Except for me, all my enemies have been reborn.

She tried to change the subject. She took a bite of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, which was exactly the same as the one made by her aunt.

Shang Shixu said in surprise: "Wangshu, did you do this?"

Bai Wangshu noticed that she was changing the subject and deliberately ignored her words.

"Sister, you really don't know?"

Seeing that Bai Wangshu was not falling for it, Shang Shixu had no choice but to change the subject.

"Hahahaha, Wangshu, the osmanthus cake you made is really good. Please make some more often in the future. I like it very much."

Shang Shixu felt guilty and didn't dare to look at him. He just kept eating and accidentally choked.

"Ahem, water!"

A glass of water was handed to her. Shang Shixu drank three hundred glasses and finally suppressed the discomfort.

Bai Wangshu patted her back and said helplessly: "Sister, even if you like to eat, you can't be so anxious. No one will snatch it from you. Don't choke again."

Shang Shixu finally recovered and looked up to see Bai Wangshu with a smirk on his face.

"Well, Wangshu, you are getting bolder and bolder, and you even dare to laugh at me!"

The two of them played and joked around, and when they were tired they drank tea and ate cakes together. No one brought up the previous issue again.

Yize came from the outer courtyard and saluted respectfully.

Shang Shixu understood that he had something to report, and looked at Bai Wangshu. Before he asked him to leave, he stood up on his own accord.

Before leaving, he said to Shang Shixu meaningfully: "Since my sister has something important to deal with, I will leave first. By the way..."

Shang Shixu's heart was in his throat. The issue had clearly been resolved, so why was he bringing it up again?

Bai Wangshu looked at Shang Shixu, who had a flattering smile on his face, and chuckled.

He shook his head and said, "Sister, you are really fascinating.

Remember to finish the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. I will make it for my sister every day."

After saying this, Bai Wangshu left completely.

Shang Shixu ate osmanthus cake to calm down, you are so good, Bai Wangshu,

How dare you scare her? I will get back at you next time.

The people finally left, and Shang Shixu took Yize to the study.

In the study room.

Yi Ze began to report: "Master, Ying Zhong has successfully sneaked in and is currently serving as the guard.

Taichu, Guxi, and Ruibin are still ordinary yamen runners."

Shang Shixu nodded. It was good enough that they could all get in.

After all, it is a secret service organization directly under the emperor.

"During this period, if Ying Zhong doesn't contact us, we should not have any contact with her to avoid arousing suspicion.

It won’t be too late to wait until she has established herself on her feet, and Taichu, Guxi and Ruibin will continue to keep in touch as normal.”

"Yes, landlord."

After Yize left, Wushe followed in.

"My Lord, the two children I brought back from the black market want to see you."

Shang Shixu thought about it carefully and realized that he had not visited them for a long time.

Bring some gifts and go see them. Shang Shixu walked around the study.

I didn't find anything that kids would like.

He said to Wushe, "Wushe, go to the street and buy some toys that children like.

I'll go to my aunt's yard to see them first."

Shang Shixu walked out of the study, thought for a while, and returned to the yard to bring the osmanthus cake made by Bai Wangshu.

Prime Minister's Residence, Izumo-in.

"Hahahahahaha, brother, come and catch me!"

"Brother, run slower. I'm coming to catch you."

"You two kids, run slower! Do you still want to eat the delicious cakes?"

Before Shang Shixu entered, he heard the children laughing and playing.

Izumo-in is really lively. My aunt loves lively places.

Sending these two children here really touched her heart.

Shang Shixu opened the door to the yard, but before he could greet the two little guys,

The younger child ran behind his brother in fear.

Shang Shixu looked at his aunt helplessly. Is she scary?

"Hahahahahaha, Xu'er, you also have moments like this. Your aunt thought you were omnipotent."

As soon as Shang Shixu heard her sarcastic tone, he knew that she was angry.

I have been very busy recently and have hardly set foot in Izumo-in Temple.

Otherwise, there is no way that the child would not recognize her.

My aunt was angry, and the consequences were serious. Shang Shixu immediately began to coax her: "My aunt, I've been too busy recently.

I didn't mean to not come. You see, I rushed here as soon as I had some free time."

Shang Shixu thought the reason she gave was perfect, but she forgot.

It was because these two children wanted to see her that the aunt asked Wushe to help pass on the message.

The aunt looked very happy, but Shang Shixu felt something was wrong.

"Xu'er, didn't you ask Wushe who told him to tell you that these two kids wanted to see you?"

Finished!

Shang Shixu smiled awkwardly and tried to slip away, but was caught and beaten by his aunt who was skilled in martial arts.

Shang Shixu squatted on the ground with his head covered, crying at his aunt.

"How about it, Xu'er? I'm still your aunt, huh? I'll let you go this time, but see if you dare to do it again next time."

Shang Shixu nodded repeatedly, indicating that he didn't dare to do it anymore.

"Pfft~"

Someone couldn't help laughing. Shang Shixu looked back in the direction of the sound.

I saw a petite and cute child hiding behind his brother and laughing secretly.

Shang Shixu thought the child was cute and wanted to tease him.

She walked over quickly, squatted in front of her brother, and poked her younger brother who was hiding behind him.

The child was poked and turned around to see that it was Shang Shixu. He turned pale with fright.

She grabbed her brother's clothes tightly and was about to cry.

Shang Shixu panicked. She didn't expect that she would be poked and the person would start crying.

She was overwhelmed and could only turn her attention to her brother who was more familiar to her.

The child was very smart and immediately understood the call for help in Shang Shixu's eyes.

He turned around and hugged his brother, comforting him softly: "Brother, this is Shang Shixu, Lord Shang. He is our savior. Don't be afraid of him."

When the crying child heard that it was his savior, he raised his head from his brother's arms.

Seeing that the child was willing to look at her, Shang Shixu struck while the iron was hot.

She picked up the osmanthus cake she had brought and handed it to him carefully.

"Please have some cakes and tell me your name, please."

It was Shang Shixu’s first time to coax a child. He was extremely excited and looked forward to the child’s reaction.

The child looked at his brother for help, and only after his brother nodded did he tremblingly take the pastry.

Choking with sobs, she replied to Shang Shixu: "Thank you, Lord Shang... um... my name is Liu Ning."

"Liu Ning? That's a nice name. What's your brother's name?"

After Shang Shixu knew her brother's name, she realized that she had not yet asked her brother's name.

Since these two children came to the prime minister's mansion, he has never taken care of them.

My brother was brave and familiar with Shang Shixu, so he quickly gave his name: "Sir Shang, my name is Liu An."
