Most of the animals the two little fellows captured were small animals. Although there were not many, it was enough for them to eat.

Xiao Jin told the Imperial Guards to send all the prey they hunted down to the kitchen for Hea Shouyi to process.

“It’s getting late. You guys must be tired after playing for so long. Let’s go back to the villa first. If it’s still early after resting, we’ll go to the plum blossom forest in the back mountain to take a look.”

“Alright.”

The family of four returned to the villa and changed their clothes.

After Zhou Qing brought the heater into the house, she came out and saw Bai Shuang standing outside the door with a food container in her hand in a daze.

“Bai Shuang, what are you doing?”

Bai Shuang came back to her senses. She did not know why, but she kept thinking of Si Chen’s very pale face. She wondered if he had woken up. Imperial Physician Ruan said that if he did not wake up tomorrow, it meant he would die…

“It’s nothing. Maybe it’s too cold outside and my brain is a little frozen. 111

bring some snacks in first.”

Zhou Qing looked at Bai Shuang’s back profile and frowned. Ever since Bai Shuang returned to the palace, she had felt that there was something not quite right with Bai Shuang. She would always be in a daze from time to time. When Zhou Qing inquired, she would not say anything.

Su Ying hugged the two little ones as she lay on the soft couch and listened to Xiao Jin read out from a story book. The strange tales in the book never failed to attract the attention of the trio of mother and children and they listened with great interest.

“Mother, that demon is too evil. He actually ate all the good people.”

Su Ying stroked the child’s tiny head lovingly. “My good child, both humans and demons like to bully the weak. As long as we are strong enough, not only can we defeat those demons, but we can also protect the weak.

The two little ones nodded without quite understanding.

“Mother, in the future, when I grow up, I want to become a strong person like

Father and Mother,” Ling proclaimed.

Su Ying gently pinched her tiny face. “Sure. Mother will rely on you to protect

me and your father in the future.”

Ji puffed out his tiny chest. “Mother, don’t worry. I will protect you well too!” “Your Majesty, Your Imperial Highness, Uncle Hea is already preparing dinner, so the dishes for lunch will be simpler.”

Bai Shuang spread out all the dishes from the food container.

The dishes were supposedly simpler, but in Su Ying’s eyes, they didn’t look simple at all. There was a Beggar’s Chicken, a pile of crispy meat, fish soup, and crispy spicy vegetables. Simply looking at those dishes made her hungry.

Xiao Jin closed the story book in his hand. “All of you must be hungry after playing for so long. Let’s eat first. After we’re full, we’ll go to the back of the mountain to look around.”

“Yay! Time to eat.”

The two little fellows were also hungry, so they ate very enthusiastically.

After eating, Su Ying felt a little sleepy. In fact, she wasn’t interested in appreciating the scenery. When she saw that the two little fellows were also dozing off, she brought them to rest with her in the house.

Xiao Jin told Zhang Shuming to bring out all the memorials he had brought from the palace. He would settle some state affairs while his wife and children

were resting.

There were Imperial Guards patrolling outside the villa all the while. The two men following Si Chen did not dare to get too close as they were afraid of being discovered by the Imperial Guards.

“Although there are usually people taking care of this villa, when there’s no one staying, there definitely won’t be so many Imperial Guards keeping watch. Is it because some n.o.ble had arrived?” It would be troublesome if Si Chen was saved by a n.o.ble living in the villa.

“Go back and send a message to Master first. I will think of a way to find out who is in the villa now.”

“Alright.”

When Su Ying woke up, the sky outside was almost dark.

After the weather turned cold, the sky turned dark very quickly.

Su Ying got up and walked around the screen to see Xiao Jin sitting under the lamp, reading memorials. Even when he was taking a break, he still had endless problems to think about.

Xiao Jin raised his head from the memorial when he heard the noise. “You’re awake?”

Su Ying nodded. “Those two little fellows have been sleeping until now. They probably won’t be able to sleep at night.” She felt that the two children were also tired. It was rare for them to have a holiday, so she wanted them to let themselves go and indulge and do things that they could not usually do.

-There’s a hot spring at the back of the mountain. Let’s go there for a soak tonight.”

“Mm-hmm.”

Perhaps it was because Su Ying wasn’t by their side, but the two little fellows woke up not long after.

After washing up and getting dressed, the two little fellows pestered Xiao Jin to read them the story in the book again.

“Your Majesty, Your Imperial Highness, there is a warm pavilion behind the villa. Uncle Hea said that he had marinated a lot of the prey. Now that the weather is cold, he is worried that if we bring the roasted meat here after roasting, the meat will turn cold before arriving here. He suggested to go to the warm pavilion and eat there as he roasts the meat.

Roasted meat should be eaten hot, not to mention that the weather was so cold now.

“Alright. Then let’s go to the warm pavilion.”

Xiao Jin held Su Ying’s hand, and the two of them led the children to the warm pavilion.

Charcoal braziers were blazing in the warm pavilion. As soon as the family walked in, a wave of heat hit them. The heat wave was accompanied by the rich aroma of roasted meat. As soon as she entered, Su Ying’s craving was aroused.

Hea Shouyi was busy working in front of the roasting rack. When he saw Xiao Jin and the others enter, he went forward and bowed.

“Your Majesty, Your Imperial Highness, please wait a moment. The roast meat will be ready soon. You can eat it while it is being roasted. It will taste better

this way.”

“Alright.”

There was a small compartment in the warm pavilion. If they ate in the compartment, they would not be affected by the fumes from the roasting pit.

The palace maids carried the roasted meat into the compartment. The oil was still sizzling on the roasted meat, which made one drool as one looked at it.

“Wow! It smells so good.”

The two little ones had a lot of exercise today. Coupled with the cold weather, they had expended a lot of energy. They became hungry at once when they smelled the fragrant aroma of the roasted meat.

Su Ying found it troublesome to use chopsticks, so she grabbed a roasted lamb leg directly and started eating. The roasted lamb leg was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. With a bite, the juice burst out in her mouth. It was so delicious that Su Ying wanted to swallow her tongue.

“Uncle Hea’s cooking is getting better and better.”

Apart from the roasted lamb, there was also roasted rabbit and even grilled fish Su Ying felt that Hea Shouyi probably thought that they were starving because of the reduction in expenses in the palace, so he was cooking for them in a variety of ways today.

Su Ying actually felt a little overstaffed after the meal.

She leaned back in her chair in satisfaction.

Bai Shuang quickly brought the tea to help with digestion to her. “Your Imperial Highness, it won’t be easy to sleep if you eat too much meat at night. Drink some digestion-aiding tea first.”

Su Ying waved her hand to turn her away. She had to rely on her own abilities to digest and absorb the meat that she had eaten by herself. All this time, she had never really felt overstaffed.

The main reason was that her aura was very strong, and her blood vitality circulated well. The functional ability of her internal organs was strong, so she was not worried about food acc.u.mulation due to poor digestion at all.

However, the two little ones were still young, and they had indeed eaten quite a lot today. Su Ying told Bai Shuang to place the digestion-aiding tea in front of them and let them drink it.

-Are we still going to the hot spring later?” Ever since Su Ying returned to the capital city, Xiao Jin’s cheeks had become visibly plumper, and he no longer looked as thin as before.

Su Ying was very satisfied with his current appearance. She could even pinch his face.

“Of course.”

After eating and drinking, soaking in a hot bath couldn’t be more comfortable. After resting for a while, Su Ying got ready to go soak in the hot spring with Xiao Jin, but Ji said that he wanted to study and wouldn’t follow them. Ling looked at Ji’s determined expression and wanted to say something but hesitated.

No! Big Brother must be trying to earn Mother’s praise for working so hard. She must not fall behind!

“Mother, I won’t be going either. I also want to stay in the room and study!” Ling proclaimed..
