The young master didn't say anything, but just stared at Han Xiao's eyes seriously. He wanted to know whether Han Xiao was lying to him.
But after looking for a long time, the young master threw himself on Han Xiao in frustration. He couldn't see anything. He wondered if his husband would think he was stupid.
Holding the young master's shoulders, Han Xiao smiled and continued, "I was wrong this time, but I had no choice. Look, Mom and Dad didn't come out last night. If I didn't let you fall asleep, Ruanruan would definitely not listen, right..."
The young master didn't want to admit it, so he opened his mouth and bit Han Xiao's shoulder hard.
To Han Xiao, the young master's bite was just tickling him, and it didn't hurt at all.
Even if the young master doesn't want to admit it, the truth will be as Han Xiao said. If he is sober again, he will definitely not be able to help but go out, and then he may cause trouble for Han Xiao.
Thinking of this, the young master wanted to cry. He even wanted to ask Han Xiao if he was a burden.
Han Xiao knew what the young master was thinking from his expression: "Ruanruan is the most important person to me. No matter what the circumstances, you must protect yourself first, okay? We, Ruanruan, have never been a burden, but the source of happiness for all of us..."
The young master couldn't help pouting as Han Xiao held his face in his hands. Hearing Han Xiao say that, the young master couldn't help but feel happy and whispered, "Really?"
"Of course, look, His Majesty and the Third Prince, not to mention them, even the old monk in Guoan Temple likes you so much, as well as grandpa and the others. Ruanruan doesn't need to be that powerful, you just need to stay with us." Han Xiao said seriously.
Apart from anything else, Han Xiao always felt that his Ruanruan had won the script of being the group's favorite, otherwise how could so many big guys like him.
It may be because the young master is his biological father, but most of all it is because the young master has a good personality and is simple, kind and cute, which is why so many people like him and protect him.
So Ruanruan has never been a burden, but his little baby.
After hearing this, the young master's face flushed red. He held Han Xiao's uninjured hand and said, "I also hope to protect my husband in the future and prevent him from going to such a dangerous place again."
Han Xiao smiled gently, "Ruanruan will have many more things to protect me from now on."
Han Xiao was not making this up. After this incident, Chu Jinglin might be immediately made the crown prince when he returned to the palace.
Now that the fifth prince has secretly led troops, his possibility of inheriting the throne has basically been cut off. Needless to say, the second prince has been taken into custody and imprisoned.
If the emperor still had some regard for the father-son relationship, he might be able to survive, otherwise the second prince's life would be in danger.
Royal families have always been ruthless since ancient times, so it is hard to say what will happen to the second prince, and this is not something Han Xiao cares about.
He just needs to take good care of the young master.
When Chu Jinglin succeeds to the throne, the young master will become a proper prince, and Han Xiao, the "son-in-law", will have to make a living under the young master.
Thinking of this, Han Xiao couldn't help but laugh.
The next morning, someone notified us to set off back to the palace. The way back was different from the way here, as the atmosphere was extremely relaxed.
In just a few days, most of the people were thrown into jail.
As an important official of the court, Han Mingyuan is not on the same side as the second prince, so he has now officially entered the emperor's sight.
Now he was busy, and on the way back, Han Xiao didn't meet Han Mingyuan many times.
During this period, Chu Jinglin also came to see Han Xiao once. When he came, he specially brought the arm crossbow given by Han Xiao. This arm crossbow helped him a lot.
When he came, he wanted to ask Han Xiao for a few more crossbows. After seeing this "advanced" weapon, Chu Jinglin's mind became active.
Han Xiao was so annoyed that he simply threw the problem to General Huo. Since he was back now, he might as well go to General Huo and ask for it.
After Chu Jinglin got a satisfactory result, he chatted with the young master for a few more words before leaving.
After returning to the Han family, Han Xiao felt that he was truly alive. The emperor did not deliberately conceal the fact that the second prince was plotting a rebellion.
So as soon as they returned to the capital, they heard the sensational version of the rebellion. Han Xiao was almost laughing to death after listening to Xing Yi's stories.
But he just treated it as a joke, and the emperor still had to decide the outcome of the matter.
But the emperor gave them all a surprise.
Needless to say, the second prince's fate was spared by the emperor, who spared his life out of the father-son relationship. However, he was stripped of his title of prince, demoted to a commoner, and exiled thousands of miles away.
The fifth prince was also temporarily detained, and no conclusion had been reached on how to deal with the emperor.
Hu Yansui is still hanging on to his last breath and is in a state of panic all day long. Not to mention Old Mo, who had a stroke after fainting last time. The imperial physician had no choice but to put him and Hu Yansui together.
Han Xiao didn't understand at first why the emperor and Chu Jinglin didn't execute Hu Yansui, but kept them imprisoned.
It was not until Hu Yansui's younger brother Hu Yanqu came to Beijing to ask to see the emperor that Han Xiao understood what was going on.
It turned out that Huyan Que had secretly gone to Beijing before Huyan Sui to find Chu Jinglin to seek cooperation, and traded twelve cities and a hundred-year ceasefire agreement to let the State of Jiang send troops to help him ascend the throne of Beidi.
After discussing with Chu Jinglin, the emperor felt that this was a good opportunity, so Huo Cheng decided to suppress the bandits.
In fact, Huo Cheng had secretly led his men to the Beidi border and robbed Beidi's hometown.
All the information about Hu Yansui was given to him by the emperor, so he didn't know even if his house was robbed.
As for their good uncle, he had already escaped without a trace under Huo Cheng's attack.
Huyan Que successfully ascended the throne, so when Han Xiao knew that Huyan Que was going to the capital, he was filled with emotion.
It turns out that Chu Jinglin did so many things in private.
After the young master knew about this, he couldn't even close his jaw, and his eyes looked at Chu Jinglin with much more eagerness.
After the matter between the second prince and Hu Yansui was resolved, the emperor made an unexpected decision.
Without any preparation, he issued an edict to abdicate to Chu Jinglin. Not only were the ministers confused, but Chu Jinglin was also extremely surprised.
He had known for a long time that the emperor would pass the throne to him, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Han Xiao was surprised for a moment, but then he understood what the emperor meant. The emperor did so much just to clear all obstacles for Chu Jinglin.
Now that the second prince is in exile and the fifth prince has been captured, nothing will stop Chu Jinglin from taking the throne.
