Before the little boy could finish speaking, Linzhi heard the sound and looked over. The moment she saw the little boy, she screamed and ran away without even hearing what he said.
"ah?!"
"A ghost! Ah! Help!"
...
The little dumpling, who was fierce just a moment ago, now stared blankly at Linzhi, who had run away screaming and disappeared, blinking her eyes with a completely bewildered expression.
Chen Zhixian turned around and saw the little baby standing on the window. Her eyelids twitched violently. She quickly went over and picked her up, her voice trembling with lingering fear, "How could Niannian stand on the window! What if she fell!"
"Niannian won't fall!" The little dumpling pouted and retorted proudly.
Then, she saw the flowers that Linzhi had trampled on the ground, and her watery eyes immediately widened in anger, "You bad person! All the flowers have been trampled..."
Chen Zhixian followed the little boy's gaze and saw the trampled flowers. She was slightly taken aback. Actually, she was already used to it. Every time someone came, they would trample on the flowers. At first, she didn't dare to get angry, but later... she became numb to it.
She looked up at the still bright sun, bounced the chubby little baby in her arms, and said with a smile, "At this hour, there shouldn't be anyone in the garden outside. Auntie will take Niannian to pick some flowers and replant them, okay?"
"Okay!" the little boy replied in his childish voice.
Although she didn't understand why her pretty auntie asked if there were people outside, she was happy that she could pick flowers and grow them into a beautiful garden.
"Auntie, let's bring Godfather along!" The little boy happily pulled Chen Zhixian outside, saying cheerfully.
Godfather?
Chen Zhixian paused for a moment, then vaguely guessed what was going on, and tentatively asked, "Is the 'godfather' that Niannian mentioned the Emperor?"
The little boy nodded, "Yes!"
Chen Zhixian said with a smile, "Godfather has important matters to attend to, so we can't disturb him. How about Auntie helps Niannian pick flowers?"
The little boy was about to say that his godfather wasn't busy at all; he was clearly just taking a walk outside.
However, once the words were on the tip of her tongue, the vengeful little girl remembered that her silly godfather had just been standing there blankly outside, not even bothering to come in and help her aunt bully him back. Suddenly, she didn't want to play with her godfather anymore!
Mother was right after all; men are all big pigs with no ears!
Every time my mother cried out in pain, my father pretended not to hear. Now that my aunt is being bullied, my godfather is also pretending not to hear.
Hmph, you big bad guy!
Of course, the little girl had no idea that her "disliked" godfather had come to this place, which was like a cold palace, for some ungrateful brat.
At this moment, Emperor Chongjin stood outside the rear courtyard with a complicated expression.
Actually, the little boy really wronged him. At first, he really didn't understand what was going on. He just thought it was a quarrel between two palace maids.
But slowly, he realized something was wrong. It was the maid's last words, "Could that little jinx possibly come back to life?" that made him understand who the woman being bullied in the courtyard was.
So, just as Emperor Chongjin realized what was happening, he saw the little boy pulling Chen Zhixian and running outside.
The gentle voice, "At this hour, there should be no one in the garden outside," kept echoing in his ears.
As if by some strange twist of fate, Emperor Chongjin raised his hand to stop the palace servants from calling out to the two of them. He gently waved his hand, dismissing the servants, and quietly followed them.
