Chapter 69

Early the next morning, the three of them sat together for breakfast, and Bai Qirou said, "I'm going to Prince Li's Mansion later."

Hearing this, Bai Qinian nodded, "Then I'll go too."

"Alright, you guys go, I'll go back to the mansion today." Father Bai said, he also had something to say about Old Master Bai.

The three of them went out after dinner, brother and sister Bai Qirou went to Prince Li's Mansion with gifts, and Father Bai went back to the White Mansion...

"Rou'er..." On the way to Prince Li's Mansion, Bai Qinian called to stop the younger sister who was walking in front, and was about to say something, but was interrupted.

"Brother, I know what you want to say, so there's no need to say it." Bai Qirou turned around, "I know, Dad also has his own difficulties, so he won't take it to heart."

Hearing this, Bai Qinian couldn't say anything, but in the final analysis, they still owed Rou'er...

Seeing that her brother's expression was a little downcast, Bai Qirou knew what he was thinking, so she didn't say anything more.

After walking for a while, we will arrive at Prince Li's Mansion, Bai Qirou is gearing up, this time she must be ashamed!
Bai Qinian also adjusted his mentality, and when he saw her like this, he felt a headache, and tentatively said: "Rou'er, you don't intend to find someone to fight as soon as you enter, do you?"

"Otherwise?" Bai Qirou said with a serious face, "I don't want to exchange pleasantries, I'm already so familiar."

Bai Qinian raised his forehead, "There is no one who fights the first time you come to the door. Besides, this year is different from previous years. This year, Prince Li married the princess. You are a female family member. Remember to pay a visit to the princess later."

"Princess?" Bai Qirou was surprised, "Why, I'm not the side concubine or aunt in the palace, and isn't the concubine the sixth princess of Languo? I'm the most timid person on weekdays. If I'm like this, I won't be scared. What should I do next?"

Bai Qinian: "..." It seemed reasonable, "Then go to see the prince first, and then go to see the princess after asking." After speaking, she walked straight forward without waiting for her to refute.

Wang Fu, Steward Wang looked at the two people who came to visit, and saluted respectfully, "Major General, Miss Bai."

"You don't have to be polite, butler. We, brother and sister, are here to visit the lord. I wonder if the lord is free?" Bai Qinian grabbed the younger sister who wanted to speak, and said first.

"My lord is in the study, I will take the two of you there." Steward Wang said with a smile, and made a gesture of invitation, leading him into the palace.

Huo Chenxiao was sitting in the study reading a book when Wu Feng came in, "My lord, the young general and miss of the Bai family are here."

"Ask them to sit in the living room, the king will come later." Huo Chenxiao put down his book and said.

Not long after the two brothers and sister Bai Qinian sat down, Huo Chenxiao came over from the study. Bai Qinian saw someone approaching and stood up, "My lord, it's been a long time."

"Yes." Looking at the person in front of him, Huo Chenxiao had a rare smile in his eyes, "Sit down."

Not long after sitting down, Huo Chenxiao saw Miss Bai's family looking around, "Bai Qirou, what are you looking at?"

"Ah?" When Bai Qirou was called out, she suddenly turned her head, "Oh, I want to see your princess and that prince."

When mentioning the princess and the prince, Huo Chenxiao softened, "She took the child out today, and will come back later."

Seeing him like this, Bai Qinian was also a little shocked. Although he had heard on the way back to Beijing that the prince and concubine had a good relationship and cared about the adopted son, he didn't take it seriously. After all, the prince was His Majesty His own son, and that princess was supposed to be the emperor's woman, both of them had something to do with the emperor, and the emperor had always disliked the prince, let alone treating them well, it was already a kindness for the prince to keep them.

But today, it seems that those rumors are not without reason...

However, Bai Qirou didn't care about those twists and turns, "In this case, let's go and learn from each other." Saying that, he wanted to get up and walk outside.

"No." Huo Chenxiao flatly refused, still sitting in his seat and drinking tea calmly.

"Why! Don't worry, I've improved a lot compared to before, and it won't be a problem to fight you." Bai Qirou vowed.

Seeing that Huo Chenxiao was still standing still, Bai Qirou didn't want to give up this opportunity, so the two of them were deadlocked.

"Rou'er, don't make trouble." Bai Qinian tugged at her sleeve.

"Miss, you just came here, and you haven't had any tea yet. There's no rush to discuss this now, and there will be opportunities in the future." The butler persuaded.

Bai Qirou thought it made sense, nodded, "Okay, then I'll go outside for a walk, you can talk." Then he left.

Knowing that Bai Qirou knew the way, Huo Chenxiao still signaled the housekeeper to follow him out.

"My lord, when will your concubine come back?" Bai Qinian was interested in the concubine and his son whom he had never met.

"What are you doing?" Huo Chenxiao put down his teacup, glanced at Bai Qinian, and mentioned his concubine gracefully. What did he want to do?
Feeling his eyes, Bai Qinian choked, "What can I do, my best friend is married, and I can't meet my friend's wife yet?"

I don't know if it was that word that touched him, but Huo Chenxiao returned to his usual appearance, but his tone was softer, "She finally went out today, and she will probably return home at night."

"At night? You don't want to send someone to ask?" Bai Qinian asked tentatively.

"No, as long as she is happy, sending someone over may disturb her."

"You, are you tempted by this princess?" If she was just surprised just now, she is dumbfounded now.

"Yes." Huo Chenxiao nodded, and simply admitted.

"My God, you are too fast. She has been married to the palace for less than half a year."

"Yes."

"I'm curious, what did she do to impress you." Bai Qinian exclaimed.

"She doesn't like me, it's just my wishful thinking about her."

"What!!!" Another shocking news hit Bai Qinian, "She still doesn't like you?!"

Hearing this, Huo Chenxiao was a little depressed again, "I'm old and ugly, why should she like me."

"You...have you misunderstood yourself?" Bai Qinian looked at him with a bit of a lost look and felt a toothache, "Who are you, Huo Chenxiao? It's amazing, there are still women in this world that you don't deserve? It's almost the same as saying that there is no woman in this world that you like."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Huo Chenxiao, as if thinking of something, and added: "Oh, I have it now, but he rejected you." Then I really couldn't figure it out, "The princess thinks you are old and ugly?" What kind of look? This is.

"She never said that." Huo Chenxiao said in a serious tone.

"She didn't say it? Then what do you say about yourself—" Bai Qinian stopped abruptly, and after thinking about it, "Wait, maybe you didn't tell others about this at all, so you just keep guessing here."

Under Bai Qinian's complicated eyes, Huo Chenxiao nodded.
