Chapter 570 Brother's Choice

Si Linglong was stunned, obviously not expecting such an answer.

She opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

"I thought..."

She thought her brother was also prepared to let her stay in the palace forever.

Otherwise, how could so many things be packed up?

And those sets of clothes were clearly brought in for her because they were worried that she wouldn't have the right clothes for a while after entering the palace.

As for those toys, it was obvious that they were Li Sheng's favorites.

Si Linglong thought about it and always felt that something was wrong.

[No, it's very wrong.]

[Could it be that my brother is planning to let Li Sheng live in the palace, but Li Sheng himself doesn't know? ]

[Then why did you tell her that you would wait for her at home? ]

Si Linglong always felt that there was something strange.

[The relationship between Li Sheng and her brother has become so deep? ]

Although she had initially entrusted the child to Si Jinyu because she thought Li Sheng liked him more, but now...

Si Linglong inexplicably had the illusion that she was outshined by her own elder brother...

Putting aside the strange feeling in her heart, Si Linglong decided to find out what Li Sheng meant.

"Fenfen, tell me, is it because you have agreed with your brother that you cannot stay in the palace for the time being, or... do you actually want to live with your brother?"

Li Sheng looked at Si Linglong, his face seemed a little uneasy, but he still asked her carefully, "Can I live with my brother?"

Si Linglong's heart skipped a beat.

I never expected that I would fall out of favor!

Just looking at Li Sheng's cautious look, Si Linglong couldn't help but feel soft in her heart again.

Suppressing the strange feeling in her heart, Si Linglong thought for a while, and then slowed down her tone. She didn't give her a definite answer, but only said, "Of course it's fine if you want to live with your brother, but I have to discuss this matter with my brother before making a decision, okay?"

If it was before, Si Linglong might have just said it was no problem.

After all, according to the original intention, Li Sheng would be raised in the Si family, and her brother would be responsible for arranging her upbringing.

And Si Jinyu agreed at first.

But now...

Si Linglong wasn't sure.

Si Jinyu already knew that Li Sheng was not a human being and was unwilling to support her anymore, so when she let Li Sheng enter the palace, she was prepared to let her live in the palace for a long time.

Si Linglong felt that she should ask her elder brother before making a decision.

After all, her elder brother had no obligation to support Li Sheng for her.

It's not possible for me to make many demands on the Si family just because I have taken possession of someone else's sister's body by taking advantage of her identity as a sister.

As for letting Li Sheng stay in the Si family, her eldest brother's opinion will ultimately be the decision.

Thinking of this, Si Linglong simply asked someone to go to Xuanzheng Hall.

After all, her elder brother couldn't just enter the palace casually.

Only A Yue can summon the troops.

But Si Linglong wanted to meet with Si Jinyu to explain the situation clearly, which was inevitably complicated.

After thinking about it, Si Linglong simply let the three little ones stay in the palace to play, and went to the side room to write a letter to her eldest brother.

Have someone deliver the letter together with the imperial decree to Si Jinyu. It is up to him to decide.

…

At the Si family, Si Jinyu returned to the yard early from the business.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a small brown fox running across the corridor.

He then remembered that he had forgotten to bring this little fellow with him when he entered the palace.

I don’t know if that little girl will miss me.

As Si Jinyu was thinking about this, she unconsciously walked to the room that belonged to Li Sheng.

Because he was worried that her problem would be discovered, he placed her directly in his own yard when he brought her back to Beijing.

After all, no one usually breaks into his yard.

But this is not actually the norm.

Because now Li Sheng is no longer the little dumpling of about four years old, but a young girl who looks like she is almost reaching the age of marriage.

If word gets out in the future that she lives in the same courtyard with him, it will be bad for her reputation.

Thinking of this, Si Jinyu subconsciously walked to the bed that belonged to her.

The calico tiger stayed there alone.

I don't know what she was thinking when she was choosing things.

I clearly gave him a pair, but he insisted on keeping this one and refused to take it away.

Si Jinyu reached out, took the flowered tiger in his hand, and carefully stroked the fine cotton cloth on it.

Maybe because it is often held while sleeping, there are slight wears on the surface of the cloth tiger, but it does not affect its beauty.

"Could it be a souvenir left for me?" Si Jinyu murmured softly. She felt that this reason was very valid, so she simply took the cloth tiger away from her room.

He then took it back to his own bedroom.

He thought that if she had forgotten, he would wait until she remembered and then discuss it with him.

Now he just assumed that the calico tiger and the little fox were both for him.

Si Jinyu was thinking so and had just put the cloth tiger down when she heard some noise coming from outside the yard.

The servant walked hurriedly, holding a letter in his hand. When he saw him coming out, he hurriedly said, "Sir, something has been sent out from the palace."

Si Jinyu raised his eyebrows slightly as he looked at the letter, and his eyes subconsciously scanned the room. He thought to himself, could it be that the little girl remembered that she had left something behind so quickly that she specifically asked Linglong to send him a letter and asked him to prepare it and send it to the palace for her?

Si Jinyu waved to signal the servant to leave, then opened the envelope, looked at the letter paper and a temporary badge inside, and after a moment of silence, unfolded the letter. When he saw the contents clearly, Si Jinyu's eyes deepened.

After a long while, he held the letter in his palm, raised his eyes, and a helpless smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

What the letter said was that it told everyone everything about Li Sheng's identity, and also stated that Li Sheng wanted to return to the Si family.

In the end, just let him choose.

[If my brother doesn't mind Li Sheng's identity and is willing to continue to keep her in the mansion, you can bring your badge to the palace to pick her up before sunset. If you don't want to, just pretend you haven't seen this letter.]

Before sunset, if she couldn't wait for him to pick her up, she would know his choice and would find a way to keep her in the palace and take care of her so that he wouldn't have to worry about her.

Si Jinyu looked at the letter in his hand for a long time, finally threw the letter into the stove beside him, and then slowly stood up.
