Chapter 335: Letters One After Another
There is a box inlaid with turquoise in the main house of Zhaixingyuan, placed on the top shelf behind the little girl's desk.
It was filled with letters sent by Qi Shanyuan from Peizhou.
Since the little girl couldn't reach that place herself, she thought that no one else could reach it either, and she seemed to have regarded the highest shelf as her own treasure trove.
The sun rises and sets, and the autumn leaves in the yard fall and are then covered with white snow.
Time flies, and boxes appear on the shelf one after another.
There are always all kinds of novel and interesting toys in Jiang An's house.
Each one has its origin, some were made by Li Xingsang when she was free, some were bought by Qi Shanyuan from the south at a high price, some were given to her by soldiers in the army, and some were used by her father to amuse her from time to time...
General Xie was even more exaggerated. Wherever he went, he would bring back something for the little girl.
The smooth stones by the Song Lake, the small yellow chrysanthemums growing beautifully by the fields on the outskirts of the city, even if he went to Chunxing Tower to listen to some music, he would bring back a sugar man for Jiang An by the roadside.
For this sugar man, he had fought many battles of wits and courage with the prince.
When the little girl was changing her teeth, all the malt candies in the palace were hidden away, but there was one person who doted on her and bought her money whenever she was craving for it.
As an old father, Jiang Jichen has been very worried about this matter!
When Hu Yan came, he teased and asked Jiang An to look for any white hair on the prince's head.
Autumn goes and winter comes, and soon it’s a new year again…
No matter how fast time passes, it seems that it has left no trace in Zhaixingyuan.
The most important thing is that when you stand in the yard, you can always hear the soft and tender voice of a little girl calling you.
……
During the Lantern Festival after the New Year, Chongzhou was as lively as usual, even more lively than in previous years!
If there is any difference...
That was the Princess Mobei who participated in the Shangyuan competition.
Since she entered Nan Shang, she has stayed indoors and has not seen anyone. It is rare for her to see the little girl for three or four days.
In previous competitions, she has always been the one who refuses to admit defeat. No matter how powerful Jiang An is, she will try her best to go against this little girl!
But this year, Princess Mobei was distracted frequently and looked uninterested.
After the test, Jiang An invited her to Yufulou and asked her what happened.
Princess Mobei stared at her for a long while, and just raised her chin, still speaking in her arrogant tone: "This princess... is fine!"
"My father has only one daughter, the princess. I have been doted on since I was born. What is there for the princess to worry about?"
Jiang An frowned and waved his hand. The guards and maids in the box went out or turned their backs.
She looked at Princess Mobei, and her delicate face showed an admonishing expression that was not appropriate for her age. "If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh. It's ugly."
Tsk...that's so heartbreaking.
Jiang An's words made her take off all her disguise.
The spoiled princess sitting opposite turned her head slightly to hide her red eyes, and the suppressed emotions in her eyes disappeared in an instant.
Her thin back relaxed and she leaned back against the chair as if relieving herself of any stress.
The princess closed her eyes, and there seemed to be an indissoluble mist between her pretty eyebrows.
"Heh..." She just laughed at herself.
"I thought I was just pretending so well."
It turns out that even this little girl can see...
Jiang An could see it, so why couldn't her father and mother see it?
In the end, can't see it, or pretend not to see it.
"Jiang An, this princess has a question for you..."
Princess Mobei suddenly leaned forward, with sparks of fire flashing in her eyes.
The little girl was stunned and blinked her round eyes.
She tilted her head and nodded obediently.
"Just ask~"
"If King Zheng wants to appoint a crown prince in the future, how will you deal with it?"
"Eh?"
Jiang An's delicate little face wrinkled up, and he answered tentatively, "Should I be happy?"
Is it not good to be happy? She should be more restrained. After all, she is An An who has seen the world!
With a bang, Princess Mobei stood up suddenly and raised her voice, "How can I be happy!"
The little girl subconsciously covered her cheeks with her two chubby hands and curled up into a pancake.
Her eyes were bright and she asked sincerely, "My father is going to make me the crown prince. From now on, the palace will belong to me... No... It will all belong to An An. Can't I be happy for a while?"
Princess Mobei: ...
“Your father…you…!”
Her mind was in a tangle and she was so angry that her mouth almost didn't belong to her.
"That was not what I meant!"
Jiang An was confused, and his voice gradually became smaller, "What does that mean~"
Why is it so difficult to enlighten a beautiful woman?
Xie Yunshan didn’t say that either…
If she had known this earlier, she would have gone home to find her father.
“I have a friend who…”
Princess Mobei originally wanted to be more tactful, but when she met Jiang An's silly look, she gave up.
"never mind!"
Jiang An: Hmm?
Seeing her emotions come and go, the little girl didn't dare to say anything.
The princess sat down again and told him everything.
"My father has reached the age to appoint a crown prince, but I am his only daughter, so he wants to adopt a son from a side branch and support him as the next King of Mobei."
Of course, Princess Mobei did not dare to say how much of this was instigated by others.
She looked out the window at the bustling crowd and saw a father running a small stall opposite putting a carefully wrapped piece of maltose into the mouth of his young daughter.
Even though they were so far apart, Princess Mobei still felt that she could hear the father asking his daughter whether the maltose was sweet...
She spoke slowly, the smile on her lips still full of sarcasm.
"Actually, I can understand my father's intention. The elderly kings on the grassland don't live long."
There are too many, too many strong warriors waiting for his defeat, waiting to trample his head underfoot and take over his territory, troops, and relatives.
How would a beautiful princess cope with the situation then?
