Chapter 327
Zhiyue was so angry that her face turned red. She clenched her fists and said in a soft and sticky voice: "My brother can't give it to you!"
She has always been soft-tempered and gentle, so this was a rare time for her to get angry, but there was no imposingness at all.
Zhiyao patted her back to comfort her, then looked at the unruly girl opposite, who was the second prince's cousin: "This is my brother, he is a person and cannot be given to others"
"Why can't I give—"
This was suddenly interrupted by Ruirui. His clear voice rang in everyone's ears, full of curiosity: "What do you want me to do? Don't you have your own brother?"
The bad-tempered little girl suddenly quieted down.
The atmosphere at the scene fell silent for a moment.
After a while, the little girl gritted her teeth and said, "I have it!"
Then he started talking to other people around him without even looking over here.
It’s not that she doesn’t have a younger brother, but the one-year-old brother in the mansion is closely protected by his biological mother, Concubine Jiang. He is the treasure of the mansion.
Even though she was spoiled by her mother, she knew that she couldn't touch that little brother, otherwise she would be the one in trouble.
Taking in the whole scene, Lady Liu's eyes moved and finally her gaze fell on the little guy who was busying around.
Is this the most talented child in Prince Zhao’s Mansion?
She curled her lips slightly, with an ambiguous smile at the corners of her mouth.
Soon it won't be.
At this time, someone jokingly mentioned that they had never heard of Minister Liu's little daughter, and that this was really a good opportunity for their good son.
This statement was apparently made in jest, but in reality it was doubting the authenticity of this woman's identity.
You suddenly say that this person, whom you have never heard of before, is your daughter. Does that mean she is your daughter?
Minister Liu explained slowly, "To be honest, my daughter was weak and sickly when she was born.
Fortunately, the master predicted that he needed to find a quiet place to recuperate and not see outsiders for twenty years before his fate was resolved.
Now that the child is back, I think she is getting old, and it is time to find a good family for her!"
"Haha, so that's how it is. Lord Liu is truly a kind father."
"It is Lord Liu who is concerned about the marriage of his children. My children are taken care of by my old mother and my wife. I don't have the patience to care about that."
"It was the same with my previous children, but now I only have this little daughter left, so I have to worry about her more."
After dealing with those enthusiastic colleagues, Minister Liu quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and glanced at his little daughter casually.
The other person gave him an admiring look.
Minister Liu immediately looked away, not daring to look again.
Miss Liu walked slowly to the children, bent down and greeted Ruirui in a friendly manner.
"Your name is Ruirui, right?"
Rarity stopped talking to her sisters and all three children looked at her.
Zhiyao, as the eldest sister among the three, stood up and said, "Miss Liu, what do you want to talk to us about?"
She pointed to King Zhao and said, "My father is there."
Then he pointed to the princess and said, "My mother is over there. If you have anything, you can discuss it with them."
Miss Liu continued to smile. She moved her fingers and a small gray-brown insect slid down from the edge of her sleeve.
"Little Princess, after all, I almost became a mother and son with the child behind you, so I was wondering if I could say a few words to him?"
After that, she added: "After all, when we meet again in the future, I will be your elder."
Zhiyao hesitated now, not knowing whether to agree or not. It shouldn't be a big deal if it's just a few words, right?
After all, what this person said was right, the other party must enter the mansion.
Suddenly, a milky voice exclaimed.
"Hey, why is there a bug here?"
When a few people looked over, they saw Ruirui taking one step forward. Under everyone's gaze, he even twisted the front of his foot deliberately.
After making sure that he had used enough force, Ruirui tentatively lifted his foot slowly, and on the ground lay a gray-brown, dead insect.
Half of the insect's body was broken into pieces.
In an instant, Miss Liu and Zhiyao exclaimed at the same time.
Because the insect was less than an inch away from Zhiyao's heel, if she wasn't careful, it might crawl onto her.
Seeing her sister so scared, Ruirui smiled and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, sister, I'm here. I'm not afraid of bugs. I know there are a lot of bugs here, and I've been watching them."
At this time, the princess and King Zhao arrived almost at the same time.
"what happened?"
Zhiyao's face turned pale. Seeing her parents coming over, she felt relieved: "Just now, just now a bug tried to crawl onto me. It was so scary!"
When the princess heard this, she was instantly heartbroken.
He quickly pulled his daughter over to check up and down: "How is it now? Prince, there are too many bugs here, why don't we let the children go back first, girls are most afraid of bugs."
King Zhao asked his daughter with concern: "Where is the bug?"
"Luckily the bug was stepped on and killed by Ruirui, it was almost crawling onto me."
"Trampled to death?"
King Zhao looked towards the place where the insect corpse lay, his eyes sharpened, this place was too close to Zhiyao.
He said in a deep voice: "After all, this is outside, and insects are inevitable. You should go back and rest. I will ask someone to watch over you."
The princess was relieved: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will have someone send the children back right away. Ruirui, you should also go back with your sisters first and don't run around."
"Sure!"
Ruirui had no objection, it wasn't fun here anyway.
After they left, King Zhao looked at Miss Liu and said, "I guess I scared you just now."
Miss Liu shook her head gently, and the tassel pendant on her hairpin moved with it, making her look more playful and lively.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine."
"That's good. If there is nothing else, I will go first."
King Zhao turned and left, and Miss Liu shouted bravely.
"My lord, stay!"
King Zhao turned around and asked politely, "Miss Liu, what's the matter?"
Miss Liu said softly but firmly, "My Lord, if...if you don't like me,
After entering the palace, I will not bother the prince too much, I just ask the prince to give me a place to stay. "
Hearing this, King Zhao was very surprised and said: "If Miss Liu is unwilling, you should have a good talk with Minister Liu and not treat marriage as a joke."
"I will definitely not make things difficult for Miss Liu."
Little Miss Liu shook her head, and in the blink of an eye, tears welled up in her eyes. She said in a sad tone, "It doesn't matter who I marry. Daddy would never let a woman like me stay at home.
At my age, many people would have already become mothers. Having a daughter like me at home would bring shame to my father."
"Forget it, it doesn't matter who I marry. I know that Your Majesty has a good character and is always tolerant and generous. I only hope that Your Majesty can protect me a little, I dare not ask for more."
As she said this, Miss Liu was about to kneel down and beg for mercy.
