The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 165 You get along really well with the Regent

When leaving the palace, Li Xi had borrowed too many books to handle them all by himself, so Chu Chenfeng specially arranged for a young eunuch to accompany him all the way until he was sent to the carriage at the palace gate.

Li Xun returned to the carriage and asked, "Why did you take so many books?"

Li Xi's face was full of excitement. "Second Uncle, take a look. Several of these books are the ones that Grandfather mentioned before. Take a look and see if they are correct. Did I take the wrong ones?"

Seeing him presenting treasures, Li Xun still took a look patiently. He didn't know until he looked at it. After seeing it, Li Xun couldn't sit still anymore. These books are all unique copies. How did this silly boy take them all out?

"This...is this a book from the library? Who told you to take it out? The books in the palace library are not available for loan to outsiders."

What should I do now? Send it back? What is the job of the manager of this library? How could this bastard take out the book so easily?

Li Xi looked puzzled. "Can't I borrow it? It was the Regent who said I could borrow it and that I just had to register it and return it in time."

"Regent? Are you sure?" Li Xun couldn't believe it. Could the Regent be so kind?

"Yes," Li Xi seemed to be in a very good mood, "I used to think the Regent was quite scary, but today, I think he is quite nice. He has a good temper and is very patient. I asked him a lot of questions today, and he is really amazing. He knows everything. Second uncle, you said that a person like the Regent has such a high status, but I didn't expect that he has such a wide range of knowledge. He is really amazing. He is good at both literature and martial arts. He is worthy of being the first war god of our Great Chu State."

Li Xun felt uncomfortable after hearing this, and even a little jealous. However, it was fine to say that he was powerful, but what about good temper and good personality? Was he really talking about Chu Chenfeng? Back then, he was a tyrant in Kyoto and a devil. How could he be so good in the eyes of this stupid boy?

"Do you have any misunderstanding about the Regent?"

Li Xi didn't understand what Li Xun meant. "What misunderstanding? There is no misunderstanding. I have thought it through. I will read more books tonight and write down what I don't understand. I will go to the library tomorrow to ask the regent for advice."

Li Xun snorted coldly, "The Regent is so busy with his affairs, how can he have the time to answer your questions all day long?"

"Yes, I have an appointment with the prince. He will go to the library tomorrow, and I will go there too, hehehe."

Li Xun was not only upset, but also annoyed. "It's only been two hours, and you and the regent king are getting along really well."

"Yes, the Regent is a good person, and he doesn't think I'm stupid. There are some questions that I still can't answer after hearing them twice, but he still patiently explains them to me for the third time." Then he looked at Li Xun with some grievance, "Unlike my second uncle, who refused to explain it a second time after I explained it once."

Li Xun gritted his teeth. Good, it was really good. He had taught this brat for so many years, but it was not as good as the short two or three hours he spent with Chu Chenfeng? Was he so easily bribed by Chu Chenfeng?

"Huh, do you think I'm impatient? It's such a simple question, but you still don't understand it after I've told you once. Why don't you look for your own problem?"

"You can't blame me for everything. Look today, I learned a lot of things after the prince explained them once. So sometimes, methods and approaches are important. Second uncle, you must be using the wrong method."

Li Xun felt his fists harden and his chest was choking with anxiety. "So, this is still my problem? Well, that's fine. If you have any questions in the future, you don't have to ask me for advice. Just go to the Regent."

Li Xi had a helpless look on his face as he packed up the books one by one. "You think I don't want to? You just said that the Regent is very busy with his official duties. What if I keep looking for him and delay his work? Well, I can only consult him occasionally when he is not busy. Most of the time, I can only look for my second uncle."

"Wow, judging from your tone, you seem quite aggrieved?"

"Hey, don't you feel wronged? It's been so many years, I'm used to my second uncle's strictness."

Li Xun couldn't help it anymore and slapped him on the back of the head. Then he slapped him a few more times as if he was not satisfied. "You are really good, you were bribed in just two hours? I taught you hard for so many years, and you still complain that my methods are wrong, that I have no patience, that I am too strict..."

Li Xun slapped him for every word he said, and slapped him again for every word he said. Li Xi could only cover his head with his hands, looking so pitiful... He didn't dare to talk back, let alone fight back, wuwuwuwuwu... See, what he said was absolutely right. The regent is still the best. He has a good temper, is patient, and is not violent.

At this moment, Chu Chenfeng was in a good mood, leaning against the soft cushion of the carriage, with the corners of his lips slightly raised and his hands tapping unconsciously.

Today's results were good, and Li Xi was indeed a likable kid. I guess he would definitely praise himself in front of that girl when he goes back, and maybe he would also tell his parents and grandfather. That way, the Li family should have a good impression of him.

Keep up the good work and he needs to continue to perform well tomorrow.

After returning to Li Mansion, Li Xun took Li Xi directly to Li Cong's yard, and the books he had borrowed.

Li Cong walked a few laps in the yard today. Now he can walk a few laps without anyone's help. Although his movements are a little slow, he is already very satisfied.

He looked at the books on the table, his expression a little stunned, "Did you bring all these back from the library in the palace?"

Li Xi looked at Li Xun aggrievedly, but the other party didn't even look at him.

Li Xi felt even more aggrieved. He was the one who was beaten, so why was his second uncle angry?

"Grandfather, I borrowed these books today. Do I have to return them after reading them?"

"The Regent agreed to let you borrow it?"

"Yes."

"Tell grandpa exactly what happened today."

Although Li Xi was confused, he was very obedient and told Li Cong everything that had happened today, from entering the palace to following the regent to the library.

Now, even Li Cong couldn't sit still. "He took the initiative to invite you? And he took the initiative to help you solve your doubts?"

Li Xi nodded. "Yes, the Regent... He is actually a very good person and a very kind person."

"You guys also made an appointment to go to the library tomorrow?"

"Yes~"

Li Cong glanced at Li Xun, then said to Li Xi, "Okay, Grandfather knows, you go back first, I have something to discuss with your second uncle."

Li Xi looked at the books on the table anxiously, fearing that his grandfather would not give him the books. "Then Grandfather, these books..."

Li Cong was speechless and waved his hand, "Take them all back. Remember to keep them well and make sure they are not damaged in any way."

"Yes, Grandfather, your grandson knows."

After the people left, Li Cong asked his second son, "What do you think?"
