Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Nangong Song lay behind the door, looking through the crack at Gu Chan and the other person who were eating with gusto outside, and kept swallowing his saliva.

Nangong Jin grabbed his arm and said weakly, "Father, I can't stand it anymore, please think of a solution!"

"Gu...Gu Chan...open the door and let us go out to eat. As long as you can let us eat, we can discuss anything!" Nangong Song shouted hurriedly.

Gu Chan paused, grinned, and felt happy immediately.

She had done so much preparation, and naturally what she was waiting for was Nangong Song's words. She didn't waste any words, and waved directly at Yan Xishan and ordered, "Go open the door for them, and help them come over and sit down."

"Yes, Lord." Yan Xishan responded quickly, stood up and ran to open the locked door, and helped the father and son, who had already exhausted their strength, to sit down at the stone table.

Nangong Jin was already extremely hungry. Looking at the table full of delicious food in front of him, he could no longer hold back and reached out to grab some food and stuff it into his mouth.

"boom!"

Gu Chan seized the opportunity, raised her fist, and hit him hard in the face with a bang, knocking him backwards and hitting the ground heavily.

"Ouch...Father...It hurts so much...It hurts so much..." Nangong Jin lay on the ground, covering his face with his hands, and screaming in pain like a pig being slaughtered.

Nangong Song leaned on the stone table, glared at Gu Chan fiercely and said, "Why did you hit my son?"

"Did I let you eat?" Gu Chan said coldly.

"You... okay, okay, tell me! What do you want us to eat?" Nangong Song asked while suppressing his hunger.

Gu Chan picked up a cup of rice wine and put it to her lips. After taking a sip, she sneered and said, "Aren't you very powerful? You helped the prince capture Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying. Then I would like to ask, where are they now?"

"It's on General Shuiyue's warship. If you want someone, go ask her for it! What's the point of bullying us?" Nangong Song said angrily.

"Did you dismiss Cheng Hao from the position of Nancheng County Magistrate?" Gu Chan asked.

"I am a relative of the emperor in Nancheng. How could I have the ability to dismiss the imperial officials? It was the prince's order to arrest them, and my father and I were acting according to their orders." Nangong Song said cunningly.

Now that they, father and son, are in a weak position, they have to push all the problems onto the prince. This way, they can better protect themselves. After all, Gu Chan today is different from the past. He still holds the title of the seventeenth prince of Tiancang Kingdom!

He is just a prince of Nancheng. Compared with the prince of a country, his status and position are slightly inferior.

Gu Chan saw through it at a glance. This bastard was playing tricks on her, but she did not expose him. Instead, she pretended to be deceived and said, "It seems that I really wronged you. You were forced to do this by the prince!"

"Yes! Otherwise, if we really want to take action against Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying, would they still be alive now?" Nangong Song said.

"Okay! Then you guys eat! We'll talk after you're full." Gu Chan said with a sneer.

Seeing that she had given in, Nangong Song quickly helped his son, who was lying on the ground, to sit up.

Afterwards, the father and son were like two hungry dogs. They grabbed the food on the table and stuffed it into their mouths in big mouthfuls.

Yan Xishan, who was sitting nearby, couldn't stand it anymore and said hurriedly, "Prince, Little Prince, eat slowly, no one is going to snatch the food from you! Come on, drink the wine smoothly, don't choke again."

After saying that, he quickly pushed the wine jug in front of them.

The father and son kept putting mouthfuls of food and sips of wine into their mouths.

Not until they had finished all the dishes on the table and drank three pots of wine did they finally pat their stomachs in satisfaction.

Gu Chan stared at the two and said, "Are you full?"

"I'm full. It would be great if I could have a pot of good fragrant tea to rinse my mouth." Nangong Song said while burping.

Yan Xishan quickly ordered his servants to quickly make a pot of fragrant tea to entertain the guests.

Gu Chan sat there and watched quietly, not in a hurry. After the father and son rinsed their mouths and were satisfied, she said coldly, "King Nanxian, it's almost dark now. You should take a boat to Tiancang River and help me find General Shuiyue to ask for someone!"

"Ah? Oh my gosh?" Nangong Song said with his eyes wide open.

"What else? Send it back to me? Think about it carefully. Cheng Hao and Yuan Ying in exchange for your son, this is a win for you no matter how you compare it to a business deal. After all, their identities are far less noble than your son's. If they die, I will only lose two loyal subordinates, but if your son dies, you will lose the only descendants of your family line!" Gu Chan said with a grin.

After saying that, she suddenly shouted towards the outside of the courtyard, "Someone, tie up Nangong Jin for me!"

"Yes, lord." Two officers who had been prepared outside the courtyard responded immediately. Then they rushed in with ropes and quickly tied Nangong Jin up.

Nangong Jin was so scared that he trembled all over and said, "Father, you have to save me! This little devil can do anything, don't let him kill me."

"Hmph! After all, I am a relative of the Tiancang Empire and the Wise King of Nancheng. I really don't believe that you dare to kill my son. What's more, the prince wants to deal with you now, but he can't find a suitable reason! Just try and kill my son." Nangong Song immediately became tough, and wanted to use the title of prince to scare Gu Chan.

Gu Chan was not afraid at all. She laughed and said, "You are right. I really don't dare to kill him, but I didn't say I would kill him just now! The method to break him is very simple! Just take a knife and cut his crotch, and that will be the end of it, right?"

"Ah? Father, he actually wants to choose me." Nangong Jin screamed in fear.

After all this time, he finally understood now that Gu Chan really had no intention of killing him, but the key problem was that drawing lots for him made him feel more painful than killing him!

And just like Gu Chan said, he is the only bloodline of the Nanxian King, and the Nangong family is counting on him to have more children and continue the family line in the future! If Gu Chan really got the nomination, wouldn't the Nangong family suffer a great loss?

Nangong Song's face instantly turned livid, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you Gu Chan, you are so cruel! I will go to the Tiancang River to find General Shuiyue to help you get the person, this should be fine!"

"You escort King Nanxian to the official ship at Chang's wharf, give him two hundred officers and soldiers, and let him take them to ask General Shuiyue for the person." Gu Chan ordered with a sneer.

The two officers responded in unison.

Nangong Song's face turned ashen with anger. He stood up angrily and left with the two officers.

After he left, Gu Chan ordered Yan Xishan to untie the rope tied around Nangong Jin.

But as soon as the rope was untied, Nangong Jinzhen was so scared that he collapsed to the ground, and when he looked at Gu Chan, his eyes were full of fear!
