"Father, grandfather, let's set off for the Kingdom of Sirius."

The little dumpling was talking to Mu Ting and the old Marquis.

This was the first time she had ever heard of the Kingdom of Sirius, and she was filled with curiosity, wanting nothing more than to set off the next day to visit it.

"No need. Princess Zhaochun is in Tianlang Kingdom. Father will write her a letter and see if she can send the Brain-Boosting Pill." Mu Ting was ruining the little dumpling's dream of going out to play.

The little dumpling pouted and said unwillingly, "Daddy, what if we can't find Princess Zhaochun? Let's go look for her together!"

Mu Ting shook his head, his straight-male syndrome kicking in, completely oblivious to his daughter's little thoughts.

“How could Princess Zhaochun not be found! By all accounts, she is your aunt.”

Hmm? Aunt?

When the little dumpling was in the palace, she had also heard of Princess Zhaochun.

But she only found out today that Princess Zhaochun was actually her aunt.

"So Princess Zhaochun is also our relative?" the little dumpling asked. "Then we should definitely go to Tianlang Kingdom to see our aunt!"

The little dumpling tried her best to persuade Mu Ting to take her to the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom.

Unfortunately, Mu Tingzheng didn't understand at all and refused outright.

"No need to go. Princess Zhaochun will find the medicine for us and send someone to deliver it."

The little dumpling pouted and sighed helplessly.

The old Marquis said to the little dumpling, "Princess Zhaochun's name is Yu Yiman, and she is the daughter of General Dingyuan."

The old Marquis recalled the past with boundless pride.

“Little dumpling, you don’t know, this General Dingyuan was also my grandfather’s good friend who fought alongside him back then. We were almost like brothers and had an unspoken understanding on the battlefield.”

"As long as we join forces, we have never been defeated."

"It's a pity that your Uncle Dingyuan sacrificed himself for the country during the war to quell the rebellion of Xinu."

As the old lord spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, as if he were seeing his friend who had shared life and death with him once again.

"After your Uncle Dingyuan died, he left behind only Yu Yiman, his only daughter. Her mother died in childbirth. The late emperor took pity on her, who lost both her father and mother at a young age, and adopted her as his goddaughter, bestowing upon her the title of Princess Zhaochun. She was brought to the palace to be cared for and grew up with your mother."

"Later, Princess Zhaochun married the crown prince of the Tianlang Kingdom. Six years ago, after the old king passed away, the crown prince and Princess Zhaochun became the new king and queen."

The old lord explained in detail, and the little girl finally understood the relationship between her aunt and her family.

"If Aunt marries into the Sirius Kingdom, won't she never be able to come back?" The little dumpling's eyes darted around, and she continued, "I really want to see Aunt. Why don't we go to the Sirius Kingdom?"

The old Marquis shook his head and said, "No need. Every few years, your aunt will return to our Longyuan Kingdom with the King of Tianlang Kingdom to stay for a period of time. This is also to show that the two countries are getting along well."

Sigh! It seems that her father and grandfather don't want to take her to the Sirius Kingdom.

The little dumpling thought dejectedly.

Seeing her reaction, Mu Jinnian immediately pointed at her and whispered to Mu Tingzheng and the old Marquis:

"The child is unhappy!"

Mu Ting and the old Marquis were completely bewildered, not understanding why their little darling was unhappy.

Mu Jinnian said, "She's upset because you didn't take her to Tianlang Kingdom!"

Mu Tingzheng and the old Marquis then realized what was going on.

Mu Tingzheng explained to her:

"Tuan'er, it's not that Daddy doesn't want to take you, but going abroad is not an easy thing."

"Although our two countries have not fought again since your aunt married into the country for a political alliance, there is only a superficial peace between the two countries."

“Our Mu family holds a pivotal position in Longyuan Kingdom. If we really go to Tianlang Kingdom, there’s no guarantee they won’t have bad intentions. Moreover, neighboring countries might launch a war against Longyuan Kingdom while Father is away.”

Mu Yanxiu listened from the side, completely confused. What country? What war? She lived in a life of luxury and had no idea about the affairs of the court and the country.

Mu Yanming listened quietly from the side, learning from Mu Tingzheng's way of analyzing the situation and thinking about things.

The old Marquis patted Mu Tingzheng and complained:

"Little dumpling is still a child, why are you telling her such complicated things?"

Mu Ting was signaling to the old Marquis with his eyes not to rush.

His daughter was by no means mediocre, and he believed she could understand.

Sure enough, after listening, the little dumpling nodded while biting his little index finger and said, "Daddy, I understand."

She then realized why her aunt had married someone so far away; she had sacrificed herself for the country.

No wonder there was chaos in the capital four years ago, which caused my mother to go missing.

Mu Ting was touching the little girl's face, still feeling a little sad, heartbroken that he couldn't fulfill his daughter's wish to travel to the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom.

"How about this, after I hand over my military post to your brothers, I will pretend to be an ordinary person and take my little dumpling to different places to play, so that you can see different customs and cultures."

The little dumpling nodded obediently.

"Okay, we'll bring Mother with us then."

Mu Ting kissed the little girl's cheek, hugged her in his arms, and said affectionately, "Okay! My good baby."

Mu Jinnian patted Mu Tingzheng on the shoulder and said:

"Dad, can I come along with you?"

"Go away!" Mu Ting's face darkened, and he took a step away from him. "You're the commander of the inner army now, you don't have time!"

Mu Tingzheng should not bring his bratty son and disturb his happy moments with his wife and daughter.

Mu Jinnian pretended to be sad and said in a pitiful voice:

"Father, you adopted all four of your sons, didn't you?"
