"Jinglee, are you leaving?" Young County Prince Yan Chengfeng hugged Shen Jingli with tears in his eyes, "Don't go, okay? I don't want you to go. "
Shen Jingli was packing his luggage when he was suddenly hugged by someone from behind. Then he heard Young County Prince's soft sobbing.
After spending a few months with him, the Young County Prince had already developed a deep affection for him. Every night, he would have to listen to his stories before he would be willing to sleep.
Shen Jingli looked down at the little girl who was hugging him. She was 130 cm tall with a round body, her big eyes were filled with tears as she looked at him pitifully.
He reached out and rubbed Young County Prince's head, combing two small heads with steamed buns. He looked very much like a kid in a new year painting, soft and tender, making people want to put him in their hands and love him the moment they saw him.
"I'm not from the palace. I always have to go home." Shen Jingli relaxed his voice and explained in a gentle and relaxed voice.
"Then can't you treat this place as your home? If you treat this place as your home, we can live together. " Young County Prince shook his head and hugged Shen Jingli's waist tightly, "Is that alright? I will tell my mother that she definitely has a way. "
Hearing his words, Shen Jingli wanted to laugh, but was afraid of hurting the Young County Prince, so he forced himself to stop. The thoughts of a child were really too naive, they always thought things were so simple, and thought that as long as they had a heart, they could do everything.
"That won't do. You can't leave here and live with me in my house. I can't leave home and live here with you." Shen Jingli continued to persuade his.
Young County Prince immediately drooped his head, although he didn't know why Shen Jingli couldn't leave his home and live with him in the palace. However, he knew that he could not casually leave the palace, because he was a County Prince and a Twin County Prince. He could only leave the palace when he was married or married.
"But you can still come and play with me in the future. Tell Esteemed Empress to ask Eunuch Qin and Auntie Hong to bring you to my house. I'll take you to live in the manor for a few days. You can also go pick wild vegetables or fish in the hot springs."
"Really?" Young County Prince's eyes immediately lit up. Soaking hot springs, harvesting wild vegetables, fishing … This was something he had never experienced before. The outside world was so exciting. There were all kinds of things that could be fun.
"Really, you can even fly a kite with Xun Er and Huaixin. With Ying'er accompanying you, it's really impressive."
"I like Huaixin." Young County Prince looked up, his red eyes filled with smiles. "He's the same as me, I know a lot of things."
Shen Jingli looked at his smiling face and rubbed his little head, "Alright, you go out and play with Xun Er and the others first, I will pack my luggage and have Big Sister Jin Yu make you two some Double Skin Milk later."
"Alright." He turned around and ran out. Looking at his messy hair, Shen Jingli couldn't help but to laugh, as if rubbing it too smoothly. The two small buns were in a mess, and he felt a little guilty.
At noon, Shen Jingli kept his promise and made Jin Yu make the few children a pair of skin milk, and even steamed a plate of mountain medicine cake.
After they finished eating, they played around the garden for a while before being coaxed by Jin Yu and Nian Hua to sleep.
When they woke up, the emperor personally sent a carriage to send them back. The Young County Prince was very reluctant to part with Shen Jingli as he cried loudly while hugging Shen Jingli, until the empress promised that she would make Shen Jingli enter the palace to play with him in the future. Only then did he hold back his tears and allow Shen Jingli and the others to return to his residence.
After returning to the manor, Shen Jingli found out that Yang Ningyi had given birth to a son a few days ago. Because he was in the palace at the time, he did not send anyone to notify him.
Nanny Jin took off all the luggage from the carriage and told Shen Jingli about what had happened.
"A few days ago, the capital city was in chaos. Everyone was worried that the enemy would attack the capital city. There were even people who instigated the citizens to leave the city to seek refuge in their hometown and kill the soldiers who were guarding the city …" Nanny Jin said, then sighed, "Something happened in our residence as well. Fortunately, Second Master was decisive in handling matters and sold off the people who caused trouble, otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble they would have caused."
Mentioning those ingrate, the Nanny Jin became angry. The Madam had treated them so well, yet in such a critical moment, they had actually stolen some valuable things from the palace in order to seek refuge. This was because they were worried that the County Prince's Mansion would become the first place to be attacked when the enemy invaded the capital.
"What happened?" Shen Jingli asked.
A few days ago, everyone in the capital said that the enemy would soon break through the city gate and enter the city, so people in the city were worried, because they were worried that the enemy would kill in the city, and massacre the city. Everyone was worried that the enemy would kill in the city, and everyone wanted to leave the capital to hide, so someone encouraged them to make trouble, and let the city gates in the north open, and let everyone go take shelter.
Nanny Jin was so angry that she couldn't even speak smoothly. She panted and shook her head, not wanting to continue.
"Did you deal with it?" Shen Jingli brought his own things into the room. Young County Prince really liked him, before he left, he stuffed a lot of things inside, including cloth for tribute, spices for tribute, and a lot of strange things.
"Second Master sold them all. Those ingrate, they truly are all people that Lady Fei treated so well for nothing."
Shen Jingli didn't think that there was any problem with the water flowing down and the people moving up, but they shouldn't be lusting over something that didn't belong to them.
"Everyone has their own aspirations." Shen Jingli said before he continued to handle the pile of things that the Young County Prince had given him. Inside the pile, there was actually a pair of white fox skin, snow-white fur and it looked extremely beautiful.
Shen Jingli took out the white fox skin, intending to give Xun Er and Huaixin two sets of clothes. Then, he locked all the other things into the warehouse.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, where are you?"
Before he had even tidied up his things, he heard Mu Ke's loud noise. Shen Jingli walked out of the room and saw him flying in with a young man who looked to be very young, running behind him. He had a nervous expression on his face and reached out to stop him, but he was not as fast as.
"Sister-in-law, I heard that you came back today, so I came to see you. I wanted to ask if you were free to go to Third Grandpa's house tomorrow. We'll go together."
Shen Jingli looked past him to the young man behind him. Sensing his gaze, the young man clenched his fists and turned his face away shyly, his heart beating like a drum.
"Who did you bring?" ~ It looks like a Shuang-er, is she Mu Ke's friend? The tyrannical little tyrant actually had such a naturally lovely friend?
"Oh, you're talking about Xiao Yu." Mu Ke's smile was extremely bright, he turned and waved at the little boy, the young lad's face was flushed red, and after hesitating for a bit, he walked towards him.
"Greetings, County Prince Lord." he whispered.
"No need to be so reserved. Just call me sister-in-law." Mu Ke reached out to hold the young man's hand, and the young man's face became even redder.
He lowered his head and felt his cheeks heat up. He protested in a low voice: "This is against the rules, you can't."
"Why not? It will happen sooner or later anyway." Mu Ke curled his lips without a care.
Shen Jingli looked at them and savored their conversation. Could it be that they were...
He watched the two of them intently, his emotions churning with the surges of conjectures.
"Is he your lover?" Shen Jingli pointed to the young man and asked.
Mu Ke's eyes lit up, and then the corner of his mouth raised, as he hooked his arm around the young man's shoulders, "He's called Shiyu, the grandson of the Great Situ Clan's Great Elder."
Great Situ?
Shen Jingli thought back to the knowledge he had read about the position of an official in the imperial court. He remembered that the Great Situ was probably at the first rank, although it was a fake title and did not have any actual authority, but a first rank official's title was not given casually. Why would a family like this marry their son to Mu Ke who was at the same level?
Is he Twin?" "Actually, he didn't know the difference between the body structure of a man and that of a man, but he could tell at a glance if they were a man or a man.
"Yeah." Mu Ke said, and clenched his hand tightly. He turned his head and saw his bashful looking lowered head, and felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.
"Will the clan agree to your marriage?" He had never heard that Gemini and Gemini could get married? And two pairs of pairs, what do we do...
His mind was completely blank, when he thought about how he was actually thinking about that matter, Shen Jingli couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart.
"Why not?"
"You are Gemini, and he is Gemini as well. How are you two going to get married?" Such an obvious matter, was there even a need for him to say it out loud?
Mu Ke was even more confused, he looked at Shen Jingli in confusion and asked, "Sister-in-law, why can't Sis and Sis get married?"
Although his mother would definitely be unhappy, but there wasn't any rule stating that Gemini couldn't marry Gemini right?
Shen Jingli stood there in a daze. Duo'er and Duo'er could actually get married? He turned around and looked at Nanny Jin.
"Gemini and Gemini can get married, but because it's difficult for Gemini to have children, it's possible that Gemini won't have children for the rest of their lives. Most people wouldn't agree to a Gemini in their family."
Shen Jingli was immediately petrified. Gemini could marry Gemini and even get pregnant, this was truly a mystical world.
"Sister-in-law, are you free tomorrow?" Let's go to Third Grandpa's place to take a look at Sixteenth Sister-in-Law. "
"Alright."
