Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Xuanyuan Wu reached out and patted her on the forehead, saying unhappily.

"Have you forgotten that when you blocked Zuo Wangfeng's way on the boat that night, didn't you say that I was the exiled prince of the previous emperor?"

"Oh! I remember now, Your Majesty, you have to forgive me! I made it up at that time. Wasn't it to stop Zuo Wangfeng and prevent them from meeting General Nan?" Gu Chan said with a smile.

Dry!

She felt very regretful at this moment.

If she had known earlier that the nine-fingered old beggar was the current emperor in disguise, she would not have said anything nonsense.

Now, when Xuanyuan Wu mentioned this, her embarrassed toes could dig out a three-bedroom apartment from her shoes!

Xuanyuan Wu smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I don't mean to blame you. I mentioned this matter to tell you that if you are forced to go to Kyoto this time, I can go with you in this identity you made up. When the time comes, I will definitely teach that unfilial son a lesson myself."

"Forget it! You are already old, you should stay in the Jiangnan area and enjoy your old age. Let young people solve their own problems. There is no need for you to get involved." Gu Chan sighed.

Nan Xing Kuang also said, "Your Majesty, what Gu Chan said is true. If you really go back to Kyoto now, you will fall into the Crown Prince's trap. Once he finds you, he will definitely get rid of you. It's better for you to stay in the Jiangnan area. He can't do anything to you even if he wants to."

"But……"

"Don't say buts. Just listen to us and stay here. Otherwise, when we go to Kyoto, I will have to protect you, which will be detrimental to my actions!" Gu Chan interrupted with a wave of her hand.

Xuanyuan Wu smiled bitterly and was speechless.

He also understood that what Gu Chan and the others said was right. If he returned to Kyoto now, the result would not be good.

Gu Chan eased the atmosphere and said, "By the way, Your Majesty, where is the old leader?"

"Not long after I came to Jiangnan, he died of illness. I took advantage of the situation and buried him secretly, then disguised myself as him and led this group of beggars to beg. During this time, with the beggars offering me offerings, I lived a good life." Xuanyuan Wu said.

"Then how were you forced to come to Jiangnan?" Gu Chan asked.

Xuanyuan Wu shook his head and said, "No one forced me to come here. I came here on my own. I didn't want to stay in Kyoto and watch the princes kill each other, so I let the crown prince rule on my behalf and hid in Jiangnan to have some peace and quiet. Who would have thought that the unfilial son would use such a trick on me and defeat me!"

"Your Majesty, you know your son best! Now that the crown prince has succeeded to the throne and become the new emperor, what do you think will happen to your other sons?" said Gu Chan.

Xuanyuan Wu smiled bitterly and said, "They probably can't leave Kyoto now, and their lives are in danger, so I want to ask you for help. You must go to Kyoto and help me rescue the princes and princesses. Even if you can't save them, at least you have to help me save their lives."

"Your Majesty, you think too highly of me. I don't have that ability!" Gu Chan said in embarrassment.

"I'll give you something. Take it and I guarantee your life will be safe." Xuanyuan Wu said solemnly.

After saying that, he reached into his arms, took out a yellow cloth package and handed it to Gu Chan.

When Gu Chan opened the package, she was stunned.

Because what was wrapped in the yellow cloth was actually a golden dragon head jade seal! At this moment, four loud and clear words appeared in her mind: "Heirloom Jade Seal".

Carefully wrapping the jade seal again, Gu Chan said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, could this be?"

"Yes, it is the imperial seal of our Tiancang country. If you take it to the capital, it can serve as your life-saving talisman. If that unfilial son really wants to sit firmly on the throne, he must get this thing." Xuanyuan Wu said in a deep voice.

Gu Chan nodded seriously and silently put the yellow cloth package into her arms and put it away.

Nan Xing Kuang patted Gu Chan on the shoulder and said, "This time it all depends on you. If you lose, I will lead the army to revolt, protect the emperor and fight back to Kyoto, kill the prince with my own hands, and help the emperor regain the throne of Tiancang Kingdom."

"Let's stop! If there is another war, innocent civilians will be implicated! People's lives are already difficult now, so it is better to resolve this matter peacefully and not make things worse for them." Gu Chan said with a wry smile.

"That's why we let you take the lead. If you can't defeat the prince, we can only make this choice." Nan Xingkuang said in a firm tone.

Gu Chan was very panicked!

Damn it! She had never thought that one day, such a great responsibility of bringing peace to the world would fall on the shoulders of a woman like her. Where could she go to cry?

Looking back to the time when I first traveled through time, although life was a bit hard, at least there was not so much pressure. I could go up the mountain with Ma Zheng every day to collect pig grass and go hunting.

Now, she still has to fight with the royal family, and she doesn’t know whether she can win.

"Hey!"

Thinking about this, Gu Chan sighed helplessly and could only nod and say, "Okay, Your Majesty, I will accept the task you gave me. I will set off for Kyoto tomorrow to try. I can only say that I will try my best. If I unfortunately fail later, then there is nothing I can do."

"Then you should hurry back to the Lord's Mansion and pass the throne of Lord Jiangnan to someone else. Then make all the arrangements. It won't be too late to set off tomorrow." Xuanyuan Wu reminded.

Gu Chan said in embarrassment, "I don't know who to pass it to! I feel like there's no suitable candidate."

"Logically speaking, it would be most appropriate for you to pass the throne of lord to your son," Xuanyuan Wu said.

"I'm only thirteen years old! Where did my son come from?" Gu Chan said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Xuanyuan Wu and Nanxing Kuang immediately raised their eyes and stared at her as if she were a fool.

Gu Chan shrank her neck and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Didn't you marry and take concubines when you were in Zhongyuan City? Then how come it's been so long and your two wives are still not pregnant?" Nanxing Kuang questioned.

"Yes, Gu Chan, although you are a little young, according to the situation of men in our Tiancang country, many men of your age can indeed have children! Is it because you can't?" Xuanyuan Wu glanced at Gu Chan and said with a look of doubt.

A long time ago, he had heard rumors that Gu Chan had a homosexual tendency. Now that she has been married for so long and her two wives are still so beautiful, it shouldn't be possible that they are not pregnant!

Gu Chan's face turned red because of what they said. She hurriedly covered it up and said, "I haven't seen them for a long time since I came to Jiangnan. It's normal that they don't have children. So you guys can chat. I won't stay for long. I have to go back and discuss who will take over my position as lord."

After saying that, Gu Chan quickly stood up and ran out as if she was escaping.

Xuanyuan Wu and Nanxing Kuang looked at her hurriedly leaving back and shook their heads speechlessly.
