Chapter 416: What's Your Opinion of Qilang?
Chapter 416: What's Your Opinion of Qilang?
Elder Lord Lu expressed that he couldn't quite understand the situation at Jingyangzi Manor.
However, regarding the matter of harming his grandson, he couldn't just let it go.
Therefore, he planned to submit a memorial tomorrow!
Duke Ling and Prince Xing expressed their gratitude, and knowing that Lu Yinsong's condition had stabilized and his mind had become much more open, they were both delighted.
Considering that Lu Yinsong was still bedridden and recuperating, they didn't disturb him.
Suixui handed a small box of beautiful pearls to Lu Yinxiao, "Qige, please give this to Sige for me and thank him for protecting me."
These pearls were carefully selected by Suixui from her treasure trove last night after hearing that she wanted to express her gratitude to Lu Yinsong.
They were pearls that the little girl found beautiful and elegant.
While Lu Yinsong might not need these, who wouldn't appreciate the sincere intentions of a child?
The pearls were hidden inside the box, not visible from the outside.
Lu Yinxiao was curious, but he politely refrained from asking more. He took the box and whispered, "Rest assured, Mingxi Little Sister, I'll personally deliver it to Sige."
Suixui thanked Pretty Qige and chatted with him for a while.
Elder Lord Lu wanted to invite them to stay for dinner, but neither Prince Xing nor Duke Ling showed any intention of staying. After a polite exchange of refusals, Elder Lord Lu personally saw the two princes off.
Suixui bid farewell to Lu Yinxiao with reluctance.
Lu Yinxiao thought for a moment and handed his folding fan to Suixui, "It's hot on the road, use this to fan yourself, it'll make you feel more comfortable."
He was just looking for an excuse to give the child a little toy to cheer her up.
Suixui was indeed delighted.
This fan of Qige's was very pretty, with a landscape painting on it, and the edges were adorned with gold powder, making it look extremely luxurious and eye-catching to a child.
Suixui had stared at it for a few seconds earlier, and Lu Yinxiao might have noticed.
So, just before Suixui left, he gave her the fan.
Suixui happily accepted the gift and said sweetly, "Thank you, Pretty Qige."
Lu Yinxiao didn't mind, and when Suixui thanked him for being pretty, he smiled and replied, "Take your time, Mingxi Little Sister. Come over to play when you're free."
Suixui nodded seriously.
Duke Ling was pleased to see the two children getting along well.
Prince Xing, on the other side, watched with a thoughtful expression.
On the way back, Prince Xing thought for a moment and asked in a low voice, "What do you think of Qilang?"
Duke Ling was puzzled, "Ah? Qige? He's a good kid. What's the matter?"
Prince Xing gestured with his eyes in the direction of Suixui, "What do you think of him?"
Duke Ling immediately straightened up, "Not good at all. Smelly and unpleasant, not nice in the slightest."
Prince Xing: ...
But you didn't say that just now!
After having a daughter, Duke Ling seemed to have developed a dislike for all the male children in the capital.
However, compared to others, Lu Yinxiao was already a decent one among them.
After venting his anger, Duke Ling thought for a moment before saying, "We'll have to wait and see. What about Nan Ge'er from Duke of Cheng Manor? Wasn't he good before? Such a fair and well-behaved child, but look at him now? Even dogs shake their heads at the sight of him."
After hearing this, Prince Xing thought about the likable Ren Zinan from his childhood and fell into deep thought and silence.
Prince Xing also cherished his daughter, and he had asked about Qilang just now because he saw how well Suixui and Lu Yinxiao got along.
Moreover, he had not taken good care of himself over the years on the battlefield, and he didn't know how many more years he had left.
He always thought of making early arrangements for Suixui's future.
To pave the path of her life, making it smooth and perfect.
Now it seems, they were too hasty.
Let's see how it unfolds.
Duke Ling was unaware of Prince Xing's thoughts and continued to mutter, "It seems that Seventh Brother is not bad, and even Dai Ge from the He family is good. He's just a bit talkative, but his intentions are not bad. But the He family is the Empress's family, and I don't want to get involved with them. We can just live peacefully and harmoniously as princes, and no one dares to provoke us. Why get entangled in their messy affairs? So, Dai Ge is not suitable."
"Actually, the Song family's young masters are all good. The Meng family is also fine, and they are our cousins, so it's easier for us to respond."
...
After some serious contemplation, Duke Ling concluded, "Oh, it's really difficult to marry off a daughter!"
Prince Xing, listening from the side, couldn't help but remind him, "It's not up to you, Your Highness will have a say in this matter."
Duke Ling: ...!
How can that be?
He doesn't agree!
If His Highness dares to intervene and decides who she should marry, he will cry if he doesn't like the choice.
Hmph!
Anyway, His Highness has no control over him.
It's just a matter of a child's marriage, not a major issue. In the end, His Highness will definitely follow his wishes.
Duke Ling thought with a hint of pride in his heart.
Suixie didn't care what the adults were discussing, and she couldn't understand it anyway.
At this moment, she was sharing her new fan with Xiang Gugu.
The fan's edges were outlined with gold thread, and the center featured a simple landscape painting. With just a few strokes, it depicted a picturesque scene of mountains and water, with two birds flying in the sky.
On the water, there were two ducks that looked quite plump.
The more Suixie looked at it, the more she liked it, and finally, she couldn't help but exclaim, "This fan is so beautiful!"
Duke Ling, listening nearby, couldn't help but smile. Looking at the signature on the fan, he said with a smile, "That was painted by your Seventh Brother himself. Your Seventh Brother is quite talented."
In the capital, not to mention peers, even those a few years older than him couldn't match Lu Yinsiao in terms of knowledge.
Moreover, Lu Yinsiao was multi-talented, excelling in both academics and martial arts.
He demonstrated exceptional skills in painting, calligraphy, and even numerology.
That's why the Elder Duke favored him, and Governor Lu habitually brought his youngest son along to show off.
Suixie, upon hearing this, widened her eyes in surprise. After a while, she closed her slightly open mouth and whispered, "Seventh Brother is so amazing!"
After her exclamation, Suixie couldn't help but ask the system, "Little Landmine, do you think Seventh Brother is capable of becoming a Little Landmine?"
The system didn't know the answer to this.
It couldn't scan a person's inner qualities.
However, it offered its opinion, "I think that for Little Landmine, he still needs the help of the Ying family's brothers."
Those people had been researching for a long time, and if Suixie provided some suggestions, they might actually achieve results.
But this was dangerous.
After hearing the story of Little Landmine, the system thought she had forgotten and didn't mention it again.
Children shouldn't play with such dangerous things.
Fire is useful, but dangerous.
Gunpowder is even more so!
Although the system was concerned, it provided an objective opinion.
Lu Yinsiao didn't show any interest or talent in gunpowder research.
On the other hand, the Ying family's young masters, upon their first meeting, had blown up their own manor.
So, they seemed to have good talent and plenty of experience.
