Chapter 74

Qin Baolan said with a guilty conscience, she couldn't tell Dugu Chen the truth.

But Dugu Chen seemed to have seen through her thoughts, "Brother, has he made things difficult for you?"

He knew the emperor's temperament well and was afraid that she would be bullied.

When Qin Baolan heard this, she panicked again. Especially when faced with such concern from the second prince, she felt guilty for lying to him.

But there is nothing I can do, there are some things that cannot be said.

She looked up at him and shook her head lightly, "No."

Seeing this, Dugu Chen reached out and tucked the broken hair on her forehead behind her ears, "That's good. You should try to stay away from him in the future, otherwise your parents will be worried if they know."

Qin Baolan stiffened slightly, lowered his eyes and restrained all his emotions, "Yes, I know."

"And you have to pay attention to your safety. This hunting conference is a mixed bag, and there are probably many people with their own hidden agendas. I will also send people to investigate the matter of the killer."

Dugu Chen expressed concern and instructions to her again, just like a biological brother.

This made Qin Baolan feel warm in his heart, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Baolan, I told you that you don't have to be so polite to me. Your parents treat me like family, so I naturally treat you as my own sister and will protect you."

Dugu Chen confided his heart to her softly.

In the previous life, he was also very kind to her and basically responded to her requests. However, at that time, she was focused on Xie Wenxuan and kept a distance from him.

But the reason why he treats her so well is probably because of her parents' relationship.

She nodded, feeling a little heavy.

……

At the same time, Dugu Shu was summoned to the camp by the little emperor.

The little emperor is sitting on the chair and losing his temper with an unhappy look on his face!
When Eunuch Su on the side saw Dugu Shu coming, he felt as if he had seen a savior. He greeted him with joy, "Your Majesty, you are finally here. Your Majesty said it is not fun here and wants to go back to the palace!"

After all, this little emperor is only ten years old. He has been spoiled and willful since he was a child.

If the regent hadn't handled all the affairs of the court for him, the country would have been ruined long ago.The regent had nothing to do, because he was the younger emperor's half-brother. After the emperor passed away, he asked the regent to support the young emperor and listen to the government behind the curtain until the young emperor grew up and became independent.

Although the regent was romantic, had a weird temper, and was cold-hearted, he not only governed the country well, but he could also manage the little emperor.

Seeing his arrival, the little emperor's face did become a little frightened, but he did not let go and said to Dugu: "Brother, this place is really not fun. According to me, this place is not for hunting." , they just go to this broken mountain to feed mosquitoes, you see, I have been bitten by several pimples on my hands, they itch me to death!"

He pouted his mouth as he spoke and showed Dugu Shu the red bitten spot on his hand.

When Eunuch Su saw this, he felt a headache. Little ancestor, do you really think that the regent will feel sorry for you?How ignorant!
Dugu Shu glanced at him coldly and said in a deep voice: "If you can't even bear this little pain, how can you be entrusted with important responsibilities in the future?"

"Brother Imperial, I just think that things like this don't require my intervention at all. Why don't you lead everyone to hold it together!"

The little emperor had a pretty good idea. He had developed a serious dependence on Dugu Shu. He wanted his brother to handle almost everything, and he just sat back and enjoyed the results.

In his opinion, this was indeed the case. After all, this was how his father told his brother when he was dying.

Dugu Shu's face instantly darkened. He didn't like the little emperor being like this the most. If he continued like this, how would he be able to handle things independently in the future?

It’s impossible for me to help him forever!

Thinking of this, he immediately angrily yelled at the little emperor: "Shut up! Brother, I advise you not to have such thoughts. I asked you to come with me. I am specially training you. If there is a national crisis in the future, and you need to lead the expedition in person, we will go there." How do you respond?"

The little emperor smiled disdainfully at this, "How can the emperor need me to go on a personal expedition? Then all the ministers in my court are just decorations? And there should never be such a day!"

Dugu Shu continued to look at him with a cold look and said: "As the emperor of a country, if you don't have the ability to govern state affairs with civility and lead troops with military force, and you can't convince the public, you will have to step down from this position sooner or later!
Our Dugu clan’s hundreds of years of foundation must not be destroyed in our generation! "

It's not that he wants to force the little emperor to grow up, but that the little emperor doesn't realize the seriousness of this matter at all.

The little emperor was also frightened by his words. Realizing the seriousness of the matter, he surrendered and said: "Brother, I know it. It's not enough if I don't go back. I will hunt well this time and let everyone see what I am capable of!" "

In order not to embarrass his ancestors, the little emperor secretly made up his mind to perform well.

Seeing that he was obedient, Dugu Shu's expression softened and he said, "Eunuch Su will come to my tent to get some anti-mosquito sachets soon."

"Yes, my lord!"

Eunuch Su bowed his head and agreed. He knew that the prince was a sharp-tongued man.
