Chapter 616: Go Find Marquis Yongye
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xie Yinxiang instantly felt bitter when she heard this.
She didn’t know how to console Gu Nuo’er and could only reach out her hand to take Gu Nuo’er’s hand.
“Nuo’er, Nanny Hu is kindhearted. Heavens will bless her with a long life.”
Gu Nuo’er didn’t say anything. Her thick and dark lashes lowered, casting shadows on her small face that was like white porcelain.
Xie Yinxiang sat with her silently for a while.
Only then did the child seem to perk up. “Elder Sister Yinxiang, you can go back first! I’ll sit for a while longer then go back to the palace.”
Xie Yinxiang felt a little worried, “But you…
“Don’t worry, the shop is already closed, so there won’t be any customers coming anymore. I’ll leave after that batch of pastries is done!” Gu Nuo’er wiped off the glistening tears on her face.
She smiled innocently, her eyes as clear as two streams of blue ripples.
Xie Yinxiang knew that Gu Nuo’er wanted to have some alone time.
She pursed her lips and thought about it, then stopped persisting.
“Alright, I’ll go back first. Nuo’er, be happier. Otherwise, Nanny Hu will be worried too.”
Gu Nuo’er nodded obediently.
She watched as Xie Yinxiang left, leaving only her small figure in the room.
Xie Yinxiang walked for a distance but was still a little worried.
She didn’t know how to comfort the child, but Marquis Yongye definitely knew.
He was usually with Her Highness.
However, Xie Yinxiang didn’t know where to go to look for Marquis Yongye.
At this moment, a call rang out from the side, “Eldest Young Miss Xie!” Xie Yinxiang turned around and saw Old Jiang staggering over.
“Grandpa Jiang, why didn’t you go have fun with Miss Ning and the others?”
Old Jiang waved his hand. “I knew that you will definitely also be sent out by the little princess in a while, so I specially waited here. Is Her Highness still feeling down?”
Xie Yinxiang pursed her lips and let out a soft sigh. “Nuo’er is kindhearted and innocent. Nanny Hu is getting old and her heart aches for Nanny Hu. It’s good to let her have some alone time too. Grandpa Jiang, you must take care of yourself too. Don’t make her even sadder.”
Old Jiang kept his hands behind his back and laughed. “I’m still going strong.
However, we can’t just let the little princess stay by herself like this.”
“I was just about to go to General Bail s residence to ask if Marquis Yongye is in. He often stays with Her Highness. Perhaps Her Highness will be happy to see the Marquis.”
“I specially waited for you here for this matter.” Old Jiang said, “When Her Highness came, she said that Marquis Yongye is training soldiers today. He’s probably at the training field now.”
He patted his legs. “I’m old and my legs aren’t good. My body won’t be able to take the journey. You’re young. Take a carriage and you’ll be there soon.”
When Xie Yinxiang heard this, she quickly thanked him. “I’ll go take a look now.”
After bidding farewell to Old Master Jiang, Xie Yinxiang rode her family’s carriage to the training grounds.
The training grounds were a place that the government provided for military officials to train or spar.
Such places were usually not situated in the palace but would be in a bigger place in the capital’s suburbs.
As most of the matches were between men, usually, no girls had come before.
Xie Yinxiang got off the carriage at the entrance of the training grounds and heard the thunderous sound of martial arts practice.
She went in and came into two soldiers who had their upper bodies exposed.
They didn’t seem to expect a girl to come.
Xie Yinxiang quickly covered her eyes. The two soldiers also walked away quickly in embarra.s.sment.
She clutched her chest and exhaled.
Thinking that she had to find Ye Siming for Nuo’er, Xie Yinxiang suppressed her thoughts of wanting to beat a retreat.
There were a few tents around. She walked around and heard a cold voice say—
“Your abilities should be used to kill enemies on the battlefield and for pointing your blades at your own people..”
