"Yes, Chang'an..."
At the same time, Ye Lingxiao also spoke, but before he could finish speaking, he was coldly interrupted by Li Chang'an.
"Hmph, are you going to plead for mercy too?"
After letting out a cold snort, Li Chang'an raised an eyebrow and asked in return, her face always bearing a slightly mocking sneer: "Do you think we should just let him continue to act recklessly and let him grow into a good-for-nothing?"
Looking at the two people in front of him, Li Chang'an felt angry again. Weren't these two always keeping to themselves? How come they've developed such a tacit understanding now?
Feng Beichuan's heart tightened. He knew that Li Chang'an was really angry this time, otherwise he would never have said such harsh words in front of the child.
How come I ran into this mess the moment I woke up this morning?
As he thought about it, he couldn't help but frown. Feng Beichuan felt that he was really having some bad luck.
"Alright, since you two like to be the good guys, then go ahead and coax him slowly."
After saying that, Li Chang'an put Li Changsheng on the ground and left without looking back.
"Wow, my dear sister, you can't leave me here..."
Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Changsheng immediately chased after Li Changan, grabbed his leg, and pressed his entire weight to the ground in an attempt to make Li Changan unable to move.
Unfortunately, he was no match for Li Chang'an and was quickly overtaken by Li Chang'an.
Looking at the chaotic scene before him, Feng Beichuan hesitated whether he should go up and stop them, but in the end he did not go over, because he felt that it was really unnecessary for him to have a falling out with Li Chang'an over that brat.
"Royal sister, royal sister!"
Upon seeing that everyone had left, Li Changsheng immediately panicked. He scrambled to catch up with Li Chang'an, disregarding his status as the crown prince, crying and shouting that he was wrong and would never dare to do it again.
But Li Chang'an didn't even turn his head once from beginning to end. He went straight to the stable, took the horse's reins, and rode away in a cloud of dust.
From beginning to end, it was only Li Changsheng throwing a tantrum all by himself; no one around him came out to help him, and no one dared to get involved.
Looking at Li Chang'an, who had already disappeared, Li Changsheng felt helpless; his plan had fallen through!
"Waaaaah, I want to go back! I want my mother..."
Li Changsheng sat on the ground, crying and shouting with snot and tears streaming down his face. His little face was covered in dust, and his body was also covered in dirt. He looked disheveled and had completely lost his usual spirited appearance.
"Stop crying, even if you cry until the sky snows, the man is already gone!"
Feng Beichuan walked slowly to Li Changsheng, then reached out and pulled him up from the ground.
"Well, could you please help him wash his face and change his clothes? I have to go now."
After clearing his throat, Feng Beichuan turned to Ye Lingxiao beside him and spoke, his words still somewhat awkward.
"Oh, okay."
Ye Lingxiao nodded and answered calmly.
Feng Beichuan turned his head slightly at him, then hurriedly left, disregarding the plan he had agreed upon with Li Changsheng.
"You're not allowed to leave! If you're leaving, take me with you!"
Seeing that his last glimmer of hope was about to be extinguished, Li Changsheng immediately grabbed Feng Beichuan's sleeve and shouted at him, "We agreed that you would take me back!"
Li Changsheng is determined to leave this place today.
"Turn back, I promise I will!"
Feng Beichuan didn't care what he had said before; he didn't have time to deal with this kid now.
Besides, what if I really took him away today and Li Chang'an found out?
Just then, Ye Lingxiao arrived and picked up Li Changsheng. Feng Beichuan took the opportunity to pull his clothes out of Ye Lingxiao's hands.
"I'm leaving. Take good care of yourself!"
Watching Feng Beichuan's retreating figure, Li Changsheng wore a mournful expression, letting Ye Lingxiao pull him along, letting his hopes crumble into dust little by little.
Regent, you big liar, you big bad guy!
Li Chang'an rode his horse at breakneck speed, finally managing to clear his chaotic mind.
Recalling everything that had just happened, Li Chang'an couldn't help but start to reflect on whether he had been too harsh in his way of educating Li Changsheng.
Perhaps I was indeed a bit too eager for quick success.
When they returned to the general's mansion, it was past noon. After feeding Qin Yubao, Qin Xia was about to take him out for a walk when she saw Li Chang'an enter the door looking travel-worn.
The smile on Qin Xia's face instantly froze. She was originally delighted that this woman was not in the manor, but who knew that she would return so soon.
"Madam is back. Have you eaten?"
Although she was unhappy inside, Qin Xia still put on a good show and forced a smile.
"Hmm, I'm not eating anymore."
Li Chang'an gave Qin Xia a polite nod and then turned to return to his own courtyard.
"What the hell? Who are you trying to fool with that long face? Pah!"
Qin Xia couldn't help but mutter a curse under her breath, glaring fiercely at Li Chang'an's departing figure before pulling Qin Yubao away.
"Brother Bao, you should avoid provoking her. She has such a bad temper; she might just grab you and beat you up!"
After they had walked a distance, Qin Xia squatted down again, touching Qin Yubao's soft little face while earnestly trying to scare the child.
Qin Yubao nodded blankly, and Qin Xiashi was finally relieved. As long as her Bao-ge was always of one mind with her, she could always stand firm in the General's Mansion.
The Prince's Palace (film studio).
As soon as Feng Beichuan returned, he received news from Cang Yun.
"Did the emperor secretly summon the old fox?"
Feng Beichuan raised an eyebrow, a hint of coldness flashing in his deep black eyes. These two old bastards really have a deep bond. It's one thing to act like a benevolent ruler and loving minister in court to disgust him, but they're actually secretly plotting against him behind his back.
Do you know what they said?
"It seems the old fox is trying to use the emperor's name to do something, something..."
As Cangyun spoke, he got a little stuck, blinking his eyes but just couldn't remember the word.
"Talent Recruitment Platform".
Zhuque rolled her eyes at him speechlessly, thinking that this person was probably an idiot.
"Yes, yes, it's a recruitment platform! They say it's for the sake of national affairs, and they want to make special use of talented people from various counties and prefectures."
Cangyun summarized the limited information he had gathered, then couldn't help but purse his lips and say with a look of disgust, "An old man like you really knows how to make a fuss. In my opinion, you should just resign from your official post and go home to enjoy your retirement!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a sharp rap on the head from Zhuque.
"You talk too much!"
Zhuque frowned and rolled her eyes at him.
Cang Yun awkwardly shut up and obediently stood aside, waiting for Feng Beichuan's instructions.
Although they were all bodyguards, Cangyun felt that he had the lowest status and was only despised in front of Zhuque.
This might be what they mean by "one thing subdues another"!
