"And another thing," Ji Linyuan continued, "He usually goes out to meet guests, dressed neatly and wearing a lot of silver jewelry. He always forgets to take off his earrings and forehead ornaments, so I remind him every day."
"The small braids tied at the back of the hair must be taken out before showering, otherwise you can't sleep directly with messy hair."
"Yes." The steward felt increasingly uneasy. After the late queen passed away, no one had been so attentive to the young master. Even the king only gave him occasional instructions. This young prince was taking it far too seriously.
Perhaps disturbed by the voices, Si Jin slowly turned around, covered Ji Linyuan's hand with one hand, subconsciously held his hand, pulled him closer to her, and hugged him even tighter, as if she were holding some precious treasure, unwilling to let go for even a moment.
The hickeys on her neck, along with the spider lilies, were clearly visible to the butler, instantly making the middle-aged man blush.
Good heavens, how could those two men...?
"Oh, if there's nothing else, you can leave now."
"Yes." After receiving Ji Linyuan's order, the old steward slowly withdrew. As his heartbeat gradually calmed down, he suddenly remembered that the king had asked him about Ji Langzai's residence a few days ago, but he hadn't taken it to heart at the time.
Looking at it this way, something really serious has happened!
Should we tell the king? No, no, this is a royal secret and cannot be discussed lightly. Let it remain a secret until the king discovers it himself.
The housekeeper left, and the door slowly closed. In the autumn of Miao territory, the house was warm even without charcoal fire.
Si Jin gradually came to her senses and, grasping Ji Linyuan's hand, asked, "When are we leaving?"
"I'll leave when you wake up." Ji Linyuan reached out and gently rubbed Si Jin's stomach, asking, "You've slept all day, are you still feeling unwell?"
Did you sleep... for that long?
Si Jin sighed softly. He thought they still had a day to spend together, but he shouldn't have agreed to let this bastard ride back on horseback. He was so tired that he was out of his mind.
"Oh, then I'll sleep a little longer." Si Jin let go of his hand, turned over and continued to sleep. The ordinary action was full of sullenness.
She's strangely...cute.
Ji Linyuan could only continue to massage his waist and rub his stomach: "Go to sleep, I'll wake you up in a bit. Jinjin, I'm going to sneak away. It's easier to march at night. I can stay until midnight at the latest."
Hearing this, Si Jin also lost her desire to sleep and turned to look at him: "There is a small path winding around the mountains on the east side of Miao territory. Although it is difficult to travel, it is not easy to be discovered. It will take at least a month to reach the grassland."
“I know.” Ji Linyuan reached out and took out an ugly little purse, placing it in Si Jin’s hand: “Take this. It’s a little custom of our grasslands. When I’m not around, we hang it by the bedside to keep us safe.”
Si Jin looked at the two ugly red characters "Peace" on the bright yellow purse and muttered, "How ugly, who embroidered this?"
The little wolf cub, who had been secretly embroidering for three months and whose hands were covered in needle marks, said: "Never mind, give it back to me."
But when he reached out to snatch it, Si Jin dodged him even faster: "Can you take back what you gave me? You little wolf cub, you're so stingy."
The bugles outside sounded three times, and Si Jin stopped arguing with him and stood up, saying, "Let me see you off."
It was the first time he had talked about a long-distance relationship in a small setting, and he felt a little reluctant to let it go. Si Jin thought to himself with a self-deprecating smile: How sentimental.
"No need." Ji Linyuan pressed down on his hand, not letting him leave: "The military camp is quite a distance from the residence. It's windy and the dew is heavy outside today. If you catch a cold, I'll worry about you again."
Si Jin didn't argue with him, and handed over the purse: "Then hang it up for me, hang it by the bedside."
"Mmm." Ji Linyuan took it, and as he raised his hand to hang the purse, he tilted his head slightly. Before he could react, Si Jin kissed his Adam's apple.
