Chapter 976 Yaoshou, I Became the Emperor 38

At the same time, he also attaches great importance to family ties.

Xi Ying guessed that Ji Duan might not really know that his other brothers were killed by Ji Ge, so he was still thinking that one day he would meet his brothers in the great rivers and mountains.

Nowadays, he relies on Ji Ge with great contradiction.

Why is it said to be a contradiction?

Because if you were completely dependent, you wouldn't leave Ji Ge to travel around the mountains and rivers.

The purpose of traveling around the mountains and rivers is to meet other brothers, and the reason for relying on Ji Ge is because the only brother Ji Duan can see at the moment is Ji Ge.

well.

Once she encounters this kind of family relationship thing, Xi Ying's heart will become extremely soft.

She will always feel good about people who value family affection.

Xi Ying took the initiative to swim in the direction of Ji Duan.

Hearing the sound of water, Ji Duan opened his eyes, "Brother Emperor?"

"Your hair is stuck to your face." Xi Ying reached out to help Ji Duan push the hair aside, "You are such an old person, don't you know how to take care of yourself?"

Ji Duan's heart trembled because of Xi Ying's action.

He and Ji Ge have the same father, and his mother-in-law died when he was young.

Except for his wet nurse, he had never been treated so tenderly by anyone else.

Even Ji Ge in the past only expressed concern verbally.

"Brother Emperor..." Ji Duan's nose felt sore and his vision became blurry.

"Fool." Xi Ying touched Ji Duan's head and patted his shoulder. "If you get tired from traveling outside, don't go out again. Stay in Kyoto and I will protect you."

Xi Ying did not act on his own initiative.

From Ji Ge's attitude towards Ji Duan, she can also see Ji Ge's concern for Ji Duan.

After all, Ji Duan is his last younger brother, and Ji Ge also cherishes this brotherhood.

What Xi Ying said was what Ji Ge had always wanted to say but had not said it.

Ji Ge's emotions are relatively reserved, and as an emperor, he is not as free and easy as Xi Ying in many cases.

After Ji Duan heard Xi Ying's words, he couldn't hold back his tears.

In fact, he was tired of playing and looking for a long time ago.

But for such a long time, he still had to go out every once in a while.

It seems that this has become a habit, something that will feel strange if you don't do it.

Ji Duan also hoped that one day he could hear the emperor's brother telling him not to be so tired anymore.

He didn't expect that such a day would actually happen.

"Brother Imperial!" Ji Duan suddenly threw himself into Xi Ying's arms.

Really just a child.

Xi Ying also acts as a close big sister, oh no, a close big brother.

On this night, I had a heart-to-heart talk with Ji Duan.

I heard Ji Duan tell anecdotes about him being outside for so many years, and how he missed his hometown when he was alone outside.

It wasn't until Xi Ying went to the morning court the next day that Ji Duan returned home to rest.

After the morning court, Xi Ying went to Le Palace.

The door of Le Palace was no longer closed, and Xi Ying walked in without any hindrance.

"The Emperor has arrived -" Gan Yue greeted.

"Good luck to your Majesty." The palace maids and eunuchs greeted Xi Ying.

Xi Ying responded to them twice and stepped into the room.

Ji Ge was sitting and drinking tea.

"Don't bow to me when you see me. I think your arrogance is getting bigger and bigger." Xi Ying said deliberately.

"Your Majesty, good luck." Ji Ge said very perfunctorily.

"You go down first." Xi Ying said to Gan Yue.

"My slave obeys your orders."

Gan Yue already knew the way the emperor and Le Guiren got along.
