Granny Jin's expression was cold as she said in a deep voice, "Your Highness Wuyou must participate in the hunt!"

Moreover, this body must not be allowed to show any abnormalities to others!

This old servant believes the imperial physician will have a solution!

His gaze was fixed on the imperial physician, and his tone conveyed a command.

The imperial physician looked troubled, but she naturally understood what Granny Jin meant!

"This...this...I have done my best!"

Only then did Granny Jin nod in satisfaction, "In that case, go and prescribe the medicine!"

After the imperial physician left, Xiao Dezi was filled with anger.

He mustered up his courage and said to Granny Jin.

"Granny Jin...Your Highness...is already so badly injured!"

Your Majesty, don't you... don't you feel any pity for His Highness...?

His Highness is his own son…

No sooner had she finished speaking than Granny Jin raised her hand and slapped Xiao Dezi hard across the face, her eyebrows furrowing in anger.

"You damned lackey! How dare you speak ill of the Empress in private? Do you think your head is too safe to keep?"

Xiao Dezi staggered and fell to the ground after being beaten, the bright red finger marks starkly visible on his pale face.

He crawled two steps on his knees, gripped Granny Jin's skirt tightly, and slammed his forehead heavily against the blue brick floor.

"Granny! His Highness's health really can't be aggravated any further..."

"Please... did the nanny and the Queen refuse?"

A metallic taste rose in his throat, but he was oblivious, gripping the hem of the skirt even tighter.

Large teardrops fell onto Granny Jin's embroidered shoes, leaving dark watermarks.

He has always been by His Highness's side and knows all the suffering His Highness has endured over the years.

How could we stand by and watch His Highness be treated like this?

After Jin Mama finished beating Xiao Dezi, her brows furrowed even more.

He sighed, "Little Dezi, you just need to take good care of His Highness!"

Just do your job and don't meddle in other people's business!

"The Queen's decision cannot be refused..."

How could she not know about Prince Wuyou's situation? Yet the Empress was the prince's biological father.

How could they, as servants, interfere? The more they obstructed His Highness's pleas, the more severe the punishment would be.

Therefore, we can only obey our master's orders!

He then closed his eyes, kicked Xiao Dezi aside, and walked straight out!

Little Dezi's cries remained, "Granny Jin... Granny Jin..."

As Jin Ma walked away, the situation remained unchanged, and Xiao Dezi could only get up from the ground.

Upon returning to the Dao Hall, Feng Wuyou was found!

After school, Han Zixuan and Zhuang Xinyan began packing their things to leave.

Han Zixuan lived in the Ruian County Princess's Mansion, while Zhuang Xinyan lived in the Imperial Academy.

There are dormitories prepared for the students here, and Han Zixuan's idea is for Zhuang Xinyan to stay at her home.

But Zhuang Xinyan refused, saying, "The school is fine enough. I have a pageboy to serve me."

Don't worry, I'll definitely come over for a meal when I have time off!

Hearing Zhuang Xinyan's relaxed and carefree laughter, Han Zixuan didn't press the matter further.

"Alright, if anything happens, send someone to the residence to inform them immediately!"

Just as the two left, several figures moved behind them.

Han Zixuan noticed something was wrong and turned around, only to meet Murong Yudie's eyes.

The atmosphere suddenly turned somewhat cold, and Murong Yudie was the first to step over the two of them.

The eyes of the people behind them lingered on the two of them for a moment.

Zhuang Xinyan frowned, feeling utterly bewildered!

"These people are just bored..."

Han Zixuan watched the group walk away and said to Zhuang Xinyan, "You must be more careful in the Imperial Academy in the future!"

"okay!"

After saying goodbye, Han Zixuan quickened her pace.

Seeing the stones on the artificial hill nearby, I picked one that was fairly handy.

Then he walked in front of Murong Yudie and the others, and then took the stone in his hand.

He crushed it into small pieces and scattered them in front of the group, leaving them speechless with shock.

He stopped abruptly, too shocked to take another step, staring at the rubble on the ground in disbelief.

And there were figures walking ahead.

“She…she…Stone…”

"Ah...ah...this!"

Is it even human to crush a stone with bare hands?

Zhou Nvjun, who had been caught by Han Zixuan wiping the table, felt a chill run through her body.

Recalling his previous provocation, Han Zixuan's words kept echoing in his ears.

A cold sweat broke out on my back, and my legs trembled involuntarily.

Murong Yudie narrowed her eyes slightly; Han Zixuan was provoking her!

Hmph, but he does have some skill in manipulating stone with his bare hands!

But this didn't scare her...

Han Zixuan, who was walking in front, didn't turn her head back. She thought that showing off her skills should intimidate them to some extent!

Zhou Nujun, along with several others, spoke in trembling voices.

"This person... actually possesses such terrifying power...!"

"Don't mess with me again..."

"Mmm...yes...yes..."

Among them, some voices were filled with fear, while others were indifferent!

Qi Wei raised an eyebrow slightly, a cold smile curled at the corner of her lips, and disdain filled her brows.

His chin was arrogantly raised, his entire delicate face filled with disdain.

"Heh, he's just strong, at best a brute."

Does she really dare to attack us? She's just a figurehead county princess.

"Look how scared you all are...useless!" The people who were being talked about were hoarse and dared not utter a word of rebuttal.

Qi Wei is the only daughter of the Marquis of Changping's family, the only son in three generations, and is regarded like the apple of the eye by the Marquis of Changping's wife and husband.

She is extremely spoiled and pampered; probably no one in the entire capital dares to mess with her!

And what about them...?

Murong Yudie slowly looked over, their eyes met, and she slightly curved her lips into a smile.

"Heh, I heard that a new top courtesan has arrived at the Myriad Flowers Pavilion. I wonder if Lady Qi would be interested in seeing her?"

Qi Wei raised her eyes, smiled faintly, and nodded, "Hehe, of course I'll go take a look!"

They strode away, and the group exchanged glances before hurriedly following.

At the Ruian County Princess's residence, Uncle Qi led a group of servants.

The county magistrate's residence has finally been settled!

Shen Qingxi, Ji Beichen, and An Jinglan sat together in the main hall.

"My lady, now that we've enrolled at the Imperial Academy, we'll likely be staying in the capital for quite some time!"

Unlike last time, I was in such a rush that I didn't even have time to look around!

"Yes, it's late autumn, the weather is cool, it's definitely a good time to go out and have a look!"

We just don't know what's fun in Kyoto, especially since we have kids with us!

......"

Ji Beichen turned his gaze to An Jinglan, "Jinglan, you live in the capital, you must know where the scenery is beautiful!"

Shen Qingxi also turned her gaze to him. An Jinglan smiled, his fingertips lightly brushing the rim of the teacup, and nodded gently.

"I do know some things; there are many fun places to visit in Kyoto."

Chenghua Temple in the suburbs is a good place to visit, not to mention its thriving incense offerings.

The pine forest and clear spring behind the temple are truly exceptional; you should definitely take a stroll there.

Ji Beichen's eyes lit up as he looked at Shen Qingxi, "That sounds great! Let's talk to her about it when my wife comes back!"

"Uh-huh…"

Just then, a figure walked in from outside and asked, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

The men, their faces lighting up with joy, immediately stood up. "My lady... you're back! How is the Imperial Academy?"

Han Zixuan looked at the three of them gently and said softly, "It's quite good... much bigger than the official school..."

"By the way, what were you guys talking about just now?"
