After returning from a victorious battle, the female general Li Chang'an is proposed to by the Regent within days! "General! It's bad! The Regent has blocked our gates with betrothal gi...
In order to avoid escalating the conflict further, Li Chang'an ultimately chose to quietly step in and smooth things over.
"You're such a grown man, why are you arguing with a child? He took your plate, didn't he? Here, my plate is still unused, take it."
After saying that, Li Chang'an generously placed the plate in front of him in front of Feng Beichuan.
This finally calmed Feng Beichuan down, and the fire in his heart was easily extinguished by Li Chang'an's words.
"snort!"
Even so, he couldn't help but smirk arrogantly before accepting what he considered Li Chang'an's gesture of goodwill.
Li Chang'an seemed to have figured it out this time. She seemed to have guessed Feng Beichuan's little scheme, so she continued to play along and said calmly, "Are these dishes not to the Regent's liking?"
Immediately, Li Chang'an actually reached out and put a piece of meat on his plate, saying, "This steamed pork with rice flour is a dish from Vice General Sun's hometown, and he made it himself. You should try it; you can't get this anywhere else."
This time, Feng Beichuan was completely appeased.
Not only was his hair completely smoothed out, but the feeling he had now was... well, it was even better than the steamed pork on the plate.
So much so that he completely ignored Li Changsheng's criticism of his actions.
"The Regent is such a stingy man, humph!"
Seeing that the other party was actually eating with great satisfaction, Li Changsheng felt even more depressed.
"It's really good, fatty but not greasy, it's really delicious."
After Feng Beichuan finished chewing and swallowing the food in his mouth, he gave a kind and appreciative evaluation.
The stark contrast between the two left everyone stunned, and they couldn't help but secretly admire the speed at which this person could change his attitude.
Li Chang'an still had a faint smile on her face, and then she calmly replied, "I'm glad you like it. If it's delicious, then eat more."
After saying that, she raised her eyebrows slightly at Feng Beichuan, her eyes seemingly sparkling with thousands of stars in the sky, which was quite beautiful.
This trick worked perfectly. Feng Beichuan was overjoyed and transformed into a peacock ready to take flight.
"Hehe...actually, the best taste comes from the ones Your Highness personally serves!"
When people become complacent and lose their sense of self-importance, they tend to utter nonsensical remarks.
Fengbeichuan is currently in this situation.
After she finished speaking, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. As for Li Chang'an, the victim, she felt her scalp tingle and goosebumps all over her body.
But she was helpless about it and could only sigh silently in her heart: "Alas, I have to bear the consequences of my own actions!"
"Is the Regent Prince perhaps drunk? How could he speak so recklessly?"
Ye Lingxiao finally couldn't bear it any longer, so he replied in an unfriendly tone.
Feng Beichuan ignored this completely. If Ye Lingxiao hadn't seen the contemptuous glance he received, he would have suspected that Feng Beichuan hadn't heard him at all.
"Ahem, ahem, come on, everyone, let's continue eating! No talking while eating, no talking while sleeping..."
To prevent the order he had painstakingly maintained from being disrupted again, Li Chang'an had no choice but to bite the bullet and stand at the forefront once more, acting as a peacemaker.
A perfectly good meal ended in an awkward atmosphere.
By the time everyone had finished packing up, it was already quite late.
Li Chang'an originally planned to wash up and rest, but unexpectedly, he was pestered by an annoying person again.
"Chang'an, where am I staying tonight?"
At this moment, Feng Beichuan was like a tail, relentlessly chasing after Li Chang'an, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake him off.
"There are so many rooms, just choose whichever you like!"
Li Chang'an couldn't help but frown, and said somewhat impatiently, "My head is just buzzing."
"Where should I choose? All the guest rooms are already occupied..."
Feng Beichuan persisted relentlessly.
Only then did Li Chang'an realize that things were different now. Although this villa was not small, it housed so many soldiers that all available resources had been used up.
There should have been two empty rooms, but now that Li Changsheng and Ye Lingxiao have joined, there is no room for Feng Beichuan.
"If it doesn't work out, you can stay at Chang Sheng's place for the night."
After a moment's thought, Li Chang'an offered the most reasonable solution.
However, this method did not seem to satisfy Feng Beichuan. Upon hearing this, he immediately retorted, "Sleeping in the same bed with that brat? I wouldn't do it! What if he grinds his teeth in the middle of the night, or talks in his sleep, or... wets the bed?"
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an was speechless. However, he noticed that although Feng Beichuan said this, he did not seem troubled at all about the possibility of having nowhere to stay. Instead, he saw a hint of cunning in Feng Beichuan's eyes.
"So what do you want to do?"
In the end, Li Chang'an was too lazy to waste any more words with Feng Beichuan. She immediately put her hands on her hips, her face full of impatience, and handed over the decision-making power.
Upon hearing this, Feng Beichuan was immediately delighted, but then feigned a reserved demeanor and reluctantly said, "I think your place is quite spacious. How about I stay here for the night..."
Now Li Chang'an finally understood the other party's true thoughts. However, she was neither angry nor in a hurry to refuse. Instead, her eyes flashed and she said, "Okay, if you don't mind, I don't mind."
Upon hearing this, Feng Beichuan was immediately stunned. He could hardly believe his ears and even doubted whether he had misheard.
He originally thought that he would have to plead with Li Chang'an to comply with his wishes, but he didn't expect the other party to agree so quickly.
Could there be a trap involved?
Upon further reflection, another concern arose in Feng Beichuan's mind.
But after careful consideration, he finally convinced himself to put those concerns aside.
If it's a trap, so be it. Even if it's a pit of fire, I'm happy to jump in anyway.
After silently comforting himself, Feng Beichuan nodded and smiled, "Of course not, I was afraid of causing trouble for Your Highness."
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an did not reply. Instead, he gave a meaningful smile and then walked to his room on his own.
