Chapter 473 Why Bother?

Rong Yu didn't care and couldn't help but kiss her finger: "You gave birth to my son, and he should be just like you."

When Nan Xi heard this, she couldn't help but be even more surprised: "That's not what you said the first day."

Rong Yu's expression paused.

How should he tell Xi'er that the first day was because the child was really ugly, and he couldn't tell who it looked like at all, but the child belonged to both of them, so he couldn't say that it didn't look like either of them.

That's why he said he looked like himself.

But as the eldest princess said, the facial features of a newborn baby have not grown yet, and wrinkles are normal. Over the past few days, the baby has been the same every day. He eats when he is full, sleeps when he wakes up, eats when he wakes up, and his little face is so pink. Yes, the longer it gets, the better it looks. The skin is as fair and supple as a porcelain doll.

Except for Zhan Ruo, who refused to admit it, all the people who had seen it said that His Highness looked exactly like the Regent, that he was carved from the same mold.

Only then did Rong Yu realize that there was indeed something wrong with his eyes.

After a moment of silence, he said calmly: "It's our child anyway, it doesn't matter who he looks like."

Nan Xi looked at him thoughtfully, "Ayu."

Rong Yu's heart skipped a beat, and his voice became deeper: "Huh?"

"Don't you like children?"

Rong Yu was stunned and shook his head subconsciously: "How could it be? Of course I like our children."

"Really?" Nan Xi smiled lightly, "I didn't see it."

Rong Yu's voice was soft: "You gave birth to her, how could I not like it?"

Nan Xi leaned on the head of the bed, her eyes calm and calm, and she just looked at him without saying a word.

Rong Yu felt stressed by her sight, and she pursed her lips slightly, telling the truth: "When I saw him the first day, I thought he looked a little strange."

Looks weird?

Nan Xi's expression was subtle. She did hear Rong Yu ask her mother about the child's appearance, but she didn't care at the time. Now that she thought about it, did Rong Yu think the child was ugly?

No wonder when she asked the child who he looked like, he hesitated before saying he looked like him.

Nan Xi found it funny.

The regent who is decisive in killing turns out to have such a silly side.

But it's not surprising.

She smiled faintly: "The child has been in the belly for nine months. It has been soaked in the mother's amniotic fluid for a long time, and the skin will wrinkle or even peel. Before birth, the baby is curled up in the mother's body. After birth, it becomes serious. There is a possibility of redness and deformation, and it will become normal after a few days.”

With that said, she told Yin Yue to bring Hao'er over.

Yinyue quickly went to the side hall, picked up the little guy and placed it beside Nan Xi. After blessing her body, she turned around and walked out.

Nan Xi looked down at her son's beautiful and cute face, was silent for a moment, and then said calmly: "This child looks very similar to Jing Ye. I feel that God has given the child back to us."

Rong Yu was startled: "Xi'er."

Jing Ye was the child who died in their previous life.

Nan Xi lowered her head and kissed her son's little face, her voice was calm and soft: "Jing Ye looked like this when he was just a few days old."

Rong Yu said nothing.

When Jingye was just born, too many things happened in the palace. Danshu dragged her weak body after giving birth to reprimand the courtiers. In the next few days, she had to deal with the aftermath. Rong Huaijin, who had piled up political affairs in the palace, moved all the affairs to the palace to deal with them. From early morning At night, I have to deal with all kinds of things outside, and I have almost no time to pay attention to my children.

When Danshu was in confinement, Jingye stayed with her for a month, and was taken care of by the wet nurse thereafter. However, Rong Huaijin only saw the child very rarely. At that time, all his thoughts were on Danshu, and the inner palace pill Shu was weak and needed to rest. He was worried, and there were royal wives and ministers outside. He was busy dealing with the overt and covert hostility of the major families.

It wasn't until Danshu was out of confinement and stabilized the court, and all the messy things inside and outside Dongling were settled, that they had the energy to focus on their children.

But at that time, the child was already eight or nine months old and had reached the stage of babbling.

In fact, even if all external factors are put aside, Rong Huaijin's attitude towards the child in his previous life was not very warm. He was not a good father. Until the child died due to palace intrigues, he barely held him a few times. His own biological son.

The inner hall was silent for a moment.

"Do you want to hug him?" Nan Xi raised her eyes and looked at Rong Yu with a smile, "While he is still young, you should give him more hugs."

When he can walk and talk, he probably won't live such a leisurely and happy life.

Rong Yu didn't say anything. He picked up the child and put it on his lap. He reached out and poked his son's face: "Hao'er really looks like Jing Ye?"

"Like." Nan Xi nodded, "But this is normal. After all, our appearance has not changed much. If the child looks like you, it will not change much."

Rong Yu hummed, then narrowed his eyes and looked at his son's obsidian-like clean and ignorant eyes: "I will protect him well."

Nan Xi smiled slightly: "Of course you have to protect it, otherwise who will you leave your country to?"

Rong Yu raised his eyes and looked at her without saying a word, with deep emotion in his eyes.

"Actually, if we don't come back, it would be good to stay in Dazhou." Nan Xi said with a smile on her lips, "The child can be named Rong and directly inherit the kingdom of Dazhou. When the world is unified, the co-owner of the nine states will be Rong. The surname is Royal Family, not Xuanyuan."

Rong Yu said: "It doesn't matter what his last name is, as long as you know whose bloodline he continues."

"But this is unfair to you." Nan Xi sighed, "The Xuanyuan family doesn't deserve what you do."

"As long as you're worth it." Rong Yu's voice was soft, "In the final analysis, everything I did was not for the Xuanyuan family."

Nan Xi hummed, and did not argue about this anymore. She said calmly: "Let's go to court tomorrow. Since you have taken on this responsibility, you must do your part. The decentralization of power cannot become a habit, otherwise it will easily cause trouble."

"I know." Rong Yu nodded, "But there is no problem for the time being. Wait until you are out of confinement before going."

Nan Xi frowned subconsciously when she heard this.

Rong Yu pursed his lips: "There is nothing particularly important to do in court for the time being."

"Who said there is nothing?" Nan Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, "Have you forgotten that this year is the first year after ascending the throne? This is the time to prepare for the Spring Examination. Have you asked people to prepare?"

Rong Yu was silent for a long time: "Xi'er."

"Hmm?"

Rong Yu frowned slightly: "I'm a little uncomfortable."

"Uncomfortable with what?" Nan Xi raised the corners of his lips a little, and there was a mischievous smile in his eyes, "Are you not used to the tone of my voice?"

Rong Yu nodded.

"Then why are you trying to wake up my memory?" Nan Xi said in a leisurely tone, "Why do you come here?"

Rong Yu was speechless.

"If you dwell too much on some things, you will easily get yourself trapped." Nan Xi said, "You have to learn to let go of the past. Let the past go. If you keep thinking about it, how hard will your life be?"

"I can't let go of loving you." Rong Yu shook his head, "I am willing to suffer a little."
