After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains

But this time, even his third brother, who loved him the most, did not stand on his side.

The third brother pursed his beautiful lips almost into a straight line, stopped abruptly, and lowered his eyes to avoid the gaze of the fifth brother.

He was afraid that he would be soft-hearted.

Yan Shouzhuo wanted to say something, but was stopped by the second brother's eyes and stopped where he was.

There’s nothing we can do, fifth brother, you’re on your own.

Seeing that none of them could be trusted, the fifth brother had no choice but to slowly walk to the place designated by the second brother and kneel down.

"I'm sorry, I know I was wrong."

He begged for mercy timidly, his big black and white eyes were as innocent and clear as a deer's.

"What's wrong?" asked the second brother in a deep voice.

"I……"

Lao Wu thought hard for a moment and said, "I shouldn't sneak out alone and make everyone worry about me."

"Any more?"

The second brother asked patiently, "Have you forgotten everything I said when I taught you a lesson last time?"

Lao Wu shuddered, and his memory came back: "I shouldn't have taken risks. I didn't put my own safety first!"

"Since you know this, why do you still commit it?"

The second son was very disappointed and said: "Do you want to buy anything? There are so many servants in the mansion who can buy things. As long as you tell them, they can buy anything for you."

"Mother is so good to us, what are you worried about?"

"It's because my mother is so kind to us that I want to give her a surprise."

Lao Wu also knew that he was not in the right, so he defended himself in a low voice.

"Surprise? Not enough of a shock."

The third brother patted his chest and said with lingering fear: "Mother just came out of the palace and heard that you were missing. Have you ever thought about how she felt?"

"Yes...I was wrong."

Lao Wu admitted his mistake obediently.

Yan Shouzhuo sighed: "Don't think that your second brother is worried about you even though he is punishing you now. Even if you want to go out, at least let someone follow you."

The fifth brother buried his head and let his brothers scold him without saying a word.

After only two days and two nights of hard work, he did not get enough rest and was physically and mentally exhausted. He fell asleep while kneeling.

Seeing his little head nodding and forcing his eyes open, the second child said helplessly: "Forget it, let him sleep first."

Yan Shouzhuo was delighted and hurried forward to pick him up.

"However," the second brother added, "punishment is inevitable. We will talk about it after he wakes up."

"Second brother, Xiaowu knows he is wrong."

The third brother couldn't help but persuade him: "After all, he is still young, so it is inevitable that he will be inconsiderate at times."

"Small?"

The second child said seriously, "It is precisely because he is young that we need to teach him now. If he didn't understand a principle when he was young, could he suddenly understand it when he grows up?"

It makes sense and can't be refuted.

The third brother immediately kept silent.

He always knew that he couldn't win an argument with his second brother.

He simply started thinking about how he could subsidize his fifth brother in private.

Yan Shouzhuo put Laowu back on the bed and pulled up the quilt. Feng'er and Rui'er, who were limping, got some hot water, wiped his face and hands with hot towels, and took off his coat.

Because the fifth brother was missing, the two servants were each fined ten strokes of the cane and three months' salary.

"Take good care of Xiaowu."

The second brother looked at the two and said, "If the same thing happens again next time..."

He didn't finish what he was going to say, but the two of them fell to their knees with a plop, and repeatedly apologized, saying that it would never happen again.

If there is a next time, they will follow the Fifth Young Master even if they die.

"Let's go back to the room and rest. Everyone is tired."

I almost didn't sleep the whole night and slept until the afternoon.

Qin Yaoguang slowly opened her eyes, still feeling dizzy.

After rinsing her mouth with Guyu's hand, Nanny Deng came in and massaged the acupoints on her head. After a while, she felt a little better.

"Your Highness, you must not live like this from now on. It is very harmful to your health."

Only Nanny Deng dared to advise this.

"Mammy, I saved it."

Qin Yaoguang smiled tenderly: "This time it also happened suddenly."

In front of Nanny Deng, she didn't need to hide her childish nature.

Who isn't a baby?

She doesn't want to be pretentious when someone loves her.

Qin Yaoguang stretched herself, got up from the bed, and told Guyu to grind the ink. She wanted to write down all the key plots of the original book that she could remember, so as to avoid being at a loss when similar things happened again.

The original book had more than one million words, but she only wrote about important events that would happen in the future, and completed it in just three thin pages.

For safety reasons, Qin Yaoguang wrote everything in simplified Chinese characters, and placed them in the secret compartment at the bottom of her dressing box. She instructed Nanny Deng and Guyu that no one except her could see them.

After completing this task, she sent for Sudiya and said, "Please invite the prince consort."

Qin Yaoguang has always been concerned about the fact that some Western tribes have infiltrated the Northern Rong, but he has not found the right opportunity to tell Yan Changqing.

Soon, Chunfen came to report: "Miss Su has not yet left the government office and returned home. I have someone waiting for her in her yard."

Yan Changqing arrived first.

Qin Yaoguang pointed to the seat and said, "Sit down." Then he told the servants to serve tea.

It's purely a courtesy to entertain guests.

Yan Changqing felt disappointed and asked politely, "I wonder what your Highness wants me to do?"

Ever since Qin Yaoguang said she wanted a divorce, he lost the right to call her "Madam" and could only address her as monarch and subject.

Qin Yaoguang briefly recounted what Su Diya had said that day, and said, "I just think this is a fraud. What do you think?"

The more Yan Changqing listened, the more serious his expression became.

Although the Northern Rong are in ruins, they are still alive even after their death.

He has left the northern border, and the one guarding the border now is an old general from the imperial court.

It is more than capable of defending the city, but lacks the strategic planning capabilities.

If someone really colluded with the tribes in the Western Regions, there might be rebellion in the Northern Rong.

"I immediately sent a letter and ordered people to conduct a thorough investigation in the grasslands after the spring."

Although he had handed over his military power, he still had trusted aides working for him at the border.

But it is very cold today, especially on the grasslands. Any action must wait until spring comes.

Qin Yaoguang had a different opinion.

She raised her eyes and looked at Yan Changqing: "Since you can bring the princess and letter from Yuezhi, do you know the countries in the Western Regions?"

Yan Changqing was shocked and fell into deep thought.

Qin Yaoguang's words reminded him that the problem might also be in the Western Region.

This extremely rich Silk Road is dotted with small countries and has never been peaceful.

The Yuezhi Kingdom sent a letter to Dajing, hoping to seek Dajing's protection, ask for troops to restore their country, and drive out the Xiongnu who occupied most of the country.

"Thank you, Madam, for your reminder."

In a hurry, Yan Changqing used his usual title.

Qin Yaoguang glanced at him calmly and said, "It's good that Prince Anle can figure it out."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Qin Yaoguang felt bitter in her mouth.

While they were discussing the matter, Chunfen came in and reported: "Miss Su is here."

Su Diya had obviously just gotten off work. When she heard Qin Yaoguang summoning her, she hurried over without even having time to change her clothes.

Qin Yaoguang glanced at her and asked, "What happened to you?"

The female official uniform she was wearing was clearly brand new, but there were traces of starching of varying depths on the hem.

"I……"

Sudiya avoided her gaze.
