Chapter 121 There is still a long way to go
Ye Tianyu said naturally, "This is my junior uncle."
Li Mulan was stunned and looked at Li Cong embarrassedly.
Li Cong didn't know much about Situ Tianming. After all, he was a man of the world. It was understandable that Li Cong, a scholar, didn't know him.
But how could Ye Tianyu not know about his master, the literary master Liu Sheng, the dean of Longming Academy? Even this literary master was only seven or eight years older than Liu Sheng, but he made this proud writer with both talent and family background willing to become his disciple. This was a story that was talked about with great relish back then.
His master is a person that all countries are vying to please. Li Cong couldn't even imagine how powerful he is.
Facing her grandfather's complicated eyes, Li Mulan felt a little guilty, "Grandfather~"
Li Cong suddenly laughed, "Why? Grandfather can't know?"
"No, it's just that my master has a weird temper. I never mention his identity outside, lest he say I'm relying on him to bully others."
"Hahaha, Junior Uncle-Master, every time you got into trouble that you couldn't solve, you didn't ask Grandmaster to ward off disaster?" Huo Yuanruo never cared about the occasion when it came to holding his Junior Uncle-Master back.
Li Mulan glared at him and said, "Go away."
"Okay, Grandfather will pretend that he doesn't know about this. But," he looked at Ye Tianyu, "if anyone wants to know, they can find out easily by just checking."
Ye Tianyu said dissatisfiedly, "Uncle Junior, do you think it's shameful to be the disciple of the Grandmaster? Or is it shameful to be the junior sister of my master?"
Li Mulan smiled awkwardly, "How could it be..."
"If I hadn't stopped him today, Master would have come here on his own. He hasn't seen Junior Uncle for two years."
"Oh, okay, okay, I get it. I'll go see my brother myself after I've settled my family affairs. Please tell me clearly when you go back. I'll go by myself, and you guys don't come to my house."
"Why?"
Li Mulan put her hands on her hips and glared at him, "Why? What why? Just listen to what I say. Why are you asking so many questions?"
Ye Tianyu choked, and under the pressure from Li Mulan, he had no choice but to agree.
"By the way, have my second and sixth brothers arrived?"
"Are Second Uncle and Sixth Uncle coming? I haven't heard Master mention that."
Li Mulan nodded, "Oh, that means they haven't arrived yet. Okay, Second Senior Brother and Sixth Senior Brother think that few people know them. When the time comes, let's see whether they will stay at the Taifu Mansion or go to the eldest senior brother's place."
What they didn't know was that the second oldest Xuanming and the sixth oldest Lin Yunfan, as they were calling them, had already been living in a luxurious house in Kyoto for two days, but neither of them had any intention of going to see their eldest senior brother...
Ye Tianyu looked a little excited, "Then I will go back and tell Master, he will definitely be very happy when he knows it."
"Happy?" Haha, that's not necessarily true.
No one else in the Li family knew Ye Tianyu, so naturally they wouldn't make any guesses. Only Li Liang, who was leaning on the carriage window and looking out, seemed to see everything clearly with his shrewd eyes, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips. Their Li family was going to rise to the sky, hahahaha, not bad, very good.
Ye Tianyu followed Li Mulan and her group for a while, and when they were almost at the gate of Kyoto City, he was sent away by Li Mulan.
"Uncle Junior, although Jingdu knows that the Li family is coming back, you are a month earlier than originally planned. Now no one knows about it, so it doesn't hurt for me to follow and help."
Li Mulan sneered, "No one knows? Don't worry, everyone who should know knows." Otherwise, how did all these assassinations come about.
“That’s also…”
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Go back and tell my brother what I said."
"Master will definitely not agree. I guess he will come to your house if you arrive tonight."
Li Mulan sighed, thinking about it, "Then tell my senior brother that I will go to see them in the evening."
Ye Tianyu was satisfied and said, "Okay, I'll go back and tell Master right away." Hehehe, Master will definitely be very happy to hear this news. Once he's happy, maybe the policy paper issue from last time will be over, and I won't have to continue copying as punishment...
When the Li family returned to Kyoto this time, there was not even a single person to welcome them. On the one hand, few people actually knew the news, especially those who were interested in the matter did not want the Li family to return. On the other hand, it was naturally due to the tyranny of the Prime Minister's Mansion. In short, it seemed particularly deserted.
Li Yi felt a little uncomfortable. When he was in Kyoto, there were many people who were on good terms with him, but now...
Li Xun patted his brother's shoulder and said, "Brother, it's okay. We are back."
Li Yi's throat was choked, "Yes, we are back."
Li Yun was not good at speaking, but at this time he stood beside his elder brother and comforted him silently.
The younger generation all had happy looks on their faces, especially those who were young, like Li Lian, who had never seen the prosperity of Kyoto and found everything they saw new and novel.
After entering the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city knew the news. Someone from above had already come to inform them, otherwise, such a large group of people would definitely alarm the government office.
Huo Yuanruo rode up on his horse and said, "Hey, it's you, Brother Zhang."
The gatekeeper known as Brother Zhang was stunned and looked at Huo Yuanruo carefully. "Oh, it's you, Huo kid, why are you..." He looked at the large group of people behind Huo Yuanruo, restrained his smile, but his eyes were still gentle, "Why did you come back with the Li family? Are you related?"
"Yes, they are relatives. I escorted them all the way back."
"Oh, I see. Don't worry, the General's Mansion has come to say hello. You can just go in directly."
Li Xun, who was about to go forward to greet him, was stunned when he heard this. The General's Mansion? When did Dad have anything to do with the General's Mansion? But he didn't think much about it and went back after seeing that there was no problem.
The group entered the city in a mighty procession, which naturally caused a discussion among the people. The people had no idea where these people came from, so they pointed and talked about them.
After the Li family's convoy passed by, two slender figures wearing bamboo hats walked out from a hidden corner.
"Miss, why don't we go up and say hello? You've been waiting for so many years."
The woman in white snorted, "Why should I rush over? She broke off the engagement with me a long time ago."
The maid rolled her eyes. No one could see her wearing a bamboo hat anyway. "Then why did you come here? What are you doing here?"
The woman in white twisted the girl's arm and said, "You are making up stories about me too. You are really bold, aren't you?"
The maid cried softly, "Oh, Miss, please be gentle, it hurts."
"It hurts, so I can stop you from talking nonsense."
The maid curled her lips, "What should we do now? Go back to the mansion?"
The woman in white said angrily, "Go back, why not go back?" Anyway, you have already returned to Kyoto, and there is still a long time to live, huh.
