Chapter 49
"Princess!" Eunuch Zhang, who was standing beside Gu Yunchen, shouted in disbelief.

His footsteps were a little messy, and he walked up to Gu Yunxi. After looking up and down, Lao Lei said excitedly:
"Princess, it's really you, you're back!"

While wiping away his tears, Eunuch Zhang said, "That's great, if the late emperor knew that the princess was still alive, he would be able to rest in peace."

There was a gratified smile on his face, and a pair of old eyes were slightly red.

Looking at Eunuch Zhang's white hair and slightly curved back, Gu Yunxi couldn't help but get red eyes.

When his father was still a prince, Eunuch Zhang took care of his daily necessities until his father passed away.

The two have been with each other for dozens of years, and the father suddenly left. Eunuch Zhang must not be able to accept it for a while.

No wonder he aged so much.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back." Eunuch Zhang was still feeling emotional.

"What is the father-in-law talking about? My daughter-in-law can't understand." Although Gu Yunxi couldn't bear it, she still ruthlessly denied it.

After all, everyone in the world knows that Princess Chaoyun is dead, so she can only be the second lady of the Shangshu Mansion, Lin Xi.

Eunuch Zhang was stunned. Looking at the woman in front of him, he felt that it was impossible for him to admit his mistake.

He watched Princess Chaoyun grow up. He had no children. To put it bluntly, in his heart, Princess Chaoyun was just like his own child.

How could he have mistaken his child!
"The courtier's daughter is the second lady of the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of Rites." Gu Yunxi said calmly.

Eunuch Zhang looked at the woman in front of him, she was young, and she was indeed a little younger than the princess.

But is there really such a similar person in the world!
Not only the appearance, but even the demeanor of the gestures are exactly the same!
"Give me a seat." Gu Yunchen ordered in a slightly immature voice.

Two young eunuchs immediately moved over a rosewood chair and placed it behind Gu Yunxi.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Yunxi sat on the chair behind her and looked at Gu Yunchen with a smile.

At this time, the expression of grievance just now on Gu Yunchen's face has disappeared, replaced by a serious face.

Although his body still looks like a small person, the majesty of his body is already impossible to ignore.

Although Gu Yunchen tried his best to pretend to be serious, Gu Yunxi could still see his liking and intimacy for her from his star-like eyes.

Having not seen each other for four years, Gu Yunxi felt that Yunchen was not much different from what she remembered except that he had grown a lot taller.

He used to always like to stare at himself like this, his eyes were wide open, very flattering.

"Your Majesty, it's time to practice calligraphy. The regent will come to check after lunch." Eunuch Zhang said in a low voice.

Gu Yunchen reluctantly looked away, looking at the copybook in front of him, a trace of impatience flashed in his eyes.

He looked up at Gu Yunxi again, still silently picked up the brush in hand, frowning and wrote earnestly.

A serious look of a little adult.

Gu Yunxi looked at Yun Chen's swollen cheeks, and felt a little funny in her heart.

There is no reason for a minister to check the emperor's homework, she saw that Shen Zhi and Yun Chen were not like monarchs and ministers, but more like father and son.
Gu Yunxi imagined the scene where the two of them, the elder and the younger, were all stern, and couldn't help but chuckle.

Hearing Gu Yunxi's faint laughter, Gu Yunchen slightly raised his head to look at her, and the corner of his mouth secretly evoked a faint smile.

Then it disappeared for a moment.

He put down the brush in his hand, climbed off the half-height chair with a twist of his buttocks, and walked towards Gu Yunxi.

"Your Majesty, where are you going?" Eunuch Zhang asked, "You haven't finished practicing this character yet."

Gu Yunchen did not answer Eunuch Zhang's question, but stood in front of Gu Yunxi, raised his head and said:

"I want to go to the imperial garden to release paper kites."

"This..." Gu Yunxi felt a little embarrassed, "After His Majesty finishes practicing calligraphy, will the ministers accompany His Majesty?"

"But I want to go now." Gu Yunchen's originally bright eyes darkened instantly.

How could Gu Yunxi bear his wronged appearance, thinking of Yun Chen staying alone in the palace, without even a playmate by his side, her heart ached.

So without any further hesitation, he said, "The court lady accompanied your majesty to release the paper kites."

"Ah."

Gu Yunchen looked at Gu Yunxi and nodded slightly, the corners of his eyes were crooked, it could be seen that he was in a good mood.

"Eunuch Zhang, hurry up and get the paper kite I made." Gu Yunchen turned his head and ordered.

Then, without waiting for Eunuch Zhang to follow, he dragged Gu Yunxi to the imperial garden.

Although Gu Yunchen still looked expressionless, his cheerful steps had already revealed the joy in his heart.

The sun is shining today, and there is a breeze in the imperial garden, which is a good weather for putting paper kites.

"Your Majesty, wait for this old slave."

Eunuch Zhang followed behind panting, holding a gray and white kite in the shape of an eagle in his hand.

"Your Majesty likes making paper kites?" Gu Yunxi asked.

She looked at the paper kite in Eunuch Zhang's hand, the painting was lifelike, even the colors on it were smudged very carefully, it can be seen that Yun Chen worked very hard.

"I don't like it." Gu Yunchen lowered his head slightly and looked at the paper kite in his hand, and said in a deep voice,

I don't know what to think of, it seems a little sad.

Seeing that Gu Yunchen was in a low mood, Gu Yunxi wanted to make him happier, so she praised:
"Your Majesty's craftsmanship is really good, even better than the master craftsmen I know."

"I never let go of this paper kite." Gu Yunchen did not respond to Gu Yunxi's words, but said in a low voice to himself.

Gu Yunxi couldn't see what Yun Chen was thinking, so she asked puzzledly:
"Since your Majesty has done it, why not let it go?"

"Someone promised me that when I can fly the kite alone, I will make a unique paper kite and give it to me as a birthday present."

Gu Yunchen slowly raised his head and continued: "But she missed the appointment, so I can only do it myself."

"And she also said that she would release paper kites with me, and I've been waiting for it too." Gu Yunchen looked at Gu Yunxi, without blinking her eyes, and said seriously.

The whole person seemed a little nervous, his small hands clenched into fists, and his eyelashes trembled slightly when he spoke.

Gu Yunchen's words were like a blunt knife, cutting her heart one by one, making her heart ache.

Not long after I got married to the Prime Minister's Mansion back then, my concubine mother sent someone to deliver a letter to me, saying that it was Yun Chen who was arguing to see me every day, which made her uneasy.

So she asked herself to write a letter to Yun Chen to coax him.

When Gu Yunxi saw the kites flying in the sky outside the window, it was so unrestrained that people yearned for it.

Subconsciously raised his hand to draw a picture, put it in an envelope and sent it to the palace.

Within a few days, Yun Chen wrote back saying that he liked it very much.

In the next six months, she would be asked in almost every letter when he would have his own kite.

She didn't even think about it at the time, so she wrote back:

When you grow up enough to fly a paper kite, Miss Huang will make the most powerful and unique kite with her own hands and give it to Yun Chen as a birthday present.

At that time, she thought that she still had a lot of future, so she made the promise easily.

However, he never thought that the accident would happen so quickly, leaving Yun Chen alone to keep this promise, and never let it go
