Upon hearing this, Lan Shanyang slapped Lan Linxue on the head and said fiercely, "How could I have given birth to such a bastard child like you, who is keeping me alive every day! Didn't you ever think about what would happen if I really got angry and passed the throne directly to someone else? Then all your efforts would be in vain! What if I, the Dragon Court, were to be furious and expel you from the royal family?"
Lan Linxue raised her head, looked quietly at Lan Shanyang, and asked in return, "Can you do it?"
Do you think I can't?
Lan Shanyang glared at her son, looking fierce.
Lan Linxue curled her lips indifferently, "If you really leave the entire empire to your spendthrift sons, what can I do? Go out and become a commoner! Anyway, this world is yours now, and if you don't want it, there's nothing I can do! Don't worry, even if I'm no longer in the royal family, I'll definitely live a good life! At least I'll live a worry-free life! Simple meals aren't so bad!"
Thinking about how her last meal in Yangzhou was just steamed buns and pickled vegetables, Lan Linxue didn't know how she felt.
Just thinking about Qin Kou'er's gentle, tearful gaze makes a corner of his heart ache with tenderness, yet it's also incredibly sweet.
So much time has passed, it seems that Kou'er should be heading to the capital soon, but I wonder how she is doing?
Lan Shanyang waited for Lan Linxue, feeling a bittersweet ache in her heart, a choked feeling that she couldn't swallow or spit out.
Lan Linxue, that little brat, has got him figured out perfectly. As long as the country remains in Lan Shanyang's hands, it will definitely not escape his grasp.
After glaring at her for a while, Lan Shanyang suddenly sighed and sat down next to Lan Linxue, looking somewhat dejected: "If I had known you would cause me so much worry, I would have insisted that your mother have another child back then! You're really infuriating me!"
When Lan Linxue saw his father's dejected appearance, he knew that he had definitely won this matter.
With a chuckle, Lan Linxue patted his father's shoulder with genuine sympathy and said with a smile, "Father, you should be glad. If you had another child, there would be another Lan Linxue. If the two of us started fighting, you would really be in trouble!"
"roll!"
Lan Shanyang slammed Lan Linxue's hand down hard.
Lan Linxue didn't care at all at this point. She chuckled and leaned over again, "Actually, in the end, this is still your problem! If you had nothing to do, why did you have so many sons? If I were the only one, none of this would have happened!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Shanyang immediately turned his head, his fierce gaze startling Lan Linxue.
"You don't know anything! Humph, your father has suffered so much because of you, you little beast! And you're still so useless, it's infuriating!"
As Lan Shanyang looked at Lan Linxue, he became angrier and angrier. Thinking about his own forbearance over the years, he was so angry that he wanted to eat someone alive.
Lan Shanyang stood up abruptly, feeling irritable and ready to leave.
Lan Linxue quickly grabbed him: "Don't go! You haven't said you'd let me out yet!"
Lan Shanyang turned and glared fiercely at her son's longing face. "What are you going out for? To cause trouble? You stay here and behave yourself!"
Seeing that things had returned to square one, Lan Linxue immediately rushed downstairs without saying a word, grabbed a stool, and tied the white gauze that hadn't been pulled down from the beam yet back into knots.
Hang yourself! You must hang yourself!
Enraged, Lan Shanyang kicked the stool over, causing Lan Linxue to fall to the ground.
"Are you never going to stop?"
Lan Linxue glared at her father with a determined look, as if she were about to hang herself, and asked, "Are you going to let me out or not?"
Lan Shanyang glared fiercely at her son, remaining silent for a long time.
"You won't let me out! This time I'll tell the truth! I'm going to see my mother right now! I'll tell everyone what happened, and you'll never dream of us again!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Shanyang's eyes widened instantly. He pointed at Lan Linxue, unable to utter a word.
After a long silence, he shouted at the people outside, "Guards! Take the Crown Prince back to the Crown Prince's Palace!"
Lan Linxue jumped up from the ground, looked at his father, and continued, "Give me back my people!"
"No way!" Lan Shanyang turned his head away, determined not to agree to these unreasonable demands.
"Then I'll kill all your people! Then I'll say it was your doing, that someone's eighty-year-old father and seventy-year-old mother, along with their young widow, all cried themselves to death at the palace gates. Then you'll be a tyrant for all time!"
Before Lan Linxue could finish speaking, Lan Shanyang raised his hand, grabbed the lamp from Table Mountain, and threw it at Lan Linxue.
Lan Linxue ducked and dodged it.
Seeing that he had missed, Lan Shanyang immediately went over himself. If he didn't give this little brat a good beating today, he wouldn't be Lan.
When Lan Linxue saw that her father was truly enraged, grabbing a handful of peacock feathers and charging at him, she instinctively started running around the house!
"Lan Linxue! You stop right there! If you move again, I'll break your legs!"
"You're only considered gone if you can stand still! I'm not that stupid!"
Immediately, chaos erupted in the house.
Lan Shanyang threw everything he could get his hands on, smashing it to pieces.
Lan Linxue hopped around like a monkey, refusing to let her father catch her!
Lan Qingtian and Quan Jing had been standing outside the door, listening intently for quite some time, when they heard a ping-pong sound coming from inside.
The two nodded to each other; the emperor was angry!
However, both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, because when the emperor got angry, it was basically the last step.
After the Emperor finished venting his anger, he was able to fulfill most of the Crown Prince's requests, and the matter was considered over!
