The daughter of the emperor is beautiful and holds the power over the world

Si Zhengxuan got married at the age of twenty and had his eldest son Si Qingshan at the age of twenty-one. Si Qingshan is twenty-three years old this year, and Si Zhengxuan is forty-four years old.

This Situ is not very old, but his temples are slightly gray. His deep and three-dimensional facial features still show the handsomeness of his youth.

However, what Si Yan admired most was not Situ's love for his deceased wife and children, but his heart for the country and the people.

When the entire Daxuan court was controlled by the Xin family, the officials in the court were corrupt and decadent, and all the ministers kept silent, Si Zhengxuan was the only one who directly confronted the Imperial Noble Consort and the Prime Minister's faction.

As Si Tu, he is not tempted by beauty, money, or power. He always maintains his original intention for the sake of Da Xuan and fights to the end in this filthy torrent. This is his spirit that Si Yan admires the most.

When they left the palace, it was already dusk and the sun was setting in the sky.

The carriage was driving on the prosperous Changmen Street in Shangjing. Shops were lined on both sides of the road. The street lights were on and the shouts of vendors could be heard from the shop doors.

The carriage was quiet. None of the three men spoke. Si Zhengxuan looked outside, and Si Qingshan sat upright.

Si Yan's gaze fell on Si Zhengxuan. She looked at the middle-aged man opposite her, as if she saw not only a father, but also a comrade-in-arms on the same front.

The war in Shangjing City has officially begun. No matter how much swords and blood there are in the future, no matter how rivers of blood flow, they have no way to retreat.

Si Zhengxuan finally noticed his daughter's gaze and turned his head to meet his daughter's dark and bright eyes.

This girl went to the border, and after coming back, she was even more patient than her father.

She didn't say a word all the way here. Wasn't she very talkative when she was in the palace?

"Why are you looking at me?" Si Zhengxuan asked.

"Father is handsome." A smile spread across Si Yan's lips, and her clear eyes revealed a bit of the innocence of a little girl.

"You have no respect for your elders." Si Zhengxuan glared at him and couldn't help but scold him.

The carriage was quiet. Si Yan paused for a moment before speaking, "My daughter misses her father."

Si Yan was not good at saying such sticky words, but she said it anyway because she knew the father in front of her needed it.

Si Zhengxuan suddenly couldn't hold it anymore, and looked at Si Yan with red eyes.

He thought that his daughter's personality had changed drastically after returning from the border, and she had become estranged from him as a father. He didn't expect that this girl would still speak like a little girl.

Before Si Zhengxuan could speak, Si Yan rushed over, hugged Si Zhengxuan's shoulders, grinned and said, "My daughter hasn't seen her father for a long time. I miss him very much."

At this moment, the worry on Si Zhengxuan's face disappeared and his heart softened.

He gently pushed Si Yan and said, "Sit down properly and don't behave yourself."

"No one else saw us." Si Yan smiled and sat down obediently.

The atmosphere in the carriage became relaxed. Si Qingshan couldn't help but touch his nose. The father and daughter seemed to be real relatives, and he, the eldest brother, was adopted.

"You've suffered a lot at the border this time." Si Zhengxuan looked at his daughter who had lost a lot of weight and couldn't help but feel distressed.

He sent this girl to the border because he didn't want the imperial concubine to continue to focus on her.

He thought that Prince Yong was at the border and Qingshan was also at the border, so he cruelly sent the girl over as well.

Unexpectedly, it almost cost this girl her life.

Si Yan smiled and said, "No, my daughter learned a lot at the border this time."

Si Zhengxuan's father lowered his airs, but his doubts remained undiminished: "Did you meet the legendary doctor Yunya at the border?"

"I don't know him." Si Yan shook his head with a bright smile on his face.

Who could have imagined that the dignified Lord Situ would be so emotionally influenced by his own daughter?

Si Zhengxuan looked at his daughter and smiled, but his expression turned serious: "What about what you said today?"

"Father, it's all true." Si Yan sensed his father's concern and couldn't help but explain with a smile, "It was the genius doctor Yunya who was invited by Prince Yan for Prince Yong."

Si Zhengxuan nodded. Prince Yan and Prince Yong were once close friends, so it was not surprising that Prince Yan found the genius doctor Yunya for Prince Yong.

"Then why did you ask Imperial Physician He to specifically inform His Majesty that Divine Doctor Yunya was coming to treat Prince Yong?"

Si Zhengxuan found that he had a lot of questions, but the series of actions this girl had taken today had made even this old father a little confused, and he had to make things clear.

Si Yan's expression softened. "My daughter wants to let Your Majesty know that Prince Yong's health can still be saved. I also want Your Majesty to consider more than just Prince Xin when considering appointing a crown prince."

Si Zhengxuan had actually thought of this. If Prince Yong's health was really so bad, His Majesty might not consider Prince Yong when appointing the crown prince.

But when he heard the girl say it with his own ears, Si Zhengxuan still couldn't help being surprised.

This girl can now calculate many things in the court?

Si Yan leaned close to Si Zhengxuan's ear and said with a smile, "Father, the war between us and the Xin family has begun in full swing."

Si Zhengxuan was shocked and quickly pulled down the curtain of the carriage.

"Yan'er, remember, be careful with your words and actions."

"My daughter knows. She knows what's going on." Si Yan replied.

Si Zhengxuan hesitated to speak. This girl didn't look like someone who had no sense of propriety, but she was so bold that it made people tremble with fear.

Si Zhengxuan looked at his daughter calmly and said, "What you did today was very risky."

Si Yan replied softly: "Opportunities are sought in danger."

Si Zhengxuan thought this girl was really bold: "Yan'er, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. His Majesty's thoughts are not so easy to guess. If there is even the slightest mistake..."

"That's because you haven't met me." Si Yan's eyes were bright as he looked at his father gently.

"Arrogant!" Si Zhengxuan scolded lightly.

Si Yan smiled as if he hadn't heard his father's scolding. "Father, there's someone selling osmanthus cake outside. I'll go buy some."

Si Yan knew that Si Zhengxuan still couldn't accept her transformation all at once. Although she didn't intend to hide her edge, it was necessary to give this loving father some time to get to know her again.

"Don't you hate eating pastries the most?" Si Zhengxuan remembered that this girl hated eating this kind of pastries the most.

"The children like it." Si Yan replied softly, "Brother has already written to tell father, right? I took in two younger brothers, Sice and Sizhe, at the border, and also adopted the remaining ten children."

"I said it." Seeing that this girl was bought for the orphan brought back from the border, Si Zhengxuan's heart couldn't help but soften again.

This girl has a kind heart and is worthy of being Si Zhengxuan's daughter.

"Father, I'll go with Ayan." Si Qingshan followed his sister out of the carriage.

There are a lot of children, so we need to buy more. I’m afraid Ayan can’t carry it all by himself.

Watching the brother and sister get off the carriage, Si Zhengxuan couldn't help but shake his head.

Forget it, she is his own daughter after all, so let her be a little wild. After all, isn’t it him, her father, who spoiled her like that?

As long as she can be sensible.

Si Yan and Si Qingshan ordered four large bags of pastries, and she and her brother took two bags each. At this moment, a man suddenly squeezed over and knocked the pastries in Si Yan's hand to the ground.

Si Yan looked up and saw that the person in the lead was wearing a gorgeous purple robe, which was the favorite color of the children of the powerful and wealthy in the capital. He had an ink-colored jade pendant and a sword on his waist.

The nobleman in front of him had a smile on his face, and his smile was mixed with frivolity: "I'm sorry, young lady..."

Si Zhengxuan was still thinking about the matter between this girl and Prince Yan, which he had not yet asked about. He would definitely ask about it later.

Suddenly, I heard my daughter's cold voice coming from outside: "It's okay, just pick up these cakes."

Si Zhengxuan lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked, only to see cakes scattered all over the ground in front of the shop opposite. Opposite Si Yan stood several familiar bullies from the capital.

A fierce henchman yelled at Si Yan, "How dare you order my young master to pick up something? Do you know who my young master is?"

Si Yan glanced over and said, "Whoever it is, you have to pick it up for me."

The attendant beside the noble young master shouted, "My young master is the son of the Minister of Justice."

Si Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. The son of the Minister of Justice? That's really a narrow road for enemies!

Four years ago, it was the current Minister of Punishment who severely injured Prince Yong in prison.
