Chapter 17

After his buttocks were temporarily safe, Gu Yanling relaxed again. He was always like this and didn't care about food or beatings.

"Master, Li Youfu is so abominable, you must help me teach him a lesson!"

While tying up her bag, Gu Yanling complained to Xiao Xinghan, wanting to see if she could influence his opinion.

Xiao Xinghan said indifferently, "He is just doing his job impartially."

Gu Yanling didn't get what she wanted to hear, but she didn't care. She just thought that Xiao Xinghan was being fair and just because he hadn't had sex with her yet. Once he became Xiao Xinghan's male favorite and bewitched him, then whatever he said would be the final word!

I think it would be more feasible to sacrifice some male beauty!

Seeing the other party's excited expression, Xiao Xinghan thought he was probably thinking about something else, so he simply ignored it and said to himself, "If you're fine, leave."

Gu Yanling also didn't want to stay in the same room with Xiao Xinghan all the time. What if the other party lost control again? He was not ready either mentally or physically, so it was better to stay away from him.

"Then I'll go back first. If the young master misses me, just send someone to call me!"

Xiao Xinghan: "..."

Gu Yanling quickly left with her bag. After leaving the front hall and walking to the yard, she first glanced at Li Youfu, snorted heavily to express her dissatisfaction, and then said to Chang Feng with a smile as if changing her face: "Brother Chang Feng, don't worry about me. Look, I'm fine!"

Li Youfu: "I am also doing my duty. This is not directed at you."

Even if Gu Yanling was thick-skinned, he had lost all his dignity today, so he naturally didn't give him a good face and ignored him. "Brother Chang Feng, are you free? I want to talk to you."

Chang Feng nodded: "I'll take you back."

Li Youfu waited until the two of them left the courtyard before going to the front hall. Now it was his turn to feel uneasy. "Your Highness."

Xiao Xinghan was playing chess: "Don't worry about him from now on."

Li Youfu responded quickly, and was shocked. He could see what the boy was thinking. How could he not see it considering His Highness was such a person? But now the other party brought back such a bunch of messy things, and His Highness didn't feel offended at all. When he thought of the hidden possibilities, Li Youfu broke out in a cold sweat.

Walk to the corridor.

Gu Yanling: "Brother Chang Feng, I have made up my mind and plan to follow the young master."

Chang Feng was not surprised: "Is it because of what happened today?"

"You know everything?" Gu Yanling was very surprised. He had wanted to keep this a secret, but he never thought he knew it. He hurriedly explained, "I had no choice. I wanted to show off my bravery in front of the young master. Then, because of this life-saving grace, the young master would not target me again—"

Chang Feng's expression changed drastically: "What did you say?"

Gu Yanling had never seen him look so stern before. She swallowed and said, "Don't you know everything?"

Chang Feng looked around, his face heavy as he pulled Gu Yanling's arm, and they were silent all the way. When they returned to the house, Gu Yanling was still a little confused to see Chang Feng had locked the door from the inside.

"You are just being ridiculous!"

Gu Yanling was a little depressed. Why did he speak so quickly? "I, you, you don't know?"

Chang Feng: "Did you find those people today?"

"Of course not! They are just a group of bad guys. I just got the news that they would appear there today to collect tolls..." Gu Yanling glanced at Chang Feng's face and saw that it was getting worse because of his words, and she couldn't help feeling guilty.

"The young master has forgiven me and will not pursue this matter any further."

Chang Feng really didn't expect that Gu Yanling could cause such a big trouble. What is the status of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? He is the future heir to the throne. If this matter is known by someone with ulterior motives, it would be a serious crime punishable by the extermination of all nine generations of his family. Ten heads would not be enough to take off. Now that His Royal Highness has taken a fancy to Gu Yanling, it is no big deal if she causes some minor troubles. However, living with the king is like living with a tiger. When the love is strong, everything is fine, but what about when he is no longer favored?

"Yuanbao, you really didn't take my words to heart."

Gu Yanling: "I remember, you said not to lie in front of the young master, and I told you the truth."

Chang Feng: "I also told you to be cautious around the young master and remember not to act rashly. Did you listen?"

Gu Yanling: "I thought twice before doing this, so it's not too reckless, right?"

Chang Feng felt that if he didn't say something more serious, he wouldn't take it to heart: "Yuanbao, the young master's status is not ordinary, not the young master of an ordinary family. You must remember to never do these things again in the future. There is no more than three times the limit. Otherwise, it will cause a disaster in the future and no one can save you."

Gu Yanling thought that he was an official appointed by the imperial court, and his position was higher than that of the prefect of Yangzhou. He had known about the big shot coming from the capital for a long time.

Chang Feng: "Now the young master likes you, and he can forgive all your mistakes, but with the young master's status, there will always be a day when you fall out of favor. What will you do then?"

Although this statement was cruel, it was an indisputable fact. The current emperor had many concubines in his harem. How many of them were favored at first but later fell out of favor? Moreover, Gu Yanling was a man. Our dynasty had no precedent for taking male concubines. When His Royal Highness returned to the palace, he would have to be kept in the mansion in the capital. His Royal Highness would choose a concubine sooner or later. If Gu Yanling had been more honest and well-behaved, it would have been fine, but he was a troublemaker.

Gu Yanling's focus was: "Young Master really hasn't married yet?"

Chang Feng: "...It's only a matter of time."

Gu Yanling: "He's a homosexual. Is he marrying a wife just for show?"

Chang Feng saw that he was so outspoken, and all his earnest advice was in vain. "If you are not afraid of losing your head, just say it."

Gu Yanling covered her mouth and muttered, "I won't say anything more."

Chang Feng: "You should keep today's incident to yourself and don't tell anyone."

Gu Yanling looked at his serious expression and said, "I know. I didn't even tell you at first. I know my limits."

Chang Feng: "From now on, if you behave yourself and follow the young master honestly, you will be rich and powerful."

Even if he didn't follow Xiao Xinghan, he would still be rich. His family is one of the richest businessmen in Yangzhou City, otherwise he would not be suppressed everywhere by the prefect's brother-in-law.

Besides, he's not doing it for wealth.

Gu Yanling knew that Chang Feng was sincere in his love for her, so she assured him, "I understand. You don't have to worry about me. I will behave myself from now on and just serve the young master well!"

Chang Feng: "This kind of thing must never happen again."

Gu Yanling: "No, I really won't do that. I'm going to obey the young master and I won't cause any more trouble!"

Chang Feng knew that he had originally wanted to save money to marry a wife, and that everything he did today was a compromise. He tried to comfort him, saying, "Young Master is handsome. You, you won't suffer any loss if you follow him."

Gu Yanling was afraid of the ferocious hawk that Xiao Xinghanyue boasted about: "Brother Chang Feng, I'll be honest with you. If the young master was in his thirties or forties, or if he wasn't so handsome, I wouldn't sacrifice myself to follow him even if you beat me to death."

Chang Feng: “…”

How many noble ladies in the capital dream of marrying the talented and virtuous Crown Prince? But in Gu Yanling's mouth, he becomes an unwilling sacrifice. If he wasn't so handsome... Little Heidan really has no self-awareness at all.

After leaving Gu Yanling, Chang Feng went to the residence of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Li Youfu came in and reported, "Your Highness, Commander Chang wants to see you."

Xiao Xinghan had finished a game of chess and said, "Let him in."

Chang Feng came in and looked at Li Youfu. Li Youfu saw this and said to Xiao Xinghan, "I'll wait outside."

After Li Youfu left, Chang Feng bowed and said, "Your Highness."

Xiao Xinghan didn't even raise his head: "Play the next round with me."

Chang Feng was quite self-aware of his chess skills, so he decided not to embarrass himself. "My chess skills are not very good, so I'd better not show off. I heard that Yuanbao is pretty good at chess. If Your Highness wants to play chess, you can ask him to accompany you."

Xiao Xinghan: "His chess skills are not bad. Let's listen to what he says."

Chang Feng: "..." From what His Highness said, it seemed that Yuanbao was bragging again.

Xiao Xinghan: "Tell me, what do you want from me? Is it for the ingots again?"

Chang Feng knelt down on one knee and said, "I just learned from Yuanbao what happened today. Yuanbao said that Your Highness has let it go and forgiven him. I think Your Highness should not be too indulgent with Yuanbao's temper. He should still punish him if necessary."

Xiao Xinghan laughed meaningfully upon hearing this, threw the chess piece into the jade jar, turned around and sat facing Chang Feng, "You are worried about him."

Chang Feng: "Yuan Bao treats his subordinates as his brothers."

Xiao Xinghan: "What else did he say to you?"

Chang Feng wanted to say a few good words for Yuan Bao: "He told his subordinates that he would behave himself and never get into trouble again, and would only focus on serving the young master."

Xiao Xinghan thought about Gu Yanling's outspoken nature, and thought that she must have told Chang Feng everything she knew. Otherwise, Chang Feng would never care about such things. However, he scoffed at the idea of ​​staying quiet and not getting into trouble, "What a deep brotherly love."

Chang Feng, now brainwashed by Gu Yanling, only thought that His Highness loved him very much. When he heard this, he immediately thought wrongly, thinking that His Highness was jealous and that he was getting too close to him. He explained: "I also only regard Yuanbao as my younger brother."

Xiao Xinghan understood the meaning of this and scolded him, "Don't hang out with him all the time in the future."

As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." Even the commander of the East Palace guards has lost his mind after being with that guy for too long.

Chang Feng misunderstood what he said and was shocked. It seemed that His Highness really liked Yuanbao too much and couldn't bear to see him get too close to other men!
