718 Bring Dabao Home, The Duel Begins (2)

Bai Qianli glanced at Nangong Yan and persuaded, “Don’t be angry with him. If you want to blame someone, blame me. I shouldn’t have told him his background so suddenly.”

In the past, Nangong Yan would not have agreed with him. However, at this point, these things no longer mattered to her.

Nangong Yan said, “He’s already so old, but he’s still throwing a tantrum like a child. Dabao is even more sensible than him.”

Bai Qianli paused. “Dabao… is that child? Is he Yan Jiuchao’s flesh and blood?”

Nangong Yan said coldly, “Yan Jiuchao’s eldest son is deeply loved by my father. My father gave him the heirloom seal.”

Bai Qianli was surprised.

The Emperor actually doted on this child so much. Could it be that he wanted to make him the heir?

Bai Qianli thought about how the child had never cried since he came here. When he saw strangers, he was not reserved or afraid. From these two points alone, he was indeed not an ordinary child.

“If Yan Jiuchao knows this place, will he come here?” Bai Qianli did not hide the fact that Yan Jiuchao had been here from Nangong Yan.

Nangong Yan said coldly, “So what if they came? If one comes, I’ll let Asura kill one!”

“Dabao ~”

“Dabao ~”

“Dabao, where are you?” Xiaobao held Er’bao’s hand and pushed open the door of a room.

The two little fellows stuck their heads in and looked around. They were most afraid of the dark, but in order to find Dabao, they still mustered their courage and walked in.

“Dabao, come out~” Xiaobao bent down and looked under the bed.

“Dabao, you’re not allowed to hide anymore. We admit defeat.” Er’bao opened the cabinet.

The two of them searched the room, but Dabao was not there. Hence, they walked out hand in hand and continued to search room by room.

Zi Su had just washed the dishes and came out. When she saw them loitering under the porch, she hurriedly walked over and squatted down. “Aiya, Little Masters, aren’t you asleep? Why are you out again? You haven’t put on your shoes. The ground is so cold!”

“We can’t sleep,” Xiaobao said.

“Looking for Dabao,” Er’bao said.

Zi Su’s heart ached. She did not know how to explain it to them, so she could only repeat the lines she had prepared earlier. “Didn’t we say that Dabao went to the palace to accompany Great-Grandma?”

“Why isn’t he back yet?” Xiaobao asked.

“He…” Zi Su said embarrassedly. “He’ll be back in two days.”

“Why aren’t you taking us there? Does Great-Grandma not like us?” Xiaobao asked again.

Zi Su was stumped by these words. What did Madam tell her? She had forgotten the words after the two children joked around!

“Of course Great-Grandma likes you, but we also like you. If you all leave, we’ll be sad too.” Prince Yan appeared in time.

Zi Su heaved a sigh of relief and stood up to bow. “Your Highness.”

“You can leave,” Prince Yan said.

“Yes.” Zi Su left as she was told.

Prince Yan walked up to them with two pairs of small tiger shoes. He squatted down, picked up their little feet, and put them on.

Prince Yan led them back to the house and fetched hot water. He wiped their feet and let them lie under the soft blanket.

Er’bao and Xiaobao reluctantly accepted the fact that the three brothers were not together because they were accompanying different elders, but they still missed Dabao very much.

“When will Dabao be back?” Er’bao asked.

They had asked this question no less than a hundred times, and they had answered it no less than a hundred times. Prince Yan patiently said, “In two days.”

Xiaobao counted with his fingers. “Two days. We agreed.”

“Okay.” Prince Yan smiled and nodded. He tucked them in and patted their little shoulders to coax them to sleep.

Sigh.

The two little fellows sighed in their hearts. They really missed Dabao.

In the bamboo forest on the other side, Dabao had also laid down. He did not have anyone to coax him. Only a mute slave entered the room and extinguished the light for him. He took off his shoes clumsily and climbed onto the bed in the dark. He placed himself in the middle of the bed and pulled the blanket over him.

He curled up his little body.

He rubbed his reddened eyes.

Dabao is not cold.

Dabao is not afraid.

Dabao won’t cry.

Dabao had to be strong.

… .

After Er’bao and Xiaobao fell asleep, Prince Yan called Fu Ling and Shadow Six over and asked them to guard the two of them while he went to Xiao Zhenting’s courtyard.

“Are you looking for the Marshal? He’s not around. He went to buy food for me,” Shangguan Yan said as she looked at Prince Yan, who had visited in the middle of the night.

Ever since the two of them met, they had been at odds. It was difficult to imagine that Prince Yan would take the initiative to visit Xiao Zhenting.
