Very soon,
this pleasure boat was once again filled with laughter and joy,
the Eighth Prince even composed a poem and recited it loudly.
Gradually,
the noise from the nearby boats and the shore gradually returned to normal.
...
On the other side,
Nian Yao rejected Deng Man's suggestion to ride fast into the palace and instead sat in his family's carriage.
Inside the carriage,
Nian Yao said to the trusted Fengchao internal guard beside this Regent:
"Bench, don't panic. Panicking won't help. The more crucial the moment, the more we can't panic. The more you panic, the easier it is to mess things up. I know you have a natural talent for martial arts, but that water-floating lightness skill wasn't the right thing to show today."
Deng Man also belongs to Lord Pingye's family, just a bit younger than Nian Yao. When Deng Man was young, he liked to hang around Nian Yao, so he spoke without much restraint.
"Yes, Brother Nian, I was reckless."
