Chapter 270: Father and Son
Xiao Xuan thought about this matter and was so engrossed that she didn't even hear the maid outside the room report that Duan Shaolan was back.
Duan Shaolan walked into the room and saw Xiao Xuan frowning, lying on the couch as if he had no bones, and was sighing with a sad face.
Seeing this, Duan Shaolan temporarily waved away the maid who wanted to step forward to change his clothes.
"What do you think can make you worry like this?" Duan Shaolan asked with a chuckle and stepped forward. "Didn't you take Brother Min into the palace today."
"You're back?" It wasn't until Duan Shaolan opened his mouth to speak that Xiao Xuan noticed that he was back, and she moved her body inside and motioned for Duan Shaolan to sit beside her.
"Well, just came back." Duan Shaolan sat down. "But what happened?"
"Don't mention the matter of entering the palace, the mother concubine is lively today."
"What's wrong?"
"By the way, you and Sixth Brother have been friends for many years, didn't he say a word to you when he brought someone back to the imperial capital this time?" Xiao Xuan suddenly felt blessed to his heart, and grabbed Duan Shaolan's shirt and asked. "Is there anything you're hiding from me?"
"Why did you suddenly wronged me so much, after His Royal Highness King Yi went to Jiangnan for disaster relief, we had no contact for the time being. Besides, His Royal Highness King Yi only rushed back to the imperial capital yesterday to participate in Brother Min'er's full moon banquet, and you and I are always together at the banquet, where do I have time to chat with His Royal Highness King Yi. Duan Shaolan explained with a smile in his eyes. By the way, didn't His Royal Highness King Yi go to report to His Majesty today, did you meet in the palace? ”
"I didn't know what I did." Xiao Xuan withdrew his hand in discouragement and said. "The sixth brother is angry with the crown today, I don't know where to get back a so-called daughter of a criminal minister, and he also refused his father's reward to ask for a copy of her will as a side concubine, so that his words collided with his mother, and even the sixth sister-in-law almost invited herself to the court. He has seen that he is stubborn in all our good words, if it weren't for the fact that in the end I threatened the life of the daughter of the guilty minister, I am afraid that my sixth brother will not let go. ”
"What?!" Duan Shaolan couldn't react a little after hearing this, King Yi's temperament was indeed the most uninhibited among the five princes of Emperor Chu, but such a ridiculous thing didn't look like he would do it. "Really?"
"Naturally it's true, can I still make up this trick and come back to lie to you? Today, I was really angry with the sixth brother, and even my mother was stunned once. Xiao Xuanjiao glared at Duan Shaolan with disgust.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry." Duan Shaolan smiled and hugged Xiao Xuan into his arms and said. "His Royal Highness King Yi probably had a mistake for a while."
"Hmph, after all, it's been a friend for many years, and you're starting to find reasons for him." Xiao Xuan lost her temper and wanted to break free of Duan Shaolan's arms, but Duan Shaolan secretly exerted force, no matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free, and then she simply didn't make a fuss and raised her head and fell into his arms.
"Okay, I'm not going to speak for him and make excuses." Duan Shaolan hurriedly softened and asked again. "So what's going on with this now? Have you seen the people brought back by His Royal Highness King Yi? ”
"I've seen it, but the concubine said that this person is not good to stay in the Sixth Brother's Mansion, and there are many women and mixed people in the Sixth Brother's Mansion, so I asked me to temporarily take the person out and place it in our Mansion." Xiao Xuan replied. "If I don't agree to my mother's orders, I will be placed in the courtyard where Sister Chu lived when she came to stay, and I also sent Dan Tang and Huang Yu to serve."
"Ah, this is bringing people to our house?" Duan Shaolan said with some surprise.
"The mother concubine means that since the sixth brother likes it, although it is impossible for her to be a side concubine, it is okay to be a concubine. However, her identity will be a trouble after all, and I will take her out of the concubine's will, and after the concubine arranges her new identity, I will send her back to the sixth brother's mansion. "Xiao Xuan still has his own calculations in his heart." But I don't think it's enough to arrange a new identity for her, the timing of her appearance is too coincidental, and I'm worried that in the future, someone will find out that we have arranged a fake identity for her, and this matter will end even more badly. So I think before arranging a new identity for her, it is imperative to find out her true origins. It's a pity that I don't have anyone to use at hand, and I'm afraid that if I ask for someone with my eldest brother, my eldest brother will teach the sixth brother a lesson. ”
"Are you just thinking about these things?" Duan Shaolan leaned down and rested his head on Xiao Xuan's shoulder. "This kind of thing of checking people's origins is better than the pennant guard, and it just so happens that I have a few friends who have had a fatal relationship with the pennant guard, and they have no cases at hand recently and are idle."
When Xiao Xuan heard this, he sat up suddenly, and looked back at Duan Shaolan in surprise.
"yes, how did I forget about it?" Xiao Xuan happily took Duan Shaolan's hand and asked. "But are your friends tight-mouthed? Will there be a leak, and will it have an impact on the sixth brother at that time? ”
"If you're worried about this, I won't talk to anyone about it, and this matter has something to do with His Royal Highness King Yi, but it's easy for my friends to only check one woman's matter." Duan Shaolan said. "Leave this matter to me, and promise to give you an answer."
Duan Shaolan accepted this matter that had worried Xiao Xuan for a long time, Xiao Xuan finally relaxed his frowning brows, took the initiative to throw himself into his arms, put his hands around Duan Shaolan's neck, and printed a fragrant kiss on the side of his cheek.
Duan Shaolan and Xiao Xuan are a young couple with a good relationship, during Xiao Xuan's pregnancy and confinement, in order to allow Xiao Xuan to better recuperate, the young couple has not been together for more than half a year.
The burden in Xiao Xuan's heart was gone, and he was also very attentive to Duan Shaolan.
Duan Shaolan turned around and pressed Xiao Xuan on the couch, and he was about to bully him to press up, Xiao Xuan smiled and was about to speak.
The two of them, who were entangled, entangled, hot, and hot, were suddenly startled by a cry outside the door.
"Oh, it's Brother Min here." Most of the clothes on Xiao Xuan's body had been scattered, revealing a large area of snow-white skin in front of her, Duan Shaolan's hand didn't know when it had slipped into her clothes, Xiao Xuan heard the movement outside, and was so frightened that he slapped his hand again and again. "Don't touch it, get your hands out."
Duan Shaolan calmed down on Xiao Xuan's body for a while before he withdrew his hand from Xiao Xuan's clothes, and only lay on Xiao Xuan's neck to continue to calm his breathing.
Xiao Xuan is not like this, but Brother Min probably knew that Duan Shaolan was back, and he still cried outside. The maid and the nurse outside did not dare to come in hastily when they saw that the door of the room was closed.
The nurse coaxed Brother Min for a long time, and his crying did not stop.
"Hurry up." Xiao Xuan gently pushed Duan Shaolan and said. "You go behind the screen and change your clothes by yourself, I'll get dressed and go and bring Brother Min in."
Duan Shaolan listened to the crying outside the door, got up with a wry smile helplessly, and honestly followed Xiao Xuan's instructions to turn behind the screen, and changed clothes self-sufficiently.
Xiao Xuan hurriedly sorted out his clothes before opening the door.
Brother Min, who was rebelling in the arms of his nursing mother, finally saw Xiao Xuan, and immediately blinked his eyes, and the crying stopped immediately.
"You bad boy." Xiao Xuan hugged Brother Min from the nurse's hand with a smile, and Brother Min snuggled into her arms with satisfaction.
Although Xiao Xuan's clothes were tidied up, the nurse and the maids knew roughly what was going on in the room when they saw the scattered hair on her sideburns and the blush on both sides of her cheeks that had not yet faded.
Xiao Xuan carried Brother Min into the house, leaving the maids and the nurse snickering behind her.
When Duan Shaolan changed his clothes and turned out from behind the screen, he happened to make eye contact with Brother Min in Xiao Xuan's arms. Brother Min reacted very face-savingly, babbling and waving his little hand at Duan Shaolan.
Seeing this, Duan Shaolan immediately took Brother Min out of Xiao Xuan's arms, and he put his hands under Brother Min'er's armpits and lifted him high. Brother Min was quite bold, not only was he not afraid of heights, but he was even more excited, and he giggled.
It was easy to hand over Brother Min'er, Xiao Xuan walked to the dressing table, and only then did he notice his messy bun.
"Look at the good things you've done." Xiao Xuan sneered at Duan Shaolan, who was playing with Brother Min, and hurriedly called someone in to come in and comb her hair again.
Duan Shaolan was playing a little crazy with Brother Min, and Brother Min'er's laughter didn't stop for a while. He was young, and he smiled a lot, and there was a crystal of saliva running down the corners of his mouth.
"Don't go crazy with Brother Min." Xiao Xuan hurriedly stopped Duan Shaolan and said. "Don't look at what time it is, you're really crazy with him, beware that he doesn't know when he will be able to sleep obediently tonight."
Duan Shaolan was obedient, and as soon as Xiao Xuan spoke, he took Brother Min and walked in front of Xiao Xuan.
Brother Min is a person who loves one another, forgetting that he was still having fun with his father, and when he saw his mother, he couldn't wait for Xiao Xuan to hug him.
Xiao Xuan looked at the saliva on his chin, so he had to pull out the handkerchief on his body, sighed and cleaned it up for him. It was easy to clean up Brother Min, Xiao Xuan just turned around and handed the dirty handkerchief to the maid. didn't look at it for a while, Brother Min was fast, grabbed a handful of Xiao Xuan's hair and was about to stuff it into his small mouth.
Xiao Xuan was taken aback by Brother Min'er's movements, but Duan Shaolan reacted quickly, he slowed down his movements and carefully held Brother Min'er's hand, and slowly pulled Xiao Xuan's hair out of his palm.
"Why is my son so hungry, is he not full?" There was nothing to stuff into his mouth, and Brother Min suddenly lost his temper, and he snorted at Duan Shaolan, as if he was angry. "Look at the way he looks, is he angry with me?"
"Okay, don't tease him." Xiao Xuan couldn't help but smile when he saw such an interaction between father and son.
