Chapter 320 They've all grown up
Lu Wenzhou rushed into the yard, holding a bunch of wildflowers in his hand.

"Sister, sister! I'm back! Where are you?" Wen Zhou was carrying a small schoolbag on her back; she had just returned from school.

If you look closely, you can even see a cat's head peeking out of his little backpack.

Baihu was dizzy from being shaken around. "Can you slow down? I'm going to faint!"

The cat in his backpack was a white tiger transformed into a kitten to protect him.

Behind him followed Eunuch An, who was panting heavily.

"Hey! Young master, slow down!" Eunuch An almost couldn't catch up with him.

Wen Zhou ignored everyone's advice, grabbed the white tiger, held it in his arms, and skipped into the yard.

It was already late autumn outside the courtyard, and the maple leaves on the trees were fiery red, but inside the courtyard it was still as warm as spring.

The leaves are lush and green, and the flowers are in full bloom.

The osmanthus tree in the courtyard was covered with golden osmanthus blossoms, their fragrance spreading for miles.

Lu Yaoyao was picking osmanthus flowers on the tree, while the Emperor Emeritus was picking up fallen osmanthus branches on the ground.

Wenzhou finally found her sister in the tree and held up the wildflowers in her hand. "Sister, these are the chrysanthemums I gave you. Aren't they pretty?"

He picked them on his way home from school. The chrysanthemums by the roadside were small, and each one was exceptionally beautiful.

It also has a slightly bitter taste, which is my sister's favorite.

Upon seeing her grandfather, she ran over with a smile, "Grandpa, I'm back!"

The retired emperor stroked his beard and laughed heartily, "My dear grandson is back? Your sister is in the tree."

Looking at his grandson, the Emperor Emeritus felt that the days of enjoying his grandchildren were truly wonderful.

No need to spend all day looking at those memorials and getting a headache.

Lu Yaoyao poked her head out from between the osmanthus trees, "Wenzhou is back! Those flowers are really nice to me. How about I make you some osmanthus sugar cakes later?"

Wen Zhou looked up, her cheeks crinkling with a smile, "Okay! I love the sweet cakes my sister makes the most."

Lu Yaoyao jumped down from the tree and grabbed Wen Zhou's hand. This boy was already seven years old, and it was clear that he would grow up to be a monstrous and devastating figure.

Lu Yaoyao pinched his cheek before helping him pick up the fallen osmanthus blossoms. Wen Zhou followed along.

"Grandpa, weren't you going to the village to get radishes from Old Zhou? Are you still going?" Lu Yaoyao asked while picking osmanthus flowers.

Grandfather saw that the radishes grown by Old Man Zhou were big and juicy, so he insisted that Old Man Zhou leave some for him.

He finally learned how to make radish cake and was thinking that he would cook a meal of radish cake for Wenzhou himself when he came back from school.

To be honest, she didn't think much of her grandfather's cooking.

The retired emperor slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing, "I almost forgot! I was so busy picking osmanthus flowers with you that I decided to take the medicine you prescribed for his grandson with me."

Then they went to the pharmacy, took the medicine, and left with Grandpa An.

Seeing the mess of osmanthus blossoms on the ground, Lu Yaoyao resignedly began to clean up.

"Luckily, Wen Zhou helped me pack," Lu Yaoyao said with a smile.

Wen Zhou chuckled, "Helping my sister with chores is what I want to do most."

As if remembering something, her pretty face turned sour. "Sister, isn't it good for us to stay here? Why do we want to go back?"

From a young age, he traveled all over the country with his older sister and grandfather, living a very comfortable life.

They had finally found a good place to settle down, but less than two years later, they were going back to Kyoto.

He truly couldn't bear to leave his friends here and the leisurely life he lived here.

Father Emperor said that after returning this time, he will be studying state affairs in the palace, and he will never have the chance to come out again. Lu Yaoyao smiled and patted his head, "You've grown up. You have to go back and learn to handle state affairs. You are the future Crown Prince. Do you think you only want to play?"

Over the years, they would return to Kyoto every now and then, both for family reunions and to prevent Wen Zhou from becoming estranged from his father and mother.

As a result, this kid got carried away and didn't want to go back.

This is not possible!

In recent years, she has been specifically training Wen Zhou, hoping that he will become the future emperor of the Great Yu Dynasty, understand the hardships of the people, and be a wise ruler.

Wen Zhou grumbled unhappily, "Can't my brothers be emperors? Why do I have to be one?"

The year after they went out to travel and play, their mother gave birth to twin brothers, who are now five years old.

Wouldn't it be better to make them emperors?

Why must he be made emperor?
Wen Zhou harbored endless resentment.

"Do you know why we can't let our younger brothers be emperors?" Lu Yaoyao decided to teach him a lesson and make him understand.

Wen Zhou blinked. "Why?"

Lu Yaoyao washed the osmanthus flowers she had prepared in water. "Because the Great Yu Dynasty does not allow twins to be emperors. Twins look exactly alike, so who knows who will end up on the throne?"

"It's not that I want to speculate about my own younger brothers, it's just the rule, and you can only suffer in return."

Throughout history, there have been many dynasties where twin emperors encountered problems, such as those before the Great Yu Dynasty.

That emperor had only one empress, who gave birth to three sets of twin sons. As a result, they fought each other for the throne, and in the end, the dynasty didn't need anyone else to destroy it; they destroyed themselves.

After the establishment of the Great Yu Dynasty, if a concubine gave birth to twins, she would not have the right to inherit the throne and could only become a leisurely prince.

Her two younger brothers were just little kids who did nothing but play all day and had no interest in the throne at all.

Such a heavy burden could only fall on Wen Zhou's shoulders.

Lu Wenzhou pouted, "If I had known that my sister and I were twins, I wouldn't have had to inherit the throne."

Lu Yaoyao's eye twitched, and she wondered to herself, "They're even thinking of having twins with me?"
If she hadn't been reborn into her mother's womb and helped her mother and father improve their health, where would these three brats have come from?
"Alright! You're still a long way from growing up! Let's think about what to eat tonight first." Lu Yaoyao took the washed osmanthus flowers to the kitchen.

She wouldn't let her grandfather into the kitchen; he'd burned it down several times already.

Seeing Lu Yaoyao go to the kitchen, Wen Zhou was left alone, feeling depressed.

Why is his life so miserable!
That evening, the Emperor Emeritus's radish cake still hadn't been made; it had been burned into a pot of charcoal.

That's some progress; at least the kitchen wasn't burned down.

The courtyard was very quiet and peaceful at night, and everyone was sleeping soundly.

Only when Lu Yaoyao entered the space did she see the huge map in front of her, with the flashing red dots on it particularly glaring.

"Yaoyao, is this your tenth tail? How come it's so close to the Immortal Realm?" The white tiger tilted its head, its eyes full of disbelief.

For years, Lu Yaoyao had been trying to sense her last remaining connection, but to no avail.

Just as she was about to go to sleep tonight, she sensed something was wrong with the space. After entering, she discovered that the map had changed.

Lu Yaoyao smiled with satisfaction. "It seems we'll be able to leave here soon."

Now that her tenth tail has appeared, it proves that her time here is running out.

"Great! I want to go see other worlds too!" The white tiger frolicked happily in the space.

Lu Yaoyao smiled and went back to her room to sleep.
