Chapter 1927

Duke Ding's Prefecture.

The warm autumn sun shone lazily through the clouds onto the ground of Duke Ding's Prefecture, and the air was filled with a faint milky fragrance and a hint of... unspeakable odor.

"She peed!"

"She definitely peed. It's simply insane. She treats her father like a chamber pot!"

Gao Yang looked hopeless, squeezing out words from between his teeth.

He was holding the jade-carved Junjun, and the little one opened her dark, round eyes, looking innocent and naive.

But on Gao Yang's arm, the exquisitely crafted cloud-brocade cuff was being soaked by a warm current at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Chu Qingluan had a beautiful face and was lying on a recliner nearby, sunbathing, looking very comfortable.

Hearing Gao Yang's cry for help, Chu Qingluan's eyes flowed with a playful smile.

"Tsk!"

"If the officials and the world knew that the dignified first poison strategist of Da Qian, the Living Yama regarded as a devil by the Xiongnu, would show such helplessness and be so at a loss, I'm afraid their jaws would drop."

Chu Qingluan joked, but her movements were very agile.

She got up from the recliner and took the babbling Junjun from Gao Yang's arms.

"Lüluo, go get a basin of clean water."

Gao Yang looked at the large patch on his cuff, feeling numb, and hurriedly ordered.

This smell was simply incredible!

Lüluo smiled and hurriedly brought a basin of clean water.

Gao Yang changed his clothes first, then scrubbed his arm hard, and felt much better.

When he came out, he found that Junjun was no longer in Chu Qingluan's arms.

"Where is Junjun?"

Gao Yang asked curiously.

"Mother missed Junjun, so the wet nurse just took her away."

Gao Yang nodded upon hearing this.

"That's good, that's good. I don't want to take care of this child for even a single day."

"It's just right for you and me to enjoy some time as a couple."

Gao Yang looked at Chu Qingluan and sighed heavily.

Upon hearing this, Chu Qingluan's phoenix eyes widened slightly, and her voice rose slightly due to shock.

"You're bold today. Can you do it?"

Gao Yang's face suddenly darkened upon hearing this.

Although he didn't mean that, Chu Qingluan's words after misunderstanding were too hurtful!

Shouldn't he teach her a lesson?

But when the words reached his lips, Gao Yang sighed deeply and recognized reality.

In this world, there are only oxen that die from exhaustion, not fields that are plowed to ruin.

Why look for trouble for yourself?

He smiled sheepishly and said, "Qingluan, misunderstanding! This couple time is not that couple time, it's purely... resting for a while, chatting, and drinking tea!"

"I thought so."

Chu Qingluan nodded teasingly, her eyes carrying a hint of understanding and a smile that said 'I knew it'.

This humiliating look made Gao Yang secretly resolve.

He should knock some sense into Gao Changwen.

Although Chu Qingluan looked teasing, she was actually relieved inside.

It had been six or seven days since Gao Yang resigned, and even Duke Ding's Prefecture, which used to be visited by countless people, had become deserted.

But strangely, there was no movement in the palace, and Wu Zhao did not issue any imperial decrees.

This matter seemed to have been forgotten.

Under this eerie calm, Gao Yang could still be "bullied" by Junjun and have the heart to think about other things, which made her slightly put down her hanging heart.

At this time.

Outside the small courtyard, a crisp and cheerful voice suddenly broke the brief silence.

Gao Ling ran in, jumping and bouncing, wearing two cute double buns.

"Brother, help me look at the sentence construction left by the teacher. If it's not well-constructed, I'll get hit on the palm."

Gao Ling clutched a few sheets of rough bamboo paper in her palm, staring at Gao Yang pitifully.

Gao Yang nodded in agreement.

"This brother of yours really must help you look."

While speaking, he also said to Chu Qingluan, who was a bit puzzled, "Qingluan, you don't know, before I went on the expedition, I also tutored Ling'er in sentence construction!"

"It was simply... indescribable!"

"That time it was to use 'brother', 'eat', 'dog', 'watching', 'on the ground', 'shit', 'I', 'lying down' to construct a sentence."

"As a result, do you know what sentence Ling'er constructed?"

Gao Yang asked Chu Qingluan.

Gao Ling's small face turned red instantly, and she scratched her head awkwardly, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"What?"

Chu Qingluan's curiosity was piqued, and she instinctively felt that this sentence... must be very explosive!

"Ling'er constructed a sentence—'I watched my brother lying on the ground eating dog shit.'"

Pfft!

Chu Qingluan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Gao Yang looked hopeless and continued: "It didn't end there. I let Ling'er construct another sentence, and she came up with another one: 'The dog is lying on the ground watching my brother eat shit.'"

"Anyway, no matter how she constructed it, her brother was either eating shit or eating dog shit."

Pfft!

Chu Qingluan laughed.

This sentence construction was indeed heaven-defying.

Gao Ling's face turned red, both shy and anxious. She stuffed the bamboo paper into Gao Yang's hand and said, "Brother, a hero doesn't mention his past courage. Look at this one. I constructed this one very well, it's perfect."

"Oh? The little girl is grown up and has self-esteem. Okay, brother will look at your 'masterpiece'!"

Gao Yang took the bamboo paper from Gao Ling's hand, and his gaze scanned it.

"Please use 'midsummer', 'cicada chirping', 'youth', 'sun', 'sunrise' to construct a sentence."

Chu Qingluan nodded and praised: "Combining these words, the artistic conception should be extremely beautiful."

Gao Yang also nodded.

However, for some reason, the instinct of a poison strategist always gave him a bad premonition.

The two of them scanned downward together.

But the next second, they were instantly frozen in place, looking petrified.

Gao Ling was full of expectation, "Brother, how is it?"

Gao Yang's eyes widened, he took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Not bad, very good!"

Chu Qingluan covered her chest, her beautiful eyes wide, obviously very shocked.

Because the two sentences Gao Ling constructed were—'In midsummer, I 【did】 the sun-like youth sunrise cicada chirping.'

And—'The midsummer youth was 【did】 by the cicada chirping sound.'

"This sentence is good. When the teacher sees it, he will definitely praise you, Ling'er."

"Really?"

Gao Ling was full of expectation.

"Really, how could brother lie to you! Boldly give it to the teacher, remember, be confident!"

"Hmm!"

"Thank you, brother!"
