"Eh!!!"
Li Huan ran after him, but the man had disappeared.
"Who are you looking for? Our lady?"
Li Huan looked at the boss next to him, "Hey? Your wife?"
"Didn't you come with our lady?"
Li Huan: "The girl holding a child?"
"Yes, are you here to buy something?"
Li Huan looked at him and said, "Yes." Then he went into the shop to look at the merchandise. "May I ask how old Madam is?"
Boss: "You're thirty now."
"I see. Where is her husband?"
"No."
Li Huan was taken aback. "No?"
Where did that child come from? Was he adopted?
The boss suddenly spoke up, "I heard that the lady's husband died a long time ago, when she was only a few days pregnant."
Upon hearing this, Li Huan said, "Is that so? Then Madam must be having a very hard time."
Boss: "Your wife is very capable."
After paying for some items, Li Huan looked at the mansion across the street.
Jin Mansion.
Brocade.
The regent is a man, but what if he is a man dressed as a woman?
However, she acted as if he were a complete stranger. If she were the regent, she would not be able to not recognize him.
So, he must have mistaken someone for someone else, right?
...
"Mommy, do you know that uncle?"
Murong Jin remained expressionless: "I don't know him."
"Oh, he said you look like someone he knew. Does he have a friend who looks a lot like you?"
Murong Jin: "Perhaps."
What do you want to eat tonight?
"hot pot!"
Every time we eat hot pot, I need to prepare some water for my little girl next to me. She can't eat spicy food but she's obsessed with hot pot.
Upon returning to his residence, Murong Jin learned in his study about the events that had transpired with the Prince of Zhenbei over the past two days.
"Establishing a crown prince?"
Yi Liu: "Yes, the young master is now living in the palace."
Murong Jin touched the bracelet on her wrist. "It's alright. Let the child get to know those things in the palace. It will be helpful for him in the future."
Anyway, the throne belongs to her son, and that won't change.
He glanced at the little girl across from him eating a snack.
This girl isn't suited to be an emperor; otherwise, she'd be completely controlled by those people...
"Is my brother going to be the crown prince?"
"That's great, then if I get into trouble in the future, my brother can clean up my mess."
Murong Jin: "..."
"Does the girl want to be the Crown Princess?"
Nan Muyu looked up at her mother: "I don't want to."
“When I heard my brother talk about the time he spent in the palace, I felt depressed. It wasn’t suitable for me.”
"What I pursue is lofty mountains and distant rivers, and freedom."
Murong Jin's lips twitched. "You're only three and a half years old, what do you know!"
With a whoosh, the little girl climbed onto Murong Jin's lap, saying, "Wherever Mother is, that's where I'll be."
Then she rubbed her round little belly and said, "Oh, I think I ate too much, Mom. My tummy is bloated."
Murong Jin picked her up and said, "Let's go for a walk in the yard. The weather will get cold soon. I'll take you to a clothing store to make some clothes tomorrow."
"Okay, I want a pink dress."
Murong Jin: "Okay."
Once it's done, have someone send it to the palace for Yi'er.
...
The Imperial Study.
Nan Fengyi looked at the memorials on the table with a sullen face, then glanced at the man beside him.
"No, why should I be the one to handle these memorials?"
Di Junlan: "To train you."
"I can barely read a few characters, and you expect me to revise memorials? Is there any emperor like you?"
Emperor Junlan replied matter-of-factly, "That's why I'll tutor you from the side."
Nan Fengyi: "..." Destroy him! He's only three years old, why does he have to endure such torment!
I don't read memorials.
"No, you are the future emperor, you must read this. If you can't read, your father will teach you."
Nan Fengyi looked at him with a deep gaze, "Father? How can you say that?"
“You are my son, why can’t I say it? Once you take the imperial seal and become emperor, the entire Great Cheng will be yours.”
Nan Fengyi: "..."
"Tell your father where your mother goes every day."
Nan Fengyi shut up and began to read the memorial seriously.
Emperor Lan: "..."
It's been several days now, and this kid is completely unyielding; we can't get anything out of him.
During the meal, Nan Fengyi ate slowly and silently.
Emperor Junlan ate with a troubled mind.
"I really don't know where Mother is?"
Nan Fengyi: "Mm."
After hearing a noise outside, Di Junlan told him to eat properly and then went out.
Ankersen was about to have someone announce his arrival when he saw his emperor come out.
"Did you find anything?"
An Kesen: "That Lady Jin from Jiangnan has come to the capital."
"The capital? Where are you staying?"
An Kesen: "Jin Mansion, just like when we were in Jiangnan, is still Jin Mansion."
Emperor Junlan looked at Zhao Delin. "Zhao Delin, take good care of the Crown Prince. I'm going to the Jin residence."
Zhao Delin: "Yes."
...
Ankesen stood outside and said, "Please inform them that our young master has something to discuss with your mistress."
The gatekeeper, seeing their splendid attire, knew they were no ordinary people. "Please wait a moment, everyone."
He came out again shortly afterward, saying, "My wife is not in the capital recently."
Ankesen: "Not in the capital? Where did you go?"
"Madam is used to going her own way, and most of us don't know her whereabouts."
