After that, Emperor Hao carried his son and squatted down. He smiled at the little baby girl in front of him and looked at her at the same level. “l know you.

You are Jiang Yue, right?”

“Yes.” Jiang Yue replied calmly.

“l heard that you’re special.” Emperor Hao laughed. “Thank you very much for taking care of my son. 1 don’t know what to give you to express my grat.i.tude. If there’s anything you want, feel free to tell me… Don’t be shy. We’ll be family in the future, There’s no need to be polite with me,”

Jiang Yue didn’t think that an emperor would have such a good temper, so she glanced at Xue Yan.

Xue Yan actually also didn’t expect his father to have such a good temper either.

However, he somewhat understood why his Grandmother had reprimanded him earlier, saying that his father had indulged his Mother. With such a good temper, his father probably wouldn’t bear to scold his mother.

Xue Yan and Jiang Yue didn’t need to bow, but Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin definitely had to. However, Shao Zhongxi still only saluted and knelt down coldly, silently bowing without saying a word.

Only Qi Yin bowed extremely respectfully.

“Everyone, get up.” Emperor Hao laughed. It was not until he saw Shao

Zhongxi and Qi Yin get up that he said to the person who had escorted him here, “All of you should go back to town first. With Zhongxi around, I will be fine.’

“Yes, sir!” Only then did those people mount their horses again and ride away.

Emperor Hao asked his son who was still in his arms, “Are your parents asleep?”

“Not yet.” Xue Yan answered truthfully.

“Then let’s wait a little longer. When they’re all asleep, you can bring me to see my wife.”

“Yes.

Therefore, they went to the old house first.

It was not until they entered the old house and there was an oil lamp that Emperor Hao could see his biological son and Jiang Yue’s appearance clearly.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan naturally also saw Emperor Hao’s face clearly.

The Emperor looked wise and majestic.

After chatting for a while, Qi Yin secretly went to the new house to check if the Xue family was asleep. Finally, at 11 0’clock at night, the lights in the new house had gone out.

After waiting for a while, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan led Emperor Hao back to the new house as quietly as possible.

Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin did not follow.

Unexpectedly, just as Jiang Yue and Xue Yan gently pushed open the door of their courtyard, they saw the oil lamp in Xue Dafu and Liu Guixia’s room lit up again. Liu Guixia was still draped in clothes and was about to open the door to come out. She muttered, “Did she fall into the pit? It’s been so long, why are they not back yet?”

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were calm, but Emperor Hao was shocked. Afraid of being discovered, he quickly dodged and went around Jiang Yue and Xue Yan, rushing to the backyard.

When he was in the old house, he had heard that his Empress lived in the small rooms behind the new house, which was the backyard.

Seeing that Emperor Hao was acting like a thief, Jiang Yue was speechless.

Seeing his father like this, Xue Yan was also speechless.

When Liu Guixia came out of the room, she saw Xue Yan and Jiang Yue standing at the door of the courtyard under the moonlight. She was happy. “Why aren’t you coming in? Come in quickly.”

“Mother, aren’t you asleep? Why are you up?” Xue Yan asked as he closed the courtyard door and pretended not to hear his father’s muttering. His father must have gone to the outhouse and had not returned yet..
