C896 Another Lantern Festival of the Year

He narrowed his muddy eyes that were filled with calculation, and said, "Unless you have a way to make this happen."

With that, he began to laugh sinisterly, and the calculating look in his eyes became even more strange.

Ye Man saw the sinister smile on Ren Dao Yuan's face, and naturally understood what he meant. After being silent for a while, Ye Man also laughed sinisterly, "Don't worry, Master Ye, I understand what you mean."

Liu Ruo Qing stayed in King Jing Palace to rest for a full five days. On one hand, Yan Yuan had personally watched her injuries while he recuperated, and on the other hand, everyone knew that Bull Guard had saved Crown Prince.

After continuously raising for five days, Liu Ruo Qing's body was more or less recovered.

Today, Liu Ruo Qing was sitting in the courtyard bathing when she saw the young son walk in dejectedly. Seeing her sitting there, she hurriedly walked over.

"Uncle."

"What's wrong? You don't seem happy just now? "

Liu Ruo Qing squatted down and rubbed his head with a gentle and shallow smile on her face.

"Big sister Xiaoxi said it's Yuan Xiao today. Uncle Wu will bring her and Big Sister Daoxi out tonight to admire the lanterns, but Royal Father won't allow me to go."

Liu Ruo Qing knew that Yue Shuang and Xiao Xi were the twin daughters of her wet nurse. Before Yue Shuang brought young son, she was already an old man in King Jing Palace, and Yue Shuang and Xiao Xi were born in the Duke Palaces.

Since the young son was always led by the wet nurse, they naturally played together. It was very obvious that the little guy was unhappy because he heard that the two sisters could go out to play, but he couldn't go out.

There's a lot of people outside today. The young son is still young, and it's not safe to leave, so you should obediently listen to Father. If you stay in the manor, Uncle will accompany you to play football.

When the young son heard Liu Ruo Qing wanting to play ball with him, his eyes immediately lit up. He wanted to nod his head, but then he saw Liu Ruo Qing tilting his head and frowned: "But royal father said that uncle is still sick. She can't let uncle play with me forever, uncle will be tired."

Liu Ruo Qing looked at her son's innocent face, which was covered with worry and consideration. Her heart was as warm as the winter sun.

"It's alright, Uncle is already well, I can play with Heng Er for a long time."

Besides, she didn't have much time left to play with him.

Thinking about the incurable disease on her body, Liu Ruo Qing's eyes that were originally smiling dimmed down in an instant. However, the moment she saw her son's innocent and tender face, the dimness in her eyes quickly disappeared.

He seemed to be hesitating, and his dark, clear eyes were filled with confusion.

In the end, seeing him shake his head decisively, he looked up at Liu Ruo Qing and said: "No need, uncle is sick and needs to rest more. Heng Er will go and find Big Sister Da Xi and Big Sister Xiao Xi to play."

As he said that, he seemed to have thought of something. Clutching his mouth, he gave a mysterious smile and moved closer to Liu Ruo Qing, whispering, "Uncle, I'll have Big Sister Da Xi and Big Sister Xiao Xi secretly bring me out. Don't tell Royal Father."

Liu Ruo Qing was startled to find that her son trusted his "uncle" that much. If her "uncle" was a bad guy, it would be too easy for her to carry him away.

Liu Ruo Qing creased her eyebrows. She was a little worried about her son believing in an outsider's pure thoughts without any conditions.

Seeing her staring blankly without a word, the little guy thought that she would tell Yan Yuan. He then said worriedly, "Uncle, you must not tell Royal Father, or else Royal Father will be angry."

Liu Ruo Qing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry at his worried and cautious appearance. She got up from the chair, squatted in front of young son and smiled: "But there are a lot of people outside, what if Heng Er gets taken away by some bad people?"

Originally, Liu Ruo Qing had only said this to get young son to give up on the idea of going out. But who knew, after hearing what she said, young son started to seriously ponder while pursing her lips.

After a while, he nodded with a serious expression, "Okay, then I won't go out."

Liu Ruo Qing was surprised that the little guy actually agreed so readily. As she was still in shock, she heard the little guy continue to speak: "Father said that Uncle saved me from the hands of a bad person, and in order to save me, Uncle was even beaten up and vomited blood. If Heng Er was taken away by the bad people this time, Uncle would be beaten up again."

Liu Ruo Qing was both moved and amused by her childish words. It turns out that the little guy was worried about her, so it refused to go out so quickly.

In her heart, she was gratified, moved, and slightly distressed.

This child is not even four years old yet. He should be an innocent and carefree child, but now, because her mother was not by his side, he had become so sensible at such a young age.

Looking at the child again, although he spoke so sensibly, the disappointment on his face was still very obvious. It was obvious that the little fellow really wanted to go out, but changed his mind due to being worried about her.

The fact that she had been wounded in front of him that night must have frightened the boy.

"Uncle, have a good rest. I'm going to look for Big Sister Daxi and Big Sister Xiaoxi to play with."

Liu Ruo Qing was currently in the midst of her low mood, but was pulled back to reality by the little fellow's young and tender voice. Before she could even speak, the little fellow's small figure had already ran out of the courtyard.

Liu Ruo Qing could not help but let out a light laugh, the expression in her eyes was filled with deep love, and in the end, when she recalled the little fellow's lost expression, her heart tightened, and she muttered: "Yuanxiao …"

Last year's current day, Yan Yuan was still accompanying her and his son to admire the lanterns and guess riddles. This year's current day, however, was completely different.

Liu Ruo Qing lowered her eyes, a trace of bitterness and helplessness flashing past.

When Yan Yuan walked into the East District, he saw Liu Ruo Qing sitting in the courtyard.

Seeing that Liu Ruo Qing did not notice his arrival, Yan Yuan walked to the front of her and sat down. Seeing that she was still unaware, he felt a little displeased that she had neglected him.

Pulling down his face, he lowered his voice and asked, "What are you thinking about so absent-mindedly?"

When he suddenly heard Yan Yuan's voice, Liu Ruo Qing was shocked, and quickly regained his senses. Seeing Yan Yuan's calm face, he suddenly stood up from his chair, "Your Highness."

"Just now, I was in a daze. Who was I thinking about?"

He looked at her stunned expression and raised his eyebrows. He had been cheated so hard by this guy that he had to get some back.

Before Liu Ruo Qing could reply, he suddenly stood up in front of her. The sudden darkness gave Liu Ruo Qing a fright, and she instinctively retreated.
