On the day of rebirth, I took my baby to find Jiuqiansui to recognize his relatives

They know that no matter how difficult the future will be, with this faith and persistence, they will surely see a bright day.

The next morning, the morning sun shone into the courtyard of the Jiang Mansion, as if to dispel the uneasiness of the previous night. Ah Yan was still sleeping soundly, but was awakened by his mother.

"Ayan, get up quickly, the emperor summons you." Jiang Yanwan said in a low voice, her eyes full of worry.

Ah Yan rubbed his eyes and asked in confusion: "Mother, why does the emperor want to see me?"

"I don't know, but you must remember, no matter what the emperor asks, you must answer truthfully, understand?" Jiang Yanwan reminded.

A Yan nodded. Although he was a little nervous, he quickly changed his clothes and followed his mother to the palace.

As soon as they arrived at the palace gate, a eunuch was already waiting there, and respectfully led them into the hall. The emperor sat on the dragon throne, his face majestic, making the whole hall filled with a heavy atmosphere.

After Jiang Yanwan and A Yan saluted, the emperor said coldly: "A Yan, come here."

Ah Yan took a deep breath, walked to the emperor, and knelt down respectfully: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The emperor looked at the safety lock on Ah Yan's chest with sharp eyes, and his expression suddenly became complicated: "Who gave you this safety lock?"

Ah Yan pursed his lips and answered carefully: "It was given to me by Uncle Wu...Uncle Wu Junyao."

Hearing this name, the emperor's face darkened and his brows knitted: "Wu Junyao? Why would he give you such a precious thing?"

Ah Yan raised his head to look at the emperor, then secretly glanced at his mother standing next to him, and whispered, "Uncle Wu said that this is a token of blessing for peace."

The emperor sneered: "Intentions? How could a dignified Wu Junyao have such intentions?"

He stood up suddenly, his pressure sweeping over like a mountain: "Ayan, what is the secret of this safety lock?"

Ah Yan felt a strong pressure and was so nervous that his voice trembled: "Your Majesty, I... I don't know, I only know that this was given to me by my uncle..."

The emperor's eyes were gloomy, and he suddenly waved his hand to signal the guards: "Come here, bring Wu Junyao in!"

Soon, Wu Junyao was escorted into the hall. He looked calm and saluted the emperor: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The emperor looked at him coldly: "Wu Junyao, what is the purpose of the safety lock you gave to Ah Yan?"

Wu Junyao smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, this safety lock was indeed given to Ah Yan by me. I have no other intentions, it is simply to protect his safety."

The emperor snorted coldly: "Blessing peace? Do you think I will believe this?"

Wu Junyao's eyes were firm: "Every word I said is true. If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can have someone carefully check the safety lock to see if there are any mechanisms or foreign objects."

The emperor heard this, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he signaled the guard to take down the safety lock and check it carefully. The guard carefully checked it for a moment, and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the safety lock before handing it back to the emperor.

The emperor stared at the safety lock, pondered for a moment, and suddenly turned to Jiang Yanwan: "Jiang, what do you think?"

Jiang Yanwan lowered her eyebrows and answered respectfully, "Your Majesty, this safety lock is a token of General Wu's love, and there is no other intention. Please understand your majesty."

The emperor sighed, returned the safety lock to Ah Yan, and said with a slightly relieved expression: "In this case, I will trust you for once. But if there is a similar situation again, I will not let you off easily!"

Ah Yan tightly grasped the safety lock and nodded solemnly, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Wu Junyao also breathed a sigh of relief, his expression still firm: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your insight."

The emperor waved his hand, signaling them to leave. Jiang Yanwan and A Yan quickly bowed and left, and Wu Junyao also left.

After leaving the hall, Jiang Yanwan held Ah Yan's hand tightly and whispered, "Ah Yan, it's over. You did a great job."

Ah Yan nodded heavily, but still felt a little uneasy: "Mother, why does the emperor care so much about this safety lock?"

Jiang Yanwan stroked his head and said softly, "Perhaps it's because there are past events behind this safety lock that he doesn't want to mention."

Afterwards, Wu Junyao took Jiang Yanwan to the training ground, and Jiang Yanwan suddenly wanted to learn archery.

"You need to keep your hand steady when you draw the bow like this."

Jiang Yanwan was standing behind Wu Junyao, listening attentively to his explanation of archery techniques, her face full of seriousness.

"Well, I understand." She nodded and tried to adjust her bow grip, but her hand still shook and she accidentally loosened the string, causing the arrow to miss the center of the target and land on the outer ring.

Wu Junyao smiled slightly and patted her shoulder gently, "Don't worry, you will get better and better with more practice."

Jiang Yanwan felt Wu Junyao's warm palm and couldn't help feeling a little distracted. She forced herself to concentrate, but the throbbing in her heart was hard to calm down.

At this moment, a guard came running over with a solemn expression: "General Wu, the emperor has ordered you to enter the palace as soon as possible."

Wu Junyao frowned slightly, knowing that it must be an emergency: "Got it, I'll go right away." He looked at Jiang Yanwan with some apology in his eyes, "It seems that today's training will have to be suspended for the time being."

Jiang Yanwan forced a smile and said, "It's okay, go ahead and do your work."

Wu Junyao nodded, turned around and left quickly.

A moment later, Wu Junyao was already standing in the hall, bowing respectfully: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The emperor looked solemn, holding a memorial in his hand. He looked up at Wu Junyao and said, "The south has been hit by heavy rains recently, causing severe flooding. No one in the court can handle this important task. I have decided to send you to govern the area. Are you willing to take on this task?"

Wu Junyao answered without hesitation: "I am willing to do my best and live up to the emperor's trust."

The emperor nodded: "Okay! I feel relieved to have you here. Get ready and leave as soon as possible."

Wu Junyao bowed again: "I accept your order!"

After leaving the palace, Wu Junyao returned to the mansion and saw Jiang Yanwan waiting for him anxiously.

"What's going on? What did the emperor call you to do?" Jiang Yanwan asked impatiently.

Wu Junyao said in a deep voice: "The flood in the south is serious, and the emperor ordered me to go and deal with it."

Jiang Yanwan immediately showed worry on her face: "It's so dangerous, I'm worried about you going alone. Ah Yan and I will go with you, and we can help take care of you."

Wu Junyao felt warm in his heart, but still shook his head: "The flooded area is extremely dangerous and not suitable for you to accompany."

Jiang Yanwan said stubbornly, "I don't care. I just don't trust you." She held her son's hand and said, "Ayan, can we go together?"

A trace of confusion flashed across Ah Yan's young face, but he still nodded: "Okay, whatever mother says is what it is."
