The Blessed

The two little buns were so afraid that they even didn'™t want to listen to their explanation. Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingxuan both felt so helpless, but they had to say it. Neither of them wanted to bury the seeds of resentment in their little hearts, or let them feel so sad.

"Wen, Wu, don't you even trust daddy now? Do you think I want your father to leave? Calm down and listen to me, OK?'

After exchanging an eye contact, Ling Jingxuan took the lead to persuade them. Hearing that, the two little buns looked up at them with tearful eyes, and only nodded dully after quite a while, clearly they were still reluctant to accept it. Ling Jingxuan stretched out his hand to pull them into his arms, saying while wiping the tears for them, "Wen, I think you should have guessed the identity of your father, but today I will still officially tell you that your father's full name is Yan Shengrui, yeah, that Prince Sheng who is shining with his exploits on the battlefield you have long heard of. He is the most honorable prince of our Qing Kingdom, and also the guardian angel of the civilians. He has the responsibilities to guard the land of our kingdom and those who live on it. He belongs to the battlefield.'

Though, he can use their love to imprison his actions, even let him stay away from the battlefield, he just couldn'™t. Yan Shengrui had never forced him to do anything, instead, he just indulged him to do anything he wanted to do. So, he also wouldn'™t force Yan Shengrui to make changes for him. He'™d wait for him here with the kids. Meanwhile, he also believed that his kids would understand.

"Is Prince Sheng the prince general?"

Ling Wen clenched his fists and didn't speak with his head down, but the small bun looked up at his father. His wish was to be a general, and the invincible Prince Sheng is his idol. He had long wished that he would go to the battlefield to kill the enemies with him. And now daddy told them that their father is Prince Sheng? Then he could make his dream come true?

"Hmm. Sorry my son, I didn'™t mean to hide it from you. You know, due to my special identity, if people know your presence, you will be put in danger. At least before I take you back to the capital to find your origin, I won'™t expose who I am. The reason I have to leave is because someone leaked the news that I went missing, so the enemies tried to attack our boarders again. Anyhow, I have to face this upcoming huge war and I must win. When I come back with gongs beating and banners flying, I will take you back to the capital. Don'™t you miss your Uncle Chu and Brother Yan? They are in the capital. Then, you can see each other everyday. So, stop crying, OK? I also don'™t want to leave.'

Reaching out to pick up the small bun and put him on his lap, Yan Shengrui looked at the big bun and said in a deep voice. If possible, how would he want to leave at this time? Compared with them, he didn'™t want to part with them more, but he couldn'™t. Once the troops of the three kingdoms united, even he couldn'™t cope with it. However powerful they were, they couldn'™t fight three forces together. Besides, as for the national power, both the East and West Kingdom were no weaker than them, or even stronger. So he couldn'™t be emotional now. He who held such a high position was also not omnipotent. Sometimes, he also had to make choices. That was reality.

They didn'™t know if the two little buns had understood or not or whether they already accepted it, anyway, neither said anything more. Ling Jingxuan keenly noticed that the tightly clenched fists of Ling Wen loosened a little. So he hurriedly pulled him over and strike while the iron is hot, 'œWen, you should both have listened to storytelling before, right? And that part about wars Tutor Zhang has ever told you, right? When the enemies come offending us, those who suffered first should be the bottom soldiers and the civilians. By then, can you imagine how many kids will lose their parents and how many parents will lose their kids? Now, only your father would solve this disaster and prevent more people getting harmed. And the price is he has to leave us temporarily for a few months. Wen, Wu, don'™t you think we are already very lucky compared with those who had died? I know you are afraid that your father may abandon us again like before. As for this thing, I guess I should have already explained to you. That year, the reason your father ditched us was because he had been set up and completely didn'™t know our existence. If he had known he got two so lovely sons, how would he have had the heart to leave you alone? The situation is totally different now. First, there'™s a time limit of your father'™s departure this time. He'™ll come back before your little brother is born. Second, our home is difference from before when we couldn'™t make decisions for ourselves. Now, who dare bully us again? Third, daddy believes your father still loves us and wouldn'™t leave us like before, and I will also never change back like before. So, Wen, Wu, don'™t be scared or hesitated. Just stay home with daddy and wait for your father to come back, OK?'

He believed that his kids would understand what he was saying. All along, he had gotten along with them like that.

"But..."

Ling Wen opened her mouth, but as he saw his father'™s affectionate eyes and daddy'™s expectations in the eyes, he lowered his head again. After a quite a while, he said using a nearly bumbling-like tone, "But I still can't bear to let father leave'¦'

"Neither can I!"

The next second, Ling Wu also tearfully fluttered into the arms of Yan Shengrui and sobbed. They could accept his departure, but they couldn'™t stop the dense reluctance spreading in the heart. All in all, they were only five years old children, how could they be as sensible as adults?
