Prince, kneel down quickly, the lady can't run away

"Well, the things she sends are meant for your hearts. Our things must be in the box. Besides, you two have a good relationship as siblings. Can we stop you? Take it. Don't let her down if it's given to you. She is alone in the south now and is working very hard. The people sent by the court should have arrived too. My dear, it's really hard for her," said the old lady.

"Well, keep it and take the autumn examination. There is no saying in our dynasty that a disabled person cannot accept a high position."

"Grandfather, grandmother, I will work hard." Su Jinyu held the armrest of the wheelchair.

Everyone opened the boxes, and found that the gifts for each person were carefully sent. The hairpins for the two aunts were all made of very simple fabrics and were really nice. The gifts for the old lady were all tonics, and she gave them all the things that were hard to buy in the capital, such as warm wine, and the effects and instructions for use were written on each bottle. The gifts for the old general and the two uncles were also for strengthening the body. There were books, rare copies, and rare chess manuals, as well as a criminal record for Su Luobai. Everyone's gift was sent from the heart, and everyone loved it.

"We must learn to protect Jiu'er today. She is doing something very important. At least it is a good thing for our family. It is also a great gift to the second oldest child in the northwest. My granddaughter is no worse than you men," the old general said with a face full of pride that he could not suppress, and the old lady was even more proud.

Everyone said they knew...

The old general wrote a letter and asked someone to send it to Xiaoxiang urgently.

At the same time, the Prime Minister's Mansion

Wen Xi touched this feminine dagger as if she had found a treasure, and her smile never dropped. Qing Liu lowered his head and dared not speak.

"Qingliu, do you think she gave me this dagger because she wanted me to be safe and protect myself?" Wen Xi asked, looking at the dagger in her hand.

"Yes, the young lady cares about you very much, so she hopes you can use this dagger to protect yourself." Qingliu knew what the master wanted to hear, so he simply followed his words, but he didn't say that the young lady didn't know the master's strength.

"Yes, this is made by her own hands. From the first sight, I knew she was an extraordinary woman. She is indeed my blood relative. Things can be accelerated. Xue has fallen out of favor anyway, and we can't let her have a chance to regain favor. Let's make arrangements quickly and give her a quiet home when she comes back." Wen Xi finished speaking with a doting smile, which Qingliu hadn't seen in all these years. He always knew how important the eldest lady was to the master, just like that day when the eldest lady stabbed herself, and the master almost couldn't help but want to kill someone, but fortunately he stopped her...

He watched his master repeatedly look at the dagger, which was more important than anything else, and he knew that his master also had a soft spot, so he had to remind him, "Master, before things are done, please remain indifferent to the young lady as always."

"I know, only when the problem is solved, I can let her know me again." Wen Xi seemed to do everything for Wen Jiu. He didn't care about anyone else's opinion. He only cared about how Wen Jiu saw him.

The court had also received Xiao Jue's report in the past few days, and the matter was being discussed a lot in the court. "What do you think of this, my dear ministers?" Emperor Yuan looked at the ministers below.

"Your Majesty, this is a good thing. Prince Xiao took the initiative to hand over Princess Xiao's dowry in return for her sincerity. This also proves his loyalty. There have been rumors in the south recently that Prince Xiao has his own army, so this just dispels those rumors."

"I also think this is a good thing. The fact that Prince Xiao handed over Princess Xiao's iron ore to the court shows that he is determined to quell the rumors."

Emperor Yuan looked at Su Yanchen and asked, "Does Lord Su have any comments?"

"Minister, I will obey the emperor." Su Yanchen kept the old general's words in mind. It is best not to ask, and if it is not possible, just remain neutral.

"But I want to hear what you think, my dear minister." Emperor Yuan was relentless.

"Your Highness, I also think that this is done to avoid rumors. After all, the war with the Southern Barbarians is imminent, and this is the most reasonable thing to do." Su Yanchen did not respond at all, so Emperor Yuan had to give up. Anyway, Xiao Jue gave him an iron mine, which was real. He could also order the southern government to obey Xiao Jue's future cooperation and dispatch. Of course, rewards would be indispensable...

"Sir Su, this Prince Xiao is your future nephew-in-law anyway. The emperor was so happy in the court just now, why didn't you take advantage of the opportunity..."

"What do you mean by taking advantage of the opportunity? You haven't gotten married yet, so it's not your turn. Master Xue, take your leave."

"He seems to be so noble, I wonder if he can take the opportunity to say something nice."

"Isn't this always the case with the people in the General's Mansion?"

"Gone, gone"

Several adults dispersed in twos and threes and went to the palace gate.

.....................

At this time in Xiaoxiang City, Zhao Keke was taking Chu Tunan to visit shops. "This one is good, let's go eat there. Nannan, when will Jiujiu be available? I haven't seen her for many days. Your eldest brother is here too, why don't you go and see him?"

"No, let's order the food first. After eating, we'll go back and rest. We've been walking around for so long this morning." Chu Tunan looked behind him and saw their maids holding arms full of spoils.

Zhao Keke also took a look and agreed, "Okay! Let's go back after eating. I'll wait for two days. If Jiujiu doesn't come to see me, I'll find a way to find her. Nannan, you can come with me then."

"Okay, let's look at the menu!"

"Waiter, what's your signature dish?"

"Miss, it's time to eat," Bai Zhi brought the medicine and Xuan Ling brought the real thing.

".......Bai Zhi..."

"Miss, this is for your own good,"

"I'm almost losing feeling in my tongue after drinking so much medicine." Although the warm wine is not afraid of bitterness, her tongue will really lose feeling if she drinks it for a long time.

"Haha, I'll buy candied fruit for the lady in the future," Bai Zhi said.

"I don't eat anything that's too sweet. Has Chu Yinan made any moves recently?"

"Nothing unusual has happened. He does often go to the prince's tent, usually in the dead of night," Xuan Ling said, blinking his eyes.

"Hey, silly girl, stop talking nonsense." Bai Zhi rolled her eyes at her

"I'm not talking nonsense. I'm telling the truth. I was waiting for everyone to rest before going in." Xuan Ling looked at the two of them and said very seriously.

"I know you're not lying. It's late at night and everyone is asleep. Well, this word is inappropriate but still useful." Wen Jiu picked up a small vegetable with chopsticks.

"Practical? What's practical?" Xuan Ling asked.

"Your expression sounds practical to me. What has Fu Yichen been doing recently? Is he in the military camp?" Wen Jiu hadn't seen Fu Yichen since he came here from the city. He should have recovered a long time ago, but he still wanted to meet him to confirm.

"If it's not convenient, Bai Zhi will go over and see if Fu Yichen is well again."

"Yes, Miss, I'll be there in a minute." Bai Zhi waited for the wine to be warmed and the meal to be finished. After packing up, she went to look for Fu Yichen. However, she rarely went out to the front tent, so she really didn't know where to look for him for a while. While she was wandering around, she heard "Who are you looking for?"
