Chapter 348 Beautiful Spider Spirit VS Cold Ascetic Monk 52

Xuanji sat aside, wearing a plain brocade robe, with a calm and detached temperament, but there was hidden worry between his eyebrows.

He straightened his clothes and said calmly: "Father, this matter is a long story, and it involves some mortal past events. Although my son has been in Buddhism for many years, things in the world are impermanent, and due to fate, I had these two children by accident.”

When Emperor Xuanwu heard about the two children. It was his, and he suddenly became energetic. He put down the ink pen in his hand, stared at him curiously, and asked: "What's going on? Tell me."

Because this son is a Buddhist. , even if he returned to the royal family, he did not return to the secular world. He was always worried that the Wei Palace would not be able to succeed.

I was still thinking about how to persuade him to return to secular life.

Unexpectedly, I already have two children.

Xuanji looked a little unnatural. He sorted out his thoughts and said calmly:

“Back to my father, a few years ago there was a scorpion spirit in Zhoujiazhuang who caused chaos and harmed the people. Invited to Zhoujiazhuang to eliminate demons, during the fight, he accidentally He was poisoned by the scorpion spirit. Although he tried his best to kill the scorpion spirit, the poison in his body was not cured. By chance, he became close to a folk girl. These two children were that folk girl. Born by a woman.”

He did not mention Yu Yao’s identity, only using the name of a common woman instead.

Firstly, I didn't want to cause trouble to her. Secondly, Yaoer Spider Spirit's identity is really not suitable to be exposed.

Everyone in the world is afraid of monsters. If the father knew that the two children were born from monsters, he would be afraid and disgusted in his heart, and he might even execute them secretly.

"I see, the world is full of troubles, but you can be compassionate and protect all living beings, and you can also shoulder the responsibility of being a father. I am very relieved."

Emperor Xuanwu did not ask that question Who is the folk girl who gave birth to two children, and where is she? Since Xuan Ji didn't mention it, he was either dead or had no results with Xuan Ji.

No matter what the reason is, he doesn't care.

"Since they are your children, they are of royal blood, and they should be given the status and protection they deserve."

Emperor Xuanwu put the memorial in his hand aside and said again.

Xuanji bowed slightly and said respectfully: "Thank you very much for your father's grace. I will do my best to raise them to adulthood and live up to my father's high expectations."

"Well, I can rest assured that you are doing your job. "

Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly, and then changed the topic, "Since you have children, you can simply return to secular life. If you have a Buddha in your heart, why should you stick to formalities? "
< br>

Xuanji had mixed feelings in his heart, and a flash of pain flashed in his eyes.

He was indeed planning to return to the secular world, but Yao'er didn't want him anymore, so what was the point of returning to the secular world?

The only thing he thinks about now is his two children. When the two children grow up, he will return to Wanfo Temple to spend the rest of his life with the ancient Buddha with green lanterns.

Xuanji suppressed the turbulence in his heart and looked at Emperor Xuanwu with a calm expression.

"Father, although I have children, I have broken the precepts, but my heart towards the Buddha has not changed. Now I only want to raise my two children. As for returning to secular life, I have no plans for the time being. This plan.”

Emperor Xuanwu frowned slightly, seemingly displeased, and wanted to say a few more words of persuasion, but looking at his son's firm eyes, he knew that it would be useless to say more.

He didn't try to persuade him. He was thinking about whether Prince Wei also had an heir and whether he would return to secular life, so he let him go.

There is no need to cause unhappiness between father and son just because of this matter.

“That’s all, since you have made up your mind, I won’t force you. But you need to remember that as a member of the royal family, you should fulfill your responsibilities for the royal family, and you must also plan for the future of your two children. Don't be too indifferent to world affairs."

Xuanji bowed again, "I understand that I will live up to my father's instructions."

The hall fell into silence for a moment, with only the sound of Emperor Xuanwu reading the memorials and the slight sound of criticizing the memorials.

Xuanji had a lot of thoughts in her heart, thinking about the appearance of the two children and the past with Yu Yao, and unknowingly fell into memories.

Although it was short-lived, it was beautiful enough to be worth recalling throughout his life.

When Emperor Xuanwu raised his head and glanced at him, he saw his absent-minded look, with a faint smile on his lips, obviously very happy.

This son has always been stoic, expressionless, and rarely shows his emotions. He actually laughed, which was quite surprising.

Emperor Xuanwu didn't ask him what he was thinking about. He waved his hand and said, "You can go back for now. When you have time, bring the two children into the palace for me to see."

"Yes, I obey the order." "

Xuanji stood up, bowed and said something, then turned and left the imperial study, returning to Prince Wei's Mansion with a complicated expression.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the bluestone path, elongating his lonely figure. Although his steps are steady, his heart is full of emotions and cannot calm down.

He went straight to the side hall to see if the two children were okay.

As soon as I stepped in, a warm laughter greeted me.

Yu Yao is kneeling on the mat, An An and Youyou are surrounding her, giggling, slapping her with their little hands from time to time, shouting: "Mother, let's play together"

The picture is warm and beautiful. She exudes the glory of motherhood, and her face is filled with a warm and intoxicating smile. It is the warmth that Xuanji has not seen for a long time.

As he watched, the tip of his nose suddenly felt sore, his heart felt astringent, his eyes were red and slightly moist, and two lines of clear tears quietly slipped from the corners of his eyes.

In order to avoid being seen by her, Xuanji quickly turned around and wiped it with the corner of his clothes, his face was calm and calm again. Sensing movement at the door, Yu Yao turned around and saw Xuan Ji standing at the door.

The smile on her face paused slightly, then returned to normal.

She didn't get up either. She still knelt down on the mat and played with the two children, whispering: "I'm here to see the children."

In fact, she would come over quietly every day, but basically When Xuanji was not around, I didn't expect to meet him today.

It’s a bit embarrassing.

Xuanji nodded, walked into the side hall, and squatted on the edge of the mat.

His eyes lingered on her and the two children, and finally fell on her beautiful face, with complicated eyes, "The two children miss you very much, and they even shouted for mother to hug you at night."< br>
Yu Yao felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him like this, and she felt uncomfortable after hearing his words.

She lowered her eyes and avoided Xuanji's gaze, "I will visit them often in the future, you don't have to tell me this."

Xuanji was startled slightly, and her heart surged. There was a sense of loss, and his eyes gradually dimmed.

The corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

He stood up slowly, looked at her and the two children, his voice was a little hoarse, "As long as you can come and spend more time with them, I will be satisfied."

She did not respond, I just focus on playing with my two children.

Xuan Jingjing stood aside and watched quietly. Looking at the warm and beautiful scene in front of him, his heart was extremely sad.

“Yaoer, you have really decided”

He spoke with difficulty, every word seemed to be squeezed out of his throat.

Yu Yao avoided his gaze and stroked Youyou's hair, "Xuanji, I know you love me, but I also can't ignore Dugu Ye's deep affection. The relationship between you two , I can only choose one, and I gave both of you a fair chance. It was you who hesitated." , trying to make his voice sound calm.

"Yes, it was me who hesitated and lost to Dugu Ye, so I lost you. I didn't blame you, I just blamed myself for not loving you enough and not looking back as much as Dugu Ye did."< br>
Although Xuanji acted very calmly, she could still feel the intense emotions surging in his heart.

Just about to say something.

At this moment, a rush of footsteps hurriedly entered the side hall.

He is a servant of the Wei Palace, "Prince Qi, Eunuch Fu'an came with the imperial edict, saying that the edict is for the two young masters."

Xuanji is not surprised, Weiwei Nodding, he turned to Yu Yao and said, "You wait here for a while, I will take the child out to receive the order first."

After saying that, he hugged An An and Youyou and went out.

She couldn't follow him out, but she was curious about the content of the decree, so she concealed herself and followed quietly.

Following all the way to the garden, they saw a chubby eunuch holding the Huangling Imperial Order, followed by many palace guards and eunuchs.

The chubby eunuch was Fu'an, the leader of Emperor Xuanwu's side.

Xuanji hugged An An and Youyou and knelt down to greet them. The entire servants of the Wei Palace knelt on the ground.

Fu'an glanced at Xuanji and the two children in his arms, slowly unfolded the imperial edict, and read loudly:

"My beloved son, King Wei, Dugu Gu, has made great contributions to the country and benefited all the people. Now I have sons, Dugu Rui and Dugu Min, who were born according to the destiny. It is really the luck of my royal family. I specially named Dugu Rui as the crown prince of the Wei Palace. Dugu Minwei Changle Princess, in order to carry on the legacy of our ancestors, I hereby express my gratitude.”

After reading, Xuanji handed An An and Youyou to the nanny behind him, stood up and took the imperial edict, bowing deeply to show his kindness to the emperor. of gratitude.

Yu Yaoyin watched this scene secretly, feeling happy and complicated in her heart.

Suddenly I felt that it would be good to give the child to Xuanji.

If the children follow her and marry to the East Palace, even if Dugu Ye is very kind to them and will not treat them badly, their status will still be embarrassing.

If you stay with Xuanji, you won't have these problems, and you can naturally inherit everything in the Wei Palace.

As for Youyou, she is also the distinguished princess of Changle County. She has the love of her father, and she often comes to visit. As long as she does not marry the wrong person in the future, she will be happy and worry-free in her life.

She was relieved to see that her two children were well.

He did not say hello to Xuanji and left quietly.

Xuanji saw off Fu'an and his party who had announced the edict, and put the edict away. When he turned back to the side hall, he found that Yao'er had already left.

Disappointment flashed in his eyes.

He slowly walked to the mat, squatted down, and gently touched the place where she had just knelt with his fingers, as if he could feel her remaining warmth and the laughter left behind by her and the children.

However, this warmth disappeared in an instant, leaving him alone in his memories, with eyes full of worry and loneliness.
