"Good luck to little grandpa!"

"How did you come!"

"I just finished my morning class and wanted to see what Grandpa is busy with!" Cheng Youning glanced at the 'Princess Zhuoyang' and the little maid Ling'er in the room, and asked Wan Lianxing: "Grandpa, why are they here? The wedding escort group in the post station was looking for them like crazy yesterday."

"Did you go to the post station to look for Princess Zhuoyang yesterday?"

"My grandson went to Prince Pang's mansion yesterday and passed by the post station, so he went in to take a look."

"You think I've never been out of the palace, right? How can I get from the palace to Prince Pang's mansion without passing by the post station?"

Cheng Youning was not panicked when he saw that his lie was exposed, because his grandfather had been in a good mood in the past two days and would not punish him severely. "Grandfather, Princess Zhuoyang has not fulfilled her promise to me last time, so I went to the post station to check."

As he spoke, Cheng Youning turned his head and looked at the veiled Princess Zhuoyang, who had drooping eyebrows. "Zhuoyang, have you brought the benefits you promised this prince?"

Upon hearing this, Princess Zhuoyang stood up, walked to Cheng Youning's side, and knelt down in front of Cheng Youning.

"Hey! Why are you kneeling before me? You are the princess of Dalang and I am the prince of Fengqi. There is no need for such a great ceremony between you and me."

Cheng Youning stretched out his hand to help Princess Zhuoyang up, but Princess Zhuoyang didn't know how to behave and hugged Cheng Youning's thigh and started crying.

"If you don't want to give me any benefits, just say so. There's no need to cry. This prince doesn't need the things you promised. Your headgear is enough." Cheng Youning had never been hugged by someone and cried, so he was a little bit at a loss. "Get up, I don't want the things you promised me!"

"Your Highness..."

Hmm? Such a familiar voice!

Cheng Youning pulled off the veil of the woman who was hugging his thigh. Cheng Youning couldn't believe that this person with exquisite makeup was not Princess Zhuoyang. "Hei Bajiao, why do you look like Princess Zhuoyang!"

"Your Highness, please ask the Emperor not to send me to the southern Yan Kingdom for marriage. I only want to serve His Highness the Crown Prince in my life."

"Hei Bajiao, what are you talking about? You've confused this prince!" Cheng Youning looked at Wan Lianxing who was sitting there in a dignified manner and asked, "Grandpa, what's going on with Hei Bajiao? How can the marriage be related to her?"

Wan Lianxing slowly waved the fan in his hand, with a brighter smile on his face. He answered the question irrelevantly: "When Bajiao didn't say anything, did you also mistake her for Princess Zhuoyang?"

Cheng Youning nodded, "I didn't realize before that she looks a bit like Zhuoyang. Why did grandpa let Hei Bajiao play Zhuoyang? Where is Zhuoyang? Where is she? She still owes her grandson some favors."

Hei Bajiao hugged Cheng Youning's legs and shook them. This prince was really generous. She was about to be married to the Nanyan Kingdom, but their prince was still thinking about the benefits. "Prince, I don't want to marry on behalf of Princess Zhuoyang. I just want to serve you."

Marrying in a surrogate marriage, Cheng Youning frowned after a brief analysis, "Stand up and talk, it's Zhuoyang who is getting married, not you, why are you marrying in a surrogate marriage. Also, what are you wearing, don't dress like this in the future." Cheng Youning angrily pulled off the gold hairpins on Bajiao's head, throwing one on the ground after pulling one off, until he was satisfied with all the headdresses on Bajiao's head, he ordered: "Go back to the Prince's Mansion first, and you are not allowed to leave the Prince's Mansion without the permission of this prince."

Bajiao burst into laughter when she heard this. She got up from the ground and nodded repeatedly to Cheng Youning: "I know I was wrong. I will go back to the Prince's Mansion now."

I thought I had escaped, but at this moment, Wan Lianxing said in a neither light nor heavy voice: "Stop!"

Bajiao's body trembled slightly as his back turned towards Wan Lianxing.

"Bajiao, have you forgotten what I told you yesterday?"

"I dare not. I have not forgotten. I am afraid that I cannot complete the important task you have entrusted to me. I beg Your Majesty to take back your order and not let me marry in stead! I just want to stay in the Prince's Mansion and take care of the Prince for the rest of my life." She did not agree yesterday. It was Wan Lianxing's golden words, and she did not dare to disobey Wan Lianxing. Today, with her master here, she is a little bolder.

"If you disobey my order, your entire clan will be executed!"

Although Bajiao unilaterally cut off ties with her family, she did not want the entire Li family to be exterminated because of her. "Your Majesty, I sold myself to be the prince's maid, and I don't want to leave him." Being a substitute bride is terrible, and marrying into a foreign palace. If people knew she was an imposter, her head would be removed on the spot, no room for negotiation!

"Grandpa, if you have anything to say, you can tell your grandson. It's hard for Bajiao to do anything." Cheng Youning thought that he had made some mistakes recently and his grandpa was punishing him in various ways.

"You are a good master, and you have learned to stand up for your servants. But grandson, there are some things that you are not in a position to make decisions on yet. You should go back to Ningxin Palace and study."

"My grandson naturally wants to go to school, but Bajiao is my grandson's person. Only my grandson can decide whether she stays or goes. Grandfather should not interfere in the affairs of the servants in the Prince's Mansion."

"You haven't grown up yet, so I can't interfere in your affairs. Go back and study. Finish your studies before you come and argue with me."

Cheng Youning patted Bajiao's shoulder and said, "It's okay, don't be afraid. I'll come back to talk to Grandpa after I finish my studies."

Bajiao grabbed Cheng Youning's hand and said, "Prince, you must hurry up and save me. In three days, I will be marrying with the team that is heading to the marriage alliance!"

"Marry that old man, the Southern Emperor? This prince agrees. Don't cry. I will definitely be able to convince my grandfather. You will serve me from now on. No one can snatch you from this prince."

After saying this, Cheng Youning hurried off to class again. He respected his teachers and didn't dare to keep his teacher Huang Chenming waiting for long.

He hurried back to the school just in time.

As soon as Cheng Youning sat on the chair, Huang Chenming gave Cheng Youning a question: "Don't be picky about food, eat just enough, don't overeat! Students, tell me what this means!"

Cheng Youning was stunned. He learned this when he was four years old. Why did the teacher test him on this today? "It means that you should not be picky when eating. You should know when to stop and not eat too much." Cheng Youning was smart. He guessed that he had dropped his chopsticks when eating just now, and the teacher told him about it. So he quickly stood up and admitted his mistake: "I know I was wrong. I will not be picky about food and drink in the future. Please punish me, teacher."

This person cannot be beaten, scolded, or punished, but Huang Chenming does not want to indulge him, "Students, please stand and listen!"

This was not the first time he was punished by standing, but it was the first time since he became the crown prince. Cheng Youning did not dare to object and could only stand there obediently and finish listening to the rest of the class.
