Every time I wear it quickly, there are always big guys giving it away.

What comes into view is the calm Linhuai River, with stars reflected on the wide river surface.

Chen Jia and the Regent walked side by side, and the two walked along the river bank for a distance.

Chen Jia pounded her legs unconsciously. Seeing this, the Regent looked around and led her to sit on a big rock.

The attendant next to him was very considerate and wiped the big stone with a clean cloth in advance. After His Majesty sat on the stone calmly, the attendant quietly retreated.

"Your Majesty, are you tired?" The Regent said with concern, "Your Majesty is a noble person. You have been sitting in the carriage for a long time and walked such a long distance. You must be exhausted physically and mentally..."

The Regent had no idea how harsh and merciless he had been to his soldiers.

If the soldiers were so delicate, they would have been thrown into a training camp to build up their physical strength and endurance!

But at this moment, the one in front of him was the queen of the Blue Bird Kingdom who was above everyone else. Despite her noble status, she was still a young girl, delicate and frail, and had lived in the deep palace for a long time.

Can the Regent equate her with the soldiers under his command?

Of course not!

This person was so considerate that he even made excuses for her, taking her face and self-esteem into consideration.

“Uncle, you really are—” Chen Jia sighed and was suddenly at a loss for words.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty——"

An attendant who had disappeared halfway appeared at the right time. What was striking was that he was carrying a straw bundle almost full of candied haws on his shoulders, and he knelt down to salute.

Chen Jia asked him to stand up, and looked at the conspicuous candied haws with a curious look, "Did you go to buy candied haws just now?"

"Your Majesty, I was indeed ordered to buy candied haws just now." Fuyun left halfway because he received an order from the Regent to buy some new things for His Majesty.

Ming He was the servant who had just wiped the stone for the lady.

Both of them have followed the Regent since childhood and are very loyal.

Fuyun placed the bundle of grass on his shoulder upright on the ground, and the Regent asked Chen Jia to carry it.

Chen Jia pointed at a bunch of them at random, and the Regent took them without saying a word and handed them to the Queen, "Your Majesty, please enjoy."

Chen Jia didn't bother to be polite with him and directly reached out to take the candied haws.

The string of candied haws in front of you is not made of hawthorn, but several kinds of fruits strung on bamboo sticks and coated with syrup that has dried and hardened.

She looked at it curiously for a few times, and without hesitation, she opened her mouth and bit off half of the candied haws.

Mm, it’s sour with a hint of sweet, crunchy and makes your mouth water.

This candied haws is made to a very high standard!

"Uncle, it's really sweet. Do you want to try it?" Chen Jia finished eating a whole sweet and crispy candied haws, hoping that the regent who had been waiting for her feedback could also try it. But after asking the question, she realized, "Oh - you don't eat sweet -"

"It's okay," the regent lowered his eyes and smiled happily, "Your Majesty can think of me, I am already very happy..."

He once again realized the difference between the female monarch and the old monarch.

To be fair, the old monarch knew how to use people and was a wise monarch with great strategies and strategies.

No matter how wise a monarch is, he will not allow others to snore beside his bed.

Especially when the old monarch is in his twilight years and has only a young princess, he will inevitably be afraid of the regent who is too powerful.

Therefore, the old monarch worked hard and, in order to support the princess to ascend the throne, he specially promoted three tutors to check and balance him.

Unfortunately, the old monarch underestimated the regent.

If the queen is still the cowardly princess who is unable to shoulder the responsibility...

The Regent thought that he wouldn't mind taking his place.

After all, the world's capable people get the job, so why can't he?

The regent, who was a rebellious person, never thought that this was a treasonous idea.

Even at the beginning, he was not so respectful to the queen.

The lady was so kind and had no hostility towards him.

The Regent reflected on the past for a rare moment, and his conscience ached a little, so he sighed in his heart.

Well, since the queen is interested in government affairs, he will do his best to assist her and train her to become a wise ruler!

Chen Jia didn't know yet that her unnecessary question would lay the groundwork for a sudden increase in her schoolwork in the future.

At this moment, she was still happily eating candied haws, staring at the river without blinking.

Several large ships were approaching from afar, and melodious sounds of stringed instruments floated out from the cabins, faintly mixed with the chirping of birds.

The people on the boat should be very happy.

The regent noticed Ming He's hidden gesture and said softly, "Your Majesty, I will be back soon."

Chen Jia looked back at the Regent and said seriously, "Uncle, please come back soon. I'll be waiting for you here."

The Regent nodded. He did not leave far and left Fuyun to protect the queen.

Even in the dark, there are still a group of secret guards waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Therefore, the Regent was not worried about the personal safety of the Queen.

The big ships were moving slowly on the river, not very fast. Chen Jia waited for a while and realized that the ship would not arrive that fast. She ate a candied haws while looking around.

In the distance, a child slurping his saliva immediately attracted Chen Jia's attention.

The child looked no more than four or five years old, with two bulging cloth bags on his head and wearing a clean, starched gray suit.

He squatted on the ground, his eyes big and bright, staring at the bundle of grass stuck in the ground, looking so eagerly that he could almost set the bundle of grass on fire.

Once the saliva formed strings, he would raise his sleeve to wipe them off without even looking at them. His movements were quick and decisive, as if he had done it countless times before.

"Kid, come here--" Chen Jia hooked her finger at him. The kid was really straightforward. Upon hearing the call, he immediately stood up and ran over.

"Sir, did you call me?" The child was not fat and had an innocent smile. He ran to stand about five or six meters in front of Chen Jia.

As soon as His Majesty called for someone, Fuyun had already stood quietly beside His Majesty, fully alert.

Chen Jia took a string of candied haws from the straw bundle and shook it left and right in front of the child.

The child was also interesting. His two black eyes followed the movement of the candied haws and performed a set of eye exercises. Chen Jia then gave him the candied haws and said, "Here, this is for you."

"Is what you said true?" The child wiped his saliva again and asked in disbelief.

After seeing Chen Jia nod affirmatively, the child took a few steps, took the candied haws and quickly backed away.

His little face flushed, "Thank you, my dear, thank you, my dear..."

"Go back quickly. It's so late. Your family must be worried." Chen Jia asked the child to go back.

"Yes, my lord!"

The child held the candied haws and ran away, skipping and jumping.

After the little episode, the pleasure boat on the river gradually came closer. On the bow sat a beautiful girl with two or three elegant flowers pinned in her delicate bun.

She held the pipa, plucked the strings with her white and tender fingers, and sang popular ditties with a soft voice in harmony with the beautiful music.

Passersby on the shore stopped in unison and listened to the girl's beautiful singing.
