With three little kids standing in front of him, Yin Huaixu spoke to them seriously and frankly.

"As it stands, I only have three sons, but there is only one throne.

Among you three brothers, only one can obtain the throne and become emperor.

But at the moment, I can’t tell who among you is more suitable to be the emperor.

All three of you will receive instruction from the Grand Tutor, who will teach you how to be a ruler.

When you are fifteen years old, I will examine all aspects of you, from how you behave as a human being, how you rule as a monarch, your political strategies, to your martial arts. I will examine you in all aspects.

At that time, I will choose someone from among you who is suitable to be the emperor and make him the crown prince.

In the next twelve years, I hope you will study hard and be a serious person.

The most important thing is harmony among brothers.

You are triplets, born from the same mother.

If you brothers plot against each other, it will make your mother sad.

I will not be lenient with you!"

As Yin Huaixu spoke, his face turned cold and his voice became stern.

The pressure he unconsciously exuded made the three little kids purse their lips tightly and stand up straight.

The eldest brother, Yin Chenxuan, stood out with a chubby face.

"Don't worry, father. The ministers will never play tricks on each other!"

Naituanzi's voice was childish and his pronunciation was unclear. His one sentence immediately broke the originally serious atmosphere.

Ying Xixi, who was sitting nearby and watching, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The eldest son pouted his lips, and his little voice sounded aggrieved, "Mom, are you laughing at Achen?"

Seeing this little aggrieved look, Ying Xixi's heart almost melted.

“No, Achen is so cute, how could mother laugh at you.

Come here, come here. Come here."

Ying Xixi greeted her sons.

The three little kids ran over with their short legs and threw themselves into their mother's soft and sweet arms.

"Your father has made it very clear just now. Although you are still young, you must remember it from now on.

You are brothers and sisters. In this world, besides your parents, you are the closest blood relatives.

You must not let external things hurt the relationship between brothers, understand?"

"Mother, what time do we have?"

Three little baby voices answered in unison.

Yin Huaixu stood aside with a stern face, "Now that you know, get out of your mother's arms! Stand up straight!

You're already three years old, but you're still clinging to your mother like a baby!"

The three little kids left their mother's arms angrily.

"Father, you are jealous that we can be hugged by mother!"

The youngest complained angrily.

Yin Huaixu choked, "You kid!"

The third little one pouted and threw himself into his mother's arms again, seeking protection.

Ying Xixi couldn't laugh or cry.

"Ah Xu, the children are only three years old. They are little babies anyway. You can stop being so harsh on them now."

The three little balls of milk nodded their heads in unison, and their chubby cheeks swayed.

Yin Huaixu held his forehead, closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Everything this strict father says is wrong now.

Ying Xixi pinched the little balls of flesh one by one and said, "Remember what Daddy and Mommy said to you just now, go play."

"Good~"

The three little kids bowed politely and left.

As soon as the children left, Yin Huaixu sat next to Ying Xixi and leaned on her as if he had no bones.

"Xixi, do you love the children more than me?"

Yin Huaixu looked aggrieved and acted like a spoiled child.

Ying Xixi looked at his handsome face and couldn't even get angry.

“The kids are three years old, why are you still asking this question?

You are already old, why are you still competing for favor with a three-year-old baby? "

Yin Huaixu: “???”

"I'm already old?" Yin Huaixu smiled, because he was angry.

"Xixi, do you dislike my age? I'm only five years older than you!"

Ying Xixi cleared her throat and said, "Don't be angry, I don't dislike your age.

This is just something I said casually.

You are more than 20 years older than the children, why are you still competing with them for their affection?"

Yin Huaixu's long arms were wrapped around Ying Xixi's waist like an iron clamp.

"I don't care! Just tell me if you dislike my age!"

Not only do men not want to be told "no", they also don't want to be told they are old.

Ying Xixi now deeply understands this.

She had no choice but to coax Yin Huaixu like she was coaxing a child, "Ah Xu, you misunderstood, I love you so much, how could I dislike you.

You are so powerful, so handsome, and so gentle!"

Yin Huaixu's lips curled up so much from the praise that he couldn't suppress them anymore.

"Really? Then I'll believe you for now."

"How can it be temporary? You have to trust me all the time."

Ying Xixi held Yin Huaixu's face and kissed him gently to coax him.

It turns out that coaxing a man is just like coaxing a child.

........

When the triplets were five years old, Ying Xixi started considering having a second child.

She wanted to have a little girl.

A soft, cute and adorable little daughter.

She told Yin Huaixu about this.

Yin Huaixu hugged her and rubbed his chin against the top of her head.

"We can't decide whether to have a boy or a girl. What if it's still a boy?"

"Then keep having more children? Until you give birth to a daughter?"

Ying Xixi smiled and teased him.

Yin Huaixu imagined it and found it hard to accept the idea of ​​having many, many sons.

“Then let’s go to Kaiyuan Temple to burn incense and pray, hoping that our next child will be a daughter.

Then you won’t have to have so many sons.”

Ying Xixi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Ah Xu, why do you say that? It sounds like you don't want many sons?"

Yin Huaixu nodded honestly, "Yes, I think it's enough for us to have these three sons.

Sometimes having more sons is not necessarily a good thing.”

Ying Xixi was delighted, "You, the emperor, are truly unique.

Other emperors would wish they had dozens of sons so that they could show the prosperity of the royal family.

We only have three sons, do you think that's too many?"

Yin Huaixu hugged the person in his arms tightly, "That's different, I can't bear you to give birth too many times.

For a woman giving birth is like wandering on the brink of death.

I won’t ask you to have as many children as you want, as long as we have children.”

Ying Xixi rubbed Yin Huaixu's chest affectionately, "Then can I have another baby? I want a daughter, and the next baby will definitely be a daughter!

After I gave birth to my daughter, I decided not to have any more children. ”

"What if it's a son? Why not give birth to him?"

Yin Huaixu persuaded.

"Okay, okay, let's have one more child, no matter if it's a boy or a girl, and we won't have any more children after that."

Ying Xixi coaxed Yin Huaixu in return.

"Ah."

After they agreed to have a second child, Yin Huaixu's hands became a little restless.

Ying Xixi held his hand and said, "Ah Xu, it's still daytime now, try harder at night."

Yin Huaixu was also happy. "Only by working hard now can I show my efforts. How about working hard for a while now and continue working hard in the evening?"
