Chapter 63 Beauty, it's you
Li Mulan looked at Zhang and said, "Mom, please go back to your room and rest first."
Zhang held Li Mulan's hand tightly, obviously very scared.
Li Mulan looked at Li Xi who was equally scared. Li Xi saw this and immediately went over to support his mother, "Mom, let me take you back to the house. Don't worry, everything is fine now." Although he was also scared.
"I'm going to see Grandpa."
Li Mulan walked straight into Li Cong's room. Li Cong looked unhappy, but he didn't seem to be afraid.
"Lan'er!"
"Grandfather, how are you? Are you scared?"
Li Cong waved his hand and said, "Although grandpa is old, he is not so naive."
Li Mulan seemed to be hesitant to speak, and Li Cong smiled and said, "Nothing, just ask whatever you want to ask."
"Grandfather, do you know who wants to kill the Li family?"
Li Cong's eyes showed coldness, "Some guesses."
"Master!" The men in black in the yard knelt down one after another, and the noise even alarmed the people in the house.
Li Cong was still half lying calmly, as if he had expected it. "Lan'er, please go out first. Grandfather has something to discuss with someone."
As soon as Li Mulan left the house, she was confronted with Chu Chenfeng's stunning face. He did not change his appearance today, but was dressed in a black python robe, which made him look noble and powerful. His aura was so intimidating that people took a few steps back.
But this does not include Li Mulan, "Oh, beauty, it's you."
As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked, only Huo Yuanruo was watching the show with amusement as if he was already used to it.
The second person in the back pursed his lips. This Miss Li is really bold and dares to say anything.
Chu Chenfeng looked normal, just glanced at Li Mulan, walked past her and went into Li Cong's room. Xing Er closed the door and stood guard at the door. The meaning was obvious, he didn't want anyone to hear the conversation inside.
Li Mulan curled her lips. So aloof? Well, usually handsome men are aloof.
At this time, two people stood in front of Qingyu and Huo Yuanruo, "Please move aside."
Huo Yuanruo looked like someone who was not easy to mess with. "What do you mean? I just want to stay here. What can you do to me?"
"Please wait outside the yard."
"What? Are you targeting me?" He then reacted and went outside the yard. At this distance, even with his strong internal strength, he couldn't hear the conversation inside. And here, only he and Qingyu had this ability, so they must be targeting them.
"Okay, Yuan Ruo, my grandfather has something important to discuss with someone, you and your sister should go out first."
Qingyu was a little worried, "What about you?"
"These people...don't worry, they'll be fine."
Qingyu nodded and walked out of the yard. Only Huo Yuanruo still looked reluctant, "What? You're even trying to chase me away." But since Li Mulan had spoken, he just complained a few words.
Li Xun stepped forward and took Li Mulan's arm, "Lan'er, do you know the Regent?"
Li Mulan shook her head. "I met him once on the way to Mobei. There was a small accident at that time, but I didn't know he was the regent."
Li Yi also looked worried, "I wonder what Dad and the prince want to talk about?"
Li Yun was equally worried.
Li Mulan smiled slyly, "I never thought that the regent who is said to be so magical, the cold-faced Yama, would be so handsome."
Li Xun and the others were all startled and pulled the person a few steps away, "Don't talk nonsense, girl."
When they heard her call the Regent "Beauty" just now, several people from the Li family were so scared that their legs went limp. Why doesn't this girl learn her lesson?
Li Mulan stuck out her tongue. For some reason, when the Regent passed by her just now, she always felt that the figure was somewhat familiar...
She looked at the second row standing straight and said with a smile, "Hey, brother, is the arm of that guy from last time completely healed?"
Xing Er bowed to Li Mulan and said, "Thanks to you, young lady, everything is fine now."
"Haha, it's just a piece of cake. Besides, you paid for it."
At this moment, Huo Yuanruo, who was outside the courtyard, was staring at Xing Er with a puzzled look on his face. "Sister Qingyu, do you think that person looks familiar?"
Qingyu raised her eyelids slightly, "We met on the way to Mobei."
"I'm not talking about that time, it's just... I feel like I've seen it somewhere else."
At this moment, Li Cong and Chu Chenfeng were facing each other in the room, one half lying on the bed and the other sitting upright on a chair beside the bed.
"Master Li, I haven't seen you for many years. You look much older."
"Thanks to the prince, I am still alive today."
Hearing the resentment in his tone, Chu Chenfeng laughed, "Your leg? Is it broken?"
"Hmph, I'm sorry to disappoint you, Your Highness. My granddaughter is an excellent doctor. I'll be able to walk briskly again soon."
"Oh? That's amazing."
"Of course."
Looking at the stubborn old man who still had the same temper as before, Chu Chenfeng looked a little disappointed. It would be great if nothing had changed. It would be great if his brother was still here...
Seeing him silent, Li Cong felt a little uncomfortable, "Why would a proud and noble prince come to this place?"
"come and see."
"What are you looking at?"
"Look at your proud bones. How many of them are broken?"
"Hahahaha," Li Cong laughed, "What now?"
Chu Chenfeng shook his head in disappointment, "It seems that the hard labor in Mobei is not that great."
When the people outside heard Li Cong's hearty laughter, they all looked at each other in confusion.
Li Mulan's eyes were full of curiosity. "I wonder what Grandfather is talking about with the Regent? They look so happy."
Li Yi and his brothers were also bewildered. How could their father be so familiar with the regent?
Chu Chenfeng looked at the old man's smiling face and felt a little uncomfortable. "You should know that the Li family's pardon decree was hijacked, and all the people who came to deliver the decree were killed."
Li Cong collected his thoughts and lowered his eyelids slightly, "I heard about it."
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Chu Chenfeng narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Li Cong was unmoved, "I don't understand what your Majesty is talking about."
"Heh," Chu Chenfeng stood up, walked to the dilapidated window and opened it, "Do you want your Li family to be extinct?"
Li Cong raised his head suddenly and glared at Chu Chenfeng, "Are you threatening me?"
"Huh, Li Cong, Li Cong, have you been in this place for too long? Have you lost your mind?"
Li Cong was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "Then there is no need for Your Majesty to worry about it."
"Do you think that you, or your newly recognized granddaughter, can have no worries? Li Cong, you are really old."
Li Cong's eyes instantly turned red. "Otherwise, who can I rely on? Your Majesty? Where were you thirteen years ago?"
Chu Chenfeng was silent. Yes, thirteen years ago, Li Cong had sent a message to the military camp, but...
"Thirteen years ago, it was my fault."
"Hehe, how could I, a guilty minister, deserve such a sentence from His Majesty?" Li Cong's face was bitter.
"That was all I did back then. I won't talk about the past anymore. Now I'm asking you, are you willing to trust me again?"
Li Cong's lips trembled, but he actually believed it in his heart. From the first time he knew that he had vindicated the former crown prince, from the time he knew that he had taken good care of the former crown prince's orphan and gave him the throne, from this time, he personally went to Mobei. However, he still resented it, resenting the cannibalistic imperial power. All his former beliefs collapsed at that time. Sometimes, he even didn't know whether his persistence was right or wrong.
