Serene Temple.
Uncle-Master Yichen, I've discovered that Uncle-Master Yixiu is always staring at a guest with a fragrant incense stick in his mouth. Do you know what's going on here?
Little Shamei asked, tilting her head.
Uncle-master really doesn't know that.
Yi Chen shook his head.
Ever since he had brought Hugh back, he had been especially concerned with the men who passed by, and had no idea what he was up to.
However, in this temple, he was the one who had the best relationship with him and was the only one who could understand what he was saying.
Where is your — Martial Uncle Xiu?
Yi Chen asked Little Shamei.
He should be in the backyard now.
Yes.
Yichen started to walk towards the backyard, sigh, this little carp spirit, what in the world was hard to say?
On a peach tree in the backyard, Hugh was standing on a branch picking peaches.
Perhaps it was because she was a demoness, but her cultivation was still shallow. Once she entered the temple, her magic wouldn't work and she would have to do some things herself.
Seeing Yichen walk over, Yixiu, who was on the tree, laughed and said, Gulugulu?
Senior brother has something he wants to talk to you about.
Yi Chen answered and raised his head. This Junior Brother of his was truly mischievous.
Gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp!
Translated as follows: We'll talk about it after the peach is picked.
However, the sky was unpredictable, and of course, it wasn't a big deal. The branch he stepped on broke, and he fell down, landing right on top of Yixiu.
And so, at last, what we had been waiting for happened.
Chenchen!
He rose from him with a cry of alarm.
Hmm?
Yi Chen was extremely surprised. Had he heard it correctly? He can talk?
Only when Hugh touched his lips did he realize how serious the consequences of that unexpected kiss had been.
Chenchen broke the color ring, Chenchen broke the color ring, Chenchen broke the color ring …
This sentence had been lingering in his mind all along.
Senior, I …
I have something to do. Yes, I need to do laundry. I need to do laundry. " Hugh fled in panic.
He came to the riverside with a basin full of clothes, feeling depressed.
Now that he had signed a contract with Chenchen, it meant that if he wanted to be able to talk everyday, he had to kiss her once.
But the problem was that he was a man, and it was very awkward for two men to kiss each other. Furthermore, the other party was also a monk, so he couldn't just break the rules again and again.
God, what should he do?
By the time he had finished washing his clothes, it was already night. He had left his clothes to dry in the yard.
After hanging up, he turned around and saw Yi Chen standing behind him.
Um, senior brother …
Meeting one another without being mentally prepared still felt a little awkward.
Yi Chen asked with a smile, Why are you running during the day?
I-I was afraid that Senior Brother would think that … After all, my original body was a woman.
Hugh didn't know how to explain himself.
Yichen didn't seem to care. It actually doesn't matter. It was just an accident. Besides, in Senior Brother's heart, you're just my Junior Brother. Senior Brother doesn't care what you used to be.
Really?
In other words, Chenchen did not think that he broke the ring? That's great.
Would Senior Brother lie to you?
Yichen knocked on the other party's smooth head, Oh right, why did you suddenly speak? Quickly tell me what's going on?
Hugh had promised that one day he would speak the human tongue. Now that it had finally come true, it was wonderful.
Well...
Secrets, secrets." He decided to keep it a secret. In order to maintain his good relationship with Chenchen, he decided to not let her know anything, especially the fact that he could talk while kissing her.
Alright, I won't force you.
Yi Chen was not someone who did not know when to advance and when to retreat. He could be considered to have taken good care of this junior brother of his.
Senior Brother, can you talk to me more tonight?
After all, from tomorrow onwards, he would probably never be able to speak human language again.
Yichen nodded. This was his first day of speaking, so all he needed to do was satisfy all of his needs.
The two monks talked a lot and recalled a lot of things, especially that part in Lu Town.
When he arrived, a monk came out to relieve himself. Seeing the two of them chatting happily, he could not help but walk over.
Senior Uncle Yixiu, are you able to speak?
The other party was obviously surprised.
Yes, Martial Nephew Ming.
I've always wondered what Martial Uncle Yixiu would look like when she was able to talk normally, but after seeing her today, I feel that she's really different. I feel that every word you say is gold.
I can't believe that Martial Nephew Ming is still greedy for money.
Hugh couldn't help but tease.
Amitabha, that's for sure. Martial Nephew is just an analogy.
He suddenly became serious.
Because to a monk, being greedy was like breaking a monk's ring.
Ming Zhong, hurry up and go to sleep. You still have morning lessons tomorrow.
Yi Chen said.
Yes, Uncle-Master Yichen.
Ming Zhong was very respectful to him and said, Good night, martial uncles.
When Ming Zhong left, Yixiu yawned and could not help but say: Are you going to sleep too? If I am really tired, then there is no need to forcefully endure. There will be plenty of time to talk in the future.
Hugh hurriedly shook his head. No, no, senior brother. Let's talk for a bit longer, just a bit more. Hmm …
Unfortunately, just as he finished saying this, his body collapsed. Luckily, Yi Chenzi was able to quickly support him.
You …
Yi Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry and could only send him back to his room.
The next day, he was unable to speak a single word.
Gulp, gulp, gulp!
The other people in the temple were all baffled. From what they heard, Martial Uncle Yixiu could speak last night. It wasn't like that after he slept for a night, right? Could it be that he was possessed?
Yi Chen was a participant from the beginning to the end of this matter, so it was very strange.
Tell me the truth. How can you speak?
Hugh shook his head stubbornly and said nothing.
Yi Chen bravely moved his lips over and gave his a dragonfly kiss, Is that so?
Yixiu's eyes widened. What was going on? Chenchen took the initiative to kiss him. Taking the initiative?
He could not react in time, as everything had happened too suddenly.
This delay lasted until a man and a woman came down the mountain.
If you had told me that was what you wanted me to say, I wouldn't have bothered to learn fish language.
Yi Chen held her hand and laughed.
If you had told me earlier that you could return back to the mortal world for me, I wouldn't have foolishly become your junior brother for so many days.
Yi Chen turned to look at the woman beside him. How would I know what you were thinking?
Don't you already know?
Grunting with a meaningful smile.
God makes you miss someone so you can meet someone better.
Chenchen, I want to carry him.
A certain girl was acting coquettishly.
How old are you already, and you still want to carry it?
Even though this was what the man said, he had already knelt down.
Reporting to Chenchen, this young girl is at the age of fifty-six!
CHAPTER 202 - REFUGE
General's Estate.
Madam, another giver has come.
Phantom Shadow felt very helpless.
Just send him away.
Wang Jing Rou was very straightforward.
Since she was married to Chu Jingli, she had to use him as an example.
Yes.
After retreating like a shadow, the person that came to meet him was a familiar person.
Yunyao, long time no see.
Yeah, I was bored in the palace so I came to find you.
Currently, the two oldest masters of the palace were no longer around. As a servant, she could also be considered to be someone whose 'ambition was hard to earn'.
Ru Ying took her hand and said, Since you've come, you should stay at the general's estate for a few more days. I can help you talk to Young Master.
This might not be in keeping with the rules.
She was a little hesitant.
It's not against the rules. No one cares about you right now.
Ru Ying did her best to persuade her. Once Young Master and Madam have fully recovered, we'll set out on our journey and continue to search for the Emperor's whereabouts.
Indeed, this condition was still tempting. She nodded and readily agreed.
However, why do you change your name to Madam now? Weren't they incompatible in the past?
She purposely teased him.
People change. After getting along with her, I feel that she's a pretty good woman, pretty compatible with Young Master.
It's good that you're free.
At first, she was still worried, but if Ruo Ying and Wang Jing Rou did not get along for a long time, it would be difficult for the general to be in the middle.
Now that the matter had been resolved, it was a good thing.
Let's go. Follow me to send away those guests who sent gifts. You don't even know how annoying they are.
It's normal to have such a big tree, but the general probably doesn't like it.
She spoke very objectively.
Young Master doesn't like them at all. He simply hates them. When I send them off, I always try to persuade him kindly. If it were Young Master, he wouldn't have such a good temper.
The two women walked towards the main hall as they spoke.
Chu Jingli walked over to Wang Jing's soft place and took out a golden hairpin from his chest pocket, I don't know which style you like, I just randomly picked one.
Wang Jing Rou smiled gently: As long as it's a gift from you, I like it. Come, help me insert it.
This was a gift from her husband. Although it wasn't a priceless gift, in her heart, it was worth more than a thousand gold.
Madam, you don't have to say it. Ever since you took over, the expenses of the general's estate have been reduced.
Before Wang Jing Rou got married, although she didn't waste money on her family, she spent quite a bit of money.
Now that she had entered her husband's house, she had been very thrifty and virtuous.
No matter what others say, we will live our own lives and stick to what we think is right.
She said this very sensibly.
Let's go, madam. Do you still want to eat Cloud Swallowing?
This couple had recently become infatuated with the Cloud Swallowing Art made by an old lady.
Alright, how about we bring some back to Ruo Ying as well?
Wang Jing Rou treated her servant well, and it was very compatible with the word 'soft' in her name.
Chu Jingli did not understand, How do we take them?
Darling, you really are confused.
Wang Jing Rou purposely teased, Can't you just bring the food basket?
Chu Jingli was ashamed, Madam is indeed intelligent.
Thus, the couple sneaked out through the back door.
When they arrived on the main street, the crowd was bustling with activity, and they were all discussing the great general's meritorious service to the enemy.
Wang Jing Rou listened patiently, but in the end, she heard — Amudu was actually killed by her husband.
The rumors were too frightening. There was no wind or waves.
She could testify that Amudu's death had nothing to do with General Xuan.
Although she was happy to be praised for her man's achievements, she found it hard to accept such false rumors.
Chu Jingli quickly stopped him, Forget it, let them say what they want. If you go and clarify it, then you can only make things worse.
Our great general ate the cloud with equanimity.
I'll just listen to my husband.
Wang Jing Rou normally wouldn't retort with what he said.
A sharp-eyed person stared at Chu Jingli for a long time and muttered, This person, why does he look like a great general?
Did you see wrongly? Will the great general come to this kind of place to eat?
Someone interrupted.
But it really does look like it.
The man looked at it for a long time before he shouted, The great general is here! I had the pleasure of meeting him once. He is the Great General.
Chu Jingli saw that his identity had been exposed, so he remained calm and collected. Suddenly, he grabbed his basket with his left hand, grabbed Wang Jing Rou's hand with his right hand, and ran away while the others weren't paying attention.
As a great general, it was rare for him to be in such a sorry state.
The people behind were relentlessly chasing him. It was with great difficulty that they finally got the chance to see the awe-inspiring great general. How could they just let him go like this?
The two of them ran, and the group chased after them. Finally, they turned into a medicine store.
General, Madam, you should hide here for now. I presume they won't suspect this place.
Suyun gave them a reassured smile.
This medicine store was the property of the Zhao Family. This Chu Jingli could be considered half a master of this place.
Yes.
Wang Jing Rou nodded, This time, it's all thanks to you saving us in time. Otherwise, who knows how much trouble we'll get into.
Those commoners were simply too crazy. How could they be so infatuated with their husband?
Madam is serious.
At this point in time, his performance on the battlefield had left a shadow in his heart. As such, he could not afford to listen to others praise him.
However, Madam, I still have to remind you guys that it's better not to go out recently. I wonder how many people in this world want to curry favor with the great general?
When a person became famous and powerful, it was easy to summon a pink butterfly
.
You're right.
Wang Jing Rou nodded, Husband, why don't we leave as soon as possible to find the whereabouts of the emperor?
It seemed like he wouldn't be able to stay in the capital anymore.
Chu Jingli had listened to her words and agreed. Moreover, he was worried about the safety of the emperor. If he left early, he would have more hope.
It was already afternoon by the time he returned to the manor. Wang Jing Rou had sweated from running so fast, although she was dry now, her body still felt uncomfortable, so she went to take a bath.
Chu Jingli entered his study and sent someone to invite the Prime Minister and Prince Fukai to discuss the matter.
This general invited you out of the blue. Sir, please forgive me.
Chu Jingli first expressed his apology.
The Prime Minister waved his hand, It's fine.
The reason I've called you two here today is to inform you two of something. This general has decided to set out in the future and trace the whereabouts of the Emperor.
After all, they had been missing for so long, and there was no sign of them. It was a cause for concern.
General Chu's loyalty is clear to see; we admire him.
The Prime Minister clasped his hands.
Chu Jingli smiled, The Prime Minister speaks very seriously. As the Prime Minister and Prince Ying are diligent in their work, taking over the imperial government in place of the Emperor, the people of Jiang Shan are able to accomplish a great service.
It could be said that the temporary stability of the imperial court could not be sustained without the support of the three of them.
Oh, my lord, my lord, come back quickly, the people of Xuansui need you.
CHAPTER 203 - TO BE A HIGH OFFICIAL
Duke Ming Palace, Qi He was playing with Chen Xiao.
Little fellow, tell this princess what you want to do when you grow up.
Of course I'm an official. I'm a very, very big official.
Chen Xiao replied without hesitation.
Wei He smiled coyly. Then you still have to study properly. Otherwise, you won't be able to do it without a genuine talent.
Being a superior official was indeed enviable. However, if he couldn't be a good official, he might as well not be one.
Chen Xiao pouted. Who said I don't have real talent?
My father has already taught me the techniques to chop firewood. After a few years, I can go to the army and kill the enemy on the battlefield. I will build a great career for the imperial government so that His Majesty will bestow upon me the title of a great general."
Chen Xiao's wish was indeed beautiful. It was so beautiful that even he felt that it could be realized, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong.
Killing an enemy on this battlefield is different from cutting firewood with an axe.
Wei He kindly reminded him.
Chen Xiao did not mind. What's different? Isn't it all hacking and chopping?
Chen Lin walked up to him and said, Son, when your mother was pregnant with you, she said that you are not allowed to study martial arts and must study literature. So you have to study properly and be a civil servant in the future.
Chen Xiao was very depressed. What's so good about being a civil servant? Weak and useless.
Qi He laughed, I think it's better to teach based on his talent. Whatever he's suitable for, I'll let him learn. Otherwise, forcing him to learn something he doesn't like would be very unfair to the child.
Because Chen Lin had been with her for a long time, he did not care about her high and mighty status. As usual, he treated her with the attitude that he usually did when he was in the silt, "The princess has never given birth to a child, so she doesn't understand her parents. My wife and I hope that he can live in peace.
If all the parents of the world are thinking the same way, then where did the soldiers guarding my territory come from?
Both parents had the heart to love their children, but to the common people, even more important than their own lives was their own homeland. When their country failed and their family failed, it would be useless for you to spare your life.
Princess really knows how to argue.
Chen Lin felt that he could not compare to her.
You flatter me.
Qi He held Chen Xiao's hand. Little guy, can I take you out to play?
There was no point in always staying in the mansion, it was also good to go out for a walk.
If you beg me pitifully, then I will reluctantly agree, but you have to buy me nine skewers of candied fruits.
Chen Xiao had learned how to negotiate.
Fine, fine, fine. If you want me to buy all the candied fruits on the street, I'll buy them.
Wei He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that a father really did have a son. This father and son duo's personalities were truly carved out of the same mold.
Chen Lin was worried and urged, Don't listen to him. If you eat too much, you'll lose your teeth.
Qi He squatted down and pinched Chen Xiao's cheek. Your father is so long-winded. Let's ignore him.
Chen Xiao nodded. I agree with what you said the most.
Soon after, the young and the old man happily left the manor.
Behind him, Chen Lin could not help but shout out, You must bring my son back safely!
How pitiful for his parents.
Wei He didn't go back on his words and bought nine buns of candied fruits for Chen Xiao. If he couldn't finish them all, he would give them to someone else to eat.
When he was with Chen Xiao, Qi He had completely lost his identity as a princess and was now just a subordinate of the Young Master
.
This time, Chen Xiao stuffed eight candied fruits into her hands out of good intentions.
He held a stick in his hand and slowly chewed on it, enjoying it.
As he passed by the yamen, he suddenly discovered many people running towards the yamen. After asking around, he found out that the Prefect was about to be promoted to a court official to inquire about the case. They were all there to listen in.
Since Qi He thought that he had nothing to do, he decided to take a walk.
As for Chen Xiao, as long as he had food, he would be happy to eat anything, so he happily followed her.
The man being interrogated today was a neighbor who accused him of stealing.
Bring someone to offend Zhao Qi!
Master Cheng slapped the table and spoke majestically.
Soon after, a man in prison uniform was brought in and brought to kneel on the ground with an ancient expression.
Zhao Qi, do you know your crime?
The man called Zhao Qi shook his head. Sir, I was wrong. I didn't steal anything.
The plaintiff, Wang Ran, quickly spoke up, Sir, you can't listen to him. The property in my house was stolen by him. Please let him know.
Calm down, I will give you an explanation.
Lord Cheng patiently consoled the plaintiff.
Chen Xiao knew what was going on. He asked Wei He, who was standing beside him, Is it illegal to steal a needle from someone else's house?
I'm not sure about that.
She scratched her head in embarrassment. But I think it would be immoral to steal anything, even a bowl of water.
The little guy asked her how well she knew the layman, but she still tried her best to answer his questions.
Is morality the same as law? Is the violation of morality punishable by law?
It was a very childish voice. When the surrounding people heard it, they all thought that this little boy was very adorable.
Furthermore, to be able to ask such a question, it showed that he was very smart.
Qi He thought for a moment and said, It should be different. Sometimes, you go against morality, but you don't get caught. If you scream out loud in a quiet place, it would be immoral, but no one can send you to the government.
In order to let him understand, she even gave him an example. What a good teacher.
Oh, oh, I understand.
Chen Xiao nodded, continuing to suck on the candied fruits.
Wei He laughed with an aunt behind him. Little girl, your little brother is really smart and cute. This little girl is so lucky. He will definitely have a bright future in the future.
Qi He patted Chen Xiao on the head. Hur hur …
He was very smart and cute right now, but back in the Scarlet Earths, he had more than one ghost eye. He had been tricked by him several times.
Chen Xiao turned his head and asked the aunt, Then can I become a high-ranking official in the future?
The aunt was stunned at first, but then nodded quickly, Yes! Of course! With such a clever brain, wouldn't it be a pity to not become an official?
Chen Xiao was very proud of what he had heard. He had wanted to become a general, but her dead mother hadn't allowed it. He believed himself to be a filial son, so he didn't dare disobey her mother.
Yes, with your words, aunt, I've decided that I, Chen Xiao, will become a promising man in the future. I will become a big official, covet a lot of silver, and buy a lot of candied fruits!
This kind of bold and unrestrained speech was heard by most people.
Lord Cheng was slightly displeased. Who dares to roar at the court?
Yes …
Is that me? " Chen Xiao weakly looked left and right, looking very innocent.
The aunt who had spoken just now nodded her head helplessly, admitting this tragic fact.
CHAPTER 204 - HIGH COURT
Unfortunately, Chen Xiao was brought to the court to kneel, and Qi He had no choice but to follow.
Milord, words are always spoken without restraint. Please don't lower yourself to the same level as him.
Master Cheng's expression was solemn. I naturally won't blame this child, but as his elder sister, if you don't properly teach him and let him think of some unorthodox things, I will punish this little brother of yours for his crimes.
Qi He originally wanted to say that he was not his own brother, but now he denied it. It was too heartless.
Chen Xiao, on the other hand, said, She's not my sister. She's the Qi He of the Duke's Mansion.
Lord Cheng was greatly shocked. Just now, he had said something childish, so this child probably wouldn't lie. Besides, what kind of crime would it be to impersonate the imperial family? Did they dare?
Thus, she immediately got up and walked over to Qi He, This official doesn't know that your highness the princess is riding on a phoenix chariot. If you have offended you in any way, I hope that you can forgive me.
The spectators were all shocked. Why was the princess here? Too much fun with the people.
Milord, there is no need to be so courteous.
Wei He still showed his badge, indicating that he was indeed a princess.
Sigh, I remember that time when I was being teased by these hooligans, it was because I didn't have anything to prove my identity, so when I went out in the future, she was careful, and this time it was really useful.
Your Highness, you are the monarch and this official is your subject. Please be seated.
A few polite words were unavoidable.
Qi He refused, This princess only came here to join in the fun. If it's convenient, then please give this princess a chair to sit and listen by the side.
At any rate, at this point, if he did not stay, it would hurt Master Cheng's heart.
Yes, yes, yes, His Highness is personally attending the hearing, this is this official's fortune.
Lord Cheng instructed the bailiff, Still not moving!
Then, order was restored in the hall. The only difference from before was that there were two more people, Qi He and Chen Xiao.
Wang Ran, tell me again what happened on the day of the murder.
Master Cheng was striking a log.
Yes, milord.
"I remember yesterday, when I went out to get some wine, and when I came back, I found out that a lot of valuable things had gone missing from my house, I immediately thought of that guy Zhao Qi. Although Zhao Qi is a neighbor of mine, because his hands and feet were dirty, he had the habit of stealing from other people, so the two families didn't have anything to do with each other.
You're slandering me, I didn't steal it at all!
Zhao Qi glowered and roared.
Lord Cheng once again took note of the shocking news. Silence, silence, silence!
There was absolute silence as they waited for the lord to ask about the case.
Qi He felt that this was very interesting. One of them spoke in a very orderly manner while the other seemed so angry that he wanted to kill someone. Was this Zhao Qi really a thief in this case?
There was a voice in her heart telling her that things might not be as simple as that.
Before Master Cheng could speak, Chen Xiao beat him to it, Sir, this Wang Ran has no proof at all!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. Who was this little fellow beside the princess? She actually had such courage and boldness.
However, to be by the princess' side meant that her background must be extraordinary.
No one would have thought that he was just an ordinary woodcutter's son.
That's right, even a child knows that words are baseless. It's just your deduction. If you don't have the evidence, how am I supposed to avenge you?
Master Cheng told Wang Ran.
Wang Ran was an impatient person, Sir, he must have done it. You are used to stealing, but because you stole some small things in the past, we did not report you. I did not expect you to be so bold as to rob my family of all our treasures.
Is there anyone else in your family?
Wang Ran answered respectfully, To reply Princess, my wife has already gone home, so there is no one else in her home.
Qi He wasn't surprised at all. How long has your wife been home?
According to today's calculations, seven days have already passed.
Yes.
Wei He nodded.
Master Cheng clasped his hands at Wei He, Princess, what did you discover?
Nothing yet.
Wei He was not an expert in this field.
Chen Xiao had already taken care of a string of candied fruits, spitting hawthorn seeds all over the place. It was very immoral.
My father said that if it wasn't something that he witnessed with his own eyes, then it couldn't be real.
Chen Xiaomeng said in a very serious manner.
Zhao Qi gave Chen Xiao a grateful look. It was rare for anyone to defend him, even though he was a young boy.
Wang Ran was unhappy, Who else can it be other than him? Could it be that the treasure left on its own?
Just as she finished speaking, a woman rushed into the court.
Master Qingtian, please forgive me. The silver was taken by this young lady.
My wife? Why is it you?
Wang Ran was shocked.
Right now, the situation was a little uncertain. Wang Ran wrongly accused Zhao Qi of stealing from her, but she never thought that it was her own wife who did it.
Why aren't you explaining?
The thing that Master Cheng did the most was to take pictures of others.
Honestly speaking, this way, he would be able to gather everyone's attention. The things invented by his predecessors were truly useful.
Yes, milord.
Wang Ran's wife enunciated each word clearly, When I returned to my family, I found out that my brother's business had failed and he was in huge debt, so how could I not help, so I hurried home to get some silver to help him, but because of the urgent situation, my husband was not at home at that time, so I decided to leave after collecting some silver. I wanted to wait for him to come back, but who would've thought that he would come back this time and find out that my husband sent Big Brother Zhao to the government, so I didn't dare to delay and come to the yamen to explain things.
So that's how it is.
Everyone sighed.
After all this time, it was just an accident.
Like I said, what you see is the truth, what you hear is the truth. What my father taught me is very true.
Chen Xiao did not forget to give face to his own father in front of others.
The woman scolded Wang Ran softly, Husband, you have truly wronged Big Brother Zhao this time.
Actually, there was something wrong with her. If she had left a clear note, things would not have turned out like this.
Wang Ran embarrassedly said to Zhao Qi, Brother Zhao, I'm really sorry. I apologize to you.
I don't dare. How can someone like me be worthy of your apology?
Sure enough, after turning the tables, the salty fish couldn't help but mock that person who was trapped in the prison.
Alright, alright. Since the truth of the case has been revealed, there's no need for further explanation. Release Zhao Qi without any offense. You two, husband and wife, can go back!
Lord Cheng isn't a bad person.
Thank you, Old Master Qingtian!
Qi He also stood up. Lord Cheng is very perceptive. He really is worthy of being a parent. This princess admires him.
Princess, you flatter me.
Actually, he didn't do anything. He merely swatted a few wooden sticks.
Chen Xiao mumbled, Hmm, it feels like being a civil servant is quite fun.
Milord, I, the princess, will take my leave. There is no need for you to send me off.
Qi He left with Chen Xiao, not taking a cloud with him, only leaving behind a dozen hawthorn seeds. He-
"
Lord Cheng made a respectful gesture and then said to Zhao Qi, You must not commit any more theft in the future. This time, I'll let you remember for a while.
Thank you for your teachings, Sir!
CHAPTER 205 - LOOKING FOR MISTRESS
As the duo was walking on the street, Chen Xiao suddenly asked, What kind of place is Cui Yu listening to the snow?
What? Cui Yu hearing snow?
Qi He was a little confused.
Look!
Isn't that what's written on the signboard? " Chen Xiao pointed upwards.
Qi He raised his head and saw that there were indeed these four words.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, as if a sentence had flashed through his mind.
We can be considered to have some fate between us. If you have any good 'business' in the future, remember to come to Cui Yu and Tingxue to find me.
Sun Sran? Is this where the thief, Sun Sran, lives? Since he was already here, he might as well go in and take a look.
Qi He boldly knocked on the door. It was indeed him who opened the door, and when he saw Qi He and the child beside him, he said in a roguish tone, What is it?
You came to me with a child? I don't recognize it.
Wei He snappily shoved the six bundles of candied fruits into his hands. This lady will give you a present, don't think of anything wrong.
Sun Sran didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. Can't you give me a present? I haven't eaten this thing in over forty years.
Qi He looked at him with disdain. This guy was forty years old? Be careful not to blow the skin off your head.
Chen Xiao pouted. If you don't like it, then give it to me.
Sun Sran pretended to be domineering. I'll take it. If I don't give it to you, I won't give it to you.
For such a big person to talk and act like a child, it was truly interesting.
Chen Xiao hurriedly said to Qi He in a spoiled manner, Godmother, godfather bullied me!
Who's your mother!
Who's your godfather?
The other two spoke at almost the same time, but in slightly different tones.
Of course, the scene wasn't considered awkward, because the little guy walked in with an innocent face and muttered, Dad is really rude. I didn't know that someone would come to our house and invite you in for a chat.
Wei He originally wanted to drag this stupid kid away, but since he already went in, he had no choice but to go in with him.
Don't even mention it. From the outside, Sun Sran's home seemed like a small family, but inside, it was huge.
Because the interior was too luxurious, it was even more luxurious than the imperial palace. The floor was covered in gold.
Wah!
Godfather, you really have money! " Chen Xiao couldn't help but exclaim.
Wei He looked at such a vulgar arrangement and could not help but despise him, Isn't it just stealing? You did not come from the right path.
Of course, to be able to steal from him, that was definitely it. If this guy really wanted to, then he could probably steal all the treasures in the world.
Sun Si Ran crossed his arms in front of his chest and said, Actually, this is only the tip of the iceberg. The amount of gold buried here is a total of 10 million gold taels.
Are you crazy?
You don't even need that much money. Why did you steal it?
There must be something wrong with this person.
Sun Ran did not mind. Can't I feel comfortable looking at it?
What's more, in the future, I will need to spend money to get married."
Then you'll probably be able to marry the Queen Mother.
He shook his head helplessly.
Chen Xiao held a fist-sized luminous pearl in his hand. Dad, can you give this to me?
Brat, you have good eyes. I stole this from the Southern Yan Imperial Palace. There's also a bigger one. It was stolen from the Dongluo Imperial Palace.
But godfather, you still haven't answered and can't give it to me.
Chen Xiao was very insistent on this question.
Because he really did like this bead. To him, it wasn't too big, just right.
Sun Sran stared at Qi He. You have to ask her.
Ask me what?
So what does this have to do with me? If he wanted to send her off, so be it. If he didn't want to send her off, so be it.
Ask him if you want to be his godmother.
Sun Sran smiled sinisterly.
This was originally a joke, but Chen Xiao actually took it for real. "Do you take me as your mother? In the future, I will be filial to you like my own mother.
It was really hard to imagine. These were the words spoken by a child, and the oath he made was also a promise.
Are you joking? How old am I and how old are you? I can be your godmother?
Being a foster sister was more like it.
I don't care, I just want to be your son. Even if you agree, you have to agree, even if you don't want to.
With that, Chen Xiao kneeled down and kowtowed three times. He held the Night Pearl happily in
