Chapter 266: A Battle of Wits with the Little Kid
Zhao Yongchang actually dodged Lin Xiaoyue's hand and asked angrily, "Are you really going to throw me out and let them kill me?"
Lin Xiaoyue didn't expect that she was misunderstood, so she simply followed his words and said, "If you listen to me, I won't throw it away!"
Zhao Yongchang obviously hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, I'll go with you!"
Lin Xiaoyue finally breathed a sigh of relief. If she couldn't handle it anymore, she would have to use drugs!
"Let's go quickly, it's not safe outside now!" Lin Xiaoyue urged Zhao Yongchang to go back.
Zhao Yongchang looked unhappy, but he still turned around and went back obediently.
This time, Zhao Yongchang did not run away again. He followed Lin Xiaoyue into the tent.
Lin Xiaoyue bent down and whispered, "Keep your voice down. There's someone sleeping here. She's a bit grumpy when she wakes up. If anyone wakes her up, they'll be in big trouble!"
Zhao Yongchang sniffed and snorted softly, "Don't scare the kid! I don't believe it! With so much noise outside, this guy can still sleep. I wonder if you've taken some kind of drug."
Lin Xiaoyue was afraid of waking Chen Yunyun, so she pulled Zhao Yongchang to the other side of the tent to chat. "You're really good at guessing. What kind of medicine do you think I used?"
Zhao Yongchang propped up his chin with his hand and thought for a moment before saying, "Knockout drug!"
Lin Xiaoyue rolled her eyes and said, "You guessed wrong. I didn't do anything. It was just that this sister was too tired from cooking for everyone every day, so she fell asleep while lying down. Then tell me, why do you dislike Liang Jingyao so much?"
Zhao Yongchang crossed his arms and said proudly, "Which eye of yours saw that I don't like you? I don't like you either!"
Lin Xiaoyue pointed to her left and right eyes and said, "I saw both of them! You and your father have been kneeling on the ground for two days, right? You weren't even given food or water. You must hate Liang Jingyao to death! Tell the truth, I'll give you something delicious to eat!"
Zhao Yongchang said with a cold face: "No, don't talk nonsense and sow discord!"
Lin Xiaoyue clicked her tongue, stood up and walked to the cupboard, pretending to take out something delicious. At the same time, she took out a plate of osmanthus cake from the space.
"Hey, this is osmanthus cake. If you tell the truth, it's yours!" Lin Xiaoyue shook the osmanthus cake in front of Zhao Yongchang.
Zhao Yongchang was indeed very hungry. He swallowed instinctively, then shook his head and said, "I won't eat it. Who knows what kind of poison you put in it?"
Lin Xiaoyue sighed deeply in her heart. This child is really stubborn. No matter what she asked, he wouldn't say anything!
"It's up to you if you don't want to eat it. I'm just hungry. Wow! It's so delicious!" Lin Xiaoyue picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and started eating it with relish.
Zhao Yongchang looked at Lin Xiaoyue eating with relish in front of him, and he felt even hungrier!
"Gurgle..." Finally, Zhao Yongchang's stomach made a protesting sound of dissatisfaction.
Lin Xiaoyue chuckled and picked up the second piece of osmanthus cake and put it in her mouth. "I like this osmanthus cake the most. It's sweet and sticky, and has a pleasant fragrance. I never get tired of eating it!"
Zhao Yongchang turned his back with a dark face. He had already cursed Lin Xiaoyue a hundred and eight times in his heart!
But Lin Xiaoyue didn't intend to let Zhao Yongchang go just like that. She took out a roast chicken from the space. This was a gift from her godfather. She couldn't bear to eat it so she kept it in the space. Anyway, the space could keep it fresh and she could take it out whenever she wanted to eat it.
"Wow, the roast chicken is so delicious that my tongue is about to fall off! Zhao Yongchang, are you sure you don't want a piece?" Lin Xiaoyue deliberately moved closer to Zhao Yongchang. She didn't believe that a little brat could have such strong willpower.
Zhao Yongchang originally didn't think about eating and could still control himself, but when Lin Xiaoyue stood in front of him with a chicken leg and ate it, his saliva came out of his throat like crazy. If he didn't swallow it, the saliva would flow out from the corners of his mouth.
"Bad woman, get out of here!" Zhao Yongchang wiped his saliva and cursed embarrassedly.
Lin Xiaoyue stood there calmly, with no intention of leaving.
"If you let me go, I'll leave. Wouldn't that be embarrassing? There's still half a roast chicken on the table that I haven't taken a bite of. As long as you tell the truth, I can give you both the roast chicken and the osmanthus cake. I can also give you a place to shelter from the wind and rain. How about that?"
Zhao Yongchang's eyes flickered, and it was obvious that he was a little moved!
"You, how can you guarantee that you didn't lie to me? If I tell it, you will drive us away instead?" Zhao Yongchang asked defensively.
Lin Xiaoyue shrugged and said, "Do you think you still have a choice? There has to be someone to mediate the conflict between your Zhao family and Liang Jingyao, right? Besides, your grandfather should have mentioned it at home. Emperor Liang has been defeated by us many times. This time, your grandfather asked you to come to Liang Jingyao for help because he thought that Emperor Liang would be driven from the throne sooner or later."
As the eldest grandson, Zhao Yongchang has always grown up by the side of Grand Tutor Zhao. No matter what happens, Grand Tutor Zhao will never avoid Zhao Yongchang, so Zhao Yongchang certainly knows these things. Therefore, he is also deeply worried about the future of the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
"I know my grandfather did something wrong, but my father had already come to Liang Jingyao in such a humble way to beg for mercy. He still treated my father like this. It was too humiliating, so I don't like Liang Jingyao. I went to your father's tent to cause trouble out of revenge. I have said everything, I hope you can keep your promise!"
Lin Xiaoyue was amused by Zhao Yongchang's words and asked, "Do you know what the northern border is like? It's freezing cold, and even wearing a thick coat and boots can freeze your toes off. The environment is much worse than kneeling on the ground! But Prince Rong lives there every day, and he has health problems. If you were his son, wouldn't you feel uncomfortable?"
Zhao Yongchang turned his head awkwardly and said, "It's already happened. We can't keep dwelling on it, right? My father and I came here not just to seek refuge, but also to reconcile."
Lin Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows and said meaningfully, "You hope that Liang Jingyao can preserve the glory of your Grand Tutor's Mansion in the future, right?"
Zhao Yongchang was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head with a grim expression and said, "Isn't this normal? Which family doesn't want to prosper forever?"
Lin Xiaoyue nodded and said, "You're right. It seems that Grand Tutor Zhao has taught you a lot. It's a pity that Grand Tutor Zhao forgot to teach you how to ask for favors. Zhao Yongchang, you are not the grandson of the Grand Tutor's Mansion here. No one will flatter you. Even if you fart, some people will think it smells good!"
Zhao Yongchang's chubby little face turned red, and he didn't utter a word for a long time. Finally, he burst into tears with a "wow"!
