Chapter 704: Changle's Letter

When Changle left, he only left a letter in his room and said nothing else. Before leaving, he had also arranged his work, which was actually just that of his school. Now he had nothing left to teach, because this subject of his could only be considered as just starting, and it could be considered an elective; students who were interested could go and listen.

The textbook was one that Changle had compiled on how to distinguish plants, as well as some characteristics of plants he had summarized, which ones were of the same species and family, what they looked like, and what their uses were. However, most of it was speculation. If students had their own understanding, they could all go to Changle to discuss it. As long as they could convince Changle and it was indeed verified, then the textbook could be modified.

Current students, even if they studied on their own, could understand Changle's material. Students could also flip through the "Collection of Grass and Trees" that Changle had produced at will, so Changle left very reassured.

On the first day, no one noticed that Changle was not there. At noon, everyone did not eat at home, or rather, because people were often not all present, even if one Changle was missing, everyone did not feel there was any problem.

In the evening, Baifeng was working overtime, and Yulong was also working overtime. They returned very late and went straight to sleep upon returning. Sui and Chinv also did not have time to ask why Changle seemed not to have been seen all day. Changle's work shouldn't be busy now, and there shouldn't be anything requiring overtime, but seeing that the two grown men did not care, Sui and the other two did not bother. In Huaxia, could Changle possibly have any accidents?

On the second day, Changle and the others had already gone far downstream. Changle was still worried and afraid on the way, fearing that Baifeng would discover it and send someone to chase him. But until the evening of the second day, no boat was found behind him. Only then did Changle feel relieved. Now that he had already gone so far, even if Baifeng saw that letter, he probably wouldn't let him go back again.

On the evening of the second day, Baifeng and Yulong rarely did not work overtime and returned a little earlier. The whole family could also gather together to have a meal. Zhi was now also very familiar as she took her seat, waiting for the maid to serve the meal.

After Baifeng sat blankly for a while, he suddenly sat up in shock. Looking at Sui and Chinv, he said, "Where is Changle? Why do I feel like I haven't seen him for a long time? Why is he not here tonight either? He shouldn't have anything to be busy with, right?"

Sui was also very puzzled: "I haven't seen Changle since yesterday. You didn't ask either, so I thought you had arranged some work for him."

Baifeng suddenly felt something was a bit wrong. Combined with Changle's previous behavior, he felt that it was very likely that Changle had run off to the Xuanyuan Tribe by himself.

He asked several maids: "Have you seen Changle these past few days?"

The maids shook their heads, and one of them said: "I saw Changle Prince the day before yesterday. He ate lunch here, but since yesterday, I haven't seen him again."

Baifeng leaned his back against the chair, feeling inexplicably flustered inside. He pointed outside with his finger: "Go, call the guards outside here for me."

The maid hurriedly lowered her head and exited the door, then trotted downstairs to find the guards guarding the Royal Family. Although she was a Slave, she also inexplicably began to feel anxious. She felt that this matter now seemed a bit serious.

The Small Team leader of the guards who was on duty, after instructing the other teammates, hurriedly followed the maid. On the way, he hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? Is there something the King is looking for me for?"

The maid lowered her head and said softly: "I haven't seen Changle Prince for two days. The King seems a bit anxious, not knowing where he went."

The guard was also a bit panicked for a moment and began to run his brain frantically, recalling when he had last seen Changle. If something really happened to Changle Prince, then they would be greatly derelict in their duty and would probably have to pay with their lives to apologize.

The atmosphere at the dining table was a bit cold. Everyone felt that Changle might have really run into some trouble. Everyone was looking at the doorway, and no one moved their chopsticks.

Soon the guard was brought in by the maid. As soon as the guard arrived, he immediately knelt on one knee and greeted the King of Huaxia. The maid also retreated at the right time and even pulled the door shut. She felt that the following words might not be something she could listen to.

Baifeng asked the guard directly: "Changle Prince, when was the last time you saw him?"

The guard had already recalled it and hurriedly said: "Yesterday morning."

"What did Changle go to do? Do you know?"

The guard shook his head: "I don't know about these, but I saw that Changle Prince was carrying a bag at the time, like that set of clothes for working in the wild."

Baifeng thought to himself that it was bad; this kid definitely ran away secretly. So he didn't eat his meal and decided to go to his room to see if he had left any letter or something, because in the stories he had told them before, people leaving home would leave a letter for others. Whether it was a farewell letter or something else, they would explain why they were leaving. Baifeng felt that Changle should also do so.

Sui and the others also anxiously followed. A group of people walked toward Changle's room in such a grand manner. The Slaves they met on the road all immediately stood on both sides of the road and lowered their heads. Only after Baifeng and the others passed by would they continue to do their own work.

Baifeng found Changle's courtyard. The door was closed. Baifeng respected his sons' privacy very much, so he even knocked on the door. After knocking several times and seeing no one, he pushed the door open directly.

Walking to Changle's study, the study did not have a lock latch; it just symbolically had a wooden stick inserted between the two handles, serving the purpose of not being blown open by the wind.

Seeing this, Baifeng knew that his guess was about right, so he pulled out the wooden stick and pushed the door open directly. The room was very dark. Yulong immediately stepped forward to find a lamp and lit it, which allowed them to see something in the room.

The entire study was very clean and tidy. There were many books on the bookshelf, and even more paper that had not yet been used. And on the desk, an envelope was very obviously placed.

Baifeng took it and looked. The envelope had the words "To my Benevolent Father" written on it. Baifeng's mouth twitched. Good fellow, "Benevolent Father" indeed. The opening of the envelope was not even glued shut. Was this because he was afraid that it would be too troublesome for him to tear it open?

The others all crowded over, feeling very panicked inside, because Changle was really not there. Only this letter could tell where Changle had gone.

"Father, I have decided to go to the Xuanyuan Tribe. I feel that life is short and time is too tight. If I keep waiting like this, I don't know when my career will be completed.

Therefore, I left alone without your consent. Please forgive me. This time I found fishermen from the Agricultural Phylum, two Boats. I also hope that you will not punish them after they return. This was all my decision; I did not tell them the truth.

Your son is not afraid of danger; I am only afraid of achieving nothing in my whole life. Therefore, I request that you do not make me come back this time. Just let me go to the Xuanyuan Tribe.

Your son, Changle."
