The three-year-old host decides to raise an emperor father for himself.

From the moment Xiao Lanxing landed until she rushed out, Nuandong and the guards who had been blocking them didn't have time to react. By the time they all tried to reach out and grab her, Xiao Lanxing had already sped away like a small cannonball.

Nuandong looked at her empty hand, then at the little girl who had widened the distance between them in just a few breaths, and stared in disbelief.

The guards didn't have time to think about anything else; they immediately became anxious, and one of them said to the other, "Go and ask for instructions quickly!"

As he spoke, he rushed over, wanting to restrain Xiao Lanxing, or at least keep an eye on her.

Even if it's just a baby, we can't let our guard down easily, especially since some of our brothers were recently punished because this baby suddenly appeared next to the prince.

But Xiao Lanxing looked like a weak and helpless baby, yet for some reason she was quite agile and quick. Plus, she was small, so once she disappeared into the bushes, she was gone in an instant.

guard:"……!"

Warm Winter came to her senses at this point, took two steps forward, wanting to catch up and see, but then remembered something and stopped.

Her expression shifted several times before she finally gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go and fetch the head steward."

With that, he turned and left.

She wasn't worried about Xiao Lanxing's safety. On the surface, there were only a few guards here, but in reality, there were quite a few people hidden here. If anything unexpected happened, they would take action in time.

As for Xiao Lanxing's life safety, there is no need to worry. Judging from Chen Li's previous attitude, although it is still unclear whether the little girl is really of royal blood, at least no one will want her dead.

At best, it's just that the child gets caught and criticized.

She's still so young, who can hold a grudge against a little baby?

At least Nuandong knew that Chief Steward Chen wasn't such a stingy person.

Suddenly, everyone inside and outside the courtyard had their own things to do, and the once quiet and silent courtyard became lively.

The commotion naturally attracted the attention of those inside. Xuan Yuanjing's ears twitched, and he looked towards the window: "What's going on?"

After a few moments of silence, a figure appeared not far in front of him, knelt on one knee, and recounted what had just happened in the courtyard.

Upon hearing that it was Xiao Lanxing who made the noise, Xuan Yuanjing's eyes flickered slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard some noises coming from the window closest to him.

The others inside the house also heard the commotion and immediately went on alert.

Xuanyuan Jing seemed to realize something, raised his hand to signal the hidden guards not to move, and gestured for the person massaging his legs to move aside. He then slowly got up and walked to the window.

Upon seeing this, the bodyguard in charge of the massage opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing and stepped aside.

Even so, he was on edge, ready to pounce at any moment.

Just then, the window was suddenly pried open from the outside, and a small figure climbed in through the window, only to meet Xuan Yuanjing's subtle gaze.

Small figure: ……

Xuanyuan Jing paused for a moment, looked at the little guy covered in grass clippings, and pursed his lips slightly, "What are you doing?"

This small figure is naturally Xiao Lanxing.

However, at this moment, Xiao Lanxing was no longer the clean and well-behaved girl she used to be. Her hair and clothes were all messy, and in just a short while, a few leaves drifted down from her and landed on the very clean and expensive carpet.

Upon hearing Xuan Yuanjing's question, Xiao Lanxing sensed that her father seemed to be in a bad mood. Although his expression did not reveal his emotions, she could vaguely sense it.

But Xiao Lanxing didn't understand why, nor did she think that Xuan Yuanjing was in a bad mood because of her. Her eyes rolled around, and in order to cheer up her father, she directly raised up something she had been covering in her arms.

Xiao Lanxing: "Daddy, a present."

Xuanyuan Jing slowly shifted his gaze, meeting the eyes of the living creature that the little guy was firmly holding in his hand.

After a moment, he twitched his lips: "A cat?"

Xiao Lanxing, seeing that he recognized her, gave a big smile and said, "Yes!"

Xuan Yuanjing thought about the news he had just heard, and then looked at Xiao Lanxing, who was beaming with joy and ready to give him something. After a moment of thought, he asked, "Did you see this raccoon dog and want to catch it to give to me, which is why you ran away?"

Xiao Lanxing blinked, and after briefly understanding the meaning behind Xuan Yuanjing's words, she nodded affirmatively and smiled brightly: "Daddy, if you're not happy, Kitty will be happy!"

There were too many reasons why Xiao Lanxing couldn't explain them at this moment, but she inexplicably knew that when people are unhappy, raising small animals can make them feel much better!

In her hand was a cub that looked quite young. Its species was not yet clear, but it was a hawksbill turtle. Its eyes were wide open, and when it stared at the tall two-legged beast in front of it, it did not show much fear.

Xuanyuan Jing raised his hand, signaling someone to take the kitten from Xiao Lanxing's hands. He stared at Xiao Lanxing silently for a while, then asked, "You know martial arts?"

At this moment, rather than worrying about why there was a cat in his yard, Xuan Yuanjing was clearly more concerned about the information revealed by Xiao Lanxing's behavior.

Xuan Yuanjing already had many doubts in his mind about the little guy's sudden appearance on his bed.

Just now, Xuanyuan Jing had personally witnessed how the little guy climbed in through the window and how he landed lightly.

The window was about two small stars high. An ordinary child would be too scared to move, let alone have the skills to do it.

But this creates even more problems.

Xuanyuan Jing himself was a martial artist, and he knew much more about things than those laymen.

Given Xiao Lanxing's age, unless she started learning martial arts in the womb, the only explanation that could explain her skill level is that she is a prodigy.

Moreover, although the incident happened suddenly, Xuanyuan Jing did not make any mistakes.

Just now, apart from the noise from opening the window, Xiao Lanxing didn't make any other noise from beginning to end.

Xuanyuan Jing stared intently at Xiao Lanxing, wanting to hear her answer.

Generally speaking, children of this age are not expected to lie, and even if they do lie, it is difficult for them to fool adults.

So……

Xiao Lanxing blinked and tilted her head: "Martial arts?"

Xuanyuan Jing thought she was going to ask what martial arts were, and was about to speak when the little one continued, "I can't dance."

Xuanyuan Jing: "...Not this dance."

He paused for a moment, then rubbed his forehead. "Never mind, how did you even manage to climb in like that?"

Hearing this question, Xiao Lanxing looked at Xuan Yuanjing, then turned to look at the window behind her, puzzled: "How did you climb over? You just got in like that!"

Xuanyuan Jing: "..."

Chen Li arrived in a hurry, just in time to interrupt Xuan Yuanjing from continuing his questioning.

Xuanyuan Jing remained silent for a while, then, after letting someone in, directly instructed Chen Li: "Arrange a few bodyguards for her."

Although many things are still unclear, it is a fact that it is obvious to the naked eye that this child is someone that ordinary people cannot keep an eye on.

Chen Li: ?
