Yun Tao looked at Qian Yue with a pang of heartache.
The once pampered and spoiled princess has now lost a significant amount of weight.
Without a doubt, the princess must have overheard their conversation by accident, otherwise how could such a delicate and fragile princess have changed so much overnight?
Looking back, when the little princess couldn't bear the arduous horse stance training, she would always cry or even collapse, but now it's different—
Even when she's exhausted, she'll grit her teeth, stand up again, and keep going.
This tenacity and perseverance are completely different from before.
If it were in the past, Qian Yue might have already run to His Highness the Crown Prince and begged for comfort.
However, at this moment, Yun Tao couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow.
Fighting back tears, she gently said to Qian Yue, "Your Highness, do you know? His Highness the Crown Prince is here today too. Right now, he's peacefully sleeping and resting inside. The General might need to go to the Grand Tutor to ask him to help share some of the Crown Prince's duties, so that His Highness can have a little more free time. Therefore, if Your Highness goes to the General now and drags him to the training grounds, then the General won't be able to go see the Grand Tutor."
Upon hearing this, Qian Yue's eyes showed a hint of confusion, but when she heard that her brother was also there, she instantly became excited, and her eyes immediately brightened.
Immediately afterward, she lowered her voice and whispered, "Oh dear, brother is sleeping! Sister Yuntao, we must speak quietly, okay? We mustn't wake him up, so he can have a good night's sleep."
Then Qianyue lowered her head somewhat dejectedly, "I haven't seen my brother for several days. Sister Yuntao, is being the emperor very busy?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Tao was momentarily at a loss for words.
Just then, Yunxin walked over quickly, wearing a small red cloak.
"Your Highness, the General is waiting for you at the gate. There's no time to change, but thankfully, this outfit is neat and won't affect your going out. You just need to bring a cloak."
"Oh, Sister Yunxin, is Grandpa waiting for me at the gate? Where are we going?"
When Qian Yue heard that her maternal grandfather was waiting for her, she immediately let go of Yun Tao's sleeve, turned around and took Yun Xin's hand.
Yun Tao smiled helplessly.
Yunxin turned around and said, "Yuntao, you stay at the manor to take care of His Highness the Crown Prince. I'll go with the Princess."
Yun Tao nodded. Her martial arts, medical skills, and poison skills were not as good as Yun Xin's. Even if Yun Xin didn't say anything, she would still let Yun Xin accompany the princess.
Qian Yue, who was standing to the side, had already grabbed Yun Xin's hand and urged, "Sister Yun Xin, let's hurry up, or Grandpa will get impatient. Hmm, Sister Yun Xin hasn't told me where we're going yet? Should I tell my brother?"
Yunxin looked down at the little princess and said with a smile, "No need, Yuntao will tell His Highness when he wakes up. Hasn't Your Highness always wanted to go to the city gate? General, take Your Highness there today."
"Wow, Grandpa agreed to take me! Yay! Sister Yunxin, let's go quickly!" Qianyue skipped happily toward the gate of the mansion.
After practicing martial arts for a while, the little one's walking steps have indeed become much more steady.
Yunxin felt a pang of heartache when she saw Qianyue, who had lost a lot of weight.
If the Valley Master knew how much suffering Her Highness the Princess had endured, he would be heartbroken.
When Qianyue ran to the gate, a carriage was parked at the entrance of the mansion.
My maternal grandfather stood quietly by the carriage, waiting.
"Grandfather, I'm here." The voice arrived before the person.
After Qianyue stepped out of the gate with light steps, she couldn't wait to run towards Yunfu.
Seeing this, Yun's father hurriedly called out, "Slow down! Slow down! Be careful not to fall!"
Before he could finish speaking, Yun's father opened his arms and stepped forward to catch Qian Yue steadily.
Qianyue said with a big smile, "Don't worry, Grandfather, I know you and my uncles will catch me every time, so I won't fall."
"Good, good, good, our little Qianyue is the smartest and most clever." Father Yun nodded affectionately, then turned to look at Yun Xin standing to the side, signaling her to get ready to leave.
After receiving the instructions, Yunxin walked into the shadows and gently waved her hand, making a gesture that was almost imperceptible.
After everything was arranged, since Qian Yue was still young, Yun Xin accompanied her in a carriage, while Yun Zhentian rode a horse and led the way for them.
Sitting in the carriage, Qian Yue was full of curiosity. She would occasionally lift a corner of the curtain and peek through the narrow gap at her grandfather riding a horse not far away, her eyes filled with envy.
"Wow, Grandpa is so impressive! I wish I could ride a horse too, so I could ride alongside him!" Qianyue exclaimed to herself.
Hearing this, Yunxin, who was sitting next to him, smiled slightly and said nothing.
Originally, Yun's father wanted to take Qianyue horseback riding, but Yun's mother stopped him.
Qian Yue shouldn't be here right now. If someone with ulterior motives finds out, it could cause trouble again.
There were already spies in the crowd, and Yunxin has already informed the guards to deal with them.
I hope the journey goes smoothly.
Upon reaching the city gate, Yun's father handed in a package.
"Change Qianyue into this outfit and bring her out. I'll go to the city gate first, and you can bring her over later. The area has been cleared of people, but we still can't be careless," Yun's father instructed Yunxin through the curtain.
"Yunxin understands, General, please rest assured, Yunxin will take good care of the princess." Yunxin took the package and immediately promised.
Yun's father knew that Luo Luo was naturally loyal, and that she was also secretly protected by divine guards and dragon guards, which was why he dared to leave alone first.
When Yunxin brought Qianyue over, Yun's father had already given her instructions.
"Greetings, Master." Qian Yue came over and bowed respectfully.
This scene left Yun's father and Yun Xin completely bewildered.
Yun's father gestured to Yun Xin with his eyes: Did you teach her?
Yun Xin shook her head vigorously: "I'm innocent! I didn't teach the princess like that!"
Qian Yue looked up in confusion when her maternal grandfather ignored her, only to see him staring at her with a puzzled expression.
"Where did Qianyue learn it?" Yun's father waved for the general beside him to step back, then picked up Qianyue and asked with a smile.
Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Qianyue obediently let her maternal grandfather hold her.
Understanding her grandfather's words, she immediately replied, "Qianyue cannot reveal her identity."
Upon hearing this, Yunxin and her father understood.
Oh, what a precocious child.
"Qianyue, don't worry. Your grandfather has already cleared out everyone around you. You don't need to pretend to be someone else," your grandfather assured Qianyue.
Upon hearing this, Qian Yue's eyes immediately lit up.
"Thank you, Grandfather. Wow, Grandfather, this place is so bustling!" Qian Yue tilted her head and looked down from the city wall.
Yunxin, who was standing next to Qianyue, also looked over. The capital city has never lacked prosperity.
