Nanny Cui couldn't help laughing. Not to mention the princess, even she herself hadn't laughed like that in a long time.
Since the two children came, the mountain has become more lively and joyful.
"Okay, His Highness is not willing to let you wash the dishes. Look, you are not even as tall as the stove. If you wash the dishes, I'm afraid he will have to worry about you while you accompany him."
"Mammy, you are wrong. He doesn't feel sorry for me at all. He was ruthless when he beat me."
Wen Heng also laughed, "I thought you didn't like it, so I deliberately let you."
“I… cough cough…”
【He said so, what can I say? 】
Wen Heng smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Madam."
"What's the big deal? This is what I should do. I'm glad you can stay." Nanny Cui's eyes were full of sincerity.
Capital city, general’s mansion.
General Wei had already prepared to leave the capital with Old Lady Xia and the others. When they were saying goodbye, Wei Jianqing cried his eyes out, like a child without parents.
"You little brat, you're nothing like my son. A real man would shed blood but not tears." Wei Rong said in a deep voice, but his eyes were red.
After all, they have been father and son for more than ten years. Although they will still be father and son in the future, they cannot see each other every day like they do now.
"Dad, I didn't cry even though I was bleeding!" Wei Jianqing said, "Aunt, my dad will be in your care from now on. He has a lot of injuries. Whenever it's cloudy or rainy, his knees and wrists hurt. But he won't say anything. He listens to you. You have to keep an eye on him."
At this time, Wei Jianqing was obviously a young man under 20 years old who was full of vigor and vitality, but he was nagging like an old woman.
Old Mrs. Xia nodded and said, "Good child, don't worry."
"Still calling me aunt?" Wei Rong snorted coldly, somewhat dissatisfied.
Wei Jianqing smiled and scratched his head, "Hey, Mom, from now on I will be your child again."
"Yeah!" Old Mrs. Xia answered straightforwardly without any hesitation. This child is filial and she likes him.
"mother!"
“Hey!”
"mother!"
“Hey!”
Wei Jianqing called out three times in a row, louder than the last, expressing his excitement and reluctance.
Old Mrs. Xia also answered three times, each one more gentle than the last.
"Good boy, come home when you are not busy. You have so many brothers and sisters, just don't think they will cause trouble for you."
"Hey, mother, look at what you said. My brothers and sisters are all good people. How could they get into trouble? Even if something really happened, we are all brothers in the family, so there is no reason to ignore it. Don't worry, I will definitely go back. Who told me to eat the delicious food that Sister Jinxiu left behind."
"Greedy boy." Wei Rong said.
Old Mrs. Xia took her children back a few steps and let the father and son have a good talk.
In fact, I have already said everything I need to say, but I just can't bear to say it.
"Jianqing, remember what your father told you. Do your part well and don't worry about anything else. OK?" Wei Rong said seriously.
Wei Jianqing looked solemn, and did not dare to be careless, "Yes, Dad, don't worry, I will never retreat on the battlefield, and I will not interfere in the affairs of the court."
"Good boy, you have grown up, and daddy is worthy of your parents."
Just when Wei Rong was about to turn around and leave, Emperor Shunde arrived.
In the mood of parting, everyone seemed to have forgotten one thing, but Xia Jinxiu did not forget.
She lowered her head deliberately, not wanting Emperor Shunde to notice her presence.
Emperor Shunde did focus his attention on Wei Rong at first, and said some so-called intimate words to him, for which Wei Rong was very grateful.
After all, being able to be seen off personally by the emperor is a great honor.
Whether it was true or not, Wei Rong was grateful.
Emperor Shunde gained fame, and Wei Jianqing's life in the army would be much easier because of this farewell.
"It's getting late, Lord Wei, we'll see you later."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wei Rong took a deep breath and looked back at the capital city. However, no matter how beautiful the scenery was, it was not as beautiful as the woman with gray hair beside him.
"Why...I don't see that child Zhi...Oh, by the way, she hasn't come back yet." Emperor Shunde deliberately mentioned this for some reason.
Wei Rong's heart trembled, but he immediately let it go. He had already handed over his military power, and the emperor should not make things difficult for a child.
After everyone knelt down, they stood up and left.
Although Xia Jinxiu kept her head down, Emperor Shunde still caught a glimpse of her among the crowd.
His first reaction was that it seemed familiar, but since everyone had already left, he didn't say anything. He glanced at Xia Jinjun and the others who stayed behind, then set off to return to the palace.
On the way, Emperor Shunde thought of the stunning woman, "Su Dequan, who was that woman today?"
Woman, still stunning?
Su Dequan was able to gain power beside Emperor Shunde, so he was no fool. He understood immediately and recalled, "You are talking about Miss Xia, right?"
"Xia Jinxiu?"
"Yes, it's her." Su Dequan looked at Emperor Shunde and secretly sweated. This Miss Xia is so unlucky.
When she entered the palace to make snacks before, she happened to get a rash, which ruined her stunning appearance. If she entered the palace now, she would probably never come back.
"Xia Jinxiu?" Emperor Shunde's eyes suddenly turned cold, and then he laughed, "What a Xia Jinxiu."
"Your Majesty, I am stupid. Is this Miss Xia's blessing?"
Emperor Shunde sneered, "I have seen countless women who tried their best to get close to me and gain my favor, but I have never seen a woman who tried her best to avoid my favor."
Su Dequan's hair stood up all over his body, he knew that Emperor Shunde was angry.
Although he also received benefits from Xia Jinxiu, that was nothing compared to the emperor's rage. At this time, he did not dare to say a word for Xia Jinxiu.
"Your Majesty, then...then should I ask someone to call her back?"
"Call me back?" Emperor Shunde sneered, "Su Dequan, how long have you been following me?"
Su Dequan was unsure, and his voice trembled, "My Lord, it has been thirty-five years, and I have been following you since I was ten years old."
"It's been thirty-five years, and you still don't know what I think? You are really useless."
Su Dequan knelt down immediately in fear and said, "Master, I am stupid and I deserve to die."
"Get up." Emperor Shunde was not angry. If he was not seen through, he would not be angry at all. The emperor's heart is as deep as the sea. He would be angry if he was really seen through.
"She is just a peasant girl, not worth my trouble. However, the girls of the Xia family are more interesting than the other."
Su Dequan put on a smile and was secretly happy that he had saved his head.
On the other side, Xia Jinxiu finally felt relieved after leaving the city gate. She had finally escaped the disaster. Her fate had also changed according to the little girl's words.
But Xia Jinjun felt that it was not that simple. He secretly glanced at the way Emperor Shunde looked at his sister, which made him feel a chill down his spine.
