Bab 642: The Reason for not Going to Royal Palace

Jing Jiu led Liu Shisui into the Jing House and arrived in the courtyard where there used to be a begonia tree.

Xiao He was cleaning up the broken pieces of a ceramic bowl. Seeing the two of them, she let out a surprised and joyful cry, but bowed to the ground hastily after she came back to her senses.

Liu Shisui walked over and knelt down on the ground beside her, bowing referentially to Jing Jiu.

"Is this the ritual of marriage?" asked Jing Jiu.

Liu Shisui mused that this could be counted as a marriage ritual so long as Jing Jiu thought so.

As the gate of the courtyard was opened slightly, Jing Li walked in swiftly. He knelt down on the ground with a thud, his shoulders trembling somewhat; but he couldn't cry out.

Seeing this aged man with gray hairs on his temples, Jing Jiu sighed helplessly.

…

…

His name was Jing Jiu in this lifetime.

This Jing House near Taichang Temple was considered by him as his family.
