"Have you driven her away yet? Not only that, but I, an old general over fifty years old, was actually tricked by a little girl who hasn't even grown all her hair yet."
Hearing this, General Wu felt calmer. As expected, wanting to do something that was impossible for him to do would only make things difficult for himself.
The calmer he got, the angrier Ye Chouxiu grew. He slammed his hands on the table, making a rustling sound. "Old Wu, what's wrong with the Emperor? Back when he was campaigning across the land, he was only a teenager, yet he already possessed all sorts of courage and bravery. Facing a massive enemy force, he wasn't afraid at all. How could he be so doting on his daughter now? Today, he was on the verge of succeeding and abducting her, but I didn't expect the Emperor to give him the golden medal of immunity from death."
"Also, the emperor is already nearly thirty years old, yet he's still acting so recklessly. He even disappeared and was captured by the Yuan people, sneaking away in the middle of the night. Doesn't he know that he and the people of the country are connected to him? This is simply ridiculous!"
He has confidants all around him, and now Zhou Beichen's life and death are unknown, and there is another burden. General Ye's heart is beating fast. If it were not for the interests of his family and country, he would rather quit.
But he was worried about leaving these kids here.
General Wu looked at him and thought for a moment before saying, "You may not know this, but I heard that the Emperor once gave the Imperial Sword to Princess Chang'an, allowing her to defeat the tyrant emperor and behead treacherous ministers. As far as I know, she executed the corrupt Governor Li when she was only ten years old."
Ye Chouxiu touched his beard with a look of disbelief. The next moment, he quickly understood. Of course he knew about this matter. Now when he heard it again, Ye Chouxiu's chest heaved so much that his beard almost flew all over the sky.
"She...she, she's gone too far. It's simply too far. If my daughter were like this, I would definitely lock her up in her boudoir and never let her out for the rest of her life."
General Ye had previously lamented that he had raised a careless daughter, which had led to such a huge disaster. Now, if things continued to develop like Zhou Zhaonuan, one day, she might cause Zhou Beichen a disaster even bigger than what happened to his daughter. Then, he would see if Zhou Beichen would regret it.
General Wu stepped forward and tried to persuade them.
"Alright, alright, Old Ye, let the children handle their own affairs. We are old and can't understand their thoughts. Not to mention that the Emperor has made almost no mistakes in his decisions over the years, let's talk about Princess Chang'an. She was raised in Qianyuan Palace since she was a child. Even her martial arts and archery were almost all taught by the Emperor himself. Tell me, how bad can she be?"
"...But, she is a girl after all. Even if she has incredible abilities, she can't act so recklessly. A woman going to the battlefield is simply a joke. Could it be that there are no more men in our dynasty? Are there no more princes?"
General Ye thought about it carefully and found that the truth was just as General Wu said, but he just refused to acknowledge Zhou Zhaonuan.
