Chapter 665 The Worst Follower

At this time, Xiang Xiaodong was in the guard post, pacing back and forth in annoyance.

He was extremely anxious.

For so many years, my younger brother has hardly ever stepped out of that small courtyard, but now, not only does he have to step out, but he also has to work with so many outsiders.

His legs simply cannot stand for long periods of time or they will get bruised. When he stands, he can easily fall if someone touches him.

What if someone bullies him? Even if no one bullies him, he might fall down if someone pats him. Would others be surprised? Would they look at him with strange eyes? Would he feel pain or sadness? As long as he thought about it, his heart would boil.

The guard called out twice, but he didn't hear anything. The guard had no choice but to walk up to him and said, "Sir, the young prince is outside. I want you to go out."

Xiang Xiaodong was stunned and asked anxiously: "Little Princess?"

The personal soldier said, "Yes."

Xiang Xiaodong hurriedly called a few personal soldiers and walked out quickly. Xinbao was waiting for him outside. When he saw him, he said mysteriously: "Come on, Lord Xiang, I will take you to see your brother."

Xiang Xiaodong responded in a deep voice, suppressed his anxiety, and followed behind.

The six ministries are located outside the palace, but the Ministry of Medicine does not have an office yet, so it is temporarily working in the courtyard north of the Ministry of Personnel.

But the craftsmen were working on large pieces that could not be laid out, so they borrowed a large courtyard from the Ministry of Industry, a short distance away from Qipan Street.

Tuanzi swung her arms and legs and walked quite fast, but her legs were short. She took three steps for everyone else to take one step, so Xiang Xiaodong felt that she was still quite slow.

They walked all the way to the yard and heard the sound of sawing wood from a distance. Xiang Xiaodong was quickening his pace to go in when Tuanzi had already trotted over, grabbed one of his hands, then crouched down and walked carefully to the back.

Xiang Xiaodong: “……???”

He asked, "Your Highness?"

"Shh!" Tuanzi was so disappointed that he whispered, "Are you stupid? Do you want to walk in and watch everyone salute you? Or do you want to know your brother's usual working status?"

Xiang Xiaodong was really speechless when asked this question.

Hao Huashi had heard it a long time ago and came out.

He had been in Longxiong Guard, so these people knew him. He gestured with a serious face, indicating that these people should hide at both ends of the alley and keep an eye on people. Then he personally took the master to the left side of the yard, and quietly asked someone to bring out a ladder, and Xiang Xiaodong climbed up silently.

He was tall and only needed to climb three steps to reach the courtyard wall. Just as he was about to climb another step, he felt his robe become tight.

Xiang Xiaodong looked down and saw Tuanzi's two little hands tightly holding the corners of his robe, with her little face tilted up, the words "You are the worst follower I have ever had" clearly manifested on her face.

Xiang Xiaodong twitched his lips. There was no other way but to tiptoe slightly on the ladder and look inside.

It was a sunny day and the craftsmen were working outside in the open air. When he looked over, he saw their faces clearly.

His younger brother was sitting among the craftsmen. Several of them were talking about something, some of which Xiang Xiaodong could not quite understand, but... he had never seen such a smile on Xiang Xiaojun's face.

Not the polite, well-behaved, or helpless kind... but excitement and joy that came from the heart. His eyes were full of light, and he looked extremely relaxed and cheerful.

Xiang Xiaodong looked at him and was stunned for a moment.

There was a little arm next to him, poking his head and whispering, "Are you happy?"

Xiang Xiaodong calmed himself down and looked at her.

Yuan Shenjue placed one hand flat on the wall and held her with the other. Only their heads were visible, and they were supported by this one hand.

He really doesn't have this ability.

He wanted to climb one more step so that he could show his head and shoulders like them. Otherwise, as a commander, how could he stand on tiptoe like this in a shameless way in front of his personal soldiers? But just as he was about to climb, Tuanzi pressed him down with his elbow and whispered, "No!!"

Especially Hao Huashi who was standing next to him, he also hung on the wall like the young master, watching while pressing his shoulder with one arm.

Xiang Xiaodong lowered his voice helplessly: "Your Highness, I just want to..."

Xinbao covered his mouth with his hand.

The little hand was covered with dust from the wall, and it covered his mouth.

Then she rolled her eyes around his head, up and down, left and right, and circled around several times. Somehow, Xiang Xiaodong understood what she meant, "Your head is so big, it's too easy to be discovered!!"

Xiang Xiaodong: “…”

He could only nod at her.

Xinbao slowly loosened his hand.

When he saw the dust on his face, Tuanzi was stunned, then he looked at his own little hands.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Xiang Xiaodong thought she would say something, but Xinbao said she did say something, but not to him.

She looked back and forth, then whispered to Yuan Shenjue, "Wife, why don't you hang on his shoulders?"

She patted his shoulder with her small hand, like a diligent vendor, trying to sell him something: "The wide ones are very convenient to put away, and they are very clean, so you won't get your hands dirty."

Xiang Xiaodong: “……???”

Yuan Shenjue smiled and refused: "No need, it's already dirty anyway."

"Oh!" So Xinbao gave his wife a comforting kiss, and several people continued to watch.

Xiang Xiaojun vaguely felt something. When he looked up, he found a row of heads on the opposite wall. His brother's eyes were visible in the middle. When he looked up and just bent his head slightly, the little princess next to him reached out and pressed his head, so only the top of his head was left.

Xiang Xiaojun: “…”

He was touched and amused.

Xiang Xiaodong was pressed three times by Tuanzi. Seeing that his brother's enthusiasm was completely wiped out by her, he said helplessly, "Forget it, let's go."

Just as he finished speaking, he saw someone coming over with a food box, someone washed his hands and went over to distribute the food, and then someone stood up to clear the table.

There were a few or a dozen people at a long table, two large bowls of dishes, one meat and one vegetable, a pot of soup, and enough rice, but they didn't seem to wash their hands?

Xiang Xiaojun seemed to stand up and wanted to wash his hands, but he was held down by the person next to him, who said, "Eat with chopsticks, not with your hands, why bother!"

Xiang Xiaodong wanted to say that my brother was a very particular person...but he ended up seeing his brother looking like "So this is how it can be done", and he took the bowl and started eating.

Xiang Xiaodong looked at it silently for a while.

He was like an old father who saw his son grow up, feeling both relieved and sad, and sighed, "Let's go."

Several people jumped down together. Hao Huashi walked with them and said, "Master, let's go to that restaurant over there for lunch. I heard the food there is good."

Xinbao touched his belly and said, "Okay."

Hao Huashi smiled and said to Xiang Xiaodong, "Master Xiang, you really don't have to worry too much. I think Xiaojun's ability should be better than theirs. In addition, because of my master's relationship, they all want to support him. The officials are here every day, who dares to cause trouble? Besides, Xiaojun is smart. I also found two inconspicuous craftsmen to keep an eye on him and take care of his drinking water, eating and other things. It's okay!"

"That's right," Xinbao nodded, "My brother is super smart!"
