Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband

Xiang Zhu sighed softly, took out a box of ointment from his sleeve, and handed it to Zheng Fengyun: "This is the ointment that Madam specially prepared for your knees. Please try it."

Zheng Fengyun took the ointment, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes. He gently stroked his knees and smiled, "Mother is really considerate. I will definitely use it well."

The two walked into the flower hall, which was as warm as spring, in stark contrast to the rainy weather outside.

Zheng Fengyun sat on a soft chair while Xiang Zhu squatted beside him, carefully applying ointment for him.

Xiang Zhu said softly, "Second Young Master, you were really strong today. You knelt for so long without saying a word."

Zheng Fengyun smiled bitterly: "I just don't want people to see my vulnerability."

As he spoke, he looked at Xiang Zhu and said with some guilt: "Sister Xiang Zhu, I really didn't mean to hurt your hand today, you...you must not misunderstand."

Xiang Zhu glanced at him calmly, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly, and said: "Xiang Zhu understands what the Second Young Master said. But if I encounter such a thing again next time, Xiang Zhu will stop it without hesitation and will never let anyone hurt Princess Duan."

Zheng Fengyun was slightly stunned. He did not expect Xiang Zhu to be so resolute. He pondered for a moment and slowly said, "Sister Xiang Zhu, I know you are loyal to the princess, but you should also understand that I am the young master of Prince Duan's mansion. There are some things I must do."

Xiang Zhu's eyes were firm, and his tone was even more resolute: "Second Young Master, Xiang Zhu will never give in on this matter. If that day really comes, Xiang Zhu would rather risk his life to protect the princess."

Zheng Fengyun took a deep breath and tried to ease the atmosphere: "Sister Xiangzhu, I understand your concerns. But what happened today was indeed a misunderstanding. I didn't mean to offend the princess, but... I was just too impatient."

Xiang Zhu frowned slightly, his eyes rolled around, and he smiled, "Second Young Master, do you know how much the princess loves you? She specially customized that dragon tongue bow for you, and the princess cares about you so much."

Zheng Fengyun was slightly stunned, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He had never thought that Gu Qinlan would be so attentive to him. He frowned slightly, as if thinking about something, and then slowly said: "Xiang Zhu, are you telling the truth?"

Xiang Zhu smiled lightly, with a cunning light flashing in her eyes: "Of course it is true, otherwise, how dare I speak nonsense in front of you. The princess mentioned it to me. She said that the dragon tongue bow was specially made for you. I hope you like it."

A warm feeling welled up in Zheng Fengyun's heart. He didn't expect that Gu Qinlan would consider him so carefully.

He smiled slightly, his eyes full of gratitude: "Xiang Zhu, thank you for telling me this. I always thought that the princess was cold and indifferent to me, but now I know that she has always cared about me."

Xiang Zhu looked at Zheng Fengyun's expression and secretly rejoiced in her heart, knowing that her goal had been achieved. She said softly: "Second Young Master, in fact, the princess has always cared about you, but you just didn't notice it. She has been silently paying for you, but she didn't want you to know."

Zheng Fengyun was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Xiang Zhu, I want to go and thank the princess. Can you take me with you?"

Xiang Zhu smiled slightly and nodded in response: "Of course, Second Young Master. However, you have to prepare a gift to express your gratitude to the Princess."

A trace of doubt flashed across Zheng Fengyun's eyes: "Then what gift should I give?"

Xiang Zhu thought for a while, then said, "Why not give her a bouquet of flowers you picked yourself? The princess likes jasmine, and you picking the flowers yourself can better express your sincerity."

Zheng Fengyun heard this, a glimmer of joy flashed in his eyes, and he immediately nodded and agreed: "Okay, then I will go to the back garden to pick flowers now!"

After Xiang Zhu left, Zheng Fengyun went out, intending to pick jasmine flowers in the back garden, but unexpectedly he ran into Xiao Wenyin walking towards him at the door.

Zheng Fengyun was slightly stunned, and looking at Xiao Wenyin's worried eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart. He turned around and waved to the attendants behind him, signaling them to go ahead, and he walked to the corridor and stood opposite Xiao Wenyin.

"Sister Xiao, why are you here?" Zheng Fengyun smiled slightly, trying to hide the pain in his feet.

Xiao Wenyin's eyes fell on Zheng Fengyun's feet, and the worry on her face became more and more obvious: "Fengyun, your feet..."

Zheng Fengyun took two steps back and tried to look relaxed: "It's okay, just a small problem."

Wenqin couldn't help but stand up and snorted in the direction of Gu Qinlan's courtyard: "Princess Duan is really cruel. If our young lady became Princess Duan, she would definitely not let the second young master suffer like this."

Xiao Wenyin frowned and gently rebuked: "Wenqin, don't talk nonsense."

Zheng Fengyun was also a little displeased. He frowned and looked at Wenqin: "What nonsense are you talking about? Wenqin, if you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Wenqin was so frightened that her face turned pale and she quickly lowered her head.

Zheng Fengyun looked at Xiao Wenyin, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes: "Sister Xiao, you don't have to worry about me. I... I'm fine."

Xiao Wenyin sighed softly, walked forward, and carefully checked Zheng Fengyun's ankle: "Fengyun, are you really okay?"

Zheng Fengyun smiled slightly and grabbed Xiao Wenyin's hand: "I'm really fine. Sister Xiao, don't worry."

"How could the princess have the heart to make you kneel for so long that you couldn't even walk. Oh!" Xiao Wenyin pretended to wipe away tears, shaking her head and sighing.

Zheng Fengyun raised his head and chest, and said seriously: "Mother did this to educate me, how dare I take it seriously. Kneeling is nothing."

When Xiao Wenyin heard this, her eyes froze slightly. She pursed her lips tightly, and a huge wave of emotion rose in her heart.

She walked slowly to Zheng Fengyun's side, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

Feng Yun, Feng Yun, what's wrong with you? You have always been cold to Gu Qinlan, but today you actually call her mother?

Could it be that you really have started to have different feelings for her? What should I do?

Xiao Wenyin coughed lightly, trying to hide her panic, and then slowly said: "Feng Yun, why are you doing this? The pain of being punished to kneel is not as painful as the pain in my heart. Do you really not mind?"

Zheng Fengyun smiled slightly, with a hint of determination in that smile: "Sister Xiao, my mother taught me a lot, how can I forget this kindness just because of a momentary anger?"

Xiao Wenyin frowned. Zheng Fengyun's attitude towards Gu Qinlan made her feel a little uneasy.

She took a deep breath and tried to find the right words: "Feng Yun, I know you are a filial child, but don't forget that you are Prince Duan's favorite son. Your every move will affect the stability of the entire palace."

Zheng Fengyun shook his head slightly, and said firmly: "Sister Xiao, I know what I am doing. I respect my mother and cannot change my mind because of other people's opinions."
