Seeing Li Chen carrying Liu He into the room, the other members of the Liu family looked at each other in surprise.
But at least for now, it seems that Prince seems to quite like Liu He
Liu Sidar hesitated to speak to Liu Sichun, then Liu Sichun said: “Let's go inside and attend first. It probably won't be bad news, maybe even good news.”
Even a single word from Li Chen, given his status and influence, would be enough for the Liu family's children to benefit from for a lifetime.
The Liu family followed Li Chen into the manor.
Most members of the Liu family were not qualified to serve inside the main hall.
Only Liu Sichun, Liu's uncle (from his father's side), and Liu Sidda could stay with him.
Li Chen sat in the main seat, letting Liu He sit on his lap, and smiled: "How old are you"
Liu He looked at Liu Sichun with pleading eyes, but when he heard Li Chen's question, he still answered obediently: "Three years old."
As he spoke, he extended three short, chubby fingers to emphasize his point.
Li Chen laughed heartily.
"His name is Liu He, right Did he take a courtesy name" Li Chen asked this question to Liu Sida.
Liu Siada hurriedly bent over slightly and respectfully replied, "Your Highness, I haven't started writing yet."
His heart pounded in his chest. Boldly, he said again, "Your humble servant begs Your Highness to bestow a name upon my son. Not only would this be a blessing for my son, but it would also be an honor for the entire Liu family."
Li Chen chuckled softly and said, "You're quite good at taking advantage of the situation."
Without waiting for Liu Sidar's reply, he directly said, "Bring me pen and ink."
Liu Sidar was overjoyed, and almost skipped over to fetch paper and ink, presenting them to Li Chen with both hands.
Li Chen glanced at Liu He, who exuded an aura of spiritual energy all over his body. After some thought, he picked up a brush and wrote two characters on the rice paper.
"Zhong Yu."
Li Chen put down his pen and said to Liu He, "Zhong Ling Yu Xiu, this child is full of energy. In the future, he will surely accomplish great things. These two words are given to him as a kind wish."
Liu Sida was overjoyed, he knelt before Liu He and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your thousand years of kindness."
Liu Sichun also had a faint smile on her face, while her Uncle Liu, the third son of her family, was almost so excited that he would pass out.
Only Liu He widened his eyes, staring blankly and at a loss.
As a child, Liu He couldn't stay in the hall for long. After a while, he started complaining of hunger, so Li Chen instructed Liu Sida to take him downstairs.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Liu Sichun thanked again after Liu Sidar and Liu He left.
"It's nothing, your Liu family does things diligently and responsibly. Many things would be difficult to handle if it weren't for you. Both the East Palace and the court would truly find it hard going. This is what you deserve."
Li Chen said with a deep meaning: "This Liu He, should be the next generation head of your Liu family, right"
Liu Sichun frowned, not understanding why Li Chen suddenly brought up this topic.
She is the current head of the family, but after all, she is a woman. Even if she never marries and even if she finds a son-in-law to live with her, her descendants would still be unable to inherit the Liu family fortune.
Even Liu Sichun couldn't change this.
Moreover, Li Chen had previously stated that Liu Sicun was forbidden from marriage without imperial decree.
With this decree in place, how dare any family or individual from among the hundreds of millions of subjects of the Great Qin Empire marry her
"The next generation is still young, and everything is yet to be known."
Liu Sichun pondered for a moment and then continued, "But this child has been given his name by the Prince. From birth, he already has a tremendous advantage."
"My words hold no weight. If they are unsuitable, replace them. This is a matter for your Liu family; I will not interfere. As for you... do you intend to remain in the Liu family forever"more.It's a pity about Xu Junlou.He hadn't yet seen Hou Yushu run naked to the capital.Apart from this, what Xu Junlou cared about most was the results of the imperial examination.He has a strong sens...
