When Xiao Bi came to Qifeng Palace, Wei Luo had already dressed up and returned to the side hall.

Princess Anyang, who was less than two years old, also woke up and was sitting on Xiao Heng's lap, babbling to her mother and brother.

Wei Luo was so happy that his eyes lit up when his little aunt Jiu arrived.

Trying to calm down the excitement in his heart, he stepped forward with steady steps and saluted Xiao Bi: "Hello, Auntie Xiaojiu."

Xiao Bi followed his example and returned the gift very respectfully: "I am here to see His Highness the Crown Prince."

Wei Luo frowned. Aunt Jiu had become the captain of the Qilin Guards. How could she become like those ministers and no longer interesting at all?

Xiao Bi chuckled, stretched out her hand and pinched his face that still had some baby fat: "Xiao Luoluo, you are only a little older, why do you make yourself look like a little old man?"

Although Wei Luo was very dissatisfied with the metaphor of "little old man", seeing how lively Xiao Bi was, his little mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Forget it, because Aunt Xiaojiu is so interesting, I won’t argue with her!

He took Xiao Bi's hand and said, "Xiaojiu Aunt, come and play Shuanglu with me."

Xiao Bi smiled and said: "Okay, but we have to agree in advance that we won't cry if we lose."

Princess Anyang on the side screamed anxiously when she saw Auntie Xiaojiu ignoring her.

Xiao Heng patted the little daughter in his arms: "Little Aunt Jiu didn't come to Qifeng Palace for half a month, and any of us are angry!"

As if she could understand her mother's words, Princess Anyang threw the little cloth tiger in her hand towards Xiao Bi: "Tiger... bites..."

She was small and weak, and the cloth tiger was only thrown a foot or so before it fell to the ground, but everyone in the side hall was amused.

"You little rascal..." Xiao Bi picked up the little tiger with a grimace and brought it close to Anyang's plump face: "Ah wu... the little tiger bit Anyang..."

Princess Anyang got into her mother's arms and giggled non-stop.

Xiao Bi saw that her little face was so delicate that it looked like she could squeeze out water, so she leaned over and kissed her hard.

"Sister, I see Anyang getting fatter and fatter?"

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Heng patted her hand: "Our Anyang is much thinner than her Aunt Jiu back then!"

Xiao Bi pursed her lips and admitted that she was a fat girl when she was a child, but Anyang was not thin at all, okay?

Xiao Heng suppressed a laugh and pointed to the nuns on the side: "If you don't believe me, ask the nuns what you did on the day I got married?"

Xiao Bi raised her eyebrows and asked the nun closest to her: "Aunt Shen, what have I done?"

Aunt Shen smiled and said: "On the day of the Queen's wedding, the old slaves were busy dressing the Queen, and the princess accidentally climbed under the dressing table.

Your little body got stuck in the queen's dressing stool, and it took a lot of effort to get it out..."

Xiao Bi: "..."

The dressing stool is still in my eldest sister's old room, and she has sat on it several times.

She remembered that the stool was quite wide. She was fat when she was three years old, but she was so fat?!

"Xiao Jiuyi——" Seeing that everyone was just talking and laughing, Wei Luo shook Xiao Bi's arm hard.

Xiao Bi grinned: "We are going to fight Shuanglu, and we will never listen to rumors!"

The crowd burst into laughter again.

Half an hour later, Xiao Bi had three victories in three battles, and Wei Luo said with a drooped face: "Xiao Jiuyi, I can't stand anymore."

Xiao Bi raised her eyebrows: "Xiao Luoluo is giving in now?"

"No!" Wei Luo puffed up her little chest: "Xiaojiu Auntie has been learning the art of war since she was a child. It's not a shame to lose to you. I will continue to work hard and let's fight again next time we meet!"

"Well done!" Xiao Bi patted his little shoulder: "Xiaojiu Aunt believes in you, sooner or later you will definitely win!"

Wei Luo looked at Xiao Heng: "Mother, my father has asked me to go to the imperial study before dinner. It's getting late, so it's time for me to leave."

Xiao Heng pulled him in front of him, trimmed his hair and straightened his robe: "No matter what you learn, you must do it step by step. Don't be greedy for too much, let alone burn out your body. Let me eat whatever you want."

Someone come and tell the Queen Mother."

"My child, remember. Thank you for your mother's concern." He saluted Xiao Heng and then said to Xiao Bi, "Xiaojiu Aunt, I'm leaving first."

Watching Wei Luo leave, Xiao Heng sighed: "Xiao Jiu, Luo'er has worked too hard."

Xiao Bi said: "I'm still thinking about teaching Xiao Luoluo some self-defense skills. When you say that, I don't dare to speak."

Xiao Heng put her daughter into Xiao Bi's arms: "You still have a lot of things to do of your own. Do I feel sorry for Luo'er's hard work, but don't feel sorry for you?"

Xiao Bi hugged her heavy niece: "Sister, I have something to say to you."

Jimei and others bowed and retreated.

Xiao Heng said: "You want to ask about the Xin family?"

Xiao Bi shook his head: "The Xin family has nothing to do with me. I want to ask about my father and mother."

Xiao Heng's expression froze slightly: "Why do you suddenly think of asking this?"

"Sister, after I was injured that day, Mother Bei couldn't bear my questioning and told me some things from the past."

"Mother Bei will never lie to you. Now that you've heard what she said, what else do you still don't know?"

"Mother Bei regards me as her daughter, but after all, she is not from the Duke's palace.

As the saying goes, family scandals should not be publicized. There are some things that she doesn’t know herself, so how can she explain them clearly to me?"

Xiao Heng pursed her lips: "Xiaojiu, eldest sister knows that you have always been worried about your mother's death, but it's really not your fault."

Xiao Bi stared at her: "It's not my fault, but whose fault is it?"

Everyone knows that my mother saved the emperor and the prince during the Yongwang Rebellion, so I became a princess with a fiefdom, and even got the imperial edict of independent marriage.

There are also rumors that the reason why my brother-in-law is so kind to me is actually to repay my mother's kindness.

But I couldn't understand that my mother was pregnant with Liujia, my second uncle was just a scholar, and there were a lot of women and children in the house. My fifth brother, my sixth sister, and my aunt were only two years old, and my seventh brother and my eighth brother were still in their infancy.

Coupled with the fact that the Queen and the Crown Prince were involved, one can imagine how critical the situation was at that time.

My grandfather led the troops to quell the rebellion and was not in the capital, so where did our father go?"

Xiao Heng's expression changed slightly: "What exactly do you want to ask?"

Xiao Bi shook her head: "Sister, you don't need to have so many scruples, my relationship with my father is not that close.

In my mind, he is not even as important as my brother-in-law and second uncle."

Xiao Bi's face became increasingly bleak, and after a while she said: "Xiao Jiu, do you hate your father?"

Xiao Bi sneered: "It's just an unimportant person. I don't hate him, but I despise him."

Xiao Heng smiled bitterly and gradually clenched his fists.

The so-called deep love and deep hatred.

Mother had told her back then not to let Xiaojiu have too much contact with his father.

After all, paper cannot contain the fire, Xiaojiu will know the truth sooner or later.

Xiaojiu and his father don't have a deep relationship, so their hatred may be shallow, and they won't do anything treacherous.

But does the mother know how much pain her sensible and well-behaved eldest daughter has suffered over the years?
