"There was a little duck standing in line, trying to align with the ducks in front of it, but it couldn't. So it shouted to the ducks in front of it: 'I can't align myself, duck. Do you hear me? I'm sorry.'"
The girl's voice was sweet and soft, and her pronunciation was clear. Jiang Shi could not help but smile when he heard the homonym.
The boy's smile was usually gentle and reserved, but at this moment the upward arc of his mouth widened, and his picturesque eyebrows and eyes were filled with a light smile.
"I'm sorry." He looked at Yu Tanqi, and his whole body became happier. "I heard it." Then you, did you hear it?
Yu Tanqi continued, "One day a pig and a tiger went to spend the night in a cave. The next morning the tiger died. Do you know why?"
Jiang Shi thought about it and said uncertainly: "Could it be that the pig killed the tiger?"
Yu Tanqi blinked and said cunningly: "I don't know either. Only pigs know."
Jiang Shi was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but chuckle.
"Okay, I'm a pig." The boy's gentle and smiling voice was filled with a doting that he himself didn't even realize.
Yu Tanqi blushed slightly and said a little embarrassedly: "I was just joking."
Jiang Shi narrowed his eyes and said, "Your jokes are very funny. I like listening to them."
"Then I'll tell you a few more."
"good."
Linlang and Danqing stood outside the door, listening to the laughter of the two people inside. Danqing sighed, "I haven't heard the master laugh so happily in a long time."
Linlang's hands trembled, and she looked at him in surprise: "What you said doesn't sound right, does it?"
Danqing said, "I'm serious. Don't be fooled by my master's gentle appearance. In fact, he is rarely truly happy."
Linlang thought of the Jiang family and nodded with emotion: "Fortunately, my young lady's relatives are all good people."
The Xie family is much better than the Jiang family.
Danqing thought of Xie Jing and couldn't help but ask, "Does your young lady have a good relationship with the brothers and sisters of the Xie family?"
Although he followed his master's orders and sent people to the Xie family in Chenjun to look after Miss Yu, not every move of Miss Yu would be reported back to the capital.
He only knew that Miss Yu lived a good life in the Xie family. Everyone in the Xie family treated her very well, and she rarely went out. She was a lady from a wealthy family in the true sense of the word.
Linlang nodded: "Of course, my young lady is beautiful and kind-hearted. The Xie family has a good family tradition. The masters are also people who respect the elderly and love the young. They cherish and take care of our young lady very much."
Danqing asked, "Whose relationship is better, your young lady or the Xie family?"
"Naturally, I have the best relationship with Madam Xie."
"Apart from the elders, Miss Yu has the best relationship with people of the same age?"
"Thank you, Miss."
"What about Master Xie? I see that Master Xie is also very caring towards Miss Yu and wants to accompany her to the capital."
Linlang glanced at Danqing and snorted softly, "My young lady hasn't traveled far since she came to the Xie family in Chenjun. She's frail and has no one by her side. How could the Xie family dare to let her come to the capital alone?"
Danqing: "How could Miss Yu be alone? Isn't my master here with her? My master went to Chen County specifically for Miss Yu."
Linlang said, "How can the Xie family know whether your master is worthy of my young lady's entrusting her life to a good man?"
"So you should know now, right?"
Linlang turned her head away and did not respond.
In her opinion, Prince Jiang is a good person, but he is too weak and has such troublesome relatives like the Jiang family. Although he treats her young lady very well now, what about the future?
Danqing thought to herself that this was not good. Linlang was Miss Yu's personal maid, and they must have a lot of secrets with each other on a daily basis. If Linlang had a bad impression of her master, it would definitely affect Miss Yu's impression of her master.
As the master's most trusted subordinate, for the sake of his master's lifelong happiness, he must make sure that his master's strengths are displayed more.
So Yu Tanqi told jokes to Jiang Shi in the house to make him happy, while Danqing told Linlang about his master's advantages outside the house, trying to let Linlang know that there is no other good man in the world except Jiang Shi.
When Yu Tanqi stopped talking because his mouth was dry, he heard Danqing's voice.
"Don't look at my master who is now seriously ill and very weak in bed. In fact, my master is still in good health when he is not sick. Did you see my master riding his horse to the gate of the Xie family in Chenjun? You can't tell that he is in poor health at all. Don't you think he is particularly handsome?"
Yu Tanqi almost choked on his tea.
Jiang Shi said gently, "Drink slowly, don't choke yourself."
Yu Tanqi put down the teacup, pressed his wet lips with a handkerchief, looked at Jiang Shi, and said hesitantly: "Did you hear that?" Your guards are "cricketing" you behind your back.
Jiang Shi was somewhat helpless: "I heard that Danqing has a bit of a boisterous personality. If you think he's noisy, I'll get someone else to guard the door."
Yu Tanqi suppressed a laugh: "It's okay, I think he's quite interesting, and he's very loyal to you."
Although Danqing talked more, it was only about Jiang Shi's affairs. If it were someone else, he would have a stern face and not want to say a word.
Jiang Shi said: "I am not in good health. He has been with me since I was a child and is responsible for protecting me."
As if he had thought of something, he said, "He has a sister named Dan Hua, who is quite skilled. I want to put her by your side to protect you. Do you think it's okay?"
Yu Tanqi was slightly stunned, and felt a little surprised. She naturally knew who Dan Hua was. "Zi'an is doing this for my own good, of course."
Dan Hua is the most powerful female master in the book. Because of her female identity, she hides in the dark to protect Jiang Shi.
Dan Hua and Dan Qing are both the offspring of Dan Yue, the captain of the secret guard of the male protagonist's mother Lan Luozhu. They have been responsible for protecting the male protagonist since they were born.
Lan Luozhu is a descendant of the Lan clan, a very mysterious clan. Every member of the clan has an orchid mark on their body. Regardless of gender, they all have extremely charming and beautiful looks, and are good at dancing and martial arts.
The Dan family is responsible for protecting the Lan family's secret guards.
She didn't expect Jiang Shi to be so generous and send Dan Hua to her to protect her.
Yu Tanqi was very touched and thought that her care for him these days was indeed useful. Sincerity was rewarded with sincerity, and she must hold on to the male protagonist tightly.
Jiang Shi looked at the girl's happy eyes and eyebrows, the corners of his lips slightly raised, but there was a hint of worry deep in his eyes.
He left Dali Temple too quickly this time, which would definitely make those people wary.
The Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion is not airtight. If they want to attack him, they may not let Yu Tanqi go.
Jiang Shi suddenly felt a little regretful. He brought her from the Xie family in Chenjun to the Wu'an Marquis Mansion. Perhaps it was not a good and safe place for her.
There are dangers and undercurrents all around him.
But if we let her go back to Chen County...
Jiang Shi frowned slightly when he thought of Chi Li's deep affection and unrepentant look.
