After the princess was reborn, she kissed the ruthless kidnapper

Shen Changle had just accompanied Hui'er on the rockery to enjoy the cool breeze for a while when she sneezed despite her weak body.

Seeing this, Hui'er raised his head and smiled obediently:

"Mother, let's go back. It's so cold up here."

"Is it cold back then? Then let's go back..."

"Ah."

Shen Changle was helped down the rockery by Bai Zhi and others, and then turned around and carried Hui'er down.

"Do you want to go back to the main hall with Mother?"

She asked, and Hui'er shook his head obediently.

"No, mother, I have an appointment with the tutor, and I need to go to him to review my studies."

"Then the Queen Mother will take you there."

"it is good……"

Hui'er smiled warmly, and Shen Changle didn't think much about it.

After sending him to the Grand Tutor, he came back to talk to Shen Changning.

The brother and sister hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they kept chatting until the lights came on, without feeling tired.

Zhi'er was taken away by the nanny to take a nap at noon.

He slept soundly all afternoon. After waking up and having dinner, he wanted to walk around the palace to see the differences between Anguo and Qi.

After walking around for half an hour, he found that the Anguo Palace was so big!

It’s been half a day, and I haven’t even finished visiting the Imperial Garden.

"Your Highness, it's getting late. We should go back. Otherwise, His Majesty will be worried when he returns and can't find Your Highness..."

The nanny behind him kept nagging him, and Zhi'er felt a little unhappy.

He has always been a free-spirited person.

Her best skill was playing hide-and-seek, and she had successfully evaded the nanny and waiters countless times.

This time is no exception.

He took advantage of the dim lights in the imperial garden and quickly disappeared from the nanny's sight.

Even though the nurse and the guards searched for him again and again, he would hide under the rockery and eat the milk cakes as if nothing had happened...

All of this was visible to Xiao Jianghui who was sitting on the rockery.

He sat on the top of the rockery with his knees leaning against it, tilting his head to look at the nonchalant Shen Zhi. It would be a lie to say he wasn't envious.

I knew it the first time I saw him...

How relaxed, carefree, and happy he is.

It seems that the Qi Palace has never been a cage for him!

His uncle was also very good to him.

He will not be given heavy studies, nor will he be forced to meet with civil and military officials;

Nor would he be like his grandfather, who kept talking about the country and the unification of the four kingdoms in his ears all day long...

Looking at the relaxed Shen Zhi, Jiang Hui couldn't help but imagine:

If the child taken away by my uncle was me instead of my younger brother, would the situation be different today?

Can he be so optimistic and cheerful?

The Queen Mother and the Emperor...

Will it give him more attention?

Imagine that my father and mother looked at me with the same fond and admiring eyes they looked at Shen Zhi...

Xiao Jianghui couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.

I really hope...

I really hope that I can be loved like my parents.

Can……

After all, all this was just his fantasy.

Time cannot go back, and he cannot pretend to be lively and cheerful.

With the corners of his mouth drooping, he began to feel sad uncontrollably again.

Now my uncle has sent Zhier back...

after……

Needless to say, the Emperor had never cared about him before;

And the Queen Mother...

He treated his mother so badly before and even said such ugly words to her in such a treasonous way!

The Queen Mother will also prefer Shen Zhi...

After all, Shen Zhi's personality is exactly the kind of child she wants...

Just when I was feeling depressed and confused, I suddenly heard a "plop" sound.

Jiang Hui looked in the direction of the voice and saw it!

Little Shen Zhi, who was just eating milk cake under the rockery, ran to the lake at some point and fell into the water!

Seeing that his flapping movements were slowing down, he hurriedly retreated from the rockery.

I wondered why this little fool didn't ask for help?

He quickly ran to the lake, but hesitated...

and many more!

Since no one knew he was here, and no one saw Shen Zhi fall into the water, then...

If Shen Zhi drowned, no one would compete with him for his parents' love!

His heartbeat suddenly quickened and his ears began to buzz.

His fists clenched tightly, and the strong desire forced him to take a half step back.

however……

“…Brother…Brother…save…save me!”

Hearing Shen Zhi calling him brother almost exhausted, he could no longer think so much!

I cursed in my heart:

Jiang Hui, that's your own brother, what are you thinking! You're worse than an animal, and you're unworthy of the teachings of your father, the emperor, and your mother, the empress!

He looked around for a tool he could use.

Seeing Shen Zhi struggling to climb the smooth stone wall but unable to find a fulcrum to climb, Jiang Hui hurriedly took off his clothes.

He pulled up his sleeves, lay on the shore, and let his clothes flow down.

Shen Zhi was almost out of strength.

Fortunately, before he sank, he grabbed Jiang Huishun's clothes.

A three-year-old child is not light, especially since all his clothes are soaked, which greatly increases his weight.

But Jiang Hui still pulled him up.

He didn't know where he got the strength from, he just thought in his heart...

That was Zhier's younger brother. If anything happened to him, his parents and uncle would be very sad, so he gritted his teeth and dragged him up.

Shen Zhi, soaking wet, lay on the ground, breathing heavily.

Jiang Hui also lay exhausted on the shore, gasping for breath as he looked at the starry sky.

The two little brothers panted rhythmically for a while before they calmed down.

"Brother, thank you for saving me!"

Shen Zhi spoke first, and regardless of the water stains all over his body, he threw himself on Jiang Hui.

Jiang Hui was so chilled by him that he shivered.

He lifted Shen Zhi's small fleshy arm and stood up, shook his head gently, and helped him up calmly and steadily.

"Go to my palace and change your clothes."

"it is good!!"

Xiao Zhier nodded repeatedly, showing his signature toothy smile.

"I've been wanting to play with my brother for a long time, but it seems like he's always busy."

"……Um."

Jiang Hui felt a little bitter, but still said politely:

"You can come to see me anytime in the future."

"Thank you brother!"

Little Shen Zhi happily hugged Jiang Hui's hand, smiling coquettishly like a girl.

This made the usually reserved Jiang Hui feel a little disgusted. He pulled his arm out of Shen Zhi's wet arms and said, "

"My residence in the palace is in front. Please follow me."

Poor little Shen Zhi didn't know that he was disliked by his brother. He ran ahead happily and sighed as soon as he entered the palace gate:

"Wow...Brother's place is so big! It's even bigger than my East Palace!"

Jiang Hui was surprised when he heard this:

"You are in Qi State, living in the East Palace?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Hui lowered his eyes, somewhat surprised.

Uncle knew that Zhier's younger brother was the emperor's child and had half Anguo blood, but he still asked him to live in the East Palace, which symbolizes the status of the crown prince?

It's really... unexpected.

Seeing Shen Zhidong looking around, curious about everything, Jiang Hui didn't think about it anymore and echoed the explanation:

"Compared to Qi, Anguo has a larger land area but a smaller population, so the palace is naturally more spacious. However, the taxes are also more onerous..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhi's eyes instantly turned into stars of admiration.

"Wow, brother knows so much!"

"what?"

Jiang Hui was a little embarrassed.

"Isn't this common sense?"

Shen Zhi didn't take it seriously. He fiddled with the exquisite calligraphy on Jiang Hui's desk and tilted his head.

"I don't know! My uncle wouldn't let my grandfather introduce me to state affairs too early. He said, 'We need to protect the child's nature!'"

Jiang Hui was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes dejectedly.

Who is envious again? He doesn't say...
