Lan Linxue immediately shook his head like a rattle drum. What a joke! This matter can't be said carelessly, otherwise, his father would beat him to death with sticks right in front of him.
"Father, I am feeling uneasy and have wronged you!"
"Stop flattering me now! What were you thinking when you first considered this possible outcome? You want to know everyone's secrets; I think I've spoiled you rotten!"
Thinking of this, Lan Shanyang angrily slapped Lan Linxue's bottom twice more.
Lan Linxue immediately screamed like a pig being slaughtered. With those two blows, there was no doubt her backside was about to be ripped open.
"Shut up! It's not your place to spout nonsense!"
Lan Linxue immediately shut her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes from the pain.
Seeing her son in so much pain, Lan Shanyang's anger subsided considerably. She threw down the stick and sat down beside him, still fuming.
Seeing her father throw away the stick, Lan Linxue struggled to look up at Lan Shanyang: "Father, I was wrong! I shouldn't have reopened your wounds. But I really didn't expect these people to be so heartless! They even dared to easily confuse the royal bloodline, so there's probably nothing they wouldn't dare to do!"
"You knew all along, yet you still asked?" Lan Shanyang glared at Lan Linxue, annoyed. "Do you know what kind of place this palace is? Even without wind, waves can rise three feet high. Now that you've exposed this matter, tell me, if it reaches Xu Ming and Hu Tianyong's ears, what will their reaction be?"
Lan Linxue thought for a moment, then raised her head and said two words: "Rebellion!"
"You knew that, yet you still went and caused this trouble?"
Lan Shanyang was truly exasperated with her son. No one could control him; his willful nature could kill anyone.
Lan Linxue thought for a moment and said, "Father, I have some plans for tomorrow, which are aimed at Hu Tianyong and Xu Ming. They will definitely not be able to escape my plans tomorrow! That's why I came tonight to ask about these matters."
Lan Shanyang glanced at Lan Linxue and said, "You've arranged things for the White Tiger Hall tomorrow?"
Lan Linxue's eyes widened immediately: "Father Emperor knows about this too?"
Lan Shanyang snorted: "If I miss even one thing about the world, you'll create a huge mess for me!"
Lan Linxue chuckled, lying on the ground and straining to look up at Lan Shanyang: "How was it? Father, did I arrange it well?"
Lan Shanyang immediately glared at Lan Linxue: "Good my ass! There's nothing good about arranging those things! So careless! Have you ever thought about how they would react if they had been caught and immediately realized they had been tricked?"
Lan Linxue blinked and thought for a moment, "Could they have rebelled right away back then?"
"Of course they can!"
Lan Shanyang sneered, "I haven't touched Hu Tianyong all these years, not only because he is the head of all officials, but more importantly, because he has military support behind him! However, he has never used it all these years. So I don't know where this explosive is buried. If you make a rash move tomorrow, wouldn't it directly cause chaos throughout the world?"
"What should we do? I've already made all the arrangements?"
Lan Linxue immediately became anxious.
Lan Shanyang glared at him, annoyed. "Now you're getting anxious? What were you thinking about just now?"
Lan Linxue rolled her eyes at Lan Shanyang, then suddenly chuckled, "Father, have you arranged everything? Are you just waiting to surprise your son?"
Lan Shanyang couldn't stand it anymore and looked at Lan Linxue: "Do you think this is a surprise?"
Lan Linxue grimaced and crawled forward a little: "I've already been surprised, what's the joy, Father?"
Lan Shanyang looked down at the child who was smiling slightly at her and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
What can you do? Even if he's caused trouble, he's still your own son after all.
"The good news is that tomorrow you will lead your men to completely seal off the capital, especially keeping an eye on Hu Tianyong's movements! You don't need to go to the White Tiger Hall; just manage the outside affairs! If you're going to do something, don't drag it out. Perfect, since we're all in the White Tiger Hall, let's just do it all together. There's no point in assassinating each other; it's better to assassinate me directly! So, immediately have someone arrange for Chen Kuangzheng to prepare. Once these people are thrown into the imperial prison tomorrow, collect all the evidence."
After saying that, Lan Shanyang rubbed his forehead wearily. "I'm tired! I don't want to play games with them anymore!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Linxue immediately became excited: "Yes! Your subject will go find Chen Kuangzheng right now and have him find those censors to draft a memorial overnight!"
As she spoke, Lan Linxue tried to stand up, but her bottom hurt so much that she cried out and lay back down.
"Father! Look at you! You know there's something important going on tomorrow, and you still hit me? What do you mean by that?"
Lan Shanyang looked at his son and said irritably, "If I don't give you a beating, what excuse do you have for not going to see our ancestors?"
After saying that, Lan Shanyang snorted coldly, stood up, turned around, and walked out.
Lan Linxue watched her father's retreating figure and muttered resentfully, "Old fox!"
