The second prince is still alive after eating the chicken leg.
He let out a sigh of relief and went back to his room to take a nap.
At 1:45 in the afternoon, the sunlight shines through the gauze curtains.
The quilts were extremely warm in the winter and the princes were in a deep sleep.
Wu Qing put away his pocket watch and knocked on the doors one by one to wake up Big Bear and Little Bear who were taking a nap.
"Wake up, it's time for class!"
At Wu Qing's call, the eldest prince relied on his last bit of self-control, opened his eyes with difficulty, and struggled to climb up from the soft bed.
When he staggered to the door of the room, the second prince was being held by the collar by Wu Qing and being carried out like a chick.
He was only wearing a light purple robe, which was obviously put on in a hurry, and his hair crown also looked a little messy, no longer as neat as usual.
That disheveled appearance was very different from the refined image that the Second Prince usually displayed.
Wu Qing's action can be said to have directly gotten rid of the image burden of the second prince.
The eldest prince paused while wiping the corner of his eyes and couldn't help laughing out loud.
The second prince, who was dragged out by force because he was too sleepy to get up, became angry and said, "...What are you looking at!"
The eldest prince was even more delighted when he heard the shameful and angry curses.
"Second brother, you should eat more meat. No matter what, it's a bit exaggerated that Lady Ji can lift you up with one hand."
The palace maids in the prince's residence also lowered their heads, pursed their lips, and tried their best not to look at the embarrassment of the second prince.
Although they were laughing secretly in their hearts, they pretended to be calm on the surface, for fear of angering the prince who was already angry.
Wu Qing smiled and asked, "Are you awake now?"
[How can you sleep at your age? Twelve is the age to strive for success!]
The second prince complained in a low voice, his ears turning red: "Put me down first!"
The Second Prince's face felt hot when he was mentioned so easily by a woman of similar age.
He looked around and found that the prince's servants were all secretly looking at them, their eyes filled with various meanings.
The Second Prince muttered to himself angrily.
Didn't she just say a few angry words to Lady Ji when she got up? Why did she have to humiliate him like this in public?
Wu Qing put him down easily, clapped his hands and said, "You are so small, you are really light. I can lift you up with one hand."
The second prince snorted coldly.
He didn't care about Concubine Ji! As long as Concubine Mu liked it, he would never let himself gain weight.
"Let's go." Wu Qing rubbed his hands, much more excited than the two children, "It's time for physical education class!"
[I can see handsome guys and learn martial arts at the same time, it's a win-win situation for me! 】
…
There is a large open space behind the Imperial Garden, which is often used as a temporary training place for the imperial guards.
Today, this place has become the place where the princes take physical education classes.
In the center of the mirror-like venue, Fang Rongan, the most powerful master of Chen State and the renowned commander of the imperial guards, had been waiting for a long time.
He was dressed in military uniform, looking very heroic. His back figure had the unrestrained elegance of a handsome man, yet also the dignified demeanor of a general.
[As expected of the original hero.] Wu Qing sighed.
[To be honest, if I were the heroine Zhu Hanfei, I would definitely choose Fang Rongan instead of the emperor.]
[The emperor has a complicated mind, he is both sentimental and suspicious, and the age gap between him and the heroine is like a chasm. In Zhu Hanfei's heart, her feelings for the emperor are probably more of a use than a true love.]
[If the heroine's sister had not died at the hands of the imperial concubine, the heroine might have been able to marry Fang Rong'an and live a peaceful and happy life. ]
【Alas, what a sin. 】
[According to the progress of the original text, Fang Rongan seems to be getting engaged soon? With this barrier, it will be more difficult for the two to be together. ]
Fang Rongan stood there, looking up at the sky, blinking in confusion: "..."
What kind of martial arts is this that can transmit sound through the air? It's amazing.
However, the words spoken by this unfathomable martial arts master seemed so strange and confusing.
Who is Zhu Hanfei?
He and the girl had never met each other, so why did this man say that they were a perfect match made in heaven?
...Also, when was he going to get engaged? Why didn't he know anything about it?
The princes greeted Fang Rongan one after another: "Hello, Commander Fang!"
Fang Rong'an nodded slightly, his expression calm and undisturbed.
Fang Rong'an is twenty-four years old this year. He has been the commander of the imperial guards in the palace for five years. It can be said that he has watched the princes grow up.
The eldest prince and the second prince both wanted to recruit this commander of the imperial guards with extraordinary martial arts skills under their command, so naturally they would not look at him unkindly.
Wu Qing walked up to Fang Rong'an and bowed politely: "Commander Fang, nice to meet you. I'll have to trouble you a lot with these two children in the future."
Fang Rong'an bowed in return, his voice steady and powerful: "Mr. Ji, you are too kind. This is my duty. If you need any help from now on, please just give me your orders."
"After meeting you today, I can see that you are indeed a man of great character and talent. You are truly a blessing to the court."
Fang Rongan said modestly: "Your Excellency, I am too kind to praise you. I am just a warrior and cannot bear such a high reputation."
The two of them exchanged greetings, and after some pleasantries, Wu Qing felt that the corners of his mouth were almost frozen from smiling.
[Fang Rongan! Stop talking! I really can’t take it anymore! ]
[Don’t you hate socializing?! Stop! Stop!]
Fang Rong'an was rarely stunned for a moment, as if he was hit by something.
He quickly lowered his eyes, using subtle movements to conceal the strange look that flashed across his eyes.
At this moment, not far from the venue, Aunt Xiwen was walking slowly towards this side, holding the hand of a little girl.
When they reached the edge of the venue, Xiwen lowered her head, whispered a few words to the little girl, then turned and left, leaving the little girl standing there alone.
Catching sight of the familiar white skirt, the second prince's eyes lit up and he shouted loudly: "Xi Yan! Over here!"
This shout finally interrupted the conversation between Fang Rongan and Wu Qing. Wu Qing let out a long sigh and quickly lowered his mouth.
Princess Xiyan raised her head and trotted over.
When they were about to reach their destination, Princess Xiyan braked the car in time, adjusted her skirt neatly, and then greeted everyone sweetly.
"Hello, eldest brother, hello, second brother!" Her voice was clear, pleasant and extremely childlike.
The eldest prince and the second prince both smiled.
They had previously asked the Queen to allow Princess Xiyan to attend class together.
Although they couldn't attend scripture classes together, Xiyan was finally able to accompany them in classes like physical education.
"Xiyan meets Commander Fang and says hello to Commander Fang." Xiyan lifted her skirt and bowed to Fang Rongan.
Fang Rong'an hummed, and his originally serious expression softened a little.
Finally, Princess Xiyan finally turned her attention to Concubine Ji.
She turned around and wanted to act very frightened according to the original plan she had discussed with Aunt Xiwen.
Bad women are not easy to deal with, so she needs to be careful.
However, the moment Princess Xiyan turned around, she saw Wu Qing's fiery gaze first.
Wu Qing covered his mouth, suppressing the scream in his throat.
[Aaaaaa——She's so cute! How can there be such a cute baby girl! She's completely different from those two idiots, Big Bear and Little Bear! ]
[Sweet smile, pleasant voice, and well-mannered manners. She was the epitome of the princes.]
[Ah! I really want to pinch Xi Yan Tuan Ba Tuan Ba into small glutinous rice dumplings and eat them in one bite. Little angel, let auntie kiss you, mua~]
“…”
Under Wu Qing's fierce gaze, Princess Xiyan sniffed and unconsciously took a step back.
Her pretended horror became real.
Fang Rongan and the eldest prince, who were able to hear Wu Qing's inner thoughts, also fell silent.
Lady Ji... is so crazy. Is this her true face?
