Aww! Myriad beasts clear the way, the milk sweet beast owner is four and a half years old

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... What a unique sight." Mu Shixing crossed his arms and looked at Mu Shiyan and Mu Jingyan with great interest, "I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would see the second brother and the seventh brother sharing the same hatred."

"If I can help you two regain the brotherhood, there's no harm in me being shameless."

"As the saying goes, I am not as good as hell..."

Mu Shiyan saw the right opportunity, grabbed an apple from the low table and stuffed it into Mu Shixing's mouth, "Shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, believe it or not, I will kick you out of the car."

"Uh huh." Mu Shixing nodded with a smile, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed, looking like a fox with a big tail.

Mu Yinyin watched her three brothers bickering curiously, and for some reason she thought of Mu Shiqi again.

"Yinyin, what are you thinking about?" Mu Jingyan saw Mu Yinyin staring blankly with her big eyes, thinking that she was frightened, and comforted her in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, second brother and fourth brother are usually like this, they

You're joking."

"Yinyin is not afraid." Mu Yinyin came back to her senses and smiled cutely, "Yinyin was thinking of the fifth brother. Originally, Yinyin also invited the fifth brother to come with her, but the fifth brother said he wanted to study."

"But Yinyin heard that the fifth brother's mother-in-law is sick and needs the fifth brother to take care of her, so the fifth brother can't come with her."

"By the way, seventh brother, after that powerful miracle doctor has seen your mother and concubine, can you ask him to also see fifth brother's mother and concubine?"

After her words fell, the entire carriage fell into silence, so quiet that one could even clearly hear the voices of passers-by outside the carriage.

Mu Yinyin looked at the three people with serious expressions in confusion, and pinched her chubby little fingers nervously.

Could it be...did she say something wrong?

Mu Shixing spread out his fan with a "swish" sound, breaking the somewhat low-pressure silence, "Xiao Yinyin is really kind-hearted."

"However, the illness of your fifth brother, mother and concubine is a bit difficult. I'm afraid even the best doctor Xue in the world is helpless."

"Ang, is that so?" Mu Yinyin lowered her head in disappointment, pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice, "You can't cure everyone, how dare you claim to be the best in the world? It's so funny."

At the same time, the imperial palace and the cold palace.

Mu Shiqi had already changed out of the indigo brocade robe he wore during class. At this time, he was only wearing a plain robe and looked even thinner.

He sat in the yard, grinding herbs and reading medical books.

From time to time, a pitiful cry came from around him, but he was completely unaffected, and his hands continued to perform their duties.

"Bao'er..."

Mu Shiqi paused, put down the book in his hand, stood up, and slowly approached the dark and dilapidated house not far away.

The furniture in that room was very limited, just a bed and a table.

There was a woman leaning on the bed. Although her face was a little pale, she could still see the shadow of her former glory.

"Mother Concubine." Mu Shiqi walked up to Concubine Ning, bowed politely, then knelt down by the bed, lowered his head, and made a posture of listening to instructions.

Concubine Ning seemed to have been used to his reaction for a long time, and nodded with satisfaction, "Why did you come back so early today?"

"Back to my concubine, the Imperial College has temporarily taken a day off." Mu Shiqi answered concisely and concisely, without mentioning what happened in the Imperial College today.

"Holiday?" Concubine Ning frowned, a hint of madness flashed in her eyes, "Since your grandfather founded the Imperial Academy, you have never had a holiday."

"Ji'er, are you lying to your mother and concubine?"

Mu Shiqi's eyes slowly lowered, and he answered numbly, "When I return to my mother, I have no children."

"You still refuse to tell the truth!" Concubine Ning slapped her palm on the bed excitedly. She didn't know where it was affected, and she started coughing repeatedly, which dyed her pale face a touch of blood. "What did my mother-in-law tell you on weekdays?

Your grandfather was killed by a traitor and died unjustly in prison."

"He is still waiting for you to clear his name."

"If you don't study hard and inherit his mantle, how will you let your grandfather sleep in silence, and how will your mother and concubine explain to your grandfather when she gets there in the future!"

Seeing Concubine Ning almost fainting from coughing, Mu Shiqi tightened his fists on the side of her tights and said resignedly, "I know I was wrong. Concubine, mother, calm down."

Concubine Ning took a breath and suppressed the smell of blood in her throat, "It seems that my mother has neglected to discipline you recently, which is why you are like this."

"Go and collect your punishment. You don't need to eat lunch or dinner today."

"Take this as a warning and never do it again."

"Yes." Mu Shiqi kowtowed to Concubine Ning expressionlessly, stood up and walked out of the yard, heading straight to the most deserted place behind the cold palace.

As long as he can remember, he has always been punished by Concubine Ning for various reasons.

When he was a child, he was ignorant and only thought that he had done something wrong.

Later, he gradually discovered the strangeness of Concubine Ning, and also understood the difference between himself and other princes in the palace.

Prince...

Haha, the word prince is a joke when applied to him.

Mu Shiqi took off his outer robe, fetched cold well water and poured it on himself.

This was the punishment Concubine Ning had set for him, and it was said to keep him awake.

It was late autumn now, and the well water was extremely cold. There was only one bucket of water, which made him shiver from the cold.

Just when he was getting the second bucket of well water to pour on his head, he heard a familiar cat meowing not far from the next door, mixed with curses.

"Catch it! Don't let it get away!"

He hesitated for a moment, then put down the barrel and walked over.

The cold palace is called a "palace" but it is actually a small, dilapidated courtyard. Mu Shiqi has grown up in it since he was a child and is very familiar with the place.

Soon he looked for the sound and found the place.

He hid behind a tree and watched for a while, and found that several palace maids and eunuchs were catching a cat.

And that cat, to him, looked exactly like the royal cat that the little guy was holding in his arms.

Mu Yinyin's cute round face appeared in his mind unconsciously, as well as the situation when the other party invited him to go out to the palace to play together.

For sixteen years, he has been living a life of neither humans nor ghosts in this palace.

Although the palace maids and eunuchs called him "Fifth Highness", they all laughed behind his back that he was a crazy child.

Not to mention that someone would invite him to play with him.

It's a pity that he has long been accustomed to being alone.

Mu Shiqi turned around indifferently and left as if he hadn't seen anything.

Outside the palace, Mu Yinyin was holding a pile of food in her arms, her little face almost bursting with laughter.

Just now, her seventh brother suddenly bought her all the things she asked about, and she couldn't be happier.

"Seventh brother, I also want to buy sweet-scented osmanthus cake." Mu Yinyin still remembered her promise to bring something to the prince, her little eyes were shining with a smile, "I want the kind sold on the street, the steaming kind!

"

"Do you still know about sweet-scented osmanthus cake?" Mu Shiyan raised his eyebrows and glanced at her, "Have you never been out of the palace?"
