"Princess Consort." Zhuo Jing walked into the side hall and looked at Ye Li and Ye Wenhua before greeting respectfully. Ye Li nodded and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?" Zhuo Jing said, "His Highness said that the Little Heir and Little Princess's' catching 'ceremony is about to begin and asked the Princess to attend." Ye Li nodded and asked, "Has the Heir arrived?" Zhuo Jing shook his head and said, "I haven't seen the Heir."
Ye Li helplessly indicated for Zhuo Jing to go find Mo Xiaobao first. She stood up and smiled at Ye Wenhua, "Father, let's go. It's about to start. "Ye Wenhua paused and quickly nodded," All right, let's go. "
When they entered the main hall, it was already bustling with noise and excitement. The Prince Ding Mansion had prepared a large table that was five to six feet long. There were all kinds of things on it. Xu Qingyan and Xu Qingfeng each held one in their arms. When they saw Ye Li walk over, they immediately stretched out their little hands towards Ye Li happily. Ye Li smiled and stroked the babies' little faces, asking, "Has it started?"
Chief Steward Mo said in a low voice, "The auspicious hour has arrived. The Prince and Princess can begin to catch the Prince."
Ye Li clapped her hands and smiled, "Let them pass."
Xu Qingyan giggled as he placed Lin 'er on the table. Xu Qingfeng also placed Xin' er on the table. The two babies looked curiously at everything in front of them. Although there were so many pairs of eyes staring at them, the two babies did not have stage fright. Instead, they excitedly fiddled with the things on the table.
Xin 'er picked up a small abacus made of gold and curiously fiddled with it. Han Mingxi couldn't help but smile, "Could it be that the Princess wants to be a wealthy merchant in the future?" Before he finished speaking, Xin 'er giggled and quickly stuffed the small abacus into Lin' er's arms. Lin 'er looked at the little toy in his hand suspiciously. He tilted his little head and thought for a moment. Then, he turned his little body and placed the little abacus behind him. Then, he grabbed a book beside him and stuffed it into Xin' er's arms.
Xin 'er did not dare to show weakness. She chuckled as she grabbed a pen not far away and stuffed it into Lin' er's hands. Thus, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two siblings started to play with one another.
Feng Zhiyao stared dumbfoundedly at the siblings who were still playing happily in front of him. "What are they doing?" Ye Li looked at the small piles of things behind the siblings and couldn't help but smile. She didn't know what they were doing. After thinking about it, Ye Li clapped her hands and smiled at the two babies, "Lin 'er, Xin' er, pick something you like and give it to Mother."
It wasn't clear whether the two children understood Ye Li's words or not, but when they saw Ye Li open her arms, Lin 'er took the lead and got up first after a moment of hesitation. He walked up and down the long table, and soon came back with a pair of things. Among them, there was an exquisite little sword, a small red sandalwood box, and a picture scroll. However, his two small hands couldn't hold so many things. He had only taken a few steps when they fell to the ground. He thought for a moment and pushed the picture scroll in Xin 'er's direction. He picked up the little sword and the red sandalwood box and continued to walk forward. Halfway through, he casually threw the box aside and picked up a green jade seal. Then, he held the little sword in one hand and the seal in the other and walked towards Ye Li's direction.
"Congratulations to the Little Heir for your unparalleled martial arts in the future. You'll be able to command thousands of troops and horses!" As it turned out, the last seal that Lin 'er picked up was a military commander's seal.
Lin 'er threw himself into Ye Li's arms and handed the commander's seal to Ye Li. "Mother … Lin' er is good …" Ye Li smiled as she hugged her son. She lowered her head and kissed his little head. She smiled and said, "En, Lin 'er is good."
Xin 'er, who was still sitting on the table, pursed her lips when she saw that her brother had left. He calmly glanced at the surrounding crowd and slowly began to move as well. Although she was the older sister, her steps were not as steady as Lin 'er's. After a few steps, she stopped and continued to crawl around the table. When she saw something that she liked, she would pull it towards the place where she had been sitting. Soon, there was a large pile of things around her. Weapons and toys that boys liked, jewelry that girls liked, jewelry, books, brushes, and ink that one could think of. When she felt that it was enough, she sat there and didn't move anymore.
Ye Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Xin 'er, choose something that you like and bring it over."
Xin 'er looked at Ye Li and hesitated for a moment. She lowered her head and looked at the pile of things in front of her. Her big, bright eyes turned and she crawled towards the table. Everyone was afraid that she would fall and quickly went forward. Xin 'er grabbed the sleeve of Xu Qingyan, who was closest to her, and crawled back. She brought Xu Qingyan to her pile of things and then stared at him with wide eyes.
Xu Qingyan was speechless. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he could only rub his nose helplessly and ask, "Xin 'er, do you want uncle to help you carry it?" Xin' er giggled. Xu Qingyan could only ask, "Which one do you want?"
Xin 'er began to push the things one by one towards Xu Qingyan. Xu Qingchen looked helplessly at Ye Li and Mo Xiuyao, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Sister Li 'er, your little princess is really greedy."
The people nearby also found the little princess's actions very amusing. Mo Jingyu smiled and said, "It seems that the little princess has a wide range of interests. In the future, she will definitely be rich and won't have to worry about anything."
Everyone also congratulated Prince Ding and Princess Consort for their good fortune. In the end, only Xu Qingyan was forced to help the little princess put away all the things. Because if he didn't put them away, the little princess would lie on a pair of small things and refuse to move.
The pregnancy catching ceremony was actually very simple. After the two babies were caught, they were carried down. The guests who had come to watch the ceremony were invited to the garden to enjoy the scenery, drink wine, and chat, while waiting for the evening banquet.
The people of the Prince Ding Mansion gathered in the reception pavilion. The two babies were still holding their spoils of war and playing happily in the arms of the adults. Xu Qingyan had an amused expression as he held Xin 'er. On the table beside him were Xin' er's spoils of war. Xin 'er was holding an exquisite and gorgeous jewelry box in her hands and studying it attentively.
"Xiao Bao hasn't returned yet?" Ye Li asked with a frown.
Xu Qingfeng frowned and said, "Not yet. Zhirui, Junhan, and Qin Lie are also not in the mansion. But they should be fine. If something really happened, the people following them will come back to report. " Ye Li looked at Mo Xiuyao. Mo Xiuyao smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, Li. Xiao Bao and the others will be fine."
Ye Li nodded and looked at Qin Lie, asking, "How is the Queen of Nanzhao?"
Qin Feng frowned and said, "Although Princess Anxi has disguised herself, it's not to the extent that we can't recognize her. She is being led around the city. Mo Jingli probably doesn't want to do anything to Princess Anxi. He just wants to use Princess Anxi to divert our attention. " Ye Li pondered for a moment and said, "Look for an opportunity. No matter what … we should save Princess Anxi first."
"Prince, Princess, something bad has happened." Outside the door, Director Mo hurried in to report.
"What happened?" Mo Xiuyao asked calmly. Chief Steward Mo said in a deep voice, "Prince Pu 'a heard about Princess Anxi from somewhere and rushed out with his men to save Princess Anxi."
