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

The old princess looked at Zheng Fengyun who was feeling very aggrieved, narrowed her eyes, and couldn't help asking Gu Qinlan: "Lan'er, how do you think we should deal with this matter of Fengyun?"

Gu Qinlan leaned forward slightly and said softly, "Mother, I have an idea. Why not invite a learned and talented teacher to teach Feng Yun poetry, books, rituals and music. This way, he can recognize his mistakes, learn more knowledge and calm down."

The old princess nodded slightly, with a glimmer of approval in her eyes: "Well, this is a good idea. Feng Yun is a smart child, but he is too naughty. It's time to discipline him. Who do you think is suitable to be the teacher?"

Gu Qinlan pondered for a moment and said, "My daughter-in-law thinks that we should invite Mr. Nangong from Bailu Academy back. He used to be my brother's tutor. He is knowledgeable and well-behaved. He will definitely be able to teach Fengyun well."

A trace of joy flashed in the old princess' eyes: "Mr. Nangong? I have also heard of this person. It would be great to have him here. In this case, Lan'er, please go and invite Mr. Nangong back in person."

Gu Qinlan nodded and replied with a smile: "Don't worry, mother, your daughter-in-law will go and invite him personally."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Fengyun protested loudly, "Grandma, Yun'er doesn't want to study. Studying is meaningless! I want to go out and play!"

The old princess sat upright on a carved wooden chair, with a hint of reproach in her eyes. She patted the table lightly, and said in a gentle but firm tone: "Feng Yun, reading is the foundation of self-cultivation and a way for you to understand reason and emotions. As the second young master of Prince Duan's Mansion, how can you give up so easily?"

Zheng Fengyun pouted, walked forward, pulled the old princess's clothes, and pleaded: "Grandma, Yun'er really doesn't like to study. Big brother is smart and he likes to study, so you can let him study. Yun'er prefers to wield swords and guns. I think this is the only way to exercise and protect my family."

The old princess looked at him, a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes. She gently stroked Zheng Fengyun's hair and spoke in a softer tone: "Fengyun, your elder brother is indeed a good student, but you can't give up. Studying is not only for yourself, but also for the future of our Prince Duan's Mansion. If you give up now, how can you take on the responsibility of Prince Duan's Mansion in the future?"

Zheng Fengyun's face was a little gloomy. He lowered his head and was silent for a while, then looked up at the old princess: "Grandma, Yun'er just doesn't like reading. I read a few books, but I feel that they make me feel restricted and lose my freedom. Yun'er prefers to wield swords and guns, and that feeling makes me feel at ease."

The old princess sighed deeply. She looked at Zheng Fengyun with a complex look in her eyes: "Fengyun, I know your personality. You like freedom and being unrestrained. But you have to understand that studying does not mean you lose your freedom, but allows you to better control your own destiny. If you really like to wield swords and guns, then you can combine studying with martial arts and use knowledge to assist your martial arts."

"No, no! I don't want to listen! I won't study, I won't study!"

Zheng Fengyun still couldn't stand it anymore, and he kept humming and whining unwillingly, almost rolling on the ground and throwing a tantrum.

The old princess's face was as gloomy as water, her eyes were as cold as ice, she stared directly at Zheng Fengyun, and said in a cold tone: "Fengyun, are you challenging my bottom line?"

Zheng Fengyun raised his head, his eyes widened, his face full of dissatisfaction: "Grandma, I just don't want to study, I don't want to be one of those pedantic scholars, I want to ride a horse, I want to wield a sword and a gun, I want to be an invincible general in the world!"

The old princess frowned, a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes. She shook her head and said more sternly: "Feng Yun, what a ridiculous idea you have! The purpose of studying is to understand reason, cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. As the second young master of Prince Duan's Mansion, you shoulder the honor of the family. How can you despise your studies so much?"

After hearing this, Zheng Fengyun's face darkened. He clenched his fists tightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Grandma, I don't want to study, I don't want to study! I want to live my own way, I don't want to be bound by constraints!"

The old princess sighed at her grandson's stubbornness, but she knew that at this moment, she had to stand firm. She slowly stood up and walked in front of Zheng Fengyun, her eyes burning: "Fengyun, do you know that studying is to make you distinguish right from wrong, understand etiquette, and become a superior person. If you don't study, how can you inherit the family business in the future and become a pillar of the family?"

Zheng Fengyun looked at his grandmother's serious face, and fear surged in his heart. But he still said stubbornly: "Grandma, I don't want to study, I want to live according to my own wishes!"

The old princess' eyes turned cold, and her tone was firm: "Feng Yun, if you continue to be so stubborn, I will really use the family rules to teach you a lesson!"

Zheng Fengyun's eyes widened, his face full of shock: "Grandma, you...you really want to hit me?"

The old princess's face was serious, and her tone was unquestionable: "Feng Yun, I am doing this for your own good. If you continue to be stubborn, I will have to teach you a lesson according to the family rules."

Zheng Fengyun looked at his grandmother's determined eyes, and a feeling of powerlessness surged in his heart. He knew that it would be futile for him to say anything more, so he gritted his teeth, turned around and ran out of the room.

The old princess looked at her grandson's departing back and sighed in her heart.

Zheng Fengyun has always been rebellious, but she can't let him do whatever he wants!

Xiao Wenyin, who had been keeping silent, saw Zheng Fengyun leave in a bad mood, and hurriedly said to the old princess: "Aunt, the second young master... he seems to be in a bad mood. I'm worried that he will act impulsively and do something irrational. Why don't you let me take care of him for a while, maybe I can calm him down."

The old princess frowned slightly when she heard this, and her eyes stayed on Xiao Wenyin for a moment. Seeing her worried look, she couldn't help but sighed and nodded in agreement: "Well, go!"

After Zheng Fengyun and Xiao Wenyin left, the room suddenly became quiet. The old princess rubbed her temples, turned to look at Gu Qinlan, and said, "Lan'er, I have been feeling unwell recently. In addition, I have been busy with the affairs of the mansion. I often feel upset and sleepless at night, which really makes me miserable."

Gu Qinlan smiled slightly, walked to the old princess, gently held her hand, and said: "Mother, you have worked hard. Your daughter-in-law has noticed your condition a long time ago and specially prepared a heart-protecting pill in advance, which may be able to relieve your symptoms."

A hint of surprise flashed across the old princess's eyes. She didn't expect Gu Qinlan to care about her so attentively. She patted Gu Qinlan's hand gently and said, "Qinlan, you are really my good daughter-in-law."

Gu Qinlan smiled and replied: "Mother, it is your responsibility to care about you. As long as you can get better, I will be relieved."

As he spoke, Gu Qinlan took out a bottle of heart-protecting pills from his sleeve and handed it to the old princess: "Mother, this heart-protecting pill is made by me using dozens of precious medicinal materials. It has the effects of calming the mind, soothing the nerves, and improving sleep. You take one pill every night before going to bed, I believe it will be effective."
