The person lurking in the shadows saw Xiao Xi'er leave and then emerged from the corner of the wall.
"Your Majesty, why don't you go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to visit the little princess?"
Seeing that Consort Li was staring at the little princess for a long time, unable to come back to her senses, Liu Si could understand something.
"Liu Si, I wanted to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to see Xi'er, but His Majesty doesn't want me to get too close to Xi'er."
"Your Majesty, didn't you visit often when the little princess was not yet one year old?"
"His Majesty saw that Xi'er was too young to remember things at that time, so he sent me. Later..."
Xiao Liyun watched Xiao Xi'er's departing figure, her eyes filled with sorrow.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?"
"Let's go, Willow Branch, back to the palace."
Xiao Liyun heard Liu Si call her name several times, pulled herself out of her memories, and left with Liu Si.

"Command"
"What's wrong?"
"The second and third princes have been pacing around outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but they don't seem to be planning to come in."
"Okay. You may leave."
"yes"
Zou Heng, hearing that Qin Jingmu and Qin Jingtai had come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation again, couldn't help but think, "Interesting. They were just hung from a tree to be fed to the tigers yesterday, and they're here again today."
Should I admire their courage and their willingness to face punishment, or should I be happy for them being punished?
"Brother, when do you think Master will come out?"
"I don't know either, let's wait and see."
Qin Jingtai would sit, stand, walk, and then sit again, repeating this process over and over.
...
"Brother, I have an idea!"
"What method?"
"Brother, wait for me here, I'll be right back."
Qin Jingtai finished speaking and ran away.
Half an hour later...
Qin Jingmu saw... his silly younger brother carrying a basin of potatoes??
When Qin Jingtai approached, well… I wasn’t mistaken, it was a pot of potatoes.
As Qin Jingtai approached, he saw Qin Jingmu with a troubled expression.
"Brother, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Are you...hungry? Why are you carrying a whole bowl of potatoes?"
"I'm not hungry. There are potatoes here, and sweet potatoes too."
As Qin Jingtai spoke, he took the potatoes off the plate and placed them on the ground; the basin was full of sweet potatoes.
"You...why are you taking these things if you're not hungry?"
"Brother, let me tell you."
Qin Jingtai walked over to Qin Jingmu and whispered a few words in Qin Jingmu's ear.
Are you sure?
"I'm sure. What do you think, bro?"
“…”
"Brother, let's come together."
Qin Jingmu said he really didn't want to do this with his silly younger brother.
Forget it, otherwise I wouldn't know how to get Commander Zou Heng out. This method, though... well, it's not exactly a perfect solution.
But it's one way, isn't it?
While he was still trying to convince himself, Qin Jingtai put a potato in his hand.
When she looked up, she saw her younger brother had already started throwing the potatoes he was holding into the pot.
"What fell down?"
A guard stepped forward, picked up a potato from the ground, and looked surprised.
"Commander, a potato has fallen from the sky!"
Zou Heng, with his back to the young guard, chuckled when he heard potatoes falling from the sky.
"A potato fell from the sky?"
"Yes, Commander."
Why don't you just say that a Lin Daiyu fell from the sky to be your wife?
"If only a Lin Daiyu would fall from the sky and become my wife, that would be wonderful!"
The guard stood there, scratching his head foolishly, grinning and daydreaming.
"Daddy, I think I saw something red falling from the sky!"
"Really? No, is Xiaoxi hungry and wants some goat milk?"
Qin Jue heard a sound, but it disappeared the next second, and he didn't pay attention.
"Brother, look, I threw it in!"
After throwing the potato into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Qin Jingtai looked at Qin Jingmu with a smug expression.
His face practically screamed, "I'm awesome, bro, you should get started soon!"
Qin Jingmu hesitated, not wanting to throw it away, but couldn't resist his younger brother's constant suggestive glances.
Qin Jingmu also threw in the potato. Qin Jingtai watched as he threw in the potato, then stuffed another one into his hand.
Qin Jingtai also took one, and right after I threw the one in, he threw the one in after him.
"Commander, it's true, a potato fell from the sky!"
Zou Heng turned around and indeed saw a potato on the ground.
"There really is something in the sky..."
"bump--"
"bump--"
Zou Heng and the young guard were both stunned. Zou Heng stared at the potatoes on the ground and realized that they hadn't fallen from the sky; someone had deliberately thrown them.
The young guard kept shouting, "Assassin! Catch the assassin!"
"Daddy, I saw something falling from the sky again!"
Qin Jue naturally saw it too, and carried Xiao Xi'er towards the door.
"What's going on...?"
"Thump—"
Zou Heng was hit by a sweet potato again.
As Qin Jue stepped outside, another sweet potato came hurtling towards him.
He used his internal energy to knock it off.
Qin Jue saw potatoes and sweet potatoes scattered all over the yard. His face darkened.
"What happened?"
"I don't know either. I'll go check right away."
Zou Heng hurriedly went outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation
"Brother, we've thrown so much away, why hasn't Master come out yet?"
Qin Jingmu was about to answer Qin Jingtai when he saw a dark-faced man behind his younger brother…
Brother, why are you ignoring me?
Seeing that his brother was ignoring him, Qin Jingtai grabbed Qin Jingmu's arm and shook it vigorously.
Seeing Zou Heng emerge with a dark expression, Qin Jingmu grabbed Qin Jingtai's hand without hesitation and ran away into the distance.
