Xiao Ren did not return to his yard, but he was called to the back house by his concubine Ding to measure his clothes.

When he came out of the Qin King's study, the Qin King called Xiao Ren and frowned and said, "Why do you dress like a black impermanent at such a young age?"

The King of Qin said this without evading others. The eunuchs immediately went to inform their concubine Ding.

Ding's house was in the mansion for many years and had only one daughter. After the death of the Princess Qin, Ding's house was taken care of by Ding's house.

Xiao Ren and Zhou Zheng walked halfway and were called by the eunuch sent by Ding.

Xiao Ren and Zhou Zheng are young and can still go to the back house at will. Even so, Ding did not show up.

The place they went to was the yard of the former Princess Qin. After the death of the Princess Qin, the King of Qin did not seal the yard, but moved the relics of the prince and the second prince in. Some of these relics were left in Xi'an when they were young, and some were retrieved from the capital. The Princess Qin could not see his two sons until his death.

Zhou Zheng often comes here, and Xiao Ren occasionally comes with him.

The yard did not become deserted and gloomy after the death of Princess Qin, but was more lively than it was back then.

When we arrived today, the eunuch and nanny from the knitting room of the royal mansion were already waiting, and Zhou Zheng's sister, Princess Yining, was there.

Yining was nine years old, and his biological mother Ding. When the Princess Qin was alive, she liked Yi Ning very much and even kept her by her side. It was not until the Princess Qin passed away that Yining returned to Ding.

However, Yining and Ding were not close. Instead, they would come to the yard where Princess Qin lived when she had the chance. She grew up here and had the happiest time here.

After hearing this, the King of Qin did not scold her, but instead asked her to move her back.

Ding was very sad about this, but she was just a concubine, just like an ordinary family's concubine, but she was not as good as Princess Yining who had been awarded a title earlier, so she could only do it after crying for a few times.

The yard of Princess Qin was very large, with two cross-yards inside. Yining occupied the west courtyard, while the relics of the prince and the second prince were placed in the east courtyard.

"Third brother, seventh brother, you are here." Perhaps because of his young age, Yi Ning's appearance does not look like Ding's. His round face and round eyes have two round wine vortexes when he smiles.

Whether it was Zhou Zheng or Xiao Ren, they were very annoyed about asking them to measure their clothes. Unfortunately, this was Concubine Ding's kindness, so they came.

When they saw Yi Ning, their moods became more relaxed.

Zhou Zheng and Xiao Ren, who were forced to do something like two puppets, were finally breathed a sigh of relief by the eunuchs and nannies.

"Third brother, seventh brother, have you come back from your father? Have you heard him mention the Lantern Festival on the Lantern Festival?" Yining asked.

Lantern Festival? What kind of Lantern Festival?

Xiao Ren looked inexplicable, but Zhou Zheng explained to Yi Ning softly that he would not hold a lantern festival this year for the sake of peace and quiet, and there was no other meaning.

Yining flattered her mouth and wanted to cry. Zhou Zheng coaxed her a few words with a good temper and promised to take her out of the house next time to buy delicious food at Baishui Street.

Seeing that Zhou Zheng had coaxed Yining, Xiao Ren turned around and walked out. Yining was Zhou Zheng's sister. He was left to Zhou Zheng's own thing to coax his sister. He was the most annoying girl, especially this kind of little girl.

"Brother Qi, Brother Qi, don't leave." Yi Ning's soft voice came from behind.

Xiao Ren had to turn around and asked, "What's the matter?"

Yi Ning ran to Xiao Ren in three steps in two steps: "Brother Qi, can you please give me two from the guards?"

"What do you want people to do?" Xiao Ren said angrily.

"It's okay, I just want them to protect me." Yining said.

"When you go out, there are guards following you. What do you want two more people to do?" Xiao Ren asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zheng exclaimed and said, "Ning'er, is there someone bullying you? I've just asked Xiaoqi to ask someone to be brave. Tell the third brother who bullied you?"

When Zhou Zheng said this, he remembered that there were often female relatives coming over these days. In the past ten days, Yining was bullied by those female relatives.

"No, no, who dares to bully me? He kicked him away with one kick." Yining said, not forgetting to shake his short legs.

Zhou Zheng had to ask again, Xiao Ren had already frowned and turned around and left. He was the most annoying to the little girl, especially those like Yi Ning, who jumped like a fool.

"Brother Qi, have you agreed to me? I will just think you agreed." Yi Ning's shout came from behind, followed by Zhou Zheng's reprimand.

In the flash of lightning, Xiao Ren suddenly remembered someone.

He is about the same age as Yining, but his every move is different from Yining, and he is much more pleasing to Yining.

When he returned to his yard in the front yard of the royal palace, Xiao Ren immediately called Yueyang: "Miss Shen and the others separated from us when they were in Jin'an. Where did they live after they arrived in Xi'an? Go and check!"

The next day, the information arrived in front of Xiao Ren.

Shen Tong and his six people live on Shuyuan Street, not far from the royal palace, at most half an hour away.

But at this time, Yi Ning quietly slipped to the front yard to look for Xiao Ren, and asked two guards to protect her personally.

Xiao Ren was really too lazy to deal with this little girl. He handed Yi Ning to Yueyang, asking Yueyang to coax Yi Ning to be happy, while he went to Shuyuan Street himself.

The New Year is coming soon, and the streets are full of joy. A while ago, people who were filial to themselves because of the death of the prince, have long since disappeared from sadness and are busy with the New Year.

Before Xiao Ren could find the house found in Yueyang, he saw Shen Tong.

Shen Tong and Fangfei each held a string of candied haws in their hands, and stood at the corner of the Shuyuan Street, gnawing happily.

When Xiao Ren suddenly appeared in front of them, both of them were shocked.

"Xiao Ren, long time no see." Shen Tong said happily.

"Well, come back to the palace with me." Xiao Ren said blindly.

"No, I don't want the King of Qin to see me now," Shen Tong said, suddenly thinking of something, she asked again, "Did you and the people below you tell the King of Qin about me?"

"No, I didn't say it. The six people who have seen you are not the kind of people who will complain secretly. If I don't let you talk about your affairs, they won't say it." Xiao Ren said.

Shen Tong breathed a sigh of relief, took a bite of the candied haws, and asked vaguely: "Then what are you doing for me?"

"I'll see if yours has run away." Xiao Ren said coldly. The woman in the secret passage of the Duke of Guardian Mansion was not Shen Tong's mother, so Xiao Ren suspected that this dead girl was afraid she wanted to escape and continued to look for her mother.

"It's so cold in winter, I won't run away. You don't have to guard against me like a thief." I didn't feel anything when I first lived here. But after living for a long time, people always reached out to look here.
