Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

After eating and drinking, the three of them sat at the table drinking fragrant tea and chatting.

Long Tianyang said happily, "Prince Chan, you must come to Tianzong to play with me more often in the future! They don't play with me, and they ask me to learn so many things every day. I am so tired. It's more fun to be with you."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll cause you trouble?" Gu Chan joked.

"Then how about I just go and play with you, and you don't have to come to Tianzong to find me." Long Tianyang said with a pout.

Gu Chan was immediately amused by him and burst into laughter, and was extremely happy.

Feng Shishi reached out and touched Long Tianyang's little head and said, "Go wait in the carriage downstairs first. I have something to talk to Prince Chan alone."

"Yes, mother." Long Tianyang said obediently.

After saying that, he obediently stood up and left, leaving the space to Gu Chan and the others.

Gu Chan put away the smile on her face and said seriously, "Master's wife, just say whatever you want to say! I am a straightforward person, and I don't like to beat around the bush when it comes to people I trust."

"The secret letter my husband sent to me last month said that the people in Diyue are very eager to fight and are very hostile to our Tiancang country, so I'm worried that there will be big problems between the two countries in the future." Feng Shishi said worriedly.

"Didn't the Diyue Kingdom send envoys to negotiate peace last time? Why didn't the negotiations go well?" Gu Chan asked puzzledly.

She remembered that when she was the lord of Jiangnan, she heard that the Diyue Kingdom had sent envoys to negotiate, but she was not clear about the outcome of the negotiations.

Moreover, no results of the peace talks between the two countries have been announced to the public. Even people in Kyoto know very little about the cause and effect of this matter!

Feng Shishi sighed and said, "The Crown Prince was in power at the time. When the peace talks were going on, the leaders of our Tiandiren Sect were also present. With the Crown Prince's arrogant and complacent personality, the two sides parted ways unhappily before the talks lasted even a stick of incense."

"So that's how it is. He is indeed the kind of person who is incapable of accomplishing anything and is always capable of causing trouble." Gu Chan said speechlessly.

If she hadn't met Feng Shishi today and heard this from her, she would have really thought that the previous peace talks between the two countries had made significant progress. But judging from the current situation, she had indeed overestimated Xuanyuan Long's ability.

Feng Shishi said bitterly, "Now that the crown prince has yet to ascend the throne, the domestic situation in Tiancang is unstable. Once Diyue Kingdom takes advantage of the situation, I'm afraid there will be another bloody storm. The reason why I stand on the crown prince's side is that I hope he can ascend the throne as soon as possible to stabilize the situation. After all, a country cannot be without a king for a day, and a group of dragons cannot be without a leader for a day."

"Master's wife, I understand your feelings, but I advise you to remain neutral. The prince is not the best candidate to ascend the throne. Even if you help him ascend the throne, Tiancang Kingdom will still face a huge disaster." Gu Chan consoled.

"Then tell me, who is the best candidate to ascend the throne now?" Feng Shishi asked back.

Gu Chan was speechless on the spot when asked by her.

She was just a king of a foreign surname, not even a member of the royal family of Tiancang. It was simply impossible for her to decide the best candidate to ascend the throne.

Even if she already has a best candidate in mind, she wouldn't dare to say it out loud!

So in this situation, she'd better keep her mouth shut to avoid getting herself into trouble.

Feng Shishi spread her hands and said, "See! You can't explain it clearly. Now the old prince is eyeing the throne again, and the major forces in Kyoto are not united. If things continue like this, the Diyue Kingdom will take advantage of the situation sooner or later."

"Master's wife, you weren't invited by the Queen Mother to be a lobbyist, were you?" Gu Chan said.

"Gu Chan, you misunderstood. I didn't mean that. I just care about the people of Tiancang Kingdom." Feng Shishi hurriedly explained.

Gu Chan shook her head and said, "Okay, Master's wife, you don't need to say more. When you reach the mountain, there will be a way. When you reach the bridge, you will naturally straighten it out. No one can predict what will happen in the future. If the throne really belongs to him, Xuanyuan Long, then he should be the emperor. But if it doesn't belong to him, it's useless for him to force it."

"But……"

"Master's wife, you should go back to Tianzong and have a rest as soon as possible! You should stay in Tianzong for the time being and don't go to the palace unless necessary. I can only remind you that you should take care of yourself now that you are here." Gu Chan interrupted.

After saying that, she stood up and wanted to leave.

Feng Shishi waved her hand to stop her and said, "Wait, this thing shouldn't be in my hands, I'd better give it to you!"

Gu Chan stopped, Feng Shishi reached into her sleeve, took out the imitation of the imperial seal and handed it to Gu Chan. Then she let out a long sigh and walked away silently.

Gu Chan put away the imperial seal, accompanied her all the way out of the restaurant, and watched her get on the carriage and leave before quietly rushing back to Prince Chan's Palace.

But what she didn't expect was.

She had just returned to the lobby in the front yard of Prince Chan's mansion and sat down. She didn't even have time to drink a glass of water when four spirit beasts rushed over and blocked her way.

Gu Chan looked at them and said, "What are you going to do?"

"I heard that you went to the palace?" asked the dragon.

"Yeah!" Gu Chan said dumbfounded.

"Then why didn't you bring Zuo Xin back?" asked the dragon.

Gu Chan put her hand on her forehead and said helplessly, "I went to Yongning Palace to see the Queen Mother to handle official business, not to deal with those romantic matters. Can you please stop bothering me with this matter?"

"What could be more important than your own wife? I tell you, you must go to the palace right now to coax her and bring her back, otherwise don't blame us for being cruel." The dragon shouted angrily.

After saying that, the four spirit beasts immediately stepped forward, each of them glaring at Gu Chan with vicious eyes.

"Gulu!"

Gu Chan was so scared that she swallowed her saliva, and she was actually a little offended in her heart!

In the past, when these four pure-blooded spirit beasts helped her every day, she really didn't feel much pressure. Now that they were putting pressure on her together, she realized how terrifying they were.

It is no wonder why Zuo Wangfeng, the prince and others were so afraid of them before.

Mo Qilin said coldly, "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you go quickly?"

"Yes, yes, four bosses, I was wrong, okay? I will go to the palace to coax the ladies now. You just stay at home and take care of the house. I promise to bring them back as soon as possible." Gu Chan quickly stood up and said.

"If you can't bring your wife back, don't come back. Otherwise, we will beat you every time you come back." The big black bear said coldly.

Gu Chan nodded hurriedly, ran out of the lobby quickly, trotted out of Prince Chan's Mansion, and then hurried to the palace helplessly.

"Hahaha……"

As soon as she ran out of Prince Chan's Mansion, the four spirit beasts started laughing happily in the lobby in the front yard.

Obviously, they didn't really want to beat Gu Chan, they just wanted to scare her and make her go to the palace to coax the lady.
