TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

Chapter 275 Return of the Pearl Buddha 43

As soon as Ziwei brought the little ones to Shufangzhai, they couldn't wait to run in.

"Sister Xiaoyanzi, Sister Xiaoyanzi! We are here to see you!"

Xiaoyanzi was attracted by the voices of the two people, threw down the martial arts secret book in her hand and went to meet them.

The lumps of earth in the two men's arms immediately caught her attention.

"Hey, why are you here? And you brought something with you? What is this, sweet potato?"

"Yes, my Thirteenth Brother and I dug it up in the Imperial Garden. We planted it ourselves."

……

Seeing that they were chatting happily, Ziwei turned around and instructed Caixia Mingyue to prepare charcoal and tools very familiarly.

"Xiaoyanzi, how are you today? Does your arm still hurt?"

"Don't worry, Ziwei. Caixia and the others will keep a close eye on me. I will listen to the imperial physician's orders."

Ziwei turned her gaze to the palace maids waiting on the side, and only felt relieved when she saw them all nodded.

It’s not that she was too cautious, but the injury was already serious.

Xiaoyanzi is a person who can't sit still. She wants to go out and move around as soon as she feels a little better.

Seeing that they had prepared a basin of water on the small table, she bent down and helped them process the sweet potatoes on the table, while comforting Xiaoyanzi.

"The imperial physician said that you will be able to move freely in a few days. Then we can go out of the palace and play together!"

"really?"

Little Swallow jumped up happily on the spot, and the sweet potato in her hand fell into the basin with a plop.

The water splashed on several people's faces in an instant.

"Sister Xiaoyanzi, you must be serious about what you do!"

Yongjing wiped the water stains off his face with a stern face, then reached out to wipe his sister's.

He looked at Xiaoyanzi with disapproval.

"Ouch, my bad, I was too excited. Come and wipe it off."

Xiaoyanzi smiled awkwardly and continued to work.

They had just agreed that roasted sweet potatoes would be more delicious if they were made by themselves. Yongjing specifically assigned her the easiest task, so she couldn't slack off.

It’s no wonder she was so excited. She had been under scrutiny since she returned to the palace.

She was not allowed to do this or that, which made her very depressed.

Ziwei rarely saw Xiaoyanzi being humiliated, so she turned her back and smiled secretly. It really is true that there is always someone who can defeat you.

The little swallow, who has always been fearless, will one day be willing to abide by the rules of children.

"Ziwei, stop laughing and tell me when we can go out."

"I haven't seen Liu Qing and Liu Hong for a long time. The last time I saw them, I wrote them a letter and sent them gifts."

"Fifth Prince and the others only said that Liu Qing and Liu Hong were doing well, but I'm still worried and want to see them in person, as well as Bao Yatou and the others in the compound."

Xiaoyanzi pursed her lips and her eyes were full of nostalgia. That was the place where she grew up for decades, and the people there were also her family.

"Sister Xiaoyanzi, are you going to leave the palace? Are you coming with us?"

"My brother has been preparing things these days and said he will leave in three days."

Yongjing's voice was also a little excited. The day he looked forward to most every month when he went out of the palace was the day he looked forward to the most.

Upon hearing this, Xiaoyanzi blinked her big eyes and looked at Ziwei, her eyes full of longing.

"I won't tease you anymore. We'll set off with Qing'er and the others when the time comes."

"It's just that Qing'er and the others have to go to the south of the city first. We can go directly to the compound and meet at the palace gate in the evening."

"Ah! Sister, won't you accompany us to the south of the city? It's very interesting there."

Jiayue also joined in, giving Xiaoyanzi a big smile in an attempt to seduce her. She also wanted to introduce her new sister to her friends.

Xiaoyanzi was in a dilemma. She couldn't bear to reject Jiayue, but she also wanted to go back to the slum to take a closer look.

Ziwei saw what she was thinking and reached out to rub Jiayue's head. "Then let's make an appointment to go together next time, okay?"

"My sisters have other things to do."

"Okay then!" Jiayue was not disappointed and would do the same next time.

After solving the big problem in her heart, Xiaoyanzi had more fun playing with them. This batch of sweet potato seedlings was the reward that Yan Ning received from the system.

Compared with the varieties currently grown by the people, it has higher yield and tastes better.

Several people were very satisfied with the meal.

Xiaoyanzi even doubted whether this was still the sweet potato she remembered.

After sending the two little guys away, Xiaoyanzi remembered her own business and took the so-called martial arts secret book to discuss it with Ziwei.

"This... Xiaoyanzi, I don't know martial arts, so I can't see what's wrong."

"Wait a minute, there's also a secret method." Xiaoyanzi ran to the side and started looking for it.

Ziwei took it and read it puzzledly. "There's the Hunling on top and Guanyuan on the bottom, the Shaoyang on the left and the Taiyin on the right?"

She seemed to understand something and flipped through several pages. "The mouth is the Jade Pool of Taihe Palace. Rinse your mouth and swallow the spiritual liquid to prevent disasters..."

"Xiaoyanzi, this is not some martial arts secret manual."

Ziwei didn't know who would use the Huangting Sutra to deceive people, and even attached a picture book, so she thought it must be expensive.

She explained to Xiaoyanzi in a gentler way.

"So? Learning this can only prolong your life, it's not a peerless martial art at all!" Xiaoyanzi slumped down in a chair with a dejected look on her face.

She felt even more sad when she thought about the hard work she had put in over the past few days. She couldn't understand the deep meaning of the text and had to rely on rote memorization.

Now the dream is shattered.

Ziwei took a long time to comfort the person.

The next day, Yongqi was kindly reminded by Xiaoyanzi. He was so ashamed and angry when he saw the other party's caring eyes.

With a red face, she ran back to Kunning Palace to complain to the queen, and was overheard by the emperor outside.

"Hahaha~ There's such a thing?"

"You little ones are such a headache every day. It's a good thing Little Swallow didn't practice with you."

The queen noticed that the emperor was not really angry, and joined in the joke.

Yongji had never been teased like this by his parents before. His ears turned red so much that they seemed to bleed. Only then did the emperor and empress restrain themselves.

"Yongji, you are still young. As you read more books, you will naturally be able to distinguish them."

The emperor looked at Yongqi lovingly and asked about his studies.

Yongji studied very hard in the past two years. The empress felt sorry for him and would not force him. The emperor saw this and became more satisfied with this legitimate son.

When the Queen came to pay her respects, she told this incident to Nan Chu as a joke.

Nan Chu was stunned for a moment. She had even forgotten that the heroine really wanted to learn martial arts.

In the past, learning martial arts could help one better protect oneself and be a hero.

Now all crises have been resolved and she lives a life without worries about food and clothing, but this wish still exists.

This incident was like a slap in Nan Chu's face.

The peace and tranquility she thought she had was always an illusion.

"Madam Gui, please select a few of the most powerful masters from my side and pass on the order that Princess Huanzhu should learn martial arts seriously."

"The princesses in the palace are all treated equally."

The queen looked around confused and wondered if she should discuss this matter with the emperor, as there had never been such a precedent in the harem.

"Karl Lafayette~"

"Ok?"

She was about to speak, but she shut up again when she met Nan Chu's serious gaze.

The emperor is so filial, he probably won’t mind.
