Chapter 224: Just showing weakness, it's easy to catch.

The palace gates had already been closed.

Jiang Yingcheng was held in the arms of her uncle Zhong, and she managed to climb back into the palace with her extraordinary martial arts skills.

The soldiers guarding the gate saw the figures of several people from a distance and immediately wanted to turn around and open the door. However, before they could even turn around, they saw several people leap over their heads and go straight in.

They then stood back with peace of mind.

Inside the palace gate, Jiang Yingcheng's cursing voice fell to the ground along with her.

"Neither of you will accompany Chengcheng back to the palace. You have no loyalty!"

"When we were having fun, they said they were the best friends in the world, but when we were in trouble, they all ran away!"

"That's too much. Chengcheng will never like uncles again!"

She kept muttering to herself for a long time, but did not get the expected response.

Jiang Yingcheng looked up in confusion, and was met with the slightly stiff postures of several people.

“…”

Jiang Yingcheng grinned, her smile uglier than crying: "Come to think of it, Chengcheng hasn't seen father for most of the day, I already miss him so much!"

Then, the topic suddenly changed: "But! Father must have rested at this time, Chengcheng should not disturb him!"

After saying this, she stretched out her hands to her Uncle Zhong, hoping to escape by flying.

[Wuwuwu, Uncle Zhong, please hug Chengcheng! Hug Chengcheng quickly!!]

Vegetables, pick them up!!

A light laugh suddenly sounded from behind.

The voice was the clear and melodious one that Jiang Yingcheng loved so much, and the owner of the voice was also her beautiful father whom Jiang Yingcheng loved so much. But this time, such a pleasant and favorite laughter made her shiver.

She couldn't wait any longer for her Uncle Zhong to reach out, so she flew over and tried to climb up along his legs: "Uncle Zhong! Chengcheng is sleepy!"

[Hurry up and send Chengcheng back to sleep, wuwuwu——]

Zhong Chengwang raised his head to the sky without looking to the side, and let the little guy climb up without making any response.

Suddenly, the weight on my body lightened.

The little guy was picked up from behind by her beloved father.

The four of them retreated tactfully. As they walked, they could still hear the young girl's voice trying various tricks to coax her handsome father.

"Oh my god, isn't this the father that Cheng Cheng so much wants to see?!"

"Wow, Chengcheng is so happy!"

“Eh——”

As the footsteps of the people gradually moved away, the sound became smaller and smaller.

…

Jiang Yingcheng was carried all the way back to the Qianyang Palace.

Although Jiang Yanchuan was angry, he still called the palace maid to arrange for the little guy to wash up.

Since the young fellow had stayed over, he had moved his small luggage over bit by bit, just like an ant moving house. Jiang Yanchuan looked around the bedroom filled with the young fellow's scent, and unexpectedly had a strange feeling that it should have been like this long ago.

After another long while, Jiang Yingcheng, who had been washed fragrantly by the palace maids, pushed the door and walked in alone.

——As soon as she entered the room, she threw herself straight at her own quilt on the bed: "Ah! Chengcheng is so sleepy!"

She quickly shook off the quilt, then quickly buried herself in it, turning back and forth a few times like a cricket cocoon, and successfully wrapped herself up like a quilt roll.

Jiang Yanchuan stood quietly beside the bed, looking down at the person in front of him.

The little girl's quilt was emerald green, and now she had rolled it into a long, thin strip, which looked a bit like a fleshy little worm.

Jiang Yanchuan was amused by his own idea and almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Jiang Yingcheng," he said, "Come out."

The quilt on the bed moved slightly twice and then returned to calm.

The little guy was still wrapped up in it, not even a hair was visible.

Jiang Yanchuan was afraid that she would really hurt herself, and was also worried about scaring her, so he could only sigh and say, "Father is not angry."

This time, the green quilt was rolled up a little more, and finally a small seam slowly appeared.

Jiang Yingcheng's dark pupils sparkled in the light of the candle: "Really?"

Jiang Yanchuan nodded.

Jiang Yingcheng then threw back the quilt, her hands flickering around her cheeks: "Father, you should have told me earlier, it's so hot, Chengcheng - ouch!"

The ear near the outside was suddenly grabbed by a large hand with distinct knuckles and twisted gently.

“Ouch!”

Jiang Yingcheng shrank back suddenly.

Fortunately, Jiang Yanchuan didn't really use any strength, and Jiang Yingcheng only retreated a short distance, which allowed her to avoid the attack range.

Jiang Yingcheng complained with tears in his eyes: "Father is a liar!"

Jiang Yanchuan said calmly, "You also said you would come back after shopping."

Jiang Yingcheng was choked by these words. She turned around awkwardly and rushed to the inside of the bed, refusing to listen to her handsome father's "wrong logic".

Feeling guilty, but stubborn.

Jiang Yanchuan, who was used to doting on the little guy, did not give up easily this time.

He picked up the little girl and placed her in front of him, tapping her forehead with his finger. "Xu Jiu sent someone to the palace in advance today, saying that you must follow Lu Yao to Jiangyang Street to investigate the case."

Jiang Yingcheng's eyes suddenly widened. Before she could condemn her Uncle Xu in her heart for betraying their agreed alliance, she heard the beautiful father sitting opposite her suddenly soften his tone.

"My father was extremely worried at the time."

He almost wanted to go and bring the young man back to the palace himself, but he was persuaded by the minister who happened to be present at the time.

——The people of the Danxia Kingdom's leader have been replaced by them a long time ago, and with so many leaders guarding nearby, the little guy should not be threatened at all.

Even so, he still sent out all the secret guards following him.

That group of people were very good at hiding their bodies, so he was not worried that they would ruin the young man's plan.

The tenderness in the voice was something she had never heard before, and it made her forget all her thoughts in an instant. Only one thing remained in her mind: she had scared her father.

The two emotions of "my father cares about me" and "my father is worried about me" kept tug at her heart, making her feel both proud and guilty.

"Then, then Chengcheng..."

She wanted to tell Cheng Cheng not to take risks next time, but she suddenly realized that she knew a lot more information than everyone else, and if some things were not resolved in time, they might cause irreversible consequences.

Her father was very good to her, and she also wanted to help her father.

Jiang Yanchuan saw the young man's tangled expression and guessed what he was thinking almost instantly. He sighed deeply and said, "There are too many people coming and going in Beijing these days, and there are spies from various countries mixed in. Have you ever thought about--"

He lowered his head and looked straight into the little guy's eyes.

"Have you ever thought about where your father would go to find you if someone hid you?"

"If you were injured by someone, how anxious would your father be?"

Jiang Yanchuan had never said such words before, and he was not good at expressing himself in this regard. His sentimental words sounded extremely stiff. Fortunately, the little guy seemed to understand it all.

He also threw out the bait at the right time: "If Chengcheng can stay in the palace safely before the New Year's Day banquet is over, then after the envoys from various countries leave the capital, your father will take you on a tour."

The young girl had a dazed expression and forgot to breathe several times. She did not react at all to the final bait and instead threw herself straight into the arms of her handsome father.

That's great.

She thought.

Her father must be the best father in the world.

No one.

In a corner where she couldn't see, Jiang Yanchuan held the little guy tightly in his arms and slowly raised the corner of his lips.

Just show weakness and you will be caught easily.
