Moreover, the Medicine King doesn’t know yet that she has accepted his son as her disciple. If he knew, who knows what would happen.

However, she has never been a timid person. No matter what the Medicine King wants to do, she will be more submissive considering the great benefit he has given her today. After all, she is a little girl, and it is not shameful for her to be submissive in front of the dignified Lord of Medicine King Valley.

Xiang Yuanqing re-established a training strategy for her. Sikong Zhan arrived on time in the morning. Xiang Yuanqing was very considerate and returned to his room for breakfast, leaving the space for Sikong Zhan and Lin Jinghan.

"Your Highness, when will Doctor Ran come back?" Lin Jinghan was thinking about this in her heart, thinking that as long as Doctor Ran came back, she would tell the Medicine King about their master-disciple relationship.

"I estimate he should arrive today or tomorrow. If you are anxious, I will send someone to call him back." Sikong Zhan picked up the bowl, filled it with porridge, skillfully used his internal force to cool it down, and placed it in front of Lin Jinghan.

"Thank you." She smiled, took the porridge and started drinking it, politely but distantly.

She knew that it was not easy for such a domineering man to change so much, but he and Mu Wenyao had conspired to deceive her feelings, and she could not get over it. No matter what tricks he used to seduce girls, she would never let her guard down again.

She must watch her heart and must not get carried away by his deliberate kindness to her.

She also thought it through. If he treated her well, she would fulfill her duties as Princess Jingnan and do what she should do, while keeping the appropriate distance from him. If he treated her badly, she would write down all his bad deeds and return them to him one by one when she had the chance in the future.

Prince Jingnan was determined to accomplish something, and no matter how many difficulties he encountered, he would never give up halfway, not to mention that this was related to his lifelong happiness. Knowing that his little princess had a strong hold on his heart and would not easily accept him, he was prepared for a protracted war and was not discouraged at all. He picked up food for her from time to time and was extremely gentle.

After breakfast, the two of them got into the carriage together. As usual, she sat as far away from him and lifted the curtain to look at the scenery.

He also lifted the carriage curtain and put his head close to hers, looking at the scenery with her. "Jinghan likes looking at the scenery outside the carriage window so much. I am very curious. Now, it seems that enjoying the scenery outside the carriage window is indeed more interesting than staying in the carriage. How about, next time we go out, we don't take a carriage, but ride a horse instead, okay?"

"Not good." She retracted her head and returned to the carriage.

"First, riding a horse is not as comfortable as riding a carriage, and it's too conspicuous. Second, there are only two of us in the carriage. If we get together to look at the scenery, the carriage's center of gravity is unstable and it will easily tip over. So, if Your Highness likes to look at the scenery, please separate from me, and each of us has a window."

Sikong Zhan also returned to the carriage, stared at Lin Jinghan, thought for a moment, and said seriously:

"What is the center of gravity? Jinghan, don't worry. Our carriage is well-made. Besides, the driver was chosen by you personally. He has been driving for decades, so his skills are beyond doubt. Therefore, without external force, the carriage will not overturn. Most importantly, if it really overturns, your husband will protect you and will never let you get hurt."

Lin Jinghan's mouth twitched, and she stood up and sat on the bench opposite, explaining seriously:

"The so-called center of gravity means that if we sit on either side of the carriage like we are now, both sides will be equally heavy, and the center of gravity will be right in the middle, making it less likely to tip over. On the contrary, if we sit on both sides at the same time, then the side we sit on will be heavier, and the center of gravity will shift, making it more likely to tip over."

This explanation was easy to understand, and Sikong Zhan understood it. He nodded seriously, stood up and sat next to Lin Jinghan, "Jinghan's summary is very accurate. Let's go to the military camp tomorrow and talk to the soldiers about it. Let them understand that when driving a car in battle, they should separate the two sides and try to keep the weight on both sides equal to avoid overturning."

Lin Jinghan's mouth twitched. She didn't want to continue this topic with him, lest she get mad. After thinking about it, she decided to give him a shot of prevention and dropped a bombshell.

"Your Majesty, I have accepted a disciple."

Sikong Zhan frowned, "When did it happen? Is it a boy or a girl?" How come he didn't know?

Lin Jinghan sat upright, carefully observing his reaction, and said slowly:

"He's a man, the prince knows him, he's in our palace."

Sikong Zhan pondered for a moment, "It's Ran Zizhen." He used an affirmative tone.

"Yeah." She wasn't surprised at all that he could guess it so quickly.

He blinked and analyzed carefully:

"If Ran Zi really had another identity, it would be fine, but he is the son of the Medicine King, and the Medicine King specially released him to gain experience. I guess he wants him to inherit the Medicine King Valley in the future. I don't think the Medicine King will let him recognize an outsider as his master. This is a difficult matter. Let me think about it carefully."

She thought that with his intelligence, he should know that this was a matter between him, Yao Wang, and Ran Zizhen, and that others should not interfere, so she told him the truth first. But judging from his expression, he actually wanted to interfere? She immediately made her attitude clear:

"This is my own business, I will handle it myself. Your Highness, don't worry about it. I'm telling you this just to give you a heads-up so you don't get caught off guard when the truth is revealed."

He nodded, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. I won't let the Medicine King make things difficult for you."

As they were talking, the carriage had already reached the ten thousand mu lotus pond. The driver, Li Cheng, said respectfully, "Your Highness, Princess, we're here."

After the two got off the carriage, someone came to lead them to the boat, "Your Highness, the boat is ready. This place has been sealed off and no one will disturb us."

The boat Sikong Zhan had prepared was magnificent and spacious, with every amenity available. The lotus flowers here were probably there for tourists to admire, with a spacious waterway running through the blossoms, specifically for boats.

As the cruise ship sailed among the lotus flowers, Lin Jinghan felt as if she was completely surrounded by the flowers - the lingering fragrance of the flowers made her feel relaxed and happy; the breeze blew, and the flowers and leaves swayed in the wind, even more graceful than the graceful girl.

"So beautiful!" Lin Jinghan praised sincerely.

She looked at the flowers, and he looked at her, his lips curled up in happiness. "If Jinghan likes them, we can transplant some in the palace, okay?"

Lin Jinghan casually picked a lotus flower and asked, "Your Highness, do these lotus flowers have owners?"

"This entire ten thousand mu lotus pond is the property of Pingnan Hou. During the flowering season, in addition to the time when flower viewing banquets are held here, Pingnan Hou Mansion will open this place. As long as you pay, you can use the boat to enjoy the flowers here. However, Pingnan Hou Mansion treasures its own lotus flowers very much. No matter who picks the lotus flowers here, they have to pay money to buy them." Sikong Zhan smiled dotingly and picked a lotus flower.

"However, Jinghan, don't worry. I have some connections with Marquis Pingnan, so it won't be difficult for me to transplant some."
