It wasn't until she was in the carriage that she said, "I don't want to go back until I'm fifteen years old."

Her birthday was at the end of the year, and she was still more than half a month from her fifteen years old.

Could it be that he had been living in the Duke's Mansion all this time?

Jeon Jungkook didn't want to do it, after all, it wasn't his own home, so it wasn't convenient for him to do anything. Also, Xie Yeri always came to find Xie Lisa, so it was better for him to go back to his home.

But since she said so, she made up her mind, and he couldn't change it though he didn't want to.

She stayed at the Duke Dingguo's Mansion for nearly a month on the grounds that Madam Dara was ill and that she had come back to take care of her.

During this period, the Sixth Prince frequently visited the Duke Dingguo's Mansion. Even if someone wanted to gossip, they had nothing to say. Adding to the fact that Xie Lisa would reach her fifteen years old a month later, it made sense for her to stay in the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

On the twenty-fifth of December, she was called up early.

All the female elders of the family came to the ancestral hall, the old lady and the several madams sat together, and the Madam Dara held the ceremony of fifteen years old for Xie Lisa. One by one, her clothes were added to her body. After kowtowing to the elders, she followed the Madam Dara to the banquet and greeted the madam, only ending after half a day.

She was fifteen years old now.

Returning to her own side room in the Jade Yard, she was about to ask Shuang Yu to take off his clothes, when Jeon Jungkook rushed back from the palace. He hurried into the house and saw Xie Lisa standing by the window.

He suddenly stopped.

He wore a dark-green, gold-embroidered peony sleeveless shirt with a ribbon around his waist, which he squeezed tightly around his waist. Her hair was tied into a bun, and her hair was piled into a messy pile. Her hair was as fine as the clouds, making her small face as white and flawless as jade. As he entered the room, the wind blew in from the outside, lifting the jade pendant around her waist and tinkling it.

She looked back at him, a little surprised. "Why are you back?"

When he'd left this morning, he'd said that His Majesty had summoned him for an urgent matter. She'd thought he'd come back by nightfall, but hadn't expected that he'd come back before nightfall.

Jeon Jungkook walked towards her step by step, letting the maids on both sides leave. It was probably because the cold wind outside had gotten into his throat. His voice was extremely hoarse. "Have you finished your ceremony of fifteen years old birthday?"

"There are still some guests outside, but I'm not going to go, so I want to rest in the house."

He looked at her unblinkingly, a little flustered.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

Instead, he led her to the bed, where she kept the clothes the Shuang Yu had brought in. He helped her to stand and asked solemnly, "I wasn't there for the ceremony. Who dressed you?"

Xie Lisa didn't understand. "Mother."

He nodded, a hint of uneasiness flashing across his face, his hands burning. "Then I'll change your clothes."

As he spoke, he covered his embarrassment with a cough.

What does this have anything to do with her mother dressing her up? He really could make it up!

His hand was on her waist, however, and he untied the ribbon. She wanted to stop him, so she hurriedly reached out her hand to stop him. "No ..."

He put his hand on her shoulder and looked up at her with a look that was very different from his usual, dark and steady, with a soul-wrenching appeal.

She froze, mesmerized by the eyes.

Jeon Jungkook took advantage of this opportunity to take off her dark green blouse, revealing her deep clothes inside.He took them off one by one, gently and carefully, like a flower bud that was about to bloom, he was the first one to see the beauty of her hidden in the petals.

Seeing that she was about to be peeled off again, all that was left of her was a underwear with red embroidered flowers. Xie Lisa insisted on not letting him take it off, "I'll do it myself, you can go out ..."

Jeon Jungkook pretended not to hear and pressed her onto his lap, directly peeling her clean.

Fortunately, there were no maids in the room, otherwise, Xie Lisa would really die of embarrassment here. Even so, in the daylight, she was too ashamed to face anyone. She desperately tried to burrow into Jeon Jungkook's embrace, crying: "You're shameless!"

Opposite the bed was the window, and there was no guarantee that there would be servants walking under the window. Jeon Jungkook carried her to bed and let down the curtains on both sides of the bed. The curtain blocked the light, and for a moment the vision was blurred, and she tried to wrap herself in the quilt, but he wouldn't let her to do so. he tied her arms and legs in the way of her whole body against him.

She was about to struggle again when he said in her ear, "Lamb."

All that was left of her was a underwear and a pair of silk pants, but he was so neatly dressed that she found it unfair.

She bit him on the arm and said angrily, "Don't call me."

He did not pull away. After being bitten by her, he did not say a word. With a voice full of worry, he said, "father wants me go to the border in spring."

When he entered the palace today, the Emperor Jeon Gong Yo told him about this.

The two cities needed to be rebuilt. After the last battle, no one in the city was in charge of this matter. The city lord, He Lianzhen, had abandoned the city and fled, leaving tens of thousands of citizens unmoved. After he defeated the Western barbarians, Emperor Jeon Gong Yo ordered people to capture He Lianzhen. In the end, he was captured by a small temple a few hundred miles away from the city, and he was given a death sentence. As a result, the reconstruction of the city became even more distant. It was said that Wu Qiang was in dire straits and that the lives of the people were not good. Therefore, it was urgent to rebuild the two cities. In the end, the Emperor Jeon Gong Yo decided to send Jeon Jungkook and Xie Jiyong to the border gates.

This was a good thing for Xie Jiyong, but for Jeon Jungkook ... Not so good.

Emperor Jeon Gong Yo wouldn't let the Jeon Namjoon go, but letting him go would only make Jeon Wen aware of the sense of danger and hasten the conflict between Jeon Namjoon and the Crown Prince. Perhaps the Jeon Namjoon would still be fighting and there would be great turmoil in the imperial court by then.

Jeon Jungkook was on the Crown Prince's side. If the Crown Prince was in trouble, he would not be well either.

Furthermore ... It would take him at least a year or two, maybe three or five years, and how could he bear to be separated for Xie Lisa  so long?

Unfortunately, Emperor Jeon Gong Yo didn't understand his vexation, so he set out in March after the spring, it was urgent for him to do so.

That was why she felt that there was something wrong when he came back today.
