As the first snow fell in Kyoto, Princess Anyi also led the army to go on an expedition, leaving behind the eager Tang Shangshu and the heartless eldest son Tang Yu.

Hidden from the marching army, Duan Jingyi clutched the baggage on his back, feeling extremely complicated. He recalled the rumors he heard in Kyoto and looked at the gate of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, feeling a little intimidated.

"Young Master, you are back!" A surprised call woke him up. It was the butler of the General's Mansion. Looking at his wrinkled old face, Duan Jingyi twitched the corners of his mouth, suddenly not knowing what expression to use.

No wonder, no wonder my grandmother and father asked me to call a person with a different surname Second Brother. No wonder the servants in the family all call me Young Master. Why can a son who is nominally his father's benefactor be able to live in the Zhenguo General's Mansion for a long time, with all the maids in the mansion? He is called Young Master, not Young Master Xiao.

Another thing, whether it was an illusion after hearing the rumors, Duan Jingyi always felt that Xiao Yinchu's appearance was slightly similar to his father.

Clenching his fists, Duan Jingyi quickly calmed down. Although he felt that his father was sorry for his dead mother, it was still better to ask questions about this matter clearly to avoid the spread of some random rumors, which would be detrimental to the Zhenguo General's Mansion.

Stepping forward, Duan Jingyi handed the baggage to the housekeeper and asked casually: "Where is grandma?"

"Go back to the young master, the eldest princess is in her own yard." the housekeeper replied respectfully.

Duan Jingyi nodded, and after entering the mansion, he wanted to walk to the eldest princess's yard. After taking two steps, as if he suddenly remembered something, he called a little maid and asked her to take the message, then he turned around and headed to his own house. Walk to the yard.

The eldest princess was particularly happy when she received the news that Duan Jingyi was back and wanted to wash up in her yard. From the moment she received the news, she sent someone out every quarter of an hour to find out if Duan Jingyi had come out.

Finally, just when the eldest princess was looking forward to seeing her, Duan Jingyi, who had washed and dressed, entered the courtyard, took off his cloak, shook off the white snow on his body, and came forward to salute the eldest princess.

"I've lost weight and grown taller." The eldest princess's eyes were filled with joy.

"Grandma." Duan Jingyi looked at the eldest princess with a smile, took two steps forward, and sat down next to the eldest princess. He was neither too close to let the air conditioning on his body freeze the eldest princess, nor too far away. , which made the eldest princess feel that she was unfamiliar with her.

"Good boy," the eldest princess looked lovingly at Duan Jingyi in front of her, "you have grown up." She no longer had to throw herself into her arms after saluting like she did when she was a child, regardless of whether she was cold or hot.

Adults' evaluation of the matter of propriety is divided into two types: grown up and not grown up.

"The rules of the academy are indeed very training." Duan Jingyi smiled.

"Okay, okay, Xiuqi Academy is indeed worthy of its reputation. Your second brother wanted to send you there before, but he didn't let you take care of your servant, which made your grandmother worried." The eldest princess said with emotion.

Duan Jingyi's face froze, then he looked around and said in a slightly coquettish tone, "Grandma, my grandson wants to say something considerate to you."

The grandson has changed and grown, and the eldest princess, as a grandmother, is naturally very happy. This kind of thing is naturally something she can rely on.

When everyone was gone, Duan Jingyi leaned forward and said, "Grandma, when I first arrived in Kyoto, I heard some rumors about the identity of my second brother."

As expected, the eldest princess showed a trace of nervousness inadvertently. Although she quickly covered it up, Duan Jingyi, who had grown up next to her, was very familiar with her every move. This trace of nervousness Sure enough, he was caught.

"Is there really a problem?" In shock, Duan Jingyi's voice involuntarily became louder.

"Shut up!" the eldest princess angrily yelled, "Is this nonsense allowed? Just open your mouth and shout. Are you afraid that others won't know?"

Duan Jingyi, who had been pampered since childhood, even though he had received an academy education for a period of time, was still the pampered and lawless child at heart. He became a little fussy on the spot: "There is nothing that cannot be said. It has been spread outside, including dad. This kind of thing is hidden.”

"You are still too young, and so is your father..."

"Isn't it just that I have an illegitimate child? It would be nice if I adopted him as a bastard!"

Just as the eldest princess was about to explain, Duan Jingyi had already spoken out the rest of her words quickly.

"Having a child out of wedlock?" The eldest princess was not angry when she was interrupted. She just repeated Duan Jingyi's words.

"Yes, it has been spread on the street. As the son of a benefactor, it is not shameful to keep an illegitimate son by your side as an adopted son." Duan Jingyi's face was full of disgust, "If he feels sorry for my mother, he will do it from the beginning." He shouldn't have done this kind of thing. Since he did it, he would take her back as a concubine. My mother would probably not say anything. But it turned out to be a good thing for him. He brought his illegitimate child back to be raised by an outsider. My mother really believed that he was his benefactor. My son, I treat him better than my own son. If my mother finds out, she will be very angry!"

Teenage young people are full of passion, and their anger levels have reached their peak for this kind of thing.

The eldest prince opened his mouth to open his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to say. Saying that he was not an illegitimate son, but your cousin would definitely not work; saying that he was an illegitimate son... the son of the dignified prince became the illegitimate son of a minister, and it couldn't be justified.

"He is your brother!" Duan Jingyi, who was immersed in his own emotions, suddenly raised his head in shock when he heard what the eldest princess said.

"That's your biological brother, your biological brother from the same ancestor, but your father did have a benefactor. After his family broke up, your father discussed with your mother and adopted your second brother to him, so He is indeed your brother, but he doesn’t have the same last name as you because he is already adopted.”

The eldest princess's eyes were dull, and her mouth opened and closed telling lies that she didn't even believe.

Seeing Duan Jingyi looking at her in shock and then hugging her head, the eldest princess thought to herself, just look at it, no dog will believe this kind of lie.

"It's like this... Then I was too much towards him when I was a child..." Duan Jingyi was shocked by this fact. After all, they grew up together. Apart from their different surnames, Xiao Yinchu had indeed never left General Zhenguo. Mansion, and his mother has indeed been very good to him since childhood.

The eldest princess's eyes were filled with shock. Maybe she never thought that Duan Jingyi could believe such a weird and inexplicable reason.

"Ah...yes, yes..." she stammered in response, and the eldest princess didn't know what to say. Duan Jingyi was immersed in his own world, talking to himself, For a moment, the entire space was silent except for Duan Jingyi talking to himself.
