Liang Chongyue finally finished studying the seven booklets, and the records alone filled more than three books.

"Yunling, please dress up for me. I am going to enter the palace."

She went to the palace to exchange other books for her scumbag father's hands and came back to study. I wonder how much she has learned before her scumbag father will let her go and give her the national treasury.

Liang Chongyue personally packed up the books she had studied and also took the notes she had made. These things were to be shown to her scumbag father, otherwise how could she show her diligence and hard work, and how she was different from those ignorant brothers and sisters.

"Your Highness, you are weak and it is cold in the morning and evening. Please wear more clothes. I will also prepare an extra cloak for you in the carriage so that you can wear it when you are cold."

When Liang Chongyue heard Yun Ling's words, she smiled at her with a knowing smile. It turned out that the people she raised were just as good at acting as she was.

It was already autumn, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was normal for her to be afraid of the cold since she had been ill for many days.

Liang Chongyue stood in front of the closet and let Yunling fiddle with her clothes. In the end, she wore three more layers of underwear than usual. Fortunately, they were all made of thin fabrics, so she just looked thick.

"Let's go. I won't be applying lip balm today."

Liang Chongyue had decided to play up the image of a frail beauty during this period. She didn't like unnecessary socializing, and there were many activities in autumn. In the capital, every aristocratic family liked to choose a day in autumn when it was neither too hot nor too cold to enjoy flowers, drink tea, or play polo or Cuju.

It is really interesting, but if you participate too much, it will become a bit boring.

Liang Chongyue got on the carriage and just as he walked out of the gate of the princess's mansion, he heard the sound of a marching team coming from not far away.

The royal family and the aristocratic families have many rules, so the official road in Qu'an has always been quiet. On ordinary days, you can't even hear the sound of a child laughing.

Liang Chongyue lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked in the direction of the sound.

The two teams of officers and soldiers were changing shifts. Liang Chongyue noticed that the armor they wore was different from that worn by the guards of the imperial city. They should be soldiers transferred from the camp outside the capital.

"With such a grand display, they're not worried about causing panic among the people. It seems that Father really wants to find these two people."

Liang Chongyue said this slowly, and then as if nothing had happened, she lowered the curtain, isolating herself from everything outside the carriage.

Liang Chongyue was now extremely glad that he had acted early enough. If so many days had passed, the patrolling soldiers would not have been able to find the person, and one of the two would have died.

Who knows if the scumbag dad will suddenly soften his heart and pick it up high and then put it down gently.

On the way to the palace, no matter where the carriage went, Liang Chongyue could hear the sound of the soldiers' armor rubbing against each other.

A preliminary calculation showed that there were at least four teams of people patrolling in shifts on the road she walked on.

Liang Chongyue thought of Liang Chongjing's head that was placed in the ice room, and was struggling over whether to find a suitable opportunity to send it away, so that her scumbag father would not have the idea of looking for him on the streets every day.

"Your Highness, the Meridian Gate is just ahead. There are soldiers inspecting the carriages."

Ping'an's voice came from the front. Liang Chongyue felt that the speed of the carriage was slowing down little by little, but it did not stop immediately.

Even when passing through the Meridian Gate, the carriage only stopped for a moment when Ping An took out her badge, and then was allowed to pass.

After Liang Chongyue got off the carriage, he took a sedan chair and went directly to the Yangxin Palace.

In the Yangxin Palace, Liang Zhan received the news when Chongyue went out.

"Qi Deyuan."

"The slave is here."

"Go and fetch the forty-two national policies from the treasury."

When Qi Deyuan heard about the 42 national policies in the national treasury, he vaguely guessed that Her Royal Highness the Princess had returned. He immediately bowed and stepped down to get the 42 national policies for Her Royal Highness.

After Qi Deyuan left, Liang Zhan stood up and walked to a row of bookshelves. He turned a jade statue of a Qilin, and a key with an image of a Qilin printed on it fell out from inside.

Liang Zhan picked it up and returned to the table, staring at the Qilin Key in his hand again and again. He waved his hand, and a man in a black robe walked out from the darkness.

"Your Majesty, you called me."

"An Yi, do you think I was too harsh on the eldest and second eldest?"

Liang Zhan didn't even raise his head when asking the question. His fingers stroked the Qilin on the key. There was a hint of sadness in his tone, but it was much less than the anger he felt when he learned that Her Royal Highness the Princess had been humiliated.

"I am stupid and have no children. I don't understand."

Liang Zhan was amused by his words, and then he moved his gaze from the Qilin in his hand to look at An Yi who was wrapped in a black robe.

"As a son of man, if you were them, would you be disappointed in me?"

After Liang Zhan finished speaking, he looked at An Yi's eyes, which were devoid of any emotion, and felt like he was playing the lute to a cow.

"No, I am unlucky and have never felt the love of my parents. Your Majesty picked me up and this life belongs to you. If you want me to die, just say it."

Liang Zhan then remembered the night when he picked up An Yi. He was abandoned in the mountains by his most trusted royal brother. If his mother had not secretly sent people to protect him, he would have been eaten by the wild beasts in the mountains.

The road to power is bound to be bloody and unscrupulous, but what Daxia wants is a wise ruler who can continue its prosperity, not a bastard who disregards his sister's reputation for his own selfish desires.

"Starting tomorrow, have the patrolling soldiers withdraw in batches. This daily patrol is causing the people to become increasingly anxious and uneasy."

An Yi stood in the hall and looked up to see the extra white hair on His Majesty's temples. It seemed that His Majesty had aged a lot in just this year.

"Your Majesty, you can simply tell Her Royal Highness the Princess about your plans. Her Royal Highness is a truly capable person and will definitely not let you down."

When Liang Zhan heard what An Yi said, he said nothing, but just looked at An Yi in silence. There was a deep meaning in his clear eyes that An Yi could not understand. After a moment, Liang Zhan waved his hand to let An Yi leave.

When An Yi left, he happened to see the princess's procession in the dark. From a distance, he saw that the princess sitting on the sedan chair looked not very well. An Yi remembered what the imperial physician had said when he came to report to His Majesty these past few days:

Her Royal Highness's illness is strange. Her pulse doesn't show any signs of weakness, and it is impossible to determine the cause of the illness.

An Yi waited until Her Royal Highness the Princess's procession had passed before leaving from the dark.

As soon as Liang Chongyue arrived at the Yangxin Palace, Little Leo came to greet her.

"Your servant greets Her Royal Highness, Your Majesty, please allow Her Highness to enter."

Liang Chongyue nodded slightly to Little Li Zi and then walked towards the gate of the Yangxin Palace with Yun Ling, with Little Li Zi following beside him.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has been in a bad mood recently, and there has been no news from the two princes to this day."

Little Leo followed Liang Chongyue and lowered his voice to tell her roughly what had happened around his scumbag father recently.
