Chapter 124: Nine Deaths and One Life
"Hey, Liu Feng, what's wrong with you? Why is your walking posture so strange?" Huo Yuanruo's unkind voice sounded, and it was obvious that he was holding back something bad.
Liu Feng's body stiffened, and then he looked at Ye Tianyu with some shame and anger. Ye Tianyu waved his hands quickly, "I didn't say anything." It was the boy who guessed it himself, so it's not his fault.
Liu Feng obviously didn't believe it. Just as he was about to say something, he heard his father ask suspiciously, "Huh? Yuan Ruo is here too, why didn't I see you just now?"
Huo Yuanruo's lips twitched. He was so tall and strong, why couldn't he see him...
"Hahahaha, Yuan Ruo, don't blame my dad. He said you were born with a transparent physique, so you are always ignored."
As a result, Liu Sheng spoke again, "Hey? Where does the dog barking come from? It's so loud." Then he pretended to look around, but didn't look in the direction of Liu Feng.
Liu Feng was stunned, his father was too reckless, calling him a dog, then wouldn’t he also be...
This time, not only Huo Yuanruo, but even Qingyu couldn't help laughing.
Xu shook her head helplessly. "You are such a grown-up, why are you arguing with a child? What are you talking about?"
Liu Sheng didn't even look at Liu Feng and walked straight into the house. "What am I talking about? Human words. If I had known that this dog was so disobedient, I might as well have raised a dog."
Xu suppressed the urge to take action, took a deep breath, and took Li Mulan's hand, "Let's go in too," then looked at Qingyu and Huo Yuanruo, "Qingyu, Yuanruo, you come in too."
Qingyu nodded with a smile, Huo Yuanruo ran to Liu Sheng in two steps, glanced at his butt with ill intent, and then slapped him on the butt.
Then, the howling sound like a pig being slaughtered resounded throughout the Liu Mansion.
"Ah...Huo Yuanruo, I'm going to kill you!"
Li Mulan was speechless watching the two people making a fuss, "Yuanyuan, what's wrong with you? You hit me so hard, did you do it on purpose?"
Huo Yuanruo curled her lips. Isn't it obvious?
Liu Feng's forehead was covered with sweat, it seemed that he was seriously injured.
"Huh? No way? I didn't use any strength?" Huo Yuanruo felt a little nervous when he saw him. He didn't think he would really hurt him.
Liu Feng glared at him with gritted teeth, "Don't you know how hard you hit me?" His father spanked him fifty times on the buttocks, a full fifty times...
Xu felt a little distressed, "Feng'er, are you okay? Do you want to ask the court doctor to come and take a look?"
Liu Feng immediately refused, "No, mother, I'm fine, I'm fine, don't call the court doctor over."
Liu Sheng glanced at him sideways, snorted coldly and said nothing.
Liu Feng looked at his father aggrievedly. He had already beaten him, but he was still angry. This old man was too narrow-minded.
Li Mulan advised, "Xiao Feng, you can't be afraid to see a doctor. You have to see a doctor no matter where you are injured."
Liu Feng's face flushed red. It seemed that his junior uncle also knew about it. He felt aggrieved and didn't dare to say anything.
"I told him to ask the court doctor to come and take a look, but he insisted on arguing with me. I don't even know if he applied the medicine or not." Xu shook her head helplessly.
"Mom, apply the medicine, apply the medicine, please, please don't say anything." This is too embarrassing, he has no face, wuwuwuwuwuwu...
Ye Tianyu smiled and said, "Master's wife, don't worry, I gave Xiaofeng the medicine."
Liu Feng immediately got furious when he heard this, and shouted with round eyes, "Who told you to say that!" Although, with that natural baby face and those round eyes, there was no deterrent effect at all...
Ye Tianyu choked, "Everyone knows this anyway, what's the point of taking medicine?"
Huo Yuanruo could no longer hold back his laughter, "Hahahahahaha... Liu Feng, you've been... hahahahaha... seen naked by Senior Brother Tianyu... hahahahaha."
After Huo Yuanruo said this, Ye Tianyu felt a little uncomfortable. What... Hey? What did he say? Just apply some medicine?
Mrs. Xu was also a little embarrassed. "Okay, you kids, your words are becoming more and more unruly. All right, if you don't have time, go out and play. Don't disturb us talking to Xiaojiu."
Huo Yuanruo winked at the two of them, and Ye Tianyu immediately moved and walked out the door. Although Liu Feng was a little reluctant, he followed.
Qingyu didn't want to disturb the three people's conversation, so she followed them out and closed the door behind her.
"Hurry, tell your sister-in-law, are the Li family really your family? Are you sure? Are they nice to you? Who are they?" Xu asked several questions in a row, making Li Mulan laugh.
"Tell me, you ask so many questions at once. What is Xiaojiu going to say?" Liu Sheng touched his beard helplessly, shook his head and laughed.
Xu glared at him and said, "Then tell me slowly."
Xu really treated Li Mulan as her own daughter. After all, when Li Mulan was first brought back to Lingxiao Palace, she and Liu Sheng took care of her. In addition, she only had one son, so how could she resist such a cute and tender little girl? She really held her in the palm of her hand. Especially at that time, Li Mulan was in poor health, and the couple was very worried about her.
Li Mulan patted the back of Xu's hand in a soothing manner, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, they are all very good to me. They are my family, for sure. The Li family was exiled back then, and I was lost during the exile. My mother went crazy for many years because of this, and even now she can't stand too much stimulation. They had no way to look for me back then, so they let me wander around for so many years. I also have a grandfather who is a very good person, and I also have my second uncle and third uncle. Oh, and I have a twin brother who looks a lot like me."
Xu became interested when she heard this, "Twin brothers?"
"Well, I'll show it to my sister-in-law someday."
"Okay, okay, he looks a lot like our Xiaojiu. I must take a look. He must be a handsome young man."
Liu Sheng stroked his beard, "What are your plans after you come back?" Liu Sheng had heard some rumors, but they were all uncertain. In addition, he had never been interested in the affairs of the court, so he knew very little.
"Don't worry, big brother. My grandfather will definitely be reinstated this time. As for the future, we'll just have to take it one step at a time."
"Are you sure? I heard that your grandfather and the prime minister have always been at odds. Can he let your grandfather return to the court?"
Li Mulan sneered, "The court of the Great Chu is not decided by the Prime Minister's Office. This is what the Regent said to my grandfather himself."
"The Regent?" Liu Sheng sat up straight. "Has he met your grandfather?"
Li Mulan nodded. "The Regent went to Mobei in person and met my grandfather. We were able to return to Beijing safely this time thanks to the Regent."
"What do you mean? Are there any obstacles for you to come back?" Liu Sheng wanted to find a new way to teach and educate people because he didn't like the secrets of the court, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know anything. It was precisely because he knew that he didn't want to enter the government.
"It's more than an obstruction. It's a near-death experience. Without us and the people left behind by the Regent, even ten Li families wouldn't be able to return to Kyoto."
