This call made King Nanyang pause.
He frowned at the three children and looked out the door.
It was a four-year-old girl calling her grandfather.
The middle-aged man smiled warmly and picked her up. He asked with a smile, “Where do you want to go to play?”
“I want to eat candied hawthorn,” the little girl said sweetly.
The middle-aged man smiled brightly. “Alright! Grandpa will bring you to buy
The three little ones also saw this scene.
Xiaohu blinked. If he could eat candy just by calling him Grandpa, he would do it.
He opened his mouth to scream.
Dahu covered his mouth.
“You can’t call Grandpa blindly!” Dahu educated his stinky brother seriously.
Xiaohu didn’t understand what Grandpa meant, but Dahu did. Grandpa was quite special. For example, he could call any elder in the village Grandpa: Grandpa Li, Grandpa Zhang, and so on, but it was definitely not like Grandpa Li and Grandpa Zhang.
“Only Mother’s father can be called Grandpa.”
Dahu understood. He pointed at King Nanyang. “He’s not.”
King Nanyang frowned.
“Mother’s father is Grandpa!” Erhu said.
“Yes! Grandpa! Grandpa! Grandpa!” Xiaohu thought of Su Cheng and jumped up excitedly.
This question was beyond the scope… Why was it that other people’s mother’s father was a maternal grandfather, and their mother’s father was a paternal grandfather?
In the not-too-distant future, he would learn a word—live-in son-in-law.
However, he clearly did not know.
Dahu was successfully stuck.
“Idiot Dahu! Idiot Dahu!” Xiaohu ran around Dahu.
“I’m not an idiot!” Dahu stomped his feet.
Xiaohu made a face and stuck out his tongue as he ran. “Come on, come on!
Catch me! Hehehe!”
Dahu went to catch his stinky brother.
Erhu to paper over something: “Xiaohu, run! Dahu, do your best!”
The three little ones played crazily in the courtyard. The quiet place that had been quiet for many years suddenly became noisy.
The Gu Master knew that his master liked peace and quiet. He walked over and said, “Master, when I give them some Gu, they will immediately…”
King Nanyang interrupted him. “Call Scorpio over.”
The Gu Master was stunned. He glanced at the three little ones in a tizzy and said, “Yes.”
Scorpio was a code name, not his real name.
The Gu Master released the messenger pigeon.
About an hour later, the man with the code name Scorpio appeared in King Nanyang’s study.
“Scorpio greets Master.”
Xu Qing knelt on one knee and bowed respectfully.
“Lalala – Lalala
Xiaohu twisted his b.u.t.t in the courtyard.
The three little fellows were completely unaware of being hostages. They were bold and energetic. The dog next door was autistic from their noise.
King Nanyang sat on a chair. The dark light enveloped most of his figure, causing him to emit a cold and sinister aura.
“Is everything going smoothly in the capital?” King Nanyang asked.
Xu Qing reported, “Xiao Duye has fallen out of favor recently. Xiao Zhonghua is in the limelight, but Emperor Jing Xuan doesn’t dote on this son. He just has to be rewarded for his contributions. Xiao Shunyang has been especially low-key since he returned from the peach forest. The person Emperor Jing Xuan likes the most now should be him.”
As the saying went, the tallest tree would be destroyed by the wind. It was not a bad thing to keep a low profile occasionally.
King Nanyang did not comment. He pointed at the three little fellows outside. “What’s the situation with them?”
Xu Qing said truthfully, “Wei Ting was injured in Qingzhou and was picked up by Su Cheng. His three sons were also picked up.”
The Qin and Su families announced to the public that the three children were raised by Su Cheng from outside, but Xu Qing had seen Old Master Su and Su Dalang and learned the truth from them. The three children were Wei Ting’s sons.
It was hard to say if they were biological. Anyway, the villagers thought they were biological.
King Nanyang said, “Have you never seen them before?”
A rhetorical question sometimes meant a question.
Xu Qing said, “Yes.”
King Nanyang said calmly, “Didn’t their looks make you suspect anything?”
Xu Qing replied honestly, “They look like Princess Min. It’s very likely… that they’re Princess Min and Wei Ting’s children.”
King Nanyang did not send anyone to monitor the Wei family. He did not need it. Lord Wu An would take the initiative to tell him everything about the Wei family.
MO Guiyuan had monitored her before, but he did not know Xiao Min’s ident.i.ty, so he naturally would not pay attention to a little mute in Matriarch Wei’s courtyard.
Only Matriarch Wei knew about Wei Liulang and Xiao Min. She did not tell Lord Wu An, who was far away at the border..
