The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 310: Senior Brother is not pretending anymore?

Liu Sheng coughed lightly, "Hey, come on, he will definitely come to your wedding."

Seeing that he still refused to confess, Li Mulan crossed her arms over her chest and looked at him calmly, her eyes full of mockery.

Liu Sheng felt a little flustered when she looked at him like this, "Why...why are you looking at me like that?"

The corners of Xu's lips curled up slightly. She had already noticed something was wrong. She drank her tea leisurely and did not get involved in the fight between the two senior brothers and sisters.

Li Mulan didn't beat around the bush. "Third Senior Brother has already arrived in Kyoto. You were drinking with him yesterday, right?"

Liu Sheng's first reaction was that Liu Feng, that brat, had sold him out. "Bastard, tell him not to say anything. He couldn't hold it in for even a day. I'll break his legs when he comes back."

Li Mulan doesn't care about Liu Feng. Let the father and son settle their own accounts.

"So, Senior Brother, you deliberately helped Senior Brother Three hide this from me, right?"

Liu Sheng's face was a little embarrassed. "Hey, how can I put it? It's not like I'm hiding it from you. Your third brother just...just wants to give you a surprise. Yes, a surprise."

Li Mulan snorted coldly, "You are still lying to me. I had dinner with the Crown Prince of Tianlang last night. An eight-year-old child is so adorable."

Liu Sheng's eyes lit up and he stopped drinking tea. "Really? Did you see him?"

"Yeah, I have a lunch appointment today."

Liu Sheng looked at Li Mulan who didn't want to talk more, and chuckled twice, "Um... hehe, you also made an appointment for lunch? How about bringing Senior Brother along? You know what, I haven't seen this kid even once even when he was eight years old."

Li Mulan looked at Liu Sheng with a sly smile, "What? Senior Brother doesn't want to pretend anymore?"

Liu Sheng looked a little uncomfortable. "Oh, it's not me, the eldest brother, who wants to lie to you. It's the third brother who wants to give you a surprise and won't let me tell you. If you don't believe me, ask your eldest sister-in-law. She went with me yesterday."

Xu glared at him. This old man was so quick to sell her out at the critical moment.

Li Mulan didn't respond to his words, "My sister-in-law wouldn't lie to me, it must be you and Third Senior Brother who did this."

"Hey, girl, if you don't believe me, ask your sister-in-law if it was the third brother's own request. I asked him to come see you yesterday, but he said to wait a little longer and give you a surprise then. I told you, don't let the surprise turn into a shock." Seeing that his wife didn't react at all, Liu Sheng winked at her, "Is that so, madam? Say something."

Xu then glanced at him and said, "Okay, you are so old, Xiaojiu is just teasing you." Then she looked at Li Mulan with a loving face, "Tell me, how is the child?"

Li Mulan smiled and said, "You are a very well-behaved child. You must have sneaked out of the post station yesterday to look for me. You are so cute even at such a young age, but you look so serious. I'm sure you will like it, sister-in-law."

"Really?" Xu also showed a curious look, "Your third sister-in-law is a gentle woman, with extraordinary knowledge and gentle appearance but strong heart. She said yesterday that her son was a little too serious and not cute at all, and she wanted to have a daughter."

Li Mulan stroked her chin, "He is indeed a bit serious, a little old-fashioned. But he is also really likable, sister-in-law, do you know? He was still carrying the medicine bag I gave him a few years ago. Hehe, this child is inadvertently giving me clues. He is a very smart and clever child."

"Really? Then I want to go and meet him today. Your third brother has a special status, so we have only communicated through letters over the years. As for your third sister-in-law, I only met her once, but she is easy to get along with."

Liu Sheng was anxious, "Me, me, and me."

Li Mulan rolled her eyes, "Will Senior Brother lie to me again in the future?"

Liu Sheng said helplessly, "I already said I didn't mean to lie to you, it was all your third senior brother's fault."

"Anyway, Senior Brother, remember not to treat me like this in the future."

"Oh, I know, I know. You can only bully me. If you have the guts, why don't you go and tell Master and Second Brother? You are a bully who only cares about the strong and the weak."

Li Mulan shrugged, "Master will punish me, and so will Second Senior Brother," then she looked at Liu Sheng and immediately smiled again, "But First Senior Brother won't, hahahaha."

Xu was also amused watching from the side. This old man was obviously very sarcastic outside, but every time he faced Xiaojiu, whom he raised as a daughter, he suffered losses. Alas, it really proved the old saying that evil people will be punished by evil people.

Regent's Palace, study.

Chu Chenfeng didn't sleep all night. Looking at the documents on the table, his brows were so tight that they could kill mosquitoes.

"Master, take a rest. You haven't slept all night." Xing Yi also didn't sleep all night, but he was still more worried about Chu Chenfeng.

Chu Chenfeng rubbed his brows, "Did Situ Yue tell you anything?"

Xing Yi also had a serious expression on his face. "No, I think the Third Prince of Northern Qi is indeed unaware of this and is probably being used by the Crown Prince of Northern Qi."

"Oh, I really overestimate him."

"Has the Northern Qi delegation arrived?"

"Not yet."

"Who is coming?"

"It is the Second Prince of Northern Qi who is here."

"The Second Prince?" This was something Chu Chenfeng had not expected. "A prince who has been bedridden for years and a second prince who only knows romance, interesting."

"It is said that this Second Prince was given this task because the Third Prince was away. It must be a coincidence."

"Coincidence? I never believe in coincidences. Northern Qi has been making small moves recently, and none of them can be a coincidence."

"I will immediately arrange for someone to investigate."

"Is there any news about Ye Mingqi?"

"Line 2 and Line 3 found the guard who disappeared with General Ye, but he was seriously injured and unconscious. The military doctor was helpless, so we can only wait."

Chu Chenfeng looked unhappy, "We can't wait, we need to continue investigating. If we delay for one more day, the chance of his survival will decrease by one point."

"Yes, by the way, Master, the people who were investigating King Daocheng appeared at Longma Temple today."

Chu Chenfeng raised his eyes slightly, "Did the Queen Mother leave the palace today?"

"No."

"Does the man who becomes the king know what to do?"

"I went to see Master Liaochen."

Chu Chenfeng played with the ring in his hand, "Do you know what it said?"

"I didn't hear anything."

"Keep staring."

"Yes."

"Notify Xing Si that Jiangnan is preparing to close the net."

Xing was surprised, "So fast?"

"Quick?" A hint of coldness flashed in Chu Chenfeng's eyes. "Simon is eyeing him covetously. Beiqi has ulterior motives. If he still keeps Cheng Wang, it will be a joke. I don't have time to play with him."

"You can look over there..."

"Send a pigeon to tell them that no matter what, Jiangnan must be conquered before the king's wedding."

"But······"

"No buts."

Xingyi gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I will arrange it right away."
