Luo Qi, the eldest grandson, pretended to be stunned for a moment and quickly stood up. "Oh, it's dark out here. I think I'm a eunuch in the prince's brother's house."
Quickly retreating, the eldest grandson Luo Qi looked at the prince innocently. "Brother prince, what should I do? The fifth prince won't blame me, right?"
The prince wants to protect his eldest grandson Luo Qi. "No."
Quickly appeasing him, the prince frowned and looked at the fifth prince. "It's all your fault for waking up Luo Qi."
The fifth prince was frustrated and did not dare to say more.
On the side, Xiao Yanjin kept laughing and stood quietly.
This daughter-in-law of the eldest grandson's family seems very interesting.
It was different from the women from aristocratic families he had seen.
Most of the women from the aristocratic family are quiet and quiet, and like to recite poems, compose poems, and do embroidery. However, the eldest grandson, Luo Qi, seems... to like riding and shooting more.
"Brother, the prince is so powerful. Did you kill this wolf?" Luo Qi, the eldest grandson, was very worried. He knew that the more he praised the prince at this time, the more the prince would get carried away and forget to trouble Xiao Yanjin.
"Well, yes, my brother brought it for you." The prince was a little embarrassed.
"Brother Prince is so awesome." Luo Qi, the eldest grandson, smiled and gave a thumbs up.
The prince was instantly elevated and was very proud. For a moment, he forgot about the trouble he wanted to cause Xiao Yanjin. He proudly asked people to carry the body of the wild wolf to the emperor to collect the reward.
The emperor was naturally very happy and rewarded the prince with many things.
…
The spring hunting bonfire banquet officially began, and all the princes, ministers, princes, etc. went to the prince to flatter him.
Only Shen Qingzhou and Mu Jingyan sat quietly behind Xiao Yanjin.
"Aren't you going to join in the fun?" Xiao Yanjin asked with a smile.
"Go and flatter them all, I don't even bother to join them." Mu Jingyan said lazily.
"Take care of yourself." Shen Qingzhou said thoughtfully, looking at the smile in Xiao Yanjin's eyes, he smiled and said, "The prince seems to be in a good mood today. The prince didn't give you any trouble?"
Shen Qingzhou guessed that the prince might cause trouble for Xiao Yanjin.
"I found it, but someone protected me." Xiao Yanjin raised his eyebrows, seeming quite proud.
Shen Qingzhou raised his eyebrows. "Oh? Is there anyone who dares to protect you from offending the prince?"
"Who, which warrior?" Mu Jingyan was also very gossipy.
"Eldest grandson Luo Qi." Xiao Yanjin smiled.
Shen Qingzhou was stunned for a moment and shook his head. "If the prince doesn't want to take advantage of his eldest grandson Luo Qi, then don't provoke her, let alone..."
Have any ties.
Otherwise... the future with the eldest grandson's family is destined to end tragically.
"I understand." Xiao Yanjin nodded.
He knew everything, and knew that if he became the emperor, sooner or later he would have to attack the Sun family.
Therefore, he wanted to stay away from his eldest grandson Luo Qi and not involve her.
What he can do is to protect her once he ascends the throne and controls the Sun family...
…
"Aren't you sad?" Luo Qi, the eldest grandson, took the initiative to provoke Xiao Yanjin when no one was around.
Xiao Yanjin wanted to be indifferent to her, but looking at those innocent eyes...actually, he couldn't bear to be cold. "Why should you be sad?"
"You killed the wolf, and these honors should belong to you." Luo Qi, the eldest grandson, felt unworthy for Xiao Yanjin.
"If you want to be honored, you must bear its responsibilities." Xiao Yanjin shook his head.
This honor is an honor for the prince, but it is a fatal disaster for anyone other than the prince.
The eldest grandson, Luo Qi, sighed and looked sideways at Xiao Yanjin. "You...were you suffering in the past?"
Xiao Yanjin was stunned for a moment, his body a little stiff.
No one has ever asked him so bluntly whether he had a hard time in the past.
In fact, life is not easy now.
But compared to the life in the palace when I was a child, it seems to be much better.
Seeing that Xiao Yanjin was silent, the eldest grandson Luo Qi reached out and placed a piece of candied fruit in front of Xiao Yanjin. "If you feel bitter, just eat a piece of candied fruit."
Xiao Yanjin looked numbly at the piece of candied fruit guarded in his fair palm, picked it up by mistake and put it in his mouth.
Very sweet.
"There used to be someone who would give me candies and preserves when I was in pain, but I forgot who he was." Luo Qi, the eldest grandson, was a little distressed.
"If you forget, just forget it. Don't dwell on the past." Xiao Yanjin whispered. "When I was a child, there was no coal in the palace where I lived in winter, and the weather was freezing. I thought I would freeze to death that winter, but grandma said,
In summer I forget about the coldness of winter.”
Xiao Yanjin rarely opens his heart to others.
He wanted to tell his eldest grandson Luo Qi, and also to tell himself that people must always look forward, there is no winter that cannot be overcome.
Winter is coming and spring is very near.
"Xiao Yanjin, have you ever said... that you are very good-looking?" Luo Qi, the eldest grandson, smiled at Xiao Yanjin.
She vaguely remembered that she had praised someone for being good-looking, who was it...
Xiao Yanjin was stunned for a moment and waited, looking at it, does it look good?
This is the first time I heard a good word used to describe him from a woman.
Inexplicably, I was so angry that I wanted to laugh. "Isn't beautiful a way to describe a woman?"
"Who said that? You are just good-looking." Luo Qi, the eldest grandson, drank wine and lay on the table, looking at Xiao Yanjin. "You look familiar. Have we met before?"
Xiao Yanjin was stunned for a moment. It seemed that his eldest grandson Luo Qi had forgotten what he had met at the border.
"It was the first time we met on the spring hunting ground. My name is Xiao Yanjin, and you are."
The eldest grandson Luo Qi smiled and pointed to himself. "My name is eldest grandson Luo Qi. I live on the banks of the Luoshui River, in the Luo River where the Luo Shen flowers are blooming, and where the phoenix and phoenix trees live. There is no place where the phoenix trees do not live."
Xiao Yanjin looked at his eldest grandson Luo Qi quietly.
Luo Qi, a very nice name.
It's a pity that they are destined to have no fate and cannot be together.
The mind of a young man is always pure.
The two of them sat in the grass and looked up at the stars in the sky.
Mu Jingyan drank wine and quarreled with Shen Qingzhou.
But he couldn't win against Shen Qingzhou every time.
"Shen Qingzhou, your adoptive father asked you to marry the daughter of the Shang Shu family. Why did you refuse? I heard that you are both talented and beautiful?"
Shen Qingzhou glanced at Mu Jingyan. "I don't like it."
"I'm really curious about what kind of woman can attract your attention. You are so picky, you can't marry a fairy daughter from the sky, right?" Mu Jingyan drunkenly leaned on Shen Qingzhou's back, the two of them back to back.
"Shen Qingzhou, let me tell you, you have good taste. If you look for a wife in the future, tell me and I will compare it with yours. I will definitely find a good-looking one."
Shen Qingzhou was amused by Mu Jingyan. "Ordinary women can't catch my eye, but you...should find an ordinary woman and live an ordinary life."
"Why do I think you are hurting me by saying this?" Mu Jingyan frowned.
Shen Qingzhou smiled. "It's for your own good to let you live an ordinary life."
He did not hope that Mu Jingyan would achieve any great achievements. He only hoped that he would always be carefree and incapable of great achievements, but would be peaceful and happy.
"What will our future look like? Have a family and a career, with children and grandchildren?" Mu Jingyan asked Shen Qingzhou while looking at the starry sky. "However, this is not my ambition. Before we can have a family and a career, we must first achieve great achievements."
"Yes, there will be a day. Forget about great achievements, you just need to be safe." Shen Qingzhou gave Mu Jingyan an elbow. "Drinking is harmful to the body, so take a drink to make yourself happy."
If he really drinks too much and causes trouble, Mu Jingyan and his stubborn brother will blame him.
