Chapter 654: A Wise Ruler and Good Ministers
Anyone in this room can attack a hundred times faster than Ye Zechuan, not to mention little Yanbao.
But before Xiao Yanbao could release his spiritual power, the mute woman was surrounded by energy.
It was the Heart of the Spirit World that took action before Xiao Yanbao.
It was afraid that the mute woman would die, and the owner refused to fulfill his promise to give it a whole chicken.
Little Yanbao had already raised his hand but he retracted it.
"Not bad, not bad." Xiao Yanbao praised.
"Master, two chickens." The Heart of the Spirit World said in a baby voice.
Xiao Yanbao: You've only been in the human world for two days, and you already know how to bargain.
I am your master. If I let you catch me, that would be terrible. In the future, my chicken legs will be eaten by this guy.
"No!" Xiao Yanbao refused flatly.
The Heart of the Spirit World pouted its little mouth, as if it was about to cry.
"At most one and a half." Xiao Yanbao added.
The tears that were already welling up in the soul's eyes were immediately held back.
"Okay."
It is not greedy.
I thought to myself, if you hit your head again, I will save you again, and my master will give me half a chicken.
The Heart of the Spirit World used its energy to pull the Mute Woman back, and then removed the energy.
He stared at the mute woman with his small eyes and urged her in his heart, "Hit, hit, and hit again!"
But the mute woman did not hit him again, but knelt on the ground again.
Ye Zechuan grabbed his mother's hand and said in a choked voice: "Mother, do you despise me for being disabled? You would rather die than recognize me?"
The mute woman's hand trembled as she stroked Ye Zechuan's face and she burst into tears.
She dreamed of recognizing her son, but she couldn't!
The Second Prince has been in poor health to begin with, and considering the Emperor's fondness for Guo, he will take some care of the Second Prince.
If he admitted it, the emperor would dislike the second prince.
The second prince's life in the palace became even more difficult.
"Second brother, your mother doesn't refuse to recognize you because she dislikes you. She is afraid that she will implicate you and that father will vent his anger on you." Xiao Yanbao said.
Ye Zechuan supported himself on the ground with both hands and raised his head, "Father, I am a useless person anyway and cannot help you with your worries. Then please demote me to a commoner. I am willing to spend the rest of my life accompanying my mother."
When Emperor Lan Qian heard Ye Zechuan's words, he became furious.
How come he, the emperor, is such a terrible father?
She abandoned him when something happened. Is he, the father with whom she has lived for more than 20 years, not as important as the mother she just met?
Why do they always choose their mother and abandon him as their father when something happens?
Emperor Lan Qian gritted his teeth and said, "What if I don't do what you want?"
When the mute woman got anxious, she forgot that she could speak and started shaking her head and waving her hands.
He kowtowed repeatedly to Emperor Lan Qian.
She was afraid of bringing trouble to her son, and ended up bringing trouble to her son. She deserved her death, and she would never let her son be demoted to a commoner.
"Father, I am a useless person. You will not be affected at all if you lose a son like me. You still have eleven brothers and sisters to accompany you. But mother will have to live out her life alone without me."
"Second Prince, you cannot do that. I am not worthy to be your mother. If you insist on doing so, I can only die to atone for my crime." The mute woman suddenly remembered that she could speak.
When the Heart of the Spirit heard what the Mute Woman said, its heart blossomed with joy. It said, "Hurry up and hit me, hurry up and hit me. I will save you, and the master will reward me with half a chicken."
Emperor Lan Qian became even angrier. He said, "You two have a deep mother-son relationship, but I have a heart of stone."
He was just about to demote Ye Zechuan to a commoner out of spite when little Yanbao spoke up.
The atmosphere was not right. If I didn't try to smooth things over, it would be difficult to resolve.
Dad, you can't do anything that you will regret.
"Second brother, don't say that about yourself. You are not a useless person. I will definitely cure your leg." Xiao Yanbao said.
"There's no need to treat him. I wonder how he's going to survive after he leaves the palace in this condition." Emperor Lan Qian said angrily.
Little Yan Bao ran to his father and held his hand, "Daddy, please don't say such angry words, my second brother is helping you."
Emperor Lan Qian raised an eyebrow, "Help me?"
If he wanted to help me, he shouldn't have recognized this dumb woman and embarrassed him.
Little Yanbao nodded heavily, "Yes, a wise ruler and loyal ministers."
Emperor Lan Qian was very surprised. Although his daughter was very capable, he did not hire a teacher to teach her.
He was very surprised that his daughter could say such words.
Little Yanbao looked at her father's surprised expression and thought that her father didn't understand what she meant.
So he counted on his fingers and prepared to make up an excuse for his father.
"Dad, look, my second brother doesn't despise his biological mother and is willing to give up wealth and honor to serve his mother. This is because you taught me well."
Emperor Lan Qian: This doesn't make sense, it's too far-fetched, isn't this how you explain a wise ruler and loyal ministers?
After Xiao Yanbao finished speaking, he saw that his father didn't seem to be convinced by his words, so he continued to make up his story.
"Dad, you are the king, and my second brother is the minister. Only a wise king can produce virtuous ministers. Filial piety comes first among all virtues, so my second brother's actions today are all proof that Dad is a wise king!"
Xiao Yanbao finished speaking in one breath, "Oh my god, I'm so tired, it's so hard to write this story."
Dahuang, this chatterbox, won’t come out to help today.
Emperor Lan Qian smacked his lips. Indeed, that was the case.
Zhang Fu secretly gave little Yanbao a thumbs up.
The little princess was very clever. In just a few words she made this far-fetched story of a wise ruler and loyal ministers sound like the real deal.
"Zhang Fu, help the second prince up." Emperor Lan Qian said in a calm voice.
When the people in the room heard what Emperor Lan Qian said, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
If the little princess hadn't been here today, the second prince would have been demoted to a commoner.
And judging from the emperor's attitude, he will not let this mute woman off easily.
The second prince is likely to lose everything.
Only the heart of the spiritual world was a little unhappy, and half of the chicken flew away.
Seeing that things were easing up, the mute woman slowly raised her head and cast a grateful look at Xiao Yanbao.
When the mute woman raised her head, Emperor Lan Qian stood up from his chair in surprise.
"you……"
The mute woman was so scared that she quickly lowered her head again.
Everyone looked at the mute woman.
Little Yanbao saw his father's surprised look and asked, "Daddy, what's wrong with you?"
"Mute woman, no, Yixiang, raise your head." Emperor Lan Qian said.
There was a hint of excitement in his tone.
The mute woman raised her head again.
This time everyone's eyes widened.
What's going on?
In just a short while, the mute woman had become a completely different person, at least twenty years younger.
From a white-haired, ugly and old woman, she turned into a beautiful woman with lingering charm.
"And she said she didn't use any disguise skills, and she's still deceiving me!"
The anger of Emperor Lan Qian, which had just subsided, rose again.
This Yixiang actually dared to tease me again and again, she is looking for death!
"Someone, take the dumb woman down and chop her up!"
