A crown princess who doesn't do infrastructure construction isn't a good doctor.

The day of the flower viewing banquet is approaching. Since the venue is a village on the outskirts of the city, you have to get up very early if you want to arrive before noon.

As dawn broke, Beitang Yan opened his eyes, instinctively holding Qin Suiyou tightly in his arms. Then, remembering Qin Suiyou's instructions from the previous night, he called him to get up.

Poking Qin Suiyou's cheek, Beitang Yan whispered, "Wife, it's time to get up."

Qin Suiyou seemed oblivious, offering no response whatsoever.

Beitang Yan didn't want his wife to get up early, but he still remembered her instructions and continued to call out to Qin Suiyou.

"young married woman."

"Wife, wife."

Seeing that Qin Suiyou still didn't react, Beitang Yan's eyes darted around, and he suddenly thought of something.

Leaning close to Qin Suiyou's ear, Beitang Yan said in a low voice, "Baby..."

"Snapped!"

A slender, smooth hand firmly patted the lower half of Beitang Yan's face. The voice, still slightly hoarse from just waking up, made Beitang Yan swallow hard.

"Shut up, count to thirty more."

Holding Qin Suiyou's hand as he relaxed, Beitang Yan stared intently at the person before him. His eyes were clear, yet they inexplicably dispelled all of Qin Suiyou's sleepiness, who had his eyes closed.

Without waiting to finish counting to thirty, Qin Suiyou immediately stood up.

After washing up, Qin Suiyou picked out a set of new clothes from the ones that had already been prepared and changed into them, while Beitang Yan changed into a rather inconspicuous set of clothes that he had prepared in advance so that it would be convenient for him to go out before announcing that he had woken up. He then did Qin Suiyou's makeup and went along with Lu Xi, who was always busy, as Qin Suiyou's personal attendant.

As they approached the main gate, they happened to see Prince An escorting Princess An and Beitang Xinyue over. Beitang Xinyue wasn't going to the flower viewing banquet, but since it was on the way, Princess An asked her to get up early and go with them.

"Sister-in-law!"

Qin Suiyou nodded in response, and then greeted Prince An and his wife.

"Indeed, truly beautiful people don't need clothes to enhance their looks. The embroiderers used the most exquisite skills, but on Suiyou, although the clothes were still beautiful, they were still somewhat inferior."

Beitang Xinyue woke up from her nap and hurriedly chimed in, "True beauty doesn't need external packaging. Sister-in-law, you are truly one of the most beautiful women in the world!"

After saying that, Beitang Xinyue gave a thumbs-up.

Princess An didn't understand what her daughter's gesture meant, but she felt it was a bit impolite, so she patted Beitang Xinyue's hand.

"Be more dignified."

Beitang Xinyue withdrew her hand, but still said, "I didn't mean to be undignified. Lu Xi taught me this. It means to praise someone for being very capable."

Upon hearing that Lu Xi had taught her, Princess An smiled.

"So that's what it means. How interesting."

Beitang Xinyue frowned, slightly unconvinced.

"Mother, that's not what you said just now. Why are you so biased towards Lu Xi?"

"Because he's cute. Your mother hopes that your little brother will grow up to look like Lu Xi, how handsome he is."

"Then why aren't you as beautiful as your sister-in-law?"

"One of these looks is enough for our family."

"That……"

"All right."

Seeing that the mother and daughter seemed inclined to continue their conversation, Prince An interrupted them.

"It's getting late, it's time to set off."

Just before boarding the carriage, Beitang Xinyue wanted to sit with Qin Suiyou, but Princess An pulled her away.

Princess An looked at the tall man following behind Qin Suiyou and said, "Thank you for keeping an eye on him."

Princess An was unsure about her eldest son's current situation. After all, Beitang Yan had always been an extremely easy child to raise when he was young, but he suddenly became childish and willful as he grew up. Thinking back to the scene where he would flip the table if he couldn't see Qin Suiyou, and how he had lost his initial excitement of being closer to Qin Suiyou, Princess An was having a headache.

Qin Suiyou shook his head and replied, "It's alright, it's not hard work."

Remembering something, Princess An nodded and said, "That's right, he listens to you the most now, and it really breaks my heart as his mother."

Amused by the teasing remark, Qin Suiyou said, "No matter what, you are still his closest mother, and he will never distance himself from you."

Fearing that Qin Suiyou had misunderstood her meaning, Princess An replied, "Of course I know that. It's all thanks to you, otherwise that boy wouldn't even serve me a dish."

Once everyone was on the carriage, the accompanying guards, led by Wei Ming and He Dabao, were already in place. Uncle Ma drove the carriage carrying Princess An and began to move first.

The two carriages moved forward one after the other. He Dabao was originally sitting on the driver's seat, but after a while, he got into the carriage. Fortunately, the carriage was not small, and it was not too crowded after he was put in.

After greeting Qin Suiyou and Lu Xi, He Dabao hesitated for a moment when he looked at Beitang Yan, who was no longer recognizable.

"Boss?"

Seeing that Beitang Yan did not respond, He Dabao was stunned for a moment. Could it be that he guessed wrong?

Qin Suiyou called out to Beitang Yan, "Why aren't you answering?"

Still unaware that He Dabao was calling him, Beitang Yan frowned.

"That's not my name!"

The others suppressed their laughter, hearing a familiar voice but an unfamiliar tone, but they were also certain that the person in front of them was He Dabao, whom they had followed for many years, and they were helpless.

“I and the other guards are all under your command, so ‘boss’ is your title, not your name.”

Since Beitang Yan woke up, apart from Shuo Han, who was more often at the Prince An's residence, none of the other guards had been able to contact the amnesiac Beitang Yan. They were thinking about whether to go to Beitang Yan to report on the tasks they had been given, but Shuo Han stopped them. As a result, He Dabao, who had also started to have tasks during this period, only then did he realize that their leader had become like this.

Upon hearing this, Beitang Yan asked, "Are you good at it?"

"Forehead……"

Looking at his former wise, mighty, and invincible leader, He Dabao hesitated and said, "If we don't compare him to you and the boss, he's alright, I guess."

"Who is the boss?"

He Dabao quickly replied, "It's Shuo Han. You should have met him before, right?"

Then, He Dabao looked at Qin Suiyou.

Qin Suiyou nodded, indicating that Beitang Yan knew about Shuo Han.

Beitang Yan then said, "That should be pretty good."

He had a strange sense of how skilled the people he had met were. In his eyes, Shuo Han was not bad compared to other mortals, but he was probably not as good as the two non-human beings beside his wife.

Then Beitang Yan asked He Dabao, "Besides you and Shuo Han, how strong were the other people under my command?"

After carefully considering his words, He Dabao replied, "If we're talking about the guards, we were all trained by you back then. Those who have stayed in the team until now are all the best of the best, and in terms of official rank, the lowest is a seventh-rank captain."

I thought Beitang Yan would be pleased to hear this, but to my surprise, he said with a hint of disdain, "How come you're only a seventh-rank?"

He Dabao's eyes widened in shock at those five words. What did they mean by "talented"? They were actually looking down on them? How come he never knew that his boss looked down on them like this before?

Seeing that He Dabao was really provoked, Qin Suiyou said to Beitang Yan, "They are personal guards. If you hadn't gone to the battlefield, they wouldn't have had many opportunities to gain merit and a proper official position. The seventh rank is not low."

"Really?"

Qin Suiyou nodded.

"real."

Comforted by his wife, Beitang Yan then said, "In that case, I also have some decent subordinates. If you need anything in the future, you can tell me. Don't talk to others too much."

Qin Suiyou: "..."

So all that talk was just to find out if I had any capable people to use for my wife's chores.

Shaking his head helplessly, Qin Suiyou gave He Dabao a comforting look, and Lu Xi patted his shoulder, but he was also struggling to hold back his laughter.
