The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!

Chapter 990: Chapter 990: I Await You

You Er blushed and smiled, "Your Majesty, you flatter me."

The Emperor patted his head and kindly asked, "I heard you follow your grandfather to train in the military camp every day. Is it tough there?"

You Er shook his head, "Not tough, it’s just practicing martial arts, studying, eating, and sleeping, it’s the same as being at home."

The Emperor laughed; this child is better than many adults, truly a good child.

"You saved my son. What reward do you want?"

He paused for a moment, "Just say it, as long as it is within my means."

You Er shook his head, "Saving the Fourth Prince was just a coincidence, it’s not worth Your Majesty’s reward."

The Emperor asked again, "Then what do you want to become when you grow up, You Er?"

You Er looked up at the Emperor, and declared firmly, "I want to be a Great General."

The Emperor smiled and asked, "Why?" ƒгeewёbnovel.com

You Er said loudly, "To reclaim the lost lands of Great Chu, to wash away Great Chu’s shame, and to protect the people of Great Chu."

The Emperor’s eyes immediately became moist; these words spoke to his heart, and he replied repeatedly, "Good, good, good!"

"It is admirable that you have this ambition."

"Grow up quickly. When you do, I will grant you the title of Great General and send you to fight the people of Jin Country!"

You Er kneeled on the ground and spoke earnestly, "I will not disappoint Your Majesty’s expectations."

The Emperor suddenly burst into laughter, "Youzhi has raised a good son indeed!"

His gaze settled on You Er, "I await you; I await that day!" With that, he turned around and walked away briskly.

The Duke patted You Er’s head and followed the Emperor out.

After they had walked far away, Ruru patted her chest, "Thank goodness, today Father didn’t scold me."

Xie Heng came over and removed the leaves from her hair, "In the future, don’t do such dangerous things, especially don’t bring the Fourth Prince. If it weren’t for You Er today, the Fourth Prince would have been injured, not to mention we would all have been punished."

Ruru whispered, "Then I won’t take him climbing trees next time; he’s too timid."

Xie Heng was amused, "You’re a girl, how can you climb trees like boys?"

Ruru looked up at him, "Why not? It’s not like there’s a rule written on the tree that girls can’t climb."

"My sister-in-law says, men and women are the same, as long as one’s ability allows, and as long as one doesn’t commit crimes, one can do whatever they want." freēwebnovel.com

Xie Heng said nothing further, having often visited the Jiang Family in recent years, he knew that Doctor Gu’s way of educating the children was different from others.

He pondered Ruru’s words carefully and nodded, "Your sister-in-law is right."

"I opposed you climbing trees actually because I was worried about your safety; I shouldn’t have brought up the issue of boys and girls."

Ruru smiled happily, "I knew it, Brother Hang wouldn’t dislike me just because I’m different from other girls."

Xie Heng’s ears turned a suspicious shade of red. At thirteen or fourteen, he understood certain things that Ruru didn’t.

Expressions of affection like "liking" shouldn’t be casually said to others.

Ruru put some mulberries wrapped in her handkerchief into Xie Heng’s hand, "This is for Brother Hang."

The Fourth Prince, standing beside them, pouted, as he also wanted Ruru’s mulberries, yet after climbing the tree, he hadn’t picked a single one.

You Er glanced over, "Auntie, would you like to join us for a meal?"

Ruru cheerfully ran over, "Sure, sure, let’s go quickly, let’s head back."

Xie Heng watched Ruru walk away with Qi Er and You Er, shook his head, and carefully cradled the mulberries in his hands as he followed suit.

The Fourth Prince stood under the mulberry tree for a while, not very happily, and then walked away too.
