Chapter 490 Instructions and Tenderness

Luo Jingfeng didn't dare to think about the answer.

No matter how small the possibility was, he couldn't bear the outcome.

He paced up and down the room.

Soon after, he hurried into the palace.

"The Lord Protector has arrived."

The little devil was reading memorials in his study, but he was not honest. He was half lying on the dragon chair with his feet on the edge of the table, his calves swinging back and forth, looking carefree and at ease.

Hearing his uncle coming, he immediately put down the memorial, revealed his face, and asked fiercely: "What are you doing here? Didn't I say I never wanted to see you again?"

It had been more than a month since their last quarrel. Except for the time when he had to see him during court sessions, Luo Jingfeng had never looked for him alone again. Yet, he came again today.

Luo Jingfeng snorted and laughed: "As you wish, you won't have to see me every day in the future, you bastard."

The little devil was delighted and immediately jumped off his chair and asked, "Are you going to the battle?"

"Well, are you happy that Zong Zhao is left to you?" Luo Jingfeng asked expressionlessly.

He was actually very jealous.

In his eldest nephew's heart, his status is not even as high as Zong Zhaogao's.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the kid immediately burst into laughter: "Happy!"

Luo Jingfeng was so angry that he gritted his teeth and stretched out his hands to pinch his cheeks and pull them, but he controlled his strength and said ruthlessly: "You little ungrateful bastard, it's a waste that I'm so good to you."

The little devil rolled his eyes at him: "Who wants you to be so self-righteous and nice to me? I don't need it at all!"

Luo Jingfeng didn't argue with him.

Instead, he said to himself, "I don't know how long it will take for me to come back after I lead the troops to the battle. Listen carefully to Zong Zhao and Prime Minister Shen in the capital and learn how to be an emperor. Don't wait until I come back to find that you are still only able to be a minister."

Jin Cheng's face darkened immediately and he said, "If what you mean by being an emperor is killing people recklessly like you did, then I will never be a good emperor in my life."

Luo was shocked and flicked his head: "You don't listen to me, but you are really good at talking back."

"Hiss...what are you doing!" The little devil covered his head and glared at him.

Luo Jingfeng continued, "I think Chu Heng is almost recovered. According to the agreement, you should send him out of the palace. Let's schedule it today so that I can go out to fight tomorrow without any worries."

The little devil wanted to refute, but then he changed his mind and thought that after Luo Jingfeng left, he could see His Highness anytime he wanted. At worst, he could invite His Highness back to live with him since the East Palace was empty anyway.

Thinking of this, he quickly replied: "Okay, I will take you to Ruining Palace in a while."

It was rare to see him so obedient, Luo Jingfeng smiled: "Good boy."

The little devil complained madly in his heart: You are the good one.

Luo Jingfeng bent down and said to him, "Cheng'er, before I leave, I want to remind you again. Even if you like Zong Zhao and Chu Heng, you must be careful that they may have bad intentions towards you. You must be on guard against others. Do you understand?"

Jin Cheng was speechless and said, "Your Highness doesn't want the throne, so why are you always worried about him rebelling? They are all very good to me, much better than you are to me! Humph!"

Luo Jingfeng frowned and said, "You don't understand. There are not just two of them. There is also the City Patrol and the Duke of Wei's Mansion behind them. If the people below have any ideas, they may force them to take over. Then, on the contrary, you will be in danger."

Jin Cheng continued to argue with him: "You are just scaremongering. What do you mean the people below you have thoughts? Don't your people have thoughts too..."

"Uncle is just too afraid of losing you." Luo Jingfeng looked at him in surprise, the love in his eyes was so strong that it could not be melted.

Jin Cheng was stunned, and all the words he was about to say were stuck in his throat.

This was the first time that Luo Jingfeng said such straightforward and emotional words to him. If you put aside all the differences in political views and world views, they are uncle and nephew, and he is Luo Jingfeng's most beloved child.

Jin Cheng no longer had the desire to retort. He was in a complicated mood and only muttered quietly, "You are just imagining things."

Luo Jingfeng stroked his temples, smiled, took out a token from his pocket, handed it to him and said, "Here you go, take it."

"What?" Jin Cheng looked at the sign, which had only the word "Ling" on it.

Luo Jingfeng said calmly: "I have left 30,000 soldiers for you outside the capital, and you can mobilize them with this order. I also left General Pang with you. Although he acted a little foolishly, he is my most loyal subordinate. If... Zong Zhao and Chu Heng have rebellious intentions, they can protect you from harm."

Jin Cheng raised his head suddenly, almost suspecting that he had heard it wrongly.

This is... a small part of the military talisman.

He racked his brains for a month but couldn't figure out how to take back the military power.

Luo Jingfeng was shocked...just gave him 30,000 soldiers like that?

Jin Cheng stretched out his hand tentatively, fearing that he was just joking, until he held the military token in his hand, the cold and hard touch made him feel the reality.

It really is a military talisman.

Luo Jingfeng really gave it to him.

How could this happen?

Seeing his sneaky look, Luo Jingfeng couldn't help laughing and said, "Keep it away, don't let anyone see it, and don't be stupid enough to tell Zong Zhao and Chu Heng, do you hear me?"

"Oh, oh, I heard you. I will hide it well." The little devil grabbed the token and stuffed it into his arms.

The little guy looked at him with his round eyes, not knowing whether he should say thank you. While he was hesitating, Luo Jingfeng had already finished speaking and was about to leave.

But after taking only a few steps, he turned back.

Jin Cheng was so frightened that he thought he had changed his mind, so he quickly covered the military token as if to protect himself from a thief.

Unexpectedly, the tall figure simply leaned down, held him tightly in his arms, and whispered, "Wait at home until your uncle conquers a few cities for you."

The little devil was stunned and didn't bother to reply.

All I could do was watch Luo Jingfeng's tall figure leave.

His eyes were a little sour. After taking out the token from his arms, he found that the thing that was cold and hard just now had been stained with a slight warmth.

If objects can be kept warm, how much more so can people’s hearts?

Jin Cheng has thought about the wish she wants to make for her birthday this year:

He hoped that Luo Jingfeng would be a better person when he came back next time, so that maybe... maybe they could become a good pair of uncle and nephew.

East Palace.

On the way over, Jin Cheng was always worried that Luo Jingfeng would leave Yu's study and change his route to catch up with His Highness, but when he ran to the place, he found that there were no extra people, and the East Palace was still the East Palace.

"He really doesn't mind his own business anymore..."

The little devil was thinking: Could it be that the wish he had just planned to make is about to come true?

"The Emperor has arrived."

Jin Cheng trotted in and saw Chu Heng being supported by a crutch while practicing walking. He exclaimed in surprise, "Your Highness! You can get out of bed and walk now!"

Since both of them lived in the palace, Jin Cheng came to the East Palace to see him almost every day, and this new change only happened today.

Chu Heng raised his eyes and saw that it was him. He smiled gently and warmly: "Yes, I just learned it. Is it a big progress?"
