After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Yan Mu pulled Liu Yunxiang, walked all the way through the corner gate of the West Back Garden, walked through the long corridor, and then opened a small door, the fragrance of plum blossoms hit his face.

Snow, plum blossom forest, no one everywhere...

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips and said, "Your Highness, you are playing wildly!"

Yan Mu chuckled, pulled Liu Yunxiang into his arms, and kissed the corner of his mouth, "If you like it here, can you do it next time? Anyway, His Highness's body belongs to you."

Liu Yunxiang blushed and pinched Yan Mu's waist hard.

"What did you bring me here for?"

Yan Mu smiled and took Liu Yunxiang's hand: "Follow me."

Walking on the path in the plum forest, Liu Yunxiang panicked when he thought of the tomb. Fortunately, Yan Mu took her to the main courtyard. As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, before she entered, she heard a series of laughter like silver bells.

She looked to the west and saw two little guys wearing thick coats having a snowball fight under the plum tree in the snow. The older one was her sister. She made a snowball and threw it over without even looking at it. He didn't hit it, so he danced around excitedly and spun around in circles.

The younger one was my younger brother. Because he was dressed a bit thickly, when he was making snowballs, he stuck out his buttocks and became top-heavy and fell into the snow.

At this time, Princess Heshuo hurriedly ran over, picked up the little guy, and patted the snow particles off his face and body.

The younger brother refused, got down from the eldest princess's arms, and threw another snowball at his older sister. The older sister managed to avoid it, so they both screamed and clapped, as if they had won.

Liu Yunxiang's eyes turned red without realizing it. He ran over excitedly and hugged one of them.

"Yan'er, Xingyi, Mom misses you so much!"

Yan'er hugged Liu Yunxiang, and Xingyi also hugged him. The two little guys who were laughing so hard just now also felt a little sad now.

"Mom, why are you missing?"

"Mom, we can't find you."

Liu Yunxiang held back her tears and kissed her, "I found it now. Mom was just playing hide-and-seek with you."

As soon as they heard about the game, the two little guys immediately burst out of silence.

"We're going to play hide and seek!"

"Let's play with mom and daddy!"

Liu Yunxiang held one in each hand, stood up and said to the eldest princess Heshuo: "You are causing trouble to the eldest princess."

Princess Heshuo smiled and said: "I like these two little troubles so much. You take the children to play, and I will personally cook dinner for you today."

She was really happy to see Princess Heshuo. Maybe she had been lonely for too long. Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Okay."

The two little guys wanted to play hide and seek, so Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu had to cooperate with them. This place is really a good place to play hide and seek. It's not big, but there are many places to hide.

First, Liu Yunxiang hid with his two children, and Yan Mu looked for them. After playing a few games, Yan Mu said he was tired and asked the two children to find them. So while the two children were counting, Yan Mu took Liu Yunxiang and hid in the corner, pressed him against the wall and kissed him.

"Rather than taking care of the children, I still like to play with you!"

Liu Yunxiang was so angry that he bit his tongue, "Not serious!"

"I'm just going to pass by you inappropriately."

"Humph!"

"You don't know, the day before yesterday, Lao Zhu, Zhou Lihuai and a beggar took me to a wine shop to drink. I drank a little too much at that time. When I saw a woman approaching me, I was frightened and I immediately sobered up. I said: Don't touch me, I already have a master. You don't know, you made Lao Zhu and the others laugh, saying that I was too shameless and wanted to take advantage of me because they thought I was a woman. There was a plate of braised chicken on the table, and if it was a female, I would You have to avoid suspicion.”

Liu Yunxiang almost burst out of laughter, "Not bad, worthy of praise."

"Then give me another kiss."

The two adults had an emotional exchange, and then they remembered that they were still taking care of their children and hurried to find them. The two little guys probably ran into the Merlin, so Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu looked for them separately.

Liu Yunxiang quickly found his intention and thought of the tomb again. His heart tightened, but he soon saw Yan Mu coming out with Yan'er.

The little guy was riding on Yan Mu's neck, not afraid at all. He patted the plum blossom branches randomly with his little hands, and the snow and petals on the branches rustled down.

"You brat, you did it on purpose, do you believe I buried you in the snow?"

"Not afraid!"

"Hey, I'm looking good on you, right?"

"Humph!"

Yan'er clapped even more vigorously, screaming and laughing at the same time. Watching this scene, Liu Yunxiang felt warm in his heart, and he had the urge to tell him that Yan'er was their son.

But thinking of the surging wind in the morning and the countless sharp claws in the dark night, she still held back. One was for Yan'er's safety, and the other was that she didn't want to put too heavy a burden on Yan Mu.

He has endured too much and is always struggling on the edge of madness. Yan'er should still bear this burden.

Princess Heshuo cooked a lot of dishes and specifically asked the palace maid to move the dining table to the back room, where it was warm.

Everyone sat down together, and Princess Heshuo was busy picking up food for them.

"We'll do it ourselves," Liu Yunxiang said.

Princess Heshuo responded, but still put a plate of dumplings in front of Yan Mu.

"The cucumber and eggs are so chewy. Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince, will try it and find it to his liking."

Yan Mu paused while holding the chopsticks, "How did you come up with the idea of ​​using cucumber as stuffing?"

Heshuo smiled: "There are only cucumbers in the kitchen, and they probably taste a little weird."

Yan Mu took a bite and whispered: "It's delicious."

"Eat more if it tastes good."

"Ah."

Liu Yunxiang saw Yan Mu eating dumplings one bite at a time with his head lowered. He quickly finished the whole plate, then raised his head again, his eye circles a little red.

In order to show off his educational achievements, Yan Mu asked Xing Yi to recite poems, but as a result, Xing Yi's recitation was fragmented, with the previous sentence not connecting to the next, and even being linked to other places. Yan'er, on the other hand, can not only recite poems but also the obscure sentences of Confucius and Mencius. He can also accurately explain the meaning of each sentence and even express the thoughts expressed.

Yan Mu's face darkened, "This does not mean that His Highness is not as good at teaching as Lu Chang'an. It only means that everyone's IQ is high or low."

Liu Yunxiang glared at him, "You are such a good father that you don't hesitate to belittle your daughter's IQ in order to gain respect for yourself!"

"You don't know. You can't really teach me, but I've learned martial arts well. I can beat the dog in the backyard."

"roll!"

Heshuo looked at the two of them and couldn't help but smile, "I think that power, glory and wealth are nothing. It's the most rare thing for a family to be so happy together."

Liu Yunxiang smiled: "You are like the elder of our family."

Heshuo was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands in a hurry, "I don't dare to take it seriously. I don't have this blessing."

"We will visit you often in the future, as long as you don't find it troublesome."

"How come? I have to look forward to it every day."

After dinner, the two little guys wanted to play, so Yan Mu took them out. Liu Yunxiang helped Princess Heshuo change her dressing.

When she was looking for the medicine, she opened the wooden box on the dowry and smelled a sweet smell. It was very strange and indescribable, but it was very light and dissipated immediately.

After changing the medicine, Yan Mu and the others still didn't come back, so Liu Yunxiang went outside to look for them. As she walked deeper and deeper along the path between the plum trees, her heart became heavier and heavier.

When they came to the south wall, Yan Mu and his two children were standing in front of the grave.
