Reborn to be a mistress, she went crazy killing the legitimate daughter

Ji Siyue locked herself in the room in frustration and did not let anyone in.

Shen Yiran pulled Bo Jinnian, who had just returned home, in to comfort him.

Although Bo Jinnian felt a little tired, he still went to knock on the door immediately.

"Daddy has something to tell you, can Yueyue come in?"

There was no answer from the room.

Shen Yiran said beside him: "Daddy is very tired, do you still want him to stand outside all the time?"

After hearing this, Ji Siyue got up and opened the door.

When he saw Bo Jinnian, Shen Yiran and Ji Sicheng standing outside the door, he turned back and went in angrily.

Shen Yiran persuaded Bo Jinnian to go in and closed the door.

Bo Jinnian sat down and poured himself a cup of tea. "How long have you been in the room? Even the tea is cold."

Ji Siyue sat at the head of the bed, hugging a pillow, pouting her lips and saying nothing.

"I know the Second Madam mentioned that the old lady wouldn't let you leave the house. In fact, this is how it should be. All girls are like this. Only your mother dotes on you, so she allows you to go out."

Ji Siyue understood it very well. He let go of the pillow and sighed deeply. The eight-year-old seemed to have a lot of worries.

"But if you still let me stay in the mansion all day, I will be bored to death."

"Although you can't go out at will, we can still find a way to learn something if you want to."

When Ji Siyue heard this, his eyes immediately sparkled. He jumped off the bed and sat down at the table: "Then can I continue to learn horseback archery?"

"can."

"Who will teach me?"

"Your mother just said that she knows a woman who is very good at sword dancing. Are you willing to learn?"

"A woman who can dance with a sword? Really?"

Ji Siyue was very easy to coax, her little face was full of surprise, without a single cloud of worry.

Bo Jinnian smiled and rubbed her little head: "Listen to mother and don't lock her out anymore. Do you know how worried she is?"

Ji Siyue immediately licked her lips, turned around and walked to the door, and sure enough, she saw Shen Yiran and Ji Sicheng were still there.

"It made everyone worried."

Shen Yiran looked at Bo Jinnian who was winking at him in the room, and knew that the storm had stopped. He came up with a smile and told Bai Zhi to bring in the box.

"Are you hungry?"

Ji Sicheng followed in and waited until Ji Siyue finished her meal before he said with a serious face, "Sister, what you did this time was wrong. Whenever something happens, we should discuss it as a family. It's useless to hide and get angry alone."

Ji Siyue stuck out her tongue and hid in Shen Yiran's arms.

Shen Yiran looked at Ji Sicheng, who was only ten years old, and said with a smile: "Yueyue, stand up and answer your brother's questions seriously."

Seeing that he couldn't hide, Ji Siyue could only stand up, bow and nod: "Thank you for your teachings, brother. Yueyue knows that you are doing good to me. I will not be so willful in the future."

Bai Zhi, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but smile and said, "Both the young master and the young lady have grown up so fast, and they are so sensible, it's really rare!"

Bo Jinnian reached out and held Shen Yiran's hand and nodded, "That's right, time passes really quickly."

But Shen Yiran said, "Yes, Lord Marquis, you have been in Kyoto for more than four years, and His Majesty has never asked you to take up an official post outside the capital..."

After hearing this, Ji Sicheng sat down and asked, "Father is the Minister of War, shouldn't he be doing his job in the government office?"

Seeing that Ji Sicheng had shown interest in the court, Shen Yiran began to guide him step by step.

"But your father was also a minister of the Ministry of War, and he also had to go out to fight on his wedding night."

Ji Siyue yawned. She had no interest in this topic and just sat there listening.

"Indeed. I heard that His Majesty trusts my father now, so it is normal for him to want to keep my father in Kyoto, right?"

Shen Yiran nodded and smiled: "As the saying goes, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. There are all kinds of official struggles around us. We can't just be content with the status quo. We should always think a few steps ahead so that we can handle changes with ease in the future."

Ji Sicheng nodded thoughtfully: "Then how should we prepare?"

Shen Yiran rubbed Ji Sicheng's head and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Your sister can't go out now, and you still have to go to school. The key now is to learn more."

"Exactly. Once you have learned to a certain level and accumulated enough experience, you will be able to find ways to deal with these problems when you encounter them."

Ji Sicheng heard this and bowed solemnly, "I will try my best."

After sending the two children to bed, Bai Zhi brought a basin of hot water.

"Master, soak your feet."

Shen Yiran instructed Bai Zhi: "Tomorrow you go to the fan shop and invite Jiang Feiqing to dinner at the mansion. I have arrangements."

After hearing this, Bai Zhi nodded and agreed to go out.

Bo Jinnian put his feet into the hot water, leaned on the bed and smiled faintly: "Do you want to match Bai Zhi and Jiang Feiqing?"

Shen Yiran heard this and poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to him: "My dear, have you figured it out too?"

Bo Jinnian smiled bitterly: "That silly boy always goes to the Marquis' Mansion for no reason, who can't see that?"

Shen Yiran took the cup and sat next to the bed: "Bai Zhi didn't notice it, so I want them to talk alone."

Bo Jinnian twisted his neck and said, "You really are very good at predicting things."

Shen Yiran was shocked when he heard this and asked immediately what happened.

"Today, someone complained that I was too harsh. His Majesty saw it and summoned me alone to tell me that there was a plague in Liangzhou. I had done meritorious service in treating the plague before, so he asked me to go again."

When Shen Yiran heard this, he immediately started thinking about it.

"It's because my second brother has been too flamboyant recently. Although we know that he wants to make friends, in the eyes of His Majesty, he is not a member of the Marquisate. Now that there are two assistant ministers, the status of the Marquisate has been greatly improved. His Majesty is still a little wary."

Bo Jinnian also thought of this: "So I agreed to go. The fastest round trip will take half a year. I am worried that if I leave you alone, the burden of the Marquis' Mansion will fall on you. I can't bear it."

Shen Yiran lowered his eyelids, his cheeks slightly reddened, but he still took the initiative to reach out and hold Bo Jinnian's hand, interlocking their fingers, and just smiled.

"It's just the things in the Marquis' Mansion. I can handle them."

Bo Jinnian still felt a little ashamed, and took Shen Yiran into his arms: "I will go and talk to my second brother. If he is willing to behave himself, nothing should happen outside the Marquis' Mansion."

"Don't worry, when will we leave?"

"We'll leave in three days."

Shen Yiran started to arrange for Bo Jinnian's trip.

There was no need for Bo Jinnian to say anything. Bo Jinjue was an official in the court, and he could not see the reasons and intentions of His Majesty.

He immediately reduced the number of banquets, retired from the palace as he was in poor health and could not drink alcohol, and rested after court hours.

Bo Jinnian felt relieved and set off transporting food and fodder for disaster relief.

Shen Yiran took the two children and personally sent them to Shili Pavilion outside the city. When he saw that there were no more people or horses, he slowly went back.

But unexpectedly, Fang Yonghao had already received the news and was waiting on the road.
