Chapter 372: Throwing a Childish Tantrum
Chapter 372: Throwing a Childish Tantrum
"The older you get, the more ignorant you become!"
Although he said some dissatisfied words, his body was honest and he still stood up.
If you want to hold back your laughter, follow immediately.
Outside the imperial study, Huo Yuanruo was holding a roasted chicken in his hand, but he didn't eat it. He looked worriedly at the little man who was smashing things in the hall.
Just as he was about to go in, he was stopped by Li Xiaoqi who was also holding a roasted chicken. "Don't go in. Although he is a child, his status is there. It's not good to go in at this time."
Huo Yuanruo slapped his greasy hand away in disdain, "Xiao Jie is still young, he must have been upset, I'll go and keep him company."
Li Xiaoqi raised his chin towards the place not far away and said, "I don't need you. Look, the culprit is here."
When Huo Yuanruo turned around, he saw Chu Chenfeng coming towards him with a gloomy face. He curled his lips in disapproval, sat down beside him, and started to eat his roast chicken.
Li Xiaoqi still greeted Chu Chenfeng and Xingyi politely. Chu Chenfeng nodded at them and went straight into the imperial study.
Looking at the messy imperial study, he frowned, "What do you want to do?"
Chu Jie's eyes were red, obviously he had been crying, and he sat on the ground staring at Chu Chenfeng.
Chu Chenfeng pursed his lips, obviously unhappy, "Get up, what do you look like? Don't forget your identity."
"Who am I? This throne originally belonged to you, but you insisted on letting me sit on it."
"This throne originally belonged to your father. What's wrong with letting you sit on it?"
Chu Jie stood up angrily and pushed down the chair next to him. "It's not right. It's not right."
"Chu Tianlin!"
Xing Yi, who was outside the door, was so anxious that he even called out the young master's name. It seemed that the prince was really angry.
"Wow..." Chu Jie cried and sobbed loudly. Even Chu Chenfeng had never seen this child like this.
Huo Yuanruo paused holding the roast chicken. He really had no appetite now. He stuffed the rest of the roast chicken into Li Xiaoqi's hand and ran to Xingyi, paying attention to the situation in the imperial study.
Xingyi just looked back at him and continued to get anxious and angry.
"You...I didn't hit you, why are you crying?"
Chu Chenfeng was a little panicked because he didn't know how to coax a child.
Chu Jie’s little face was red from crying, and he even hiccuped. He looked so pitiful.
Chu Chenfeng just stood there stupidly, not knowing what to say.
Huo Yuanruo was so anxious that he cursed in a low voice, "What a fool! He can't even take care of a child. What else can he do?"
Chu Chenfeng had a serious face, as if he was dealing with some national affairs.
"Uncle Emperor...it will take a long time before he resigns."
“Wow…ah…”
Oh my god, when Chu Jie heard the word "resignation", he cried even louder.
Huo Yuanruo was furious, "What is this? It's just adding fuel to the fire."
Chu Chenfeng's face became even more tense. "I'm just resigning, not leaving. Why are you crying? Stop crying."
“I cry... I just cry... You... just want to leave... Kyoto, you don’t want... me anymore, you just think that I... am a burden.”
"I didn't think so."
“You are… You are.”
Chu Chenfeng hadn't slept all night and was exhausted at the moment, "Okay, stop crying."
Chu Jie was trained by Chu Chenfeng, so he is naturally very smart. "Then...then you promise not to leave."
Chu Chenfeng pinched his brows and said, "I won't leave for the time being."
"Then you will still leave, you still want to leave..." Chu Jie yelled loudly, looking like he was about to cry again.
Chu Chenfeng sighed, "Okay, enough of the trouble."
Chu Jie held his breath, his face flushed, and his shoulders kept shaking.
Seeing this, Chu Chenfeng didn't want to say anything harsh anymore and wanted to reach out to pull him, but the child got angry and didn't let him touch him.
"Even if I resign, will I no longer be your uncle? Besides, when you grow up and have enough ability, you really won't need your uncle anymore."
"Yes, I will always need it." Chu Jie was anxious and expressed his thoughts eagerly.
Chu Chenfeng smiled, "You are the emperor, and I taught you. If you are still unable to take over the affairs of the court independently after you become an adult, then I will be a failure."
"But I took over, and you have to leave."
"No, but... maybe I'll go out more often."
Chu Jie was a little confused and looked at him with sobs.
Chu Chenfeng showed a gentle smile, "I promised your aunt that when the time is right, I will take her out for a walk. You know her, she doesn't like to be constrained and yearns for the vast world outside. I thought that when you can stand on your own, I will take her to travel around. But don't worry, Kyoto is our home, I will definitely come back."
"Then...then how many times a year do you go out?"
"That's hard to say. It depends on your aunt. But we will definitely stay in Kyoto to accompany you."
"Really?" Chu Jie seemed to be a little relieved by what was said.
"When has the emperor's uncle ever lied to you?"
"Then you have to promise me that no matter what time it is, you will not leave without saying goodbye. Even if you go out to travel or play, you have to write to me. You can't do it like before, where I write ten letters and you only reply to one."
"Haha, okay, I promise you."
Little did he know that many years later, Chu Chenfeng and Li Mulan would stay out for a year or two, and Chu Jie had to sneak out of the palace to see them. Of course, this is all later. Now, at least the little emperor believes it.
Chu Chenfeng pulled Chu Jie over and wiped his face with disdain, but his movements were very gentle, "Have you not eaten yet?"
Chu Jie shook his head aggrievedly, "I'm so angry."
Chu Chenfeng snorted coldly, "Is such a small matter worth it? Besides, even if I resign, I have to wait until the world is stable. Now Simon is eyeing it covetously, and Northern Qi has ill intentions. As your uncle, I still have a lot to worry about for you."
Chu Jie hummed twice and said nothing.
Chu Chenfeng ignored him and continued, "You don't handle government affairs properly, but you are still here throwing a tantrum like a child. Is this what I taught you?"
Chu Jie had a sad face, "You are going to criticize me again."
"Did I say something wrong?"
Chu Jie lowered his head and said nothing.
Chu Chenfeng sighed slightly, "Okay, prepare the meal."
"Yes!"
Xingyi happily went to make arrangements. Oh my god, the rain has finally stopped and the sky is clear.
The Empress Dowager, who was not far away, was supported by Nanny Qian and sighed slightly, "Let's go back."
Madam Qian smiled and said, "I have already said that the Regent is very fond of our Emperor and will not punish him."
Just now, the Empress Dowager had just finished drinking medicine in her bedroom when she heard the eunuch come to report that the Emperor had lost his temper in the imperial study and smashed a lot of things, and the Regent came over angrily.
She was worried, so she followed over to take a look.
"Ah, he is very good to the emperor, much better than my grandmother."
Hearing the disappointment in her master's tone, "My queen, please don't be sad. From now on, please treat our emperor better, okay?"
"I would like to, but I'm afraid he won't."
"No, look at what happened yesterday. Didn't the emperor send someone to take you away immediately? He also asked the imperial physician to check on you as soon as he returned to the palace, and only left after everything was arranged. Our emperor has you in his heart."
