After lunch, Xie Yuanfeng took Xiao Yunxi to choose a birthday gift for the fifth princess, while Duke Ningguo and Mo Ruochen sat aside playing chess.

"Oh, by the way," Xie Yuanfeng glanced at the calm Mo Ruochen, "your father is going to open a door on the west wall of the courtyard, so that when you go back to your mother's house, you don't have to take a carriage around the city. You can just walk two steps and come back.

Your father said that this way you can come back home every day, and if someone bullies you, we can rush over immediately. "

Xiao Yunxi: “…”

Mo Ruochen: “…”

When it comes to loving daughters, Quan Dali and you two are second to none, and no one dares to claim to be first!

Xiao Yunxi's nose was sour, and she leaned against Xie Yuanfeng's side, "Mom, I'm not that easy to bully, don't worry."

She knew that her parents were feeling guilty, guilty that she had been tortured by the Queen and Prince Zhennan's Mansion for several years.

Xie Yuanfeng touched her daughter's face and smiled, "Mother knows that you didn't suffer any loss in the Zhennan Palace, but that marriage itself was an injustice!

Before, your grandfather, parents were not in the capital, and your uncle, the emperor, put the blame on you for putting the overall situation first, forcing you to suffer grievances.

Mom feels sorry!

From now on, as long as my parents are here, no one, not even the king of heaven, can bully my daughter. If a mosquito sucks your blood, I will kill its entire family!"

Mo Ruochen didn't say anything. He was the one who asked to marry this little girl, so naturally he had to hold her in the palm of his hand and pamper her.

Before sunset, Xie Yuanfeng and Duke Ningguo saw them off.

At the gate, they were reluctant to leave for a long time, and Duke Ningguo looked at Mo Ruochen with a very unfriendly look.

They had played chess and drank tea together before, and he had called me "good son-in-law" with great admiration several times.

Now he has become a "disliked son-in-law".

Mo Ruochen was helpless, "When we get back home, I will immediately send someone to help you chisel the wall and build a door, so that you won't be late for Madam to come back and have dinner with her father-in-law and mother-in-law tomorrow."

Duke Ningguo's expression softened instantly and he nodded repeatedly.

Mo Ruochen helped Xiao Yunxi get on the carriage, then he climbed onto the horse, ready to go for a ride on the street.

When they arrived at the downtown area, Mo Ruochen helped Xiao Yunxi get off the carriage, and the two of them walked around casually.

It seems like the last time I went shopping like this was before I got married in my previous life. It’s been so many years.

Xiao Yunxi was both emotional and curious. She pulled Xia He to look here and there, having a lot of fun.

Mo Ruochen followed closely behind, holding a bag of change with a doting look on his face, ready to pay at any time.

Xiao Yunxi stopped in front of a jewelry stall, which was full of wood-carved hairpins. They were not valuable, but they were novel in style.

She picked up two of them and measured them on her head, then asked Mo Ruochen which one looked better.

"Madam is naturally beautiful, she will look good in any of them!"

"..." Xiao Yunxi felt that she was very shameless, but this old man was even more shameless!

She sighed silently, turned her head and continued to choose other jewelry.

In a private room on the second floor of Zhaixing Tower on the street, three men were standing by the window.

The one on the left is dressed like a scholar, wearing a light-colored brocade robe. The one in the middle is very burly, with broad shoulders and a big waist, wearing a black tights. The one on the right looks like a young man in light blue.

Although the three people looked different, their expressions at this moment were surprisingly consistent, and they were all in disbelief.

Behind them, Du Qi sat crookedly on the couch, eating melon seeds out of boredom, and pouted, "Now that you've seen it with your own eyes, you know I wasn't making it up, right?"

The man in black tights exclaimed, "Oh my God, is this still our ruthless, cold-faced and even colder-hearted God of War King Dingyuan?!

Look, he's still following a woman to pay!"

"You are a rough guy, you know nothing. Our prince is already this old, but he has never married or taken a concubine. I thought he was either incompetent or a homosexual. Now it seems that he just hasn't met his true love." The scholar in the light-colored brocade robe waved his fan and looked down at the people strolling on the street. "If he met his true love, it would be a dog-skin plaster."

Du Qi's eyes widened, "Do you want to be beaten with a military stick? How dare you say that about the prince?"

"This is the truth, if you don't believe me, just look!"

Du Qi threw away the melon seeds and ran to the window to see Xiao Yunxi wiping a piece of maltose with a handkerchief and handing it to the prince with a smile on her face...

Then, his prince actually ate it with a smile on his face!

Oh, heaven and earth, is this still the prince who is aloof from women and sits firmly on the throne like Liu Xiahui?

"If I go and disturb the prince now, will I be beaten?" The young man in light blue hesitated for a moment, "If I delay the military intelligence, will I be chopped off?"

As for the rest of you, you look at me and I look at you. It’s a simple choice between being beaten and being chopped. Just choose to be beaten.

Xiao Yunxi picked out a few more candies and prepared to feed them to Mo Ruochen, when she saw Ying Yi pop up, "Your Majesty, Lord Du, General Tao, General Wei, and Master Li are waiting for you upstairs. They said they have important military intelligence to report."

Mo Ruochen frowned, "Madam, how about going with me?"

Xiao Yunxi wanted to continue shopping. "Business is more important. Your Majesty, please go quickly. I will go shopping around and wait for you to come back."

Since Mo Ruochen is not here, I can just go buy some fashionable storybooks and read them together with my fifth cousin and sister Yun when I meet them.

Seeing that she was very interested, Mo Ruochen gave Xia He and Ying Yi a few instructions, then turned and went upstairs.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw four people with eight pairs of eyes staring at him, as if they wanted to check him up and down.

Mo Ruochen's face darkened. "Are you guys free? Or are you feeling itchy?"

The four of them immediately put away their gossiping expressions and bowed respectfully, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."

The prince's face changed. If he continued to joke, he would be courting death.

On the street, Xiao Yunxi picked up a dozen storybooks and continued shopping contentedly, wandering from one stall to another, buying whatever she liked. The vendors were so happy that Yingyi and Xia He could hardly hold on.

In front of a stall selling puppies and kittens, Xiao Yunxi smiled and touched them left and right, liking them very much.

Xiao Yunxi was already beautiful, and after leaving the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, everything went smoothly for her. She was in a good mood, and her face naturally became more delicate. The scene of the beautiful woman playing with her lover was really pleasing to the eyes. I don't know how many people stopped to admire it.

Xiao Yunxi's attention was all on the little puppy in her arms, and she didn't notice that she had become a beautiful scenery in the eyes of others.

After playing for a while, Xiao Yunxi felt a little hungry, so she pointed to the wonton stand not far away and said, "Let's go have a bowl of wontons."

Yingyi went there in advance, found the best seat, and wiped it himself, "Madam, please take a seat. What would you like to use?"

Xiao Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "Let's just order wontons."

She sat and looked outside. The bustling street scene really made people feel happy.

In an alley not far away, a group of five people were staring at Xiao Yunxi.

Batu, the sixth prince of the Great Desert, asked his attendant, Tel, "Have you checked the background of that woman?"

Tel didn't take it seriously at all. "What's there to investigate? She's just a pretty woman. If you like her, just snatch her away. The Emperor Dali is going to marry his daughter to our Third Prince. Can he really turn against Dame for a woman?"

Batu was really moved when he saw Xiao Yunxi eating wontons elegantly in the distance. However, judging from her attire, she must be from a wealthy family, so he must not offend any powerful figures.

"Sixth Prince, you might as well just snatch this girl away and take her body. I heard that the etiquette in the Dali period is very strict, and her body is yours. Even if her father is very powerful, you have no choice but to accept it."

Batu thought about it and walked over.
