The third prince, Gu Ziyao, smiled coldly. “This East Defender General has always been like this. He’s very arrogant and despotic just because his ancestors have some merits.
“None of the soldiers he led are capable. Most of them just learned his craftiness. If it wasn’t for the fact that there were lives at stake and I couldn’t stand watching this as a medical pract.i.tioner, I wouldn’t have helped him.”
Gu Nuo’er sat between her two older brothers. She held onto a hot teacup in her small hands and lowered her head to take a sip.
The hot tea was sweet and the taste of gardenias bloomed along her tongue, flowing down to her lungs.
Wow, it felt so warm.
The child said softly, “Third Brother, don’t be angry. He has already suffered the torture he deserves. When we return to the palace later, we’ll just tell Father what happened.”
Gu Ziyao looked at his sister and couldn’t help but ask, “Nuo’er, did you really dream of that prescription?”
Gu Nuo’er put down the teacup and snorted angrily. “Third Brother doesn’t believe me. The prescription has already worked, yet you still do not believe that what Baby Nuo said is true.
“If I didn’t dream of it, then where did I see it from? I’m only three years old!”
After she finished speaking, she even put out four fingers.
Later on, she realized that she had put out one extra finger and quickly drew one of them back.
“That’s right. Third Brother, you’re too insensible. Sister is a lucky star that’s hard to come by. What’s so surprising about dreaming about a mere prescription?”
After the second prince, Gu Zitang, finished speaking, he eagerly refilled his sister’s teacup.
He smiled with his peach blossom eyes curved. “If there’s a next time, can Sister help to dream about the secrets to getting rich and share them with your brother?”
Gu Nuo’er let out a snort. “Baby Nuo won’t be able to dream that!”
After saying that, she puffed up her stomach and lay flat in the carriage.
Then, she rolled up the thin blanket at the side and wrapped her cute little body into a glutinous rice dumpling.
Gu Nuo’er narrowed her eyes. “Baby Nuo is sleepy~”
The third prince seemed like he wanted to say something but hesitated. He actually wanted to acknowledge his younger sister as his teacher.
If she were to dream of any other prescriptions in the future, he wanted to ask her to tell him about them quickly.
However, he saw Gu Nuo’er open her small mouth and let out a long yawn. Her big eyes were filled with sleepiness.
He reached out his hand and gently brushed his sister’s stray hair away, speaking in a warm voice. “Get some sleep. You’ve worked hard today.”
When the second prince, Gu Zitang, saw this, he didn’t want to be outdone. He also reached out his hand and tidied his sister’s bun hairstyle on the other side.
He also pretended to be gentle. “Sleep well, Nuo’er. Brother will watch over you.”
Gu Nuo’er’s two older brothers pinched the little buns on each side. At first, the child only frowned slightly to show her dissatisfaction.
In the end, she got impatient. She waved her fair hands and said fiercely, “Second Brother, Third Brother, stop it!”
She held onto her head with her two small hands, her pink face filled with distress.
Gu Zitang glared at the third prince. “Third Brother, hurry up and let go. You’re messing up Sister’s hair.”
The third prince was not to be outdone. “Second Brother, it takes one to know one.”
Gu Nuo’er shrank her entire body into the blanket and hid her head. However, her b.u.t.t was exposed instead.
It was quiet in the carriage and they were moving very slowly. It didn’t take long before she fell asleep.
The second prince was afraid that his sister would suffocate, so he gently pulled open the blanket.
Gu Nuo’er’s small face had a pink flush and she looked like an extremely exquisite porcelain doll.
Her small hands were curled up like a cat’s paws and placed by her cheek.
The second prince gently carried Gu Nuo’er in his arms.
His sister was really too adorable.
