I was flattered after crossing

Uncle Li was silent for a moment, then asked, "What do you think, Princess?"

I looked at him seriously and said, "If you believe me, let your children read more and gain more knowledge. People always pick on the weak. To put it bluntly, in this world, the only person we can trust is ourselves, right?" After saying that, I looked at Uncle Li steadily, hoping that he could understand my intentions.

After hearing this, Uncle Li's eyes flashed with hesitation, but he still nodded: "Princess, you are absolutely right!"

I smiled and continued, "Okay, if you don't object to what I said, I believe your daughter will find a good man in the future and will be able to support each other throughout her life."

"These views may be considered heretical in this era, but you should think carefully about the logic behind them." He said to Uncle Li with a smile.

Uncle Li nodded repeatedly, and then he said to me gratefully: "Thank you, Princess, for your advice!"

I quickly waved my hands and replied with a smile: "Hey, why should I thank you for giving advice to my own child?"

At this moment, a powerful shout suddenly came from outside the door: "Princess, Princess~"

As soon as I heard it, I knew it was Seventeen. So I turned my head and shouted towards the door: "I'm here ~ Seventeen ~ Tailor's room!"

As soon as I finished speaking, Seventeen ran in quickly with a sad look on his face.

"What's the matter?" I asked.

"The prince asked you to return home as soon as possible!" It was rare to see Seventeen looking so nervous. My sixth sense told me that something had happened.

After putting down the cloth in my hand and saying hello to Uncle Li, I followed Seventeen and rode back home at full speed.

Along the way, I was thinking about what had happened that could have made Xiao Zhengxuan so anxious to find me back home... Could it be that Xu Ruoli is back again?

That's impossible... I heard that she had already followed her husband back to the northwest before the New Year...

Is there another bad love relationship? Then I'll really be a "breakup master".

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but say to myself: "Hey, having such a man is really troublesome..."

Arriving at the palace, I went straight to the study. As soon as I entered the study, I looked around and didn't see anyone else. So, I asked Xiao Zhengxuan curiously: "Hmm? Where are the people?"

At this time, Xiao Zhengxuan was concentrating on writing something on the desk. When he heard my voice, he turned around and took a look, then replied, "Who is it?"

As I untied my cloak, I looked at him in confusion and asked, "You called me back in a hurry, didn't you want me to help you deal with the bad love affair?"

"Hahahaha, Princess, what you said is the only thing that makes me happy today?" Xiao Zhengxuan put down his pen and looked at me with a smile.

"Huh? What's wrong? Tell me what's making you unhappy and make me happy~" I said with a smile.

Hearing this, he stretched out his hand and pinched my face, and said with a smile: "It seems that no matter what the problem is, it can be easily solved when it comes to you."

Seeing his sad expression, I couldn't joke anymore. This was really a problem...

"What's wrong? What happened?" I asked worriedly.

Xiao Zhengxuan turned his head to look at the papers on the table, then looked at me and said, "Recently, the Lingnan border has often been disturbed by neighboring countries, which has now affected the lives of the people living on the border. This morning, my father asked me to lead the troops to quell the rebellion."

I continued his words: "Ah? Go ahead, isn't that what you should do?"

I saw a look of surprise on her already lost face as she looked at me.

"Could it be that their country is particularly strong?" I speculated.

Xiao Zhengxuan shook his head and said seriously, "This country is called Xiliang. It is not very powerful, but it always harasses our border from time to time. They know that we will not easily start a war, so they will push their feet further. This time, it directly affected the lives of the people living on the border, so my father sent me to quell the rebellion."

I breathed a sigh of relief and said excitedly, "Then we are not afraid anymore, let's go and kill him!"

After hearing what I said, Xiao Zhengxuan burst out laughing, shook his head and said helplessly: "The princess is really..."

What's wrong? You don't want to go?" I looked at him curiously.

Xiao Zhengxuan said angrily: "My country and my people are being harassed by others. I have fought on the battlefield for many years, so how can I not go?"

"Yes, in that case, let's go..." I asked in confusion.

"It will take at least three months, and at most a year. It's hard to say what will happen in the future..." After Xiao Zhengxuan finished speaking, he lowered his head, as if thinking about something.

"Then don't worry about it. I'll be fine in the palace and make sure all our businesses grow bigger and stronger! You'll be rich when you come back!" I promised, patting my chest.

“You don’t have to risk your life. I am also a wealthy man. I am just afraid… I am afraid…” As he said this, he pinched my shoulders with both hands, and his eyes revealed a hint of worry and fear.

As I watched his expression gradually change from ferocious to gentle, I understood what he was afraid of.

"In ancient times, we were not allowed to bring family members to war. But, you are a prince here. Father should not be afraid that you will establish yourself as king in Lingnan with your princess, right?" I looked at him with a grin.

Xiao Zhengxuan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly looked at me with wide eyes and said, "Princess! You agree!"

"Hmm~ If you had just said it directly, I would have agreed earlier..." I rolled my eyes.

"When do we leave?" I asked immediately.

Xiao Zhengxuan smiled happily and said, "Three days later."

"Ah? So fast! Then I have to write a plan quickly and have Leilei and Xianger strictly implement it." I was about to get up and said to Xiao Zhengxuan, "Get out of the way, go over there."

Xiao Zhengxuan sat aside obediently, watching me write down my future plans quietly, muttering, "Xiang'er, aren't you taking it with you?"

"No, she is in charge of the facial mask shop, and Leilei is in charge of the silk shop." I answered while writing.

"Then who serves you on weekdays?" Xiao Zhengxuan asked again.

"Do you think I need someone to serve me? I'm like a fool, waiting for others to dress me." I replied helplessly.

Then, I looked at Cui beside me and said, "Cui'er, just follow me. As long as my life can be saved, that's enough." After saying this, I looked up at Xiao Zhengxuan with a smile on my face.

However, Xiao Zhengxuan responded unyieldingly: "Can't I protect the princess?" There was a hint of coquettishness in his tone...

I couldn't help but laugh and cry, thinking how could this guy be so jealous? So I shook my head helplessly, continued to focus on the plan in my hand, and said to her with a smile: "Then I will still have to tie me to my belt and take me with me wherever I go, okay?"
