C9 Second brother

Xiao Chengyi, who had just returned from the palace, had not even sat down to drink his tea.

Luo Jin then came over to apologize.

After hearing the reason, he didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. His commander in the Prince's Mansion was actually tricked by someone, and it was even a young lady in her teens who tricked him. It was truly inconceivable.

Luo Jin had not finished speaking when Nangong Lin came over.

Luo Jin had already thrown his away early in the morning, but Nangong Lin could see everything clearly from behind. The young lady was dressed well with his Lightness Exercise, and was good at disguising himself, draping a tattered piece of clothing on his face and making himself look like a beggar.

She had even thought of playing with Luo Jin.

Luo Jin listened to his and almost fainted from anger.

To lose face in front of his master, did he still have the face to stay in the mansion?

After hearing Nangong Lin's words, Xiao Chengyi turned to Luo Jin and asked: "Could it be that the beggar was someone we met yesterday?"

"Your Highness, it is indeed her."

Luo Jin nodded, only then did he realize that he was extremely angry, and he actually did not think that the beggar would go and cause a ruckus at Minister Mansion.

"That's strange, she had disguised herself as a beggar to cause trouble at Minister Mansion and called Zheng Ji father. At night, she had disguised herself as a spy at Minister Mansion;

Xiao Chengyi pursed his lips, he wondered what the lady's motive was.

After pondering for half a day, he raised his head again and asked Nangong Lin with a smile, "Brother of Brotherhood, since you have already followed her, why didn't you bring her back?"

This Brother of Brotherhood must have another problem with his good intentions.

Hearing this, Nangong Lin smiled faintly, "Chengyi, she hasn't done anything to threaten you, why are you holding her back? The reason why I followed her is just to see if the Cold Poison in her body is truly suppressed temporarily, otherwise I wouldn't be at ease."

"However, we met by chance, why is Brother of Brotherhood like this ?"

Xiao Chengyi frowned, a myriad of suspicions in his heart.

Nangong Lin did not give a specific answer, but smiled gently, "I'm a doctor, she was my patient last night."

Three days later, in the forest on the outskirts of the city, Mu Qianyu was leisurely sitting on a tree branch while wearing purple clothes.

After a long while, the clatter of horses' hooves could be heard.

He saw a man in black robes. He had delicate features and a tall and straight figure. He was currently riding a horse over.

The person who came was Mu Qianyu's second brother, Zheng Hong.

When Zheng Hong arrived at the dense forest, he did not see the little sister. He thought that before he arrived, he would be waiting quietly by a big tree.

Suddenly, he felt as if his head had been smashed. Instinctively, he reached out to grab the object that fell to the ground. Opening his palm, he realized that it was actually an orange peel.

"Hehehehe."

Linglong's jade-like smile sounded from the top of her head.

Zheng Hong raised his head in shock, only to see a beautiful lady, leisurely sitting down and eating.

He was stunned, he had never seen such a devastatingly beautiful woman before.

"Second Brother, are you stupid?"

Mu Qianyu hugged the thing in her chest tightly, and gently leaped down the tree, steadily landing on the ground.

"You, you are Drifting Feather?"

Zheng Hong looked at her in shock and kept on retreating.

Is this his sister?

If it wasn't for her calling him "second brother", he probably wouldn't even be able to come back to his senses.

"Otherwise, who do you think I am?"

Mu Qianyu took out a bunch of grapes from the food in her arms and gave them to Zheng Hong. She slanted her eyes and said mischievously: "Second Brother, can I treat you to something to eat?"

In her memory, when she wasn't full, only this second brother would give her something to eat.

At that time, even if it was just a nest, she still felt that it was very sweet.

Zheng Hong was startled, and scratched his head in embarrassment.

Just a moment ago, he was staring at his own sister, wondering where this beautiful woman had come from. Now that he thought about it, he felt extremely awkward.

However, when he saw the innocent and mischievous smile on Mu Qianyu's face, he finally admitted that she was only a fourteen year old girl.

It wasn't good to reject her sincerity, so Zheng Hong reached out to receive the grape and tasted it.

But...

He sighed lightly, turned around and took out a soft fur cloak from the horse's bag, and carefully put it on Mu Qianyu.

As he helped her to tie the straps of her cloak, he said, "It's such a cold day. You're wearing such thin clothes, aren't you afraid of catching cold? Also, how are you able to eat fruits outside in such a cold weather? It's bad for your stomach. Why don't you take care of yourself?"

He had never thought that his sister would ever come back.

When he heard that his younger sister had been lost, he didn't believe it. He had always believed that his younger sister had been viciously murdered.

He had suffered heartache for ten years, so naturally, he would be happy to see someone else again.

"Second Brother, you still love me as much as before."

Mu Qianyu's mouth curved into a smile, and her expression became even more gentle.

The only warmth in his memories of his two lifetimes was probably nothing more than this.

"Silly girl, if your brother doesn't love you then who will. This wind is strong, let's go to the teahouse in front and talk."

Zheng Hong knew that after passing by this forest, there would be a teahouse for resting, so he brought his sister there.

"This is all for me?"

Arriving at the tea house, Zheng Hong took two bags from the Horse Back.

Inside the bag were everything prepared for Mu Qianyu. There were cotton clothes, medicinal herbs, food, almost anything that could be prepared.
