When Xue Qiansheng and Xue Xingran saw this, they quickly went to pull Prince Shou out.
Prince Shou had no choice but to get up and lazily get down from the carriage. The moment he came down, he tilted his head and said, “Happy birthday.” Then, he went to his room to take a nap.
Shao Youyue didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Xue Yan also didn’t know what to say.
Originally, he wanted this younger brother to be his successor so that he could abdicate as soon as possible.
There were two reasons. First, his younger brother was extremely smart. Second, his younger brother was his biological younger brother and also the legitimate son of his father. If he abdicated the throne, no one would be more acceptable to everyone in Da Ling County than him.
However, his younger brother was too lazy, so there was nothing he could do to convince him to become the Emperor.
Fortunately, the administration of officials was clear and everyone was outstanding in their work. He was still the Emperor, but he had not found a suitable successor at all. Good thing there were not many things that he needed to personally handle.
Yu Hongyan was still confronting her son, Xue Shi. She pointed at Xue Shi with the twig in her hand and said, “No matter what, you can’t drive the carriage by yourself. Why don’t you take a look at how old you are!? What if there was an accident? You can’t keep doing this!”
Xue Shi immediately said, “Mother, why do you always think that I’m the one planning all of this? It’s obvious that whether it’s skipping class or driving the carriage like this, it’s all because of Xue Bai.” He hurriedly called out to Xue Bai, “Isn’t that right, Xue Bai?”
“Yes,” Xue Bai replied with a silly smile.
Li Hehua smiled and patted her son’s head. This silly son of hers. He thought that his family didn’t know that he was the scapegoat every time.
Yu Hongyan scoffed out of anger. “You keep making Xue Bai take the blame even after all these yours. How can you still have the cheek to do so now?!”
“It’s really me. It has nothing to do with them.” Xue Bai said. He even smiled foolishly. Extremely loyal to Xue Shi.
“You’re a good kid.” Yu Hongyan laughed in anger, but did not forget to rub his head.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan, however, felt that all the children were very smart. They knew that their family wouldn’t do anything to him as long as Xue Bai took the blame. Because everyone in the family knew that Xue Bai would never do such a thing. However, there was no evidence to prove that he did it, so they knew they would be fine.
Such a strategy has worked out for them thus far.
Regardless of whether the strategy was good or not, or whether there was any technical content, it was fine as long as it was useful. Xue Shi and the others thought everything through, and they all laughed.
Xue Tiancheng didn’t laugh. However, he still had a smile on his face. He had been standing there obediently. At this moment, he spoke up and said to Yu Hongyan, “Xue Dagui helped prepare this carriage.”
Only Dagui would agree to let them come back.
Princess Jin immediately smiled and said, “He dared to give you the carriage because he knows nothing will happen to the children. Yu Hongyan, forget it. It’s not a bad thing that they’re back.”
“Yes, yes.” Li Hehua, Pei Fufu, and the others all agreed.
Only then did Yu Hongyan let it go.
Only then did Xue Shi stop hiding behind his grandmother. He first said to his grandmother, Liu Guixia, “Thank you, Grandma! You’re the best!” Then, he ran to Xue Yan and said, “Happy birthday!”
Xue Yan also smiled and patted his head. This was a mischievous person.
However, the children came back just to celebrate his birthday, so he was naturally happy with the outcome.
This carriage had to be sent to the stable, so Jiang Yue and Xue Yan each led one over. When they put the carriage in the stable and returned, they saw Xue Shi and the others curiously circling the baskets of coconuts, not knowing how to eat them.
