Traveling through the heavens from the prequel of the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 679 Never admit your mistakes Cheng Shaoshang

Outside Ruyang Palace.

The Cheng family members all got on the carriage, only Yang Jiao and Cheng Shaoshang stood outside.

"Why are you free to come to Prince Ruyang's Mansion today?"

Yang Jiao raised his hand to treat the injuries on Cheng Shaoshang's face and said:
"I just had an appointment with Ling Buyi to go to Wan Mansion today, so I followed him to Prince Ruyang's Mansion first."

Cheng Shaoshang was surprised:
"For no reason, why did you go to Wanfu?"

She seemed to remember something:
"I almost forgot, you are the prince, I guess you have some official business, so you'd better not tell me."

Yang Jiao laughed:

"Is it because I didn't tell you my true origin?"

Cheng Shaoshang flat-mouthed:
"How dare I, a little girl, blame the arrogant descendants of the Tian family?"

Yang Jiao healed the injury on her face and said with a smile:
"Due to your childhood situation, you have been extremely defensive and have already built a high wall in your heart. If I explain it like this, you will probably hide away, so I have no choice but to tell you my origin from the side. First, let me tell you Cao Cheng sent a message and gave you a token."

Cheng Shaoshang snorted:
"Don't expect me to forgive you so easily."

She changed the subject:
"Unless you give me ten pots of peach blossoms to get me drunk. In the past, you said that I was still young and shouldn't drink too much. But now that I'm about to get haircut, I've also figured out a method of cultivation, and I'm no longer the same person I used to be."

Yang Jiao shook his head:

"You are really a drunkard and a glutton for drinking. I'll follow you."

He took out a book from his sleeves and said with a hint of naughtiness:
"I have compiled the method of practicing flute music into a book. If you practice according to it, you will gain something. I guess you may not have a peaceful life tonight, so please pray for yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yuanyi's voice came from the carriage not far away:

"Niao Niao, your time is precious, Your Highness. If you can't delay it, why not hurry up and get in the carriage."

Cheng Shaoshang's face fell and he sighed softly:

"It's really like what I thought before. Even if my father and mother come back, I still don't know whether the life will be good or bad."

"The time I am at home now is not as comfortable as the time I spent in the village with you."

Yang Jiao raised his eyebrows:
"You are saying this because you want me to hire you as soon as possible and marry you back."

Cheng Shaoshang's cheeks were slightly red and he cursed uncomfortably:
"Marry your big-headed ghost."

After saying that, she turned around and walked quickly onto the carriage.

Twilight.

Cheng Mansion lobby, Jiuzhui Hall.

Cheng Shaoshang looked like he was just sitting on his knees, as if he was about to tilt to the floor. When he spoke, his voice was even weaker:
"I've met my father and mother."

Cheng Shi stood up quickly:

"My son, I heard from your mother that the injury on your face has been healed by the Fourth Prince, but why do you look so haggard?"

After hearing this, Cheng Shaoshang coughed a few times, looking weak and unable to take care of himself.

Xiao Yuanyi had long experienced his daughter's ability to pretend to be soft, and immediately said coldly:

"Okay, I saw you jumping up and down when you got off the carriage before."

She looked at Cheng Shi:
"General, don't just look after your own children."

He frowned and replied:
"My Niao Niao's face was injured. Could it be that other little girls also had their faces injured?"

"Fortunately, this time we have the Fourth Prince's superb healing methods. You know, we Niao Niao haven't been married to anyone yet. If our face doesn't get better, it will be delayed for a lifetime."

Xiao Yuanyi ignored her husband who was trying to fish in troubled waters and asked directly:
"Shao Shang, let me ask you, do you realize your mistake today?"

Before Cheng Shaoshang could reply, Cheng Shi said:

"Look at how pitifully she was beaten, why do you still ask her what's wrong?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Shaoshang immediately said:
"Niao Niao knows he is wrong."

Xiao Yuanyi glanced:
"Okay, then tell me, what's wrong?"

Cheng Shaoshang pondered for a long time:

"From now on, no matter who bullies my cousin, deliberately humiliates my daughter, or slanders the Cheng family, my daughter will not hit anyone."

"Father and mother, even if someone wants to kill Niao Niao in the future, Niao Niao will never hurt anyone again." She said as if she was exhausted, lying on her side on the floor of the lobby, and ended with a few coughs.

"Cough cough cough."

When Cheng Shi saw this, he felt very distressed and wanted to help him, but he saw Xiao Yuanyi's face was stern:
"Don't contradict me in anger. Don't you have any elders in your family? If you are right, why don't you ask your elders to discuss it, but you have to fight?"

"I don't care whether you sincerely admit your mistake or not. You must go to General Wang's mansion tomorrow to apologize to Wang Jian."

Cheng Shaoshang didn't hesitate at all:
"I can't go. Wang Yao deserves to be beaten. Besides, Xu Xian is very fair today. He knows that they were the ones who harmed others first, so he asked them to apologize to me and my cousin."

Xiao Yuanyi slammed the table in front of her:
"So brave."

She stood up and walked to Cheng Shaoshang:

"Do you think that Xu Xian is your friend now? He is the fourth prince of the current dynasty. There is no way that our Cheng family can reach higher."

"Do you know that after today's incident, there will be many aristocratic families in the city who will look at the Cheng family in a different light."

"How many girls from aristocratic families will regard you as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh."

"In just one afternoon, the families of those noble girls sent people to their homes to give gifts and apologize."

"Since you are still stubborn until now, I want to see if you realize your mistake today."

She shouted outside the lobby:
"Come on."

Immediately, Cheng Song and Cheng Shaogong ran in, knelt in front of Xiao Yuanyi, and each hugged one leg:

"Mom, calm down."

"Niao Niao has already been beaten, but you can't be beaten again."

"Yeah, we can't fight anymore."

As a female general who joined the army, Xiao Yuanyi naturally had martial arts skills, so she was so powerful that she knocked her two sons away:
"Get out of here, get everyone out of here."

Cheng Shi saw Xiao Yuanyi angrily turning his back to them, and quickly took advantage of the opportunity and said:
"Look at how angry your mother is. Why don't you just get out of here and wait here to receive your punishment? Get out of here, get out of here."

As he spoke, he waved his hand to take Cheng Shaoshang out.

As the sound of footsteps went away, Xiao Yuanyi suddenly turned around, his face stagnant, and pointed to the place where Cheng Shaoshang was lying just now:
"Who told her to get out?"

As she spoke, she was about to chase her back, but Cheng Shi said hurriedly:

"Didn't you tell them all to get out of here? I told them all to get out of here."

Xiao Yuanyi put her hands on her hips and said angrily:
"Then why don't you get out?"

Cheng Shi said truthfully:
"I don't dare. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back if I get out."

On the other side, Cheng Shaoshang, who was temporarily safe, began to discuss countermeasures with his two brothers.

Among them, Cheng Song was the first to say:

"As long as you are still in the house, you will not be able to escape this beating. My mother has never failed to punish someone. Niao Niao, what are you going to do now?"

Cheng Shaogong immediately answered:
"Why don't you use my usual method and run."

Cheng Song couldn't help but clap his hands:

"It is indeed a good idea. Every time the young palace runs out, hides and comes back again, if my mother gets too angry, she will always take some measures."

Cheng Shaogong interrupted hurriedly:
"It's not every time. There are one or two times out of ten that we can use our discretion."

Cheng Shaoshang said indifferently:
"That's better than waiting for punishment without hope."

Lianfang advised:

"Female young master, why don't you go back and admit your mistake?"

Cheng Shaoshang asked back:
"You want me to go back and get beaten?"

Lianfang shook his head repeatedly.

"I'll never do anything that stupid in my life."

After Cheng Shaoshang finished speaking, she saw Cheng Shuo rushing over. She said extremely guiltily:

"Niao Niao, it's all my fault. If I hadn't been careful, how could I have fallen into their trap, let alone such a big disaster."
