After the morning court session ended, Chu Junze hurried back to Yaoguang Palace.

At this moment, Su Qianqian was holding Sanbao and burping him. She looked at the little cutie in her arms with tenderness in her eyes: "Sanbao, I am your mother, give your mother a kiss!"

As she said this, she kissed Sanbao's chubby, soft and tender cheek, and the little guy waved his hands happily.

Seeing this, Chu Junze quickly stepped forward, took Dabao from Zhishu, walked in front of them, and coaxed them gently.

"The emperor is very busy, but he still rushes back to see his children." Su Qianqian smiled slightly.

Chu Junze looked at her with deep affection in his eyes, "No matter how busy I am, I can't miss the growth of my child. I also want to spend more time with you and your child."

At this time, Nanny Geng came in and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to feed the eldest prince."

Chu Junze carefully handed Dabao to Madam Geng, then took Su Qianqian's hand and walked to the window. He pointed at the flowers blooming outside the window and said, "Look, the flowers in this garden are so beautiful."

Su Qianqian looked in the direction of his finger, with a delighted smile on her face, "It's really beautiful! You have good taste!"

Chu Junze put his arm around her shoulders, smiled and said, "As long as you like it!"

Just when the two of them had a rare moment of leisure, Eunuch Xi suddenly walked in from outside.

"Your Majesty, this is the secret letter just sent by the secret agent!" Eunuch Xi handed over the secret letter.

Hearing this, Chu Junze took the secret letter. When he finished reading it, his expression instantly became solemn. Then he handed the secret letter to Su Qianqian, "Qianqian, take a look too!"

Su Qianqian took the secret letter and read it carefully, then her brows gradually furrowed.

"I never thought that the Eighth Prince of Yong State was still so evil and so bold!" Chu Junze slammed the table in anger.

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Su Qianqian consoled him, "The most urgent task now is to find a way to deal with this matter."

Chu Junze nodded. "I will discuss countermeasures with the ministers tomorrow morning. Qianqian, do you have any ideas?"

Su Qianqian pondered for a moment, "I think we can first send people to strengthen the defense of the border. In addition, notify General Zhu to be ready for battle at any time.

If I remember correctly, the city walls and towers in the west have been replaced with cement, so it should be safe for the time being.

As for supplies such as food and weapons, we still need to send some more, just in case."

Chu Junze listened, and a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes, "Qianqian is right, you are thoughtful!"

"However, this matter still needs long-term consideration. You must not alert the enemy. You should discuss it with General Lin during the morning court tomorrow!" Su Qianqian reminded.

"Yes, I know. In fact, I sent Long Yi and the others there last night."

Chu Junze held Su Qianqian's hand tightly and said, "I feel much more at ease with you by my side."

Hearing this, Su Qianqian took his hand and said, "I'll give this to you, too!"

Seeing how sweetly the two of them were getting along, Eunuch Xi consciously stepped out.

After nightfall, Long Yi returned to the palace with injuries all over his body.

He staggered into the hall and knelt on one knee, "Your Majesty, I deserve to die for not completing my mission."

Chu Junze quickly stepped forward to help him up, "What happened? Tell me quickly!"

Long Yi took a deep breath and said slowly, "I followed your instructions and went to the western border to investigate, but was attacked by a group of mysterious men in black. Those men were very skilled, and I tried my best to escape."

Chu Junze frowned, "Could it be a spy from Yong State?"

Long Yi nodded, "I suspect they are assassins sent by Yong State to prevent us from obtaining intelligence."

Chu Junze's eyes became sharp, "How dare you sneak into our country to assassinate me. Long Yi, you should take good care of your injuries. I will investigate this matter thoroughly."

After saying that, Chu Junze turned and looked at Su Qianqian, "Qianqian, what do you think about this matter?"

Su Qianqian thought for a moment, "Your Majesty, this incident is obviously aimed at us. The top priority right now is to strengthen the capital's vigilance and find out the mastermind as soon as possible."

"In addition, we can also send people to secretly monitor those suspicious people." Su Qianqian suggested, "Also, this incident has reminded us that we must strengthen the defense of the border."

Chu Junze nodded in agreement, "Qianqian is right. But there are not many generals in the court that can be trusted..."

There are indeed not many generals in the court who can go to the battlefield now. The southern border is guarded by General Lin, the western border is guarded by General Zhu, and the only one left in the court is old General Lin, but he is too old to go to the battlefield.

Su Qianqian thought carefully about a general her elder brother had once told her about, "Your Majesty, if you trust me, I am willing to recommend someone."

"Oh?" Chu Junze's eyes flashed with surprise, "Who is this person?"

"That man is Deputy General Guo." Su Qianqian said, "He has repelled the enemy many times and is very experienced. He will definitely be able to take on this important task."

Chu Junze pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay, then Deputy General Guo will escort the food and other supplies to the border to support General Zhu. In addition, I will send more people to assist them."

“Well, but you should listen more to General Lin’s advice tomorrow morning.

The reason I recommended him is because my eldest brother once praised this Deputy General Guo to me, saying that he was very capable." Su Qianqian said seriously.

Hearing this, Chu Junze smiled and said, "That Deputy General Guo is actually General Lin's apprentice, so he is indeed very powerful!"

While they were still talking, Shen Zhuo walked in carrying his medicine box.

"Your humble servant greets His Majesty and His Majesty the Concubine!" Shen Zhuo was about to bow when he entered the room, but Chu Junze interrupted him directly: "Okay, I told you not to bow when there are no outsiders around. Come quickly and check Long Yi's injury."

"Okay, here I come." Shen Zhuo opened the medicine box, took out the tools, and skillfully treated Long Yi's wound.

Chu Junze watched from the side and asked, "How is it? Is his injury serious?"

Shen Zhuo replied while treating his wound: "His injuries are not serious, they are just superficial injuries, he will recover after a few days of rest."

Hearing this, Chu Junze nodded, "That's good, that's good, thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay. I can use him to practice my suturing skills!" As he said that, he took out the needle and thread and began to sew up Long Yi's wound.

Su Qianqian looked at him with a half-smile, and couldn't help but complain in her heart: "It seems that the medical books I gave him were not in vain, he already knows about suturing!"

After Shen Zhuo carefully treated the wound, he wrote some medicine and instructed: "Pick the medicine according to this prescription and take it twice a day. Do not let the wound get wet."

Long nodded in agreement.

After seeing his "suturing technique", Chu Junze couldn't help but praise him: "It seems that the medical school can open as scheduled!"
