And so, the group witnessed the two girls arguing about who was the older sister and who was the younger sister. They argued for a long time but couldn't reach a conclusion. In the end, one girl was triumphant, while the other was frustrated, and everyone burst into laughter.
"Your sweetheart and that little Mongolian princess are quite interesting."
E'ting watched the two childish kids arguing about calling each other "sister" and "brother," and whispered to Ertai beside her.
"Do you want to get scolded again?"
Ertai stared straight ahead with a serious expression.
"Tsk, as if you weren't lost in thought. Can you tone down your gaze from Shen Gege? Hey, tell me, what's that Mongolian princess doing here?"
Even after being rebuked by Ertai, E'ting wasn't annoyed. Instead, she retorted, nudging Ertai beside her with her elbow and asking him a series of questions.
Why do you always focus on that Mongolian princess?
When Ertai heard his brother mention the Mongolian princess again and again, he sensed that something was wrong.
"What do you mean by 'always paying attention'? It's the first time I've seen this, I'm just curious."
As if something had been touched on, E Ting, like a cat with its fur standing on end, raised her voice slightly.
Fortunately, Ertai, who had anticipated this, covered his mouth.
"I was just saying, why are you getting so worked up?"
Ertai glanced around and, after making sure no one was watching, whispered in Eting's ear.
He was incredibly grateful that the two of them were at the end.
"Mmm-mmm-mmm—" Let me go, who's getting agitated? Who's getting agitated?
...
"It is an honor for me that the Mongolian prince has traveled a long way to Beijing. I have prepared a state banquet to entertain him."
After the two girls finished speaking, the Emperor and Ziker continued their pleasantries.
"Okay, by the way, this is my precious daughter, Saiya."
Ziker pulled over Saiya, who was standing to the side exchanging glances with someone deep in thought, and introduced her to the Emperor.
Saiya also withdrew her gaze from Shen Nian and obediently performed a Mongolian salute.
"Very well, these are all my sons."
The Emperor nodded to Saiya and gestured to the row of princes standing behind him.
"Great, they all look very energetic."
Ziker praised her, and Saiya nodded in agreement.
But his gaze fell on two people in the last row who were complaining to each other about being gagged, and one of them was calmly listening to the other's rambling. He raised an eyebrow.
These two are quite bold, daring to whisper to each other in this setting.
But Saiya's gaze was drawn more to the person who looked defiant.
That person seemed more interesting than these prim and proper princes, and Saiya's eyes lit up with interest.
I thought all the people in the Qing Dynasty were so rigid and boring, but I didn't expect there to be an exception.
However, the person next to that person should be the man that Nian Nian mentioned when she replied to her letter. There is only one person present who matches the gentle temperament described by Nian Nian, and it must be him.
He was indeed born with a beautiful appearance, elegant and refined, and as Niannian said, you could feel his gentle aura from a distance.
Hmm, it does seem suitable for Niannian.
Niannian is simple-minded and straightforward, not suited to people with complicated and scheming minds; she's just right.
I just don't know if he's good to Niannian. Although Niannian said in her letter that the man is very good to her, I still don't trust him because I haven't met him in person.
Some things are better seen with one's own eyes. If that person treats Niannian badly, she must take Niannian back to Mongolia this time.
Shen Nian noticed Saiya's gaze behind him, but there was no worry in his eyes. That girl wouldn't like gentle people. As for the impact on the plot...
