Zhen Wan bumped into the carriage, not saying a word. She closed her eyes to prevent her tears from flowing. The days were still long, Cao Xian's hypocritical mask had not been torn apart by her personally. First Madam had not been overturned by her, and there were still many people waiting for her …

If the outcome of everything in her previous life could not be changed, then wouldn't she have to marry into the Imperial Palace and become the Empress? No, she didn't want to.

After returning home, the first thing she did was to visit Jiang Straight Wife's son.

The young crown prince was not yet two years old and had only just begun to speak. He was still wobbling when he saw Zhen Wan and called out to her in a childish voice, "Ah'jie."

"The son of the crown prince is named Fang Fan, but what's his nickname?" Zhen Wan asked the wet nurse.

"Reporting to Third Miss, Fifth Young Master's name sounds good. I hope that Young Master will be safe and sound." The nurse answered politely.

Zhen Wan smiled and took out some crushed silver from her sleeve and handed it to the nurse. "You know how to talk," she said. In the future, you have to put in more effort to take care of little young master. If there's even the slightest bit of mishap, you won't be able to escape responsibility, understand? "

"I understand, I understand." The wet nurse took the silver and nodded, "Third Miss doesn't need to worry. This servant knows my identity and won't let anyone use me. I also won't go and harm the crown prince."

Within a few days, the entire Zhen Mansion had set out with Cao Wen Di to hunt. Since Fifth Young Master Zhen Fangfan had died when he was born, he had to follow First Madam, the official wife of Zhen Wuji, Shangguan Wu.

Although Straight Wife's title was Straight Wife, it was actually a sort of title, but she was actually a concubine. Thus, even though Zhen Wan was the direct descendant, she was actually born from a concubine.

Cao Wendi brought his subjects to hunt in the river, and the ladies rested in another beautiful village.

Zhen Wan looked at the beautiful scenery and thought of Monk Qing. She was unhappy and walked around. Unexpectedly, she had broken into the beast forest and lost her way.

She pushed aside the obstructing branches and leaves in front of her. A few cranes flew out from nowhere, causing her to retreat in fright. However, she accidentally fell into a trap and injured her foot, making it hard for her to move a single step. She finally got out of the trap with great difficulty, but when she turned around, she unexpectedly bumped into the cute puppy by the riverside on the day of the Beggar Festival. It seemed to be injured as it lay there motionlessly, letting out a low growl.

She struggled a few steps forward and picked up the puppy. The dog's snow-white fur was originally very cute, but now it was very dirty. She smoothed the fur of the dog and hobbled along with it in her arms, trying to walk back.

Zhen Wan couldn't remember being injured here in her previous life. Could this be the calamity of this life? She also had no impression of this forest at all …

All of a sudden, a colorful tiger scuttled out, ferociously staring at Zhen Wan as it blocked her way.

Zhen Wan was only startled for a moment before regaining her composure. When she saw a tiger, if she turned around and ran away in fear, she would only end up dead in the mouth of the tiger. She tossed the puppy behind her and calmly looked into the tiger's eyes.

The tiger roared and pounced towards Zhen Wan. In the nick of time, an arrow shot straight into the tiger's heart, saving Zhen Wan.

Zhen Wan turned around and saw a man walking slowly towards her from behind five trees. The man was wearing a clogs made of silk and carrying a few arrows on his shoulder. His delicate features made him look like a scholar who couldn't hold a weapon.

"Thank you, young master, for saving me." Zhen Wan looked at them from top to bottom, then forcefully saluted and expressed her gratitude.

The man didn't answer. He walked up and picked up the tiger he had shot before, put it on his shoulder, then said, "This lady is a girl. She doesn't know any martial arts, nor does she have any defensive weapons.

Zhen Wan was stunned and didn't know what to answer. The man threw a dagger to her and continued, "Which official's daughter is this lady? I still want to hunt here. Why don't you let this pigeon take you back?"

As he spoke, a pure white pigeon flew over and circled around the man three times before landing on his shoulder.

"My surname is Wang Zhen and my surname is Wang. Thank you again, Young Noble." Zhen Wan put away the dagger, picked up the puppy and replied.

The man gently caressed the white pigeon on his shoulder and said a few words that Zhen Wan couldn't understand at all. Perhaps it was in the beast language, but the white pigeon left the man and circled around him before flying away. The man said goodbye to Zhen Wan courteously, but Zhen Wan's good impression of him was completely gone because of his last courtesy.

Polite and hypocritical. He thought it would be different from Cao Xian, Cao Xian had saved her and even left her a fake name. Although he didn't leave his surname, he was still very gentle and refined, probably not a true gentleman. Zhen Wan thought.
