The princess is very versatile, leaving the prince to become the richest

Chapter 201 Coaxing the Children

Now, from what Xiao Jingyi said, Xiao Jingshi discovered that his fifth brother was not as stupid as others said.

I'm afraid he is just hiding his incompetence.

I just don't know if he really loves Xiao Jingyu as well as he appears to be.

In history, there were many cases where even brothers from the same mother fought each other for the throne.

One is the legitimate son of the empress, and the other is the son of a deceased favorite concubine. If they really start to fight, it will be a very interesting show.

“You’re right, Jingyu’s identity is indeed more useful than yours and mine.

Speaking of myself, I feel ashamed.

I have been traveling around these years and have not studied the government affairs.

Besides, I have no interest in government affairs. Jingyi, your words are flattering me.

Therefore, if we encounter any problems, we should discuss them together or ask Jingyu for advice.

But he still needs to recover from his injuries, so I really can’t bear to disturb him.”

Xiao Jingyi is smart, and he, Xiao Jingshi, is not stupid either.

He has no one to rely on except his mother of low status, so he would not show any edge in front of Xiao Jingyi.

He had witnessed the Queen's methods when he was a child.

Even though he is so old now, he still dare not forget the past.

It's even his nightmare. After so many years, he still dreams about those bad things sometimes.

Every time he remembered those things, he was like a dejected mouse, only daring to lick his wounds in places where there was no light.

It was already good enough that he could avoid projecting his emotions towards the Queen onto Xiao Jingyi.

Of course, he didn't dare.

If he showed any sign of wanting to deal with Xiao Jingyi, he would be killed by the Queen's men before he could even make a move.

The most important thing is that his mother is still in the imperial palace in the capital.

His mother was his weak spot, and he did not dare to risk his own and his mother's lives.

The two people, each with their own thoughts, didn't want to stand out and neither wanted to gather everyone together.

But the situation is urgent and they can't keep wasting time like this.

"Second brother, why don't you leave this matter to Duke Ye Jiang Sheng?"

Xiao Jingshi listened to Xiao Jingyi's words and thought about it.

Jiang Sheng is the Duke of Ye, the father-in-law of Prince of Qi Xiao Jingyu, the emperor's relative, and the vanguard officer in charge of transporting grain and fodder this time.

Moreover, he has been getting along very well with the local people recently, and people have given Jiang Sheng unanimous praise.

Therefore, it is most appropriate to choose him as the organizer of this operation.

"Well, Jingyi's idea is good. I also think that Duke Ye is the most suitable."

Ling Xing, who was standing aside, was somewhat confused as he listened to the conversation between the two princes.

Although Jiang Sheng is the father of their princess, he does not have any of their princess's fierceness.

Is such a cowardly person really the most suitable candidate?

Ling Xing really wanted to ask, but there were two princes in front of him and he was just a servant, so how could he dare to question.

I had no choice but to follow them and find Jiang Sheng.

Ling Xing saw the little boy in Xiao Jingyi's arms and couldn't help but step forward.

Since he arrived, he has been busy and has no time to stop.

So he didn't pay any attention to Jiang Zhuoran. He had already said everything he needed to say.

It can be said that he has nothing to do now, and the other things are for the two masters to worry about.

"Fifth Prince, are you tired?

Why don't you let me hold the little prince in my arms?"

Xiao Jingyi, who was holding the child, dodged for a moment, then said to Ling Xing.

“No, the King is not tired.

How heavy can a child of this age be?

Are you looking down on me when you say this?"

Xiao Jingyi rejected Ling Xing without hesitation and questioned him at the same time.

Facing Xiao Jingyi's questioning, Lingxing was still afraid.

So he quickly bowed and apologized.

"Fifth Prince, I didn't mean that. I just saw you were holding her for quite some time, so I wanted to share the burden with you."

In response, Xiao Jingyi snorted, hugged Jiang Zhuoran and turned away.

"If you really want to share the burden, it's not impossible. I'll leave the selection to you later."

After hearing what Xiao Jingyi said, Ling Xing couldn't help but curse in his heart, "It's true that the world has changed, and the Fifth Prince has become more and more treacherous."

Ling Xing could only watch helplessly as Jiang Zhuoran was taken away by Xiao Jingyi. He couldn't help but roar in his heart, "My soft and sweet little prince, I want to hug him too!"

There is no way, the official level will crush people to death.

What's more, the other party is a prince. Even if he is the personal bodyguard of the King of Qi, there is still a huge difference in their identities.

However, Jiang Zhuoran in Xiao Jingyi's arms was very understanding. Seeing Lingxing falling behind, he shouted.

"Uncle Lingxing, hurry up and catch up."

Ling Xing, who was originally looking disappointed, saw Jiang Zhuoran in front of her holding Xiao Jingyi's neck with one hand and waving at her with the other hand.

The gloom in his heart was immediately dispelled by the young master's smile.

So Lingxing immediately trotted after him.

However, he also moved closer to Jiang Zhuoran and did not dare to move too forward.

Because he was afraid that he would be criticized by Xiao Jingyi again.

He really took after his master with his mouth. When assigning tasks, he never slacked and was never careless.

But when it comes to other things, he is like a mute and cannot explain himself.

After Lingxing caught up, Jiang Zhuoran's little head rested on Xiao Jingyi's shoulder.

"Uncle Lingxing, is it really not raining outside?"

Seeing that Jiang Zhuoran was willing to chat with him, Lingxing followed suit.

"It won't rain anymore, because uncle can come back only when the sky clears up."

After Lingxing finished answering, Jiang Zhuoran asked again.

"Uncle Lingxing, I would like to ask you a question."

Looking at such a polite child in front of him, Lingxing said with an open heart.

"Young Master, if you have any questions, just ask."

Jiang Zhuoran hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

"Uncle Lingxing, how is my mother?

when will she come back

I miss her.”

Jiang Zhuoran knew that his mother had gone to save people, and it would be wrong for him to do this, as he would be holding his mother back.

Looking at the young master who was very happy just now but now became sad, Lingxing said with heartache.

"Don't worry, young master, the princess is fine.

As for when he will come back, it is not certain at the moment. We have to wait until the prince recovers."

Jiang Zhuoran listened to Lingxing's explanation very seriously, but still didn't get the correct answer. Jiang Zhuoran looked even more lonely than before.

Seeing this, Lingxing decided to take a risk in order to make Jiang Zhuoran happy.

“Now that the rain has stopped, let’s arrange things.

If I have nothing else to do, I will take you up the mountain to see the prince and princess.

What do you think? "

Jiang Zhuoran, who was originally emo, suddenly brightened up.

"real?

Uncle Lingxing, will you really take me to find my mother and the others?"
