Chapter 264: 264: Acting Like a Father
Translator: 549690339 |
The palace maids of Crystal Frost Hall pushed Jiang Ning’s wheelchair, with two wet nurses carrying the children and following beside her.
As for Li Hongyuan, Jiang Ning couldn’t see him, but she could hear his footsteps and knew he was right behind them.
The Crystal Frost Hall was as warm as spring.
The two children were wrapped up quite thickly, and Jiang Ning thought of having the wet nurses unwrap the small blankets outside, but before she could act, she saw Li Hongyuan already standing by Lingzi’s wet nurse, helping to unwrap Lingzi’s blanket.
He looked at Lingzi very gently, and his movements were very skilled.
After removing Lingzi’s blanket, he poked her little face with his finger, then turned to Wenzan’s wet nurse and said, “It’s hot here. Let First Brother wear less.”
Calling them ‘First Brother’ and ‘Second Brother’ was an affectionate term used for the sons in a family.
Jiang Ning observed that Li Hongyuan really loved these twins.
Although he himself looked like a handsome eighteen or nineteen-year-old youth, the way he cared for Lingzi made him really look like a father.
Even the Emperor, who had been wearing a serious face, slightly softened his expression when he saw this scene.
Jiang Ning turned her head back and, with the help of the palace maids, got up to bow.
The Emperor said, “My dear girl, there is no need for you to bow in my presence. Sit down and make yourself comfortable.”
Li Hongyuan bowed and the Emperor snorted heavily. He didn’t tell him to rise nor did he spare him a good look, clearly very unhappy with him.
It was obvious that this incident had angered the Emperor greatly.
The Emperor spoke to Jiang Ning in a gentle tone, “My dear girl, come here and bring the boy and girl twins. Let me have a good look at them.”
Jiang Ning didn’t move, but she had the wet nurses bring the twins over.
The Emperor looked at the two adorable little ones and couldn’t help but smile.
He touched one and looked at the other, laughing, “Although my appearance is not attractive, my descendants are getting better and better. Ning’er, it’s all thanks to you.”
Jiang Ning laughed and said, “No, it’s all thanks to my mother.”
The Emperor’s face stiffened slightly, showing a trace of awkwardness.
In the end, it was indeed Lin Zizi’s contribution.
Jiang Ning’s appearance was inherited entirely from Lin Zizi. As for the Prince of Yu, Li Hongyuan, he inherited Concordina Jin’s beauty, but Concordina Jin was initially found as a stand-in for Lin Zizi.
Speaking seriously, if Jiang Ning didn’t have a leg disability, there indeed wouldn’t be any other person in Chang’an City whose appearance would be a better match for the Prince of Yu.
But her leg problem was the biggest drawback.
Because of this, most people felt that she was unworthy of the Prince of Yu.
Despite the Jiang family forcing the annulment, the fact that the Jiang family was so overbearing and protective of their daughter made everyone envious, but in reality, those noblewomen were happy.
Now that Jiang Ning, a disabled girl who didn’t match the Prince of Yu, was gone, the position was vacated for the Prince of Yu to marry a healthy and wealthy noblewoman.
In the end, the source of the boy and girl twins’ good looks could be traced back to Lin Zizi.
The less attainable Lin Zizi was, the more the Emperor found her to be the epitome of beauty, and the more he couldn’t forget her.
Jiang Ning felt that the Emperor’s obsession with Lin Zizi had seeped into his very bones.
At that moment, the Emperor looked at the boy and girl twins with eyes filled with love and affection, even more tender than when he looked at the Prince of Yu.
The Emperor reached over and picked up Wenzan to tease him. He only handed the child back to the wet nurse when the little one puckered his lips and was about to cry.
Laughing, the Emperor asked Jiang Ning, “Ning’er, is everything all right at your home? I heard you and your mother were frightened the other day.”
“Thanks to Your Majesty’s grace, my mother and I are all well.”
Indeed, it was all thanks to his grace.
If it wasn’t for him deliberately plotting against his own son, there wouldn’t have been such a mess..
