At the end of spring and early sumr, the capital welcod a hint of heat.
Su Xiaoxiao was checking Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu's howork in the study.
Sir taught poetry in the morning.
"Who's going to recite it first?"
Su Xiaoxiao asked.
"Dahu."
"Dahu."
The two brothers spoke in unison.
Su Xiaoxiao asked seriously, "You two didn't study seriously in class, right?"
The two of them shook their heads in unison. "I studied seriously."
It would be strange if Su Xiaoxiao believed them.
"Dahu will carry the first stanza."
Da Hu recited the stanza clearly.
"Erhu."
Su Xiaoxiao.
Erhu shook his head and morized it thodically.
Then it was Xiaohu's turn.
Xiaohu covered his stomach. "Mother, Xiaohu's stomach hurts."
Su Xiaoxiao was unmoved. "Your stomach hurts every ti you have to morize a book. How many tis has it been?"
Xiaohu said aggrievedly, "Mother, you've changed. If I weren't like this in the past, would I still be your favorite baby?"
Wei Xiaobao was sitting at the door playing with a flower basket. When he heard this, he turned around. "Isn't Dad Mom's favorite?"
Su Xiaoxiao choked.
Don't talk nonsense, the little girl.
Xiaohu really couldn't morize it.
Su Xiaoxiao could only write it down first before checking the second one. "Erhu, go first."
Erhu's small body trembled. "Mother, isn't it Dahu? Dahu is my brother. Brother can recite first!"
11:25
Erhu's small body trembled. "Mother, isn't it Dahu? Dahu is my brother. Brother can recite first!"
Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, "When you ate the at, you didn't say that Brother would eat first. You're not allowed to morize the books first."
Erhu said, "Let Brother eat first next ti."
Su Xiaoxiao said, "Then let Brother recite it first next ti."
Erhu could not win against his mother. He could not win at all.
Su Xiaoxiao said, "Recite."
Erhu stamred, "I… I… I forgot."
A mother knew her son best. Didn't Su Xiaoxiao understand him?
The little fellow did not listen to the class at all, let alone master it. He had to cram; fair weather atheists turn to god in a pinch.
If he could learn it after one try, it ant that he was not stupid. Unfortunately, he was not focused on her studies.
Su Xiaoxiao sighed.
Fortunately, there was Dahu to count on.
"I'm counting on you."
Dahu felt a heavy burden on his shoulders and nodded solemnly. "Mother, don't worry. I'll study hard."
His two brothers were useless. This family could only rely on him.
After checking the howork, they would be punished or rewarded.
After leaving the study, they were good brothers again.
The three of them valiantly went to look for their two lackeys—Little Wei Qing and the Little Ghostfear.
When Wei Ting returned from court, Wei Xiaobao was taking an afternoon nap.
"You're so sleepy. Are you sick?"
He touched the fat girl's forehead worriedly.
Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and glanced at a fat girl who was drooling. "How can she not be tired after playing all night?"
She had just realized that Wei Xiaobao had recently developed a new function of the pharmacy—the video room.
Not only could she watch television, but she could also play video gas.
If she went in for three minutes, she would be thrown out of the pharmacy, but Wei Xiaobao could play for the entire night—
The pharmacy really spoiled the child!
Su Xiaoxiao seriously suspected that if she continued to spoil her, Wei Xiaobao might be able to transmigrate back.
Wait.
Transmigrate back?
Su Xiaoxiao was frightened by her own thoughts.
"Wei Xiaobao!"
Su Xiaoxiao shook the sleeping fat girl awake cruelly.
Wei Xiaobao asked in a daze, "Mother, what?"
Su Xiaoxiao reminded him, "After you enter the pharmacy, you're not allowed to go to strange places."
Wei Xiaobao tilted his head. "What's strange?"
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a mont. "It's… it's a place different from our capital. The streets, pavilions, and clothes are all very different. Do you understand?"
"Oh."
"Oh."
"It scares you so much."
Wei Ting said, "Don't worry. She's smart. She's even smarter than Yuan Bao."
Su Xiaoxiao thought about it and agreed.
Yuan Bao was smart. Everyone knew that he was smart.
However, Wei Xiaobao was smart. Everyone thought that she had fought her way out by acting cute.
Moreover, the pharmacy had given her special treatnt and taught her a lot of knowledge through the video room.
After lunch, soone from the palace ca. Xiao Zhonghua hurriedly called Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao into the palace.
"You were summoned as soon as the court assembly ended. Could it be that there's an urgent matter?"
Su Xiaoxiao asked Wei Ting, "Were you impeached again in court?"
Wei Ting said, "Can you hope for to be better? It's to summon the two of us into the palace."
Su Xiaoxiao's delicate body trembled. "Am I impeached too? I didn't do anything!"
Wei Ting was speechless. "…Are you pregnant again?"
It took Su Xiaoxiao a while to react. He was referring to being stupid for three years with pregnancy. So this guy was beating around the bush and calling her stupid.
Su Xiaoxiao glared at him and turned to walk out. "Dad—"
This ti, it was Wei Ting's turn to tremble!
He had just been punished yesterday and his arms and legs were still sore!
"I was wrong."
"What did you do wrong?"
"I shouldn't have not impregnated you. This way, you have a reason to continue being stupid."
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless!
Wei Ting, you're dead!
It was not too late to train a little husband.
When she returned from the palace, she would complain to her father-in-law, her biological father, her grandfather, her eldest brother, and the Head of the Secret Service!
Wei Ting suddenly felt a murderous aura pressing down.
He seed to have gone overboard…
The couple entered the palace and saw Xiao Zhonghua in the imperial study.
Xiao Zhonghua let out a long sigh. "You're finally here."
"Your Majesty."
The two of them bowed.
"There's no need."
Xiao Zhonghua raised his hand. He was not being polite. It was an ergency. He was really anxious.
"You can go out first."
He instructed the palace servants.
The palace servants retreated respectfully.
Su Xiaoxiao glanced around. This was a big deal.
Xiao Zhonghua handed a scroll to the two of them. "Take a look yourself."
Wei Ting took it and unfolded it before reading it seriously with Su Xiaoxiao.
After reading it, their expressions turned ugly.
There was a murder in Lingnan. All the missing people were children under the age of six, boys and girls. There were as many as a hundred people.
In order to achieve political achievents, the magistrate of Lingnan hid it. If not for the fact that Madam Tao's maiden family was in Lingnan and her family happened to ntion it on the family book, Xiao Zhonghua would have been deceived for who knew how long.
Coincidentally?
Su Xiaoxiao muttered to herself.
It was true that the Head of the Secret 🤐 Service's maternal family was in Lingnan, but the ntion of this in the family letter was probably fake. The Head of the Secret Service had his own spies. His subordinates must have discovered the cri of the magistrate of Lingnan.
It seed that he did not care about the Imperial Court, but he silently protected Hua Hua's empire.
Xiao Zhonghua said seriously, "The murderer is vicious and cunning. I'm worried about sending others to investigate. I hope you can go to Lingnan and personally find out the truth and save all the children."
Wei Ting said nothing.
Xiao Zhonghua sighed. "I know that you don't want to leave the capital. The children at ho will miss you, but since you're already a father, you should understand the pain of those parents."
Wei Ting shook his head. "Your Majesty, I'm thinking about sothing else."
Xiao Zhonghua said, "Tell ."
Wei Ting said, "Can you bring Su Xuan to Lingnan?"
Su Xiaoxiao whispered, "Why are you bringing the Head of the Secret Service?"
Wei Ting replied softly, "He wrote the letter. He must have so clues."
Su Xiaoxiao muttered, "As expected of the Head of the Secret Service!"
