Only then did he realize that Long Chi had taken the attack on purpose, so that he was able to make an escape.
Even so, it was Long Xuan who had been too careless and presented him with the opportunity.
"I'm willing to accept your punishment, Royal Uncle!" Long Xuan lowered his head and his voice carried a hint of dejection.
Long Yang had already found out about this earlier; hearing about it again from Long Xuan's mouth did not affect him much.
"You are not to blame for this. Moreover, it was much to your credit that the Prince of Xuyang's rebels were eliminated so quickly. It matters little that Long Chi escaped. He no longer poses a threat to the imperial court."
Long Xuan felt relieved. "Thank you, Royal Uncle!"
"That should be enough for today. You've been away from the capital for quite a long time and your mother is probably worried about you. You should head home early." Long Yang waved him away.
