Luoyang Palace, Princess Tan Yunshu's courtyard.

"Cousin, Fang Jue is obedient in the palace, and he didn't cause trouble to the palace." Yang Yuting is very natural in front of Tan Yunshu, and obviously has no identity constraints.

"Fang Jue is not bad, he is really talented, and he was rewarded by the emperor with the crown prince Taibao, and he was also named the captain of Zhaowu to assist the prince in training the new army." Tan Yunshu smiled, and Fang Jue was very satisfied.

Feng Prince Taibao, it is a matter of celebration, the key is to let Fang Jue train the new army, Yang Yuting naturally knows that Fang Jue has a few catties and a few taels, except for eating, drinking and having fun, he can say nothing. Fang Yan has been restless in Jiangning County since he knew this time, and he knew his son too well, so he asked the second lady Yang Yuting to go to the capital in person.

"Alas!" Yang Yuting sighed.

"Why is Yuting sighing so much?"

"My cousin doesn't know, my husband and I are most worried about this matter, Fang Jue has never practiced the art of war, and he has never even been to the barracks, where do he know how to train the new army. If he is allowed to come nonsense, I am afraid that the emperor will blame him and affect the Fang Mansion. Yang Yuting was blunt.

"Yu Ting is too worried, Fang Jue has been training the new army for a few days, and I haven't heard anything bad about him," Tan Yunshu continued. "How long will Yu Ting stay this time?"

"Just stay for a few days, mainly for Fang Jue's business."

"Oh, you've been to Sima's Mansion? Xuan'er is okay. Tan Yunshu said. Xuan'er is also pitiful, living alone in a huge mansion, and you are the only one left in the world. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Yuting's eyes were ruddy, this is a secret in Fangfu, except for her and the dialect, only the personal maid Juan'er knows. "Xuan'er has also grown up and has his own ideas, but I'm not worried."

The Xuan'er in Yang Yuting's mouth, whose full name is Sima Xuan, is sixteen years old this year, and was born to Yang Yuting and her ex-husband Sima Chen. Soon after Yang Yuting gave birth to Sima Xuan, Yang Yuting's ex-husband Sima Chen unfortunately died violently, so Sima Xuan followed his grandfather to live in Sima Mansion. And Yang Yuting finally married Fang Yan, and wanted Sima Xuan to change his surname to Fang many times, but was opposed by Sima Chen's father. Until five years ago, Sima Xuan's grandfather died, and Sima Xuan was alone in Sima Mansion. Yang Yuting discussed with Fang Yan, and wanted to take Sima Xuan to Fang's mansion, but seeing Fang Jue so vicious, she threatened that her stepmothers were not allowed to have any more children, otherwise they would be killed. Yang Yuting was frightened by Fang Jue, how could she want her biological son to be in danger, so she didn't give up. Every year, Yang Yuting will take time to come to the capital to accompany her biological son Sima Xuan, in the name of taking care of the business in the capital.

"What are your plans for the future?" Tan Yunshu said with concern.

"Xuan'er likes to practice martial arts, and has mentioned to me several times that she wants to join the army. I didn't want him to join the army, but his temper was the same as that of his dead father, and he didn't listen to any persuasion. ”

Yang Yuting was a little sad, in today's troubled times, who wants his son to join the army.

Speaking of this, Tan Yunshu also looked sad, remembering that her daughter is almost eighteen years old this year, and she likes to dance with knives and guns all day long, which is not a good thing to go on like this.

"It's hard for Xuan'er, I haven't had a father since I was a child, Xuan'er has this ambition, it's not necessarily a bad thing, if I have the opportunity, I beg the prince to put Xuan'er in the army to experience and experience, so that he knows the hardships of the military camp."

"Yuting thanked her cousin, that's all."

"Yuting will rest in the palace tonight, and I will call someone to prepare." Tan Yunshu said and waved, and a maid was ordered to leave.

"Cousin, no, I want to go see Xuan'er tonight." Yang Yuting was a little embarrassed.

How could Tan Yunshu not understand, after all, they were mother and son who had not seen each other for a long time, and they had not been retained.

"Madam, aren't we going to see Young Master Fang Jue?" The maid asked Yang Yuting.

"It's not getting early, so let's go another day." Yang Yuting said as she walked towards the gate of the palace.

"Oh..."Juan'er was a little disappointed, her expression was resentful, she hadn't seen Fang Jue for a long time, she thought she could see Fang Jue at night, but she was vetoed by Yang Yuting.

The horse-drawn carriage drove slowly through the bustling street market and into the quiet alleys. Behind Yang Yuting's carriage, she followed a person from a distance, this person was very strong, it was Fang Jue's subordinate Xiao Yue. Although Xiao Yue was ordered by Fang Yan to protect Fang Jue, he had already recognized Fang Jue as the master during the time he had followed Fang Jue, so he would carry out Fang Jue's orders, even if Yang Yuting was the most powerful lady in Fang Mansion.

There was a sound of slamming the door, and soon the door of Sima Mansion opened, and an old servant came out. Seeing that it was Yang Yuting, he invited Yang Yuting very respectfully.

"Young Master Xuan is practicing swords in the back garden, madam, please wait a moment, I will go and ask the young master to come and see you."

"No need, you go get busy, I'll go find Xuan'er myself." After Yang Yuting finished speaking, she walked towards the back garden of Sima Mansion, and the maid Juan'er followed closely.

Sou...

"Ahh

A spear stabbed straight in the direction of Yang Yuting and the maid Juan'er, making Juan'er scream in fright. Yang Yuting stopped very calmly.

"Juan'er, you are still so timid, but your mother is still powerful, and you are not afraid of danger." A teenager put away his spear and stomped heavily on the ground, the barrel of which hummed.

Under the moonlight, the young man's head was tied with a silver crown, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his fine facial features, and his excessively fair face showed a childish smile. He is Yang Yuting's son Sima Xuan, and his appearance is becoming more and more like Sima Chen back then.

"Mother, why are you here?" Sima Xuan looked at Yang Yuting with a happy face.

"Why, the mother needs to share the time to see her son!" Yang Yuting took out a handkerchief to wipe the beads of sweat on Sima Xuan's forehead.

"Of course not, Xuan'er also misses her mother, and hopes that her mother will come this time, so she won't go back so soon, okay? Otherwise, if you leave Xuan'er alone in the house, Xuan'er will be bored. Sima Xuan pulled Yang Yuting's sleeve with some grievances.

"Okay, I'll just stay a few more days, I want to spin too." Yang Yuting stroked Sima Xuan's cheek, this face was too similar to Sima Chen back then, Yang Yuting suddenly felt a heartache.

"Who?"

Sima Xuan suddenly noticed that there was movement on the roof in the distance, and at night, the eaves were walking on the wall, which was obviously not a good type. Sima Xuan immediately raised his spear and struck into the distance with all his might.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the black shadow hurriedly dodged away and disappeared outside Sima's mansion.

"Xuan'er, don't chase it, this person's identity is unknown, don't be reckless." Yang Yuting hurriedly called Sima Xuan.

Sima Xuan was young, so he had good marksmanship and excellent arm strength, but unfortunately he didn't have enough experience. It's no wonder that he has no father since he was a child, and he was raised in Sima Mansion and had little contact with the outside world. But because of this, Sima Xuan could only practice such superb marksmanship with a spear as a companion.

"Juan'er, you go get some water and let the young master wash his face." Yang Yuting deliberately broke away from Juan'er, and then pulled Sima Xuan towards the room.

Juan'er watched the two leave with some displeasure. "Hmph, there is only one young master in Juan'er's heart."
