Mother!" Xiao Yu Ge walked over."Song'er!" When Xiao Fu saw Xiao Yuge, she was like seeing a glimmer of hope: "Song'er, the doctor said your brother's leg is broken and there's no hope. Your brother...Suddenly, a roar was heard, and the next second, a big foot kicked Zhang Yan out!

"Your Majesty!"

Then everyone came to their senses and quickly knelt down to pay their respects.

As it happened, the Emperor had just returned from Shoukang Palace and was passing by here. Therefore, every word Zhang Yan had said was heard by him, which made him tremble with rage!

The emperor's eyes, reddened by rage, seemed as if they would tear Zhang Yan apart: "You vile woman, how dare you humiliate my prince like this! You deserve to die!"

"Your Majesty, please spare me! Your daughter-in-law knows she was wrong! Your daughter-in-law knows she was wrong!" Zhang Yan, coming to her senses, finally realized the gravity of the situation. Just now, she had been so overcome with anger that she blurted out everything she had been keeping inside. Now, she had made a huge mistake.

“Do you know wrong You also know wrong Huh Even if my son is disabled, he is still my prince. How dare you bully him like this Come here! The Princess Consort has committed treason by striking a royal family member. Whip her fifty times and throw her into the Heavenly Prison, awaiting judgment!”

"Father! The concubine knows she was wrong! The concubine knows she was wrong!" Zhang Yan's face turned pale with fright, and she kept kowtowing. Just moments ago she had been so arrogant, but now she was utterly humiliated.

“Strike! Strike him hard! I want everyone to know that my son is not to be bullied by anyone. Otherwise, this will be their fate!” The Emperor’s face was still contorted with anger. He knew he had always ignored his son, thinking that the imperial prince would have everything he needed in the palace. But he hadn't expected that someone would dare to bully his son in a place he couldn't see. Judging by this situation, it certainly wasn't the first time. For the first time, he felt pity for his son whom he had neglected for twenty years.

"Ah! Father Emperor, your daughter-in-law knows she was wrong! Your daughter-in-law knows she was wrong, and she won't dare again, please spare her life..." Zhang Yan's voice was hoarse and filled with desperation. The sound of the board hitting her one after another was clear as day, it's estimated that with these blows, even if she didn't die, she would have lost half her life.

Those palace maids and eunuchs who had once bullied Qian Yi'an were so frightened that they trembled, afraid that if they made a careless mistake, they would be caught and meet the same fate as the Crown Princess.

After this, I bet no one will underestimate Qian Yi'an again.

“Father, although Zhang Yan was wrong, my son also erred. It was I who failed to restrain her, allowing her to behave so unacceptably. Please, Father, show mercy and forgive her this time.” No one had expected that at this moment, Qian Yi'an would actually come forward to plead for Zhang Yan.

“An'er, she humiliated you so badly, and you actually pleaded for her You say you are at least my imperial son, how can a lowly woman be so disrespectful” The Emperor looked at him with bewilderment, his eyes filled with the feeling that he was dealing with an incompetent and useless person. Wasn't he just trying to assert authority over Consort Xian

"Father, though she speaks harshly, she is not wrong. I am a cripple, with no power or influence. Even if Father were to kill her today, it would not change the fact. Since she has married me, she is my wife, and how can I stand by and watch her suffer like this"

"You You're still such a clueless child!" The Emperor sighed, feeling a mix of exasperation and disappointment. He glanced at the Grand Astrologer beside him and, as was his habit, asked, "Grand Astrologer, what do you think we should do about this"

"Your Majesty, weren't you still worrying yesterday about who would lead the Wolf Cavalry Prince Liang is also busy entertaining the five princesses from Tianzhu Kingdom recently and has too much on his plate. In my humble opinion, Prince Xian would be a suitable candidate for this position."

"Wolf Rider Army" The Emperor subconsciously glanced at Qian Yi'an and whispered, "Can he really do it"

The Grand Tutor stroked his beard and nodded. "Your Majesty, why not let Prince Xian try"

"Well, then, let's follow the Grand Master's suggestion." The Emperor readily agreed with the Grand Master: "From today onwards, the Wolf Rider Army will be under the command of His Highness Prince Xian. You said he has no power and influence Well, today I shall grant him that authority!" With that, he took out the token of the Wolf Rider Army from among his robes and had An Gong present it to Qian Yi'an.

"Father Emperor, this humble son is physically impaired and fears he cannot fulfill his duties!" Qian Yi'an seemed to be filled with panic and astonishment.

"An'er, with your father here, boldly accept the token. From now on, if anyone dares to humiliate you again, you can handle it yourself!"

"Your Highness, the Emperor values you so much, please accept his gratitude." Eunuch An also smiled and handed the token to Qian Yi'an.

"Your son thanks the Emperor for his grace! I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty's hard work!" Qian Yi bowed with both hands, holding up the token and respectfully thanking the emperor.

"Alright, everyone, disperse." The Emperor glanced at Zhang Yan, who was beaten to the brink of death, and said to Qian Yi'an, "Yi'an, now that you have power in your hands, how you handle her is up to you." With that, he strode away.

This is Xiao Yu's first time seeing the legendary State Master. He looks just like the rumors described: tall and thin, with a face that's too gaunt. It always feels a bit off, much like how he's depicted in storybooks. He's holding a duster in his hand, its purpose unknown. He walks with outward-turning legs, giving him an overall awkward appearance.

I don't know if I'm overthinking it, but as the Grand Tutor turned to leave, he gave her two extra looks. Those eyes, no matter how you look at them, feel strange. Is he going to cause trouble

In the previous life, there wasn't anything like a national master appearing. This life, it seems like many more have appeared. Could it be that the events of this life will be different from the last

"Bring the Crown Princess back, and have a physician attend to her." Qian Yi'an looked at Zhang Yan, who was beaten unconscious. A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, quickly disappearing before anyone could notice.

He was unexpectedly caught by Xiao Yuge. She didn't know if it was her own illusion, but when Qian Yi'an took the token just now, the eyes that quickly dropped seemed to flash with excitement. He clearly cared about the Wolf Rider token very much, but on the surface, he pretended not to want it.

Seeing Zhang Yan's tragic fate, Xiao Yu Fu didn't hesitate any longer. She was afraid that even a moment's delay would result in Qiang Yi An holding her accountable. The current King Xian commanded thousands of soldiers and the wolf cavalry. Moving against a lowly minister's daughter like her wouldn't be a problem for him. She wouldn't be foolish enough to stay there and suffer needlessly.

"Your Highness, King Xian! Congratulations!" Although Xiao Yuge had doubts in her heart, she still happily stepped forward to congratulate him. After all, with this status, he would at least no longer be bullied by those palace maids.

“This is thanks to Ge’er as well. It wouldn't have been possible without you!” Qian Yi’an shook the token in his hand. If not for her, how could he have intentionally lured his father here and obtained this token he had craved for so long

"My lord, are you hosting a feast"like she was helping them... 。"Why should I be angry You even dressed up as me, imitating everything about me and doing the things I would have done anyway. I'm happy for you!" 。“Xiao Yu Ge is truly...
