The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1931

Chapter 1931: Chapter 961: Top-Tier Treatment (Dragon and Phoenix Twins Extra)

Since ascending the throne, Shangguan Yun changed the name of the emperor’s Sleeping Palace to Fenglin Palace.

In April, Shengdu has the mildest climate of the year, neither hot nor cold, not dry nor damp.

Shangguan Yun sat in the study room of Fenglin Palace, reviewing memorials. On her desk were two picture frames brought from Zhan Country by the Shadow Division on Gu Jiao’s instructions, containing portraits of the dragon-phoenix twins.

Whenever she was exhausted by court affairs, just looking at the portraits of the twins would make all her fatigue vanish.

She glanced at the dragon-phoenix twins, with a trace of doting and longing in her eyes.

They’ve been born for so long, yet she hasn’t seen the two little ones in person.

It’s said that Jiaojiao and Ahen are coming to Yan Country, but the dragon-phoenix twins are still too young to handle the long journey and will likely stay in Zhan Country.

It’s a pity not to see them while they’re young.

Shangguan Yun sighed.

Suddenly, Wu Sixi walked in with small steps and bowed: "Your Majesty."

Seeing his expression, Shangguan Yun knew someone was here again. She helplessly asked, "Who is it this time?"

The beauties of the Imperial Harem really can’t be quiet, creating all kinds of encounters or offering themselves every night.

Before she became the princess, she thought only women’s means of competing for favor were tricky, but after becoming the emperor, she realized that when men become coquettish, women hardly stand a chance.

Some little vixens are quite alluring.

Wu Sixi smiled and said: "It’s the National Master, sir."

Shangguan Yun paused with her pen: "Ye Qing?"

A quarter of an hour later, Ye Qing arrived at Shangguan Yun’s study room, holding a child in each arm.

Those in the know would say he had something to report; those not in the know would think he barged in with children, demanding Shangguan Yun take responsibility for him and the kids.

Everyone in Fenglin Palace was dumbfounded.

No wonder Her Majesty the Empress is indifferent to the various handsome men of the Imperial Harem, turns out the seductive National Master Ye beat them to it!

"Ye Qing, what are you doing here?"

Shangguan Yun was equally bewildered.

In the middle of the night, a man showing up with kids, wearing an indescribable expression—it was terrifying however you thought about it!

"I didn’t really do anything to you, did I?"

Are these kids yours?

Did you go to Dark Night Island for so long to avoid a ten-month pregnancy and give birth alone?

Shangguan Yun was thunderstruck by her own absurd flash of thought!

She shook her head like a rattle, waiting for Ye Qing to give her a reasonable explanation.

Ye Qing gently placed the children on the table and took the small medicine box from his back basket, placing it on the table as well.

Then Shangguan Yun was dumbfounded again.

Firstly, she had the portraits of the dragon-phoenix twins, and she looked at them day and night, having long imprinted their appearance in her mind.

Sure, there are always differences between a portrait and a real person, but the differences between people shouldn’t be that big, right?

The two little ones, one a spitting image of Little Jiaojiao, the other a little Xiao Ahen, they must be biologically related!

And this little medicine box, it’s clearly Gu Jiao’s, unmistakable!

"Jiaojiao and Ahen are here?" Shangguan Yun excitedly asked.

Ye Qing was terrified, half of his soul seeming not to have returned to his body. He expressionlessly said: "No, just these two."

Shangguan Yun: "..."

Zhan Country, Princess Residence.

Gu Jiao’s fury filled the entire residence, even Xiao Hen dared not provoke her.

Her little fists clenched with cracking sounds.

"You’re asking for trouble to be chopped up as firewood!"

No need to guess where the little medicine box took them, the National Master Hall’s Operating Room, betting a pack of spicy strips!

She’s not worried about no one noticing. That operating room is guarded by dead soldiers; if the children cry, Ye Qing would be called.

"This little medicine box is getting naughtier and more capable."

Once it could only teleport itself, now it can bring along the dragon-phoenix twins.

Does this mean its energy is gradually recovering?

The reason for this question is because Gu Jiao suspected early on that tearing through space-time is not easy for the little medicine box and may deplete all its energy.

This is probably why when she first arrived, she saw a battered little medicine box.

Gu Jiao propped her chin with both hands, muttering: "So, what’s the origin of this little medicine box? How many surprises will it bring when fully restored?"

Hmm, or perhaps, fright.

...

Since the dragon-phoenix twins set off early, the originally planned journey for three days later was changed to a morning departure.

"Mother, don’t worry too much about me, I’ll be back soon..."

Xiao Hen hadn’t finished his reluctant farewell speech when Princess Xinyang threw his luggage onto the carriage: "Remember to bring Yangyang and Congcong back when returning to Zhan Country."

So love can indeed fade away, right? 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Little Jingkong spread his hands and laughed, "There’s Long Yi!"

Xiao Hen was speechless.

—The whole family is full of big shots, with too many resources.

Little Jingkong, still with his hands on his hips, said proudly, "Hmph! Don’t think you can monopolize Jiaojiao!"

Xiao Hen didn’t argue with him, but said calmly, "Little Shiyi."

The King of the Horses galloped over like lightning, making a sharp turn at the gate of the Marquis Residence, almost splitting its hooves!

Little Jingkong’s attention was successfully diverted: "Oh? Little Shiyi is here! Jiaojiao, can I ride Little Shiyi?"

"Sure." Gu Jiao replied.

Completely unaware he was being set up by his mischievous brother-in-law, he grandly rode Little Shiyi!

The Black Wind King led the entire convoy, its gaze icy and aura powerful. Even though it wasn’t heading to war, just leisurely walking down the bustling street, it still exuded a murderous aura of clanging weapons and battling horses.

At seventeen, it was fortunate not to have aged. It could still create more legends.

Gu Jiao didn’t allow riding at galloping speed in the street, so Little Jingkong and the King of the Horses were quite stifled. Once they finally left the Capital City, the two joyfully galloped along the expansive and flat Official Road.

"Little Shiyi! Faster! Faster!"

"Wahoo! I’m flying!"

"Hahaha!"

"The pesky brother-in-law can’t catch up!"

The entire Official Road echoed with his carefree little voices.

The King of the Horses thought: I wish to remind you, Jiaojiao can’t catch up either~

Little Jingkong hadn’t flaunted for long when a heavy rain poured down on them, soaking them to the bone.

This year, the rain was particularly abundant along the journey. After Zhan Country, it rained in Yan Country; after the border pass, it rained in the Central Plains, causing Steward Zheng’s old aching legs to flare up!

While the group was miserably trudging along the road, the dragon and phoenix twins were comfortably lying inside the most resplendent Fenglin Palace in Yan Country, snuggled in soft warm bedding, covered with lightweight silky blankets, enjoying the super luxurious treatment of ten nannies.

However, they were used to baby formula, and refused to drink breast milk, so the nannies were only responsible for putting them to sleep.

Originally, Shangguan Yun and Ye Qing were quite worried about the babies’ food supply, but unexpectedly, Ye Qing accidentally knocked the little first and kit off the table.

The little first and kit hit the ground with a thud, and spat out a can of baby formula.

Then, it clicked again, spitting out two baby bottles.

A stunned Ye Qing: "..."
