"Uncle, a servant has run away over there. Have someone follow him."
Uncle?!
Upon hearing this, the Grand Commander glanced at the young man. His sharply defined profile and imposing presence made the Grand Commander hesitant to look him in the eye.
uncle? !
The family of Duke Zhongwu was small, with only one older sister, so the person who could call Duke Zhongwu his uncle was...
The Grand Commander's pupils dilated sharply, and he stared at the young man before him with a look of fear and shock.
He simply couldn't reconcile the imposing young man before him with the gentle and refined boy he had seen from afar at a palace banquet.
While the Grand Commander was still in a daze, Duke Zhongwu, upon hearing this, immediately straightened up and looked in the direction Huo Chengche was looking. Then, with a gesture, he quickly led his men to chase after them.
Huo Chengche whistled, not loudly, but loud enough for Xuandi to hear.
He then followed them.
Hearing the whistle while holding his younger sister, Xuandi nodded to Huo Chengche from a distance.
He wasn't in a hurry to follow, but instead strolled leisurely to the servant boy, squatted down, placed the little boy in front of him, tapped him on the head with his folding fan, and sneered coldly, "So, are you satisfied with this bloodshed? Now, are you still leaving the city?"
The servant was so frightened by the tiger that he trembled like a leaf. He looked at the two people in front of him in terror, shaking his head and repeatedly crying out, "Spare me! Spare me!"
Even at this point, he still couldn't resist adding a threatening remark at the end, "I...I'm from Princess Linhuang's household, I was on a mission for her! Please, please let me go, I promise I won't pursue this! I promise I won't pursue this!"
Xuan Di was truly amused by the servant's last words. His smile widened, but his eyes suddenly turned cold. "The Eldest Princess? Ha."
Just as the servant looked at Xuan Di with fear and confusion, the latter let out a cold laugh, stood up, and as he walked across the battle area, he tapped the tiger's butt with his folding fan and coldly ordered, "Keep an eye on them all, don't let a single one escape."
There's a saying: "Don't touch a tiger's backside."
The terrified crowd trembled at the sight. Where did this teenager come from? He was truly fearless, daring to slap a tiger's tail! This tiger would probably tear him apart at any moment.
To everyone's surprise, the fierce tiger, after being slapped on the rump, showed no anger whatsoever. Instead, it trembled weakly and let out a soft "woof," its tone so docile that it resembled a spineless dog.
To everyone's astonishment, the young man calmly carried the baby on his horse and rode away, leaving behind a group of people who were both surprised and frightened: the soldiers, the servants of Princess Linhuang's mansion, and a commander who was watching this scene in a daze from a distance.
As Xuandi passed by him, he snapped his fingers near his ear, startling him and bringing him back to his senses.
"You, you..." The Grand Commander was still in shock at the fact that the person he had just met was actually His Highness the Crown Prince. Now, seeing the young man who had patted the tiger's backside walk by, he was unsure of his identity, but his fear remained.
"Commander-in-Chief, thoroughly inspect the 'goods' these people are carrying. They're now your responsibility to settle them."
Xuandi left a message for the bewildered commander-in-chief and rode off.
