The group of young ladies strolled leisurely home. The Prince's Mansion was next to the Hou and Wang families, and none of the married sisters had bought houses in the capital.
Long'er said it.
“The Prince’s mansion is so big that each of my sisters can have their own courtyard. If you don’t live here, then there will be only a few of us left. The mansion will be empty, and my heart will feel empty too.”
Which woman could stand this?
The little girl you raised from a baby is now magnified to look like a pitiful child, her eyes blinking as she stares at you.
So all the sisters lived together in the Prince's Mansion, and no separate courtyard was built for them.
The little girl and the second-year middle school girl are still the same as before, but this time the big girl moved closer to Huo Xiaolong.
Originally, the two should have gone straight home. Hou Xiangxiang skipped and hopped into the house, while Wang Tianci turned around and followed Long'er into the Wang Mansion.
Inside the Prince's Mansion, He Yi and Chunying Erya were waiting for their daughter to return. Some of the other sisters were playing with their children, while others were embroidering, playing the zither, or mixing perfumes.
No one could sleep until they saw Long'er return safely.
Even if Long'er doesn't return, they can still storm the palace at night with weapons.
"Mother, sister, I'm back."
The girl in the python robe stepped through the door and rushed straight to the ice water in front of He Yi. Long'er was hot-tempered and drank ice water all day long, but she never had stomach pains when she had her period.
"How are you? Is there anything else going on in the palace? Was there any danger today? Are you tired?" He Yi wiped the water droplets from the corners of Huo Xiaolong's mouth and then asked.
"It's alright, everything's taken care of, Mother."
Huo Xiaolong felt that although his mother was not afraid of things like dead people, just as his father said, she was a gentle and refined young lady from a wealthy family.
The manager can handle all the money and money management for you each day; there's no need to tell her about these things.
Especially cutting someone's throat yourself, how bloody! It's better if your mother doesn't know.
"Aunt He." Da Ni'er spoke up at this moment.
"Is Ni'er staying at home today? Auntie will go and tidy up your room, or will you stay with Long'er?"
He Yi was very gentle, the gentlest person Wang Dani had ever met in her life. She felt that Huo Xiaolong was very lucky to have such a mother. The key point was that she could not hit her. When she hit her, it was only a light slap. Zhong Erjie knew that Long'er was very resistant to beatings. Even when he cried, it was not a real cry.
Unlike her, she was truly in pain and truly cried.
Don't underestimate her just because her mother doesn't know martial arts. Do you think decades of kneading dough were for nothing?
That slap on the buttocks not only hurt the skin, but also the flesh.
Da Ni'er shook her head, then said expressionlessly.
“Auntie, Long’er killed someone again today. Just like when we killed prisoners on the grasslands, she killed people. Weapons are not allowed in the palace, so she smashed a teacup and stabbed someone in the throat.”
After she finished speaking, a dark-skinned girl dressed in grassland attire ran out of the palace. Miao Cuifang was so fast that she craned her neck to watch.
"Why didn't we realize this child had such a talent for light-body skills earlier?" Master Miao said to his wife beside him.
Liu Xu smiled and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.
"How could he not run fast? Look how wide his eyes are!"
At this moment, Huo Xiaolong's mouth was agape, his eyes wide open, in disbelief.
She knew her older sister was sarcastic, but she didn't expect her to be sarcastic to this extent.
He Yi had previously told them that when they went out to do things, whether it was killing or carrying out executions, the first thing a human being should do is respect life.
"You can't kill people, Mother?" Huo Xiaolong, still a child, asked.
He Yi chuckled and shook her head, saying:
"That's not quite right, I just wanted to tell you not to humiliate people."
“I know that, Auntie, but it’s not like when we kill prisoners on the grasslands, is it?” Dani asked.
"right."
Huo Xiaolong wiped his mouth with his hand and asked Da Nier.
"What's it like when you kill prisoners on the grasslands?"
Da Ni'er thought for a moment and then used a very apt metaphor to say...
"It's like killing a chicken. The day they become prisoners, they are no longer human; they are slaves."
“Slaves are human beings too. You see, even we masters can’t just beat and kill our servants.”
"No, from the moment they became slaves, they were no longer human beings, but livestock, livestock that could be beaten and scolded at will, livestock that could be slaughtered by others."
From then on, Huo Xiaolong and Da Nier always killed people swiftly and decisively on the battlefield.
Cen Ang wouldn't say anything about this, since the Empress Dowager was the one who provoked first, and Long'er was just teaching her a lesson.
She knew Wang Dani'er wouldn't bring her home anything good! No wonder she wasn't in a hurry to go home and learn how to make pancakes today! She was waiting for her here!
"Wang Dani'er! How could you tell on me like that?"
Huo Xiaolong's voice could be heard clearly by people in the two neighboring prefectures.
At this moment, Da Ni'er, who had already returned home, climbed onto the wall and said with a serious expression.
“You’ve been tattling on me since we were kids. I thought about this revenge for a long time. It’s okay, I’m just mean-spirited. You’ll get over it after a beating.”
"...??"
He Yi's face behind Huo Xiaolong turned noticeably gloomy, and the other women, who were also masters of reading people's expressions, all left their stools and returned to their own courtyards.
"Let's go, no regrets, let's go back to sleep."
"Come on, Siman, you won't be able to get up for school tomorrow."
Ruyi also held Xiao An'an, who had just learned to walk.
"No, Mother, I want to see Auntie get beaten."
Bu Hui is a boy, tough and outspoken.
Siman, standing beside him, nodded in agreement.
An'an can't speak clearly yet, but he only wants to play with his older brother and sister. He goes wherever they go, so he cries as soon as Ruyi picks him up and takes him back.
Miao Cuifang watched as his daughter-in-law's smile gradually turned dangerous, and he wanted to reach out and help his son.
