Hua Sui and Wu Ji took A Bao outside to play shuttlecock.

Mingjin sat inside.

The gate was open and one could see the lush osmanthus trees in bloom in the courtyard.

Gu Mingheng treated Yingge and his sister very well. They gave them a separate courtyard and maids to take care of their daily life.

Mingjin was holding a bowl of tea that the maid had just brought over.

The tea is Yunnan black tea.

Even drinking at night will not be a problem.

Brother Ying stood aside.

She was still as quiet as ever.

After answering Ming Jin's questions, there was no sound again.

It was very quiet in the room.

It's quite lively outside.

Wu Ji and Hua Sui accompanied A Bao, taking turns to play shuttlecock. Even at such a distance, their laughter could not be hidden.

But Brother Ying only looked for a while today and then turned his gaze to the girl in front of him.

The girl was wearing a red dress today.

Different from her carefree and romantic appearance in men's clothing, when she wears women's clothing, she always seems aloof and cold, unapproachable, like the unattainable snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountains.

Brother Ying could feel that she was not in good shape today.

It seems like he is trapped by something, or like he is thinking about some difficult and complicated problem.

As a subordinate.

Actually, you shouldn't ask.

She just needs to be an obedient and sharp knife.

But thinking of what she said that night, Yingge hesitated for a long time, and finally blurted out the question: "What's wrong with you?"

Her throat has healed.

The voice was no longer as hoarse as it had been a few days ago, but it still sounded monotonous and dry.

But it was precisely because of her unique tone that Ming Jin came back to his senses.

"what?"

she asked.

Yingge looked at her and said, "You look troubled."

Ming Jin was about to put the teacup back on the table when she heard this. She paused for a moment, but then she said calmly, "Nothing, just some trivial matters."

Yingge obviously didn't believe what she said.

How could such a brave and resourceful person like her be trapped by trivial matters?

But since she didn't want to say more, Brother Ying didn't ask any more questions.

"Tomorrow, Wu Ji will take you to my place." Ming Jin and Ying Ge talked about business.

Brother Ying didn't say anything, just replied "OK".

"gone."

Mingjin stood up after he finished speaking.

It was late at night and it was time for her to go home.

Brother Ying took her out.

The two of them were walking one in front and one behind, having fun outside. Abao saw Mingjin first, and he was no longer afraid of them at all.

When he saw Mingjin coming out, he smiled and called out to her, "Princess!"

Children naturally mature quickly.

The peaceful life these days also made Abao finally look like a child of his age.

It can also be seen that Brother Ying protected him very well.

That's why he can go through so much and still be so lively and cheerful.

"Ah."

Mingjin smiled when he saw him.

"We'll go back first. You and your sister should pack up. Guard Wu will take you to my place tomorrow."

Abao answered obediently and did not try to persuade him to stay.

Wu Ji was a little surprised to hear this. He was still holding the shuttlecock in his hand. He looked at Ming Jin and asked, "The princess left so soon? The prince will probably be back soon."

"He would be glad to know you were coming."

If it were in the past, Ming Jin would have just waited, but today her thoughts were so confused that she didn't know how to face Gu Mingheng.

"No, I've been out all day today. If I don't go back, my grandmother will probably be worried."

After Ming Jin said this, Wu Ji naturally couldn't persuade him anymore and could only say, "Then I will escort you out."

As he said this, he returned the shuttlecock to Abao and led Mingjin on the way.

"Abao, see you tomorrow."

Hua Sui didn't notice anything. Before leaving, he greeted A Bao with a smile, nodded to the taciturn Ying Ge, and then followed Ming Jin.

A group of people walked out.

Unfortunately, Mingjin eventually met Gu Mingheng.

The two met at the door.

Besides him, there is also Yuan Yu.

The two men were riding horses, obviously they came here together.

In fact, from a distance, Yuan Yu saw a carriage parked in front of the palace.

He also had dinner in the palace today.

When my aunt knew that he was engaged to the girl from the Xu family, she was very happy to see that he had finally settled down.

In the evening, besides him, Gu Mingheng, His Majesty, the Crown Prince and Xiao Wu were also there.

They made him drink a lot of wine.

At the banquet, everyone was very happy, but Yuan Yu was a little annoyed.

He didn't want to get married at all.

But in the end, he couldn't convince his mother.

His mother didn't know what he was thinking, nor did she know that he had been looking for someone for the past few years.

Last night, his mother cried with him and talked to her a lot.

She is old and has limited energy, so there are fewer and fewer things she can take care of.

But the Yuan family, as a whole, needs someone to take care of it.

The eldest sister-in-law passed away early, and the eldest brother had no intention of getting married. If he refused to get married, she would have to do everything at home alone in the future.

When he saw a few strands of silver hair on his mother's temples, he finally nodded and agreed.

Normally, Yuan Yu would look down upon this amount of wine, but perhaps because he was in a bad mood today, he felt that the wine was intoxicating even without intoxicating people.

He didn't want to go home and be nagged by his mother, so he just came to Gu Mingheng.

"Gu Mingheng, why is there a carriage parked in front of your house at this time?" Although he was a little drunk, Yuan Yu still rode the horse very well. He just muttered, "Did I see it wrong?"

Yuan Yu was not wrong.

Because Gu Mingheng also saw it.

Gu Mingheng was also surprised to see a carriage parked in front of his house at this time.

But soon, he thought of something, suddenly sped up, and rode over.

Yuan Yu didn't react for a moment.

He only felt a flash before his eyes, and Gu Mingheng was already some distance away from him.

"Gu Mingheng, what are you doing so fast?" Yuan Yu asked as he chased after him. He seemed to have become much more sober from being drunk. "Who is it? Why are you so anxious?"

On the other side, Ming Jin also felt it.

Suddenly she heard the sound of horse hooves, and as if she had expected it, she looked in the direction of the sound.

Along with Wu Ji's call of "Prince", Ming Jin also saw Gu Mingheng's figure.

Sure enough it was her.

Gu Mingheng was somewhat happy.

After he got off his horse, he asked Ming Jin, "When did you come?"

I didn't expect to meet him again.

When Ming Jin met Gu Mingheng again, he was obviously not as calm and composed as he was the previous times he met him.

Looking at him, she couldn't help but think of what her nanny had said.

She actually had a lot of questions in her heart.

"Gu Mingheng, why do you have to do this?"

"Gu Mingheng, is it worth it?"

"Gu Mingheng, are you tired these years?"

"Gu Mingheng, what would you do if I didn't come back?"

"Gu Mingheng..."

"what happened?"

Gu Mingheng was a little confused when he saw Ming Jin looking at him without saying anything.

Ming Jin withdrew his gaze at this time.

"fine."

she answered.

How could Gu Mingheng believe it? She clearly looked like she was in trouble.

When he was about to ask, Yuan Yu came over, panting: "Gu Mingheng, why are you in such a hurry?"

As he was talking, he saw Mingjin's figure.

"Eh? Princess Changle?" He didn't expect that the owner of the carriage was Mingjin. No wonder Gu Mingheng suddenly came so fast.

"Princess Changle."

Yuan Yu also got off his horse and greeted Ming Jin.

"Second Master Yuan."

Ming Jin also returned the gift to Yuan Yu.

His appearance just happened to make her put her mind at ease.

"I'll go back first and not disturb the prince and the second young master from talking." After Ming Jin said this, he nodded to the two of them and prepared to go back.

Gu Mingheng looked at her back and always felt that there was something strange about her today.

But Yuan Yu is still around.

He didn't dare to ask, so he could only look at her back in silence.

Ming Jin took two steps, then suddenly thought of something and turned back.

"what happened?"

Gu Mingheng had been looking at her, and when he saw her suddenly stop and look back, he immediately asked.

"I want to say a few words to the second young master." Ming Jin explained to Gu Mingheng.

"I?"

Yuan Yu was stunned.

He looked at Mingjin, then at Gu Mingheng, with a puzzled look on his face, but he didn't think much about it: "Princess, please speak."

"I know that the Second Young Master is a romantic man, and there are countless beautiful women who like you."

Being suddenly praised by Ming Jin like this, even the usually shameless Yuan Yu felt a little embarrassed.

"What the princess said..."

Yuan Yu put his hands on the back of his head, feeling very embarrassed.

Ming Jin suddenly changed his tone: "But Sister Xu is my friend. I don't care what the Second Young Master was like in the past. But since you have decided to marry Sister Xu, please take care of your responsibilities and obligations. I can't control so much, but if one day Sister Xu gets angry because of you, then no matter what the Second Young Master's status is, I will stand up for her and support her."

This is all Ming Jin has to say.

She had no expression on her face when she said this, and her voice was stern, which sounded like frost brushing one's face, chilling one's bones.

After saying this, he bowed politely to Yuan Yu, following the rules very well. Yuan Yu was stunned and he was unable to react for a while.

She nodded to Gu Mingheng again, then turned around and left leisurely.
