Chu Tianze took Bai Chuxiao and his party to visit several training grounds. With the King of Yan beside them, the imperial soldiers naturally did not dare to say anything. Seeing Bai Chuxiao's somewhat bored look, Chu Tianze could not help but shook his head and chuckled, so he took his people back to his tent.

Bai Chuxiao then said calmly, "Isn't the imperial army too weak?" The emperor must have known this, so he asked Chu Tianze to reorganize it.

Murong Xuan also nodded, "Not as good as the Northwest Army." He used to go back to Dingzhou in the northwest for a while at the end of the year, so he naturally knew the soldiers under his uncle.

Chu Tianze smiled faintly, "The border is bitterly cold and there are small wars from time to time. Soldiers who have been through hardships are naturally stronger."

After all, most of these soldiers outside the capital are here to collect military pay. If there is no war for many years, they will become useless sooner or later. However, Your Majesty certainly does not dare to send too many troops to the border. The sky is high and the land is far away. If there is a rebellion... it will be difficult to suppress it for a while...

Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows, "I'm afraid your efforts to rectify the situation will be in vain..."

"Xiao Xiao is right. I don't want to hide anything, but these people are not really convinced by me. They still think that I am an outsider..."

The king of Yan was not in the capital all year round, so how could they obey his orders?

"But the Imperial Guards are still pretty good. Cheng Song should not be underestimated."

Bai Chuxiao nodded, thinking of the middle-aged man she met last time. He must be someone His Majesty trusted so much.

Speak of the devil, here comes the devil. A guard suddenly comes in and reports that General Cheng wants to see him.

"I greet the prince," Cheng Song came in and clasped his fists.

"General Cheng, there is no need to be so polite."

However, he did not expect that there were two people sitting inside. "Why is Miss Bai here too?" Thinking of how this young lady talked and laughed freely in front of His Majesty last time, he suddenly felt that it was not so strange to see her here.

"General Cheng must know that I have been taught by my grandfather since I was a child, so it's not surprising that I am interested in these things," Bai Chuxiao smiled.

Cheng Song nodded. "I still vaguely remember the demeanor of General Murong in those days. I guess this is the second son of Murong?"

Upon hearing this, Murong Xuan stepped forward and saluted, "Yes, I am meeting General Cheng."

Cheng Song chuckled, "Second Master, you are too polite. I just happened to hear that the prince was in the camp, so I wanted to come over to exchange ideas on training. I wonder if His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is available."

Chu Tianze's face was calm, "Of course you can"

Seeing this, Bai Chuxiao stood up with a smile and said, "In that case, I won't bother you anymore." This is not good to hear, and Cheng Song may not really like her.

Chu Tianze nodded with a smile, "I'll come see you later."

Seeing that Murong Xuan also wanted to leave together, Chu Tianze said lightly, "Second Young Master, why don't you stay?" Since he is Xiaoxiao's second brother, he doesn't mind helping him out more. Knowing more about him will naturally be beneficial to him in the future.

Murong Xuan was a little hesitant. He had no official status, so it was not appropriate for him to stay here. "This..."

Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "I think General Cheng won't mind."

Cheng Song chuckled, "That's fine indeed. The Second Young Master must have learned a lot from General Murong. Why don't we exchange ideas?"

Seeing this, Murong Xuan no longer refused. He knew the painstaking efforts of the King of Yan, and he also knew that it was all because of Xiaoxiao that the King of Yan was willing to help him.

Emperor Wenxuan still decided to train the prince, and naturally would not watch him offend everyone, so he personally summoned Bai Linan and gave the decree to marry a concubine. Even if Bai Linan was dissatisfied, he had to accept it. When he came out of the palace, he was mocked and ridiculed by the old man Liu Jinhan, so he returned to the mansion with a furious face, wishing to drag Bai Chuwan out of bed and beat her up again.

Looking at Bai Chuxiao who had just returned from outside with a faint smile on her face, Bai Linan asked in a deep voice, "Wait, where have you been so early in the morning?"

"Do I have to report every detail to my father about where I go?" Bai Chuxiao looked at him calmly.

Since she had made up her mind to train the team, Bai Chuxiao didn't want to delay any longer, so she thought about coming back to write a training plan. However, she ran into the sick Bai Linan when she came back. She didn't even bother to deal with him, but he took advantage of her and started to control her.

Bai Linan's face was gloomy. "Is this the tone you use to talk to your father?"

"Father, what's the matter? If you're bored, why don't you go and prepare the dowry for my second sister yourself? I heard that His Majesty has personally spoken..."

"Humph, what do you want a dowry for a concubine? There are still a lot of rumors out there, so you better stay out of the house."

Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows and looked at him, "Oh? Let's not talk about the matter of my second sister for now. As for the matter about me, father must know who released it. Aunt Xie has ruined the reputation of the eldest lady in the mansion. I wonder how father plans to deal with it?"

"Don't play dumb here. It's normal for Xianglan to feel a little resentful because you forced her to pay back the money. She can't do this with her ability. I don't know when you have a grudge against His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi."

Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "Father is indeed wise. Then father, don't you plan to vent your anger for your daughter? The King of Qi doesn't like me, so he will naturally not let the Left Prime Minister's Mansion have an easy life. How do you plan to deal with the King of Qi?"

Bai Linan's eyes were slightly cold, "He is the royal prince. Your reckless words will sooner or later bring disaster to our Bai family."

Bai Chuxiao smiled, "Father, don't you think you want to kill your daughter to save yourself?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, you rebellious girl? When did your father want to kill you? I just told you to be careful with your words and actions. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have the King of Yan. Do you think the Wei family is easy to mess with?"

Bai Chuxiao felt a little bored. She was now a little confused about how the man in front of her got the position of left prime minister, so she said lightly, "Oh, I won't offend others unless they offend me. My father is kind to outsiders... Well, since there is nothing important, I will go back first."

Is this rebellious girl saying that she is a bully and afraid of the strong? Bai Linnan's face was grim. When he mentioned the Wei family, a cold light flashed in his eyes. Did he really think he was afraid...

However, Bai Chuwan was still very happy at the moment. Although she had lost some face this time, His Majesty's words were golden and no one could change them. Soon she would be able to marry the prince, and maybe even sit in "that" position in the future.

Xie personally brought the medicine and fed her mouthful by mouthful, her brows full of joy, "Wan'er, we are finally getting through all the hardships. With the prince's love for you, I wonder how that little bitch can act so arrogantly in the future."

Bai Chuwan was half lying on the bed, with a look of pride on her pale face, "Mom, don't worry, I will make Bai Chuxiao kneel respectfully in front of us in the future."

Mrs. Xie nodded, and a trace of worry appeared on her face again, "But right now the money is not enough... and you are going to marry into the Eastern Palace, so naturally as a mother, I have to prepare more dowry for you first. That bitch is really hateful..."

Bai Chuwan coughed a few times. This time she was beaten really hard. She had never suffered such hardship since she was a child. She fell ill after all this. "My uncles..."

Hearing these words, Xie's face immediately showed anger, "Don't mention them... a bunch of ungrateful wolves"
