Upon hearing the familiar voice of his fourteenth brother, Yinmi instinctively retorted, but upon hearing that it was related to his beloved Master Lin, he immediately let go of his hand.
Yinmi was a sensible child. Although he liked Master Lin, he also knew that Master Lin was in poor health, which was a common understanding in the palace. In his heart, he regarded Master Lin as a porcelain doll.
"Master Lin, are you feeling unwell? Should we call the imperial physician?" The chubby boy's brows furrowed with worry, looking as if he was about to summon the imperial physician.
Qingyin quickly stopped Yinmi from showing excessive concern, saying, "Young Prince Yinmi is well-mannered. I am not uncomfortable. Young Prince Yinmi, there is no need to worry."
Turning his head, Qingyin smiled slightly at the tall figure following behind. He was indeed tall; he was 1.78 meters tall, while the man was about 1.9 meters tall, his muscular body immediately blocking his view.
"Your humble servant Lin Ruhai greets the Fourteenth Prince and the Twenty-Fourth Prince. I have offended you earlier and have not yet had a chance to pay my respects to you."
Following her father's voice, Lin Daiyu cleverly imitated Qingyin's bow and said, "This humble woman, Lin Daiyu, greets the Fourteenth Prince and the Twenty-Fourth Prince."
Seeing Master Lin bow, Yinmi secretly glared at his fourteenth brother who had run over. It was all his fault for making such a big fuss and for making Master Lin bow. He hoped that the master would not get tired.
He quickly helped Qingyin up by her chubby little hand, saying, "Master Lin is my teacher, no need to be so polite. This is also a wedding banquet, no need for formalities."
Yinzhen, who was being glared at, touched his nose and coughed a few times. "Well, Master Lin, please rise. I heard a lot about Master Lin's talents from my younger brother, so I came here specifically to make your acquaintance."
"But who is this behind me?" Yinzhen looked at the little girl standing behind Qingyin with some doubt. Although she was also very beautiful, she was nothing compared to Qingyin.
"This is my only daughter, Lin Daiyu, who is attending this banquet with me," Qingyin introduced gently, her eyes filled with tenderness as she looked at the young girl.
But to Yinzhen, those seemingly ordinary words were like a sudden, devastating blow. Looking at Qingyin's delicate, fair face, he exclaimed in surprise, "This is your daughter?"
How could such a young nobleman have such a grown daughter? Yinzhen was bewildered and shocked.
Yinzhen, who was still unaware of Qingyin's true age, was slightly stunned. Yinmi, who was standing to the side, didn't care about his older brother's silly appearance. He looked at the young lady behind Qingyin with curiosity and enthusiasm and said sweetly, "Wow, Sister Lin, you are so beautiful too, just as beautiful as Master Lin."
He knew that Master Lin had an only daughter, who was also a county princess personally bestowed by the Emperor. She was indeed beautiful, no less so than his own daughter, and even bore a resemblance to Master Lin. The similarity in their faces made Yinmi feel even closer to her.
The little girl, who was being praised so directly, also liked the little boy in front of her. She smiled and said, "This humble woman thanks Prince Yin for the praise. Prince Yin is also very handsome."
