Ren Yaoqi was just thinking about going to Baoping Hutong with Ren Yaohua to visit her grandparents, but the Yanbei Palace sent a carriage over, saying that the princess had brought something back for her. The princess knew that she had come to Yunyang City today, so she sent someone to pick her up and take her to the palace.
The maid who came to pick her up, Ren Yaoqi, was recognized by her. She was indeed the one who served the princess.
Ren Yaoqi asked Ren Yaohua if she wanted to go with him. Ren Yaohua shook her head and said, "Why would I go? You should go early and come back early."
Ren Yaoqi had no choice but to board the carriage of the Yanbei Palace. However, what Ren Yaoqi didn't know was that not long after she left, Ren Yaohua actually ran into the little girl from Lei Paner.
After arriving at the Yanbei Palace, Ren Yaoqi first met with the princess. The princess had her maid, Su Jin, bring the things Xiao Jinglin had sent back to Ren Yaoqi. They turned out to be some strange little trinkets, like a wind chime strung with bones from an unknown source, and a large, hollow drum covered in snake skin.
The princess also came over curiously to take a look. After reading it, she shook her head and laughed, "You came all this way, and I thought it was something fun. What the hell is this?"
Ren Yaoqi picked up a colorful headscarf and smiled, saying, "When I heard the princess talk about the border, I was curious and always liked to ask questions like 'What is that?' The princess said that when she went to the border again, she would bring something back for me to see."
The princess finally understood.
Ren Yaoqi got the things and chatted with the princess for a while. Later, when he saw that the princess had a guest visiting, he took his leave.
It was just that Ren Yaoqi had just come out of the Jiuyang Palace when he met Xiao Jingxi.
Xiao Jingxi was wearing a silver-white formal suit today, with a graceful and elegant demeanor. He looked like he was in a painting standing there.
It has been more than half a year since the two last parted in the carriage, and the last time they exchanged anonymous letters was several months ago.
Thinking of the "first sight joy" that she had kept in the drawer, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat when she saw Xiao Jingxi.
"Have you seen everything Jinglin had someone bring back for you?" Xiao Jingxi looked at Ren Yaoqi and smiled as if nothing had happened.
Ren Yaoqi nodded and pointed to the pile of things in Apple's hand: "It's all here."
Xiao Jingxi looked at the toys of all sizes and couldn't help but chuckle. He joked, "She only remembered to bring things for you, and even specifically told the people who came not to let me peek."
Ren Yaoqi also joked, "If Master Xiao likes something, just pick it."
"What do you like?" Xiao Jingxi repeated these words on his lips and glanced at Ren Yaoqi.
When he looked at her like that, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but turn her eyes away slightly, not daring to look him in the eye.
The two were silent for a moment, and Ren Yaoqi asked, "Are you going to Kyoto today too?"
Xiao Jingxi nodded and said, "Yes, I'll set off with your father and the others this afternoon."
Ren Yaoqi paused and said, "Then...be careful and have a safe trip."
Ren Yaoqi actually wanted to remind him about the Ningxia General, but he didn't know how to start.
However, Xiao Jingxi seemed to sense that Ren Yaoqi had something else to say, so he looked at her and smiled faintly, "Are you still going to tell me to come back before winter this year?"
