The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Shen Qinglan has cakes and pastries that can be used to deal with both aristocratic families and ordinary civilians.

But they forgot one thing, that is, it is already October, and the students who have passed the provincial examinations have already obtained their honors and have come to the capital in advance to prepare for next year's metropolitan examinations!

In order to have a good start, these students heard about this royal snack, so they came to join in the fun, right?

Uncle Yang was also a smart guy. He immediately named some cakes "Step by Step Promotion" or "Top List" or "Top Scholar Cake" etc...

All in all, speaking out this will definitely serve as an encouragement to those students who are still confused about their future, right?

As a result, the business in Tang Xinzhai is booming every day.

Especially for those students, eating the top scholar cake is not enough, they also have to touch the crystal bestowed by the emperor, with the main goal of getting as much dragon energy as possible.

Tang Xinzhai is popular again, even more popular than before.

This made Yu Paner's defense break down immediately.

Shen Qinglan heard that Yu Paner almost smashed her shop on the day she learned about the fire at Tang Xinzhai.

"Hey, Yu Pan'er... I really didn't expect her to be such a narrow-minded person. Sister-in-law, have I caused you trouble again?"

The person who delivered the message was Huo Qiyu. After all, she was a friend she brought back, and Huo Qiyu had always been paying attention to Yu Paner, so when she talked about this, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Shen Qinglan looked at Huo Qiyu, who looked regretful but much calmer than the first time she was betrayed by Xie Wanying. She couldn't help but smile and said:

"How can life be so smooth? It's good enough that you can avoid risks in time. Moreover, I see that you are much more mature now, which means that these people can help you improve, which is good."

Huo Qiyu felt a little embarrassed when Shen Qinglan praised her. After thinking for a while, she shook her head and said:

"I just learned from my eldest sister-in-law and understood some things."

"Oh? What do you understand?" Shen Qinglan asked with a smile.

"Instead of complaining about the world, it is better to strengthen yourself. Instead of just talking about love, it is better to strengthen yourself. Instead of getting married, it is better to strengthen yourself."

Shen Qinglan listened to Huo Qiyu's words, and his expression froze for a moment. After a long while, he said helplessly:

"If mother heard what you said, she would think I was encouraging you not to get married, right?"

Huo Qiyu heard this and laughed, "Hehe", then said seriously:

"But I think that getting married is not the only choice for women, right? Sister-in-law, if you could choose, would you choose to marry my eldest brother?"

Huo Qiyu's words were very tricky.

Shen Qinglan felt that this girl seemed to have been corrupted by him.

but……

"I don't regret my choice." Shen Qinglan responded seriously.

Huo Qiyu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shen Qinglan, wanting to sigh that the relationship between his elder brother and sister-in-law was stronger than gold, but he saw Shen Qinglan's expression change from righteous words to a sly look, and said:

"It's nice to be under a big tree to enjoy the shade. I like your elder brother's tree very much."

Huo Qiyu was slightly stunned by Shen Qinglan's words. She really couldn't understand. Was her sister-in-law saying that she liked her brother? Or did she think that her brother's identity was quite useful?

Huo Qiyu didn't understand, but Huo Zhanting, who was standing outside the door, had a tense expression on his face.

Ren Wei and Li Wu, who were following behind Huo Zhanting, looked at each other with some worry and nervousness.

"Well, Master, I think the princess may not mean that..."

"Yes, the princess certainly doesn't mean to treat you as a tool."

When Li Wu said this, Ren Wei glared at him. What a fool! He and his wife have been so affectionate these days that he must be so happy that he doesn't want to leave home, right? How can you say this?

After being glared at by Ren Wei, Li Wu looked innocent, as if wondering what he had said wrong?

While the two of them were exchanging glances, Huo Zhanting had already turned and left.

Seeing this, the two hurriedly followed, and Ren Wei even trotted while persuading:

"Master, you, you, don't be angry, okay? The princess..."

Huo Zhanting simply waved his hand, a hint of seriousness flashed across his handsome face as he said:

"The princess thinks that I am her big tree, so I must not let her down. I must make the trunk stronger and more reliable, so as to live up to her expectations."

When Ren Wei and Li Wu heard what Huo Zhanting said, they slowed down their pace.

What did the master say?

Who knows? The master seems to have his own understanding?

As the two looked at each other, Huo Zhanting stopped and looked back at them, urging:

"Hurry up, return to Gyeonggi Camp, and double the training today!"

Upon hearing this, Ren Wei and Li Wu widened their eyes and found it unbelievable!

No!

It seems that my master is a little bit in love. The problem is, if you are in love, it’s fine if you hurt yourself, but why are they the ones who get hurt?

Li Wu sighed and whispered to Ren Wei, "Hey, it seems I need to have someone tell Yue'er not to wait for me tonight."

The corner of Ren Wei's mouth twitched, and he elbowed Li Wu without hesitation. Ignoring Li Wu's groan, he strode after Huo Zhanting.

Humph! A world where he is the only one hurt!

It has been over a month since the Ninth Prince led his troops to Black Swallow Mountain, but only a few news have been sent back.

I heard that the bandits on Black Swallow Mountain were very cunning and were playing hide-and-seek with the Ninth Prince.

Whenever the Ninth Prince went up the mountain to encircle and suppress the enemies, they would use a special cableway to hide in the nearby Black Cloud Mountain.

And if the people brought by the Ninth Prince need to take a rest, they will send people down the mountain to interfere.

After all, the Ninth Prince was young and could not bear the harassment any longer, so he submitted a memorial to the court, requesting more manpower so that they could surround the two mountains at once and cut off their retreat.

When this memorial reached Emperor Jingren, he was furious and said bluntly that the Ninth Prince was not up to the task.

But after all, the Ninth Prince had already been sent out. If he was recalled, the losses would be even greater.

Moreover, since he is his own son, Emperor Jingren still has to give the Ninth Prince more face.

The troops stationed in the four directions are used to prevent invasions from other countries, so they cannot be moved without authorization.

Therefore, if you want to mobilize troops, you can only mobilize the Shenwei Army outside the capital.

The Shenwei Army is the army that guards the defenses around the capital, while the Jingji Guard is the army that guards the capital. Although their responsibilities are different, their roles are both very important.

The Shenwei Army has a total of 30,000 troops stationed there, and Emperor Jingren plans to allocate half of them for support.

The Eighth Prince originally wanted to ask for permission to lead the troops to reinforce, after all, the credit for the capture of Black Swallow Mountain should have been his!

Unfortunately, the Eighth Prince did not have time to attend the morning court. He was taken away by the Queen's men outside the Golden Palace.

As a result, the task of leading the Shenwei Army to provide support fell on the shoulders of the general of the Shenwei Army, and this general of the Shenwei Army was a staunch royalist, so it seemed that the credit would not fall on the head of the Eighth Prince.

The eighth prince had a big quarrel with the queen in the queen's bedroom.

Obviously, the two had different ideas, and in the end neither could convince the other. However, due to the Queen's status, the Eighth Prince finally just walked away in anger.

The queen looked at the eighth prince's back and sighed repeatedly.

His son is energetic, but unfortunately, he is too impulsive.

If a general has this kind of drive, it is a rare quality, but if it is in an emperor, it is not a good thing.

As an emperor, what you need to do is not just rush forward blindly, but also to judge the situation and use the opponent's strength to your advantage.

Unfortunately, her son still doesn't understand.

But the queen was not in a hurry.

As long as she understands the things that the Eighth Prince doesn't understand, that's enough.

According to the plan...soon that position will fall on the eighth prince.
