After I traveled through the book, my sister kidnapped my mother

Wen Zhimiao handed the umbrella to Duan Jiling, and the two walked slowly on the street.

It was already late at night, but there were still many people on the streets of the ghost market.

Wen Zhimiao asked Duan Jiling: "Can we leave now?"

"Miaomiao wants to go back?" Duan Jiling asked.

"Well, I have to go back and take a look. If I don't go back, Master Wanyue will go home and tell my mother about it, and I will be beaten again." Wen Zhimiao was trying very hard to implement his character.

Duan Jiling suddenly asked curiously: "Miaomiao, do you really want to buy those slaves today?"

Wen Zhimiao looked at her puzzledly: "Of course I really want to buy it, otherwise why would I spend money?"

Duan Jiling looked at her and lowered his eyes slightly: "Is Miaomiao the same as them?"

"Don't you think those slaves are miserable?"

Wen Zhimiao laughed: "At least if I bought it back, I would just ask them to dance for me. If someone else bought it back, I don't know what would happen."

"As for pity, there are so many pitiful people in this world. Do I have to save them one by one?" Wen Zhimiao said lazily.

"I'm not that great. My mother said that we should do everything within our ability." Wen Zhimiao curled his lips at Duan Jiling.

"She said that if the superiors are unkind, the inferiors are doomed to suffer."

"Without a wise ruler there will be no famous ministers. Without famous ministers the world will be in chaos. Keeping the world stable is the job of those in power. What does it have to do with me?" Wen Zhimiao bought two strings of candied haws and generously gave a piece of silver to the girl selling the candied haws.

"Lingling, if you were given the opportunity to become the master of the world, what would you do?" Wen Zhimiao asked Duan Jiling with curiosity.

When Duan Jiling heard her question, a look of confusion appeared on his face.

She had never actually thought about it.

But the people in the Presbyterian Church all said that she must become the future queen of the South Kingdom and unify the entire South Kingdom.

What will she do after the reunification?

Wen Zhimiao looked at her like that and couldn't help but laugh: "You and I are both mortals, there's no need to think so much."

"Has Miaomiao ever thought about it?" Duan Jiling asked.

Wen Zhimiao half-jokingly said, "Send troops to the Northern Rong. The northern grasslands are vast. It would be so much fun if we could take them down."

Duan Jiling couldn't help but laugh: "It won't be easy to take down Beirong."

"Think about it, it's not against the law." Wen Zhimiao spread his hands.

"Too."

"Since Miaomiao wants to go back, I'll ask someone to find a boat." Duan Jiling said with a smile.

"it is good."

"By the way, where are you staying? An inn?" Wen Zhimiao asked casually.

"No, my family has a house in Nanshao City." Duan Jiling answered her truthfully.

Wen Zhimiao nodded slightly: "I see."

Duan Jiling's people went to prepare the boat, and the two continued to wander around the market. Wen Zhimiao bought a lot of small things for his friends.

By the time the boat was ready, the two had almost finished their shopping.

While sitting on the boat, Duan Jiling ate candied haws while looking at the sky. The starry sky tonight was beautiful, full of stars.

"Miao Miao, thank you." Duan Jiling suddenly said to Wen Zhimiao.

"Huh?" Wen Zhimiao, who was lying lazily, looked puzzled. Why was he thanking her suddenly for no reason?

"You are the first person to accompany me shopping." Duan Jiling said with a smile.

Wen Zhimiao turned his head to look at her. Duan Jiling was very beautiful, very cute, and always lively on weekdays.

But when Wen Zhimiao looked at her at this moment, he always felt that she was lonely.

Like Luo Jinshu, she has a free soul, but seems to be trapped in the Duan family because of her identity.

"It's nothing. There will be many people who will accompany you shopping and play with you in the future. Friends can only form long-term relationships if they take the initiative. If you really don't have any friends, you can come and play with us anytime. Linglang, Shushu, and Tongtong are all very nice." Wen Zhimiao said with a smile.

"Isn't Master Wanyue good?" Duan Jiling suddenly asked her with a smile.

Wen Zhimiao pouted: "To be honest, it's not that she's bad, but she's always controlling me. I just don't understand the things at home. My mother asked her to help me, so why didn't she help me? She insisted that I learn, and I just can't learn. It's so annoying."

"Little old fashioned."

Duan Jiling laughed: "But I think Miaomiao doesn't hate her."

Wen Zhimiao was stunned. Was her acting exposed?

There was no one else on the boat at the moment, only Wen Zhimiao and Duan Jiling's personal guards.

They were all more than ten steps away.

"My aunt told me that Miaomiao is very powerful and smart." Duan Jiling suddenly said to Wen Zhimiao.

Wen Zhimiao paused: "You..."

"Duan Yunting is my aunt. Miaomiao, can you tell me, is she still alive? There was no news of her before I left home, and the Elders' Council has ordered that my aunt must not leave Yunjing alive." Duan Jiling asked again after eating a candied haws.

Wen Zhimiao sat up: "Are you Teacher Duan's niece?"

Duan Jiling nodded: "He is also the current head of the Duan family."

She smiled at Wen Zhimiao: "Miaomiao doesn't seem to know yet?"

"I don't know." Wen Zhimiao shook his head.

"I thought that with your Highness's capabilities, you should have found out by now." Duan Jiling did not keep Wen Zhimiao in suspense any longer.

Wen Zhimiao laughed dumbly: "Why did I continue to act for so long?"

Duan Jiling bit off the last candied haws and raised her lips: "It wasn't a waste of acting. At least Su Jincheng and Sister Ke believed it. I didn't believe it because my aunt told me a lot about you."

"Then why don't you just tell the people in your elders' council that I was acting?" Wen Zhimiao asked in confusion.

"Will it be useful to tell them? Firstly, they may not believe it. Secondly, even if they do believe it, doesn't Miaomiao have any way to deal with it?"

Duan Jiling just didn't believe that Wen Zhimiao didn't have any other plan.

Wen Zhimiao laughed: "Did Teacher Duan praise me so highly?"

"My aunt said that you are very powerful and a wise leader. She has long wanted to use your power to help the Duan family leave the Southern Kingdom. She said that the current Duan family has trapped itself in its empty ambitions, and the children of the family will have to make those fearless sacrifices for generations."

Wen Zhimiao restrained his smile and said, "When our people went there, Teacher Duan was already seriously injured and dying."

Duan Jiling's nose suddenly felt sore when she heard this: "So, aunt has already..."

"Don't be anxious, wait for me to finish. The people from the Imperial Hospital rescued her, and now she is recuperating in the palace." Wen Zhimiao said to Duan Jiling.

However, Duan Jiling was not told that Duan Yunting was not only recuperating in the public palace, but also in Zhangtai Palace, in Yun Zhou's room, pretending to be the seriously injured Yun Yushi.

When Yunzhou went to Jiangnan, he originally needed to find a substitute to pretend to be her. It happened that Duan Yunting's injuries were already serious and she was indeed dying, so it was safest to hide her in the palace.

With Wen Jiuzhao taking care of her, nothing will happen.

Duan Jiling heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.
