"I don't know if I will have the chance to go back."
Looking up at the fireworks blooming in the sky, Jiang Ranli murmured softly.
"Where do you want to go back to?" a voice sounded behind her.
Jiang Ranli was startled by the sudden sound and turned around to see that the Fourteenth Prince had walked over at some point, holding a wine jug in his hand and looking at him with a smile.
I remember when I first met the Fourteenth Prince, he was just seventeen years old, a young man in fine clothes and riding a horse. Now, after the New Year, he is twenty-one years old. The youthfulness has faded, leaving behind a heroic and handsome appearance.
"When did you come?" Jiang Ranli asked with a smile.
The Fourteenth Prince walked to her side and stood side by side with her, saying, "Just arrived."
"Why did you come out? What if the Emperor and Empress De come looking for you?" Jiang Ranli said as she secretly compared her height with the Fourteenth Prince. She couldn't help feeling a little frustrated and secretly sighed that he had grown taller.
Noticing her little gesture, the Fourteenth Prince laughed, raised his hand and patted her head, with a barely audible hint of doting between his brows.
"Hey, stop hitting my head, I still need to grow taller."
Because she was too familiar with the Fourteenth Prince, and because Jiang Ranli traveled from the modern era, her thinking was not so old-fashioned. She would often flirt with the Fourteenth Prince, so she didn't think there was anything wrong.
"Are you still growing? Please stop teasing me," the Fourteenth Prince was amused by Jiang Ranli's words and couldn't help but stretch out his big hand to pat her head again.
Jiang Ranli looked at him unhappily, raised his hand and slapped his big hand that was patting his head away.
"Fourteenth Master, no matter what, I am your ninth sister-in-law. Can you please give me some face? Why can't I grow taller?"
Hearing this, the smile on the corner of Fourteenth Prince's lips froze for a moment, and after a pause, it returned to normal, "You are not even older than me, so what if I don't give you face?"
Speaking of age, Jiang Ranli was really depressed. According to modern age, she should be at least twenty-three or twenty-four this year, but in this ancient time, she was only twenty years old, not even older than the Fourteenth Prince. The point was, at the age of twenty, she already had a child who was over three years old.
In this evil old society, people get married too early, which leads to having children early. Just imagine in modern times, if people knew that a 20-year-old had a child over three years old, it would definitely shock many people.
Seeing Jiang Ranli's conflicted expression, Fourteenth Prince thought that he had made her unhappy. After thinking for a while, he said, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have not given you face. Please smile. Don't look so sad."
Hearing this, Jiang Ranli came back to his senses and looked at the worried Fourteenth Prince and burst into laughter.
Seeing this, the Fourteenth Prince was stunned for a moment, realizing that he had been deceived, but when he saw Jiang Ranli laughing happily, he also laughed.
Behind them, beside a rockery, Yinzhen stood at the corner, silently looking at Jiang Ranli and the Fourteenth Prince who were laughing together.
On the other side, Dong E was sitting next to Yinzhen. Qingmei walked up to her and whispered in her ear, "Fujin, everything is ready."
A gleam of light flashed in Dong E's eyes, a smile blossomed on her red lips, and she nodded gently to Qingmei behind her.
The Fourteenth Prince and Jiang Ranli stood by the railing in the corridor, talking to each other from time to time, and bursts of laughter could be heard.
"It's too cold outside, let's go back," said the Fourteenth Prince.
Jiang Ranli shook her head. She still felt a little bored. "I'll stay here for a while and go back later. You go back first."
