Splendid Twins

It was the first time that Si Yu saw Si Yao being so gentle, and tears welled up in his eyes:

"Sister, I can't bear to leave you..."

Si Yao felt a little reluctant. She didn't have many friends here. The first people she met were Wang Dahu and his siblings. Now that her brother was leaving, she couldn't help feeling sad.

"Meeting and separation are all fate. We met each other and you became my brother. I am very happy. You should be happy too. I will always remember you. If I get bored one day, I will go find you."

"Really? Then let's make a promise, you are not allowed to lie to children."

Si Yu's eyes were as bright as if they had been washed with water. He stretched out his little finger and shook it. Si Yao chuckled:

"Come on, let's make a promise and stick to it for a hundred years."

Si Qing, who was standing next to him, was watching this scene with great interest. He seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly reached out and took out a stack of thick books from the bookcase. When Si Yu saw it, his eyes widened, like a little lion with its fur standing on end, with a face full of resistance:

"Brother, you wouldn't..."

Oh my god, he's about to leave, and they're still giving him homework! !

"These are all things you can use. Go back... don't delay your studies, and be more restrained..."

Si Qing felt that it was inappropriate to say this. This child was not an ordinary person and it was not something he should be able to guide.

Si Yu was familiar with Si Qing's nature and knew that he was doing it for his own good. He was just exaggerating on purpose just now, thinking of easing the atmosphere. He took it and held it in his arms:

"I understand, brother. I will remember what you said."

"it is good."

The driver outside was still Lan Ying. I have to say, her driving skills were excellent. She avoided potholes and drove quite fast.

Si Yao suddenly spoke:

"So they're all going with you?"

Xiao Shitou and Xiao Huzi are okay, Hongying is a skilled girl, but Xiao Ya is more worrying. Can a girl of just four years old keep up with the long journey?

"Only Brother Da Hu and I are leaving. They all stay."

Si Yu glanced at Si Yao, lowered his eyes and spoke softly. It was not that he was unwilling to take them, but they were unwilling to go with him. They said that they were unfamiliar with the place and would hold him back if they went.

"not going?"

Si Yao was slightly stunned. Some time ago, she asked Wang Dahu what arrangements he would make. After not seeing him for a few days, has he made a decision?

"Well... I don't worry about my brothers and sisters, but Xiaoya, she is still young."

Si Yu knew the concerns of these people. It was fine before they didn't know his identity, but now that they knew he was the young prince of Dongyi Country, they became more cautious when getting along with him...

"It's okay. I'll tell your brother Dahu when we get back."

Seeing that he was so young, with wrinkles between his brows, Si Yao reached out and touched him, causing Si Yu's face to turn red.

The carriage did not stop along the way. Si Yao talked for a while and then closed her eyes. Si Yu, who was sitting next to her, could not help but nod his little head. The only sober person in the carriage was Si Qing.

Seeing that the two were having difficulty sleeping, Si Qing put his clothes under Si Yao's head and put Si Yu's head on his legs. He looked at the blue figure driving in front through the curtain blown by the wind.

Such horse-riding skills are rare, even some horse grooms who specialize in horse breeding may not have such skills. The origin of this woman...

Well, with Yaoyao's personality, if you doubt someone, don't use him, don't doubt him, so he should not get involved too much...

When they returned to Sijia Village, Lan Ying pulled the horse to the stop before the carriage entered the village. Si Yao opened his eyes immediately, still dazed, rubbed his eyes and asked:

"arrive?"

Si Qing saw the person standing in front of him at a glance. The nobleman in gorgeous clothes seemed out of place in Sijia Village. He had a handsome appearance and an imposing manner, but... his condition formed a sharp contrast with this luxurious appearance.

Si Yao stretched her head and saw, isn’t this Zhou Yu?

Coming to find her?

His face was indifferent, he straightened his clothes and said:

"You guys go back first, I'll be there in a minute."

"Okay, we'll wait for you at home."

Si Qing didn't show anything on the surface, but his eyes flashed deep. He remembered that his teacher had analyzed the situation in the capital, plus the commotion in the palace in the past two days, the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion...

After the carriage left, Si Yao walked up to Zhou Yu, and upon closer inspection she could see that his eyes were tired and empty, and his whole body was tense like a fully drawn bow.

"How did you come?"

Zhou Yu moved his body, his face heavy, his voice hoarse as if cut by a blade:

"Yaoyao...mother...she..."

Si Yao inherited Zhou Yao's memories. The Zhou Yu in her mind is a young talent, wise and clever, with natural nobility and majesty in his eyes and eyebrows. He is proficient in both civil and military strategies. As he grows older, his aura becomes more steady and restrained.

He is no longer as aggressive as he was in his youth, but has learned to grow his strength in a low-key manner. The Duke of Zhenguo is proud of his son and does not hesitate to use his power to send him to the military camp, on the one hand to avoid the attention of the royal family, and on the other hand, to better train him.

She had never seen Zhou Yu so decadent and confused. She could smell the strong smell of alcohol on him when she got close. She took a step back without making a sound.

"Please... accept my condolences."

Zhou Yu's eyes moved and his gaze focused on Si Yao's face. His throat moved with difficulty, and he wanted to say, "Do you know?"

He was very confused and couldn't speak. He remained silent and motionless.

"What do you find me for?"

Si Yao asked again, was he here to blame her for not saving the Duke's wife?

If he dared to say yes, she...she would find a piece of earth to smash him to death!

Just as Si Yao was looking for the clod of earth, Zhou Yu spoke slowly:

"If you don't want to get married, leave as soon as possible. The farther the better. Go as far away from the North as possible. This is the last thing I can do for you."

"What did you say?"

Si Yao frowned slightly. Where was she going? What happened to make her leave?

Zhou Yu took a deep breath, feeling as if he was ready to die:

"You should know that these days... Prince Xi is the crown prince, the emperor is preparing to choose a crown princess, and the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion is going to send a girl. Father wants to take you back. I know you are not suitable for living in the palace, so Yaoyao, you go."

In fact, he had not been out on official business during this period. He received a secret order from the emperor to disguise himself and leave the city in order to cooperate with the outside forces on the day of the palace coup. The emperor had played a big chess game, intending to eliminate Prince Li and Wei Taifu's Mansion, and the Zhenguogong Mansion was just one of the chess pieces!

But he never expected that when he returned home after a bloody battle, his mother had already...

The investigation revealed an extremely shameful scandal!

He was both angry and sad. It was the first time he disobeyed his father. He knew he could handle the matter better, but his father actually let his mother and his third aunt kill each other. He was so cold-blooded and heartless!

Si Yao was so angry that she laughed. Her eyebrows darkened and she said word by word:

"Whose idea was this?"

Damn it, is this never going to end?

Zhou Yu knew he was in the wrong, so he lowered his eyes and said:

"There is no one in the world who can command the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion... If you have made up your mind, tell me. I would rather disobey the order than let you go."
