The foolish girl returns, and the regent becomes a wife-loving madman

Lu Zhong raised his hand, curled his fingers slightly, clenched them into a fist and placed it behind his back.

Looking at the obvious fingerprints on Xie Zihan's cheek, Lu Zhong pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

Thinking of the news I just received, my anger dissipated a little, but continued to rise.

Lu Zhong pointed at Xie Zihan: "Do you know what you are doing?"

"I know what you're thinking, but you should never, ever interfere with the border war."

"Han'er, your mother and I have agreed to help you, why are you rushing into this regardless of my advice?"

"When two armies are fighting, how important are food and fodder to the soldiers? How dare you take away all the food and fodder?"

He was almost pissed off to death by Xie Zihan and the Queen.

Lu Zhong couldn't understand why the two of them didn't listen at all to his Qianfan's instructions.

Could it be that they thought that without Xie Lingxiao's victory over Xiling Kingdom, Beiling Kingdom would still have a chance of winning?

At that time, no matter how much preparation they made, if there were strong enemies outside, he would not agree with the decision of the Queen and Xie Zihan.

Xie Zihan glared at Lu Zhong: "I told you that I have my own plans and asked you to leave me alone."

"I was in a hurry, so I had my own reasons. I don't need to tell you."

"For today's incident, this prince will spare your life. If there is a next time, think about whether the Prime Minister's Mansion can withstand the wrath of this prince."

Lu Zhong's eyes widened: "You..."

"You still want to attack the Prime Minister's Mansion? You clearly know that I am..."

Xie Zihan shouted, “Shut up, Lu Zhong, if possible, I just want to be my prince in peace and don’t want to have anything to do with you.”

"Please keep your mouth shut and don't let your imagination run wild. I won't admit it."

Who does he think he is?

If he wants to be Xie Zihan’s father, he has to see if he agrees.

Lu Zhong and his mother made the decision privately. Does he have to admit his humble status?

It's impossible. He is the crown prince of Beiling Kingdom and will be the emperor of Beiling Kingdom in the future.

How could he be compared to an illegitimate son of a prime minister?

Lu Zhong didn't expect Xie Zihan to say such a thing, and his hand pointing at him trembled slightly.

"I have made so many arrangements for you since you were a child, but all I get in return is your recognition?"

"Arrange? If you hadn't had thoughts that you shouldn't have, even if you did nothing, I would still be the crown prince of Beiling Kingdom."

"Xie Zihan, if I hadn't pushed you to the position of Crown Prince..."

"That's enough. Isn't that what you should do? You did something wrong, shouldn't you make it up to me?"

Lu Zhong looked at Xie Zihan like this and listened to his harsh words, and felt dizzy.

He staggered forward: "Is this what you think?"

Xie Zihan said nonchalantly: "Is it important?"

"Lu Zhong, I've already beaten you, do you still want to lecture me now?"

"I'm telling you the truth. The grain and grass shipped to Xiling Country were indeed hijacked by me. If you want Xie Lingxiao to come back alive, you're dreaming."

He had made so many preparations to keep Xie Lingxiao in Xiling Country, so how could he let go easily?

Thinking of what Lu Zhong said about food and fodder, Xie Zihan's gloomy heart suddenly became bright.

It had been so long since he sent the letter by carrier pigeon, but he didn't expect to learn the news of the successful interception from Lu Zhong.

Lu Zhong looked at Xie Zihan, who was very different from before, and felt his heart go cold.

This is the kid he watched grow up.

This is the man he has devoted everything to cultivating.

Looking at Xie Zihan in front of him, Lu Zhong suddenly realized that he had lost control since some time.

Lu Zhong was worried that Xie Zihan would continue to make mistakes, so he had to soften his tone to persuade him.

"Han'er, there is a strong enemy outside now. We must not have other thoughts at this time. Please listen to my advice. After Xie Lingxiao defeats Xiling Kingdom and the war is over, I will help you deal with him, okay?"

"Han'er, your mother is worried all day long now. You have already done something wrong, and you can't make the same mistake again."

"Have you never thought that only by repelling the Xiling Kingdom and settling the war, you can sit more firmly on the throne in the future."

He stated all the interests involved one by one, hoping that Xie Zihan would not act on impulse.

But he didn't expect that Xie Zihan actually laughed at him.

"Now that I have done it, I will take everything into account."

"Whether Xie Lingxiao is there or not, I can both withdraw from Xiling State and sit firmly on the throne."

Lu Zhong looked at Xie Zihan's confident look, and for some reason, he felt a little frightened.

Even the emperor, without Xie Lingxiao to defend against the enemy, would have to worry about not having capable generals available, and would also worry about not being able to resist the Xiling Kingdom's army.

Where does Xie Zihan, a prince without real power, get his confidence from?

"What have you done?"

Xie Zihan taunted, "Prime Minister, please take care of yourself. Don't worry about my affairs."

Lu Zhong stared at Xie Zihan with red eyes, and when he saw him sitting there drinking tea, his rage grew even greater.

But he knew that Xie Zihan would not listen to his advice, so he had no choice but to leave angrily.

After Lu Zhong left, he did not return to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but went towards the direction of the Imperial Palace.

He couldn't think of any other solution, so he had to go to the palace to find the queen and ask her to find time to persuade Xie Zihan.

I just hope Xie Zihan can listen to the Queen's words.

Seeing Lu Zhong leaving, Xie Zihan gently rubbed the cheek that he had hit.

This is the first and last time.

If it happens again next time, no matter who Lu Zhong is, he will not let him go easily.

Thinking of him bossing him around, Xie Zihan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Go ask the concierge where Lu Zhong went after he left."

After a moment, the guard's reply confirmed what Xie Zihan was thinking.

As expected, he went to look for his mother.

"If anyone comes from the palace, just say I'm out of the house on business and won't be here for the next few days."

"Yes."

Lu Zhong may not care, but he cannot ignore the queen.

Xie Zihan knew that if the Queen knew about this, she would summon him to the palace and scold him many times, or even cry in front of him.

But he didn't want to see the queen.

Not long after the guard left, he returned to the room and handed a letter to Xie Zihan.

"Your Highness, the secret letter has been sent back."

Xie Zihan's eyes lit up slightly and he quickly checked the contents of the letter.

"Bang..." He slammed the table with one hand and crumpled the letter into a ball with the other.

Xie Zihan said gloomily: "Did you pass on the letter I asked you to deliver last time?"

"Yes."

Xie Zihan stood up and slowly walked to the guard's side. Without waiting for the guard to continue speaking, he kicked him.

After several kicks, the guard fell to the ground, still not knowing where he had gone wrong.

Until Xie Zihan was tired of kicking, he panted and said: "Tell me, the letter has been spread, why do they say that the food and grass were intercepted by others?"

"Why do they say that they haven't received a letter from this prince yet?"

The guard was shocked when he heard what Xie Zihan said: "Your Highness, I passed the message on that day. You have to believe me."

After saying that, he fell to the ground and kowtowed to Xie Zihan repeatedly, begging for mercy.
