"A golden nugget? That's a fitting description! But you yourself said he's the golden nugget of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, so naturally the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion wouldn't want to send him to the palace to suffer." The emperor said dismissively.
"But I want Xie Chang'an to be my study companion," Ye Jingchen said.
"Why must we choose him?" the emperor asked with great interest.
"The Duke of Zhenguo is the God of War of Dayuan, who has protected the peace of the Northern Frontier for decades. He is the person I admire most in this world besides my father! As his eldest grandson, Xie Chang'an will surely inherit the Duke of Zhenguo's will in the future, gallop across the battlefield, and continue to protect the Northern Frontier. Such a loyal and capable general, I must keep him by my side from a young age!"

"For the Dowager Empress, who is always loyal to the emperor, patriotic, and deeply righteous, to submit such a memorial, it must be that Xie Chang'an's condition is extremely serious, and he is probably not going to make it." As if afraid that Ye Jingchen would not believe it, the emperor added.
