Even though he was just a child who was exchanged for someone else, it was still unavoidable that people were trying to spread rumors and deliberately discredit the Emperor of Shu.
"Okay, I understand." Chang'an said, "I can't let my father be left with an image of a grassland on his head."
"There's a grassland on your head!?" Bei Mingxuan wanted to tell Chang'an that she was overthinking it, really overthinking it. "There's no grassland on your father's head, and Bei Mingye was secretly replaced by someone. It's not what you think."
"I know." Chang'an explained, "There really is no grassland on Father's head. It's just that people from other countries think there is a large grassland on his head."
"..." Bei Mingxuan wondered why he felt his explanation wasn't convincing. "What I mean is, if Bei Mingye's identity were revealed, it would naturally be an admission of the laxity of the Shuzhou Imperial Palace, and would also make him a laughing stock for his countrymen. How could a great nation like ours tolerate those smaller nations making irresponsible remarks? To put it in a big way, this is a matter of national dignity, but to put it in a smaller way, it's also a sign of the royal family's incompetence."
"Um... well... you always think about the big picture." Chang'an said, "My prince is great, he has a far-sighted vision."
"Why do the compliments seem to be not so pleasant to the ear..."
Changan blinked, "Really? I'm seriously praising you."
"Okay." Bei Mingxuan smiled.
At this time, there were footsteps behind him. It was Bei Mingche and Lin Shangde.
At this time, Lin Shangde was holding a box in his hand.
Bei Mingxuan and Chang'an both looked at the box.
"Your Highness." Lin Shangde knelt respectfully in front of Bei Mingxuan, "This old minister's revenge has been avenged."
Bei Mingxuan glanced at Bei Mingche, then his gaze fell on Lin Shangde, "Hurry up and get up."
"Thank you, Prince Xuan."
"Now that we have avenged ourselves, let's go back." Bei Mingxuan said, taking out a house deed from his body and giving it to Lin Shangde.
Mrs. Lin looked over and was even more surprised.
The two old men looked at the house deed in their hands tremblingly. At this moment, they had thousands of words in their hearts, but they couldn't say them.
In the end it was just a thank you.
"As long as Prime Minister Lin is in the court, he should think more about our Shuzhou Kingdom and the people." After Bei Mingxuan finished speaking, he took Chang'an away.
At this time, Chang'an and Bei Mingxuan had both changed their appearance and looked so ordinary that they could not be seen in a crowd.
Compared to before, the two of them have much less striking looks.
The two of them were sitting in the busiest restaurant in the capital.
Passerby A: "Feng Shui turns around. Today it's your family's turn, tomorrow it's my family's turn."
Passerby B said, "Exactly. Look at Princess Xuan. She used to be an ugly freak who was bullied. Now, among the children of General Gu, Gu Changan has the most comfortable life."
Passerby A: "What do you know? That's Prince Xuan's ability."
"Wrong, wrong, wrong." Passerby B said, "Although Prince Xuan is a good person, all the blessings were brought to him by Gu Changan.
Gu Changan is the crown prince of the Southern Kingdom and has the Qilin military token in his hand.
You know, whoever gets the Qilin gets the world. So, look at Prince Xuan now. Didn’t your father give half of the military power to Prince Xuan?
Compared to before, Prince Xuan was just an ordinary prince, without any real power."
"Pooh!" A loud noise was heard. "My Ninth Uncle, you guys are actually allowed to discuss this?"
In a word, Bei Mingxuan and Chang'an in the distance looked at this person. If this person is not Bei Ming Yulan, Princess Lan, then who else could it be?
But why wear men's clothes?
Changan glanced at Bei Mingxuan in surprise, only to see him shaking his head. "Let's leave."
"Okay." Bei Mingxuan didn't want to cause any trouble, and Chang'an was already full.
Just as he reached the stairs, Bei Mingxuan saw a shadow coming towards him.
Subconsciously, he held Chang'an in his arms and slapped the man back.
Bei Mingxuan looked at Bei Ming Yulan who attacked him and asked, "Is there anything wrong, sir?"
"..." Bei Ming Yulan frowned, "You are not the Ninth Emperor..."
"Princess." The attendant beside him immediately said in a flattering tone, "It's just the back that looks similar. Princess, we have the wrong person."
Bei Ming Yulan's face was filled with anger and impatience, "Get lost!"
Bei Mingxuan's eyes showed no trace of disgust. In the end, he was too lazy to pay attention to Bei Ming Yulan and went downstairs with Chang'an.
"After I heard what Grandfather Emperor said, I immediately went to find Uncle Nine, but I was still a step too late." Bei Ming Yulan raged, her face full of grievance, tears in her eyes, "But I still didn't catch up."
"Princess, don't be angry." The servant beside him said kindly, "Why don't we keep looking? Who knows, we might find it."
"Nonsense! Hurry up and go."
At this moment, on the street, Chang'an looked at the man beside him with a smile in his eyes. Even though his appearance was no longer as perfect as before, his temperament could not be changed.
It was still so fascinating, "She is looking for you, I think she wants to go with you."
"Without the old man's permission, she can't leave the capital."
The old man naturally refers to the emperor.
Bei Ming Yulan was already married at that time, and her unwillingness had already made the emperor wary of her, so he naturally would not let her go so easily.
Now seeing that she is dressed in men's clothes and carrying a small bag, and the servant beside her is also dressed in men's clothes, it seems that she is going to leave with Bei Mingxuan.
"She's marrying far away from home. Do you want to interfere?" Chang'an asked. "It's also hard for a woman to marry far away."
"This is her life, and it's her responsibility." Bei Mingxuan pulled Chang'an, "She has no choice but to do it."
Chang'an was against such things. "But, that's a man's world. A woman shouldn't be made to bear such a consequence. What she said to the old man that day was right. The old man didn't have the ability to lose, but he wanted to exchange a woman's life for it. He lives like a turtle."
"..." He couldn't refute it, he knew she was right, "Let's put this matter aside for now, we can talk about it when we come back, there's still time."
"I know that intermarriage between countries is normal." Chang'an was feeling a little down, "...from now on...I will never give birth to a daughter..."
"!!!" Bei Mingxuan smiled helplessly. He knew her little thoughts. "Don't worry, as long as it's your child, whether it's a boy or a girl, they will stay by your side for the rest of their lives, unless they are willing. Otherwise, I will never force them."
"Yeah." Chang'an smiled with satisfaction, and the smile was so sweet as if he had eaten honey.
At the city gate.
He is from Beiming Yulan.
There were quite a few people there, and they were looking around. You could tell at a glance that they were looking for someone.
Bei Mingxuan and the people from Chang'an each rode a horse past them.
Just as we were leaving the city gate, we discovered that the emperor's men had quickly taken over the entire city gate.
