Chapter 444 Norio (37)
Li Tian'ao sat there for a while longer, but Xiong Bufan continued to swing on the swing, ignoring him.
Feeling bored, he drank another cup of tea and ate a few pastries before reluctantly leaving.
After Li Tian'ao left, Xiong Bufan picked up a tile and sat on the wall.
If this person speaks ill of him like Lu Guanqi did, she will smash him away with a tile.
That's what Xiong Bufan thought, but to others it had a different meaning. Li Tian'ao felt that Xiong Bufan was yearning for the outside world.
Fahe and his disciples believed that Xiong Bufan had fallen in love with Li Tian'ao, and therefore couldn't bear to leave.
“Extraordinary. Royal families are different from ordinary families.”
Li Tian'ao will not marry you, and things will not end well for you two.
The tiles weren't taken for nothing; they're coming in handy now.
Xiong Bufan picked up a tile and threw it at Fahe without hesitation, saying, "I am the beautiful Xiong Bufan, don't you dare ruin my reputation."
Fa and the one who was hit took a few steps back, assuming that Xiong Bufan was just angry and embarrassed, and continued, "Xiong Bufan, there is no good outcome for a love between a human and a god."
Xiong Bufan jumped down from the wall, came up to Fa He, and tugged at his sleeve, saying, "I don't like Long Aotian. If you ruin my reputation again, I'll kill you."
After saying that, Xiong Bufan was still not satisfied, so he found a rope and hung Fahe upside down from the roof beam.
"Put it down after an incense stick has burned, and let the former national advisor clear his head of all that nonsense."
"Yes."
Fahe has now completely shut up. Hanging upside down from the roof beam, he can see different scenery, which can be considered a kind of alternative practice.
The struggle for the throne is nearing its end. The third and fourth princes have been demoted to commoners, and the eldest prince has been secretly poisoned and is likely to die soon.
The fifth prince was left to frolic all day long, dealing with the princes who were underage and the ambitious princesses.
Li Tian'ao remained neutral, appearing dazed and confused every day, and became very close to the imperial advisor who was under house arrest.
Fahe wouldn't consider the political situation in the court, but it seems that the Fifth Prince is very likely to be the candidate for that position.
Their good emperor truly puts filial piety and the country first.
Xiong Bufan did not go to the palace that night, not because someone was guarding it, but because she forgot.
Another reason is that if he goes every day, his routine will be discovered, and Xiong Bufan wants to focus on surprise.
Kongkong: If you don't want to go, you don't want to go. There's no need to make so many excuses.
The emperor, with his hair chewed like a dog's, stood guard with his generals, while the palace maids and eunuchs were also on high alert, determined to ensure that the thief would not return alive.
They waited until the first rooster crowed, but there was still no sign of the thief.
There's only one hour left before court begins, so that thief probably won't show up.
The emperor waved his hand and said, "My dear ministers, please go and wash up and rest. I will have to trouble you all tonight."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The generals left the imperial study one after another. The emperor almost lost his balance when he stood up from his chair, but was fortunately supported by the eunuch Cui Guohong.
"Your Majesty, shall we summon the imperial physician?"
"No need, just call Tian Ao and Xiao Wu over."
"Yes."
Compared to the emperor and his ministers who had stayed up all night, feeling hungry, tired, and sleepy, Xiong Bufan was living a much more comfortable life.
Before going to sleep, palace maids would read stories to him. When he fell asleep, someone would turn off the lights and cover him with a blanket. When he woke up, the sun was already high in the sky, and palace maids would dress him and bring him mouthwash.
All the food was prepared. After eating, Xiong Bufan played in the yard and bickered with Fahe.
They were supposed to be bickering, but every time Xiong Bufan would beat Fa He so badly that he would run away with his tail between his legs.
Fahe shouted as he ran, "Xiong Bufan, you have no martial ethics!"
"none of your business."
Even the most fun thing can get boring after a morning.
Xiong Bufan wanted to go out and play in the street. There were always new things happening there, much more interesting than this old eccentric man in the mansion.
Fahe saw Xiong Bufan chasing after him and then suddenly stopped, going off to cultivate as well.
When Li Tian'ao was summoned to the palace and heard that he had been made crown prince, he was shocked. He felt that the emperor was messing with him and just couldn't stand his idle lifestyle.
The Fifth Prince, Li Mingguang, was practically spitting fire as he watched his third and fourth brothers defeat their eldest brother.
They dealt with the princesses who were eyeing them covetously, joined forces with the concubines, and even got rid of the little brat. Little did they expect that in the end, the second son would reap the rewards.
This is unfair; the emperor is biased.
After establishing a crown prince, the emperor's second action was to confine the prince to his quarters and deduct three months' salary from his salary.
This left the ministers and the two princes completely baffled. Was His Majesty giving the Crown Prince an important position or not?
However, the crown prince is still the crown prince. Even if he is confined to his quarters and his salary is reduced, he is still the crown prince.
Looking at everything in the mansion, Li Mingguang felt as if God had played a cruel joke on him.
Li Tian'ao didn't feel anything after becoming the crown prince; it seemed like everyone received the same treatment.
But Consort Xu couldn't sit still any longer and even started to interrogate Li Tian'ao about how he became the Crown Prince.
Xiong Bufan received a letter and money from Li Tian'ao at the Imperial Preceptor's residence, but he couldn't understand it, so he had Fahe read it to him.
Every word in the letter was an attempt to comfort Xiong Bufan, assuring her that he wouldn't worry and would be released after a period of confinement.
When he becomes the crown prince, he will surely be able to release Xiong Bufan.
After reading the letter, Fa and others both felt that Li Tian'ao's feelings were deep and sincere.
Xiong Bufan crushed the letter into powder without saying a word.
Kongkong: "Bufan, it seems Li Tian'ao has fallen in love with you."
What do you think? "
"He just wanted a free bodyguard, this cunning man."
Now that he has become the crown prince, everyone is pointing out his mistakes, and some princes even want to kill him, so he desperately needs Xiong Bufan's help.
Kongkong asked doubtfully, "Is that really true?"
"Yes, Lao Tzu's judgment of people is never wrong."
"Ok."
Kongkong felt that something was off about Xiong Bufan's words, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
However, Xiong Bufan's decision to stay away from romantic relationships is something that deserves support no matter how you look at it.
Fahe sighed to himself, "The emperor's actions are becoming more and more unpredictable."
They actually chose a seemingly foolish prince as the crown prince, aren't they afraid that Xiong Bufan would swindle all the money in the national treasury?
Xiong Bufan did not reply to Li Tian'ao's letter. She spent the entire afternoon sleeping in bed, as she had important things to do that night.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already daylight.
Xiong Bufan really wanted to cause trouble this time, but he had overslept.
Kongkong blurted out unexpectedly, "Bufan, Scholar Zhang is dead."
"Oh, God will protect that wicked soul."
Kongkong didn't know where Xiong Bufan had learned such strange language, but he still said, "Bufan, God is from the West, he doesn't exist here."
"Alright, then no god will protect Scholar Zhang."
