The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1933

Chapter 1933: Chapter 962: Family Reunion (Part 2)

Are this disheveled little dark couple really the suave young master and the supposedly once more mesmerizing young commander?

Xiao Hen said with a lifeless face, "There was a charcoal cart... overturned!"

The two of them first sent the Duke of An back to the residence before entering the palace, and halfway, Little Shiyi knocked over a charcoal cart, covering both of them in a face of ash.

However, it was true that they had both tanned and lost weight.

Wu Sixi escorted them to Fenglin Palace: "His Majesty is in court, and will come soon; the Little Prince and Little Princess are cooling off in the pavilion."

The two went to the pavilion.

The little babies were born on the ninth of February, now almost five months old, growing fair and chubby, with little arms and legs like tiny lotus roots.

And because Long Yi no longer made midnight snacks for Xiao Yang and Little Yiyi no longer grabbed food from Xiao Cong, Xiao Cong gradually caught up with Xiao Yang.

Despite Xiao Cong’s best efforts to be a quiet little handsome boy, he could not resist the innate restlessness of a young child, occasionally moving his little arms and legs.

Especially with the strange telepathy between the twins, often when Xiao Yang made a sound, he couldn’t help but make a little sound too.

The two happened to hear a small "mm ah" from Xiao Cong, and the fatigue of the journey dissipated in this little baby voice.

They thought that after such a long separation, the twins wouldn’t recognize them, but surprisingly it wasn’t the case.

When they appeared clean in front of the twins, the twins cried out with a "wah."

It was then, finally, that they realized they missed their parents.

Gu Jiao turned around and saw Xiao Hen’s eyes were red as well.

Gu Jiao: "..."

...

People’s personalities undergo a series of changes as their identities transform. Since ascending the throne as Empress, Shangguan Yun also unconsciously gained a bit more authority and sharpness of a ruler.

She deeply understood the injustice towards women in this era. Back then, it was due to favorable times, her tyrant of a father suppressing all dissent, her being the sole legitimate daughter of the Empress with pure lineage, and Xuanyuan Family being powerful enough to support her.

But that dissatisfaction was always there, and after she ascended the throne, these issues gradually surfaced.

She couldn’t show even the slightest weakness, otherwise those with ill intentions might seize the opportunity.

Only in front of those she truly trusted and cared about would she put down her guard.

"Ahen!"

She arrived at the door of the Sleeping Palace and immediately saw Xiao Hen teasing the twins, her imperial aura dissipated, replaced by endless gentleness in her eyes.

Xiao Hen turned and smiled slightly at her, "Mother."

Shangguan Yun’s eyes moistened.

Shangguan Qing didn’t know her little brother had entered the palace today; he went out to play, leaving Shangguan Yun and the young couple to have lunch in Fenglin Palace.

It was Shangguan Yun’s first time seeing Gu Jiao without her birthmark, and she was utterly amazed. She had guessed that Gu Jiao would be beautiful without the birthmark, but never expected it would be such otherworldly beauty.

If she goes to the Military Camp looking like this, wouldn’t those young men go crazy?

"Jiaojiao, have some food." Shangguan Yun picked a soft, glutinous piece of Candied Pork Hock for Gu Jiao. "Ahen said you like this."

Gu Jiao tasted it, the sauce made of candied sugar and spices was very thick, paired with some chili, the flavor pervaded the meat. Though it was spicy and strong, it was sweet but not greasy, spicy but not irritating.

Gu Jiao liked it very much.

Thinking of something, Gu Jiao asked her, "By the way, Mother, how is your injury? Does it still hurt?"

Xiao Hen looked over at Shangguan Yun. Gu Jiao was referring to the incident where she had half a nail stuck into her back.

Shangguan Yun shook her head, "It hasn’t hurt for a long time. I’m no different now than before I was injured."

Gu Jiao said, "Then we can go to the National Master Hall in a bit, and I’ll remove the screws for you."

Shangguan Yun pondered, "Will it hurt?"

Ye Qing led them to the Secret Room. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
