"Your elder brother Changsheng has just ascended the throne, and the national treasury is empty. I'm afraid he can't come up with so much grain!"

If he had the means, Lu Wujiu wouldn't have left this memorial here, and even circled it several times with red ink.

He should be preparing provisions now.

Where will the supplies come from?

Su Jiaoniang's gaze fell upon the Wang family!

A few days ago, Futu massacred the Wang family. The Wang family had been passed down for thousands of years, and it was unknown how much grain they had stored. It was likely that the Wang family, one of the four great families, was not poor, even compared to the Changsheng national treasury.

If the Wang family isn't enough.

There are also the Lu family, the Cui family, and the Xie family!

However, it would be impossible to get supplies from these people without some means.

There will likely be more bloodshed then.

Su Jiaoniang took a deep breath.

Whether it's the Wang and Xie families or the Cui and Lu families, would they be destroyed so easily?

Is there really no successor?

She doesn't believe it!

A cunning rabbit has three burrows; how could the Wang and Xie families not have secret passages? Perhaps they knew that someone had escaped, but they didn't care.

Thinking of this, Su Jiaoniang felt a strong urge to strangle Lu Wujiu.

This is something that people are eyeing and coveting, and they actually let the Buddha do it.

Is it because they're afraid that the Buddha won't become a villain?

After thinking about it, I realized I should take this opportunity to make a set of soft armor for Futu, which could protect him from swords and spears and safeguard his vital parts.

Even underwear shouldn't be forgotten.

Others can protect your heart.

If you replace it with a pagoda, the heart, spleen, kidneys, and other vital organs of a man will all need it.

The villain's luck is mysterious and unpredictable.

She fears that if proper precautions aren't taken, the outcome will be the same for everyone!

Su Jiaoniang didn't know much about the raw materials in this world, nor did she know if there were any protective items, but every dynasty had some treasures, and Lu Wujiu was now the regent.

If you don't have a good piece of armor.

That doesn't make sense.

Time slipped away second by second.

The little girl picked up a pen and paper and began practicing calligraphy.

At this moment, Su Jiaoniang heard the voices of a servant passing by outside.

"Your Highness is finally back! The Princess Consort has returned with the young master. Things are probably going to be tough from now on!"

"Say less, or you'll be in big trouble if someone hears you!"

The little girl paused for a moment, her pen still in her hand.

His gaze fell on Su Jiaoniang.

Su Jiaoniang closed the folded book and took Xiaoya to watch the excitement.

He quietly led the little girl to the backyard.

Once in the backyard, they jumped onto the roof.

Zhao Yan saw Xiao Ya and Su Jiaoniang climbing onto the roof and wanted to stop them, but then he thought of the prince's attitude and was caught in a dilemma.

One is a former princess with her own child, and the other is the apple of her master's eye.

this……

Caught in the middle, even he, as the guard, didn't know what to do!

Let's pretend we didn't see it!

His professional skills are not very good.

Su Jiaoniang lifted the tile, and Xiao Ya imitated her, lifting another tile, revealing two big heads and four eyes inside.

Staring at the couple who had been reunited after a long separation.

Zhao Yan's Adam's apple bobbed; the scene was terrifying.

He jumped down from the tree and walked into the house.

He casually mentioned the affairs of the general, subtly relayed the message to Lu Wujiu, and then turned and left.

The rest is up to the prince.

He's just a lowly guard; he can't interfere too much.

Lu Wujiu's gaze fell on the former princess. The former princess was dignified and elegant, dressed in very simple clothes. She had pierced ears, but no jewelry.

The hairpin was simple, just an old jade hairpin.

She wore a chain made of braided rope around her neck, which didn't look overly simple.

At that moment, she saw Lu Wujiu, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"His Highness's health has improved a lot. His cough from that day seems to have healed now. Lingzhi, come here. This is your father." The former princess beckoned to the young boy behind her.

The boy took a few steps forward!

His clothes were faded from washing.

He clasped his hands in a respectful bow, looking at Lu Wujiu with intense gaze and expectant eyes: "Your son greets Father!"

Lu Wujiu raised his hand and inquired about his birth date and academic progress.

He said, "The Imperial Academy has already started, and Lingzhi will go there to study. Zhao Yan will take care of everything. You've had a long journey, so just go and rest!" Lu Wujiu said, taking care of the child's future life directly.

He was confined to the Imperial Academy.

As for getting along?

That's impossible.

He's not the real Gu Xizhou.

There's no need to cultivate a relationship with this princess in front of me. She's someone who's been involved with other men. She spent some time at the Imperial Ancestral Temple and now she wants to return to being a princess. There's no such thing as a free lunch.

The former princess was taken aback.

Looking at Lu Wujiu, she gently bit her lip: "Xizhou, could you let Lingzhi go and rest first? There are some things I want to tell you!"

Lu Wujiu stared at the person in front of him, not really wanting to agree.

However, Gu Lingzhi had already left the room.

He even closed the door behind him.

The former princess glanced at the tightly closed door, a bitter smile appearing on her lips: "If you think my actions that day damaged your reputation, my younger sister can marry into the royal family and become Ling's stepmother. I wouldn't be willing to be that mother to anyone else, but I'm willing to be with my younger sister. What happened in Xizhou that day wasn't what you saw!"

"..." Lu Wujiu's gaze fell on the former princess, who was tearful.

Staring at this woman.

I just found it funny.

Fortunately, he wasn't that prince.

Otherwise, how could one feel good when people keep complaining about the Green Green Grassland?

I don't know if the person in front of me is smart or stupid.

The former princess looked at Lu Wujiu with a hint of sorrow on her face: "I know I shouldn't have appeared in front of you in this life, but Lingzhi is your son, and I have to make sure he has someone to protect him. It's understandable that you're angry with me."
