Chapter 267: Feng Xuanze
Chapter 267: Feng Xuanze
The Prince of Qing only returned in the morning.
Upon his return, he first went to the palace to report on the results of his inspection tour, and it was estimated that he would only be able to return to the mansion in the afternoon.
Previously, the Zhuangzi side had sent a lot of cherries, and Princess Qiwang had already arranged for someone to send a portion to the Qingwang Mansion.
The Prince of Qing had brought Suishu back from Qingzhou, and with the friendship and special relationship between the Prince of Qi and the Prince of Qing, the Princess of Qi would also arrange for people to send over some daily necessities that they had in the Qi Wang Mansion.
The Prince of Qi had just casually listened and hadn't really paid attention.
Upon hearing this, Suiyi quickly replied, "By the afternoon, he should already be back at the mansion."
The Prince of Qi nodded after hearing this, "Alright, then I'll go to the Qing Wang Mansion for dinner tonight."
In truth, he was still somewhat reluctant, but thinking about this matter, he felt that if he left it to others, he still wouldn't be at ease.
Hence, he sought the help of the Prince of Qing.
As the Prince of Qi prepared to leave the mansion, the princess inquired, puzzled by his actions.
After hearing the reason from the Prince of Qi, the princess smiled helplessly, "How could the people below dare to be perfunctory? It's already so late, it's better not to cause a fuss, and moreover, the children will also be returning soon."
Although the two mansions had a good relationship and there was no need to exchange invitations for visits, directly going over wouldn't give rise to any criticism.
However, with the sky already turning dark, going over at this hour...
The Princess of Qi still felt that it wasn't quite appropriate.
Moreover, how could the people below dare to be careless about matters concerning the Qi Wang Mansion?
The king was simply being overly anxious.
The Princess of Qi's words caused the Prince of Qi's initially unsteady resolve to waver, and he immediately expressed, "Then I won't go. If the people below dare to deceive me, I will go to the palace to find my royal brother."
Princess Qi: ...
So, would the people below dare to deceive him?
How could they dare to deceive a master complainer!
The children played and frolicked in the afternoon, tiring themselves out by the evening.
Suishu reluctantly bid farewell to her two little friends, and finally, with a pouting mouth, she was picked up by the Prince of Qi.
Not wanting his little obedient one to be sad and upset, the Prince of Qi quickly comforted her in a gentle voice, "Obedient one, don't be sad. If you really like these two sisters, your father will arrange for them to stay in the mansion for a while."
Although Suishu was reluctant to part with the two sisters, she also understood that they wouldn't want to be separated from their family for too long.
Hence, after the king's words, Suishu shook her head lightly as she lay on the king's shoulder, "No, if they stay, then the sisters will have to be separated from their mother, and they will be very sad."
Just like Suishu, if she were to be separated from her mother, she would definitely cry little golden beans.
Upon hearing this, the Prince of Qi realized that this was indeed the case.
After all, the children were still young, and in the evenings, they would still yearn for the people they were attached to.
Thus, he didn't say anything more and instead diverted the topic by talking about other interesting matters, amusing the children.
After bidding farewell to her two little friends, Suishu, along with the prince, princess, and the rest of the children in the mansion, waited at the mansion's entrance. This was because the two young masters who had been studying outside for a month were about to return.
A short while ago, someone had already come to report that the two young masters had entered the city and that it wouldn't be long before they arrived at the mansion's entrance.
After waiting for a while, two low-key carriages hurried towards the mansion's entrance.
It had been a month since the Princess of Qi and Ren Cefei had last seen their children, and naturally, they were especially concerned and missed them at this moment. Seeing the carriages, the two of them unconsciously took a few steps forward, craning their necks to get a better view.
Soon, the young masters descended from the carriages.
Suishu also curiously stretched her little neck to look.
From the first carriage, a young master with a tall and slender figure and elegant brows and eyes emerged.
The young master was dressed in a long snow-blue robe, his noble bearing both elegant and refined. His demeanor was gentle as he gracefully leapt down from the carriage, his movements fluid and unhurried.
The first thing that caught Suiyi's eye were his eyes—round and familiar.
Suiyi furrowed her brows in thought, trying to recall where she had seen those eyes before.
Then, it clicked.
"Ah, of course!" she exclaimed. "They're just like mine when I look into a mirror!"
Suiyi was well aware that she shared the same unique eye shape as her brother.
No wonder she felt an instant connection with him.
As Feng Xuanze lifted his gaze to meet hers, his eyes seemed to sparkle with warmth, a subtle curve forming at the corners of his lips.
Feng Xuanze had just returned from Qingzhou and was already aware of the new addition to their family. With the close friendship and special bond between the Prince of Qi and the Prince of Qing, it was only natural that he would be informed about his new sister.
However, upon actually laying eyes on Suiyi, he felt a surge of curiosity and interest.
After all, it was only after confirming that she didn't share the same surname as them that he felt truly relieved.
Now, seeing Suiyi in person, his eyes were drawn to the striking similarity between their eye shapes.
Those round eyes, when set against his own elegant brows and refined features, created an entirely different impression.
How intriguing!
Feng Xuanze may have been young, but he prided himself on his discerning eye for talent and beauty.
And in that moment, as he beheld his new sister, he found her eyes particularly captivating.
They were the same shape as his, yet they carried a distinct charm on Suiyi's face—a blend of cuteness and purity that was simply enchanting.
"What captivating eyes," he thought. "So clean and bright, belonging to a child who is innocent and pure at heart."
A slight breeze stirred, causing Feng Xuanze to momentarily lose his graceful composure as he steadied himself with the folding fan in his hand. But he quickly recovered, maintaining the dignified air of a young noble gentleman.
With a gentle smile, he approached, determined to present himself as a warm and friendly older brother.
Feng Xuanze took confident strides forward, but after only a few steps, the ground beneath them trembled slightly.
Feng Xuanze's hand paused, the folding fan nearly slipping from his grasp as he maintained his elegant posture with effort.
However, this slight disturbance didn't catch him off guard.
He paused in his tracks and gracefully turned, his eyes already seeking the source of the vibration.
Suiyi, still in the Prince of Qi's arms, also turned her attention to the source of the disturbance—the second young master who had just alighted from the other carriage.
This brother of hers had a physique akin to a bear!
Every step he took seemed to shake the earth beneath their feet, and yet his movements were surprisingly light and agile for his size.
Feng Xuanyu was two years younger than Feng Xuanze, but he stood taller and carried twice the weight.
With each step, the ground trembled, and Suiyi's eyes widened in surprise and delight as she witnessed this brother who could easily rival a bear in terms of stature.
"Wow," she thought. "A single punch from him could probably take down several opponents!"
Feng Xuanyu had a robust build and an intimidating visage. If it weren't for his round eyes that softened his fierce appearance, one might even mistake him for a bandit if they encountered him on a lonely road.
After alighting from the carriage, he quickened his pace to catch up with Feng Xuanze, but he intentionally maintained a respectful distance, positioning himself half a step behind his older brother. Slowing his pace, he revealed a mouthful of gleaming white teeth and greeted, "Greetings, Big Brother!"
