The road is right under your feet

Chapter 271 What to do?

Bai Xing felt sad and soft, he smiled and nodded.

The child's smile became purer and purer, and suddenly, the smile on Bai Xing's mouth froze.

What is he talking about?

Is he someone who can adopt a child? Regardless of whether he can take good care of the child, it is not allowed from a practical point of view.

He came here for a trial, not a vacation.

He didn't even know if this world was real, let alone how he would take the child away after completing his mission.

Many thoughts popped up in Bai Xing's mind, and he finally came to the conclusion that he couldn't take the child away.

Bai Xing was completely frozen, not daring to look at the child's smile. Even the bell-like laughter beside his ears became a curse, disturbing him and making him uneasy.

The question "what to do" filled his mind.

Until he arrived in front of the palace, Bai Xing had not figured out how to face the child.

The two got out of the sedan chair. Yun Anle hesitated for a while, and finally made up his mind and reached out to grab Bai Xing's hand.

However, as soon as the fingertips touched, Shirahoshi dodged without a trace as if he had been electrocuted.

Yun Anle's expression darkened, and she couldn't help wondering, was he not obedient enough, not cute enough? Or was he asking for too much, and the master didn't like him anymore and didn't want him anymore?

Yun Anle followed Bai Xing in a daze and walked into the palace together. The magnificent palace was a sight he had never seen before.

He looked up at Bai Xing, a little dazed, and thought to himself, "Master, it seems like you are used to all this, and he is just a little beggar that no one wants. Is he really not worthy of being Master's child?"

Bai Xing seemed to have sensed something and looked down at him. He saw the lonely look on the child's face. Bai Xing's heart trembled and he avoided his gaze a little unnaturally.

Then he pulled the person closer to him.

Yun Anle felt the weight on his shoulders, his nose felt sore, and a tingling sensation surged in his heart. He gently raised his hand and pressed it on his chest.

Is this what it feels like to be cared for? So... so magical, so warm.

He had to keep this warmth no matter what.

His eyes became determined, and the old man told many stories in which the protagonists were all insignificant little characters at the beginning, but after unremitting efforts and experiencing life and death, they finally got everything they wanted.

The word the old man said most often was that everything depends on human efforts. If they can do it, he can do it too.

Sir, you will always be his sir, no one can take you away from him.

Emperor Wu sat high on the dragon throne and immediately noticed Yun Anle walking beside Bai Xing.

He had some guesses about Shirahoshi's identity, and since Shirahoshi's medical skills were amazing, he naturally paid special attention to people and things related to Shirahoshi.

He chatted with Bai Xing for a while, then asked, "Who is this?"

Bai Xing smiled slightly, "He is my relative." Then he said to the child, "An Le, call someone."

The child seemed to be still immersed in his own world, oblivious to everything around him.

Seeing this, Bai Xing first smiled at Emperor Wu, then bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty is so majestic, and Anle may be a little nervous because of your majesty."

After he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire hall became somewhat subtle.

Emperor Wu laughed, instantly eliminating all the subtlety, "It's okay, it's okay. They're just kids, haha."

Wu Qingshuang looked strange. She looked them up and down. "Your relative? You raised him as your son? Don't you have a wife? Doesn't she mind? You...don't have any children?"

Yun Anle’s face turned pale and his body couldn’t help but tremble.

Bai Xing thought to himself that something was wrong. He didn't bother to reply and immediately rubbed the top of Yun Anle's head. After a while, Yun Anle gradually calmed down under his comfort.

"Sir, will you not want me?"

Faced with Yun Anle's serious expression, Bai Xing felt his scalp tingling. He felt like he was being judged and subconsciously avoided his gaze.

Yun Anle's eyes dimmed and he lowered his head.

When Emperor Wu heard this, he asked suspiciously, "Wife? Doctor Yun already has a wife at home?"

White Star: "......"

Bai Xing wanted to slap his forehead, but before he could think of how to reply, Wu Qingshuang said, "Oh, about this matter, I heard about it from my subordinates a few days ago. It was said that one dark and windy night, Doctor Yun said in front of all the soldiers, I miss you, wife~"

White Star: "......"

Bai Xing was so embarrassed that he couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand. He felt so embarrassed that he was completely humiliated.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Wu also tried to cover up by putting his fist to his lips and coughed a few times, "Shuang'er, don't be rude."

Wu Qingshuang smiled sweetly and said, "Yes, Father."

White Star: "......"

It’s confirmed, this girl seems to dislike him.

Yun Anle felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. Wu Qingshuang's words could not be erased from his mind, like a knife cutting him to pieces.

It turns out...the gentleman already has a wife and children at home, so what does he count as?

Is he... still Mr.'s child?

Bai Xing said at this time: "Anle, come and tell His Majesty, what has happened in the past few days?"

Yun Anle lowered his head, and his expression was unclear. Bai Xing looked worried, thinking that the child was still afraid. After all, it was the first time for him to meet the emperor, so it was normal for him to be nervous.

He simply squatted down, put his big hands on the top of his head, and rubbed it gently, "Anle, don't be afraid, the master is here."

Yun Anle's eyelashes trembled and she hummed softly.

Shirahoshi repeated it again.

Yun Anle's eyes were lifeless as he mechanically recounted what had happened in the past few days, perhaps because he knew that the person above him was the supreme emperor.

On the way here, Bai Xing also specifically instructed to explain the whole story clearly.

So, Yun Anle told Bai Xing all the bad things that had happened because he was afraid of causing trouble for her.

Afterwards, he lifted up the clothes, revealing the hideous wounds on them. The old wounds had not healed and new ones had appeared. Some of the wounds had not been treated in time and had already become festered and festered.

Bai Xing closed his eyes and was filled with anger. It turned out that the child was bullied by Zhao Benshan to such an extent, being beaten and scolded at every turn and even subjected to lynching.

He knew the child was injured, but he never thought it was so serious.

The others who were escorted here with him also knew the stakes involved and stopped keeping silent, testifying one after another, even revealing how they and their companions had been bullied by Zhao Benshan.

Emperor Wu was furious, "Zhao Benshan, do you admit your guilt?"

From the moment Zhao Benshan saw the conversation between Bai Xing and Wu Huang, which seemed like a casual chat between friends, he knew that he had underestimated this doctor.

I knew he was a popular figure around the emperor, but I didn't expect him to be so popular.

He was so frightened that he lost his spirit. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is a misunderstanding. This is all a misunderstanding. Please listen to my explanation."

Wu Qingshuang snorted coldly, "It's the same excuse again, father. This thief looks down on my daughter. I have interrogated him before, but he refused to speak. It seems like I am bullying him by taking advantage of my power."

She sneered, "Now that we have evidence, let's see how he can deny it."

Emperor Wu raised his eyebrows and said, "Zhao Benshan, you are so brave. You dare to ask the princess questions like this. Very good, very good!"

As he spoke, Emperor Wu coughed violently a few times, "Come here, arrest this man, throw him into prison, and behead him tomorrow at noon!"

Zhao Benshan panicked when he heard this, and immediately resisted violently, "No, no, Your Majesty, it's not like that, I say, I say. This is all..."

Before he could finish his words, his throat seemed to be stuck by something, and he bled from all seven orifices and died.

This scene was too weird. Bai Xing immediately covered the child's eyes with a dark look in his eyes.

I wanted to use this to find out the person behind this, but it seems that this is far from over.

Everyone was horrified, and Wang Liang and others were even more at a loss, fearing that they would be the next.

Emperor Wu's eyes were dark, and he looked majestic without being angry. "Wang Liang, you will replace Zhao Benshan from now on."

Wang Liang was stunned. "Me?"

Liu Zhi quickly pulled him, and Wang Liang immediately reacted and kowtowed: "I obey your command and thank you for your grace."

Wang Liang's face did not show the joy of taking office, but rather a bit of fear. He was afraid that after taking over from Zhao Benshan, he would end up like this.

He lay on the ground, as if he had thought of something. He turned his face to the side and saw Bai Xing protecting Yun Anle like a calf. He couldn't help but feel envious.

He only whispered to Yun Anle: "From now on, you can move in with me, and you don't have to go to the martial arts training ground."

Yes, there is also Doctor Yun. He is so good to Yun Anle, Doctor Yun will definitely not sit idly by.

As if grasping at a life-saving straw, he walked up to Bai Xing when he was leaving the court, pleading in his eyes, "Doctor Yun, can I have a word with you?"

Bai Xing was a little surprised. He gently touched Yun Anle's hair and handed him to Wu Qingshuang, "Thank you, Princess."

After saying that, Bai Xing followed Wang Liang away.

"Oh!" Wu Qingshuang widened his eyes and looked at Bai Xing's departing back, feeling extremely angry.

Then, she looked down at Yun Anle and chuckled, but in fact she cursed Bai Xing eight hundred times in her heart.

She took a deep breath, "Your name... is Yun Anle?"

Yun Anle just stared at her without saying anything, and the air seemed to be quiet.

Wu Qingshuang felt his scalp tingling from being stared at, so he had no choice but to lead him to sit on the stone steps nearby.

Yun Anle was a little surprised, "Aren't you a princess? Why are you sitting on the ground?"

Wu Qingshuang was stunned by the question, then she smiled, "Yes, I am a princess, but sister, I am more than just a princess. I am also a warrior who protects the Wu Kingdom."

"On the battlefield, it is common to sit on the ground, using the sky as a blanket and the ground as a bed."
