Pei Huan nodded, "Well, yours is indeed more magnificent than this one. I heard that it was built specially for the eldest princess by the Jing Dynasty.
That must have been over a hundred years ago. It was rumored that the eldest princess was very talented, not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but also well versed in military strategy.
She had led troops in battle for many years without a single defeat. As a reward, she was given the most luxurious princess's palace, which was much larger than the later royal palace.
The various flowers and plants planted in the garden were all very rare. However, the eldest princess had a chronic illness caused by leading troops in the war, and she had no family and no children in her life.
So after her death, the Princess Mansion was left idle. After so many years of renovation, the Princess Mansion was well preserved.
Many princesses have wanted it over the years, but none were worthy, so it remained empty until now, when it was given to you."
Little Bell had never heard of these things, but she still found them very novel.
The children were shocked.
"Wow, she's also a female general! So impressive!"
"Is the princess's mansion really that big? Is it even bigger than this prince's palace? Oh, if I had known this earlier, I would have followed my younger sister when she went to the capital, at least to go and take a look."
"Why rush? There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Don't think about it for now. We're at the palace now. Hey, someone's coming out!"
Everyone quickly looked towards the door. Xiao Lingling squinted her eyes and smiled. She knew this person. It was the mother Liu from before.
Zhao also recognized her, "Oh, this is Mother Liu!"
Mother Liu hurried to the carriage. "Greetings, Madam! Greetings, Miss Lin. My Madam asked me to wait here early in the morning. When she saw the carriage approaching, she guessed it was you.
Everyone, please come in quickly. Our wife has already prepared everything. Someone will take the carriage to the backyard stable to feed it. Don't be patient."
Pei Huan got out of the carriage and smiled at her, "Mother Liu, long time no see."
Madam Liu smiled broadly, "Yes, it is my great fortune to see you again. Please follow me."
As soon as they entered the palace, perhaps because they were unfamiliar with it, the children, who were originally excited, immediately quieted down and followed the adults obediently, looking around as they walked in.
It is worthy of being a royal palace. Passing through the simple and elegant front yard and entering the backyard, all kinds of flowers, plants and trees complement each other. It is literally a scene every five steps. It is not only beautiful, but also has a unique charm, and exudes a sense of elegance.
It was not until everyone crossed the garden and arrived at the main courtyard that they saw more people coming and going.
The people standing in the corridor holding the child are Liu Qingrou and Prince Xiang Su Daoxiu.
Seeing Pei Huan, the couple hurried forward and bowed to her.
"Your humble servant (your humble servant) greets the Empress's wife!"
Pei Huan quickly helped the man up and said, "Hurry up, hurry up. There's no need to be so polite outside. What's more, I'm traveling incognito, so there's no need to be so polite.
These are the two children, come here, let me hug them!"
Pei Huan smiled and handed the second child in his arms to Pei Huan, letting him hold him in his arms.
The child was very fair and tender, and because he ate well, his little face was chubby. His big eyes looked at Pei Huan eagerly, which made people's hearts melt.
She doesn't cry or make a fuss, which is very cute.
"Oh, so cute! It's the first time I hold him, and he doesn't cry or make a fuss. He's so adorable. Qingrou, although childbirth was a bit dangerous, it's worth it to have two such cute sons."
Liu Qingrou shook her head helplessly. "You haven't seen him cry at the top of his lungs. When he's being good, he's really good, but when he's being naughty, he's really naughty too. No matter how much you try to coax him, it's really torturous."
I don’t know if he understood his mother’s fatal complaint, but suddenly his mouth pursed and he burst into tears.
The voice was so loud that Pei Huan was almost deafened.
The two brothers really have a good relationship. When one of them cries, the other one immediately follows and they sing in unison like a song.
Liu Qingrou was so overwhelmed that she quickly took the child and started to coax him, hugging and kissing him, but it didn't work.
Pei Huan was also at a loss. She hadn't taken care of the child for a long time and she felt very unfamiliar with it.
Just when the couple was having a headache, Xiao Lingling came forward and touched the chubby little hand of the second child on tiptoe.
"Be good, little brother. Don't cry. If you cry too much, your eyes will turn red and won't look pretty anymore."
It’s strange to say, they cried loudly, and Xiao Lingling didn’t cry loudly on purpose. Even Liu Qingrou didn’t hear what she said, but the child seemed to understand and stopped crying abruptly.
Not only that, he blinked his tearful eyes and tried to look down, as if he wanted to see the person who was holding his little hand.
But the mother was holding her too tightly, and her neck had no strength, so she could not see anything except little Bell's furry head.
Liu Qingrou was stunned. "Hey? Why did you stop? Why are you so easy to talk to today?"
She sat down with back pain and looked at her son in her arms in surprise.
Pei Huan smiled and said, "Maybe they understood what Xiao Lingling said and were afraid that their crying would be ugly?"
Liu Qingrou lowered her head and realized that Xiao Lingdang had held her son's hand at some point, and the two were staring at each other.
The son who had been crying just now looked at the little bell eagerly. The next moment, he actually burst out laughing, stretched out his little hand towards the little bell, and shouted something.
Liu Qingrou was surprised, but when she recalled the miraculous things that happened when she gave birth, she didn't ask any more questions but laughed instead.
"It seems like you still remember your sister who saved you? Do you want your sister to hold you? Your sister is still small and can't hold you!"
Xiao Lingling smiled and did not argue. She could actually hold the child, but the child was too fragile, so she decided not to hold him. It would be bad if he got hurt or fell.
She took out two golden bracelets from her bosom with a smile, "Auntie, this is a gift from me to my two younger brothers. This can keep them safe, you can give it to them."
This is not a magic weapon, but a divine power bestowed upon it by gods in the past, so it can still ensure safety.
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingrou immediately accepted it without saying a word of courtesy. She had an inexplicable sense of trust in Xiao Lingling.
"Okay, then auntie will take it. Come, auntie will put it on them now."
This bracelet has a movable top and can be adjusted in size. It is hollow and not heavy, so it won't be uncomfortable for them to wear.
However, the two children originally had other silver bracelets on their wrists, but Liu Qingrou ruthlessly took them off and replaced them with the ones given by Xiao Lingling.
Little Bell smiled and said nothing more, standing in front of her and teasing her brother.
