When the roll was rolled up, there was residual warmth on both sides of her body. She touched the left side, then the right side, and then poked her head out of the quilt in surprise, all the drowsiness was aroused.
"Mom!" She looked at Mr. Lin who was sitting at the dressing table combing her hair and asked excitedly, "Did Daddy come back last night?"
Mrs. Lin smiled and nodded, and then said softly: "You can sleep on the bed for a while, and I will go get you dressed later."
"Great!"
Juan Juan was lying on the bedside, watching her mother dressing up with big eyes. Whenever Mrs. Lin looked back at her, Juan Juan would show a big smile, and then seriously praise, "Mother is so beautiful!"
So the whole morning, the corner of Lin's mouth did not move.
Who can say no to a little guy who keeps telling you how beautiful you are while you're dressing up?
After dinner, Juanjuan sat watching Lin's embroidery and felt a little bored, so he eagerly asked, "Mom, let's go out and play!"
Lin paused while threading the needle, then turned back to her with a smile and asked, "What's the matter? Do you feel bored staying with mother by Juan Juan's side?"
"No, no!" Although Juan Juan did feel a little bored, he was afraid that his mother would be sad, so he quickly shook his head, "Juan Juan is very happy to be by my mother's side!"
Mrs. Lin felt a little guilty, but for the sake of Juan Juan's safety, she suppressed her rising unbearability, touched Juan Juan's head and said warmly:
"Then Juan Juan, just stay with your mother, okay? Mother will be very happy with Juan Juan by your side."
"Yeah!" Juanjuan nodded, and put two soft little hands on Mrs. Lin's arms, "Juanjuan doesn't want to go out to play~ Juanjuan stays with mother!"
Lin touched her head gently, with a bit of guilt in her eyes.
Juanjuan played with a bunch of toys alone for a while. It wasn't until a maid came over and said that the young prince Jiang Sui'an was here, that she ran over happily.
"Mom, Juan Juan is going to play with the little unfortunate guy!"
Mrs. Lin smiled and nodded. As long as the two children played in the yard, nothing would happen.
In the front hall, Jiang Sui'an was wearing a tailored sky blue brocade dress. He was taller and thinner than before. When he smiled, two dimples appeared on his rosy cheeks.
"Jujuan, you're here."
Seeing Juan Juan walking slowly over, Jiang Sui'an quickly stood up and walked over, stretched out his hand and bent down, "Let me hug you."
"No~" Juanjuan shook his head, "Juanjuan has to walk on his own!"
Jiang Sui'an stepped back and stood beside her, "Then I will support you."
"Why didn't Ni go to school?"
Juanjuan finally sat on the chair through her own efforts. She rested for a while and then started chatting with him.
Although Jiang Sui'an is a few years older than Juan Juan, he still acts like a younger brother in front of Juan Juan.
"My father said he won't let me go to the palace these days, and I don't know why."
The two children were chatting and talking about playing. Juan Juan swayed his calves and held his chin in boredom.
"Juanjuan is so bored staying at home~" The eldest brother went to some poetry meeting again, the second brother was not at home, the third brother and the fourth brother were studying in school, mother was embroidering in the yard, and even Xiaobai didn't know how to run away Where has she gone? There is no one to play with her.
Jiang Sui'an was also bored. He suddenly thought of something and suggested with bright eyes: "By the way, Juanjuan, let's go find my father together."
Juanjuan looked at him curiously.
Jiang Sui'an whispered in her ear, "I know where my father is. He went to the Ministry of Punishment today, and I also know the way!"
[The Ministry of Punishment...is it a place where prisoners are held? 】
Juan Juan nodded expectantly, his eyes full of yearning, "Jian Juan hasn't been there yet~ Juan Juan wants to go!"
Jiang Sui'an held her little hand and said to the guard he brought with him: "If someone asks you later, just say that I took Juan Juan to the Ministry of Justice to play."
The two children walked out without disturbing any of the servants of Shangshu Mansion.
After leaving the Shangshu Mansion, the two got into the carriage and told the coachman their destination.
Standing at the entrance of the Punishment Department, Jiang Sui'an noticed that the Punishment Department seemed to be very busy today. Many adults were walking around nervously, but no one noticed him or Juanjuan.
The two stood at the door for a while, and finally someone with a hurried look recognized Jiang Sui'an.
"Little prince? Why are you here?"
The man held several scrolls of bamboo slips in his arms and stopped in front of Jiang Sui'an.
"I'm looking for my father. Do you know where he is?" Jiang Sui'an asked.
"His Royal Highness King Yi..." He stretched out his hand to point Jiang Sui'an in the direction. He couldn't take him there because he was still busy.
"His Royal Highness Prince Yi is supposed to be interrogating the prisoners there, and the subordinate has to deliver something to the Lord Assistant, so there is no way to accompany the young prince there."
Jiang Sui'an nodded, "Thank you for showing me the way. We can just go by ourselves. You can go and do your work."
After the man left, Jiang Sui'an took Juan Juan and walked in the direction he pointed.
There were people coming and going on the road, one big and one small looking everywhere as they walked.
Soon, the two little guys deviated from their original route and somehow turned to a remote place.
After noticing that there were fewer people here, Juanjuan stopped where he was.
"What's wrong Juanjuan?" Jiang Sui'an also stopped and asked her.
Juanjuan looked at the surroundings blankly, his mouth slightly flattened, "You went to the wrong place!"
When the two little guys turned around, they could no longer remember the way they came.
Juanjuan sat down on the ground, his big eyes watery, a little aggrieved.
She was so tired from leaving...
Jiang Suian felt extremely guilty and knelt down to comfort her.
At this moment, Juan Juan suddenly heard a familiar voice. Her starry eyes lit up slightly and she looked at Jiang Sui'an with surprise, "Juan Juan heard Daddy's voice!"
In a nearby room, a middle-aged man wearing prison uniform had messy hair and a clean face. His red eyes were staring at the two people sitting at the top.
King Yi touched the torture instruments arranged in the room and said with a half-smile, "Master Wen, are you still not going to say anything?"
Yu Xiheng was sitting at the desk, with his legs crossed, holding a corner of the file with his slender white fingers, his posture casual.
"Master Wen, please think carefully before answering. You also know His Highness King Yi's temper."
Of these two people, one is a good person and the other is a bad person.
Wen Ruoqi spat hard, with blood in his saliva, "You've all found out, and you're still asking me what I'm doing!"
The tall figure of King Yi approached, bent down and pulled up his messy hair, speaking in a sinister tone.
"Don't pretend to be confused. There's no way such a big account can be reconciled. If you tell me, you can die more easily."
Wen Ruoqi closed his eyes, looking determined to die.
Yu Xiheng's pale and handsome face was expressionless, and his voice was as cold as ever, "Does Mr. Wen have to see blood before he speaks?"
