674 Black Eggs and Consort Yun (2)
Of course, Consort Yun also liked the Princess and Yu Wan, but they were after all past the most lethal age, unlike these cute little black eggs. Consort Yun felt her heart melt just by looking at them!
The three little black eggs did not come to visit Consort Yun empty-handed. They had prepared gifts for Great-Grandma.
The three little black eggs took off their small bags and opened them. They took out a brocade box and opened it again. They took out a bunch of fresh roses. They held the roses in one hand and placed the other behind their backs. They bowed very gentlemanly.
This was the first time Consort Yun had received a gift from a “man” in her life. Not only did the three little gentlemen offer the flowers to Great-Grandma, but they also held Great-Grandma’s hand and kissed it piously.
Consort Yun was so happy that she wanted to cry!
Xiaobao raised his head, puffed out his chest, and said solemnly, “We’ll protect you for the rest of your life!”
The Emperor’s eyelids twitched! Where did he learn this ability to coax people? Consort Yun was already so old, could she still be coaxed by such flowery words?
“Waah—” Consort Yun cried. “It’s too touching…”
The speechless Emperor : “…”
Consort Yun was immersed in the joy brought by the little fellows and completely ignored the Emperor at the side. However, it was precisely because of this that her unconcealed appearance fell into the Emperor’s eyes.
The Emperor looked at the high-spirited woman in front of him and almost thought that he was seeing things for a moment. Was this still the Consort Yun who only knew how to roll her eyes at others? Did she know how to laugh too?
It was undeniable that Consort Yun had been beautiful since she was young, and was even more beautiful than the Empress. When the Emperor first met the Empress and Consort Yun, the first person he saw was definitely not the Empress. However, the Empress moved him with her kindness and virtuousness.
Consort Yun had always been beautiful, but she was as beautiful as a lifeless silk flower. At this moment, this silk flower seemed to have suddenly come to life.
It bloomed.
At an almost old age.
“I’m Xiaobao.”
“I’m Er’bao.”
“This is Dabao?” Consort Yun looked at Dabao.
Dabao nodded.
Xiaobao explained considerately, “Dabao doesn’t know how to speak yet.”
Consort Yun had already understood the situation of the little fellows from Yu Shaoqing. The little fellows spoke late and only spoke when they came to Nanzhao. Dabao was a little late, but she believed that Dabao would speak one day.
Consort Yun quickly recognized the three little fellows. The one with a hair swirl on his head was Dabao, the one with two hair swirls were Er’bao, and the smallest was Xiaobao. This was based on their appearance and expressions.
The most honest one was Dabao, the cutest one was Er’bao, and the most mischievous one was Xiaobao.
Consort Yun’s eyesight was much better than the Emperor’s. The Emperor had interacted with them several times, but he still could not accurately distinguish who was who. However, Consort Yun had only met them once before she knew the three little fellows.
“Who sent you here?” Consort Yun asked gently.
The Emperor was stunned again. Her-her voice could be even gentler than the Empress’s? This was simply not like her.
Xiaobao said, “Uncle Thirteen and Uncle Six sent us here!”
They were their father’s two secret guards. She had heard her son-in-law mention them, but he didn’t have time to say much.
Rumble~
The three little fellows’ stomachs growled.
The triplets were like this. If they were hungry, they would be hungry together. If they were thirsty, they would be thirsty together.
Consort Yun wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, “Look at me. I was so focused on talking to you that I forgot to bring you to eat. Come.”
Consort Yun reached out to the three little fellows.
Xiaobao grabbed her hand and held Er’bao’s hand with the other. Er’bao went to hold Dabao’s hand, and Dabao also held the Emperor’s hand.
The Emperor was suddenly at a loss. The number of times he had stepped into Consort Yun’s bedchamber could be counted on one hand, let alone eat. That was never before. Putting aside the meal itself, he was worried that Consort Yun would retort and embarrass him in front of the children.
He did not want to lose his dignity in front of the children, let alone argue with Consort Yun in front of them.
Just as he was feeling uneasy, Consort Yun smiled and said, “Your Majesty hasn’t had dinner yet, right?”
The Emperor was stunned.
Consort Yun smiled and said, “A new chef has come to the small kitchen. I heard that his culinary skills are not bad. If Your Majesty doesn’t mind, stay and have dinner with me and the children.”
After suspecting that he had seen wrongly, the Emperor began to suspect that he had heard wrongly. Consort Yun actually spoke in such a gentle tone. It was simply strange!
Consort Yun was as gentle as a wife who had been with him for many years. “If Your Majesty has official business…”
