Although he had thousands of men protecting him these days, and local officials protecting him wherever he went, he was always on edge. Especially after taking a knife for the Crown Prince, he became even more cautious. When he was on the verge of death after taking the knife, he thought that if he died, A-Jun would become an orphan. His mother was also old. Who would protect his daughter? How could an orphan survive in this world?

Thankfully, he didn't die. He narrowly escaped death and came back. If Ah Jun hadn't grown up, he would have wanted to hold her in his arms and say, "Father was worried about you."

Zhao Shu turned her head, feigning disobedience, "Why shouldn't I say it? My father is the best father in the world, why can't I say it? I'll say it anyway."

"Tell your father, has anyone bullied you while he was away?" Prince Yong pulled her to sit on the vermilion chair in the carriage, while he himself sat on the vermilion folding board beside him. Fortunately, the folding board had a brocade cushion, so the carriage bumps and it didn't hurt.

Zhao Shu shook her head. "Father should be worried about whether A-Jun is bullying others." She smiled happily, swinging her legs up and down, occasionally looking out the carriage window, imagining that every time her father entered a city, countless people would stand on both sides just to catch a glimpse of the emperor's son, bowing three times and nine times and shouting "Long live the emperor!" What glory and prestige that must have been.

"Father, can A-Jun sit here and enter the city later?" This is outside the city. It's fine if the common people see her, but if the noble families see her, they will impeach her again.

Prince Yong patted her head affectionately and said, "What's the harm? When we enter the city, your father will switch with you."

Zhao Shu thought of the military parade, when she rode in the imperial entourage that had toured the country. Although it was different now, it still made her blood boil.
