After sending off Zhao Xiang and the others, Cai 'er was brought back to her room by Ah Xiao to rest.
Only Mu Zheng and Qiuyue Niang were left in the hall.
Under the unusual atmosphere, the candle in the candlestick was about to burn out, but the flames were still flying around.
"Master, who does Prime Minister Zhao want us to find?”Qiuyue Niang couldn't help but ask.
Mu Zheng paced back and forth and stopped." Li Han!”
"Li Han?" Qiuyue Niang had never heard of this name before and didn't know who it was. However, other than the royal family's surname Li, there was no one else in the Southern Kingdom who had the same surname as the royal family. Could it be…
"Eleven years ago, the murder of the emperor's younger brother, Li Zhen, has yet to be solved. It has been hanging in the Final Case Mansion without any clues. When the emperor summoned the emperor from Chengyang District to Fu 'an City, other than his wife, Princess Murong, there was another child called Li Han. However, I heard that the child fell into the Broken Wood Cliff and died!”Mu Zheng sighed.
However, Qiuyue Niang didn't understand." Since he's dead, why is Prime Minister Zhao still looking for that child? Also, what right does he have to let us find him? From the very beginning, I didn't have a good impression of him, especially that son of his. I can tell at a glance that he's a playboy, and he actually dared to touch my Cai 'er. Don't think that I don't know why he brought his son here.”Qiuyue Niang was filled with anger at the thought of that Zhao Suyang. Mu Zheng had asked Cai 'er to bow to Prime Minister Zhao, but that Zhao Suyang had immediately rushed out to help Cai' er up when he saw her, and had even taken advantage of her. If it wasn't for the fact that they were officials of the Imperial Court, Qiuyue Niang really wanted to kick them out of the manor.
Mu Zheng knew what she meant and felt a headache coming on. They had never had anything to do with the people of the imperial court. Ever since they met at the Laifu Inn and the last time they met was to investigate the assassination of the Emperor's younger brother, they had not seen each other again. Now, when they met again, they actually brazenly came to their villa. This time, they even brought their precious son along!
"Let's not talk about Prime Minister Zhao first. The reason why Prime Minister Zhao is looking for that child is because that child might not be dead yet!”
"Not dead? Everyone knew that those who fell into Duanmu Ya would not even have their bones left, let alone a child!”Qiuyue Niang couldn't believe it.
"I know that too, but at that time, there were only the remains of the carriage at the bottom of the cliff. There was no child's corpse.”
"Then it's possible that he's still alive?" Qiuyue Niang said.
"I'm not sure. In short, he disappeared from this world.”
"Then I'll die!"
"The emperor is also looking for it!" Mu Zhen said," This is a little suspicious. Li Han was publicly acknowledged to be dead a few years ago, and the Emperor had also stopped searching for his whereabouts. But why is he still looking for him, and why is he doing it in secret?”
"That means he's still alive!"
"I'm not sure! If he was alive, it was impossible for him to disappear without a trace!”
Qiuyue Niang was a little mad at his judgment. She said that he was dead, but Mu Zheng couldn't explain. She said that he was still alive, but Mu Zheng said that he had disappeared. He was not deliberately going against her.
"Then she was kidnapped by an expert!”Qiu Yue's words made Mu Zheng's eyes flash with joy." That's very possible!”
Hearing her husband's reply, Qiuyue Niang was completely stunned…
"Men!" Mu Zheng called out. Immediately, the servant waiting outside the door ran in.
"Call Yu Feng over!"
"Yes, sir! Master!" With that, he left.
On the way back to their room, Cai 'er pulled Ah Xiao and asked,"Sister Ah Xiao, do you think I've gained weight?"”
Regarding Cai 'er's inexplicable question, Ah Xiao was a bit confused, not understanding why she asked this question.
"Have you gained weight?" Cai 'er asked, and Ah Xiao pretended to look up and down, pondering for a moment,"It seems like I've gained a little weight!"”He gestured with his hands.
"Oh no, I've gained weight again?" Cai 'er's despair was exaggerated, and Ah Xiao's mouth opened and closed,"Actually, Miss's figure is just right, and she's not fat."”
"No matter what, I'm still fat!”
"Actually, I'm really not fat."
"I don't care. I want to lose weight! I'm not eating dinner. Don't send it to me.”
"Miss!"
Qiuyue Niang had already returned to her room, and the night was very quiet.
Yu Feng walked into the hall, bringing with him a gust of cold wind that blew gently. He looked up and saw Mu Zheng with his hands behind his back, seemingly deep in thought.
"Master!" Yu Feng walked over and called out behind Mu Zheng.
Hearing Yu Feng's voice, Mu Zheng slowly turned around and looked at him, his eyes filled with the expression of a loving father. Perhaps this was something that Cai 'er had never enjoyed before. All this while, Cai' er had always suffered from his strictness.
"Coming!" Mu Zheng said lightly. Yu Feng didn't reply to these simple words, he just stood there quietly and waited.
"Has the letter been delivered?" Mu Zheng asked.
"I have personally delivered it to him.”Yu Feng answered honestly. It seemed that he could only put down his cold face in front of Mu Zheng.
"Did he say anything?" Mu Zheng said.
Yu Feng shook his head." Nothing!”
Mu Zheng didn't say anything. After a long time, he asked again," How are you doing in the Blood Underworld Society?”
"Everything is fine!"
"Remember the rules of the Blood Underworld Society!" Mu Zheng hoped that Yu Feng would abide by this point.
"Understood! Yu Feng will abide by it!"
" The Blood Underworld Society used to be a murderous organization. Everyone there has blood on their hands. Although they have turned over a new leaf, they still can't change their bloodthirsty nature. You are trained by me. You are different from those people, so I hope that you can inherit the Blood Underworld Society and lead it. However, you are a newcomer. If you inherit it, they will definitely rebel. What you need to do is to fight for opportunities in the society so that they will acknowledge you and listen to you.”
"But, Martial Uncle and the others?" Yu Feng had some concerns. The martial uncle here referred to Xiao Murong and Yi Shui.
"Them! "I'm not worried about Yi Shui. This kid's mind is surrounded by Ah Xiao every day. Xiao Murong has a strong temper and has always been loyal to the Blood Underworld Sect. If your strength is above his, I think he won't say anything. The key lies in yourself. How can you convince the masses?”
"Thank you for your trust in me, Master, but Martial Uncle and the others have more than ten years of experience. Compared to them, Yu Feng is far inferior.”
"That depends on yourself!"
"Yes, sir!"
"However, before that, I want to bring you to a place!”Mu Zheng said.
Yu Feng didn't ask where they were going. If he said he wasn't curious, then it would be a lie.
The next day, when the warm sun rose from the east, the gentle light of light shone through the window, making the room very bright. Cai 'er was still sleeping in bed, and wouldn't get up even if the sun was high up in the sky.
Ah Xiao knocked on the door and walked in. Seeing Cai 'er still sleeping on the bed, he couldn't help but shake his head,”Ah Xiao called out. "Don't be noisy. Let me sleep a little longer!" Cai 'er's voice was as lazy as a cat's, and her appearance was quite cute when she was curled up in the quilt.
"Miss hasn't eaten anything since last night. You should get up and eat something!”Ah Xiao said, and immediately, Cai 'er seemed to have heard some kind of spell, and suddenly sat up from her bed, looking at the bright light outside the window, asking,"Sister Ah Xiao, what time is it now?"”
"It's already 10 o'clock!" Ah Xiao replied.
"Where's Yu Feng?"
"He and Master are in the study."
"Humph! The two of them only knew how to discuss important matters in the study every day.”Cai 'er was indignant.
"Wash up. Breakfast is ready!”Ah Xiao said.
"I'm not hungry yet, so I don't want to eat!" Cai 'er once again lay back in bed, throwing a childish tantrum.
"Miss!"
"I'm on a diet?"
"You can't starve yourself, right?”
“……”
"Miss is not fat at all! I'm telling the truth."
“……”
