Chapter 877: 801 two princes_3 Chapter 877: 801 two princes_3 It must be said that the three Imperial Concubines chosen by Tang Mo truly had distinct characteristics, each representing a unique beauty, simply delightful to behold.
Although Yulin was not the type of beauty that catches your eye at first glance, she absolutely was the kind that grew on you, making her more likable the more you looked.
Despite already being a mother, her figure remained perfectly maintained, with not even pregnancy marks visible on her waist.
As the saying goes, nobility and comfort breed quality; such demeanor cannot be faked but is cultivated over years of superior living—Yulin was evidence of this. Originally just a resilient wild grass, under the nourishment of power and knowledge, she had grown into a towering tree.
As for Alice, there’s no need to mention it; she was already a noble, and a famous beauty at that. Her demeanor truly was perfectly mastered.
Over the years, the vast wealth Tang Mo had entrusted her to manage had made her even more radiant.
She knew how to make money and, of course, how to spend it. Given how she adored steam engines back in the day, the prosperity of her business ventures today is not an exaggeration.
Consider this, the less than one billion Gold Coins that Sofia had privately hoarded could double in a few years. Alice, holding tens of billions of Gold Coins, how much would that increase in a few years?
A woman with her own career is the most appealing, and Alice’s feminine allure was a bit terrifying. It’s a good thing she married Tang Mo; otherwise, others might not have been able to handle this wild mare.
Yue’er was an interesting case. She had rushed back to Chang’an for the parade celebration and had been busy out of town for the past half a year.
Now, she was far more than just an environmental officer. Yue’er, who had furthered her education at Brunas Women’s College and Dragon Island University, was definitely not just a pretty face.
While she ran her environmental ventures successfully, she also helped Tang Mo oversee various side businesses: she was even the boss of Elf John, acting as the behind-the-scenes fashion godmother of the Great Tang Empire.
After taking over the film, radio, and publishing industries, the energy of Yue’er, the cat-eared girl, was far from small, even overshadowing the more reclusive Yulin and Alice in terms of publicity.
In any case, the three women sitting there looked like a breathtaking view, causing Tang Mo to start worrying about his own vitality early in the morning.
After all, he was no Superman, with no body of steel. Nor was he any sort of berserker sorcerer; these nightly revels might indeed be a bit too much for him.
Tang Mo’s first son, Yulin’s child, was named Tang Yu by Tang Mo. Alice’s child, due to his charming mixed-race features, was named Tang Xuan by Tang Mo. Both names were simple and easy to remember, nothing special.
“Daddy!” The Second Prince almost gave the nearby nanny a fright as he reached for the fried dough sticks while propelling himself towards the delicious items on the table.
The First Prince wasn’t much better, his face covered in jam with a mess sprawled before him making anyone dizzy at sight.
Both children were still very young, not yet at the age for formal education, so Tang Mo could only smile as he watched several nannies and wet nurses joyously jump around attending to the kids.
Honestly, Tang Mo had no children in his previous life and really didn’t know how to raise them, so he felt uneasy and insecure about it.
Rather than educating his children, he was better at using the system in his head to transfer weapons and equipment from his previous life to this world.
Every parent faces the huge and important task of how to raise an exceptional descendant, having no experience yet having to face the most real battlefield immediately.
In the world Tang Mo was familiar with, the safest course the royal family could choose was to outsource the entire education, entrusting it to professional teachers.
Arrange a bunch of teachers first, like what “Master Bao” would suggest, to teach the princes a variety of knowledge or simply send the princes to school to be educated alongside other talents.
However, this approach could create some issues as the princes grew older: the teachers managing them held a lower status than the princes.
It’s just like overprotected children at school who the teachers can’t discipline freely for fear of causing trouble and affecting their jobs.
So Tang Mo, looking at these two innocently mischievous children, felt as if he was facing a great adversary. Honestly, he wasn’t as nervous or anxious even when receiving battle reports from Luff at the command center.
The Tang Royal Family didn’t have many strict rules; in fact, many exceptions were silently allowed by Tang Mo. For instance, Wes and Roger could join the table for meals if they were around.
On one hand, this showcased favoritism; on the other, it reflected an old camaraderie. They were once brothers fighting side by side in the same trench; suddenly maintaining a distance didn’t feel right.
However, Wes knew his boundaries, generally choosing to sit at the farthest place to eat on his own. Roger didn’t come for meals often, so the royal family’s meals usually consisted of no more than six people.
Li’ao once asked Tang Mo if they should try to find out if there are any branches of the Tang family still existing. If any, whether they should be invited back to strengthen the Royal Family.
His suggestion was declined by Tang Mo, who also sternly prohibited searching for his relatives. If relatives did seek refuge, they were still to be handled discreetly.
It wasn’t that he was unkind or unemotional; it was because he genuinely didn’t know how to interact with these strangers. After all, he was a time-traveler; helpless and alone when impoverished, and now that he had achieved success, he wouldn’t recognize a horde of poor relatives appearing out of nowhere.
Sharing hardships, he would rather give Wes a million Gold Coins to squander freely than to give a mere ten thousand Gold Coins to indirectly support the wife of the younger son of his second uncle’s big brother’s second maternal grandfather.
Today, one more chapter, a long one.
