With the system traveling through time, the queen always becomes a mother painlessly

Shang Yue pursed his lips and looked at the Queen Mother with a hint of apology in his eyes, "Mother, I am really unfilial and have caused you to worry."

"Yue'er, you are not unfilial. As the emperor of the Shang Dynasty, you shoulder much more than your mother does. Having you is the proudest thing in your mother's life."

Even though Shang Yue was cold-tempered and had heard countless compliments, he still felt a little happy when he heard his mother praising him like this.

The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

"It's a good thing that you're back. We will have lunch in the Cining Palace at noon. I'll send someone to inform Yan'er, Yu'er and Zhizhi later." The Queen Mother said with a smile.

Shang Yue paused, thinking of Nan Yan in Changle Palace, and said with a light cough: "Mother, let's do it tomorrow! I just came back and I'm still a little tired. I want to have a good rest for a day."

The Queen Mother looked up at her son and saw that he did look tired. She felt instantly distressed.

According to the distance between Yuandu and the capital, it would take at least three or four months to return normally, but he returned in just two months. Wouldn't he be tired?

The Queen Mother said to him, "Then don't sit here anymore. Go back and have a rest!"

As she spoke, she pushed Shang Yue a few times.

Shang Yue also stood up and said, "Then mother, I will go back to rest first." He glanced at the two little guys who were eating cakes with crumbs all over their mouths, "Xuan'er Ci'er, do you want to stay here with your grandmother or go back with your father?"

Le Ci found the opportunity to speak in the midst of her busy schedule, "Father, please go back first! I will have lunch with the Royal Grandmother at noon."

Le Xuan found time to chime in, "My brother and I will accompany the Imperial Grandmother."

When the Queen Mother heard what the two said, she touched their heads tenderly.

Shang Yue returned to Changle Palace alone.

Originally, he told the Queen Mother that he wanted to rest as an excuse because he was afraid that Nan Yan would not wake up. But when he returned to Changle Palace and saw the person sleeping soundly, he suddenly felt sleepy.

He took off his coat and climbed into bed beside her, falling asleep almost as soon as he lay down.

It was already noon when he woke up again. He turned around and saw that the person next to him was still sleeping soundly, with no sign of waking up.

He got out of bed quietly, put on his clothes and went out.

Wang Dequan came forward immediately and said, "Your Majesty, would you like to order some food?"

When going to the border this time, Shang Yue did not bring Wang Dequan with him because of his old age. Before going to bed, Shang Yue sent someone to inform Wang Dequan to come over. Only then did he learn the news that his emperor had returned.

Shang Yue waved his hand, "Wait a minute, wait until Yu'er Zhizhi comes back before serving the meal."

Just as he finished speaking, he heard his daughter's excited voice, "Father~"

Lezhi came running over excitedly, like a butterfly with its wings spread.

Although Le Yu, who was following behind, did not run, his pace quietly quickened, not much slower than Le Zhi who was running. The joy flashing in his eyes could not be ignored.

She threw herself into Shang Yue's arms, "Father, when did you come back? I missed you so much."

Shang Yue hugged the little girl, patted her head gently and said, "Father came back last night."

He let go of the little girl, looked at his son who had become more stable, nodded with satisfaction, and patted Le Yu's shoulder again, "You've grown taller, stronger, and more stable."

"It seems that you have been working hard during the time when the emperor was away. The emperor is very happy."

A smile suddenly appeared in Le Yu's eyes.

Shang Yue is the person Le Yu admires the most. He has always regarded him as his role model. Ever since he was old enough to understand, he wanted to be the same person as his father.

Now hearing him praising himself like that, he suddenly became anxious and excited.

However, no matter how happy he was, he still didn't show it very clearly, and smiled reservedly, "Thank you, father, for your praise."

While they were talking, the palace servants had already brought the meal to the table.

"Let's go, let's go eat first."

"it is good."

Le Zhi was skipping around holding onto Shang Yue's left arm, while Le Yu was walking on the right.

Once they sat down, they found that there were only three of them. Le Zhi asked, "Father, why are there only three of us? Where are Mother and my brothers?"

"Xuan'er and Ci'er are in the Cining Palace accompanying your royal grandmother! As for your queen mother..." When Shang Yue met his daughter's innocent big eyes, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face, and he pretended to look away as if nothing had happened.

"I came back last night and talked to your mother until very late. She didn't get much rest last night and is resting now!"

"Oh I got it."

Shang Yue was afraid that his daughter would ask more questions, so he picked up a piece of her favorite dish with chopsticks and put it in her bowl. "Hurry up and eat! Otherwise, the food will get cold and taste bad."

"Okay, thank you, Father."

Lezhi was instantly distracted by him and focused on her food.

Le Yu looked at his father with a puzzled look in his eyes.

He is eight years old now, and he is no longer the same person who allowed his father to lie to him when he was three years old. He does not believe that his mother goes to sleep because she is chatting with his father.

If they were really chatting, why did the emperor wake up while mother was still sleeping?

When Shang Yue turned around, he saw his son looking at him with strange eyes. He couldn't tell what the look was, but he felt very guilty.

"Why don't you eat, Yu'er?"

He picked up some of Le Yu's favorite dishes and put them in his bowl. "This is what you like. Eat it quickly."

"Thank you, Father."

Le Yu withdrew his gaze and began to eat seriously.

Shang Yue immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The older these kids get, the more problems they have and the harder it is to fool them.

After lunch, when he returned to the room, he saw beads of sweat on Nan Yan's forehead due to the heat, so he asked the palace servants to add a few more ice basins in the hall.

The coolness slowly dissipated in the hall, and Nan Yan's frown slowly relaxed.

Shang Yue casually picked up a book and leaned against the couch. He read for a while, then glanced at Nan Yan and felt that the life of a god was just like this.

It was already afternoon when Nan Yan woke up. She slowly opened her eyes and heard the sound of pages turning.

Turning his head to the side, he saw a man in a white brocade robe, with his hair tied up with a jade crown. He was leaning on the couch with a casual posture, attracting everyone's attention.

It wasn't a dream, he really came back.

Perhaps her gaze was too scorching, and Shang Yue noticed it. He moved his dark eyes from the book to look over.

"Yan'er, are you awake?"

He immediately put aside the notes in his hand, stood up and strode over.

"Is it still uncomfortable? Is your waist sore?"

Before Nan Yan could say anything, he turned around and picked up the Tremella and Snow Pear Soup that was specially prepared for her from the table and walked over to her.

"Yan'er, drink some Tremella and Snow Pear Soup to moisten your throat first."

"Okay." Nan Yan's voice was a little hoarse when she spoke.

She propped herself up with her arms, wearing the pajamas that Shang Yue had changed for her, and drank a bowl of Tremella and Snow Pear Soup as the man fed her spoonful by spoonful.

Then I got up and washed.

Fortunately, after sex last night, he not only gave her a bath and changed her pajamas, but also gave her a massage for a while, so her waist was not so sore anymore.
