"How dare you!" Hurry up and leave! " Xiao Yin's body flashed as he snatched the imperial edict from Xiao Jin Feng's hand and turned to see Eunuch Li out of the house!

When Xiao Yin turned around, Xiao Jin Feng was standing in front of him!

"I want to see His Majesty! He is clearly making things difficult for our Duke Xiao Palace by wanting our royal father to come onto the battlefield, yet I am still staying in the palace. What kind of logic is this! " Xiao Jin Feng's sword-like eyebrows were like peaks as a hint of anger flashed through his deep eyes!

"Impudent!" Who do you think you are! How could you doubt the emperor's decree?! "Go back!" Xiao Yin let out a cold shout as he blocked the entrance!

"But …"

"Go back!" Otherwise, don't call me Royal Father! "

Seeing the coldness in Xiao Yin's eyes, Xiao Jin Feng turned around in fury. However, in that instant, he met Duan Mu Yan's dim eyes, and his eyes were as cold as knives!

"Senior Feng …" Duan Mu Yan really wanted to apologize, but when she opened her mouth, she was ruthlessly hit by Xiao Jin Feng, and her entire body staggered and nearly fell to the ground!

"Xiao Jingfeng! Stop right there! " Xiao Yin saw everything within his heart as he looked at the pale-faced Duan Mu Yan. If he were to leave, who would this child need to be taken care of?

Hearing Xiao Yin's angry shout, Xiao Jin Feng stopped his steps, turned around, and looked straight at Xiao Yin! His eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.

"Apologize to Mu Yan!" Xiao Yin walked to Duan Mu Yan's side as he coldly stared at Xiao Jin Feng. He didn't understand how his own son had become so unreasonable! For Shi Rou, Shi Rou had already been dead for more than half a month. Even if he were to vent her anger now, it should be sufficient for him! What was Mu Yan's mistake?!

"No, but I can!" Xiao Jin Feng's black eyes emitted a piercing cold light as he pursed his lips and looked at Duan Mu Yan with hatred! Ever since she had married into the Xiao family, bad things had happened one after another! He hated it! He hated that Zhang Qingguo's complexion for having such a sorrowful expression. From this, it could be known that she was not the only one injured within the Xiao family!

"Xiao Jingfeng! I'll say it one last time! Apologize to Mu Yan! " Xiao Yin clenched his fists tightly. He loved his son, but he could not allow him to bully Duan Mu Yan like this!

Without a word, Xiao Lingfeng used his actions to prove his position! Seeing how stubborn Xiao Jingfeng was, Xiao Yin finally couldn't help but personally teach this unfilial son a lesson! At this moment, Duan Mu Yan hurriedly turned around and knelt in front of Xiao Yin!

"Father... Royal Father ordered Father to guard the borders and it was indeed a little inappropriate, but Mu Yan did not have enough strength. Mu Yan and Jin Feng are the same, so Father was worried for Father's safety … " When Duan Mu Yan saw this, she hurriedly changed the topic. She knew Xiao Jin Feng's anger and knew how much he cared for her, but she didn't want to hurt their relationship because of her!

"Mu Yan, get up quickly!" Xiao Yin felt heartache for this daughter-in-law of his!

"Housekeeper Zhou!" Go get your family rules! " Lifting Duan Mu Yan up, Xiao Yan glanced at Housekeeper Zhou who was at the side and said indifferently!

"Father …" Just as Duan Muyan was about to plead for mercy, she was stopped by Xiao Budian!

To one side, Su Jin Xiu had seen everything. She didn't even need to think to know that this imperial edict should be Duan Zitong's idea. If she activated Xiao Yin, Duan Mu Yan wouldn't be able to rely on her anymore, and at that time, it would be as easy as flipping her palm! It seemed that Duan Zitong was indeed a friend and not an enemy. Since they had the same goal, then that silver bill wasn't like she couldn't live without it!

Not long after, Su Jin Xiu saw Housekeeper Zhou take out a three feet long dragon staff and walk in front of Xiao Yin. She hurriedly took the opportunity to kneel in front of Xiao Yin with tears in her eyes.

Su Jin Xiu kneeled down in front of Xiao Yin. Tears welled up in her eyes as if she was about to fall.

"I beg the old king to spare the Qi King!" "The Qi King didn't do it on purpose …" Her gentle voice carried a humble request. Su Jinhua would always make him show her weakness at the most forceful moment!

"Embroidery!" What are you doing! Get up! "I did it on purpose …" With a stride, Xiao Jin Feng pulled Su Jin Xiu back, and with a cold and fierce look in his eyes, he shot towards Duan Mu Yan!

"Prince …" Su Jin Xiu looked at Xiao Jin Feng with tears in her eyes. Even though Xiao Jin Feng's hand was hurting, her heart was enjoying this moment of contact!

Hearing this, Xiao Yin frowned but ignored Xiao Jin Feng and passed the three-foot-long Dragon Staff in Housekeeper Zhou's hands to Duan Mu Yan!

"Father …" Duan Mu Yan looked at Xiao Yin in astonishment, and did not know what to do for a moment!

"Mu Yan, this is the symbol of the Xiao manor's power. The one holding the Dragon Staff is the owner of the Xiao manor! If anyone is disrespectful to you, you can do whatever you want with them! No matter who! Now, I will pass on this Dragon Staff to you! Promise me one thing! " Xiao Yin worriedly looked at Duan Mu Yan. This was all he could do for this child …!

"This Dragon Staff..." Mu Yan cannot stand it … " Duan Moyan was overwhelmed by the favor she received as she looked at the dragon staff that Xiao Yin handed over. However, she was unwilling to extend her hand! She understood Xiao Yin's painstaking efforts and was naturally moved!

"Promise me you'll take care of yourself!" Royal father knows very well what kind of child you are. I'll let you marry Li Feng … "I've wronged you …" Xiao Yin's eyes dimmed. Although what happened back then had nothing to do with him, if he were to tell the Emperor the truth, perhaps Imperial Consort Li, Mu Yan and the First Prince would not end up as they were now! With guilt and love in his heart, Xiao Yin passed the Dragon Staff into Duan Mu Yan's hands!

"Being able to marry into the Xiao Palace is Mu Yan's fortune … "Mu Yan doesn't feel wronged …" Tears welled up in her eyes as they dripped down. They were tears of gratitude due to being moved. The love Xiao Yin had given her caused her heart to feel warmth.

"Silly child! What are you crying for! Accompanying father for a breakfast, I still don't know when we'll be able to eat together next … " Xiao Yin pulled Duan Mu Yan around Xiao Jin Feng and headed towards the main hall!

At the same time, an indescribable jealousy slowly brewed in his heart. He did not understand why his father did not pass the Dragon Staff to Shi Rou when Shi Rou was still alive! However, this Duan Moyan had only been married to a prince's mansion for less than a month, and yet she had already obtained the Dragon Staff! At this moment, Duan Moyan was more like the biological daughter of her father, whereas she herself had become an insignificant person! Duan Mu Yan … Why should she?!

Her deep and dark black eyes were as sharp as blades, and her sinister gaze shot towards Duan Mu Yan's back. Xiao Jin Feng clenched his fists tightly. However, in the next second, he heard Su Jin Xiu's low voice.

"Ugh …" Su Jin Xiu cowered as she stared at Xiao Jin Feng holding her hand tightly. A look of helplessness and weakness appeared on her face that made people's hearts ache for her!

"I'm sorry …" There was no warmth in Xiao Jin Ge's voice as he released Su Jin Xiu's hand and returned to his room!

Looking at Xiao Jin Feng's ruthless silhouette, Su Jin Xiu pursed her cherry lips as a sinister gaze shot towards Duan Mu Yan from the depths of her eyes.

After eating his breakfast, Xiao Yin tidied up everything and left the Xiao manor. This trip would take him a few months or at most a year. Xiao Yin watched worriedly as Duan Mu Yan walked him out and couldn't help but sigh in his heart!

As she looked at Xiao Yin's departing background, the rims of Duan Mu Yan's eyes became moist!

"Esteemed wangfei, the old prince has left. Let's go back!" Qiu Yue carefully supported Duan Moyan as she turned around and walked back to her estate. However, the moment she turned around and saw Xiao Jin Feng's background, her heart froze.

The news of Xiao Yin being sent to guard the border had quickly reached Xiao Yuxuan's ears. He didn't understand why the Emperor didn't choose him or his older brother and let his old father go on an expedition. This was completely illogical!

"The honored tutor wishes to seek an audience with royal father?" Just as Xiao Yuxuan was about to walk out of the Tutor Hall, he met with the astute Duan Zitong!

"Yuxuan greets the princess!" A clear voice came from Xiao Yuxuan's lips. As he watched Duan Zitong slowly walk in, Xiao Yuxuan pondered whether this matter was related to her!

"The Imperial Tutor is too polite. There's no need for the Imperial Tutor to be polite in front of the catalpa. I believe the Imperial Tutor should know about the news of Old Prince Xiao guarding the border now?" Even if Duan Zitong knew the answer, Xiao Yuxuan would definitely ask her father to retract his order and let him take Xiao Yin's place. Only then did she convince her father to transfer Xiao Yin away; he definitely wouldn't let Xiao Yuxuan spoil the good news! Besides, how could she bear to see Xiao Yuxuan fall into the killing fields?

"That's right!" "Yuxuan wanted to see the emperor. Father is already old, so it's not easy for him to lead troops. In comparison, Yuxuan should be a much more suitable candidate …" Xiao Yuxuan's clear eyes drooped slightly as he spoke in a light tone.

Duan Zitong's charming eyes flashed as she approached Xiao Yuxuan!

"Please rest assured, Imperial Tutor. This time, when Prince Xiao goes on the expedition, he will definitely be safe and sound. In fact, although the Northern Yue is ready to make his move, it's not enough to hit a stone with an egg. Father sent the elder, Prince Xiao, to attack the northern barbarians with all his might.

"Even so, I still want to …" A trace of melancholy appeared between Xiao Yuxuan's brows and her watery eyes darkened. Suddenly, Duan Mu Yan's figure flashed in her mind. Now that her royal father had left the Xiao manor, no matter what kind of outrageous actions Xiao Jingfeng would take, no one would care about him! Mu Yan's Day … Xiao Yu Xuan didn't dare to think further.

"It's better for Tutor to think about how to record the remaining half of the song, 'Butterfly Love Flower', and how to teach Zipu Tong how to play the flute properly …" Duan Zitong's beautiful eyebrows twitched as she looked at the butterfly love flower on the table. She couldn't help but frown!

"Yes …" Xiao Yuxuan didn't refute him, but in his heart, he was thinking about Duan Mu Yan. It had already been five days! He must think of a way to leave the Imperial Palace to meet Mu Yan. Before that, he must first ascertain Duan Jingyang's safety!

Duan Zitong had calculated Xiao Yuxuan's thoughts. Her eyes rippled like the waves as her jade-like hands wrapped around the jade handkerchief. She slowly approached Xiao Yuxuan!

"There's no need for the Imperial Tutor to worry about Elder Prince Xiao. Since Zitong was able to say that Elder Prince Xiao would be safe and sound, then he has complete confidence. Not only that, but he used all his words in front of Imperial Father, which is why Imperial Father agreed to Zitong's request. From today onwards, the Imperial Tutor can enter and leave the Tin Tin Pavilion at any time, but not for too long …"

"Really?" A trace of pleasant surprise flashed through Xiao Yuxuan's clear eyes as he happily looked at Duan Zitong. His thin lips were slightly pursed, revealing his unmatched elegance!

Duan Zitong couldn't help being shocked. Such an elegant and refined man was something that was hard to come by. To be able to obtain his care and care, he must be truly blessed.

"Princess …" Under Xiao Yuxuan's gentle call, Duan Zitong came back to her senses and couldn't help but cough twice!

"Cough …" "Of course it's true. I, Duan Zitong, promised you that I would do something …" As she spoke, Duan Zitong's jade-like hand had already landed on Xiao Yuxuan's shoulder!

"Yuxuan thanks the princess for her consent …" Xiao Yuxuan turned around, cleverly avoiding Duan Mu Yan's hand, and respectfully bowed! He didn't care about what purpose Duan Zitong had in helping him for the time being. At the very least, he could go see Duan Jingyang and understand her situation! When he saw Mu Yan again like this, he would have an explanation!

Just as Xiao Yuxuan was about to turn around and walk out of the Tutor Hall, Duan Zitong was the first to reach the door. His cherry lips slightly curved upwards as his charming eyes became like silk.
