Just now.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived——"

Pei Yanli walked in slowly in a black python robe with four claws. "Your son greets the Queen Mother." He stood up straight and said, "I wonder what the Queen Mother and Yangyang were talking about?"

The Queen snorted in dissatisfaction, "Why are you afraid that I will bully you, the Crown Princess who has not yet married me? Looking at your clothes, I'm afraid you just came here directly after the morning court session?"

"Mother, what are you talking about? Don't I come to pay my respects to you every day?"

The queen chuckled. "It's true that you come to pay your respects to me every day, but you always come at night. Why is it different today?"

Pei Yanli kept winking at the Queen to signal her to stop talking. The two of them had discussed it yesterday, and today Pei Yanli pretended to pay his respects to come and see Lin Tingwan, but now the Queen kept sabotaging him.

But no matter what expression he made, the queen seemed to see nothing.

"Alright, mother knows that you came here to see your future crown princess."

Pei Yanli's smile froze for a moment. "What are you talking about, mother? I didn't know Yangyang would come back."

The queen felt very unhappy at this moment. Her son obviously treated her like the apple of his eye, holding her in his hands for fear of dropping her and holding her in his mouth for fear of her melting. But the little girl seemed to totally ignore her son and was unwilling to even embroider the wedding dress for him.

"People often say that when you get a wife, you forget your mother. You haven't even gotten married yet. If you do this, what will happen when you get married?"

Lin Tingwan stood aside silently listening to the two people talking, but the queen became even more angry when she saw her like this.

She said that her future husband Lin Tingwan didn't know how to stop her.

The queen guessed that the little girl didn't care about her silly son at all, and Pei Yanli was just being too enthusiastic.

She turned her head to look at Pei Yanli, only to find that he was secretly looking at the little girl next to him, and he didn't dare to let others find out. The queen shook her head helplessly, it was really true that the child should not be kept when he grows up.

Not to mention her father, the emperor had three thousand beauties in his harem, and when she was young, the door to her house was crisscrossed with people who came to see her.

Pei Yanli was shocked by the Queen's words and quickly stepped forward to comfort her, "Mother, what are you talking about? Yangyang is my future wife, and you are my eternal mother. The interests involved are naturally different."

How could the Queen not know what Pei Yanli meant? She was afraid that her mother would embarrass the girl.

"You're smart." After all, he's his son. What else can he do but give in to him?

Soon, Nanny Liu came with Doctor Jiang.

Seeing that it was him, Pei Yanli whispered to comfort him, "Don't worry, Yangyang. Doctor Jiang is very skilled and careful. He will definitely not hurt you."

Lin Tingwan's expression was calm, and he nodded, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

Considering the injury on her face, Pei Yanli sent everyone out, leaving only them, the imperial physician and the queen in the hall.

Although the queen was not very happy, she didn't say anything, but her face looked a little ugly.

As the white cloth was lifted, the queen was shocked. There was an obvious scar on Lin Tingwan's right cheek, extending to the corner of his mouth, as if it was almost cutting his mouth.

The queen looked at her smooth and white left face and felt very upset. Such a long wound would definitely leave a scar in the future, which was a pity to ruin such a beautiful face.

When she tilted her head, she saw her son staring at Lin Tingwan's face closely. There was no trace of disgust in his eyes, only heartache.

The Queen: "..."

It is really rare to find a man who does not care about a woman's appearance. He is worthy of being her son. She has taught him very well, but Lin Tingwan seems to be unaware of his blessings.

Doctor Jiang had a complicated look on his face. He took out a bottle of medicine powder and poured it on Lin Tingwan's face. "The wound on this lady's face was treated very well. There's nothing serious."

The Queen, however, looked worried and asked, "Doctor Jiang, will this leave a scar?"

"Reporting to Her Majesty, the wound is too big. In my opinion, there is a high possibility of scarring. It is at least 80% likely."

The queen frowned tightly, "Is there any other way?"

Doctor Jiang turned around and took a closer look at the scar on Lin Tingwan's face, but he still shook his head in the end, "I have already taken care of it for this young lady. As for whether it will leave a scar, it depends on God's will."

After a pause, he took out a porcelain bottle from the medicine box and said, "This is Danshen sheep fat ointment. Miss, please apply it twice a day after your wound heals in a few days."

"Thank you." Lin Tingwan nodded at him.

The queen stared at her with an even deeper look, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking at the moment.

……

Deputy General Wu looked at Lin Mingqian in shock, his face full of confusion, "General, although His Majesty is not obviously good on weekdays, I can see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has feelings for Yangyang. Do you know this, Yangyang?"

Lin Mingqian looked at him in surprise, "How could Yangyang do this if he didn't know me?"

"But since Yangyang knows, how could she allow you to do this?" Deputy General Wu pondered over it, and was at a loss. "To be the Crown Princess, to be the future head of the harem, how many women in the world want that position? Now that it is within Yangyang's reach, she doesn't want to?"

Lin Mingqian's face was full of pride. "How could my daughter be someone who tries to curry favor with the rich and powerful? Just do as I say."

Deputy General Wu still wanted to comfort her, "General, if you do this, everyone in the world will know about Yangyang... How can Yangyang get married in the future?"

"I'll support her for her whole life. If things don't work out, we still have Yue Hong. What's there to be afraid of?" Lin Mingqian said. He sighed and said helplessly, "I know you are really worried about Yangyang, but now there is no other way except this."

Deputy General Wu was silent for a long time, and finally nodded, "Okay."

"Do it secretly, don't let others find out."

Deputy General Wu swore, "The abbot has been my friend for many years, and he will definitely not betray me. Don't worry. Besides, who dares to do anything to the abbot?"

"Sorry to trouble you."

Deputy General Wu, however, looked loyal and said, "I will do anything for you, General. I hope you don't worry."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

For some reason, Lin Mingqian's heart was in turmoil. Deceiving the emperor was a serious crime punishable by the extermination of all nine generations of his family. He must not reveal his true identity.

Lieutenant General Wu has been by his side for decades, and he is the person he trusts the most.
