Xuanyuan Rui didn't answer Gu Qishao. Gu Qishao didn't say anything more either, but he could clearly feel Xuanyuan Rui relax. Not long after, Xuanyuan Rui fell asleep. Many years after that night, Xuanyuan Rui never smiled again.
The next day, as always, Xuanyuan Rui woke up before dawn. There was not a single servant in his chamber. He had tidied himself up, cleared his mind, and gone to the morning court alone. It was a dazzling scene of gold and jade, and the grand and majestic hall was empty except for Gu Beiyue, who stood there with his hands behind his back. As long as Gu Beiyue stayed in the capital and didn't take any leave, he would always be the first to arrive, and Xuanyuan Rui was the second.
As soon as Xuanyuan Rui entered the hall, Gu Beiyue turned around to look at him. He was neither humble nor haughty as he made a humble bow and said: "This humble subject pays his respects to the emperor."
There was no need to stand on ceremony outside the hall. Gu Beiyue could even bring his wife around to live in the palace, but within the hall, nothing he said or did could be overstepped. Only after Xuanyuan Rui took his seat on the dragon throne did Gu Beiyue take his seat on the left. They both faced the door and waited quietly, never talking about politics in private. Usually, they were the subjects of the court, and they were the subjects of the court. They just sat there. All the officials who stepped into the hall were intimidated by their majesty. They couldn't figure out what was going on between them, or what was in their hearts. The ministers came one after another, and the morning assembly started soon.
After the next day, it was already close to noon.
When Xuanyuan Rui and Gu Beiyue arrived at the imperial study, they saw Gu Qishao sitting at Xuanyuan Rui's place. He was looking at Erlang Ri with a pen in his mouth, seemingly deep in thought. Gu Beiyue shook his head helplessly, but didn't chase her away. He sat down on one side, and Xuanyuan Rui sat down on the other as well, ordering the eunuchs to bring over the reports.
Gu Qishao raised an eyebrow at them, but didn't say a word as he continued to ponder. After a long while, he suddenly said, "Rui'er, I think I'll have to visit the island myself. There must be a secret on the island! At most, I will just spend a few years and dig up the entire island! I don't believe that I can't find it! "
Gu Beiyue and Xuanyuan Rui didn't react at all.
Gu Qishao rose to leave before Gu Beiyue turned to look with a frown. However, before he could say anything, Xuanyuan Rui tossed a token to Gu Qishao and said, "Godfather, get Uncle Jin to transfer some elite troops over. "If you have to dig the island, dig the island!"
Gu Qishao was overjoyed as he said 'good' and prepared to leave.
However, Xuanyuan Rui shouted out to stop him, and added, "The Dragon Tribe originated from Xuankong, maybe, the difficult task of digging up the island will be handed over to the soldiers. "Seventh Uncle should return to Xuankong to investigate the secret of the Mystic Void Sect's annihilation."
Gu Qishao was stunned for a moment before smiling. He said the word "good" once again before waving his hand and turning around to leave. Gu Qishao left the imperial study and muttered to himself, "What the hell? I almost thought Long Feiye had returned!" You were clearly able to carry a child last night … "
Gu Qishao had accidentally saved Baili Mingchuan many years ago, and had taken him in as a disciple. Later on, not only did he hide it from Baili Mingchuan, he also secretly investigated it from Gu Beiyue and the rest. He didn't manage to find any direct relationship between the Mystic Skies' Baili clan and the Moyun clan. He did not want to involve his disciple, but he also did not give up on this clue. However, he could not find any other clues in Xuankong. He could only temporarily start from the fishing island.
Gu Qishao turned back to look at the imperial study before leaving.
Inside the imperial study, Gu Beiyue looked up at Xuanyuan Rui. Xuanyuan Rui's face was expressionless as he continued to bury his head in the memorial. Gu Beiyue clearly noticed Xuanyuan Rui's change, but he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. In the end, this child was Long Feiye's son. Whether he or Gu Qishao came to teach him, he'd only look more and more like Long Feiye.
At noon, Gu Beiyue wanted to stay and eat with Rui'er, but Rui'er urged him to return. He invited Rui'er to go back to eat with him. Rui'er said that she still had things to do, so she would go another day. Gu Beiyue understood him, so he didn't force him. When Gu Beiyue returned, Little Mingchen was already in the courtyard playing around with a full stomach. Qin Min was sitting at the dining table, still waiting for him.
Gu Beiyue picked up Ming Chen and could tell at a glance that she had been crying. He asked, "What happened?"
Qin Min shook her head helplessly as she replied in a low voice, "I cried when I woke up in the morning, and coaxed you for a long time. Most of the time, as long as I stay away from him, he cries and won't let me go. After eating, I feel much better. "
It was unknown whether Little Ming Chen had heard what Qin Min was saying. He stared at Qin Min, blinking his large eyes, filled with grief.
Gu Beiyue found it both painful and funny. He casually asked Qin Min, "You woke up late?"
Little Ming Chen loved to sleep late, but Qin Min always got up early. She was used to staying with Little Ming Chen after she was busy so she could always be sure that the person Little Ming Chen saw when he opened his eyes was her. Gu Beiyue had always admired this.
Qin Min didn't answer, but cast a sidelong glance at Gu Beiyue, her cheeks slightly red. Only now did Gu Beiyue realize that Qin Min had been tired from last night and had woken up late. He looked at Qin Min with an apologetic gaze. Holding Little Ming Chen in one hand and holding Qin Min in the other, he said, "Let's go eat."
Little Ming Chen glanced at his mother and then at his father. After pondering for a moment, he immediately complained, "Father, mother is sleeping late. She's embarrassed and blushing!"
Qin Min's face turned even redder as she glared at Qin Wentian, "You're the one who's embarrassed. How old are you to be so attached to others?"
Little Ming Chen pouted and said: "I won't stick to you anymore, I want to stick to Daddy! Sleep with Daddy! "
The mother and son duo began to talk about how poor they were. Gu Beiyue reminded Qin Min as he ate. Even though the mother and son were always poor, Gu Beiyue was still in his study at night, so Qin Min went over and told him that she wasn't tired at all. She didn't allow him to secretly carry Little Ming Chen away, so she asked for time for Little Ming Chen to get used to it. Little Nian Chen had long climbed onto the bed, hugging Qin Min's pillow as he waited. The moment Qin Min sat on the bed, he hugged her thighs to prevent her from leaving.
Little Ming Chen was very attached to Qin Min. However, ever since Gu Beiyue had taught him the Shadowstrike technique, he had gradually become less attached to Qin Min and instead more attached to Gu Beiyue. However, when he was familiar with the basics of Shadow Arts, but was familiar with controlling the beginner's Shadow Skills, he neither stuck to Qin Min nor stuck to Gu Beiyue. Instead, he spent all his time using Shadow Skills to travel around the palace, entertaining himself and having fun. Occasionally, he would pull Rui'er and ask her to chase after him, making the people around them laugh. Rui'er didn't laugh, but her grave and stern expression clearly softened a lot. He never refused, no matter how busy he was, he would always stop and play with Little Ming Chen.
Life went on like this, warm and heavy at the same time. It was the end of the year again, New Year's Eve.
The four-year-old Ming Chen looked at the dishes on the table, took a deep breath for the fifth time and said, "Daddy and Big Brother Rui'er, if you don't come soon, I'm going to suck out all the fragrance!"
Qin Min casually passed a flower arrangement to him. "Then, why don't you have a taste of the fragrance?"
Little Ming Chen took a deep breath and immediately sneezed. Qin Min quickly removed the flower, in case Little Ming Chen's sneeze hurt her. She said, "Wait a little longer. The dinner will only start when your father returns."
Little Ming Chen immediately said: "Then I'll go look for them! "Leave quickly and return quickly!"
Qin Min shook her head, "They must have urgent matters to attend to, so just be good …"
Before she finished speaking, Little Ming Chen had already disappeared into thin air. Qin Min shook her head helplessly and sighed, "It's good that my shadow is here. I can definitely catch you and bring you back!"
Qin Min waited for a while longer, but didn't hear Little Mingchen bring Gu Beiyue and Rui'er back. Since she was going to look for Peony, she became a bit worried and went there herself. However, when she arrived at the royal study, she saw little Ming Chen lying by the window, eavesdropping …
