Only then did Xianmo have time to reply to Fengguang, who was about to go crazy, "I always have to go to the battlefield."
"But you're still too young!"
“I’ve grown up.” He raised a hand and gestured to his chest. “And I guess the glory days only go so far.”
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm very tall, okay!"
He was right; she really was only that tall.
A casual smile, like a spring breeze melting a patch of snow, "Even if I'm wrong, Fengguang doesn't need to be so excited."
Her face flushed, and she remained silent for a long time. As the child grew older, he became more and more generous with his smiles. As a result, every time he smiled, she would be instantly captivated. She had told herself more than once that A-Mo was someone she had raised as her own younger brother... so it seemed like there was nothing wrong with secretly taking a few extra glances.
He won't find out anyway.
With that thought in mind, she stared at him openly and said, "You need to think this through. The battlefield is very cruel. Many, many people will die and many will be injured. Maybe... maybe you will be injured too."
"It's alright." Xianmo smiled faintly. "No matter how badly I'm injured, I will come back alive."
"You...sigh, I just can't do anything with you." Taking advantage of her ability to float, she could still easily pat his head. "I'll find a way to protect you."
He chuckled softly but didn't say anything.
Xianmo finally graduated from Lan Zhao's school and was given a month's vacation. When Xianrang heard about this, he felt that his son had grown up and it was time for him to have more life experiences.
So when they returned to Yihe Palace, whether they were in high spirits or in quiet contemplation, they were still somewhat taken aback by the rows of brightly dressed women standing in the palace.
"Lu Youde," Xianmo said, glancing at the eunuch standing to the side, "is Yihe Palace lacking palace maids?"
Lu Youde's face was somewhat unpleasant. He lowered his head and answered cautiously, "Your Highness, this is a girl who is knowledgeable about human affairs, bestowed upon Your Highness by His Majesty."
The phrase "understanding human affairs" instantly conveys the meaning of success. In ancient times, in wealthy families, when a young master reached the age of thirteen or fourteen, the elders would find him a concubine. If the concubine performed well, she could be promoted to a concubine, but becoming the principal wife was absolutely out of the question because her status was not high enough.
This is why, even though the Empress is "dead," Xianrang has not yet made Consort Yun the Empress.
Feng Guang understands, but Xian Mo doesn't. No one has ever explained to him what human affairs are, and he has always been focused on becoming stronger and mastering martial arts. He has never had any romantic thoughts, so to this day, he hasn't even had the sexual fantasies that teenagers usually have...
So he asked Lu Youde directly, "What does it mean to be knowledgeable about human affairs?"
Lu Youde's expression was as if he had a fly stuck in his throat, unable to swallow it or spit it out, leaving him in an awkward position.
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha..." Feng Guang burst into laughter, taking advantage of the fact that no one except Xian Mo could hear her, and she did not care about her ladylike image at all.
Xianmo disliked this situation that he couldn't control. He lowered his voice and whispered two words, "Scenery."
Feng Guang's laughter paused, because she inexplicably detected a threat in the sound of her voice.
