Chapter 221: The Mother and the Son Chat at Night (Monthly Tickets 300 plus more)
After Mu Yingbao and her mother finished their meal, they sat by the fire, stirring the burning charcoal with a small wooden stick.
Someone came over and said that the master said that it was late at night and cold, so we should go into the tent and rest.
Mu Yingbao looked in the direction the man pointed and saw two tents of the same size.
He called Brother Hui to go over there and said that the young master and the master were in the same tent, the one next to Mu Yingbao.
"Mother, I want to be with you." Brother Hui whispered to Mu Yingbao. The person who was passing on the message thought that this was not okay. Even if they were biological mother and daughter, as a son,
The child is so old now, it is not appropriate to sleep with his mother! What's more, they are not biological mother and son at all.
But how could he dare to say it?
I thought, the little boy is not sensible, but the adults are sensible.
"Okay, I want to be with my son too." Mu Yingbao agreed immediately. The one who brought the message almost fell down when he ran away. "Then go get the bedding, son." Brother Hui was happy. "Wait, are you my son? You're so stupid, you don't mind the trouble of moving here and there, why don't we just live in this tent?" Mu Yingbao tapped Brother Hui on the forehead, and the two of them walked into the tent that originally belonged to the father and the father. There was no bed in the tent, and two quilts were laid side by side on the felt blanket. Although the quilts were not made of high-grade silk, they were brand new. "We need to rest." Brother Hui said coldly when he saw his father's men following in.
The subordinate quickly responded and walked out, looking embarrassed. How should he explain this to his master?
The man had just walked out of the tent and had not yet figured out how to report to his master when he saw his master coming towards him.
"What's wrong?" Xue Wenyu asked in a good mood.
"The young master insisted on staying in the same tent with that guy, and I didn't dare to persuade him." The honest man reported.
Xue Wenyu was not annoyed when he heard this. The way that woman interacted with children was different from others. She was also a casual person and had done many things that were not in accordance with the rules.
Besides, the current situation is special, and it is more appropriate and safer for Brother Hui to be with her now.
"Go down." Xue Wenyu waved to his men and walked into the tent originally prepared for the woman.
I took off my robe and lay down, but I couldn't sleep at all.
The two tents were close to each other, and the conversation between the mother and daughter could be heard clearly.
"Mother, tell me a story." Brother Hui lay flat in the quilt, staring at the pattern on the top of the tent.
"Okay, what story do you want to hear?" Mu Yingbao took off his quilt, took off his outer robe, put on his inner clothes, lifted the quilt, and lay on his side facing Brother Hui.
"Mother, I remember you once told me the story of the substituting prince for a cat. You clearly wanted to tell me that story, but later you said that I was too young to listen to it. Mother, I'm grown up now, can I listen to it?" Brother Hui also faced Mu Yingbao.
Brother Hui suddenly wanted to hear this story. Mu Yingbao knew how heavy the child's heart was.
He
In the past, the child only felt sorry for himself because he lost his mother when he was young, but now that he knows his life story, he finds it so bloody and cruel.
Therefore, he wanted to hear the story that Mu Yingbao had mentioned before.
EB
The story about the palace struggle is also very bloody.

"Well, this is what you wanted to hear. Don't blame me if you are scared and can't sleep later." Mu Yingbao joked casually.
Brother Hui nodded vigorously. Even if he didn't listen to the scary story, he still wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
He really wanted to hear the tragic story his mother told him, which was even more tragic than his own life experience.
E
NS?
"Legend has it that there was an emperor whose two concubines were pregnant at the same time. Obviously, whoever gave birth to a son would most likely be made the queen. Concubine Liu had long been jealous and feared that Concubine Li would give birth to a son and be made queen, so she and the palace chief steward Guo Huai devised a poisonous plan..."
Not only was Brother Hui fascinated by the story told by Mu Yingbao, but Xue Wenyu next door was also attracted by the story.
How could such a heinous thing happen? How come I have never heard of such a story?
When Xue Wenyu heard that Guo Huai had colluded with the midwife to replace the dragon son born to Concubine Li with a skinned raccoon, he punched the ground in anger.
Suddenly, a deep hole was smashed into the ground.
"What's the noise?" Mu Yingbao in the next tent was startled and asked Brother Hui.
"Whose tent has a bug? Step on it with your feet, mother. Please continue your story." Brother Hui urged anxiously.
"Well, let's continue." Mu Yingbao didn't think much about it and continued speaking.
After the story ended, Brother Hui burst into tears; "Although the prince who was replaced suffered a lot, he was finally reunited with his biological mother." But he had nothing.
"Mother, is that dragon throne so good? Is it so tempting?" Brother Hui asked with a sob.
Seeing the child like this, Mu Yingbao felt heartbroken, but this was an unavoidable fact that he had to face!

"Whoever can sit on that chair will have the power of life and death over all the people in the world. The whole world belongs to him, and he can enjoy the best material conditions and the most beautiful women. Tell me, is the temptation big enough?" Mu Yingbao sighed and explained to him according to his own understanding.
She didn't want to lie and just say something nice to satisfy him out of concern that such an explanation might corrupt him.
Brother Hui is an honest and kind-hearted child. Mu Yingbao believes that he will calm down and think about the problem after his confusion.
"Then mother, if you were a man, would you also want to be the emperor?" Brother Hui looked at Mu Yingbao and asked. Mu Yingbao shook his head and smiled; "I am a man and I would not want to be an emperor. To be a wise ruler, you must care about the people of the world and solve the sufferings of the common people. How tiring it is. To be a tyrant, you can do whatever you want, but if you go too far, it will cause civil unrest and palace coup. You may be killed in your sleep by a little palace maid or eunuch.
So, why should I be the emperor?
By the way, Brother Hui, I have to correct you. The emperor is not necessarily a man, a woman can do it too. Moreover, a capable woman can make the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country will be prosperous and strong.
"Mother, stop trying to make your son happy. How can a woman be the emperor? No one else would want to do that." Brother Hui thought that Mu Yingbao was making a random diagnosis just to make him happy.
Xue Wenyu in the next tent also shook his head and laughed helplessly. This joke was too outrageous!
"What's wrong with being a woman? Not only can a woman be an emperor, she can also be a constable or an official. Even though there are none now, that doesn't mean there won't be none in the future.
Don't be unconvinced. I tell you, it's not difficult to govern a country. As long as you put the interests of the people first and severely punish corrupt officials, that's enough. "Mu Yingbao took the opportunity to instill some correct concepts in him.
If this child really ascends the throne and becomes emperor in the future, he might adopt her advice and give women some opportunities.
Brother Hui became serious again, his mother was always right.
What happened to the woman? Take my mother for example. Even the old imperial doctors in their seventies and eighties were helpless against the wounded. But my mother cured him!
"Child, don't force yourself to make a decision. Listen to me and have a good sleep." Mu Yingbao reached out with a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from Brother Hui's cheeks.
"Don't envy the prince in the story. You are actually very lucky. Your unlucky father is really good to you. What's more, you have a mother who is as beautiful as a flower and everyone loves her, right?" Mu Yingbao tried her best to comfort the child.
Brother Hui thought for a moment, smiled and nodded, and pulled the quilt over himself; "Good night, mother."
"Good night, son. Sweet dreams."
"Child, don't force yourself to make a decision. Listen to me and have a good sleep." Mu Yingbao reached out with a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from Brother Hui's cheeks.
"Don't envy the prince in the story. You are actually very lucky. Your unlucky father is really good to you. What's more, you have a mother who is as beautiful as a flower and everyone loves her, right?" Mu Yingbao tried her best to comfort the child.
Brother Hui thought for a moment, smiled and nodded, and pulled the quilt over himself; "Good night, mother."
"Good night, son. Sweet dreams."
Listening to the mother and daughter next door saying goodnight to each other, Xue Wenyu didn't realize that the corners of his mouth had been raised for quite a while.
"You stinky woman, you are quite good at judging people." He muttered in a low voice. Do you want a divorce letter?
