Hua Xiaochan was speechless.
Xiao Wu raised his hand and said in a calm tone, “”Let me try.”
Hua Xiaochan gasped and instinctively reached out to protect the baby boy. She quickly said, “No need, no need. A child who doesn’t cry is quite obedient. I’ll let the imperial doctor take a look later.”
Xiao Wu made an “oh” sound and stopped in his tracks.
Xia Ji didn’t look at her again.
This girl was clearly identical to Xia Xiaosu, so why was her personality different?
He became like a robot, as if there was something wrong with his brain.
Moreover, when he left, Little Su was the uncrowned king of the north. How could she be a maid here?
There were too many questions. He thought about it for a while and suddenly felt hungry. An instinctive sense of grievance welled up in his heart, making him start to cry loudly. Tears flowed down his cheeks.
Little Wu curiously tilted her head and watched him cry.
Hua Xiaochan panicked, but she quickly remembered that as a mother, she could only do three things.
The first was feeding.
The second was to pee.
Third, shake it.
If the three of them took turns, one of them would always be right.
Hua Xiaochan started from the first one and succeeded.
She let out a sigh of relief, and her face suddenly lit up with joy. She had just said that her son wouldn’t cry, and now he was crying in the blink of an eye. She couldn’t help but smile from the bottom of her heart as she looked at Xia Ji tenderly. She was afraid that the gentleness would fall out of her hands and melt in her mouth. She doted on him as much as she could.
Because, if nothing unexpected happened, this son would be the only person she could rely on in the future. He would also be her only family member.
Tian Ll naa yet to come to see ner son, ana Hua maocnan•s neart was alreaay dead. She sniffed, and the wind in the distance carried the faint smell of the flames of the pill furnace, the smell of medicinal herbs, and some noises…
Hua Xiaochan was not surprised.
The Son of Heaven sought immortality, and the Imperial Advisor of the sect helped him refine pills. This was the Divine Golden Elixir, the Yellow and White Elixir.
But …
The monarch was not the monarch, the subject was not the subject, and how could the state preceptor have the appearance of an expert at all?
As he walked, he saw the palace maids looking as if they wanted to strip the palace maids naked and throw them on the bed. When he saw the imperial concubines, he did not restrain himself.
And Tian Zi didn’t care.
To be precise, now…The sect was the heavens.
In the dynasties, even the aristocratic families of the mortal world, nobles, tycoons, from the daughters of noble families to the daughters of small families, as long as they were taken by the people of the sects, there was an 80 to 90 percent chance that they would be taken away.
The process of taking it was not forceful, but rather in line with the dynasty’s system.
However, if they couldn’t meet the requirements, then it would be a forceful act.
Hua Xiaochan did not understand. Many of those sect experts were no longer mortals. Logically speaking, their temperaments should also be extraordinary. Why did they become even more lustful?
How was he like a master? He was simply a villain who had gained power in a day.
She vaguely knew that if she wanted to break free from the shackles of mortal life, she would need a mysterious and vital resource-fire seed.
But whether it was the mystic cultivation method or the fire seed, they were all things strictly controlled by the sect. Let alone ordinary people, it was not easy for even the royal family to obtain them.
Hua Xiaochan was a little worried. This world was too scary.
It was too insecure.
She was afraid that she would not be able to protect her son.
At the thought of this, she looked at the sleeping baby boy dotingly and gently pulled the corner of the blanket for him. She stared at his calm long eyelashes and cute little mouth and could not help but kiss him gently.
The baby’s life became simple, eating, drinking, defecating, and sleeping.
Xia Ji didn’t pick any cultivation technique to learn as an infant. After all, he only needed to flip through the book to obtain the Level 9 Skill Orb.
All of his power was still hidden in his heart, including the 4-36 million
Dharma Forms, the terrifying Dharmakaya formed by the Nine Omen of One Realm, the 72 Divine Power Transformations, the Flying Dagger, Yin Yang, the storage space where the Underworld Blade and the Sea Calming Pearl were hidden, and the connection with the Fire Calamity World.
No, no, no.
He was the Fire Calamity World, just like how the Wu family’s ancestor was the netherworld.
He used this rare time to think about many things and calm down, including living as a human.
Half a year later, he finally saw his cheap father.
Or perhaps, to him, this was not his father at all. There was no blood relationship, no nurturing relationship. This was a stranger.
The emperor of Qi State had yellow skin and a somewhat hollow expression. It was obvious that this was the result of indulgence in sex and alchemy. However, his footsteps were very steady, which showed that he was a martial artist with a good foundation.
Since ancient times, no Son of Heaven could break free from the shackles of mortals, because no one wanted a Son of Heaven who could rule for a thousand years to appear.
Therefore, the emperor of Qi State was no exception. Unless he removed the throne and was accepted as a disciple by the sect behind Qi State, he would have a chance to come into contact with the method of immortality.
However, even if he came into contact with the Dharmic formulations, he might not have the opportunity and time to cultivate to the peak of the eleventh realm and extend his lifespan by a thousand years.
The emperor of Qi State was called Qi Xiu.
The reason why he came here was because he suddenly remembered that there was a concubine he had neglected. It seemed that this concubine had given birth to a son, so he came to take a look.
When he saw Hua Xiaochan, he remembered that she was Consort Chan.
Consort Chan was a typical marriage. She was a woman sent to the palace by the Hua family in order to protect their family’s small piece of land.
She was indeed beautiful when she first entered the palace.
However, after the initial novelty, it was no longer interesting.
Qi Xiu only took a glance and casually asked someone to assign two more sensible palace maids before leaving. He had many children and did not care about one more or one less.
That night, Xia Ji heard Hua Xiaochan cry for a long time and say a lot to him.
Winter passed and spring came. When summer came, Xia Ji would be one year old.
Xiao Wu held his little hand and walked slowly on the dirt, watching him learn to walk.
Colorful butterflies flew among the red and yellow flowers, and the newly opened lotus flowers gave off a faint fragrance.
Hua Xiaochan sat in the pavilion and watched with a smile.
She, Xiao Wu, and her son, this was a real home.
Lil ‘Wu had also become a child. Sometimes, she would even imitate Xia Ji’s actions and speak like him.
The warm sunlight fell from the sky, but it was still scorching hot at noon.
Hua Xiaochan asked the palace maid to make lunch. She mixed rock sugar mung bean soup with crushed ice to cool down.
She carefully carried her son and began to feed him.
She wouldn’t let Xia Ji leave her sight for even a moment, or else she was worried that the child would die in an accident.
Thus, Xia Ji endured this kind of meticulous care and lived with a girl who looked like Little Su but was not sure if she was Little Su.
He really liked this kind of life.
Especially after a thousand years of fighting, his heart and soul needed such warmth to heal.
In autumn, he could already hum a few simple words and could also support himself to stand up.
One morning, Fei Chan, who had never left him, walked out.
As soon as Chan Fei left, Xiao Wu came to the room and carefully watched over him.
Only in the afternoon did Chan Fei return. The moment she came back, she rummaged through the cabinets and found some gold and silver treasures from the jewelry box. Then, she hurriedly left.
When he returned, he was back, but not the gold, silver, and treasures.
She sighed softly, her eyes filled with worry.
Xiao Wu stared at her curiously.
Xia Ji also stared at her.
Only then did Chan Fei reveal a smile, using an apologetic and grateful tone to
say, “It’s nothing. I let Sister Wu take care ot the child tor the whole day.”
“Ah, I’m fine.”
“Sister Wu, go and rest.”
“Ah, alright.”
Xiao Wu walked to the door, turned around, and waved at the boy who had somehow given her a good impression.
Xia Ji reached out his right hand and moved his fingers up and down at her.
Xiao Wu smiled and closed the door.
After helping her son complete his daily routine, she gently began to speak to him.
“The new state preceptor is here. Today, he actually gathered all the concubines and said that he wanted to see which concubine had immortal bones…
Actually, he just wanted to see which concubine was willing to obey him.
His mother had given him many treasures from her family, but he was still not satisfied. He felt that his mother was just perfunctory…
Mother was a little worried. If he said something bad to Tian Zi, we wouldn’t know how to live in the future.
This place was already equivalent to the Cold Palace. They couldn’t really attack the Cold Palace, right?
Sigh, a little forbearance will spoil the plan. Mother will just give him the remaining treasures. ”
Fei Chan’s face was filled with worry.
Xia Ji listened quietly.
Chan Fei would never know that her son could completely understand what she was saying..
