After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Chapter 128 Prince Rui Returns

"Eat more vegetables." Concubine Xian picked up a piece of Qi You's favorite dish with chopsticks and said with a smile.

"My beloved concubine, why don't you serve me some food?" Emperor Jingyuan was in a good mood and said resentfully to Concubine Xian.

Concubine Xian glanced at Emperor Jingyuan. It was rare to see him like this, so she picked up some food for him and said, "Your Majesty, eat more too."

The meal ended in such a warm atmosphere.

With Emperor Jingyuan present, Concubine Xian and Qi Heng didn't say much.

Qi You went back home with his father in a carriage.

Behind him were five large carriages, two of which contained things that Concubine Xian had packed for Qi You, as well as some rewards. The other, more luxurious carriage contained various rewards from Emperor Jingyuan.

Qinglian sat in the empty carriage in the middle, while Zhuying and Xiao Yuanzi sat in the last carriage.

Sitting in the leading carriage were Qi Heng and his son Qi You. It took an incense stick of time to get from Prince Rui's Mansion to the Imperial Palace by carriage. The two had been staring at each other in silence from the moment they got on the carriage until now.

Qi Heng looked at his fifth son who was sitting silently opposite him and sighed in his heart.

Really, he spent the least time with this son among all his children. No, it should be said that he didn't spend any time with him at all. So for a moment he didn't know what to say to ease the atmosphere.

Moreover, this son obviously did not want to pay attention to him and was very cold to him, which was completely different from how he treated him in front of Mrs. Qiao. No, it was also different from how he treated him in front of his mother and father. He treated him as if he were no different from a stranger. Except for saying a few words to him in accordance with etiquette when they first met and when they left, he would not speak to him at all at other times.

Qi Heng was in a bit of a dilemma. He had never met children like this before. Qi You was the first.

Thinking of what his father had said to him, Qi Heng was shocked, but also felt infinitely proud. Such a young child could set a trap to lure the enemy, and succeeded. But thinking of what his father had told him about the emergency situation at the scene, Qi Heng was still a little angry. After all, luring the enemy with one's body was too dangerous. Although he was small, he was really brave!

When his father told him about this, he looked so proud and complacent, which he had never seen on his brothers before. It was obvious that his fifth son had really been approved by his father with his own eyes, and now even the position of the head of the secret guards was given to him.

Thinking of Zhuying in the carriage behind, Qi Heng felt a little jealous. He didn't envy any share of the glass, but who was Zhuying? She was an expert among experts and could create countless experts for others. His father just gave her to his own son. It must be said that he was really willing to do so!

From this, it can be seen that the emperor is planning to train his fifth son well.

Now, Qi Heng had to take his fifth son seriously. His father said that Qi You could not be taught in the same way as other children of the same age. He had to be treated like an adult.

However, he couldn't find anything to say to him at the moment, so the two of them didn't say a word until the carriage stopped.

Qi You naturally felt the eyes on him along the way, but he pretended not to know because he had nothing to say to him.

At the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion, everyone had been waiting for a while. Now that they saw the carriage finally arrived, everyone's faces were filled with excitement, and they quickly went out of the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion to greet it.

Now several young masters who went to the palace to study have also returned, so at first glance, there are quite a lot of people and it looks extremely lively.

Qiao Rongjin's face was also filled with excitement. At this moment, he was already standing behind the princess and in front of the other concubines, looking forward to it.

She is finally going to see her baby. These three months have seemed like a year and it has been quite torturous.

Soon, everyone saw the door of the carriage in front opened, and then the prince came out and jumped off the carriage with a neat movement. The princess and the women in the backyard were all excited. Then, they saw a small figure coming out. Who else could it be but Qi You? Seeing Qi You coming out, the prince turned around and seemed to want to carry the person out of the carriage.

Qi You looked at the man in front of him who was stretching out his hand, was silent for a moment, and then said, "I can get down by myself..." Before he finished speaking, he found that his body was out of control and he was picked up by someone.

Qi You's body stiffened for a moment, and then he showed displeasure from his heart. He glanced coldly at the man with a gentle expression, and fell to the ground the next second.

Qi Heng naturally felt the stiff little body in his arms. It was rare to see his son like this. He felt amused, but also a little sad. Did he really dislike his father?

This scene was seen by everyone, but because they were so happy that Prince Rui had returned, they ignored it. Everyone dressed up beautifully today, but they came with a purpose.

"Prince, you are finally back!" Just when Qi Heng wanted to talk to his fifth son, the princess came forward.

"Your Majesty!"

"Father!"

After the princess spoke first, the others came forward and surrounded Prince Rui.

Except Qiao Rongjin and Qi You.

Qi You started searching with his eyes since he got off the carriage, and soon he saw his mother smiling at him. Seeing his mother's rosy and shiny face, Qi You was relieved immediately and hurried over.

"mother!"

The person hadn't arrived yet, but he had already started shouting.

Seeing this, Qiao Rongjin smiled brightly, and quickly stretched out his arms and hugged the delicate little cub who rushed towards him.

Feeling the soft little body in his arms, Qiao Rongjin's eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles, and then he thought of something, and hurriedly let go of his son's body, stepped forward and stroked him, and seeing that everything was fine, he was completely relieved, "It's good that he's okay, it's good that he's okay."

Then he hugged the little body in front of him tightly.

Qi You also let his mother hold him in her arms. The coldness on his face disappeared completely, replaced by joy.

Xiao Yuanzi and Zhuying got off the carriage and saw this scene. They were stunned for a rare moment.

Is this still the young master they know?

Xiao Yuanzi felt the most deeply and was stunned the longest.

It was the first time he met his master's biological mother. Before he met her, he had guessed that she must be a very beautiful woman, but he didn't expect her to be so beautiful. No wonder his master grew up to be so enchanting. The most important thing was that his master looked like this in front of his mother!

The moment Qinglian saw her master, tears burst out.

Seeing the scene of her master and her son hugging each other, Qinglian cried even more happily.

Thinking of what the young master had encountered in the palace, Qinglian suddenly felt ashamed to see his master, and for a moment he was afraid to step forward.

"My dear son, I asked someone to make you your favorite cakes."

"Mom is so nice! Can I have a few more pieces later?" Qi You spoke softly, his eyes sparkling, looking at his mother without blinking.
