Chapter 145 The Second Brother Will Return Home

Fu Qian has returned.

The Princess and Qin Shu looked at the sky outside at the same time and were surprised to find that it was almost evening and a little dark.

"Fu Qian is back for dinner, and you, why are you here so late?"

Qin Shu then realized that there was a little kid following Fu Qian - it turned out that Pei Xuanyi had also followed.

She smiled and nodded at Fu Qian and the little grandson.

Pei Xuanyi scratched his head in embarrassment.

"I happened to have time today, so I wanted to come and see the Imperial Aunt and Jianning."

Fu Jianning was the name the Princess and Fu Qian gave the child.

The child was a few years younger than Pei Xuanyi. If Pei Xuanyi called him uncle, it would be a bit funny, so they just called him by his name.

Fu Qian smiled happily when he saw this.

"Xuanyi heard that you invited Xixi and the head of the Qin family to play, so he said he would come over to play together and make it more lively."

The princess heard Fu Qian's meaningful words and instantly understood what he was talking about.

Pei Xuanyi was caught off guard by Fu Qian's words and his face suddenly became hot.

This Lord Fu, how could he expose him right away!

Fu Qian did not show any guilt for betraying Pei Xuanyi on his face, but the princess even showed a teasing look on her face.

She covered her mouth and smiled.

"Why didn't I know that Xuanyi missed me, the imperial aunt, so much? I just don't know whether Xuanyi wants to come to the princess's house or wants to see Xixi."

Little Xixi didn't realize what they were talking about, and thought Pei Xuanyi was missing her, so she clapped her hands happily.

Although Pei Xuanyi's face was slightly red, he answered calmly, which made him look very serious.

"Xuanyi is of course here to see the imperial aunt. My mother said that the imperial aunt had just given birth and was very weak. She asked me to visit her more often, do more things for the imperial aunt, and take care of Jianning." The

princess looked doubtful, but she still cooperated with an "oh".

There was some truth in Pei Xuanyi's words, but the princess felt relieved after hearing them.

Qin Shu also laughed at Pei Xuanyi, but she had not forgotten what Fu Qian said when he entered the room, so she asked hurriedly.

"Master Fu, did you just say that the second son would be back with the mighty general?"

Fu Qian nodded, and Pei Xuanyi added.

"Yes, the second son of Qin has only been in the army for half a year, and he has already made a lot of contributions. It just so happens that they won a victory this year and signed a peace treaty with the enemy. No one will commit crimes again in the short term. The emperor specially allowed the mighty general to return to Beijing for the New Year, and the second son of Qin also came back."

Seeing Qin Shu's expression become excited, Fu Qian smiled again.

"The mighty general has always admired the second son of Qin. When he was in the army, he often took him to teach him, and praised him in front of all the dignitaries. The emperor also knows that the second son of Qin has made contributions in the army. I think they will be rewarded when they return to the capital."

Qin Shu heard this and hurriedly thanked the two for telling her about this.

"The second son is back, and we can finally be together this New Year!"

The fourth and fifth sons were about to come back, and now the second son has also decided to return to Beijing. This is the first time that all the Qin family members have gathered together to celebrate the New Year. Qin Shu is so excited.

In fact, Qin Shu doesn't really care whether the second son has military merits in the barracks and whether he can get rewards when he comes back.

She is worried about whether the second son is healthy and whether he is happy in the army.

"I have to thank His Royal Highness the Little Grandson for letting the second son go to your uncle's service, otherwise he would not be so successful."

Qin Shu wanted to thank the Little Grandson for finding connections for the second son and avoiding the tragic death of the second son, but she couldn't say it directly.

But Pei Xuanyi understood.

"I am just a middleman in this matter. It is he who really helped the second son of Qin. If he is not capable, he would not be favored by General Weiyuan."

Little Xixi also nodded seriously.

[The second brother's military talent is naturally needless to say. As long as he can meet a wise leader, he can give full play to his ability. However, the role of the little grandson is also very huge, otherwise where would we have such a general as a network! ]

Listening to the baby voice of little Xixi's analysis, Pei Xuanyi smiled, squatted down, and wanted to pick up Qin Xixi.

I don't know if it was Pei Xuanyi's illusion, Pei Xuanyi always felt that it seemed to be more difficult to stand up this time than before.

He couldn't help but smile and touch Xixi's little nose.

"Has little Xixi eaten a lot of meat recently? She seems to have gained some weight."

Qin Xixi's eyes widened in shock when she heard this.

[How can the little grandson of the emperor say this about a girl, wuwuwu!]

Pei Xuanyi thought it was funny, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud to make Xixi even angrier.

He patted Xixi's head gently.

"Little Xixi is not fat, she's just a little heavier, which means Xixi has grown taller."

In fact, Qin Xixi's face did have a lot more meat, but Pei Xuanyi still thought Xixi was very cute, and she became even cuter after gaining some meat.

Qin Xixi felt much better when she heard the little grandson of the emperor explain this way.

[Okay, then I'll reluctantly accept this reason.]

However, why is she now much taller than before in the hands of the little grandson of the emperor?

[No way, the little grandson of the emperor is growing up too fast, how come he has grown so tall all of a sudden!]

The princess smiled happily when she saw Pei Xuanyi holding little Xixi in his arms with such proficiency.

"Xuanyi, how come you become a little adult when facing little Xixi?"

Although Pei Xuanyi always looks mature, he is a gentle brother to Xixi, but he is coercive and cold to others.

Pei Xuanyi answered flawlessly upon hearing this, and was determined not to let him, the imperial aunt, laugh at her.

"Xixi is my sister, I need to take care of her."

The princess slyly winked at Pei Xuanyi, and Pei Xuanyi held his forehead helplessly.

At this time, the servant came up and told the princess that the meal was ready in the kitchen.

Qin Shu thought that the third brother and Qin Qiting were still waiting for dinner in the mansion, so she wanted to take Xixi away first.

"It's getting late, I should take Xixi back home."

The eldest princess was unhappy and wanted Qin Shu to stay. Pei Xuanyi's expression also relaxed a little.

"Why go back home? I have already asked the kitchen to prepare your meal. You must finish your meal before leaving."

Qin Shu hesitated.

At this time, the servant of the Qin Mansion suddenly ran into the front hall in a hurry, panting and reporting to Qin Shu.

"Oh no, master, the third young master was brought to the mansion by the teacher!"
