Chapter 381 It’s Never You Who Should Be Damn
Only Yuan Xiaonian and Li Suining were left in the yard.
Li Suining was no longer afraid of him. He looked up and asked curiously, "What do you want to know?"
"Hehe..." Yuan Xiaonian sneered and found this little girl more interesting.
He got straight to the point, "What did you say after you went in?"
"She didn't say anything. The young lady is mute," Li Suining said with a look of regret. "She could only shake her head or nod. But we made an appointment to go again tomorrow."
Yuan Xiaonian lowered his eyes to look at her, "Why did you approach her on purpose?"
Little Dumpling blushed a little when her thoughts were spoken out directly.
She lowered her head and replied in a low voice, "I want to save Daddy."
Yuan Xiaonian didn't say anything. He realized a problem. For so long, he had not figured out the identity of this child and had allowed her to get close to his mother.
He couldn't help but feel a little scared. Unconsciously, he had developed an inexplicable trust in this little girl. Was it because she was just a child?
But he knew best that children were also very dangerous beings in this harem.
"Who are you?" For the first time, Yuan Xiaonian asked Li Suining's identity.
"My name is Li Suining," the little girl said without hiding anything, "I'm Bai Yunfeng's daughter. To be more precise, I'm his adopted daughter."
Yuan Xiaonian was a little surprised, "You are the daughter of General Bai"
The little girl nodded her head and looked over curiously, "Second Prince also knows my father."
Yuan Xiaonian's expression was unusually solemn. "Which citizen of the Great Jin wouldn't know this name?"
"But..." Little Dumpling sniffed, trying to control his emotions, "But now some people say my father is planning a rebellion, and he and his brothers have been imprisoned in the Censorate."
"I approached that sister because I wanted to save my father and brothers." Her baby voice began to choke.
Yuan Xiaonian fell silent again, his eyes fixed on the little girl.
Of course, he knew about Bai Yunfeng's affairs, but he didn't expect that there was such a little guy working hard for this matter.
He frowned, "The Emperor wants to get rid of Baiyunfeng."
"No, no." The little dumpling immediately waved his hands anxiously, "Uncle Emperor was just deceived. My father would never rebel."
Yuan Xiaonian sneered, "So you think it was those two people who made the emperor believe that Baiyunfeng was planning a rebellion?"
Li Suining nodded vigorously.
Yuan Xiaonian crossed his arms and looked at her serious expression, a sly look flashed in his eyes, "So do you think they are good people or bad people?"
Li Suining blinked her big eyes and didn't know how to answer for a moment. She had never thought about this question.
"If they are good people, why would they want to kill the Bai family?" Yuan Xiaonian answered for her, "If they are bad people, why do you think they will help you?"
The expression on the little dumpling's face changed very quickly, from full of fighting spirit to a little disappointed in just a moment.
But soon, she became determined again, "No matter whether they are good people or not, no matter whether they will help me or not, I will try. I want to save my father and brothers."
"He's really just a child, so naive." Yuan Xiaonian seemed to have lost interest and waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, go away."
The little girl took the initiative and said, "I'll come again tomorrow. I have an appointment with that young lady."
Yuan Xiaonian, who had already turned around, paused and said lazily, "Whatever you want!"
"Goodbye, Second Prince!" Little Dumpling's voice was always so sweet. "Say goodbye to Concubine Jing for me!"
Yuan Xiaonian heard the footsteps and when he looked back, he only saw a piece of the girl's clothes.
Leping
She is nothing like Leping.
Even if Le Ping were alive, he wouldn't be as... full of vitality as her.
Yuan Xiaonian pushed the door open and entered the room, and saw Concubine Jing got up. He was tall and had long legs, and he reached the bed in a few steps.
"Mother, why are you up?"
"I'm always lying down and feeling uncomfortable." Concubine Jing asked with a smile, "Le Ping is gone."
Yuan Xiaonian hesitated for a moment, then gently corrected, "Mother, I told you, that's not Leping."
In fact, in the past year or so, Concubine Jing's illness has stabilized. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of Li Suining, the life of mother and son would have been relatively peaceful.
But that day, after Li Suining appeared, Concubine Jing's mind became a little confused again.
Yuan Xiaonian tried to make her more sober, but that only seemed to make her condition worse, so he had no choice but to let Li Suining impersonate Le Ping.
But Li Suining is not Leping after all, and will never be Leping.
He still hoped that Concubine Jing could understand.
"Silly child, mother knows that you don't want to acknowledge this sister." Concubine Jing sat on the bed, with an expression of uncontrollable sadness. "This matter...it is mother who deserves to die. What did the child do wrong?"
"Mother!" Yuan Xiaonian tightly grasped Jing Fei's shoulders. "Look at me, you are the one who should die!"
Although Concubine Jing was facing Yuan Xiaonian, her eyes were obviously empty and looked... lifeless.
Yuan Xiaonian immediately said, "Mother, don't worry, my son likes Leping very much."
Sure enough, after hearing this, Concubine Jing's face finally showed some expression. She smiled at Yuan Xiaonian and nodded, "Okay, good boy, good boy."
Yuan Xiaonian also forced a stiff smile.
——
Outside the cold palace, when Li Suining went out, Yuan Baoyu was the first to run over.
"Li Suining, are you okay?" I don't know when it started, he stopped calling her sister and always called her Li Suining.
The little girl shook her head and pinched Yuan Baoyu's chubby cheeks with her hands, "Sister, I'm fine!"
Shaoyao and Chunxiang also came over.
Little Dumpling secretly nodded to Shaoyao.
"Let's go back to Yonghua Palace. My mother has prepared a lot of delicious food." Yuan Baoyu grabbed Li Suining's hand and walked towards Yonghua Palace.
Shaoyao and Chunxiang followed behind.
Chunxiang was so adorable by the two little ones holding hands in front of her, "Ever since he met Princess Suining, our prince has become more talkative. Every day he's talking about Li Suining falling down and getting a mouthful of snow, or Li Suining's pigtails are all askew... Every sentence he talks about is about Princess Suining."
Shaoyao smiled and nodded, "In fact, it's not just His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, but also our Crown Prince."
"In the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would tinker with the wood after class and wouldn't say more than three words to us every day. But now, as soon as we meet, he asks, 'Where's Sister Sui Ning?'"
The two girls couldn't help laughing.
Shaoyao sighed imperceptibly, "The princes are all too lonely."
"Yes." Chunxiang nodded in agreement. "Only the Third and Fourth Princes are of similar age and live close to each other. The Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince are too far apart in age to play together."
The two maids talked all the way as they entered Yonghua Palace.
As expected, Concubine Yi prepared a lot of delicious food, and the two little guys immediately started eating happily.
