"Why did Your Highness say this?"

Xie Rujin didn't understand what she meant, so he had to calm himself down first.

In the face of such a major event, no matter how delicious the food is, it will seem tasteless.

Qin Yaoguang raised her head slightly and looked towards Qingbai.

Qing Bai stepped forward and placed an envelope sealed with wax in front of Xie Rujin.

"Master Xie, please pass this letter to the Grand Tutor."

Qin Yaoguang said slowly: "Just think of it as my little reward to your Xie family."

Xie Rujin looked at her, feeling unhappy.

He sat here, not in the same world as her, and he couldn't even understand what she was saying.

And the eldest princess is the one who can play games with his father.

And I, apart from being her savior, am nothing in front of her.

After finishing the meal, he didn't know what he had eaten.

I had no impression of the taste of the food. All I had in my mind were Qin Yaoguang's eyes as bright as stars and my heart that was deeply moved by her.

When he got home, he rushed to his father's study with the letter from Qin Yaoguang in his pocket.

This feeling of playing guessing is so uncomfortable!

He wanted an answer quickly.

Under the candlelight, Xie Shu read Qin Yaoguang's letter carefully, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

boom!

Xie Shu slammed the table with his palm, causing the tea to splash everywhere.

"How dare you do something right under my nose, collude with both insiders and outsiders, and abuse your power for personal gain!"

Hanjia Granary is the government granary closest to the capital.

If the victims were far away, even if something really happened, the imperial court would send troops to encircle and suppress them, but it would not affect him.

But now, all the civil and military officials in the court are looking at him!

If it weren't for Qin Yaoguang's letter, he would have thought everything was under control and was just waiting for the food to arrive and stabilize prices.

"Father, don't be angry."

Xie Rujin hurried forward and helped him sit down.

Xie Shu's face was as gloomy as water. After thinking for a moment, he called his staff in and gave a series of instructions.

As the night deepened, the light in the study of the Grand Tutor's Mansion remained on for half the night.

In the Princess's Mansion, Qin Yaoguang finished taking a medicinal bath, closed her eyes and lay on the couch, allowing the maid to massage her body and dry her hair.

The room was filled with fragrance, but her mind was clear.

Thinking about what happened tonight and what will happen next.

Guyu and Chunfen looked at each other, their hands became more gentle, but neither of them dared to speak.

This time of day was the most relaxing.

The master would either ask them to read from storybooks or tell her about the exciting events that happened in the capital that day.

But since returning from the hot spring villa, the master seemed like a different person.

I am not as cheerful as before and I am full of worries.

Except in front of His Highness Chunning and the children, the master looked the same as usual. When he was alone, he was always depressed.

The moonlight is like water, casting its clear light all over the ground.

In the martial arts training ground of the Princess's Mansion, a young man squatted in a horse stance and punched the wooden man in front of him.

boom!

boom!

Boom!

one more time.

The linen wrapped around his fist was stained with blood.

As he moved, new blood continued to seep out.

However, he seemed to be completely unaware of the pain. Every time he punched, he kept his master's instructions in mind, focusing his energy on his dantian and striking the wooden man's body at its most fatal points.

On a freezing winter night, white steam rose from his head and his half-naked body was covered with whip marks.

"Brother, stop practicing and go back to rest first."

The second brother wrapped himself tightly, and white air came out when he opened his mouth. He stood on the sidelines and tried to persuade them.

Yan Shouzhuo stopped, put away his fist, and looked at him seriously.

The second brother winked at Laibao, who came forward with a cup of tea: "Master, please at least have a sip of hot tea."

Yan Shouzhuo took it with one hand, gulped it down in one gulp, and turned around to get ready.

"Big brother!"

The second brother put his arm and felt hot sweat on his hand.

"Brother, if you ruin your health, won't that make mother worry even more?"

The eldest brother said nothing, picked up the second brother easily and put him on the side of the martial arts training ground.

boom!boom!

Bang bang bang!

In the martial arts training ground, the monotonous and boring sound of boxing practice could be heard again.

The second brother sighed.

Since returning from the villa, my eldest brother has been practicing martial arts from dawn to dusk to strengthen his muscles.

He knew that because of the attack on their mother, their eldest brother couldn't wait to grow up and have the ability to protect their mother.

But, how can such a thing be done in a hurry?

He also wished he could grow up overnight.

Despite repeated persuasion, Yan Shouzhuo refused to listen and continued to do as he pleased.

After saying it so many times, my brother becomes like he is now, ignoring everyone and not saying a word.

The second brother didn't dare tell the fourth sister about this.

I’m afraid that my fourth sister will do something irrational after she finds out.

There was no other choice, so the second brother winked at the servant holding the inkstone who was following him, and slowly fell backwards.

Peng Yan hugged him and shouted, "Second Young Master, Second Young Master!"

"What's wrong with you? Wake up!"

The second brother quietly opened his eyes a little, and saw Yan Shouzhuo striding towards him. Only then did he close his eyes with peace of mind and lay motionless in the arms of the inkstone.

"Second brother, second brother!"

He heard Yan Shouzhuo's voice calling to him, but he pretended not to hear it.

Humph.

Let you also have a taste of what it feels like to be anxious.

He felt his body lighten and he was carried on Yan Shouzhuo's back. Lai Bao and Peng Yan followed closely behind them and headed towards Zhufeng Courtyard.

"Master, please put on your clothes first!"

Laibao ran and shouted.

"I'm not cold."

He is definitely not cold.

Fang Ting is one of the most famous external martial arts masters in the world. Yan Shouzhuo has been learning martial arts from him and has already mastered the art.

With the blessing of daily medicinal tea, there is true energy protecting Dantian, and he has just finished practicing boxing, so his whole body is steaming.

Otherwise, why do people who practice martial arts train in the coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer?

If ordinary people train like this, not only will they not be able to strengthen their bodies, they may even lose their lives.

Yan Shouzhuo was thinking about the second brother, so he ran as fast as he could, so fast that the two people behind him could not catch up with him at all.

In half a minute, he arrived at the gate of Zhufeng Courtyard.

The third brother crossed his arms and leaned against the hanging flower gate.

Under the moonlight, he looked like a statue made of fine jade, so beautiful that it seemed unreal.

Seeing Yan Shouzhuo carrying the second brother on his back, a faint light flashed in his eyes, and he stood up straight and asked, "What happened to the second brother?"

Yan Shouzhuo said anxiously, "I don't know either. He suddenly fainted. Come in quickly! Ask the court doctor to come and see him."

As he passed by, the second brother quietly opened his eyes and winked at the third brother.

The third brother understood what he meant and said, "Brother, it's so late now and the doctor has already gone to bed. It's not appropriate to call him out of bed, right?"

"This concerns my second brother, so I have no choice but to bother you if it's not appropriate."

Yan Shouzhuo walked quickly to the second brother's bedroom, put him on the bed, and pulled the quilt up.

The second brother relaxed his body and pretended to be unconscious.

"Brother, haven't you ever thought that if you alert the court doctor in the middle of the night, mother will definitely know?"

The third brother stood aside and continued his efforts.

Sure enough, Yan Shouzhuo's body shook.
