Shen Huaixu asked Nanny Ji to teach him palace etiquette in an afternoon.

Her strengths as a special forces soldier were also well demonstrated here - she was able to control her walking very well and prevent her body from shaking violently.

Nanny Ji was a little surprised by Shen Huaixu's performance. This young master was learning things too quickly.

"Miss, have you learned this before?" she asked tentatively.

Chen Huaixu shook his head, "Never. Madam, did you come from the palace? How come you are so familiar with the affairs of the palace?"

"I am an old maid in the palace. I am old, and my children have lost contact in the war. So I thought of working as a foster nanny in the family of a noble in the capital. I can save some money and buy a farm in my hometown to live in in my old age. I heard that the Marquis's family needed a foster nanny, so I came here."

"Mammy, do you recognize Daddy?"

Nanny Ji shook her head. "How could I recognize the Marquis? I heard a little bit about him in the capital when he was still a general. I heard that he was called 'Rakshasa' and could stop children from crying at night. Now that I have seen him in person, I feel that the rumors are really exaggerated."

Shen Huaixu smiled: "Having such a title is a recognition of Daddy's military career."

Then, she asked about some things in the palace and learned that the current emperor and the empress were deeply in love. Apart from the empress, only Concubine Xian was quite favored in the palace. It didn't sound like the fierce palace fighting described in novels and TV dramas.

The next day, Chen Huaixu got up early, dressed himself, took his first aid kit, and headed for the palace.

Fu Tuan changed into a form invisible to others and followed Shen Huaixu.

It looked dejected and angrily said, "Host, I already said I don't want to go to the palace, why do you insist on making me come?"

What are you doing at home? Cheating?

【Who stole it?! 】

[Don't think I don't know that you stole all the food on the table last night.]

Fu Tuan lost his previous arrogance and secretly decided to eat less next time to avoid being discovered.

The house was indeed very close to the imperial city, and the carriage took only about quarter of an hour to reach the palace gate.

When they arrived at the palace gate, they got off the carriage and had to enter on foot after passing the guards' inspection.

Not long after walking beside Shen Su, Shen Huaixu saw a familiar eunuch standing not far away.

"Daddy, is that Eunuch Xi?"

"It's him." Chen Su raised a smile, took a few quick steps and greeted each other.

Eunuch Xi glanced at Shen Huaixu who was looking at him curiously, "Young lady, we meet again."

"Is your father-in-law feeling better?"

"Thank you for your concern, young lady. I feel better after taking the medicine." Eunuch Xi said to Shen Su, "Lord Shen, I am here to lead the way for you."

Chen Su nodded slightly, and the few of them walked forward together.

Shen Huaixu observed the palace curiously as he walked.

This was where the most powerful people in the ancient world lived, and it was also the richest place. After looking at it for a while, she asked Fu Tuan to scan the topographic map of the palace and save it for future use.

Then he folded his hands in front of his abdomen and walked meticulously.

Eunuch Xi occasionally looked back at her and saw that after her initial curiosity, her expression became more cautious, and he nodded in satisfaction.

Soon, everyone stopped in front of a hall. Shen Huaixu stood obediently beside Shen Su without even raising his head.

A person called Aunt Yao by Eunuch Xi came out and bowed to Shen Su. She checked Shen Huaixu's medicine box and went in to report after finding that there was no problem.

A gentle voice came from behind the screen in the center of the hall, "Your Majesty, Marquis Xuanping and his daughter are here."

Soon, Shen Huaixu saw the two masters of this country with his own eyes - the emperor and the queen.

With just a quick glance, she and Chen Su knelt on the ground together.

"My dear, please stand up."

A weak voice sounded in my ears.

Shen Huaixu stood up along with his father and looked at the queen and the emperor on the bed.

After seeing the emperor lying on the bed, Shen Su frowned slightly, his expression moved, "Your Majesty, your body..."

The emperor looked at Chen Su with surprise, a slight smile on his face, "Huizhi, you look like this reminds me of the time when you saved me on the battlefield. You are just like you were back then. But I... cough cough cough..."

"Your Majesty!" Chen Su took a step forward, his face anxious.

The Queen's face was a little haggard, but her beauty could not be concealed. She patted His Majesty's back skillfully and said to Shen Su with a smile, "Don't panic, Marquis Xuanping. Your Majesty contracted a cough a few years ago, so speaking may be a little difficult. You haven't seen each other for a long time, so why not take this opportunity to talk?"

"I would be delighted to have your daughter in my care, Your Majesty."

The queen nodded slightly, stood up and looked at Shen Huaixu with a smile, "Are you the daughter that Lord Shen just found? Will you come with me?"

Shen Huaixu smiled sweetly, nodded, and followed the Queen out.

Soon, the two of them, along with a group of palace servants, arrived in another warm room. The queen looked at Shen Huaixu and nodded, saying, "His eyebrows and eyes are indeed similar to those of Marquis Xuanping."

She beckoned Shen Huaixu to come forward.

"Do you have a nickname? How old are you this year?"

"Your Majesty, my name is Chen Huaixu, my nickname is Miaomiao, and I am ten years old."

According to Chen Su, she was born in October, but because she was born prematurely, she looked smaller. She was said to be eight or nine years old, but others could not tell.

"I heard you have medical skills? Or are you the little miracle doctor that people say you have? You are so amazing at such a young age, who is your teacher?"

Shen Huaixu repeated his previous explanation to the Queen, "... Doctor Kang, Doctor Ji, and Doctor Qiao from the Qingnang Hall are all considered my teachers. They all taught me medicine."

The queen looked at Shen Huaixu's well-behaved appearance, and her eyes softened. "I heard that your father, Marquis Xuanping's illness was also cured by you, right?"

Shen Huaixu frowned and shook his head hesitantly, "...not really. I mostly used the medicine left by my master, so I consider it her fault."

The Queen had not expected Shen Huaixu to be so honest, and was stunned for a moment, "Then where is your master now?"

After asking this question, she thought of what Eunuch Xi had said before, and a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes.

"I don't know where Master has gone, but I still have one medicine left."

The Queen looked at Shen Huaixu intently, and finally sighed softly, "Miaomiao, can you treat His Majesty who is just on the sickbed?"

These words scared Shen Huaixu. Is this queen so down-to-earth?

She was about to kneel down when she was stopped. The Queen withdrew her hand and said to Shen Huaixu with a smile, "No need to be polite in front of me. His Majesty is my husband. If your father hadn't saved him back then, I'm afraid I would have died with him."

Shen Huaixu said sternly, "This minister must do what is incumbent upon him."
