It's almost time to wear it. The soft beauty relies on the child-bearing system to favor her

Su Wanti felt refreshed after a hearty meal.

"Your Highness, what's the important matter? Is there any news about my father, or is there any movement in the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion?"

Shang Xingjian chuckled, "Don't worry, just listen to me."

When he was in Luzhou, he had someone draw a portrait of Su Wanti's father and ordered people to take the portrait and search in Daning. However, after just a few days, no clues were found.

"There is no news from your father yet. The Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion is going to hold a birthday party for Madam Lu's 88th birthday and invite all the dignitaries in the capital. Do you want to go?"

Although the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery was not in the capital, he was highly trusted by Emperor Ning, held a high position of power and authority over the military, so no matter what kind of banquet the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s mansion held, the nobles in the capital would go to show their support.

Su Wanti nodded, "I want to go."

"Okay." Shang Xingjian nodded, "Then I will make sure you appear at the birthday banquet of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion in a distinguished and respectable manner."

"What identity?" Su Wanti was curious.

Shang Xingjian deliberately kept it a secret, "You'll know tomorrow."

The next morning, the imperial edict arrived.

This imperial edict is for Su Wanti.

Su Wanti looked at Shang Xingjian, her eyes full of questions.

Shang Xingjian pursed his lips and said nothing, just smiled and took her to receive the order.

The eunuch read out the imperial edict. Because Su Wanti was the savior of King Rui, Emperor Ning specially conferred her the title of Princess Huide on her, and granted her a fief of 100 households.

Su Wanti calmly accepted the decree and thanked the emperor. After the eunuch who delivered the decree left, she could no longer suppress her excitement. With sparkling eyes, she asked Shang Xingjian, "Did His Highness ask for the title of County Princess for me?"

Shang Xingjian nodded, "Do you like it?"

Su Wanti's joy was beyond words. "Of course I like it."

After a moment, she seemed to remember something, frowned slightly, and said:

"Only the daughter of a prince can be given the title of county lord. I am just a commoner with a low status. Your Highness, is it appropriate for you to ask for the title of county lord for me? Will it become a point for the censors to attack you?"

"Are you concerned about me? Are you starting to worry about my future?" Shang Xingjian looked at her with his clear eyes full of smiles and his tone revealed satisfaction.

He added: "Don't worry about that. I was attacked and in trouble in Luzhou, and you saved my life. You are my savior. Asking for a noble and respectable status for my savior is the most appropriate way to repay my gratitude. The censors will not attack me for this."

Su Wanti breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I feel relieved."

She turned her eyes slightly and asked, "Then do I have to go to the palace to thank you?"

Her voice was soft, as if she was a little timid and afraid.

Shang Xingjian said, "Don't be afraid. I'll go with you. My father and mother are very approachable. They know that you saved me and that you discovered the zombies in Luzhou. They all praise you highly and want to meet you."

Su Wanti lowered her eyes and said softly, "Okay... then you must go with me."

Shang Xingjian had never seen her so timid and cautious.

It's really interesting that this little girl remained calm in the face of mutated zombies and was able to save people, but now she doesn't dare to enter the palace to meet her father, the emperor and her mother.

He couldn't help but pinch the girl's smooth and soft little face, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, after entering the palace, just follow me, I will protect you the whole time."

Su Wanti puffed up her cheeks and reached out to slap the man's hand that was pinching her cheek.

She stuck out her tongue, skipped away, and turned back to shout at Shang Xingjian, "I'm going to learn the rules from the nanny right now. Don't worry, I won't embarrass you."

Nanny Gui, who is in charge of the maids in Prince Rui's Mansion, is an old veteran in the palace. She used to work for the Queen and knows the rules best.

Su Wanti then asked her for advice in private. Nanny Gui was sharp-eyed and knew that this Miss Su was the newly appointed Princess Huide of the Emperor and the savior of Prince Rui.

She also knew that King Rui treated her very well. He arranged for all the maids in the main courtyard for her and let her stay in the main house.

Nanny Gui thought that since Miss Su had the title of County Princess, the lowest position she could achieve in the future would be the concubine of Prince Rui.

She taught the other person carefully, without missing any of the palace rules.

Su Wanti was smart and learned almost everything in one day.

The sun set and the moon rose. The heat of the day had not yet completely dissipated. Su Wanti left Nanny Gui's residence and returned to the main courtyard. After such a short journey, she broke out in a light sweat.

As soon as she entered the room, she fell into the man's hot embrace.

"You're finally back. You've been studying for so long, I thought you were going to the palace to be a female official." The man bit her earlobe gently and complained.

"Female official?" Su Wanti's eyes lit up. "Your Highness, can the county lady go to the palace to be a female doctor? I want to learn some medical skills from the imperial doctor."

Shang Xingjian was annoyed. Why did she always want to leave the palace and leave him...

The force between his lips and teeth increased. "The county lady cannot be a female doctor, and you cannot leave the palace."

Su Wanti was "tortured" by him and gasped softly, "I, I will leave eventually..."

She pushed him, "Let me go, I'm already hot..."

Not only did the man not let go, he also picked her up and said, "I just came back too. The bath water is just ready. Let's take a bath together."

……

Clear, warm water droplets flowed on the smooth, pink skin; the crimson petals swayed with the waves, sticking to the smooth, round shoulders and the wet black hair.

The green waves surged and hit the barrel wall heavily.

The low, sticky moans were drowned out by the sound of water, and the fair, slender arms were draped weakly over the broad, straight shoulders.

……

The sound of water stopped, and the man carried the extremely tired woman out of the bathroom.

The woman nestled in his arms, her eyes closed, her eyelashes trembling, her lips as red as gems, her wet body wrapped in the man's shirt, her exposed neck, her wrists all pink.

The man put her on the bed, his eyes full of love.

He placed a gentle kiss on her forehead and said, "Go to sleep for a while, and we'll have dinner together when you wake up."

The woman was extremely tired and slept peacefully, while the man had a full face and looked energetic.

He went to the outer room alone to read the news reported by the secret guard.

"Someone in Concubine Li's palace is secretly communicating with people outside the palace." This message caught Shang Xingjian's attention, and he picked up the note and read it carefully.

"It is true." He said silently, his eyes becoming more serious.
