C202 (1/2)

A few days later, the beginning of summer gradually arrived, the day became much hotter, the night was short and the day was long.

Xie Heng didn't return home for a few days, saying that he was busy with military matters and directly lived in the Black Feather Camp.

And within the Dijing City, Empress Yang's Fifty Inheritance was extremely grand, even the Boss Wen who bought half of the North Street were extremely busy, such as the wine and various items used at the banquet, all of the royal family's purchases were made through her.

The two of them would occasionally meet, but they could only casually talk for a bit, and didn't have the time to talk much.

It was only on the day of Empress Yang's birthday that Wen Jiu finally found the time to sit and chat with the madame and the two young ones in the garden behind Xie's Mansion.

Lieutenant Sun's culinary skills gradually reached perfection. At the very least, the pastries he made already looked pretty good. The two kids in the mansion loved to eat them.

Third Madame Xie took a bite of the Flea Soup and could not help but say, ”It's not bad, just a little bit sweet. It's easy for children to decay their teeth if they eat too much, and Xiaoliu has to eat less.”

Xie Xiaoqi replied with an ”Oh”, then turned his head around and continued stuffing food into his mouth.

”Third Aunt Aunt.” Xiaoliu called out to her, and said in a melancholy tone: ”I originally did not like eating such sweet pastries, if Third Brother was here, I would definitely not eat a single one, and leave everything to him. But if he could not eat them at such a faraway place, then I will reluctantly help him eat a few more pieces.”

Third Madame Xie was speechless.

Wen Jiu pampered the two little ones and said with a smile, ”Eat, just wait until Third Brother comes back and let Lieutenant Sun cook for him.”

Xiaoliu nodded and continued to chew.

”Sister-in-law.” Xie Zian suddenly thought of something and looked up at her. ”Why hasn't Eldest Brother returned recently?” he asked. Is there someone outside? ”

Wen Jiu could not help but laugh, he bent down and asked the little gongzi, ”Do you know what the meaning of there are people outside? Say, your elder brother, be careful that he comes back to punish you. ”

”Does Elder Brother look like the kind of person who would secretly raise beauties outside?” Xie Xiaoliu raised his hand and knocked it on the head of the Xiaoqi Brothers, ”If he was someone else, he would have brought him back to the Palace a long time ago.

The two of them had their own ideas, so it was hard for them to say anything when they were talking.

Xie Xiaoliu raised his head to look at her, ”Sister-in-law, elder brother always stays at home, aren't you anxious?”

Wen Jiu, ”...”

Sixth Miss's question was a little wild, she must be anxious, as though she was really afraid that Xie Heng had raised someone outside.

Tell me if you're in a hurry... When the Little Tyrant returned, she might not value him at all.

That's not right.

Wen Jiu raised his eyes slightly, ”Perhaps the military is too busy to leave, after a period of time when you have nothing better to do, you will return to your residence.”

Old Madame Xie coughed lightly and changed the topic, ”Dong Feng is so busy, does it mean that he's about to fight?”

The two youngsters stopped joking around.

The word ”war” was too heavy for those who yearned for peace and prosperity.

Wen Jiu comforted gently: ”It should come sooner or later. With brother here, we don't need to be afraid of outsiders in Great Yan.”

Old Madame Xie looked at her for a while, then nodded: ”What you said makes sense.”

Just as they were talking …

The court maid came to report, and the palace attendant passed along the imperial concubine's imperial decree. ”The empress has an order to invite Miss Wen to the Moon Lake for the banquet.”

When Wen Jiu heard this ”Miss Wen”, he had a bad premonition.

Because of Little Tyrant Xie's reputation of being bloodthirsty, Xie Family had never interacted with anyone in the Dijing City. The boss's birthday banquet, the Xi Family's wedding ceremony, had all tacitly set aside Xie Family, and no one wanted to make a thunderclap on a good day.

The Empress Yang was fifty years old, and the palace had long since sent posts to the nobles, the only difference being that they did not have Xie Family.

No matter how you looked at it, it did not seem to be a good thing. Xie Heng was not summoned, nor did she mention the Xie Family women.

The people from Xie Family were also a little uneasy in their hearts.

Wen Jiu walked forward, and without leaving a trace, he gave her a sealed red, and faintly smiled: ”It's been hard on Eunuch to come specially for this trip, I'll go change myself, and come over later.”
