After the milk ball arrived, the father who had no heirs had a string of good luck.

That's quite a strong statement.

Situ Qiang cried so hard she could barely breathe, but she dared not cry out loud; it was incredibly painful for her.

The Crown Prince's face turned ashen. He rose and knelt down, cursing Situ Qiang, that fool, over and over in his heart: "Father, I have failed to educate my daughter properly, causing you worry. It is all my fault. But it takes two to tango, and in the end, Zhao Hua should not have laid a hand on her."

Even Prince Chen couldn't hold back anymore. He knew the Crown Prince was shameless, but he didn't expect him to be this shameless: "So, does that mean your daughter should push people? It takes two to tango. I'll slap your daughter and see if it makes a sound!"

The crown prince gritted his teeth: "Third brother, what nonsense are you spouting?"

Isn't it chaotic enough already?

"Do you think I wanted to say this? Tan'er is my life. If anything happens to him, how will you compensate me? The Crown Prince can't even manage his own daughter, how can he govern the world?"

If the Crown Prince had apologized properly and admitted his mistake, he wouldn't be so angry.

But now that things have gone wrong, all they do is shirk responsibility and try to drag others down with them.

At this moment, Prince Chen felt truly sorrowful, sorrowful for his own son and for the fate of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Situ Qiang was most afraid of this Third Imperial Uncle, so she really didn't dare to cry anymore. Her face turned pale and she knelt on the ground, wishing she didn't exist.

The crown prince's expression changed drastically, and he hurried to see the emperor!

The emperor's face was somber, revealing neither his joy nor anger.

The study fell into a suffocating silence!

Just then, Tang Rui kowtowed three times to the emperor.

Boom boom boom!

Not a single word is false.

When he looked up again, the little boy's forehead was red, and tears were welling up in his eyes, which he tried hard to hold back.

"Grandpa, I was also at fault today, and I even implicated my cousin Tan. I feel truly terrible about it. I will go to my Third Uncle's residence tomorrow to apologize to my cousin Tan. I only beg you, Grandpa, not to be angry. If you harm your health, wouldn't I become a sinner for all eternity?"

The emperor's expression softened.

Prince Chen glanced at the Crown Prince and deliberately said to Situ Che, "You really know how to raise children."

Regardless of who is right or wrong in today's incident, the most important thing is that his child has been hurt!

The Crown Prince and Situ Qiang completely missed the point; in the end, they simply didn't take their son seriously.

Tang Rui, on the other hand, had a proper attitude and admitted her mistakes.

Situ Che felt a little guilty, but smiled faintly and said, "Third Imperial Brother, you flatter me."

The emperor said coldly, "Situ Qiang is to be confined to her quarters for three months and punished by copying the Classic of Filial Piety one hundred times, without having it done by anyone else. As for Zhaohua..."

Speaking of Zhaohua, the emperor paused, his eyes softening: "I'll punish you by making you go to your cousin Tan's house tomorrow to apologize! As for the kneeling ceremony, you'll be exempted from it from now on."

The little dumpling is kneeling and kowtowing so earnestly; he's so sincere.

Don't bump your head.

Situ Qiang's face was deathly pale, and she was swaying precariously.

Resentment, jealousy, anger, and all sorts of negative emotions were about to overwhelm her.

"Yes, Zhaohua accepts the punishment. Thank you for your mercy, Grandfather." Tang Rui then bowed to Situ Tan like a little adult, "Cousin Tan, Zhaohua will come to apologize to you tomorrow!"

The children's attitude once again deepened the emperor's disappointment in Situ Qiang. He wearily waved his hand, "Disperse!"

The Crown Prince, indignant, glared at Situ Che and left with Situ Qiang.

Situ Che and Prince Chen also left with their children.

As they walked to the palace gate, Prince Chen pushed Situ Che forward, chatting occasionally, while the two children behind them chattered away.

Well... it was all Tang Rui chattering away. Situ Tan, despite his young age, was very refined and gentle, with a warm smile on his face, occasionally chiming in with a few words.

Situ Che exclaimed sincerely, "Tan'er is so young, yet he has such gentlemanly qualities; it's truly rare."

"It's all thanks to his mother's teachings, what a pity..." Prince Chen looked at his outstanding son, and thinking that he wouldn't live past twelve, he felt a pang of sorrow.

Situ Che looked at his legs, a hint of sadness in his eyes: "I wonder where exactly the Valley of Divine Healers is..."

Tang Rui, who was behind them, overheard her father's words and casually asked, "Father, are you looking for the Valley of Divine Healers?"

Situ Che remained silent, staring at his legs, his expression revealing his dejection.

Prince Chen smiled faintly and continued, "Yes! I've heard that the divine physician's medical skills are extraordinary, but he's too mysterious; very few people have seen him. Your father and your cousin Tan are both waiting for the divine physician to save their lives!"

"Even the legendary healer Tan Tang couldn't save him!"

Tang Rui's casual remark made the two adults and the child suddenly stop in their tracks and all turn to look at her.

Tang Rui belatedly realized she had spoken too quickly, so she quickly covered her mouth and took a step back, her eyes wide open!

Thinking of the master she had mentioned, Situ Che suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Tang Rui, your master is the miracle doctor, right?"

"No, Father, don't talk nonsense!" Tang Rui took another step back guiltily.

Got it!

He confessed without being asked!

Situ Che and Prince Chen exchanged a glance, then looked at Tang Rui together, their expressions instantly switching to the typical expression of a big bad wolf coaxing a little white rabbit.

Prince Chen knelt down in front of Tang Rui, suppressing his overwhelming joy and trying to keep his tone gentle: "Zhaohua, we didn't mean to offend the divine physician. We just want to ask him to save her life. Even if... even if you don't consider your cousin Tan, that's fine, since you just returned and aren't familiar with him yet. But... you can't ignore your father, can you? Your father is the God of War of Great Xia. He was born to gallop across the battlefield. Do you want to see your father confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life?"

Situ Che lowered his eyes and clenched his fists on his lap: "Zhaohua, I just want an answer. If the divine doctor says it can't be cured, I can give up."

Tang Rui: "..."

Got it!

It's pointless to keep pretending.

You're so sharp-tongued!

Why does my brain stop working properly after I become a child?

Tang Rui lowered her hand and said helplessly, "Father, Third Imperial Uncle, it's not that I don't want to tell you the location of Divine Healer Valley, but I only know the general area. Most importantly, Master has a very strange temper, especially disliking men and outsiders. Divine Healer Valley is surrounded by poisonous swamps and ferocious beasts, and there are traps and formations at the foot of the mountain. Going in is a dead end. Unless the people in the valley come out on their own, no one else can enter."

Prince Chen quickly said, "Since you've already said he's your master, does that mean you can't get in either?"

Tang Rui spread her little hands: "I was born in the Valley of Divine Healers. My senior brother brought me here to find my father. As for poisonous creatures and ferocious beasts, they are all Master's pets and they know me, so they won't hurt me. But Master didn't teach me about mechanisms and formations. So, unless Master or my senior brother comes to find me, I can't go back by myself."

Upon hearing this, Prince Chen's expression darkened.

Situ Che smiled bitterly, "It seems there's really nothing I can do about my leg."

Tang Rui then said, "No, that's not true. Although my medical skills aren't great, I know poisons and Gu techniques. Father, I can actually help you take a look."

Situ Che was taken aback: "Are you sure you can do it?"

Tang Rui chuckled: "I'll give it a try. If I can't do it, then I'll just have to wait for my master or senior brother to come find me. They can't ignore me forever."

Situ Che: "..." I always feel like you're unreliable!

Prince Chen's hope was rekindled: "What about Tan'er? Zhaohua, can you take a look at him?"
