Chapter 1822

At that time, Anxia stood at the bow of the boat.

An autumn breeze blew by, and a few fan-shaped ginkgo leaves fell on her moon-white cloak. "Give orders to rest here for two days before setting off again."

Bei Hui was efficient and reported back in less than an hour, "Madam, I have already booked the best room on the top floor of the Golden Apricot Tower in Shicheng, which is right in front of the thousand-year-old Ginkgo King. The inn has also been arranged, it is the Ginkgo Courtyard in the south of the city, and there is an 800-year-old ginkgo tree in the courtyard."

Shi Anxia nodded, "Okay, let's hold a family recognition banquet in Jinxing Building today."

No extra people were invited to the banquet, but the presence of Shi Chengyi as an elder witness was enough to show that this family reunion banquet was not a joke.

Two newly-appointed little princesses recognized an imperial physician as their adoptive father... This sounds a bit strange.

If Zhuo Qiran didn't have a head full of white hair, some people would suspect that the princess had other feelings for him.

After all, the prince consort had been gone for a year and there had been no news since then. As a princess, no one would dare to say anything if she wanted to recruit another prince consort, or even if she wanted to raise a few concubines.

The whole room was quiet and not very lively.

In the past, wherever Tang Xinghe and Ma Chuyang were, there would be laughter and unusual noise.

At this time, everyone became silent.

The two of them were silent. When asked to eat, they would pick up two chopsticks of food and put them into their mouths. When asked to drink, they would raise their heads and swallow the wine in one gulp.

Zhuo Qiran's master, Mr. Ye Xun, also attended the event rarely.

At the banquet, he did not say a word, but just quietly watched the children being carried up by the wet nurses to go through the ceremony.

Occasionally he would look up and cast his gaze on the gentle woman sitting at the top.

Their eyes met and then separated.

After the ceremony, everyone raised their glasses.

Tang Xinghe drank too much and lay on the table crying, "Today is the day when the commander fell off the cliff. It's been a year, it's time for him to climb back up."

Ma Chuyang also burst into tears, "Sir, I miss you."

Shi Anxue was upset, "Ye Baoer... wuwuwu... cousin-in-law, wuwuwu..."

Hong Que and others also shed tears silently.

A family reunion banquet ended with everyone crying, but a few young children were looking around with their eyes rolling.

The three children's eyes were surprisingly bright, like black gemstones, especially Yi Yi, who was curious about everyone he saw and looked around.

The wet nurse couldn't keep an eye on him, and before he knew it, he somehow crawled to Ye Xun's feet.

Ye Xun picked up Yi Yi and placed her on his lap.

He dipped chopsticks in some wine and licked the children one by one. The frightened wet nurses rushed forward and took the children away.

Yi Yi was reluctant to leave and burst into tears, holding onto Ye Xun's hand tightly.

Shi Anxia acted as if she didn't see anything and told the wet nurse not to let her daughter catch a cold.

The wet nurses took the babies back to the house.

At night, the weather turned cold. Bei Hui put on a black cloak, wrapped herself tightly, and went to deliver silver charcoal to Zhuo Qiran and Mr. Ye Xun.

She first sent him to Zhuo Qiran's room, and then knocked on Ye Xun's door.

There were knocks on the door, three long and two short.

If you don't listen carefully, you won't hear anything unusual.

The door creaked open from the inside.

Under the moonlight, the frosty-haired man stood quietly at the door, his tall figure shattered on the ground by the moonlight.

His cool breath brought with it a hint of long-lasting depression.

Outside the door, the woman also stood for a moment, then bowed to him and said, "It's getting cold. Bei Hui is here to bring silver charcoal to you on Madam's orders."

Ye Xun stepped aside and said, "Thank you, Miss Bei Hui."
