Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

She leapt onto the bed in one bound, stretched her limbs comfortably, and murmured to herself, "Oh my, there's nothing like my own bed!" Saying this, she hugged the soft quilt tightly and rolled over on the bed.

Just as Qianqian was playing happily, Yan Shuang'er strolled into the room leisurely. Seeing this, she couldn't help but shake her head with a light laugh and said softly, "Qianqian, remember to wash up before getting into bed."

Qianqian, originally immersed in joy, immediately sat up straight upon hearing this and nodded obediently in reply, "I know, San Jie."

Immediately after, she called loudly for the yatou Mantou to bring hot water and began washing up seriously. After a busy spell, Qianqian finally tidied herself up, climbed back onto the bed, and soon fell into a deep sleep, entering sweet dreams.

At this moment, the entire An Wangfu was silent, with only the breeze gently brushing the leaves in the courtyard, making soft rustling sounds. Meanwhile, at the distant yizhan, the two people who had worked hard all day were also lying on their beds, sleeping soundly with satisfied smiles on their faces.

At this moment, in the large room, only Yan Si was curled up alone on that small bed. He hugged the quilt tightly, as if it were his only warmth and reliance. Faint moonlight shone through the window onto him, casting his slightly lonely and desolate figure.

Early the next morning, sunlight softly shone into An Wangfu. An Wangfei knew Qianqian had been tired yesterday and felt full of pity, so she specially instructed everyone not to disturb her too early. After An Wangfei finished breakfast, she then summoned her tie shen yatou Chunxi and asked her to go to Wufangyuan to check if Yan Si and Qianqian had gotten up.

Chunxi received the order and left, arriving at Wufangyuan shortly after. When she entered the garden, she saw at a glance that Yan Shuang'er had already woken up and was stretching her body outside the courtyard, exercising her muscles and bones.

On the other hand, Qianqian was still immersed in sweet dreams, showing no sign of waking. So Chunxi tiptoed away, afraid of disturbing the person inside. Before leaving, she didn't forget to carefully instruct Mantou, who was responsible for serving Qianqian: "After Fifth Miss wakes up, remember to send someone immediately to report to the Wangfei." Mantou nodded repeatedly in agreement, saying she would definitely do so.

Time passed second by second, and Yan Shuang'er had finished exercising, her stomach starting to growl. Just then, Yan Qianqian's lazy voice of having just woken up suddenly came from inside the room. Only to see Qianqian stretching lazily while shouting loudly, "Comfortable~ ah~ really don't want to get up!"

After speaking, she rolled around on the bed hugging the quilt like a naughty little cat, refusing to open her eyes. Yan Shuang'er heard the sounds from inside the room and couldn't help but smile slightly, walking toward the room. Pushing open the door, what came into view was exactly Qianqian's cute and playful appearance.

Yan Shuang'er had a smile on her lips, stepped forward lightly, and asked softly, "Did you sleep well?" Qianqian, sitting on the bed, heard the voice and quickly replied, "Super good! I feel full of strength all over."

After hearing this, Yan Shuang'er couldn't help but laugh, reached out and lightly patted Qianqian's buttocks, saying, "If that's the case, then get up quickly. I'm so hungry my front chest is stuck to my back, and Mother has urged us several times already. We still need to go out shopping for a while."

Qianqian heard she could go out and play, her eyes lit up instantly, like two twinkling stars. She leapt up from the bed like a carp and shouted excitedly, "I'm getting up right now!"

Before her voice fell, Mantou, who had been waiting outside the door, walked into the room holding a basin of clear water with both hands, stepping lightly, coming to the bedside to prepare to wash up for Qianqian. At the same time, Yan Shuang'er instructed the servants in an orderly manner to bring up the sumptuous breakfast, and specially sent a servant to the Wangfei's place to inform her that they would go over after finishing breakfast.

In a short while, after Qianqian tidied up, she walked out of the room and saw at a glance that Yan Shuang'er had already sat elegantly at the table, with various fragrant breakfast items spread on the table.

The two enjoyed breakfast happily, then walked together toward the courtyard where the Wangfei was. Along the way, Qianqian looked forward to the upcoming shopping trip with great joy. However, unexpectedly, before they reached the entrance of the Wangfei's courtyard, a figure suddenly appeared, blocking their way.

The person was Yue Yi. She looked at Qianqian expressionlessly and said, "Xiao Zhuzhu, the training you owe is about time to make up~" Hearing this, Qianqian's brilliant smile froze on her face, replaced by a bitter melon face. She looked pitifully at Yan Shuang'er and begged, "San Jie, you and Mother go, I need to hurry to training...",

Yan Shuang'er knew Qianqian had important matters, so she didn't stop her and went alone to the courtyard where the Wangfei was. At this moment, Qianqian suddenly thought of the assassin matter in her mind, she quickly turned to ask Yue Yi beside her: "Yue Yi, where is Father now?" Yue Yi respectfully replied: "Replying to Miss, Wangye is currently in the shufang."

Qianqian, after hearing this, thought for a moment and said: "Then let's continue training after waiting a while, I need to go find Father first to ask about the assassin matter." Yue Yi understood, knowing this matter was of great importance, so she closely followed behind Qianqian, walking together toward the shufang.

Arriving at the door of the shufang, Qianqian raised her hand and gently knocked on the door. A steady and powerful male voice came from inside the room: "Come in."

After receiving permission, Qianqian pushed open the door without hesitation and walked in. An Wang saw that the visitor was actually Qianqian, and showed no surprise on his face, because Qianqian was always a frequent visitor to his shufang.

Only to see Qianqian, as usual, walked into the room boldly, then plopped down on the chair, and asked directly: "Father, I heard you encountered an assassination on your return journey this time, is there such a thing?" An Wang nodded slightly, indicating it was true.

Qianqian immediately asked further: "Then does Father know where these assassins came from?" An Wang pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "According to this king's guess, they should be people sent by the Crown Prince of Xishang."

Qianqian showed a look of doubt and asked puzzledly: "How did Father know? Is there any evidence?" An Wang shook his head and explained: "These assassins did not carry anything to prove their identity, it was just inferred based on various signs."
