After the rebirth, I was picked up by the prince

In the next few days, Song Jiqi did as he said before, and came to see Qi Zizhen almost every day, most of the time to invite him to walk around in the palace.

And Qi Zizhen would agree every time, and even when Song Jiqiyue was about to die, he would also be invited to go.

At first, Song Yaoxu always felt a little uncomfortable, because Song Jiqi could easily get closer to the person he had been trying to get along with for nearly a month.

But later, thinking that Qi Zizhen had a closer relationship with Song Jiqi in his previous life, he felt that it seemed natural. Instead, he began to wonder if it was too selfish for him to bring him to the East Palace.

He died in an unjust case in his previous life, but was trapped in a small world by the person in charge of the case after his rebirth.

He began to hesitate, should he let Qi Zizhen go back?

Just when Song Yaoxu was hesitating, Cui Liang knocked on the door to announce that the Tenth Prince had arrived and was currently playing with Lingning in the courtyard.

He put aside these messy thoughts for the time being, put down the pen and ink in his hand and got up, intending to take a look in the yard first.

In the courtyard, Qi Zizhen sat on the recliner that Cui Liang hadn't taken back after he moved out, watching the child play with the cat with grass.

According to his previous knowledge, Ling Chao insisted on a balance between work and rest in the management of the prince's schoolwork. There would be one day off for bathing every month, and there would be three to fifteen days off during festivals.

Today, the tenth prince came to the East Palace, probably because he came to play with his elder brother on the holiday.

Qi Zizhen was not interested in this kind of brotherly respect, he just sat on the chair as usual, as if he was looking in the direction of the child and the cat, but he was actually lost in a daze.

After a while, Song Yaoxu's figure appeared on the corridor.

"Brother Prince!" When Song Shi saw someone, he dropped the grass roots and flew towards Song Yaoxu. Qi Zizhen was startled by his sudden joyful voice.

When he came back to his senses, he saw Song Yaoxu was rubbing Song Shi's head kindly, and said with a smile, "Xiao Shizao, how is your homework going?"

Song Shi's head drooped immediately, and he protested in a low voice: "It's a rare holiday, the prince brother has to ask these questions..."

"..."

Then there were some conversations between brothers to exchange feelings, Qi Zizhen didn't bother to listen, let himself go and continue to be distracted, until Song Shi ran to him at some point.

"Brother Qi!" Song Shi swooped up to Qi Zizhen, looking excited, "Brother Qi, shall we go out of the palace together? Xiaoshi wants to go out to play! Brother Prince said that as long as Brother Qi also goes can!"

After finishing speaking, she looked expectant again, only Qi Zizhen's figure was reflected purely in her eyes that seemed to be shining brightly.

Qi Zizhen lowered his eyes to avoid his gaze, and said indifferently: "I would like to follow His Highness's instructions."

Song Shi only wanted to go out to play in the palace, so he happily ran back to Song Yaoxu to report.

Song Yaoxu helplessly patted the ends of his hair to comfort him, then walked up to Qi Zizhen with a gentle smile: "The weather is fine today, it is a good day to go out, if Zizhen is willing to go, then go back to the room and change clothes , and leave later."

Qi Zizhen only said "Follow Your Highness's instructions" and returned to his room to change back into his usual black clothes. When he came out again, Song Yaoxu and Song Shi also changed into their normal clothes.

Song Yaoxu was still dressed in white, with a few clusters of flower and bird patterns embroidered on the hem of his clothes, which complemented his gentle temperament and made him look quite bookish.

When he saw Qi Zizhen coming out, his eyes were full of smiles, as clear as a spring spring, clean and soft as if it could wash away all dirt.

"Going out will expose your identity, so don't call me Your Highness." Song Yaoxu raised his hand and patted his head, "If you don't want to get close with someone, then call me Young Master."

Qi Zizhen didn't react too much to an unfamiliar warm touch from the tip of his hair, and said indifferently, "I would like to follow your orders."

Song Shi was still young and didn't think too much, so he held Qi Zizhen's hand with a smile: "Brother Qi, can you call me Xiaoshi?"

When the child smiled, his eyes were slightly curved, like crescent moons, very cute.

After Qi Zishan's hypocrisy in the previous life, now Qi Zizhen's attitude towards children will not soften much, he nodded as he said, with an indifferent expression: "Yes."

The prince's once-a-month rest and bathing is very precious to a child like Song Shi, and the three of them didn't stay where they were for long, and called Cui Liang to go out of the palace together.

Song Shi came early, after they left the palace, it was only the beginning of the year, and it was the bustling time in the market.

"Brother Xu, look over there!" Song Shi pulled Song Yaoxu, his face was full of joy unique to children, and his eyes sparkled, he led him to a candied haws stand.

Qi Zizhen followed them silently, neither far nor near, neither disturbing the harmony of their brothers nor losing track of them.

Surrounded by the cries of small stalls and vendors, in front of him is a seemingly ordinary brother getting along. He is in the midst of all the excitement, as if he is out of this world and wandering alone.

At this moment, a bunch of red candied haws suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

"For you." Song Yaoxu had a smile on the corner of his mouth, his expression was gentle and natural, and he seemed a little quiet and peaceful amidst the noise.

Qi Zizhen lowered his eyes, thanked in a low voice and respectful, took the candied haws, and lightly bit one of them under Song Yaoxu's sight.

The sweet syrup was wrapped in sour, and it was crispy and cold after one bite. The taste and taste were better than those he had eaten in this world.

He wanted to eat one for etiquette, but before he knew it, half of it was gone.

Seeing him eating, Song Yaoxu chuckled lightly: "Xiaoshi said this tastes good, so I wanted you to try it, as long as you like it."

After he finished speaking, he didn't continue, and turned around to continue wandering in the market with Song Shi.

Qi Zizhen still followed behind them, his expression and demeanor were the same as before, except that there was an extra empty lottery in his hand.

The bazaar in the capital city is a novel scene for the prince who doesn't go out of the palace often, Song Shi took pleasure in pulling Song Yaoxu around, and then Qi Zizhen, who was absent-minded, couldn't find them unknowingly.

He paused among the crowd and looked around, but he couldn't see Song Yaoxu, couldn't find Song Shi, and there was no sign of Cui Liang.

In his previous life, he often followed Song Jiqi around the capital, and he was very familiar with the roads in the capital.So he wasn't worried, and if he didn't find anyone after walking around the market, he went straight back to the East Palace.

But he didn't go half way, instead he met Song Jiqi first.

"Zizhen?" Song Jiqi looked quite surprised, "Why are you here alone?"

Qi Zizhen's attitude towards Song Jiqi was obviously a lot more relaxed. After greeting him politely, he replied softly: "I went out of the palace with His Highness, and I got separated at the moment. I plan to go back to the East Palace when I can't find anyone later."

"That's it..." Song Jiqi frowned and thought for a while, "Now it's lunch time, maybe they're going to have lunch too. Why don't I go to Jixian Tower with you? It just happens to be used together lunch."

Qi Zizhen didn't really want to find someone, so he nodded and said, "Okay."

Then he followed Song Jiqi side by side and walked in another direction.

On the other side, Song Yaoxu, who was worried about looking for someone, witnessed the whole process.

He held Song Shi in one hand, and held a small oiled paper package in the other. The joint between the oiled paper and his knuckles was wrinkled badly.

"Brother Xu, don't we go up to find Brother Qi?" Song Shi shook the hand he held with Song Yaoxu innocently, "The candy bought for Brother Qi won't taste good after a long time!"

Song Yaoxu came back to his senses, slightly relaxed his hand holding the oiled paper wrap, and said with a smile, "Brother Qi meets a good friend, so we won't bother you. Is there anything else Xiao Shi wants to go?"

Song Shi and Qi Zizhen didn't have much contact, so he didn't say anything after hearing this, and happily pointed to the other side and said, "Xiao Shi wants to go there!"

"Okay, it's up to you." Song Yaoxu smiled softly, and led Song Shi to leave in the opposite direction.
