The empress was having tea with his bun while Jin plays the Guqin, Xi Xi was resting with the bun the day was truly peaceful as if nothing could spoil it.
"Your imperial majesty" a servant said kowtowing
"I hope whatever you called me for is a good enough reason for you to disturb this empress time with his bun" he said almost angrily.
"His highness has visit"
Jianyu sit up with ears perked
"Older brother has visited" Jianyu looked a bit happily
Ning jie was gonna send him away but seeing his bun he changed his mind.
"Allow him in" he said gently
Immediately the little one's prideful steps came into the room,
"Imperial mother!" The boy yelled his name rudely
Ning Jie said nothing and just drank his tea
"Ah older brother" the sweet milky voice of Jianyu said
Yanlin looked aside to see a boy about 3 years younger than him.
"Who are you how dare you called me that"
Yanlin was startled when he heard lower growl
"Y-you mother! I thought I told you that I didn't want to see that thing again?!" He yelled
Ning jie said nothing paying attention to only his bun music and tea,
"Xi Xi its older brother don't you know" Jianyu said
Xi Xi purrs when Jianyu kept rubbing his fur
"How could you- mother!" Ning jie said
Ning jie put up his hand and Jin stops playing
"Older brother let's enjoy tea together" Jianyu you get up excited,
Jianyu held his arms with flustered cheeks Yanlin expressed pure disgust.
"Get away!" He yelled pushing Jianyu down
*slapped*
Yanlin held his cheek there was a red print on it this was the first time in his little life his ever been hit and by his imperial mother of all people.
"I-imperial mother" he stuttered
"Don't call me that you dare hit this one's son" he asked
Yanlin folded his lips then burst out
"I am your son I am your son you shouldn't have hit me mother you betrayed me" he said,
Yanlin froze when he saw Ning jie ice cold eyes looking down at him as if he was witnessing an disgusting bug.
"He's majesty I can expect to betray me since he doesn't like this empress but you- you weren't allowed you didn't have that luxury you motherless bastard" Ning jie said
The pain Ning jie had put up with just to take care of this bastard only to have him turned his back on as if he was just dead weight.
"Yanlin is not motherless you are mother you are mother" he kept on telling him with tears pouring down his cheek
"I am not your mother I'm your aunt go asked him asked him go ask your imperial father whom you love so much you abandoned this empress" Ning jie yelled
"Mother-"
"Don't call me that servants take the bastard away take him away"
"Imperial Mother you can't do this I am your son you this is your filial son-"
"You are un filial now go away you ungrateful child" Ning jie yelled
Feeling the Empress's temper becoming worse the servants immediately took the 1rst prince and get him out.
Jianyu pouts unhappily
"Mother you shouldn't be angry you will get sick" the worried bun said
"Oi oi my little bun is always thinking of his mother isn't he well don't worry this empress cultivation is high she won't easily be sick" Ning jie pauses for a moment.
'How did I get sick in the first place'
Ning jie held Jianyu closer it seems that things will get competitive soon.
'Wei Zihao you dare try to kill this empress it will not be well with you'
The emperor was in his room cultivating when sneeze
"My my it seems someone has ill intentions towards you" Xian said
"Have you finished investigating"
"No you should know that finding something like that would be a miracle"
"I didn't sign contract with a useless beast now go away Chángshòu flower" the emperor said
"Yes yes but first I'm gonna pay visit to the lovely empress"
The emperor took the bucket and threw it in his head
"You go look for the flower immediately"
