The Pretty Wife of General Jinxiu Huanian

Chapter 67 The Prince is Touched

It was a sunny day, and the golden sunlight shone through the window lattice, shining brightly on Yunxi and Jinxuan.

Yunxi, dressed in plain clothes, was humming a little tune, coaxing Jinxuan to sleep. The little fellow was in his mother's warm embrace, his hands tightly clutching the corner of Yunxi's clothes, a sweet smile on his lips, his face rosy like a ripe apple.

After finishing his government affairs, the prince hurried towards Yunxi's residence. Before he even stepped into the room, he heard Yunxi's gentle singing.

The prince hurriedly slowed down his pace, not even daring to breathe, for fear of disturbing this warm scene.

The prince walked into the house quietly, stood aside, and looked at Yunxi and the child without blinking.

As for Yunxi, she stared at Jinxuan intently without moving her eyes. Her eyes were full of tenderness and love, and she was completely fixed there, as if they were the only two mother and son left in the world.

The prince's body was trembling slightly, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back.

He just stared blankly, his eyes slowly turning red. After a long while, the prince took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice, "Yunxi, thank you for your hard work."

Yunxi heard the voice and turned around, a faint smile appeared on her face, and said, "Prince, you are here."

The prince leaned forward, reached out and gently touched Jinxuan's face, and said, "This child is so handsome."

Yunxi responded happily: "Of course, don't you see whose child it is?" The prince looked at Yunxi with eyes full of pity.

The prince's eyes gradually became moist. He thought of the pain Yunxi experienced during childbirth, and his heart was filled with emotion and pity.

"Yunxi..." the prince called softly.

The prince was dressed in a dark-patterned brocade robe, with a jade belt around his waist, and stood tall and straight. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a resolute face, but at this moment his eyes were filled with tenderness.

Yunxi raised her head when she heard the voice, and saw the prince, and smiled slightly, "The prince is here." Yunxi was not wearing any makeup today, and her hair was simply tied into a bun, but it made her look more gentle.

Her eyebrows and eyes are curved like crescent moons, which makes people feel comfortable when looking at them.

The prince walked over to Yunxi and sat down. He reached out and gently touched Jinxuan's face. "This child is growing up so fast."

As he spoke, the corners of the prince's mouth rose, his face filled with joy.

Yunxi nodded and said, "Yes, every time I look at him, I feel there are new changes in him." As Yunxi spoke, she stared at Jinxuan in her arms, her eyes full of doting.

The prince held Yunxi's hand and said, "Yunxi, you have worked hard these days." The prince's hand was large and warm, and he held Yunxi's slender hand tightly.

Yunxi shook her head and said, "I don't feel it's hard to give birth to this child for the prince." Yunxi's face was firm, and her eyes were clear and bright.

The prince's eyes were filled with affection, "Having you and your child is the greatest blessing in this life."

The prince said this, his voice trembling slightly.

As he spoke, the prince couldn't help but shed tears.

Yunxi was a little surprised and hurriedly wiped away the prince's tears with a handkerchief. "What's wrong with the prince?" Yunxi's movements were gentle, and her eyes were full of concern.

The prince held Yunxi's hand and said, "Seeing you take such good care of the child, I am deeply moved."

The prince held Yunxi's hand tighter, and his eyes were reluctant to leave Yunxi for a moment.

Yunxi smiled and said, "Your Highness, please don't be like this. This is what I should do." A blush appeared on Yunxi's face, and she looked down at the child in her arms.

At this moment, Jinxuan moved, his little mouth pursed, and he seemed to be waking up. Yunxi patted him gently and coaxed him softly, "Good boy, don't wake up, go back to sleep."

The sound was so soft that it seemed as if water could drip out.

The prince watched Yunxi's skillful movements, and his heart was filled with emotion. He thought that Yunxi had worked day and night since she had this child, but she had never complained.

I have been busy in the court, and it is all thanks to Yunxi that I can have such a warm scene when I return home.

"Yunxi, I will definitely spend more time with you and the children in the future." The prince said seriously.

Yunxi looked up at the prince, her eyes filled with joy: "As long as the prince has this heart, I am satisfied."

The prince sighed and said, "I have neglected you and the child these days, but I will never do that again."

Yunxi gently leaned on the prince's shoulder: "Prince, please don't say that. I know that you are very busy."

The prince patted Yunxi's shoulder and said, "I will make sure everything is arranged so that you and your son can live a peaceful life."

Yunxi nodded: "I believe in you, Your Majesty."

The prince looked at Yunxi with a serious face: "Yunxi, I will treat you twice as well in the future." The prince said firmly.

Yunxi looked at the prince, her eyes filled with happiness, "As long as I can be with the prince and our child, I will be content."

As he was speaking, Jinxuan woke up. His little head shook, and he looked at the prince and Yunxi with his big round eyes, making a "babbling" sound.

The little face is rosy like a ripe apple.

The prince and Yunxi smiled at each other. Yunxi quickly picked up Jinxuan and said softly, "Jinxuan, come here, let daddy hold you."

After saying that, she carefully handed Jinxuan into the prince's arms.

The prince stretched out his hands, his movements very cautiously, as if he was holding a rare treasure, and carefully took Jinxuan.

Jinxuan was in the prince's arms, but he was restless. He waved his little hands, kicked his legs, and laughed.

"This child is so naughty." The prince said with a smile, his face full of kindness, and rubbed his chin against Jinxuan's little face.

Yunxi looked at the prince and Jinxuan, her face filled with a happy smile, and she didn't dare to blink.

At this time, the maid came in to report that the wife of the marquis had arrived.

Yunxi and the prince looked at each other. The prince frowned and said, "Let her in."

The Marquis's wife walked in, her waist twisting, the pearls and jade on her hair jingling. She had a smile on her face, but it looked fake. "Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations, Princess! This little boy is so adorable."

As he said this, he moved forward and wanted to touch Jinxuan.

The prince moved his body to the side, blocking her hand, and said lightly, "Thank you for your concern, Madam."

The wife of the Marquis did not feel embarrassed and said a few flattering words, saying that the young master would definitely have a great future and that the prince and princess were so blessed.

Yunxi just smiled and didn't say anything.

The wife of the Marquis talked for a long time, but when no one responded, she left in embarrassment.

After the Marquis's wife left, the prince's face darkened, his brows knitted tightly, "I wonder what this Marquis's wife is up to now."

Yunxi walked forward, gently smoothed the wrinkles between the prince's brows, and said, "Don't be angry, prince. She has always been like this. Let's just ignore her."

The prince snorted, "I know her intentions very well. She just wants to gain some benefits from me."

Yunxi held the prince's hand and said, "Prince, there's no need to get angry over her. It's not worth getting yourself hurt by getting angry."

The prince sighed, "I'm just tired of her expression."

Yunxi smiled and said, "Your Highness, let's live our lives well and not let irrelevant people disturb our mood."

The prince nodded, "You are really insightful."

Yunxi looked at Jinxuan again and said, "Our Jinxuan, you must not imitate these people in the future."

The prince lifted Jinxuan higher and said, "Our son will definitely be an upright man in the future."

Yunxi took Jinxuan and coaxed him, "Jinxuan, be good. Grow up quickly and protect mommy with daddy."

The prince hugged Yunxi and Jinxuan, "With you by my side, I have no worries."

Yunxi leaned in the prince's arms, "As long as our family stays like this, I will be satisfied."

The prince said firmly: "I will definitely protect you."

Yunxi said, "Your Highness, don't worry about it. As long as our family of three is well, nothing else matters."

The prince nodded, "Yunxi is right."

One day, Yunxi felt a little tired, and her face looked a little weary, so she left Jinxuan to the care of the wet nurse and took a nap.

That look makes people feel distressed.

The prince looked at the sleeping Yunxi, his eyes full of pity, and gently covered her with a quilt, fearing that any rough movement would disturb her sweet dream.

Then, the prince tiptoed out of the house and came to the yard.

In the yard, several maids were gathered together chatting.

"The princess is such a good person. She is very kind to us servants." A round-faced maid said with a smile, holding a broom in her hand.

"Yes, and the princess is devoted to the young master." Another tall and thin maid echoed, nodding as she spoke.

When the prince heard these words, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he cherished Yunxi even more in his heart.

At this time, a servant came running over, panting, "Your Highness, someone is coming from the palace."

The prince frowned, his face darkening, "Do you know what this is about?"

The servant shook his head, his face full of fear, "I don't know."

The prince took a deep breath, turned around and went back into the room. He walked to the bed and gently pushed Yunxi, "Yunxi, someone is coming from the palace."

Yunxi suddenly woke up and sat up abruptly, her eyes filled with panic. "The palace? I wonder what's going on."

The prince reached out and held Yunxi's hand, comforting her, "Don't worry, I'll go and take a look."

The prince came to the front hall and saw a eunuch standing there, bowing slightly.

"Your Highness, the Emperor invites you." The eunuch said in a shrill voice.

The prince was puzzled as to why the emperor had suddenly summoned him, but he still responded, "Please wait a moment, eunuch. I will accompany you to the palace."

The prince followed the eunuch into the carriage. Along the way, he kept thinking about the reason why the emperor summoned him.

Arriving at the palace, the prince followed the eunuch all the way to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the prince has arrived." The eunuch announced.

"Let him in." The emperor's voice came from inside.

The prince took a deep breath, stepped into the imperial study, knelt down and saluted, "Your Highness."

The emperor raised his hand and said, "Get up."

The prince stood up and stood aside with his hands hanging down, waiting for the emperor to speak.

The Emperor put down the memorial in his hand and looked at the prince. "I heard that your family recently had a little boy?"

The prince quickly replied, "Your Majesty, this is indeed the case."

The emperor smiled and said, "This is a good thing. I am happy for you too."

The prince hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor changed the subject, "However, the situation on the border has been tense recently, and I want you to go there."

The prince's heart skipped a beat, but he said without hesitation: "I am willing to share the emperor's worries."

After leaving the palace, the prince was full of worries. When he returned to the mansion, Yunxi hurried to greet him.

"Prince, how is it?" Yunxi asked anxiously.

The prince sighed and told Yunxi what happened.

Yunxi's face turned pale. "What should I do?"

The prince patted Yunxi's hand and said, "Don't be afraid. I will definitely return safely."

Yunxi bit her lip and said, "Your Majesty, I will wait for you."

Yunxi felt a little uneasy in the Marquis' Mansion.

It was a long time before the prince came back.

Yunxi was sharp-eyed. Seeing the prince's figure, she hurried over and asked anxiously, "Prince, why does the emperor want to see you?"

The prince forced a smile on his face and said, "Nothing serious, I just asked about Jinxuan's situation."

Yunxi looked carefully at the prince's expression and couldn't believe it, so she frowned slightly.

At night, candlelight flickered in the room. The prince lay in bed, tossing and turning, his eyes wide open, unable to fall asleep.

Yunxi was a light sleeper to begin with, and noticing something strange about the prince, she softly asked, "Prince, is there something on your mind?"

The prince sighed heavily, his brows furrowed into a "川" shape. "I simply feel that now that I have you and the child, my responsibilities are even greater."

After saying that, there was a look of worry in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Yunxi sat up, held the prince's hand tightly, and looked at him firmly, "Prince, I know you have important things on your mind, but I am not a timid person.

No matter what happens in the future, I will always be by your side."

The prince looked at Yunxi's resolute face and was deeply moved. He pulled Yunxi into his arms and said with a trembling voice, "Yunxi, you are so considerate. This prince is really blessed in his previous life.

No matter how difficult the days ahead are, as long as you are here, I will have a backbone."

Yunxi leaned in the prince's arms and patted his back gently, "Don't worry, prince. As a family, we are united and there is nothing we can't overcome."

After hearing this, the prince felt relieved and the gloom on his face dissipated a little.

The prince was moved and embraced Yunxi in his arms, "Yunxi, having you in my life is enough."
