell me, what are your names?" How old are you? Who is your mother? ”

The boss said first: "Daughter Liu Yan is six years old this year. ”

The boy said, "Erchen Liu Huo, long live this year." ”

The little girl's immature voice said, "Daughter Liu Chun, three years old. ”

The boss finally concluded: "Our mother is Concubine Cai. ”

There are two concubines Cai in the harem, one is Cai Yan and Cai Wenji, and the other is the female general Cai Yan'er. So Liu Xie asked: "Which Concubine Cai?" ”

But then he knew that it must be Cai Yan, because Yan'er only has one child.

But I heard Liu Yan say: "Our mother concubine is Cai Yan and Cai Wenji." ”

Sure enough, it was her. Liu Xie asked again: "Then you tell me, why did you beat my brother?" Also, what does it have to do with your gratitude to me and protecting your sister, and even protecting with your life? ”

Liu Yan didn't dare to speak, Liu Xie pretended to be angry and said, "Say it quickly, otherwise I will be angry." ”

Liu Yan knelt down and said, "The mother concubine doesn't allow me to say it, and the sons dare not say it, and the father is angry." ”

Liu Xie sighed and said, "Okay, I won't ask you, you can play by yourself, I will go find your mother." ”

In fact, Liu Xie had already thought of the reason.

Before Cai Yan entered the palace, she used to be the wife of Weitong Wei Zhongdao, and she had a daughter and a son, that is, Liu Yan and Liu Huo, which means that Liu Yan and Liu Huo are not his children.

However, this Wei Zhongdao's health was very poor, and the precious Chinese medicine could not save his life, so he finally left Cai Yan and a pair of children and died.

That time Liu Xie traveled to Huashan, Cai Yan accompanied him, Liu Xie admired Cai Yan's talent and beauty, and fortunately visited her on Huashan, and after that, Cai Yan took a pair of children to become Liu Xie's concubine.

Although Cai Yan is 21 years older than Liu Xie, at that time he was the third beauty in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the first talented woman, talented, and made great contributions to the compilation of "Changle Weiyang", so Liu Xie was very good to her, and also gave her two children titles, Liu Yan is the princess of the plains, and Liu Huo inherited his former title of King of Bohai.

Later, Cai Yan had a child in common with the two of them, that is, the third Liu Chun, the princess of Changchun.

Of the three children, only the third child was born by himself!

The eldest Liu Yan is very sensible, and knows that he and his younger brother are not born to the emperor, so he just said the sentence "use his life to protect his sister".

Entering the interior of Yuefu, after some tossing and turning, I found Cai Yan, who was explaining dance rehearsals with a group of people.

Liu Xie shouted loudly from afar: "Cai Yan! ”

There were several people who knew him, and they hurriedly knelt down and saluted, Liu Xie waved his hand and said, "Let's all stand down." ”

Everyone retreated, Cai Yan knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, and asked timidly: "Why is Your Majesty so angry, the concubine doesn't know where to collide with Your Majesty, please make it clear." ”

"Don't know? Is there anything else you don't know? I ask you, what does it mean to protect my sister with my life? What do you mean? ”

Cai Yan raised his head and asked with an innocent look: "Where did Your Majesty start with this, the concubines don't understand very well. ”

Liu Xie said: "Just now, I came in and saw three children playing in the mud, Liu Huo snatched Liu Chun's toy, and Liu Yan beat Liu Huo. It's normal for children to only see fights and fights, but why did Liu Yan tell Liu Huo to protect her sister with her life? You give explanations and explanations. ”

"Your Majesty......" Cai Yan was speechless for a while.

"You say."

Cai Yan was forced to be anxious, so he said: "Your Majesty is as kind to me Cai Yan as a mountain, and I have nothing to repay, so this is the only way?" ”

"Only that? That's the only way? Liu Xieqi stomped his feet, "Liu Chun is your daughter, Liu Yan and Liu Huo are also your flesh and blood, how can you educate your children like this?" ”

"But Liu Yan and Liu Huo are not His Majesty's flesh and blood."

Liu Xie said: "Cai Yan, Cai Yan, you say this, it makes me feel a little chilled, you mean that I am not good enough for his sister and brother, right, I don't treat them as my own flesh and blood, right?" ”

"No, Your Majesty, the concubine has never had such an idea. The concubine just wants to repay His Majesty's kindness......"

So saying, he began to cry.

Liu Xie sent a fire, gradually calmed down, helped Cai Yan to sit down with both hands, and said, "Auntie, you can't teach children like this, you know?" You're going to chill the hearts of the children. ”

Cai Yan said: "Yes, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and the concubine will never teach her children like this in the future." ”
