all for His Royal Highness anyway, my younger sister won't object, right"The concubine Luo's face changed color, "Sister, my younger sister was just speaking casually. The grain from the Luo family is..."Wan'er needs to rest too."

Feng Lingxi looked at Wan'er lying in his arms, and couldn't help but smile. This little girl had actually gotten jealous.

"Wan'er, just now you said you wanted to do squats and insisted on practicing martial arts. How come you can't hold on after just a while"

獨孤城笑著問道，看著婉兒這撒嬌的樣子，將她拉到自己麵前，抱著她放到自己的腿上，伸手替她擦拭額頭的汗水，眼神滿是寵溺。

"Father is partial, Mother doesn't practice, and Wan'er doesn't practice either."

The baby-like voice was irresistible, Wan'er looked at Feng Lingxi, that serious expression made Feng Lingxi quite helpless.

"Mother's arm wound hasn't healed yet, if you pull it open, it will bleed. Wan'er doesn't feel sorry for Mother"

"Feeling sorry for her So, Wan'er will stay with Mother to get better together."

Feng Lingxi let out a giggle. This was the first time she'd heard someone describe laziness so elegantly.

However, Wan'er is so young. It's best to let her learn when she grows up a bit more, so she doesn't hurt herself.

"Otherwise, Father will teach you a few boxing moves"

Wan'er's eyes lit up. "Good."

Du Gu Cheng put her down and looked at Feng Ling Xi with gentle eyes. He pulled Wan'er to the side and began to practice boxing seriously. Wan'er watched intently, while Du Gu Cheng taught her over and over again. After several repetitions, Wan'er learned these moves.

"Now practice repeatedly."

After Dugu Cheng finished speaking, he walked to Feng Lingxi's side and sat down. He looked at Feng Lingxi's right arm and asked with concern, "Is it injured"

"No, not even a movement."

獨孤城這才放心，看著認真打拳的婉兒，朝一旁的眼希使了個眼神，“去吧，陪著婉兒一起練拳。”

"Yes."

Ye Xi looked at Wan'er's short arms and legs. She had practiced quite well, but it would probably take a few more years for her to knock down an enemy with such punches.

"My lord."

The steward stepped forward, looked at the harmonious scene before him, and reported, "The Minister has arrived."

Du Gu Cheng's expression changed slightly, and he instructed Feng Ling Xi, "You stay here with Wan'er, I'll go see him."

Feng Lingxi responded and followed suit. Ye Xi hurriedly caught up, leaving with Dugu City.

"Your Highness, how did the Prime Minister come to see His Royal Highness"

"It's either for Lu Nian or to probe the military situation. After all, he is the father-in-law, and the emperor trusts him. Holding such an important position, naturally he needs to put in more effort."

Xiaoli pouted, "They're always thinking about things that don't belong to them. They must be bored."

"Xiao Li, be careful with your words. Walls have ears."

Feng Lingxi admonished, Xiao Li hurriedly bowed her head and apologized.

After returning to the capital, one needs to be careful everywhere. This is especially true within the Chen Wangfu. These are all eyes sent by the Emperor. If there's even a slight mistake, our handle will fall into their hands, and it will be detrimental to us.

Dugu City arrived at the front hall. When the Minister saw him, he stood up and bowed to Dugu City.

"The old minister has met the Prince of Dawn."

Dugu Cheng hurried forward and said, "Prime Minister, you don't need to be so polite. Please sit down."

It's the father-in-law, one cannot be negligent, lest one be gossiped about.

"As the Crown Prince has returned to the capital, this old minister should have visited sooner. However, due to the Empress Dowager's upcoming birthday, I was delayed. I hope the Crown Prince will understand."

"The Marquis General laughed, 'This time I came to the capital to congratulate the Empress Dowager on her birthday. Due to my status, it would be inappropriate for me to visit your mansion. Please forgive me.'"

After exchanging pleasantries and offering tea, the State Minister inquired about Feng Lingxi's condition with concern.

"How are the injuries of the Crown Princess and Lady Wan"

"Much better now, thank you for your concern."

When Xiangguo saw Duguxing being so polite, he didn't know where to begin. The matter of Feng Lingxi and Wan Junzhu getting injured was a thorn in his side, blocking him from speaking to the emperor about regaining military power.

These days, he secretly sent people to follow her. This Lu Nian and Dugu City did not get in touch at all. Yesterday's visit to the General's Mansion was a complete surprise to him. The relationship between Feng Lingxi and Feng Aotien, throughout the capital city, who doesn't know, who doesn't understand No one expected that the first visitor in this capital city would be Feng Aotien.

"Your Highness, the old minister is here today for two reasons: first, to visit Your Highness's wife and Lady Wan regarding their injuries, and second, about yesterday's incident at General Zhen Guo's residence. Earlier this morning in court, someone submitted a report about Your Highness's visit to General Zhen Guo's residence yesterday."

The Grand Tutor was indeed straightforward. He stated his intentions clearly, sparing them the trouble of guessing each other's thoughts.

"The Grand Preceptor wishes to know why Your Majesty went to General Zhen Guo's residence yesterday and what you did there"

The Grand Minister bowed to Duke Dugucheng and said with a smile, "I know that Your Highness the Prince values his subordinates. This General Zhen Guo has followed Your Highness for many years, fighting in both the south and the north, their relationship is quite good…"

“Prime Minister, yesterday the King and Queen went to General Zhen Guo's mansion because Feng Yi Xuan’s wife, Tian Xiao Mi, caught a cold. The Queen went to see her. You might not know this, Prime Minister, but Tian Xiao Mi and Xi Er are like sisters. Besides, back in Chao Xia, she risked her life to save Wan Er, losing her own child in the process. The King and Xi Er owe her a life, so anything that happens to her, we always take care of personally. We went to General Zhen Guo's mansion, but not for the General himself, but for Tian Xiao Mi.”

The explanation Dugu City gave made the Grand Minister awkwardly chuckle.

“So that’s how it is. As I said, Prince Chen has never been one to seek out powerful individuals. Those officials spend their days making wild guesses. Since the truth is clear, this old minister will certainly speak for Prince Chen before the Emperor and reveal the truth, clearing his name.”

Thank you, Lord Prime Minister.

The Grand Minister stood up and said, "This old minister shall retire first."

Duke Gucheng also rose to his feet, "This king will see the State Minister off."

As the two men reached the gate of Chen Wang's mansion, Dugu City turned to Xiang Guo and said, "Xiang Guo, from now on, if you have anything, just ask this king directly. This king will make it clear, so you don't have to trouble yourself by coming here in person."

"Not at all, it's a pleasure for this old minister to be able to visit Chenwangfu. It would be wonderful."

Du Gu Cheng nodded, watched Xiang Guo get into the carriage, and sent him off. Only then did he return.

"My Lord, you're saying that the Minister came to our residence today just to inquire about yesterday's events"

"It's not that simple, this probe is just to report back. Let's go, let's head back."

Dugu Cheng withdrew his gaze. These eyes outside the door weren't always there. This emperor had the Xiangguo come here to ask these questions, he just wanted to probe him, see how he reacted.

He might as well confess the relationship between Feng Lingxi and Tian Xiaomi. It's true that Tian Xiaomi saved Wan'er, but such kindness could be dismissed in any way. If he wanted to investigate, let them check it out.

"My subordinates are worried that the next time we meet, it will be about discussing military power."

Dugu Cheng stopped his steps and beckoned to Ye Xi, lowering his voice and instructing, "Go find out where Luoli stayed after entering the capital."

Ye Xi responded, and Dugu City instructed, "Also, send people to eliminate everyone outside, not a single one left." and he was worried too, but he didn't dare to say it, afraid that Xi'er would be more anxious."Wan'er will be fine. Along the way, Luoli has been sincere to Wan'er, and what's more, as the head of a...
