"Xiaotang..." Qin Lin stared at Ji Xiaotang for a long time, "I have a right view of you. You are indeed not an ordinary woman."

"I don't understand whether the prince said this, whether he praises me or defames me." Ji Xiaotang looked at Qin Lin.

Qin Linzhan smiled and said, "It's a pity."

Qin Lin turned around and left, and in a short while, Qi Younian came.

"Xiaotang..." Qi Younian called out, coming to the banquet today, and he had no chance to talk to Ji Xiaotang alone.

"Have you discussed what King Su said just now?" Ji Xiaotang asked Qi Younian.

Qi Younian nodded: "Yes."

"You actually agreed?"

"Yeah." Qi Younian nodded again. He saw the disagreement in Ji Xiaotang's eyes, so he defended himself. "Xiaotang, I also know that the method is not very safe, but it is always worth it to be together."

Qi Younian also knew the side effects of that method, but he still nodded to Qin Lin.

Ji Xiaotang sighed softly.

"Ayou, if that's the point, what's the point of everything we've done so far?"

Qi You was speechless for a long time.

Ji Xiaotang was also silent for a moment, and then he revealed the topic.

"My uncle brought back a lot of good things. I saw that there were weapons inside. You can pick two of them you like later. My uncle also brought you a gift." Ji Xiaotang's voice was brisk.

Qi Younian knew that Ji Xiaotang was deliberately doing this and wanted him to be happy.

Qi Younian never disappointed Ji Xiaotang, so he smiled.

He sent Qin Lin to leave first, and then Qi Younian followed Ji Xiaotang to Master Ji San's residence. The things that Master Ji San brought back were varied and dazzling, and most of them were sent to foreign goods shops for sale. The best and rarest ones were left behind, and they were not bought in foreign goods shops.

Qi Younian looked at the various things in the room and joked with Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San. It seemed as if time had gone back, and everyone was still in Qingyuan.

Qi Younian couldn't help but show a sincere smile on his face.

"It's a pity that I can't get rid of myself. When can I follow Wenda overseas and open my eyes?" Qi Younian said, stroking a slender Japanese knife with shark skin.

This Japanese sword was exchanged for a set of tea sets by Master Ji San. I don’t know what materials and craftsmanship were used. Although the blade is light, it is strong and sharp, and it can be called a treasure sword.

This Japanese sword is the gift that Master Ji San brought back to Qi Younian.

"Haha," Master Ji San laughed when he heard Qi Younian say this. "You envy me for not coming. You are the war god of Daqin. If you want to suppress the rebellion and defend the territory for Daqin, Daqin cannot live without you. But I am an idle person, and I can go wherever I want."

Speaking of this, Master Ji San couldn't help but feel very proud.

He does have the capital to be proud of.

Leading the fleet to take risks is what Master Ji San is really happy about, doing what he likes to do. This is extremely rare. At the same time, as a child of the Ji family, he was able to pass the imperial examination. Now he has become the third-rank deputy Zuodu Censor, who lives up to the Ji family's books and glorify his ancestors.

Now in the Ji family, except Ji Xiaotang, there is the highest rank of Master Ji San. Although Master Ji and Master Ji Er both have passed the imperial examination, their current official titles are still below Master Ji San.

How could Master Ji San not be proud?

While he was proud, he would certainly not forget.∏∈, thanks to who he was able to be today.

"Xiaotang is my savior and my lucky star." For Ji Xiaotang, he is willing to do everything.

"Xiaotang..." Qi Younian turned his head and looked at Ji Xiaotang. "Xiaotang is also my...a lucky star."

Qi Younian's words brought a hint of sorrow.

Master Ji San noticed it sensitively and winked at Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang turned around, and Master Ji San took the opportunity to pull Qi Younian aside, and enlightened Qi Younian very much. When Ji Xiaotang heard Qi Younian's laughter and turned to look, it happened that Qi Younian and Master Ji San walked back, and Qi Younian's eyes touched Ji Xiaotang's eyes.

Ji Xiaotang smiled, but felt a little sad.

Although she had done her best, Qi Younian was afraid that there were still scars in her heart.

"Ayou, a man, can take it and let it go. I hope you can get better soon." Ji Xiaotang silently prayed in his heart.

It was Ji Xiaotang's birthday in a blink of an eye. This was Ji Xiaotang's first birthday since she entered Beijing and became the county lord, and it will also be her last birthday as her unmarried daughter.

The Ji family attaches great importance to this day.

Xinhua Hall held a banquet to celebrate Ji Xiaotang's birthday.

Ji Xiaotang was in Yanhua Hall, watching Madam Cheng take someone to pack the gifts.

The Ji family did not have any posts on Ji Xiaotang's birthday, but almost all the governments in the central government came to hear the news and gave generous gifts.

Among the many gifts, three people have the most outstanding gifts.

What Qin Zhen gave to Ji Xiaotang was a pearl crown with extremely exquisite workmanship, with a total of 308 eastern beads inlaid, which can be said to be priceless.

What Qi Younian gave Ji Xiaotang was a specimen of a leopard that he personally hunted and made. I don’t know what exclusive secret recipe he used. The whole leopard was lifelike and the fur seemed to be smooth and plump, as if it still had life.

Among the many gifts, the leopard given by Qi Younian is the most unique and eye-catching.

Master Ji San likes this leopard very much and thinks that Qi Younian is not only very capable, but also unique.

Ji Xiaotang also liked it very much and planned to put the leopard in the house for decoration in the future.

King Su Qinlin also sent a gift. He gave an ancient painting called "Yang Guifei teaches parrots to recite scriptures", which is also priceless and seems to be one of his treasures.

Mr. Han, Mr. Xie, Mr. Song Dingguo, Minister of War, Minister of Revenue, Zheng Mian, Minister of Works, Wu Cheng, etc. all sent congratulatory gifts.

The Empress Dowager Han and Emperor Longqing in the palace also received rewards, and even Princess Changning gave Ji Xiaotang a gift.

The gift that Princess Changning gave to Ji Xiaotang was a whole box of palace fans.

Ji Xiaotang smiled at him, and in addition to letting someone keep the fan, he also gave a generous reward to Changning who called him to give gifts. If it is really useful to curse people, there are still a few good people in this world who can live well.

Ji Xiaotang seems to be too stupid and childish in Changning's approach.

The Weiwu Hou Mansion also sent gifts, which were all in line and were of great value.

These gifts will be registered and recorded. Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er said that they would not keep any of them, but would give them to Ji Xiaotang to take them to Prince An's Mansion.

Ji Xiaotang married into Prince An's Mansion. Of course, Qin Zhen would not lose her expenses. As a princess, she also had a salary from the court. However, Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er are parents. ⊥, I hope Ji Xiaotang will have more money to accompany you.

Being a princess also costs a lot, and it is much more convenient to do things.

"If you don't spend money, then keep it well for our grandson to use it in the future." Mr. Ji Er also said.

Before Ji Xiaotang went out, Master Ji Er was thinking about his grandson.

Ji Xiaotang had nothing to say either.

There was also a special guest who came to celebrate Ji Xiaotang's birthday.

This guest is Shunyi Bo, Qi Huaijin now.

"Xiaotang. Why haven't you come to see me for so long?" Since becoming Shunyi Bo, Qi Huaijin has almost no chance to leave Master Bo's Mansion. Today, he was able to come to Xinhua Hall because Ji Xiaotang and Qin Zhen secretly thought of a solution.

Qi Huaijin was both happy and wronged when she saw Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang has been too busy these days and has indeed not been to see him for a long time.

"I'm sorry." Ji Xiaotang hurriedly apologized to Qi Huaijin, "I've been too busy recently, but I asked my sister to send you a message, you've received it."

Although Ji Xiaotang hadn't been to Shunyi Bo Mansion for a long time, Ji Xiaoyun often went there. Ji Xiaotang asked Ji Xiaoyun to send a message to Qi Huaijin for her, and brought things to Qi Huaijin several times.

"Xiaoyun brought me all your words and the things you gave me. I was very happy." Qi Huaijin spoke with the child's unique seriousness, "But I am sad if I can't see you."

"You haven't seen me now!" Ji Xiaotang smiled.

"Yes, Huaijin, I didn't tell you. Xiaotang is too busy, but she cares about you very much. You can come to my house today, thanks to Xiaotang's solutions that all parties think. Xiaotang, she cares about you." Ji Xiaoyun was on the side, and at this time came to comfort Qi Huaijin. "If you talk to Xiaotang like this, Xiaotang should be sad."

Qi Huaijin nodded, and he couldn't help but complain to Ji Xiaotang, but he didn't want Ji Xiaotang to be sad.

"Xiaotang, I'm not unhappy anymore. I'm very happy to see you, so don't be unhappy either." Qi Huaijin immediately turned around and said to Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang smiled again.

She felt that Ji Xiaoyun seemed to be better at coaxing Qi Huaijin than her, and Qi Huaijin became very listening to Ji Xiaoyun's words.

Seeing Ji Xiaoyun talking, Qi Huaijin bowed his head obediently and listened. Ji Xiaotang could see that Qi Huaijin now relied on Ji Xiaoyun very much.

Before we knew it, many things were happening.

On Ji Xiaotang's birthday, Qi Huaijin also prepared gifts for her. Although Qi Huaijin was nominally Shunyi Bo, she actually had nothing except for the substantial salary, so naturally she could not prepare any decent gifts.

Qi Huaijin's gift was prepared by Ji Xiaoyun.

Ji Xiaotang could see it at a glance.

"Xiaotang, I know you're going to get married." At this time, Qi Huaijin turned his head and talked to Ji Xiaotang, "Xiaoyun said I should be happy for you, but I don't know why..."

Qi Huaijin spoke, raised his hand and pressed his heart.

"I feel a little uncomfortable here, I feel empty."

Qi Huaijin no longer remembers the many things between him and Ji Xiaotang, but his feelings for Ji Xiaotang are deeply embedded in his bone marrow. Even if he has no memory and his mind is only eight to nine years old, this feeling is still there, but he himself does not understand.

"Of course you can't bear to leave me. Like my parents and Changsheng, they can't bear to leave me too." Ji Xiaotang said with a smile, "Even if I marry, I'm still Xiaotang, your Xiaotang."

"Really?" Qi Huaijin asked.

"Really!" Ji Xiaotang and Zheng pointed.
