The eunuch looked at Ji Xingzhi with some sympathy. Seeing Ji Xingzhi's disheveled hair, he said, "Your Majesty, go wash up first. Dinner will be served soon."

Ji Xingzhi nodded, ignoring the two who were still showing their affection as if no one was around, and went back to her room to wash up.

As soon as Ji Xingzhi entered the room, Xiao Qingyan followed in.

Ji Xingzhi was standing in front of the dressing table, tying her hair into a bun. Ji Xingzhi had lived here for nearly eight years and still didn't understand the ancient hairstyles, so she could only tie her hair into a bun.

Seeing this, Xiao Qingyan came over and pressed Ji Xingzhi onto the stool. She took off the bun that Ji Xingzhi had just done, and her fingers nimbly shuttled through her hair. Finally... she actually made a girlish bun for Ji Xingzhi, and inserted a light pink pearl flower from her own head into the bun. She looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction and smiled, "Xiaozhi is really beautiful. She will definitely be a beauty when she grows up."

Ji Xingzhi looked at the man in the mirror, who was wearing a light blue brocade robe but had his hair in a girl's bun. The corner of his mouth twitched fiercely, and he had to remind him: "Mother, I am a man, the king of a country."

Hearing this, Xiao Qingyan was slightly stunned. She looked at Ji Xingzhi's face with some regret, and finally said apologetically: "Uh... Xiaozhi is too pretty. Mother always thought Xiaozhi was a girl and unconsciously treated Xiaozhi as her own daughter. Xiaozhi, please don't be angry with Mother."

"Don't be angry." After all, being good-looking is also a sin~

In recent days, Ji Xingzhi and others have been staying in Liangcheng. They bought a small courtyard to live in. Xiao Qingyan would drag Ji Xingzhi to the market whenever she had time. She would buy her jewelry and jade, and clothes and skirts. She treated Ji Xingzhi as a girl. Every time she came back from the street, Ji Xingzhi's hair was always covered with flowery hairpins and step-shakes. Ji Xingzhi felt helpless about this.

One day, Ji Xingzhi was dragged out shopping by Xiao Qingyan again, and Liu Yang accompanied them.

Xiao Qingyan stopped in front of a cosmetics shop.

The owner of the cosmetics shop was a woman in her forties, with a rosy complexion and a slightly plump figure, looking very blessed.

As soon as the woman saw the customer coming, she immediately put on a smile and greeted, "Madam, do you like anything? The cosmetics here are made by me myself. They are gorgeous but not vulgar, fragrant but not greasy. You can't find another one like them in all of Liangcheng."

After hearing this, Xiao Qingyan just smiled faintly, and used her little finger to pick up a little bit of it and rubbed it on Ji Xingzhi's little face. Ji Xingzhi's fair and tender left cheek immediately turned pink.

Xiao Qingyan nodded with satisfaction and bought several boxes at once.

Ji Xingzhi wiped the rouge off her face with a handkerchief and said helplessly, "Mom, I'm a boy. I don't need these things you bought for me..."

Xiao Qingyan gave Ji Xingzhi a cold look and said, "Who said I bought these for you? I bought them for my future daughter-in-law. Remember to give these to Ruhua when you go back."

When Ji Xingzhi heard this, the corner of her mouth twitched. It seemed like she had been being sentimental these past few days?

"Mom, am I your and dad's biological child? You treat me worse than an outsider..." These past few days, she went shopping and bought only things for girls. So, it seems her mother didn't buy her anything...

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qingyan couldn't help but glare at Ji Xingzhi: "Nonsense, Ruhua is your future wife, how can she be considered an outsider?"

Ji Xingzhi's face darkened. Could you please not mention this? She would only marry the emperor's uncle in her life. Oh... No, only marry the emperor's uncle.
