Qin Songmo leaned back in the armchair, tapping his fingers on the armrests.
After hearing his little daughter's thoughts, he paused tapping the armrest.
Modern? Where?
There is this town in Da Chu. Is it named after 'modern'?
If we can really find this town, or even this small mountain village, we will know where the little daughter comes from.
Thinking of this, Qin Songmo's eyebrows did not reveal any relief.
On the contrary, he thought that once his fair and soft little daughter, whom he had raised for several months, returned home, he would never see her again, and he could not bear to see her in such a weird and eccentric manner.
His throat couldn't stop tightening, and he even had difficulty breathing.
Li Shengyi was still thinking that he was the butterfly flapping its wings to change the plot.
Seeing Qin Songmo's face turn ugly while he was holding her in his arms, she slightly widened her eyes and said, "I don't mean to sympathize with Sister Liu. Sister Liu allowed Second Miss Yun to bully me. She is bad."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince cares about the world. Hello, Your Highness."
"Daddy, don't be angry."
He reached out and patted Qin Songmo's chest. Li Shengyi was really frightened by his dark face and didn't dare to move while sitting in his arms.
Feeling the beating in his chest, Qin Songmo gradually regained his breath and his complexion became much better.
His slender fingers grasped his little daughter's hand, and he tilted his head to meet her eyes. "Chengyi, if your biological parents came looking for you, would you go back with them?"
Qin Songmo has long been accustomed to speaking frankly in front of his little daughter, simply because she is too precocious.
It was the first time he spoke without thinking, and after saying this, even he was stunned for a moment.
Shen Wangchen was right, Li Shengyi would indeed become his most fatal weakness.
But in just a few months, he had become so 'attached' to her. Was it because he lacked love?
Qin Songmo raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose. He was quite troubled by his previous behavior.
Just when he was about to explain that his little daughter didn't have to say it if she didn't want to.
A righteous voice rang in his ears, "Of course not!"
"Daddy, you are so good to me. You provide me with food, clothes, and toys. Shengyi is not an ungrateful person. Shengyi will always be by your side."
"Daddy, you don't know that because Shengyi is a girl and I have a brother who is about to get married, my parents didn't want me and sold me to a wealthy family to be their concubine."
"But I'm only a child. I don't want to be a concubine. I want to be Daddy's daughter and be filial to Daddy when I grow up!"
When Li Shengyi said this, the expression on his face made Qin Songmo and Qingfeng feel distressed.
But the two of them were heartbroken for more than one thing.
Qingfeng felt sorry for the young master, who was sold by his parents at a very young age. Perhaps that was why the young master was so smart and sensible.
And Qin Songmo...
"I won't leave the Prime Minister's Mansion! I finally managed to change my father's attitude and thoughts. I still have a long way to go!"
What the hell are parents? I didn't even know I had one. They passed away a long time ago. What's the point of leaving me alone to take care of such a huge family business?
[Besides, I can't go back. I might as well stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion and enjoy the good life. I can also bully Meng Jiuan. Life is so happy. I would be stupid to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion.]
Qin Songmo is thoughtful and meticulous.
After hearing these words, I began to think.
His little daughter was a little puzzled. Since her parents had passed away and left her such a huge fortune, why was she so thin and pale when he found her? Her clothes were tattered.
And what did she mean by "there's no going back"? Was the family property left to her by her parents taken over by relatives and friends?
Thinking about his little daughter, whom he held in his arms and loved so much, he realized that she had suffered such a great injustice in his family.
Qin Songmo became more and more determined to find the town where his youngest daughter had lived since childhood, take her with him, and take back everything that belonged to her!
Qin Songmo's mind was clattering as he felt his sleeve being pulled. He lowered his head and asked, "What?"
Li Shengyi looked at him with his almond-shaped eyes, "Daddy, will you always take me in?"
"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of you until the end of your life."
Qin Songmo raised his lip corners and nodded, "Of course."
The Prime Minister of the Great Chu would not make a decision lightly, but once he made a decision, he would carry it through to the end.
Li Shengyi listened to his affirmative tone and smiled broadly.
"Thank you, Daddy. Then, Daddy, can I go play with Tangyuan?"
Qin Songmo hasn't sat down to play chess with his little daughter today.
Seeing that his little daughter was obsessed with the parrot the prince had sent her, his brows furrowed anxiously, and then he heard him say, "Have you finished your homework today?"
Li Shengyi nodded, "It's all done. Lu Xing is right. Only when I finish my homework will Daddy stop worrying about me every day."
"I'm trying to train Tangyuan to speak. Daddy has some official business to attend to, so I won't bother him."
Qin Songmo, who was used to urging his lazy daughter to do her homework, was suddenly told one day that he no longer had to worry about her:...
Pursing his lips, he put down the little daughter in his arms and said, "Okay, don't get tired. If you are tired, take a rest first."
Li Shengyi nodded rapidly, and as soon as his toes touched the ground, the emerald green figure quickly ran towards the couch.
"Tangyuan, I'm back!!!"
Qin Songmo: ...Every day when he returned home from court, his little daughter had never greeted him so warmly!
Qingfeng was standing behind the armchair.
Feeling the resentful aura emanating from his master's body, his eyes could not help but fall on the little master who was sitting on the couch playing with birds.
What happened between the father and daughter? Why did the master exude such an aura?
Before Qingfeng could figure out the reason, he heard the master's voice with suppressed resentment.
"Qingfeng, when will the Daliang envoy come ashore?"
Thanks to the several cities that Meng Jiuan took back from the Turks a few years ago, Da Chu became a powerful country again.
In order to gain the protection of Da Chu, Daliang would travel by water every year to pay tribute to Da Chu.
Seeing that it was time to pay tribute again, Qin Songmo was waiting for the other party to fall into his trap.
Qingfeng bent down upon hearing this and was about to answer when he saw his master in front of him raise his hand to stop him.
Just as he turned his head to look at his master in confusion, he saw that his master was staring at the young master.
"Qingfeng, who's prettier, me or that parrot?"
Qingfeng, "...Of course it's you, Master, who is good-looking. Master, you are not only good-looking, but also resourceful!"
Qin Songmo nodded in satisfaction and said to himself, "Children always get tired of the old and love the new. I don't think there's anything good about that bird."
Qingfeng, "Master, are you jealous of a parrot?!"
After saying this, Qingfeng realized that he had spoken his true feelings and immediately covered his mouth. He wanted to run but couldn't, so he could only bite the bullet and face the glare of his master.
