"Let's go into the city!" Shangguan Hongye said calmly, flicked his whip, took the lead in pulling the reins of his horse and galloped towards the city gate.
Looking at the cold back of King Qin, the officials who had eaten a nose of horse hoof dust were all innocent and puzzled.
Why is His Highness still unhappy after returning from a victorious battle?
...
Ming Lanruo rode another road, entered the city from another gate, and headed straight to Concubine Ming's Mansion.
She didn't know why, even though she knew that what Shangguan Hongye said was right, her heart... was still filled with panic.
If it weren't for the past she had with him when she was young, if it weren't for the fact that he had such an unbearable and painful past, he would have been burdened with too much.
He won't have such paranoid emotions and love for her. He will be the same as Shangguan Hongye, right?
Even if you marry her, you will still weigh the benefits and losses, and you will also take concubines...
Ming Lanruo sighed softly and frowned slightly, still affected by what Shangguan Hongye said.
When she saw the alleyway of Concubine Ming's Mansion, she turned over and dismounted, and heard a milky scream——
"Ah ah ah...mother is back!"
Then, she saw a chubby pink 'Fat Peach Spirit' wearing a peach pink shirt rushing directly in front of her.
'Fat Peach Essence' Xiao Xier suddenly hugged her thigh and jumped excitedly: "Mother! Mother, you are finally back!"
Ming Lanruodu was staggered by the impact and was stunned for a moment. Then she suddenly squatted down and stretched out her hands to hold Xiao Xi tightly in her arms: "Well! Mother misses Xiao Xi'er so much!"
The warm body of the little one in her arms suddenly calmed her panicked heart.
Why does she think so much about things that don't happen? Why should she be obsessed with things that haven't happened?
What a fuss!
Now Cang Qiao is the man who loves her deeply and is very paranoid! That's enough!
Ming Lanruo's mood seemed to suddenly brighten, and she kissed Xiao Xi hard on her face, and then...
She looked at the child in her arms with some confusion: "Xiao Xi, you...why are you so fat?! And you haven't grown at all in several months?!"
How long has it been since then? Why has this kid gained so much weight?!
There is a lot more flesh on the body, and the face is round and pink, and the big black eyes are still big and watery, like a peach!
"Mom, you don't even love Xiao Xi, wu wu wu..." Xiao Xi's mouth suddenly collapsed with tears streaming down her face.
His mother actually disliked him for being fat and also disliked him for not growing taller!
Among the children of the same age playing together near the alley, he was the shortest. Everyone thought he was only three or four years old, but he was obviously almost five and a half to six years old!
That aggrieved little look was like a fat kitten that enthusiastically pounced on its owner, only to be kicked by the owner.
Ming Lanruo suddenly felt distressed, and planned to pick up Xiao Xi and coax her like before: "Okay, okay, it's my mother's fault, Xiao Xi, don't cry!"
Who knew that the little thing was too heavy, so she staggered a step and managed to hold the fat baby in her arms.
It's really heavy!
Everyone in Concubine Ming's Mansion who rushed over saw Ming Lanruo struggling to hold Xiao Xi's fat ass, and they couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Come down quickly, little ancestor, Concubine Ming has just come back and is very tired!" Aunt Tan quickly stepped forward to help Xiao Xi.
Ming Lanruo took a look and saw that Nanny Tan, the most powerful person around the Queen Mother, was also there, and she smiled and said: "Nanny Tan, thank you to the Queen Mother and you for helping me take care of Xiao Xi these days!"
Aunt Qin said with some embarrassment: "I have met Concubine Ming. The Empress Dowager always takes Xiao Xi in the palace these days and asks the imperial chef to prepare delicious food. I accidentally eat too much."
Ming Lanruo weighed the baby's chubby butt in her arms, and the heavy feeling made her smile helplessly: "The Queen Mother dotes on him too much."
No need to guess, she already knew why this little fat guy became so "beautiful and plump".
Elderly people love children the most and always think it is a blessing for children to eat.
The Empress Dowager most likely wished she could move all the royal chefs to the palace so that she could "raise" Xiao Xi more conveniently, so that this little guy would become as fat as a peach.
Although Xiao Xi was a little reluctant, she still kissed Ming Lanruo hard on the face twice before muttering: "Mother, let me down. I'm too heavy. Stop twisting your waist."
Everyone couldn't help laughing out loud because of this fat peach's "sensibleness".
Grandma Wang led Chunming, Aunt Wusang and others all stepped forward to salute Minglanruo excitedly: "Miss!"
No matter how the eldest lady's identity changes, they will always call her "eldest lady".
Because only this identity will not change, and it has nothing to do with the royal family.
After not seeing each other for several months, Ming Lanruo couldn't help but blush slightly when she looked at these relatives who were not related by blood but who were related by blood. She happily stepped forward and held everyone's hands tightly and spoke in turn.
