"Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion."

Lan Wangshu smiled, but he didn't look like everything was alright. Lan Luochen frowned, feeling very incompetent. His sister didn't want him to be unable to do anything and have to rely on her for a bright future.

"elder sister."

Lan Wangshu raised his hand to interrupt what Lan Luochen was about to say. He didn't know what was wrong with this kid. He always liked to take all the blame on himself.

"Don't think too much. It has nothing to do with you. It's directed at me. Our family doesn't need to be low-key anymore. We can't be pushed to the forefront for no reason. Enjoy what you should enjoy. Don't have any psychological burden. Study with peace of mind and walk your own path."

Lan Luochen's eyes flickered and he couldn't see clearly what was in them, so he could only nod. Zhou Xingnan was really anxious now.

"Boss, you have to make plans early. The women in the harem are not easy to deal with. Although you have a high status, but, that is someone favored by His Majesty, there is no guarantee that someone will not target you."

"Don't worry. They will pay attention to me, but they won't do anything to me. I'm just a county lady. I haven't entered the palace yet. They won't be that stupid. Even if there is one stupid person, the whole family is stupid. No one will challenge Your Majesty openly."

"If you encounter someone who dares to attack you, come to me. I still have a few friends in Kyoto."

Lan Wangshu reached out and patted Zhou Xingnan on the shoulder, nodding seriously. Zhou Xingnan straightened his chest even more after receiving her affirmation.

"I will talk to my eldest brother. If there is really no other way, we will ask my eldest uncle for help. No one dares to touch the adopted daughter of General Zhennan. With my eldest brother's ability, I'm sure she will be safe."

"It's too early. Don't worry too much. I have my own plans. It's not set in stone. What he likes is not me as a person, but my ability."

Lan Duoduo blinked and quickly understood what she meant. He broke the somewhat tense atmosphere with an innocent smile.

"Don't worry, my sister has already made a plan. We just need to take care of ourselves and not cause any trouble."

"Wangshu, my uncle is useless."

Lan Qingyu felt a little frustrated. Over the years, he and his sister had grown up well without his protection, and it seemed unnecessary for him to come back.

"How could you say that, uncle? You have always cared for us siblings silently, and we know that."

Lan Wangshu's words made Lan Qingyu's eyes turn red all of a sudden. The more sensible she was, the more ashamed he felt. She was his mother, so how could she treat his eldest brother's family like that?

It was because of his education that he knew etiquette and shame, and was ashamed to face the siblings from the eldest branch of the Lan family.

Lan Qingyu couldn't say a word. She suppressed her emotions, nodded heavily, and left the Lan family.

Zhou Xingnan also went back to the old Lan's house to rest. He planned to return to the county town tomorrow and then communicate with his eldest brother. Lan Wangshu himself has abilities, but sometimes abilities are insignificant in the face of power.

He had seen too many people who had passed the imperial examination and come before the emperor, but were ruthlessly crushed by the aristocratic families. Each of them had a very deep family background, and they looked like they had their own character, but in fact they were all man-eating monsters.

Early the next morning, Zhou Xingnan said goodbye and asked Lan Wangshu if he had anything to send to the front line. It happened that he wanted to send a letter to Mo Yici.

Lan Wangshu thought about it and actually thought of some things. He prepared a box of matches and medical tape. These things were not particularly eye-catching. After thinking about it, he stuffed some candies in them. These things could provide energy, and buying a box was not too expensive.

Zhou Xingnan watched Lan Wangshu busying himself back and forth, putting the boxes on the carriage one by one, and he finally realized that something was wrong.

"Boss, you are using too much strength."

He looked at Lan Wangshu as if he had seen a ghost, his round eyes gazing up and down at the slender girl.

"You may not believe it, but I suddenly have supernatural powers, just like my Xiaoyan. Maybe it's inherited from my ancestors, but I just awakened when I grew up."

Zhou Xingnan's face was wrinkled. Who could believe such words? But he couldn't help but believe it given the situation before him. There was really no better reason to explain this situation.

He swore that if it were in Kyoto, countless storytellers would write hundreds of versions to promote this matter.

"Boss, you are quite low-key."

"So, don't worry about me. With my strength, it's not easy to move me. Don't worry, go back and study hard. Don't forget what you said. A man should stick to his word."

Zhou Xingnan had a bitter face. If he had known this would happen, he would not have raised his hand and studied hard. He would never make promises casually again. But just because he said something wrong to save face, Lan Wangshu held on to him and refused to let go.

"Boss, can I try harder another day? It's the New Year, and I want to eat, drink and have fun. You see, Lan Luochen hasn't been studying all the time, and we are still growing."
