Lingling cried so hard that her eyes were filled with tears, which was so pitiful and heartbreaking.
But Qi Yuning didn't dare to bring Lu Ze into the courtyard when Qi Yu'an was in the palace, so he had to carry Lingling to the princess's palace.
When Lu Ze got the letter, he went to the side door and saw Lingling wrapped in a cloak with tears in her eyes in Qi Yuning's arms. He took Lingling from Qi Yuning.
Lingling hugged Lu Ze's neck and said, "Daddy!"
Lu Ze stretched out his fingers to wipe Lingling's tears, "Be good."
Qi Yuning said helplessly: "Lingling is always like this. If she doesn't see you for a few days, she will make a fuss for you at night. Let Lingling sleep in the princess's mansion for the next two days. After two days, she won't miss you anymore."
Lingling leaned on Lu Ze's shoulder and said, "Lingling will always miss Daddy."
Lu Ze whispered to Qi Yuning, "After my birthday, I will go to His Majesty to ask for marriage."
After all, the King of Shu is Lu Ze's uncle, so Lu Ze cannot ask for permission to marry at this critical juncture.
His birthday was at the end of February, so it would be legitimate to ask for an imperial decree to grant his marriage on his birthday.
Now that we have a legitimate relationship, there is no need for our family of three to be separated.
Qi Yuning asked: "Has the appointment of the Dali Temple Minister come down?"
Lu Ze said, "Not yet. The collusion between the King of Shu and Beimo also involves Concubine Xian's family and some court officials. He Siqing can't leave for a while, and the Dali Temple will be very busy during this period."
Qi Yuning asked: "Lingling is asking you to accompany her, won't that bother you?"
"No." Lu Ze said, "I'm not so busy that I can't take a break."
When Lingling returned to Lu Ze's room, she saw the small bed in the room and said happily, "Why is the color of Lingling's bed different? Lingling's bed should be darker in color."
Lu Ze asked: "Is this your old crib?"
Lingling nodded and said, "Yes, this is Lingling's little bed."
Qi Yuning saw the crib and whispered to Lu Ze, "Lingling hasn't even been born yet, how come a crib was arranged so early?"
Lu Ze coughed lightly and said, "It's not for Lingling."
Lingling said: "This is Lingling's little bed!"
Qi Yuning was puzzled and asked, "If it's not for Lingling, who else could it be for?"
Lu Ze said softly: "My mother prepared it for Lingling's brother and sister..."
Qi Yuning thought that Lingling would have to wait till some time before she would have brothers and sisters.
After Lu Ze told Lingling a story, Lingling fell asleep quickly. After Lingling fell asleep, Qi Yuning dipped her handkerchief in warm water and gently wiped the tears from the corners of Lingling's eyes, feeling very distressed.
Qi Yuning said: "I will carry Lingling back to the palace first."
Lu Ze looked at Qi Yuning in surprise, "I thought you would stay."
Qi Yuning said: "My brother is at home, how can I stay?"
Just when Qi Yuning picked up Lingling, he heard the heavy rain hitting the window frame. The sound of the rain forced Qi Yuning to put Lingling down.
Lu Ze looked at Qi Yuning and said, "It's raining."
Qi Yuning sighed, "Wait until the rain stops. This spring rain won't last long."
Lu Ze said, "It's cold outside, why don't you go to bed and rest for a while?"
Qi Yuning got on the couch and leaned into Lu Ze's arms and said, "Your Majesty and the Queen don't want Ah Ping to be the Princess of Qi."
Lu Ze said, "This is also reasonable. Your Majesty, whether for the sake of fame or for the sake of his subjects, or for the sake of the court, will definitely not let Brother Qi marry a woman of low status as his princess. If Ping had died before, she could have fulfilled Brother Qi's love, but if she were alive, it would be impossible for her to become the princess of Qi as a woman from a mountain village."
Qi Yuning said: "She is not a village girl, she is the biological daughter of His Majesty."
Lu Ze said, "A Ping is unwilling to admit her identity, probably because she has no evidence. You and I are just guessing based on Ling Ling's words. No one will believe her if you say she is the daughter of His Majesty without any evidence."
Qi Yuning said, "That's right. Even if Ping looks like you, it doesn't prove anything. The Crown Prince also looks like Uncle Qin. He can also say that the nephew resembles his uncle. But do we really have to watch His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascend the throne?"
"He will not ascend the throne." Lu Ze pointed at Xiao Lingling who was sleeping beside him.
Qi Yuning sighed and said, "I don't know what will happen. It would be great if Lingling could come back a little older. That way, we can know more useful things and take precautions."
Lu Ze laughed and said, "It's a miracle that she can come back. How can she go back to the past at any age she wants? I don't know what kind of opportunity Lingling got to come back?"
Qi Yuning looked at Lingling and said, "I really envy Lingling for being able to go back to the past. I also want to go back to the past, to when my parents were still alive, to tell them to be on guard against Wenban... I also want to see them more often."
Lu Ze rubbed Qi Yuning's head and said, "Everything is predetermined in heaven. I think your parents will be waiting for you in heaven. When you live to be a hundred years old and die peacefully, you will be reunited with them."
Qi Yuning asked: "What about you? Do you want to go back to the past?"
Lu Ze nodded and said, "Go back to the time when I was fourteen and you were eleven."
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze's profile. Lu Ze glanced sideways and met Qi Yuning's eyes. "If I go back to that time, I will definitely not find you annoying, and I will not tell you not to bother me again. If that were the case, you and I might have been married long ago."
There was nothing to do with Lu Yun at all.
The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and Qi Yuning was getting more and more sleepy. She said sleepily: "But if you and I grew up together, I would just treat you as my brother."
Lu Ze thought about it and it made sense. At that time, when Qi Yu'an went to the military camp, Qi Yuning especially liked to come to see him. She probably regarded him as a brother.
If they had really grown up together like they did when they were children during these seven years, they would probably have become brother and sister.
Seeing Qi Yuning was tired, Lu Ze said, "Go to sleep first. I'll call you when the rain stops."
Only then did Qi Yuning fall asleep peacefully.
When I woke up, it was already daybreak.
Lingling had already dressed up and was sitting on a small couch playing Huarong Dao.
Lichun stepped forward and said, "Princess, you are awake."
Qi Yuning asked: "When did the rain stop?"
"It stopped at midnight last night."
Lichun took the warm water handed over by the maid in Lu Ze's room, helped Qi Yuning wash up and said, "It's already noon now."
Qi Yuning was shocked and asked, "Why didn't you wake me up?"
Lichun said, "It was the prince who said that you were tired from traveling and asked you to sleep a little longer."
Qi Yuning sighed softly. If she had to blame anyone, it was because Lu Ze's bed was too soft.
When Qi Yuning was taking Lingling back to the palace through the side door, they happened to meet Qi Yu'an who was waiting at the side door.
"Brother, what a coincidence."
Qi Yu'an glared at Qi Yuning and said, "Yuning, do you know your identity? A princess who doesn't come home at night..."
"It is precisely because I am a princess that I dare to do this. If I were just a daughter of a small family, how would I dare to joke with my reputation? Isn't it because of my brother that I have the confidence? Even if I do something outrageous, I am still a princess."
Qi Yuning smiled at Qi Yu'an, "And Lingling really made a big fuss yesterday."
Qi Yu'an looked at Lingling.
Lingling snorted and said, "Lingling doesn't like uncle anymore. Uncle is bad!"
Qi Yu'an squatted down and touched Lingling's head and said, "Why don't you like your uncle anymore?"
Lingling said: "Uncle doesn't let Daddy and Mommy sleep with Lingling. Uncle is not good. Lingling will not like uncle anymore!"
Lingling pushed Qi Yu'an away, and seeing Ah Ping coming over, she ran over, hugged Ah Ping's thighs and complained, "Aunt, my uncle is bad, help Lingling teach him a lesson!"
Ah Ping was stunned: "Huh?"
Lingling said: "My cousin said that my uncle listens to my aunt the most!"
Qi Yu'an walked up and hugged Lingling. Lingling struggled and said, "I don't like my uncle. I don't want him to hug me!"
Qi Yu'an said, "Don't you want a pony? Uncle will take you to ride a horse. Do you still like uncle?"
"I like it!" Lingling smiled gently.
Qi Yu'an asked from the side: "Then Lingling can only choose between riding a horse and sleeping with Daddy. If she wants to ride a horse, she can't have Daddy."
"Lingling wants daddy!" Lingling said in a panic, "I want daddy."
Qi Yuning went forward to comfort Lingling and said, "Be good, daddy is here."
Qi Yuning said to Qi Yu'an, "Lingling wouldn't even choose between her father and mother, let alone between riding a horse and her father."
Qi Yu'an said: "It seems that Lu Ze is doing a good job as Lingling's father."
Lingling nodded and said, "Lingling's dad is so good, better than my cousin's dad. My cousin also said that Lingling's dad is better than his dad!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Yu'an ordered the manager, "Seal the side door with bricks!"
