After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 183: Return

"Commander Yuan, I am so sorry to have made you worry."

Xu Jiu never imagined that just a short time after leaving the princess's residence would prompt them to send so many people to search for him, which shows how much they value him.

At this moment, Xu Jiu felt a warm feeling in her heart. Yuan Zheng only glanced at Xu Jiu and did not say much, but asked Xu Jiu if she was injured or something.

"Commander Yuan, no."

Under Yuan Zheng's guidance, Xu Jiu had already followed Yuan Zheng back to the princess's residence.

This matter naturally alarmed everyone in the palace, including the ministers in the court. They were all surprised that the princess had escaped from her residence, and the princess's residence had sent so many people to search for her, making such a fuss.

"This shows just how much Her Highness values ​​this princess from the neighboring country."

They all understood that if the neighboring princess was injured in the princess's residence, it would be the responsibility of the eldest princess. Perhaps it was for these reasons that the eldest princess took it so seriously.

However, the Prime Minister and Xin Ruyu now truly understand that the reason they are doing this is simply to guard against someone attempting to assassinate the neighboring country's princess again, or perhaps...

At this moment, Xin Ruyu and the Prime Minister met in the market. Xin Ruyu looked the Prime Minister up and down.

The Prime Minister did not actually have a good impression of Xin Ruyu.

Although the person in front of him was indeed a prince, this princely status was of no help to the prime minister, so the prime minister had no goodwill towards this prince.

Gan Luo has been resting quite well these past few days.

Gan Luozai thought about it carefully and decided to go back tomorrow. Staying outside all the time was not a good idea. He was also quite curious to know if anything had happened in the princess's mansion, or if everything was just normal. At this time, Lin Fengmian had already prepared the meal.

Gan Luo looked at the simple food on the table and ate it with relish. Having been used to delicacies, he found the simple food incredibly delicious.

"Your cooking skills are getting better and better."

Gan Luo couldn't help but praise Lin Fengmian, who was naturally a little embarrassed. Lin Fengmian simply nodded slightly, and then Gan Luo decided to make lotus leaf chicken for Lin Fengmian.

After all, Gan Luo had seen these servants in the small kitchen before, and he still remembered the steps.

Gan Luo took out a whole chicken, washed it by the stream, sprinkled it with seasonings, and then threw it into the fire to roast. Unexpectedly, the chicken was roasted by Gan Luo to a very…

It seems that Gan Luo was not good at cooking. Gan Luo could go to the battlefield and enter the court, but he just couldn't cook.

"It is perfectly normal for Your Highness, being of noble birth, not to be able to cook. There is no need to dwell on this matter."

“I’ve already told you, you don’t need to call me Your Highness here, you can just say ‘you’ or ‘me’.”

At this moment, Gan Luo turned his attention to the black jade pendant at Lin Fengmian's waist.

Lin Fengmian followed Gan Luo's gaze and looked over. Unexpectedly, Gan Luo's attention was drawn to the jade pendant at his waist. Lin Fengmian then took off the jade pendant and handed it to Gan Luo.

Gan Luo was startled in that instant. He looked at Lin Fengmian seriously and couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Lin Fengmian afraid that I will destroy the jade pendant?"

"If you want to destroy it, then destroy it."

This sudden remark surprised even Gan Luo. He had never imagined that Lin Fengmian would say something like this...

After examining the jade pendant closely, Zhu Zi was certain that it was not something an ordinary commoner could possess. Moreover, the material of the jade pendant was something Gan Luo had never heard of or seen before.

Have you ever thought about your parents?

Lin Fengmian didn't know how to answer Gan Luo. At this moment, Lin Fengmian's eyes were dim. Gan Luo noticed this and couldn't help but ask, "I have thought about it, but for me, it's just wishful thinking. Why bother caring so much about it?"

For some reason, Gan Luo felt a pang of heartache at that moment. After all, Lin Fengmian was very young and had been taken in by the leader of the Shadow Hall, where he began all sorts of training.

But Gan Luo was different. Born into royalty, Gan Luo was always arrogant and powerful, and no one ever mistreated him.

The important thing is that Gan Luo arrived last, and with his superior martial arts skills, no one dared to bully him. If they did bully Gan Luo, there would only be one consequence: death.

Initially, Gan Luo did not actually have military power over the National Protection Army. She only gained it later, after all, Gan Luo had made everyone submit to her charms.

Although Gan Luo sometimes didn't want military power, he thought of his younger brother. If he had all the power, he would definitely be manipulated by others.

Gan Luo naturally never considered returning the military power.

She believed that the ministers in the court were definitely eyeing the military power with covetous intent.

If they cause trouble in the court again, wouldn't it be incredibly difficult for Gan Luo to take them back then? Gan Luo isn't stupid; how could he not understand the pros and cons?

Although Gan Luo had burned the whole chicken, Lin Fengmian was eating it with relish. Gan Luo, seeing Lin Fengmian's expression, wondered if the chicken was really that delicious.

Afterwards, Gan Luo tore off a small piece of meat and hid it. As soon as he put it in his mouth, Gan Luo actually felt like spitting it out.

"You should throw this chicken away. I still don't have the skills to cook it."

"I thought the chicken that Her Highness made was quite delicious."

She had only one thought in her mind: beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

This muscle is clearly too tough, and more importantly, it's a bit salty, yet Lin Fengmian insists on saying it's delicious.

It has to be said that Lin Fengmian is really a bit stupid. Why is that?

"Having been through so much, why is it still like this..."

Lin Fengmian told Gan Luo that as long as Gan Luo was happy, that was all that mattered.

For Lin Fengmian, perhaps he would only act this way in front of Gan Luo; he would never show such a demeanor in front of others.

A strange look flashed across Lin Fengmian's eyes.
