After traveling through time, the adults were completely in my hands

"Chuckles..." A string of silver bell-like laughter came from Princess Jing'an's Yuxiu Palace, startling Empress Xiao, who had just reached the palace gate. She pointed inside and said to Nanny Sun beside her in disbelief, "This... is this Princess Jing'an's laughter?"

"Empress, I heard it was true..." Nanny Sun couldn't believe it. In her memory, Princess Jing'an had never laughed out loud or even looked like she was smiling since she was a child.

In the room, Jindou, Princess Jing'an and two palace maids were sitting around the table, playing with the playing cards that Jindou had just made, and having a lot of fun.

Four people were playing a game against each other. Jindou and Princess Jing'an were in a group. The two of them joined forces and killed the two palace maids without leaving a single piece of armor. Their faces were covered with notes.

"Princess, if I lose again, there will be no place on my face to stick the cards on," a palace maid said worriedly while looking at the cards in her hand.

"Hehehe..." This sentence made Princess Jing'an laugh again.

This time, Empress Xiao outside the palace finally confirmed that the laughter was indeed Princess Jing'an's. She never expected that her daughter would laugh so happily one day. For a moment, Empress Xiao was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

"The Queen has arrived!" The eunuch who came with Queen Xiao shouted outside the door.

The people in the room were having a great time when they were startled by the shout. All four of them quickly threw their cards onto the table. Two palace maids frantically tore the paper off their faces, while Jindou and Princess Jing'an also hurriedly adjusted their clothes.

At the door, Empress Xiao walked in with the support of the nanny beside her. Everyone in the hall knelt down and paid their respects to the Empress.

With a wave of her hand, she asked everyone to stand up. Empress Xiao first glanced at Princess Jing'an and found that although Princess Jing'an was still wearing a veil, she looked radiant and much more energetic than before.

She turned her gaze to Jindou, who was standing next to Princess Jing'an, and asked, "Are you Jindou?"

When Jindou heard the Queen's question, she hurried forward and knelt down, and replied, "It is me."

Empress Xiao nodded and looked at Jindou carefully. Having seen too many beautiful women in the palace, Empress Xiao felt that Jindou's appearance could only be described as ordinary. Moreover, judging from her age, she was only about fifteen or sixteen years old. No matter how she looked at it, she did not look like someone with superb medical skills.

But no matter what, it seems that Jing'an is very happy with her, and that's enough.

"Get up quickly," Queen Xiao said to Jindou.

"Yes." Jindou stood up and stood next to Princess Jing'an again. Seeing that Princess Jing'an had not spoken, he secretly kicked Princess Jing'an with his toes.

Princess Jing'an turned her head and looked at Jindou, who quickly winked at her.

It turned out that during the two days of chatting, Jindou was surprised to learn that Princess Jing'an had never left the palace even though she had grown up, and had no idea what the outside of the palace looked like.

Oh, it's so pitiful. It's just like a bird in a cage. What's the difference? The only difference is that the cage is bigger and it has more delicious and useful things.

Jindou looked at Jing'an with sympathy. Although the palace was nice, it was too boring. How could it compare to the mountains and rivers outside, and the hustle and bustle of the market.

Seeing Princess Jing'an's longing look, Jindou thought for a moment and came up with an idea. He asked her to find a chance to ask the Empress Dowager for permission to stay with him at the Duke Dingguo's Mansion for two days. The Empress Dowager would surely agree, and then he could take her out to have a good time in the capital.

At this time, Jindou saw the happy expression on the Queen's face and thought it was a good opportunity, so he quickly winked at Princess Jing'an.

Oh, Princess Jing'an suddenly realized what was happening. She hurriedly took two steps and came to Empress Xiao. She knelt down and said, "Mother, I want to ask you for something."

Empress Xiao was startled and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Mother, I want to leave the palace and stay at Duke Dingguo's mansion with Jindou for a few days."

"This..." Queen Xiao hesitated. The princess leaving the palace was no small matter. However, when she saw Princess Jing'an's eager look, Queen Xiao's heart softened again.

Forget it. I really owe too much to this daughter, and this time she left the palace to go to the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

Speaking of which, the old lady of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion is a cousin of the current Empress Dowager. The Duke Dingguo's Mansion can also be considered a royal family. It is not a bad idea for the princess to go to his mansion to play for two days.

Thinking of this, Empress Xiao nodded and said, "Okay, Mother promises you, but remember to be careful outside."

When Princess Jing'an heard this, she was overjoyed and immediately kowtowed to her mother to express her gratitude.

In the Duke Dingguo Mansion, in the room of the Duke and his wife, Xu said to the Duke, "Master, Mother said that if Jindou doesn't come back today, she will go to the palace tomorrow and bring him back."

Duke Dingguo walked a few steps on the ground with his hands behind his back, saying, "Let's wait and see today. If he doesn't come back, I will report to the emperor tomorrow after court. I will say that my mother misses Jindou and ask him to come back."

Xu nodded and said, "Okay," but she sighed in her heart: Alas, if Jindou doesn't come back, my youngest son will probably get sick from thinking about it.

These past few days, the youngest son has always been in a bad mood. He is completely different from when Jindou was at home. It seems that his youngest son is really moved. But he doesn't know what Jindou is thinking.

Xu was just thinking about this when she saw the housekeeper hurried in and said, "Master, Madam, Miss Jindou is back."

"Oh!" Duke Dingguo and his wife were overjoyed, and hurried out of the house one after another to greet him at the gate of the mansion.

Outside the Duke Dingguo Mansion, Jindou stepped down from the sedan chair. Seeing the Duke Dingguo and his wife, he hurriedly called out, "Father, Mother!"

"Hey, hey," Duke Dingguo and his wife agreed and walked over. Xu looked at Jindou carefully. Fortunately, fortunately, he was not thin at all, and even looked a little fatter.

"Father, Mother, guess who else is in the sedan?" Jindou asked with a smile.

"Is there someone else in the sedan?" Duke Dingguo and his wife looked towards the sedan together in confusion, and saw a slender girl with a veil on her face, bending over and walking out of the sedan, then stepped out of the sedan and came in front of them.

Coming from the palace with her face still covered by a veil, Duke Dingguo and his wife were both startled. Just as they were about to kneel down to pay their respects, Princess Jing'an held them by the hand and said, "Duke, Madam, I have come quietly. Please excuse me from the formalities."

"Yes, yes, Princess, please come in." Duke Dingguo hurriedly extended his hand to let her in.
