C14 He Wanted to Meet His Family in the Imperial Residence(part Ii)

"Elder sister, I will return these five thousand taels of silver to you. I only have one thousand silver taels with me right now. I will definitely return the rest to you when I return to City L! " Jiegeng held Shihan's hand and solemnly promised.

"Silly sister, I do not lack this bit of silver. Why are you so serious about it? Furthermore, between sisters, there is no need to say whether you owe or not." Shihan flicked Jiegeng's forehead. She treated Jiegeng. She always had a feeling that she naturally wanted to get close to ___.

"It's getting late. I'm going to find an inn to settle down. When I find the inn, I'll immediately tell my sister the address. Elder sister, you should go back as soon as possible. " Jiegeng raised her head and looked at the sky.

"What inn are you looking for? Of course it is to stay at my place. I have plenty of courtyards there, you can choose any one you want. " Shihan pulled Jiegeng towards her own Imperial Residence.

"That's right. You are Zhen'an King's cousin. This means that elder sister is the group leader!" Jiegeng was overwhelmed by what happened that day and only now did she remember Shihan's identity.

"Don't call me group leader. You still call me elder sister like before." Shihan winked at Jiegeng. "When we arrive at the Imperial Residence, you don't need to be anxious about anything else. The only thing you need to do is to be careful of my mother." Shihan sighed. "She is really the most troublesome woman I have ever seen."

"Group leader, you can't talk about the princess like that." Yue had always quietly followed behind the two of them, and from time to time, she would correct Duan Shihan's words and actions.

"Yes, Yue is my mother's person. Look at Yue's appearance, you should know how annoying my mother is." Shihan did not mind and held her tongue.

Jiegeng smiled and looked at Shihan enviously.

If her mother had not passed away, would she also be this nervous about me? Jiegeng was secretly looking forward to it in her heart.

"When I just returned to the city today, didn't I leave in a hurry? It was also because my mother was causing trouble at home that my father could not handle it. So I sent footboy to guard the city gate so that I could return to the city. I'll immediately go back and brush my mother's fur. " Shihan shook her head helplessly.

"Then the Royal Highness is really very considerate towards the Princess!" Seeing that the powerful and powerful person in City L did not have a wife to curry favor with her husband, everything was with the husband as the heavens. Jiegeng could not help but sigh.

"My father is known for being afraid of the king. My father is known for being afraid of the king." Shihan mercilessly exposed him. "However, there are many things that he is afraid of. I do not have those messy brothers and sisters."

After saying that, he arrived at the entrance of King Yi's Mansion.

"King Yi?" Jiegeng stared at the plaque on the door. "Being able to live in peace and leisure while living in the royal family is the most ideal, right?"

Shihan tilted her head and looked at this little girl who was half a head shorter than her. Not only did she praise, to be able to have such thoughts at such a young age and not lose the innocence that one should have at this age. As expected, the capital was a big dyeing tank, a person who grew up in this kind of environment. If her body was not dyed in all kinds of colors, then she should be glad. How could he find a pure and flawless body?

"Elder sister, what's wrong?" Jiegeng turned her head and saw Shihan looking at her with a thoughtful look.

Shihan shook her head, "Nothing much. Let's go in."

"Jiegeng, you will stay in this courtyard." Shihan pushed open the door of the courtyard and brought Jiegeng in. "My courtyard, Hanhui Courtyard, is next door. If you need anything, you can come and find me immediately."

Jiegeng had been living at the border for a long time. Although her family was considered a wealthy family in Lin City, how could it compare to the Imperial Residence in the capital? Thus, the decoration of the courtyard really shocked Jiegeng.

Along the way, not only were the buildings exquisite, but the meticulous mind was also reflected in the flowers and the trees. Every inch was so appropriate.

Realizing that she had lost her composure, Jiegeng felt rather embarrassed. "Elder sister, I've let you see a joke. I was very rude just now, right?"

" What's so special about that? The little girl saw what she liked, Wang Yao said. Look at it more openly, that's called showing true feelings. Hiding it and revealing that kind of envious look in her eyes, that's what I call rude. " The one that gave Shihan a favorable impression in the beginning was precisely Jiegeng's true attitude.

" Since you are curious, I will bring you to the small garden of the Imperial Residence later to take a look. That place was personally taken care of by my mother and the scenery is even better."

"En!" Jiegeng replied happily. Because she liked herbal medicine, she was also interested in flowers and plants.

After Jiegeng rested for a while, Shihan impatiently brought Jiegeng to her mother's little garden.

"There is a place in the little garden that mother specially invited someone to take care of. But you must not go in there!" Before going to the small garden, Shihan had already told Jiegeng that it was taboo, in order to prevent Jiegeng from making her mother unhappy.

Jiegeng originally heard that there was still a medicinal garden and was extremely excited. But once she was told that she could not enter, she immediately deflated.

"The Princess is still managing the medicinal garden. Does she also know medicine?" Jiegeng could not help but have doubts.

"She definitely won't." Shihan was also curious. But every time her mother came back from the medicine garden, her mood would be very heavy, and she never asked.

"Eh, mother happened to be there too. Let's go!" Shihan immediately pulled Jiegeng and sped up her footsteps. She had long wanted her mother to know Jiegeng too.

"Mother! I brought the younger sister that I told you about this morning!" Shihan brought Jiegeng to Rani Yi.

Although Rani Yi was over thirty years old, she still maintained her appearance very well. Perhaps it was because of her age and status, although Rani Yi's actions were as gentle and straightforward as Shihan described, she was not rash.

"Jiegeng greets Rani Yi." Although Shihan acknowledged Jiegeng as her younger sister, this was after all the private friendship between the two younger daughters. Facing the elders and people of different statuses, they had to be polite and abide by the rules.

After greeting, Jiegeng discovered that Rani Yi had been staring at her face and her body was actually trembling slightly.

"Mother?" Shihan had never seen her mother lose her composure in front of other people.

"Tell me, your name is Jiegeng?" Rani Yi did not pay attention to Shihan but asked Jiegeng.

"Yes." Jiegeng did not understand and could only follow the answer.

"Are you surnamed Bai? Fifteen years old this year?" Rani Yi continued to ask and her expression became more and more agitated.

"How did the Princess know?" Jiegeng remembered that she had never told Shihan her surname.

"Mother, how did you know?" Shihan could not help but ask. She had always been very stubborn. Having known her younger sister for so long, it seemed like she really did not know her surname.

Rani Yi did not answer their question but continued to ask. "What is the name of your parents? Where are they?"

Jiegeng tilted her head and looked at Shihan. Shihan also shook her head and used her eyes to signal her to answer truthfully.

"My father is Bai Xuan and my mother is Lin Qingya. They all died from the plague in the capital eight years ago." Jiegeng recalled her parents. Her feelings of respect and grief were interwoven.

"It's really you! It's really you!" Rani Yi actually choked.

"Child, I am your aunt!" Rani Yi suddenly hugged Jiegeng and tears rolled down her face.
