Whether by fate or some other means, Emperor Kangxi's entourage and Yinzhen's entourage, who had returned from Suzhou, arrived in the capital on the same day.

Kangxi's entourage arrived first and, after being greeted by the Crown Prince and officials, had not yet returned to the palace when they met Yinzhen and the others, who had rushed back wearily.

For a moment, the scene was unusually lively.

After entering the palace, the children were taken to the Cining Palace, while the high-ranking officials and those who had returned from Suzhou accompanied Emperor Kangxi to the Qianqing Palace.

As soon as Wenxi entered, she saw Guarjia sitting to one side, holding Hongxi, looking at her with fervent eyes.

However, she still very politely bowed to Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang first, and then brought up the gifts she had prepared for Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang before throwing herself into Guarjia's arms and acting coquettishly.

Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang was very satisfied with Wenxi's sudden growth.

It was quite surprising that a trip of just a few months had made such a sensible little princess, who was only four years old.

"Mom, my little brother is growing so fast!"

Wenxi noticed that Hongxi had grown taller and stronger, and her eyes were full of smiles. "Hongxi, do you still remember your sister?"

Taking advantage of Wenxi's lowered head, Hongxi grabbed her neck and kissed her on the cheek, saying, "Sister."

Wenxi opened her mouth in surprise, looked at Hongxi and then at Guarjia.

Guarjia found her daughter's reaction amusing.

"Your younger brother can now say simple words and can walk slowly on the ground."

After saying that, he put Hongxi on the ground. After adjusting his state, Hongxi slowly walked away on his own under everyone's gaze.

He cunningly walked towards Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, his plan being to fawn over her so he could get some of the old lady's milk cake.

Just as he was getting closer and closer to Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's thigh, almost within a step, a confident voice suddenly rang out.

"Oh, Hongxi can walk now."
