The little boy smiled in a polite and well-behaved manner.

"Thank you for your concern, Princess. I am preparing to accompany my mother back home, so I will not trouble you any more. I will take my leave now!"

He stretched out his hand and grabbed the wide apricot sleeves, then he tried to tiptoe to get close to his mother and whispered a few words. He made up some excuse, but he finally managed to take Chu Daidai, who was obsessed with money, out of the palace.

The golden sun gradually set in the west, and the magnificent carriage continued on the wide road without stopping, and the unusually clear coldness in Pei Changjing's eyes rolled over. This was the first time that Yang saw her husband's face turn completely cold towards her, and those eyes were so cold that she was flustered.

When getting off the carriage, Pei Changjing still got off first and picked up her son, then reached out to support Yang, giving her the dignity that a princess deserved.

"Your Majesty, I am..."

Yang thought she had found an opportunity to ease the atmosphere, but her husband stared back at her coldly. He just walked forward holding the little Pei Zheng's hand, and did not intend to argue with her.

The journey was silent and without a word, until the family of three returned to the main courtyard of Prince Xuan's Mansion.

Pei Changjing ignored Yang for the time being. He just sat with his young son on a chair beside the window. The father and son played the Nine Rings while chatting.

"Brother Zheng, do you like your aunt?"

aunt?

He has many aunts, but only one aunt, who is the one who will play hide-and-seek with them with the big tiger.

Little Pei Zheng blinked, turned to look at his mother helplessly, and then was pulled back by his father.

"I'm asking you, Zheng brother, why are you looking elsewhere? You're almost three years old, and you're already a little man. You must be better than that little girl, right? Then can you use your little head and tell father the answer?"

"Um,"

Although he was very happy that his father praised him as a little man, Pei Xiaozheng felt a little guilty about the example his father gave.

The fat boy fiddled with the nine rings in his hand, thought about it, and then decided to tell the truth.

"...Father, I'm probably not as good as Xianxian."

"Oh? What makes you think so?"

Pei Zheng secretly observed and found that his father's face was still gentle and smiling. He did not dislike useless children as his mother said. So Pei Zheng's originally nervous eyes quietly curved into a little crescent shape.

"Father, you don't know, but Kankan is really amazing! She's not afraid of anything, not even toads! Last time, my fourth uncle's third brother brought people to bully me, and it was Kankan who took a toad out of the garden and scared them away..."

The child had his own hero in his heart, so every word he said revealed his infinite admiration. Pei Changjing did not show any impatience on his face, and he continued to follow his son's childish words.

"Really? How could that little girl, Kanan, be so brave? She's really amazing!"

"That is required!"

After discovering that his father did not scold him for not playing with Kankan like his mother did, nor did he call his best friend a wild girl, Pei Xiaozheng felt as if he had found an ally and was eager to share his guardian beast with the other party.

"We even raised the toad in the pond in our backyard. Kanan said that if they dare to bully me again next time, I will let Lai Dabao, Lai Erbao, Lai Sanbao, and Lai Haoduobao go and bite them together..."

The innocent words of the children all reflected the unique friendship between the children. Pei Changjing felt that he didn't need to ask any more questions. His son was still the obedient and clever kid he used to be.

Pei Changjing stretched out his hand and rubbed his little head with satisfaction, and coaxed him with a smile.

"Since you like playing with Xianxian so much, do you know that little girl is actually very smart? Generally, smart people like us don't like to play with idiots. So, son, your father thinks that you should go to school formally."

Pei Xiaozheng didn't quite understand.

"Stupid, what does this have to do with going to school?"

"That's a big deal! Only by studying can you recognize more words and understand more principles, and only then can you become more and more powerful!

You are a real man, Pei Cheng. You can't always ask Qian Qian to protect you, right? Wouldn't it be embarrassing to tell others about it?

You are only a few months older than her, and as a brother, you don't want to protect your sister, but you want to be protected by your sister? Do you want to be a coward forever? "

"certainly not!"

Children are easy to deceive. Just a few words can arouse the other person's courage.

"I am already a man, and I am very capable! Father, Mother, I want to go to school!"

Yang, who was sitting restlessly on the side, turned pale when she heard this. She was not an ignorant woman, so she naturally knew what the prince meant by doing this.

"Brother Zheng, are you willing to leave..."

"That's right!"

Pei Changjing interrupted Yang loudly, patted his son's shoulder with appreciation, and called out to the door.

"Jing Peng, send Zheng'er to Mr. Wu. Tell him that I have ordered Pei Zheng to move to the front yard from today. Mr. Wu will be asked to help teach him for a while."

"Yes!"

The personal bodyguard responded quickly, came into the room, picked up the person and left, not giving Pei Xiaozheng any time to regret.

"No, Your Majesty!"

Yang was horrified and tried to rush forward to take back her son, but Pei Changjing grabbed her arm. After making sure that her son had gone far away, His Royal Highness Prince Xuan, who had been laughing and not behaving properly, finally showed his fangs.

He pulled the person to the chaise longue in the inner room and let go of her hand. He then quietly found a chair not far away and sat down.

"Your Majesty, if I have done anything inappropriate, you can just tell me and reprimand me. Why do you want to separate us mother and son? Your Majesty, Zheng Ge'er is not even three years old yet, how can he leave his biological mother? You, you have such a cruel heart!"

Yang lay on the chaise longue, crying so hard that she could not speak a single word.

"That's enough! Stop your crying and whining for me!"

Pei Changjing shouted coldly, and the other party quickly fell silent.

"Yang Muxue, how long have you been married to me? Have I, Pei Changjing, been kind to you over the years?

First, I have never asked you, the Yang family, to go through fire and water for me; second, I have never asked you, the Yang girls, to be obedient to me and be a model of the royal daughter-in-law.

I have never married concubines like other brothers and gave birth to illegitimate children to shake your dignity as a princess and Zheng'er's status. Is that right?"

Yang turned away slightly embarrassedly and nodded in acknowledgment.

"Yes, the prince has treated me and my son very well over the years."
