Spring Drunk Chang'an

The crazy woman, holding the baby, ran towards the prince with her eyes wide open and her limbs spread wide.

"Escort!!"

The guards of the Eastern Palace shouted, drew their swords, and stood in front of the prince, their faces solemn and their eyes cold.

It looks like "God comes to kill people, Buddha comes to kill Buddhas."

"Ahhh! Spare her life, gentlemen! My wife is just crazy. She never hurts anyone!" The two maids were horrified and screamed, "She means no harm!!"

"No harm!"

However, the guards' expressions remained grim, and they turned their long swords and pointed the sharp blades at the crazy woman.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince holds the throne of the Eastern Palace, and with the Prince of Yan eyeing him covetously, who knows what this woman's background is? Otherwise, she's playing mad and foolish, preparing for a big move!

The female Taoist nun and the two maids saw the shining knife pointing directly at the crazy woman's neck, and they were so scared that their legs went limp. However, the crazy woman was not afraid at all. She stumbled and actually ran in front of Xiao Chuo.

The guards pointed their knives directly at her.

The cold light flashed everywhere, blowing hair off. The mad woman's eyes were pierced by the bright light from several steel knives. She couldn't help but look up to avoid it.

Only then did Liu Changan realize that the crazy woman was actually very young. She looked about eighteen or nineteen years old. Moreover, she had a beautiful face, bright eyes and white teeth. She was actually a beauty.

Xiao Chuo didn't move. She raised her hand to protect Liu Chang'an behind her, looking him up and down with her smoky eyes.

The crazy woman held the baby in one hand and blocked the dazzling light with the other. She stopped and stood there stiffly, looking at Xiao Chuo blankly with her beautiful eyes. After a moment, she turned her head and stared at Liu Changan in a daze.

half an hour...

Suddenly, he burst into tears, shouting, "Dad, wuwuwu, Mom, wuwuwu, why don't you pay attention to me?"

"The adulterer harmed me, the whore harmed me, they beat me, they harmed my child!!"

"Dad, Mom, look at Cao'er. She's my granddaughter. Don't you think she's cute?"

The crazy woman cried and handed the dirty doll in her hand to Xiao Chuo and Liu Changan.

Xiao Chuo: ...

Liu Changan: ...

The two looked at each other for a moment.

"father?"

"mother?"

She, is she referring to us?

how could be?

Liu Changan was stunned. She and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were obviously young and beautiful. Well, even though His Royal Highness was already a murderer, he usually had a blank expression and was cold as ice when he walked outside. He looked very majestic and calm.

But it’s not to the point where people recognize him as ‘Dad’, right?

Obviously, among the guards of the Eastern Palace, there are those who are in their thirties, with a kind appearance and the temperament of an elder!

Besides, how come she is a 'mother'?

She's only 17, okay?

Why do you regard her and the prince as your parents?

Liu Changan pursed his lips uncontrollably, his expression awkward and a little shy.

Over there, Xiao Chuo's indifferent brows relaxed slightly, unknown when and why. He waved his hand gently, signaling the guards not to hurt anyone.

"Who is this person?"

He pointed at the crazy woman and asked calmly.

At that time, the Taoist nun and two maids ran to the crazy woman and grabbed her arms directly. The crazy woman seemed very panicked and wanted to scream. However, one of the maids gently patted the doll in her arms, leaned close to her ear, and said something. The crazy woman's eyes showed obvious fear and pleading.

She actually listened.

She stopped struggling and did not run towards Xiao Chuo and Liu Changan. Instead, she murmured softly, "No, I, I'll be obedient. Don't take my child away..."

"Dad, Mom, save me, save Shaoer!!"

She tilted her head, her eyes blurred with tears, and cried pitifully.

Father—Xiao Chuo.

Mother—Liu Changan.

They both turned their heads away at the same time.

The two maids pacified the mad woman. Seeing this, the female Taoist nun stepped forward, knelt down, and saluted, saying, "I, the humble Taoist, greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. May His Royal Highness live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

"Stand up!" Xiao Chuo raised her hand, then turned her gaze to the crazy woman, "What's wrong with her?"

"Well, to answer your Highness, this lady is the eldest young lady of the Xu family, the Duke of Zhenguo. Her name is Sun Shao. Six months ago, due to the accidental death of her daughter, she became crazy and died of longing for her daughter. She was sent to Guanli by the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion to recuperate."

The nun replied respectfully, her tone tinged with pity, "She used to be very obedient. Even though she was crazy, she never hit or scolded anyone. As long as we let her hold the baby, she would be very obedient and never act recklessly. We were negligent and let her offend Your Highness. I beg Your Highness to be magnanimous and not to hold it against her..."

The female Taoist nun's words were clearly an excuse for Sun Shao.

Liu Changan was startled, and suddenly remembered something. She glanced at Sun Shao in surprise and asked instinctively, "She's usually fine, why did she suddenly run out today? She was yelling and shouting, and she even asked me and the prince to do..."

Dad and Mom~~

Moreover, she shouted "adulterer and adulteress, they killed her", is there any hidden story behind this?

"To answer the young lady, today was an accident. Mingyu took Grandma's doll to wash while she was taking a nap. She woke up early and didn't see the doll, so she became ill. At that time, Mingyu, Mingrong and I were fetching water in the backyard. She came out alone and saw the doll hanging on the rope. She thought it was in trouble, so she ran out..."

The female Taoist priests who usually guarded the backyard came to pay their respects because the prince had arrived.

By some strange mistake, Sun Shao successfully escaped from prison.

The Taoist nun lowered her head and replied with a wry smile.

The two maids, Mingyu and Mingrong, also kowtowed frequently, fearing that their master would suffer misfortune.

Xiao Chuo didn't take it to heart. After all, apart from calling him "Dad" several times and rushing up to him, startling his guards, Liu Shao hadn't done anything rude. Besides, why would he care about a poor man who had lost his daughter, even if there were one or two things wrong? He simply waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.

"Whatever happens, take the Madam of the Duke of Zhenguo back with you, serve her well, and don't blame her!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Ming Yu and Ming Rong were overjoyed when they heard this. They kowtowed repeatedly, then pulled their wife up and coaxed her, "Madam, please be obedient and stop making trouble. Let's go back. It's so late now, and the young lady must be hungry!"

"Oh, by the way, we can't let Fu'er starve!"

Sun Shao was stunned, lowered his head and looked at the baby with a face full of love. He did not refuse, but followed Mingyu and Mingbao and slowly walked to the backyard.

However, she left, but her eyes looked pitifully at Xiao Chuo and Liu Changan, and she said aggrievedly: "Daddy, Mommy, Shao'er is going home first. You, you must not forget me!"

"Fu'er and I were bullied at home, but we had nowhere to complain!"

"You guys need to take care of me!"

"You, you must come to see me!"

She muttered softly, "wuwuwu," and disappeared in a moment.

Seeing this, the female Taoist nun also respectfully took her leave.

However, Liu Changan looked at Sun Shao's departing back with reluctance, and refused to look away for a long time.
