Sister, you traveled through time too?

【Border, Grassland】

The wild wind carries the unique sharpness of the autumn grassland.

The grassland in autumn is not as green as that in summer, but its colors are richer. It is a vast expanse of golden color, simple and desolate.

Xia Jie, who was dressed in military uniform, took off his armor and rested in the tent.

He was tall and sturdy, with a slightly weathered face.

The wind on the grassland is still as free as ever. It breaks free from the obstruction of the mountains and breaks through all the rules and regulations, blowing freely.

It's vast here.

Xia Jie's eyes were somewhat empty, and he hurriedly came back to his senses.

He cannot relax for even a moment.

For a general, even a moment of slacking off can be fatal.

In the tent, the fat Heizi was lying comfortably on the carpet, fighting a life-and-death battle with beef jerky.

Suddenly someone came from outside the tent asking to see him, and Xia Jie quickly let him in.

"What's the matter?" Xia Jie asked with a very cold look in his eyes, just sitting upright.

The man bowed and saluted, saying, "General, there is a message from the secret sentry in the imperial city."

The man handed the letter to Xia Jie and hurriedly left.

Xia Jie opened the letter swiftly and after reading it, his brows unconsciously furrowed and his eyes became as dark as the night.

This was the secret sentry he arranged to protect His Highness before he left.

I don't know if the secret sentry got it wrong, but he brought the latest news about His Highness.

He read every word, unwilling to skip any, for fear of missing out on what had happened to His Highness recently.

When Xia Jie read that the prince spent a huge sum of money to welcome a courtesan into his house, his eyebrows twitched unconsciously.

This is indeed like your Highness' style.

He finished reading the letter, then crumpled it up randomly, crumpled it up again, and then carefully unfolded it.

In the end, he read it several more times before reluctantly burning the letter.

His Highness was living a good life and had many people around him. He didn't understand what he was worried about or what he cared about.

He just remained silent again, changed his clothes, left the tent, and kept himself busy.

I don't know what I'm running away from.

Now that we have just arrived at the grassland, the negotiations with the twelve tribes are about to break down and they will soon come to blows.

He could no longer be distracted.

He just kept thinking of her for no reason.

Thinking of her bright and affectionate eyes.

【Princess Mansion】

At this time, Xiaoyu had no idea that someone in the distance was worried about her.

She had just left Jiang Hao and told Jiang Hao to take good care of his injuries.

Just as I returned to my room, I heard Cuizhi say that Eunuch Jiang had come.

Jiang Dehai brought a memorial and said it was sent by her brother.

After Xiaoyu took it, he rewarded Jiang Dehai with a few gold ingots and sent him away.

Only then did she sit down on the couch slowly and read the memorials.

"Your Highness, please try this green grape. It's so sweet." Cuizhi smiled and fed the washed grapes to Xiaoyu's mouth.

The little fish bites the grapes, and the sweet juice bursts out, making people feel happy.

The memorial was filled with descriptions of Yangzhou's customs and culture, its prosperous scenery, and its delicious food and fruits.

This is not a memorial at all, it's a travel guide.

She smiled knowingly. Tang Zhao was a thoughtful boy who always thought of her in everything.

"Your Highness, what does this say?" Cuizhi asked curiously.

"What's fun about a place with Yangzhou written all over it?" Xiaoyu said with a smile.

"Yangzhou! It's so far away, but I heard it's very beautiful there." Xiao Cuizhi smiled and said with some excitement in her eyes.

Your Highness, are you going to take them to Yangzhou for a trip?

Xiaoyu patted Cuizhi's head gently and said, "Wait until next year."

"Fireworks are displayed in Yangzhou in March. Let's go to Yangzhou next spring to see them."

She had a soft smile and it was indeed nice to be out and about.

There was no opportunity before, but there is now.

Do something you haven't done before, see something you haven't seen before.

It's worth coming here.

Cuizhi nodded excitedly, bubbles popping from her lips with joy. After the Chinese New Year, she could go out and play.

She was so excited that she had already started thinking about what kind of skirt to wear for His Highness.

Xiaoyu ate grapes and looked up at Xiao Cuizhi, with tenderness in his eyes.

Such a leisurely, beautiful and trivial life makes her feel fulfilled and satisfied.

"Your Highness, I really want to learn how to paint~"

Cuizhi sat on Xiaoyu's lap and suddenly said.

She held her chin with her hand, her eyes sparkling with the clarity that one should have at this age.

Xiaoyu was a little surprised, but her eyes were still full of tenderness.

She just smiled and asked, "Why does my little Cuizhi suddenly want to learn to paint?"

Cuizhi smiled shyly, with the youthfulness unique to a young girl on her face.

"Because the way His Highness drew his sword last time was so handsome!"

"I really want to draw it, hehehe."

"Your Highness said that he will go to Yangzhou next year. Yangzhou has pleasant scenery. Your Highness will wear a beautiful dress when he goes there. The beautiful scenery and your beauty will definitely be dazzling."

"This servant wants to draw your Highness."

She smiled, her eyes bright and full of shyness.

Xiaoyu just touched her head gently, there was a moment of surprise in his eyes, and then he smiled gently and lovingly after a moment.

Cuizhi was truly loyal to her, and always admired and protected her.

Such a lovely Cuizhi, even if it is the stars in the sky, what can't be picked?

Cuizhi, as the person most loyal to Xiaoyu, is naturally different from others.

"I see, Cuizhi is so nice."

Xiaoyu smiled and hugged Cuizhi happily.

Cuizhi was stunned, hehehe, his highness was hugging her, hehehe, hehehe.

She smiled foolishly, her eyes full of joy.

"Then I will ask the best teacher to teach you how to paint."

"My little Cuizhi is the best. She will definitely learn it."

"It doesn't matter if you can't learn it. I can arrange for a painter to paint our portrait at any time."

"As long as you want to learn, I will arrange it for you. Don't feel stressed if you can't learn it. Just be happy."

Xiaoyu said with a smile.

Cuizhi nodded happily and said, "Your Highness, I will definitely study hard!"

She smiled sweetly and ran to share with her good sister Cuiling.

Xiaoyu just smiled and looked at Cuizhi's back with gentle eyes.

The room became quiet again, and a hint of worry and coldness flashed in Xiaoyu's eyes again.

Cuizhi is a simple-minded girl, so my preferential treatment towards her will inevitably cause jealousy.

There are so many people in the mansion, don't let Xiao Cuizhi get bullied by anyone.

Xiaoyu called the secret guards and asked them to keep an eye on the mansion to see if there were any servants with impure intentions.

"If you catch them, just sell them directly. No need to report back."

"Don't let anyone bully my concubine Cuizhi. If anyone dares to bully her, I will beat them up and then sell them off."

Xiaoyu gave the order, and then he felt relieved.

Alas, there is so much to worry about all day long.

She rubbed her forehead, thinking that she seemed to have forgotten something.

But after thinking about it for a long time, I forgot what it was.

She frowned, wondering what else was left to do?

She stuffed grapes into her mouth, the sweetness filled the air and her mind became much clearer.

It seems she forgot to settle accounts with someone.

Xiaoyu's mouth corners curled up in a beautiful arc, and a dangerous gleam flashed in her eyes.

"A river, almost forgot about you."
