Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

Changsun Wuji left with some unspeakable emotions.

And Old Lady Dugu did not actually go to the palace to discuss with Empress Changsun about changing the teacher for her granddaughter.

But it wasn't that she didn't want to, but that Bao'er had her own principles in life: "Grandma, how could you go to the Queen to complain about Master Huang? The Master is such a good person, and he often tells me about the interesting things that happened to His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu in the academy."

"I think you're happy to be kept in the hall because people told you stories about His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu." As the carriage swayed, carrying the grandparents and grandchildren on their way home, inside the carriage, Madam Dugu hugged her little granddaughter who was still greedily eating, and couldn't help but chuckled and said, "Bao'er, do you like the Prince of Chu that much?"

"I like it!" Dugu Baoer admitted generously upon hearing this: "That's His Royal Highness the King of Chu. In Chang'an, no, in the whole world, is there anyone more majestic than His Royal Highness the King of Chu?"

"Speaking of majesty... have you forgotten His Majesty?" Seeing that her granddaughter gave such a direct reason, Old Lady Dugu deliberately joked, "Back then, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was chased all over the palace by His Majesty..."

"Grandma, you don't understand." Bao'er shook his head when he heard this: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu can make His Majesty chase him all over the palace, which is something worth showing off.

As for His Majesty, he is already a grown man, but he is still arguing with a child like the Prince of Chu. He is really ignorant. "

"Ah?" Old Madam Dugu now had an illusion: if her granddaughter had been born a few years earlier... she would have gotten along well with the King of Chu.

"Grandma," just as Madam Dugu was still lost in thought, Dugu Baoer had already begun to tell her grandmother about her little worries: "Why haven't I met His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu before? Alas... It's also my fault that I didn't enter the academy earlier and get to know Sizi.

But grandmother, do you think there is a possibility that when His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu left Chang'an, did he realize that I would enter the palace soon?

Hmm... Is His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu's move out of consideration of 'kings not meeting kings', or is he deliberately avoiding me?" Dugu Baoer said this, immediately put down the snacks in her hand, and then she pinched her chin with her greasy little hands and thought seriously: "Hmm... It should be the latter..."

“Bao’er…” Old Madam Dugu, who had long been accustomed to her granddaughter’s occasional “confusion and nonsense”, now inexplicably felt a headache: “Forget it… It’s all Grandmother’s fault…”

"Grandma, what's wrong with you?" Hearing what her grandmother said, Dugu Baoer couldn't help but feel surprised: "Also, I'm just analyzing it rationally..."

"Then grandma really misunderstood you..." Old Madam Dugu looked at her granddaughter, who was outstanding in all aspects except for her lack of intelligence. She thought for a moment and said, "The Emperor is interested in marrying into our family. As for His Majesty and the Empress—"

"I don't want it," Dugu Bao'er shook his head after hearing this: "Grandma, Bao'er's ambitions are very ambitious!"

"How far is it?" Old Madam Dugu seemed to know what her grandson wanted to say next, but she still cooperated patiently.

"I want to learn horsemanship and find the best Arabian horse, then I will take Sizi to Qiongzhou!" Dugu Baoer raised his fist and said, "This is Sizi's long-cherished wish, I must help her achieve it."

"How dare you..." Facing such a "noble" granddaughter, Madam Dugu didn't know what to say: "You kidnapped Princess Jinyang out of the palace, aren't you afraid that His Majesty will send the guards to arrest you?"

"Grandmother, you don't understand this." Dugu Bao'er looked like a veteran who had been walking in the martial arts world for many years. She first showed a "master-like smile" without emotion, then raised her eyebrows confidently, and then said: "As long as Sizi and I can leave Chang'an, all problems will be solved - you know, His Royal Highness the King of Chu has arranged many skilled guards around Sizi."

"How dare you say that." Upon hearing this, Madam Dugu tapped her granddaughter's forehead with her finger and said, "You were the only one who had a kind heart. Three little girls and a cat went to teach the King of Han a lesson. How could the little cat be able to swell the King of Han's toes?"

“Grandma…” Dugu Baoer immediately said with a guilty conscience: “I told you that Mimi Hero was chasing the King of Han, and the King of Han fell down in panic, so he hurt his toe…

Grandmother, if you continue to doubt me like this, I will be really sad - at that time in Taiji Hall, even His Majesty did not doubt me!"

“Alas…” Madam Dugu was at her wit’s end, “Silly Bao’er… Your Majesty, is there any need to doubt it… Who else could have done such a thing except a little girl like you who doesn’t know the seriousness of the matter?

To be honest, it's a relief that Princess Jinyang and the young lady from the Cui family are so loyal that they speak up for you.

That’s why His Majesty didn’t pursue the matter further…” Old Madam Dugu said this, thought about it, and still didn’t tell the truth: The Dugu family is now without a successor, and His Majesty Li II will naturally not embarrass Dugu Baoer, not to mention that Baoer was helping Sizi at the time.

"Your Majesty should be afraid of His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu." It must be said that Dugu Bao'er is also a little genius. The little girl was sitting cross-legged in the carriage, moving her numb toes while crossing her arms over her chest. She analyzed to her grandmother in a serious manner: "As everyone knows, I am Sizi's closest friend, and Sizi is His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu's most beloved sister. So if something happens to me, how could His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu just sit back and watch?"

"Wonderful." Old Madam Dugu has now made up her mind: her granddaughter must not marry into the royal family no matter what - there is no such thing as "scheming" in this child.

Can……

Without the protection of the royal family, what will Baoer do after a hundred years...

Old Madam Dugu fell into a state of sadness for a moment.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Did Bao'er make you angry?" Dugu Bao'er saw that her grandmother didn't say anything, and suddenly she felt a little flustered: "Grandma..."

"I--" Seeing her grandson like this, old lady Dugu was about to speak to comfort him.

As a result, the next moment...

"Bang..." The carriage that was running smoothly suddenly stopped for no reason.

"Madam..." The coachman in charge of driving the carriage was an old man who followed Dugu Huai'en in the past. At this moment, this battle-hardened family general spoke with an inexplicable tension and excitement in his tone: "You...you look at this..."

"What's wrong?" Upon hearing this, Madam Dugu patted Dugu Baoer on the shoulder, signaling him to stay in the carriage obediently, and then she lifted the curtain.

But the next moment, she was also stunned.

In the city of Chang'an, which was about to go under curfew, both sides of the Zhuque Street, which should have been bustling with people, were filled with people rushing home. In the middle of the street, there was a team of hundreds of black knights. The leader of them immediately dismounted after seeing old lady Dugu get off the carriage.

Afterwards, he walked quickly to the old lady, bowed in public, and handed a jade plaque engraved with "Chu Wang Li Kuanyou" to the old lady. Then, the man in black said loudly in front of thousands of people on the long street: "From today on, the noble lady of the Dugu family, Miss Dugu Baoer, is the sworn sister of Chu Wang Li Kuan. Anyone who dares to disrespect her in the future will be like declaring war on the King of Chu!"

Finally, the man in black saw that Madam Dugu was still in a daze, so he had an idea, and soon someone led out a top-grade Arabian horse with hair as colorful as pearls from the team.

On the saddle of this Arabian horse hangs a small scimitar inlaid with various precious gems. At this moment, in the afterglow of the setting sun, it emits a dazzling brilliance.

"This is the gift from His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu to his adopted sister. Please accept it, old lady." After the man in black said this, he took his leave without waiting for old lady Dugu to reply.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was very busy - he had already informed his eldest brother and asked him to help him beat up his two naughty younger brothers, the fifth and sixth brothers. After that, he had to tell Sizi about it to prevent his sister from hearing about it from other people and getting jealous.

Then, with the sound of horse hooves, the hundreds of men in black quickly disappeared from everyone's sight...

Old Madam Dugu, who had only come to her senses at this moment, looked at the receding figures of the group of knights. Two hot and turbid tears suddenly rose in her old eyes and slid silently down her old face.

Wanniang... did you see it...

The grandson you love the most is now the one who looks most like you.
