Chapter 215 The General Doesn’t Want Power, He Just Wants to Fall in Love 07
It didn't take long for him to finish the breakfast that Duan Ci brought. This time, he had a rare appetite, unlike before when he would just eat a few bites and then stop.
The two of them went out together and walked on the street.
There were not many people on the streets. After being incorporated into the new country, the people were unfamiliar with its laws and most of them stayed at home, and few came out.
Only some people sent by Da Qi helped repair the shops damaged in the war.
Zhou Ningxu, Duan Ci's deputy general, was watching from the side, giving instructions from time to time.
Seeing Duan Ci and the other man coming over, he bowed to them.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince, General."
"How are things going?"
Duan Ci nodded and asked.
"Everything is going well, and the people are being resettled."
"Okay, I'll go over and take a look."
Duan Ci was quite satisfied with the young man's efficiency, and he and Qi Jin walked towards another place while strolling.
Some people were affected by the war and became displaced. Duan Ci arranged for them to be resettled so that they would not lose their lives.
Looking at the people being rescued in an orderly manner, Qi Jin was surprised at Duan Ci's kindness.
If it were someone else, they would not care about the people here at all, and some might even burn, kill and loot.
"You can't catch me, Lululu!"
The child's innocent voice was full of joy. It was a rare sound of laughter after the battlefield.
The adults were busy rebuilding their new home, and a group of little kids were playing and fighting.
Among them, there was a little boy who, while running, tripped over something and was about to fall forward.
Duan Ci noticed it and moved very quickly. Qi Jin felt a gust of wind passing by, and then saw him holding the little boy.
"Are you okay?"
He squatted down, his eyes level with the boy. His voice was gentle and soothing. Without the scary mask, he made people feel close to him.
The little boy looked at his handsome face and shook his head blankly. He thought that the brother in front of him was very handsome and gentle.
Duan Ci smiled gently and rubbed his head.
"Be careful."
He reminded them again and let them continue playing. When the little boy and his friends left, he couldn't help but look back at him.
Qi Jin was standing aside, looking down at him, seeing the smile on his face and the tenderness in his eyes.
This general seems to be gentle to everyone. It doesn't seem like he is pretending. It is the kind of gentleness that comes from the bottom of his heart and it is impossible to get annoyed by him.
Duan Ci stood up and looked back, and met Qi Jin's slightly thoughtful eyes.
"Your Highness."
He called him softly, and Qi Jin came back to his senses.
"What's wrong?"
"Let's go look somewhere else?"
The streets are no longer bustling because of the war, and there is nothing fun to do there.
Seeing that there was no problem here, Duan Ci thought of taking him somewhere else to have a look.
"Okay." Qi Jin had seen the imperial city of Beisheng before. He said that just to be able to stay with Duan Ci.
The two of them went for a walk somewhere else together. Seeing that things here were in order, Duan Ci stopped wandering around and went back to his residence with Qi Jin.
The people from the court have arrived, and they will set off for the capital tomorrow.
He was still the one who delivered Qi Jin's food. After watching him finish eating, Duan Ci went to prepare to leave.
Every time he ate, Qi Jin always had a feeling that Duan Ci wanted to feed him fat.
He looked at his arms, then at Duan Ci's body, which was tall and well-proportioned. He recalled the feeling of him hugging him before, with his broad and strong chest and his arms powerful.
Well, in comparison, he does seem to have lost some weight.
However, Qi Jin didn't feel annoyed by his feeding behavior. The food Duan Ci brought him was delicious and suited his appetite.
Seeing Duan Ci busying around, he narrowed his eyes, and a cunning look flashed in his eyes. He couldn't just sit there, he had to do something.
Considering Qi Jin's identity and his physical condition, Duan Ci wanted to find him a carriage, but perhaps because of the war, there was not even a decent carriage.
They are either broken or dirty and cannot be used at all.
Time does not allow Duan Ci and his team to stay in Beisheng for too long, which makes people feel a little embarrassed.
"I can ride, General."
Qi Jin didn't want to be delayed too much because of him, so he spoke first.
He was not a delicate man, so he had to ride in a carriage.
Duan Ci was a little worried, but after seeing his calm expression, he sighed helplessly. He could only leave it like this for now.
He thought about finding a carriage after passing other towns. Anyway, he didn't want to let his wife suffer at all.
Originally Duan Ci wanted to help Qi Jin get on the horse, but Qi Jin didn't need his help at all and climbed onto the horse cleanly and swiftly.
The man on the horse looked at Duan Ci's outstretched hand suspended in mid-air and blinked slightly. It seemed that he had missed an opportunity to have close contact with Duan Ci.
Duan Ci did not feel embarrassed. He naturally withdrew his hand and got on the horse.
Zhou Ningxu was behind them, seeing their interaction, he touched his chin, looking thoughtful.
Although the general was always friendly and polite to everyone, why did he feel that the general treated His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince differently?
