Chapter 389 Sister Urges Marriage
Xia Yining, who stayed in the fourth city, was very happy when he learned that the little brother had arrived.
I guess everything in Xiaotian Village has been dealt with, and my parents have returned to the capital.
He didn't want to wait any longer, so he handed the matter over to Xi Zhiyi, and Chi Yan also stayed to help.
He returned to Tiansheng City with the rest of the people around him and headed straight for the best house in the city.
The prefect's mansion was in chaos at the time. A servant of He Xinglang happened to go out and was very surprised when he saw the newcomer.
He jumped up and down on the spot for a while, then quickly bowed and said, "My humble servant greets the eldest princess. Young Master He is inside. I will take you in."
Xia Yining still remembered him: "Okay, you guys have worked hard along the way."
He Xinglang was discussing the next steps with the agricultural officials in the study when he heard a bustling noise outside.
He was delighted and quickly stood up and walked out, and saw that the person who came was Ning'er's sister.
She was dressed in red makeup and golden armor, which made her skin look even whiter and more delicate. Her hair was tied up high like ink-colored silk, and fell lightly on her shoulders.
Beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows like a dream, a pair of clean and flawless eyes as bright as stars, and dimples faintly visible on the cheeks due to a faint smile. That face is so beautiful, cold and people dare not look directly at it.
After not seeing her for many days, my sister's aura has become even stronger.
He Xinglang saw that she was safe and sound, a smile appeared on his face, and he knelt down first to salute.
"Your humble servant greets the eldest princess Anfu."
The others behind him came to their senses from the astonishing beauty, their faces flushed. How could they be so distracted by the sight of an unmarried woman?
What's more, she was a famous princess, which was extremely disrespectful, so she quickly knelt down.
Xia Yining frowned slightly, knowing that his younger brother was the one who understood the rules the best. Now, if he said he was a young master from aristocratic family, people would believe him.
She dodged slightly and avoided his salute.
"It's okay, everyone please stand up, you have all worked hard along the way.
From now on, the construction of Tiansheng City will be handed over to you, and I will be lazy."
This kind of joke made everyone feel relieved and they stood up.
[Princess, please rest assured. The new emperor asked you to come here to assist you and the prefect.]
[We will definitely do our best to build Nanxu's borders and make them the best and most prosperous cities. ]
[Yes, yes, yes, now we have everything. In three years, it will be the same as other places, or even better.]
[All this is thanks to the princess. It is because of the grain you provided that the people can live a good life.]
[To be honest, even the farmers in my village can get a lot of food, and I heard that their children are going to school. ]
[Indeed, the eldest princess has done many good things, which make you all admire her.]
Xia Yining was also happy to hear these words. This was the color she left in this world, and it would be great if there could be some changes.
“You are all too polite, I am only doing what I can.
As the saying goes: If you are rich, you can help the world; if you are poor, you can take care of yourself.
Since I accept the support of the people, I will naturally give back to the people. It is not worth mentioning. "
When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was very surprised. It was the first time they heard such words.
Even He Xinglang repeated these words several times, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at sister Ning'er.
“Well, the princess said it very well.
If you are rich, you can help the world; if you are poor, you can take care of yourself.
Listening to your words is really better than reading ten years of books. In the future, I will learn more from the princess." He Xinglang's eyes were excited and doting.
He wanted to run outside and show off to others that this was his sister.
Nanxu's princess who protects the country is also the general today. She is the one who captured four cities in one fell swoop and ensured that the people had enough food to eat.
After a few more words, the rest of the group instinctively stepped back to give the brother and sister room to talk.
When the two chatted, they either talked about the border or their families in the capital, and they intentionally or unintentionally avoided the topic of Oda Village.
Upon learning that he was here to be the prefect, Xia Yining was slightly dissatisfied, with a frown on her beautiful face.
"What is the new emperor thinking? Sending you to this place is clearly a bullying?"
He Xinglang heard the atmosphere in her tone and chuckled.
“Not really. The new emperor thought that with you at the border, we siblings would have a better understanding of each other’s cooperation.
Once the border situation is over, I will definitely be transferred back to the capital. With my achievements abroad, the position I will get when I return will definitely not be low.
By then, we can shut up other people and make our journey smoother."
He figured these out while he was on the road. It must be said that the new emperor really cared about the eldest princess.
Even the people around her took advantage of her.
"I see, maybe there have been too many things going on recently and my brain isn't working well anymore, so I actually wrongly accused the new emperor.
What we said today should only be known between you and me, brother and sister. Don’t let anyone else know.
Otherwise, the new emperor will definitely take the opportunity to act pitiful and cry~~~~~"
Seeing her frightened expression, He Xinglang burst out laughing. He didn't expect that his sister, who was fearless outside, would be so scared of the new emperor.
"Okay, okay, I promise not to let anyone tell anyone."
The two of them had a meal at the prefect's house, which had nothing, and even the few dishes were put together at the last minute.
While eating, Xia Yining looked at the huge prefectural mansion and muttered a few words.
“Young man, you are about the same age. If you meet someone you like, you can get married sooner. There will also be someone to help you take care of the backyard.
You don't have to make do like this if you're alone. It will be more refined if someone is taking care of you.
However, you can't be as chauvinistic as others and let your wife stay in the backyard after getting married.
Neither our He family nor the Zuo Xiang Mansion has this rule. "
He Xinglang found it funny and flicked her little head with his finger.
“Other people’s brothers take care of their sisters, but you’re the other way around.
When did you become so nagging that you even came to urge your little brother to get married?"
She looked at him speechlessly. How old is she now, but her little brother is still the same as when he was a child.
He snorted coldly and said, "That's natural, you know Ning'er is always good at speaking at home.
Even if you are my brother, I should show some concern for you."
That tsundere look actually has a bit of a little girl's demeanor, which makes people feel soft inside.
He Xinglang pretended to be scared and begged for mercy, "Okay, okay, I will remember this and find you a sister-in-law soon, okay?
Hey~~~You are really a little ancestor."
"Hmph~~~ Good to know. If you make me unhappy, I will complain when I return to the capital and let my parents deal with you."
After the brother and sister stood up, they walked towards the backyard while talking. He Xinglang had someone clean up the best yard for her to live in from now on.
