Everyone looked at Nan Yi Ke in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly shouted. Nan Yi Ke's face turned slightly red, and seeing Xia Tian Meng also looking at him, he became angry and shouted at her: "Who do you think I'm doing this for? Don't you know who forgot about others, now is the time to feel guilty!"

  Xia Tian Mo raised an eyebrow in surprise and asked, "Are you referring to the Ninth Prince?"

  Nan Yi didn't think Xia Tian Meng would remember Lao Jiu, and he nodded blankly.

  Xia Tian Miao saw his silly appearance and couldn't help but laugh, saying: "Dad is just about to take us together, how convenient that you've arrived, why don't we go together!"

  Nan Yi Xiu awkwardly rubbed his nose, urging: "The Grand Master still has important matters to attend to, I'll take Meng Ya with me and that's enough!" But in his heart, he was thinking, if Old Ninth suddenly saw the Grand Master, wouldn't he immediately show loyalty and say he wants to marry his 'daughter'? If things got out of hand, it would be him who suffers!

  Xia Ying also knew that if she were to go, they would inevitably be uncomfortable, so it's better not to join in the commotion. She nodded and instructed Chen Yu and Xiang Ling: "Take good care of Miss, don't let her catch a cold again."

  The maid hastily curtsied and replied: "I understand, I will definitely take good care of the young lady."

  Sun the housekeeper, who was standing outside the door, heard the conversation inside and beckoned to a servant waiting at his side. He whispered to him, "Quickly go prepare the carriage." After seeing the young servant run off, he stroked his chin, which didn't have any whiskers, and thought to himself that Miss's illness had actually improved her relationship with her grandfather. It was indeed true that one couldn't know what good fortune lay in misfortune!

  Sun Guanjia's thoughts were unknown to Xia Tianmeng and the others. Nan Yi saw Chen Yulou helping Xia Tianmeng into the carriage, then slowly mounted his own horse.

  As he rushed to the general's mansion, he suddenly felt that he had forgotten something, but his mind couldn't turn around and didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just because he hadn't rested well the night before.

  I didn't expect at all that I was only thinking about how Lao Jiu would be sad, but why didn't I think about Ge's feelings.

  It wasn't until they arrived at the general's mansion together that Nan Yi saw the parked carriage at the gate and suddenly remembered what he had forgotten.

  He turned around and looked at Xia Tianmeng, who was elegantly dressed and had a slender figure. He could only turn back and sigh helplessly, hoping that his brothers wouldn't quarrel over this matter.

  At this time, Nan Jiu, who was playing chess with Nan Qi on the "bed" in the room, looked at the chessboard with a helpless expression. In fact, big brother came here just to bully him in his own expertise, right? Right?

  Nan Qi also noticed Nan Jiu's distraction, and with a elegant gesture, he used the white piece in his hand to capture the black piece on the chessboard. Seeing Nan Jiu's rare expression of being lost in thought, he couldn't help but chuckle and tap his head: "Since you were young, every time I taught you these skills, you never listened carefully. I thought that as you grew older, you would be more patient, but it seems like nothing has changed."

  Nan Jiu, on the other hand, was completely unbothered. He had never been interested in the things that these literary people were passionate about. If he were forced to sit idly for an entire afternoon just to read a book, he would probably go crazy!

  When they were young, the three brothers studied together, and he was always at the bottom, but he had a good relationship with his second brother and didn't mind these things. Empress Dowager Liang also never forced him to study these things, after all, he was the dragon son, even if he was illiterate and couldn't recognize characters, no one dared to say anything wrong about him.

  It is just that the Emperor has always placed greater emphasis on literary officials, and as a prince, he must set an example for himself. Even if he cannot become accomplished in literature, he cannot drag his feet either.

  So they reluctantly learned the things that their elder brothers were good at. Emperor Wei also knew what his two sons were like and didn't force them, anyway the one who would inherit the throne in the future was the Crown Prince.

  Nan Qi saw his nonchalant appearance and suddenly remembered how Old Ninth would secretly exchange glances with him whenever the Taifu asked questions during his childhood.

  In his childhood, the mischievous things he did are still vivid in my mind, and before I knew it, so many years have passed. Even Lao Jiu, who only loved to practice martial arts, has grown into a young man with a crush on someone.

  “Lao Jiu……” Nan Qi had wanted to ask him about whether Xia Tian Meng was really that devoted, but when he saw Lao Jiu’s dark and clear eyes, he suddenly became speechless. He had long known that Lao Jiu wasn’t a casual person, if he had truly said the words “I love you”, then he must be really unable to give up.

  Compared to Xia Tian's complicated emotions, he'd rather see Lao Jiu happy.

  Long ago, he made a promise to take good care of Er Er and Jiu Jiu. Now, she is just a woman who doesn't even have his heart. What else can't he bear to part with?

  Nan Jiu looked into Nan Qi's warm and gentle eyes, and suddenly felt speechless. Compared to his older brother still being so gentle with him now, he would rather have his older brother scold him, even though he knew that was an impossible thing.

  The eldest brother has always been very good to him and the second brother, since childhood, whatever the eldest brother gets will never be less for them. He once vowed to become a great general king, protect his family and country, assist his elder brother, now he still thinks so, only more determined than before.

  He snatched Mengmeng away from his older brother and wanted to compensate him doubly from elsewhere, regardless of whether the older brother needed it or not.

  The two did not speak, but they saw what each other wanted to say from their eyes. Nanjiu's apology and Nanxi's indifference.

  "It's almost the Emperor's birthday, I think if we don't tell Father Emperor, he might... during the palace banquet..." Nan Qi smiled as she put away the chess pieces one by one, seeing Nan Jiu suddenly tense up, she couldn't help but find it a bit amusing. "You can rest assured, I'll go back and tell Father Emperor today." Even though Old Nine personally explained to Father Emperor yesterday, he still hasn't expressed his attitude, whether or not he agrees, he has to ask anyway.

  Nan Jiu's handsome and serious face slightly flushed, but he still nodded in agreement.

  Wang Xi stood respectfully behind him, his expression unchanged as he glanced at Nan Jiu, but in his heart, he had a new understanding of the Crown Prince's emphasis on fraternal bonds.

  "Old Nine!" The voice arrived before the person, Nan Yi Kou pushed open the door and strode in, rushing to Nan Qi with a smile. "Just now at the gate, I saw big brother's carriage and thought my eyes were playing tricks on me! Big brother should be in the imperial study discussing memorials with Father Emperor at this hour!"

  Nan Qi knew Nan Yi Xing was teasing him, so he just smiled and shook his head. Before he could say anything, he saw Xia Tian Meng walking in.

  Xia Tian Meng seemingly hadn't expected him to be here either, and after a moment's stunned silence, he bowed his head in greeting: "Your subject 'woman' has seen the Crown Prince."

  Nan Qi only realized why he hadn't seen Nan Yi when he saw her. As if not noticing the awkwardness of the two brothers, he nodded slightly at Xia Tianmeng: "Miss Xia, no need to be polite."

  Nanjue's eyes stared at Xia Tian Meng, her heart couldn't help but feel a sour taste, she was still so gentle to him yesterday! But as soon as she saw big brother, didn't she directly ignore him?

  In the summer, Meng naturally couldn't help but notice Nanjiu's gaze. She slightly turned her body and bowed to him: "Please be at ease, Ninth Prince. Thank you, Ninth Prince, for saving my life."

  Nanjing woke up, after a night suddenly unfamiliar what ghost?

  Nan Yi Xie couldn't help but feel a little unbearable, but he had to tell him: "Lao Jiu, Meng Ya because of the stimulation, overnight forgot everything."

  Contrary to his expectations, Nan Jiu didn't show any signs of sadness and instead asked, "What about big brother?"

  Nan Yi looked at Nan Qi and didn't know how to respond, but Nan Qi just smiled carelessly and said, "Miss Xia naturally wouldn't remember either."

  Nanjiu indeed 'revealed' a happy 'expression', with a flushed face, she said to Xia Tianmeng: "I've had feelings for you since I was young, and it's still the same today. Yesterday when I got hurt, you were the one who took care of me all along, so you're not someone who would deny it just because you don't remember, right?"

  The most astonishing thing is that Nan Yi's eyes widened in shock, but isn't this the old nine who is not good at speaking and has nothing to do with women? He thought he had rich emotional experience, but since he hadn't experienced it himself, he naturally didn't understand that the first rule for a man chasing his wife is to have thick skin.

  In the summer, Meng also didn't expect Nan Jiu to say something like that. Seeing his expectant expression, he couldn't bear to say anything harsh and could only pretend to be puzzled, looking at him: "Really?"

  Nanjiu nodded repeatedly, without any of her usual elegant and refined demeanor.

  Xia Tian Miao smiled and asked him, "So what should I do now?"

  Nan Jiu saw her respond so readily and suddenly felt a bit unresponsive, but after being slapped by Nan Yi Ke, she opened her mouth and said, "Why don't we play a few rounds of hand talk?"

  Xiatian Meng just smiled and nodded: "Okay."

  Until he followed Nan Qi out the door, Nan Yi Ke was somewhat dazed and looked at his wise older brother: "Huh? Isn't Ninth always not fond of playing chess?" He remembered that every time he teased him about being a bad chess player, Ninth would chase after him everywhere.

  The pair of mandarin ducks that followed behind and came out together exchanged a glance, gaining new insight into the intelligence of the Second Prince.

  The two people left in the house began playing chess calmly.

  The room was filled with the smell of medicine that he didn't like, but sitting so close to her, he suddenly felt as if the fragrance lingering in his nostrils was the scent on her body.

  "Check!" Bai Zi fell into the trap, and Nan Jiu hurriedly continued. In his heart, he couldn't help but scold himself for being stupid, saying that nothing was good or bad about playing chess, yet he had been a professional chess player for over a decade.

  In the summer, 'Meng' naturally couldn't help but notice his chess smell, yet he didn't confront him about it. Instead, he asked him, "The Dragon Boat Festival is just around the corner, I wonder if the Ninth Prince has prepared a birthday gift?"

  Nan Jiu was taken aback for a moment, thinking that these things had always been handled by the steward, and he had always been careless, as long as the emperor didn't blame him, it was fine.

  Xia Tian Meng looked at him, and he coughed twice in embarrassment: "I think... is everything ready?"

  In the summer, Meng saw his expression and knew why, but didn't say it out loud.

  Instead, Nan Jiu saw her smiling face and unexpectedly asked, "If I were to marry you, would you be willing?"

  Xiatian Meng didn't expect Nan Jiu, who usually spoke little and was reserved, to ask such a question. She was taken aback for a moment, then smiled slightly under his tense and expectant gaze: "Parental orders, matchmaker's words."

  Nan Jiu's eyes lit up, this is... Father Emperor and Tai Shi nodded, she had no objections?
