Chapter 779: Wangye, you think too much
Xiao Tianyao finished bathing, but Lin Chujiu still didnât come back. Xiao Tianyao wanted someone to find her, but before he opened his mouth, the guard came to report: âWangye, the Eldest Prince, and the Seventh Prince asked for an audience.â
Xiao Tianyao frowned a little and said with a cold face, âCome in!â He will go to the capital tomorrow. Seeing them today was inevitable.
âZiwen, Zimo has met Imperial Uncle. Imperial Uncle returned to the camp, but this nephew didnât go out to meet Imperial Uncle in person. This nephew asks Imperial Uncle to punish me.â The Eldest Prince and the Seventh Prince walked into the thatched house together and saluted respectfully.
Xiao Tianyao came back very suddenly and didnât say hello to anyone in advance. Although the Jinwuwei Army knew it earlier, they didnât take the initiative to tell the Eldest Prince and the Seventh Prince. When they received the news and rushed out to meet Xiao Tianyao, Xiao Tianyao had already entered the camp with General Yuan Shao and was talking to Lin Chujiu at the door.
The Eldest Prince and the Seventh Prince wanted to come forward, but they just took two steps when they saw Lin Chujiu crying with Xiao Tianyao. If they came forward on that occasion, Lin Chujiu would take revenge on them.
In order not to offend Lin Chujiu, the two princes retreated silently as if they had seen nothing.
âNo need for the ceremony.â Xiao Tianyao said coldly, a little impatient. âDonât worry about the reception. You are benwangâs nephew, you donât need to be polite. Sit down.â He just didnât want to deal with the two princes, so he came back without saying anything.
âThank you, Imperial Uncle.â Although the Eldest Prince and the Seventh Prince pleaded guilty, they did not take it seriously. After all, it was not Xiao Tianyaoâs fault not to meet them. As long as Xiao Tianyao was reasonable, he would not cause them trouble.
After the two sat down, the Seventh Prince continued to play with the innocent child in front of them. His big eyes kept moving around like a curious child. But of course, he wouldnât be foolish to ask questions. Children in the palace can be naive, but they must not be stupid.
The Eldest Prince took the main responsibility of communication. After thinking for a moment, he said: âImperial Uncle went back to the camp today, you must have been exhausted all the way. Under such circumstances, this nephew should not⊠âŠâ
But before he finished his polite words, Xiao Tianyao interrupted impatiently. âIf you have anything to say, say it directly, my patience is limited.â Did they think they were Lin Chujiu and think he was free to listen to their gossip?
âCough, coughâŠâ The Eldest Princeâs face turned red and coughed in embarrassment. Under Xiao Tianyaoâs cold stare, the Eldest Prince turned serious and said: âImperial Uncle, this nephew wants to ask you when you will enter the capital?â He also wanted to speak straight to the point, but if he do that, what if their Imperial Uncle found it offensive?
As everyone knows, the whole Eastern Country thought highly of Xiao Tianyao. If he annoys their Imperil Uncle Xiao and he used it as a reason to send troops, he will be miserable.
âTomorrow benwang will return to the capital.â It takes one day to arrive at the imperial capital, so to say, Xiao Tianyao can go to the palace and face the emperor the day after tomorrow.
âSo fast? Imperial Uncle is tired all the way. Donât you need to rest for 2 days?â Just one day, he doesnât know if his imperial father can prepare everything in just one day.
However, it doesnât matter whether he was prepared or not. They have known for a long time that Xiao Tianyao will enter the palace to report. If the emperor doesnât prepare early, he will never be ready.
âNo, I will go to the palace early to report, so that the emperor can feel at ease.â Xiao Tianyao was not afraid of the Eastern Emperor at all.
âCough, coughâŠâ The Eldest Prince was choked by his saliva again and pleaded for the emperor with insufficient confidence: âThe sword has no eyes on the battlefield. Imperial Father is also worried about the safety of Imperial Uncle. Only when he sees Imperial Uncle he can rest assured.â
It was understandable why the eldest prince has no confidence. Because even he doesnât believe it.
âReally?â Xiao Tianyao slightly curved his lips, but his smile doesnât look like a smile at all. The Eldest Prince had a feeling of being seen through. He was embarrassed and didnât dare to look at Xiao Tianyao.
The room was silent. Xiao Tianyao didnât mean to break the silence. The Eldest Prince wanted to say something, but he didnât know what to say when he opened his mouth.
Seeing this, the Seventh Prince sighed secretly, raised his innocent smile, and looked at Xiao Tianyao. He said in a low voice: âImperial Uncle, have you finished talking with the eldest brother? Can I go to play with Imperial Aunt after talking?â
The Seventh Prince looked afraid of Xiao Tianyao, and his eyes were timid, but he still had hope.
He knew that Xiao Tianyao would not argue with him.
âGo!â The result will be all the same. Xiao Tianyao wonât argue with a child. Even if this child was very scheming, he wonât take it seriously.
âThank you, Imperial Uncle.â The Seventh Prince jumped down, bowed to Xiao Tianyao, turned around, and then ran outside. Xiao Tianyao who was in the room heard him ask the guard where Lin Chujiu was.
When the Seventh Prince left, the Eldest Prince also got up to leave. Xiao Tianyao didnât embarrass him.
Whether it was the Eldest or Seventh prince, Xiao Tianyao didnât pay attention to them. Because he knew that his enemy was not the Eastern Country.
Xiao Tianyao didnât know whether the Seventh Prince had found Lin Chujiu, but Lin Chujiu didnât appear until dinner.
âWangye, itâs time to have dinner.â That was right. Lin Chujiu brought the dinner.
Xiao Tianyao looked at Lin Chujiu in surprise as he watched Lin Chujiu serve the meals beside him. Xiao Tianyao couldnât tell what it was like. He straightened his clothes and asked solemnly, âIs there anything wrong with you?â No one will be courteous for nothing.
However, for the sake of Lin Chujiuâs rare hospitality, he will agree to it.
âIâm alright.â Lin Chujiu looked at Xiao Tianyao in a confused way. She didnât understand what he mean.
âAre you really okay?â Then why are you so attentive when everything is alright?
âI stayed in the camp all day, what can happen to me?â The lesson learned from the past was still vivid in her eyes. Now she walks carefully every step in the army, in fear of something bad will happen.
âMmm.â Since it was alright, it must be⊠Lin Chujiu has figured it out.
With this in mind, Xiao Tianyaoâs eyes on Lin Chujiu became softer.
Although this woman was stupid, she still has brains. She finally thinks about it and knows how to please him.
Xiao Tianyao nodded contentedly. He walked away, washed his hands, and turned to see Lin Chujiu handing him the clean handkerchief, which made him even more satisfied: âFrom now on, letâs do this.â Couples should behave like husband and wife, not hide from him all day.
âHuh?â Lin Chujiu was shocked for a moment. She didnât quite understand what Xiao Tianyao said.
What do this from now on?
She just pulled Xiao Tianyao and cried, then went out for a walk. When she came back, she happened to meet the soldier delivering dinner, so she brought it in. Just after Xiao Tianyao went to wash his hands, she found that there was no clean handkerchief on the side, so she took out her own.
She doesnât seem to do anything special today.
âLetâs eat.â Xiao Tianyao looked at Lin Chujiuâs dumbfounded appearance. He thought she was embarrassed, so the smile on his face deepened a bit.
