From the beginning of Xi'er's records, he knew that he was an orphan and was raised by the elders of Huguo Temple, but in his dreams, a young woman often appeared. She is so beautiful, looking at her eyes, full of infinite tenderness and love.

In his small mind, there seemed to be a voice telling him that the young woman in the dream was his mother. One day, she will come to pick her up and bring herself back to her side.

His dream finally came true. On that day, his mother, whom he had seen many times in his dreams, finally came to him. He is no longer an orphan, he has his own name, and the mother who loves him.

Xi'er knew that all children in this world have their own mothers and fathers. His Aru sister was like that too.

Her uncle is her father, and her aunt is her mother.

Strangely, he never thought about who his father was, where he was now, and what he was doing.

Until tonight, this sentence came out of the mouth of the man in front of him.

This person seems to be in harmony with the dark night around him. Just at the moment when he just looked at him, in Xi'er's heart, there was a vague sense of resistance, which was completely different from the feeling he had when facing Prince Qi and General Yuan in the past.

And now, because of his words, Xi'er seemed to be suddenly reminded.

A look of confusion slowly appeared in his eyes.

Yes, he is also a child. Children in other families have mothers and fathers, so who is Xier's father?

He didn't know, and his mother never mentioned it to him.

But the sense of resistance in his heart made him reluctant to tell this person such a thing.

"You haven't said who you are. This is my mother's house!"

Xie Changgeng was startled. He looked at the child on the bed with a face full of alertness, suppressing a trace of dryness in his heart.

"My surname is Xie, and my name is Xie Changgeng. Your mother, she is the woman I married."

"What does it mean to marry her, do you understand? She's mine!"

"Okay, I've answered your question. Now it's your turn to answer mine!"

He took a step and walked towards the child.

The child's shoulders suddenly froze.

As if the moment he uttered his name, the child suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at himself without blinking.

Soon after, he sat up straight, closed his mouth, and stopped talking.

Xie Changgeng could see clearly, in the eyes he looked at himself, in addition to the increasingly guarded color, there seemed to be a bit of anger.

His footsteps stopped, and the child on the bed looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

He tried hard to find something characteristic of his father in this face.

nose? mouth? jaw?

The more Xie Changgeng looked, the more he felt that there was nothing different.

It was the one surnamed Yuan. He became more and more certain.

He remembered what the Liancheng Ling said earlier. During these days, Yuan surnamed Yuan accompanied her. Right at this moment, in the late-night Zhaidong somewhere, the pair of men and women do not know what they are doing.

His hands were slowly clenched into fists.

"Xi'er, your mother, has she ever told you who your father is?"

He asked the question again in a tone that he could say as little as possible not to frighten the child.

But the only answer to him was silence.

The corners of the boy's mouth tightened.

Xie Changgeng waited for a while, and the last trace of patience with this child finally disappeared completely.

"say!"

His eyelids twitched, leaning down, facing the child on the bed, gritted his teeth.

"You bully my mother! You are a bad person! I won't say a word to you!"

Xi'er blushed, and finally shouted at him, and then closed her mouth tightly.

Xie Changgeng was stunned when he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

Mu's mother couldn't bear it any longer, she rushed in and said, "Sir, Xi'er is still young, and you don't know the importance of what you say. Don't take offense. The little son is an orphan, and he lost his biological parents since he was a child. It was sent by Lord Weng. When Lord Weng met this child, the two fell in love, and they recognized him as his adopted son to keep him by his side. We all know this in Changsha.”

"Little son, he has no father. He has only one adoptive father, and that is you, my lord."

Xie Changgeng slowly straightened up and turned to look at Mu's mother.

"I see."

He nodded, and his expression became indifferent.

"If she comes back, tell her to go to the post house to find me."

He didn't look at Xi'er again, and after speaking, he turned and walked out.

Xie Changgeng came suddenly and walked quickly, but Mu's mother was disturbed and uneasy.

As soon as Xie Changgeng left, she immediately sent someone out of the city overnight to deliver the news to the land of Sanmiao. After they left, they went back to the house and saw Xier still sitting on the bed refusing to sleep, so he went over to coax him.

"Mother Mu, is he really my adoptive father?"

He slowly raised his face and asked.

"Master Weng is your mother, Master Xie and Master Weng are husband and wife, and he is naturally your adoptive father."

"Mother Mu, then do you know what he's doing here? Is he going to take away my mother and not let me meet her in the future?"

Seeing his worried look, Mu's mother sighed secretly, coaxed him to lie down, and said, "He is a very important official, and he must have something important to come here. Xi'er sleeps and wakes up, Weng The Lord returned, and nothing happened."

Xi'er stopped talking and started to be stunned, but after all, she was young, and although she had something on her mind, sleepiness struck, her eyelids gradually drooped, and she fell asleep again.

In the evening of the next day, Mu Fulan hurried back to Liancheng from Liyang, without even taking a breath, and immediately went to the post house to find Xie Changgeng.

The post house in Liancheng has long since fallen into disrepair. It has not been repaired for many years, and now there is still a small official to guard it. When I saw Xie Changgeng arrive last night, I was frightened and packed up a few habitable houses for him and his entourage. Seeing the princess arriving at this moment, she was busy leading the way, took her to a courtyard, and then bowed to leave.

Mu Fulan came to the door, knocked on the door twice, and then pushed open the door.

She saw a man standing in front of the window, with a blue shirt and sash, with a sloppy back, looking at the sunset in the distance, as if he was so fascinated that he didn't even notice when he came in, but his figure remained motionless.

Mu Fulan walked behind him and said, "I received the news that you are here and rushed back immediately. What are you looking for me for?"

Xie Changgeng turned around slowly.

His two icy eyes fell on her face, who had not seen each other for nearly half a year.

"Ms. Mu, this Xi'er is your illegitimate son, right?"

He opened his mouth and said, straight and unobtrusive.

"At the end of last year, when you were in Beijing, I promised to let you go home. At that time, you tore up the book and didn't want to leave. You shouldn't have forgotten it, right?"

"In order to get you out of Shangjing, in front of Empress Liu, I tried my best to achieve my goal. It's only been a long time since you returned to Changsha. The unborn son and the adulterer openly went against each other, humiliating me to this point!"

"Mister Mu, who do you think I am, Xie Changgeng? Where do you want to put me?"

The setting sun plated his face into a golden face, like a mask, without the slightest expression. Only the two eyes that looked at her were slowly filled with ill will.

"If you don't explain things to me today, I have the means to teach you why you don't regret it!"
