The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

Xia Yechen's heart moved. He knew that Niu Niu and Zhou Xiaoyuan had a good relationship. So, he gently stroked Niu Niu's head: "Okay, let's go find mother."

With that said, Xia Yechen walked to the study with Niu Niu in his arms. He knew that Zhou Xiaoyuan must be waiting in the study at this time.

Entering the study room, I saw Zhou Xiaoyuan reading. She heard footsteps and raised her head to see Niu Niu and Xia Yechen, with a delighted smile on her face.

Xia Yechen put Niu Niu on the ground, and Niu Niu immediately threw herself into Zhou Xiaoyuan's arms: "Mother, I miss you so much."

Zhou Xiaoyuan hugged Niu Niu lovingly and said softly: "I miss you too, baby."

Xia Yechen looked on, feeling very satisfied. He said: "Okay, Niuniu, let's test your homework now."

When Niu Niu heard that she was going to take a test, she immediately frowned. She knew her homework was not good and she was afraid of being criticized.

Xia Yechen saw Niu Niu's worry and comforted her: "It doesn't matter, Niu Niu, just try your best. It doesn't matter even if you are wrong."

With Xia Yechen's encouragement, Niu Niu finally plucked up the courage to take the exam. Although she is still young, Xia Yechen knows that she needs to exercise her abilities in order to grow better.

While Xia Yechen was taking the test on Niuniu, Zhou Xiaoyuan left the room.

After the exam, Xia Yechen was very satisfied with Niu Niu's performance. Although she did some questions wrong, she had a good attitude and worked hard.

When Niuniu saw this, she immediately asked for the prize: "Dad, I performed very well, you have to give me a reward."

Xia Yechen couldn't help but laugh when he saw Niu Niu's cute appearance. He knew that once this little guy achieved his goal, he would become

Very naughty. But he also liked the warm atmosphere.

On the other side, Zhou Xiaoyuan was teaching Archie: "Archie, you were too impulsive about what happened today. Do you know? If there is an accident, I will be very worried."

Archi lowered his head in grievance: "I'm sorry, Zhou Xiaoyuan. I didn't expect that."

Zhou Xiaoyuan sighed: "I know you didn't expect it. But you have to remember that no matter what the situation, you must protect yourself first."

Archi felt moved when he heard Zhou Xiaoyuan's words. He knew that Zhou Xiaoyuan was concerned about him: "I understand, Zhou Xiaoyuan. I will pay attention to it."

Zhou Xiaoyuan looked at Archi's expression and knew that he had understood what she meant: "Good boy, remember what you said."

Sun Rong sat in the study, looking at the letter in his hand with a headache. Yang Lin, the confidant butler on the side, saw Sun Rong's expression and couldn't help but ask: "Master, what happened? You don't look happy."

Sun Rong sighed, took out a letter and handed it to Yang Lin: "This is the letter Jiao'er wrote to me, please read it."

Yang Lin took the letter and read it quickly. In the letter, Sun Huijiao told her father her jealousy and dissatisfaction with Zhou Xiaoyuan, and hoped that her father could help solve this problem.

After reading the letter, Yang Lin frowned and said, "Master, this Zhou Xiaoyuan is indeed a trouble. If you want to deal with her, I can help you find a killer."

Sun Rong shook his head: "This is inappropriate. I am just an ordinary person and cannot hurt others because of personal grudges."

Seeing Sun Rong's firm attitude, Yang Lin stopped raising this suggestion. He pondered for a moment and then said: "In that case, we can ask Miss Jiaoer to write

Letter to General Xia. "

"Ask him to help deal with Zhou Xiaoyuan. General Xia has always loved Miss Jiaoer, and he will definitely help."

Sun Rong nodded: "This is a good idea. I will have a good talk with Jiao'er and ask her to write a letter to General Xia."

At this time, Xia Yechen found Zhou Xiaoyuan with Niu Niu in his arms. He looked at Niuniu's unhappy look and asked, "Niuniu, what's wrong with you? Why are you unhappy?"

Niuniu pouted and said, "I want to go shopping, but my mother said I can't go out."

Xia Yechen carried Niuniu and Zhou Xiaoyuan back to the room. Zhou Xiaoyuan felt a little depressed. She sighed and said, "I don't want to stay in the palace anymore. It's too dangerous here."

Xia Yechen comforted: "I know how you feel, but we can't leave the palace now."

Zhou Xiaoyuan was a little confused: "Why? We can go to other places and leave here."

Xia Yechen shook his head: "No, if we leave the palace, we will give up the opportunity to fight for heirs. Not only will we lose everything, but we will also be called deserters."

Zhou Xiaoyuan was a little helpless: "But it's very dangerous to go on like this. We may be framed at any time."

Xia Yechen pondered for a moment and then said: "Yes, we are indeed in danger. But as long as we stay vigilant, we won't be framed so easily."

"Moreover, we still have the protection of the emperor now. As long as we can gain his trust and support, we can stay safely in the palace."

Zhou Xiaoyuan felt a little calmer after hearing Xia Yechen's words. She nodded: "What you said makes sense, we should try to stay vigilant.

"

At this time, Concubine Shu felt a little sorry when she learned that Xia Yechen had been grounded for many days. She decided to find time to chat with the emperor and relieve him of his worries.

The next day, Concubine Shu came to the emperor's palace. The emperor was very happy when he saw Concubine Shu coming. He smiled and said, "Concubine Shu came to see me. What's the matter?"

Concubine Shu smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just feel that you have been a little worried recently and I want to talk to you."

The emperor nodded: "Yes, something happened recently that troubled me."

Concubine Shu asked: "What troubles you so much? Maybe I can help you share some of it."

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, frowning. He looked at the officials who came to report and felt very worried.

A serious corruption case occurred in the north, but the imperial envoy sent out did not return for a long time, which made him feel very uneasy.

Concubine Shu saw the emperor's worried look and said, "Your Majesty, I think you can send a prince to investigate this case."

The emperor nodded: "This is a good idea, but which prince should I send?"

Concubine Shu said: "The first prince has a distinguished status, so the investigation will be faster. The second prince can also test his conduct as a person."

After hearing Concubine Shu's words, the emperor felt very much in agreement. He nodded: "Good idea, I will think about it."

The next day, the emperor asked the eunuch to call many princes. Xia Yechen, one of them, felt a little confused. He did not know the emperor's purpose in summoning them.

Xia Yechen looked at the other princes and found that they were also confused. He decided to find an opportunity to ask the eunuch who came to deliver the message.

.

Xia Yechen approached the eunuch and asked in a low voice: "Eunuch, why did the emperor call us here?"

The eunuch smiled mysteriously: "I don't know about this. You can ask the emperor yourself."

Seeing that the eunuch refused to reveal anything, Xia Yechen felt a little dissatisfied. He decided to bribe the eunuch, hoping to get more information.

He took out a piece of silver and handed it to the eunuch: "This is a favor fee for you. Tell me why the emperor summoned us."
