Chapter 352 I have an appointment with the leader of the line 1
"What about Xiaojie? The wedding day is bound to be extremely dangerous. You're leaving him alone in the palace?"
Chu Chenfeng felt relieved when he saw her reaction. It seemed that she was not angry. "Don't worry, I have arranged it. Besides, there is a secret passage in the palace. He knows it. If it is really dangerous, just go into the secret passage and wait for me to get there."
Li Mulan nodded, but she was still a little worried.
"My grandfather knew this, too?"
Chu Chenfeng nodded, "Don't worry, I have also made arrangements for the Taifu Mansion, and I will definitely not let your family get hurt."
"Hmm...where's the medicine?"
Chu Chenfeng knew that she was concerned about him, and smiled, "Don't worry, I asked Doctor Xuan for help, and the medicine has been changed, so there will be no problem."
"That's good. My subordinates are all good. If you need them, they will be given to you for the time being."
The smile between Chu Chenfeng's eyebrows became even wider, "We are indeed short of manpower. Lan'er is helping us in our time of need."
Li Mulan snorted angrily, "Don't give me that. You naturally don't take King Cheng seriously. You are on guard against Simon and Northern Qi. Do you think the Third Prince of Northern Qi can be useful?"
"Let's take a look."
Seeing his calm appearance, "It seems you have other plans."
"Not really, but I just didn't have much hope for him anyway."
"Then you let him go back to Northern Qi?"
"It's useless to me to take his life, so I might as well let him go."
Li Mulan gave a wicked smile, "Dogs bite each other and end up with a mouth full of fur?"
"Haha, Lan'er still understands me."
"Humph."
Soon, Qingyu brought the food up one by one. Just as Qingyu was about to serve soup to Li Mulan, she saw Chu Chenfeng naturally handing her a bowl of hot soup. Qingyu awkwardly withdrew her hand from the air and glanced at Xingyi, who was watching her heart and eyes. Forget it, she should not be a light bulb here.
"Are you free tomorrow?"
Li Mulan took a sip of soup and said, "Yes, I do." Then she suddenly remembered the agreement with Xingyi and looked at him. "No, I have an agreement with Commander Xingyi. Isn't that right, Commander Xingyi?"
Xingyi's back stiffened as he met his master's cold eyes. "Yes... yes, that can also be done the day after tomorrow. Princess should accompany the master tomorrow. We can do that anytime. The master's business is the real business, um, the real business."
Chu Chenfeng raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter?"
Li Mulan smiled and said, "Commander Xingyi wants his men to compete with my brothers, and has arranged to have a competition at the martial arts arena in your mansion."
Chu Chenfeng glanced at Xing Yi without leaving any trace, and Xing Yi was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. What does the master mean by this? Does this mean he disagrees?
"I see. I'm also quite interested. Let's do it tomorrow afternoon. We'll go somewhere tomorrow morning. It won't take long."
"Okay, Commander Xing, did you hear me? Let's make an appointment for tomorrow afternoon. Your master will also go to watch the battle, hehehe."
Xing Yi smiled and said, "Okay, I will make the arrangements."
Then he glanced at his master cautiously, and he didn't seem angry.
The two of them ate quietly and chatted occasionally. The scene looked particularly harmonious.
Li Xun, who came to look for Li Mulan, saw this scene outside the yard. He stood there for a while and then left, saying he would come back later.
"By the way, has your master sent any letter? Didn't he say that he was with our old fox? How come the two of them haven't arrived yet?"
Chu Chenfeng shook his head. "My master is not a man who cares about small matters. If he really wants to hide, even I will have a hard time finding him."
Li Mulan picked at the remaining food in the bowl and said, "There are only three days left until the wedding day, and it hasn't arrived yet."
Chu Chenfeng saw her disappointment and said, "Don't worry, they will definitely be here."
Li Mulan still looked a little aggrieved. She had been away for a really long time this time. Apart from the first two letters, the old fox had never sent her any more letters. It was too much, really too much.
"By the way, your fourth brother came to see me yesterday."
"Fourth Senior Brother?"
Li Mulan's fourth senior brother Shangguan Jing, now 31 years old, is the head of the world's number one family. He is old-fashioned and dull. Among Li Mulan's eight senior brothers, except Xuanming, she is most afraid of this fourth senior brother. He is serious, too serious.
Although Shangguan Jing was not good at expressing himself, Li Mulan really loved him but just didn't know how to express it.
"What does he want from you?"
Chu Chenfeng smiled and looked at Li Mulan with interest, "Of course, it's for you, too, to warn me."
He was used to it anyway. Apart from the eighth brother Xiao Heng, which of her senior brothers hadn't made things difficult for him? However, the one he feared the most was his cousin Xiao Heng. After all...
Chu Chenfeng's eyes flickered as he looked at Li Mulan, then shook his head helplessly. Such a perceptive person was actually so slow in the relationship between men and women. But it was better this way, otherwise... maybe he really wouldn't have a chance.
Li Xun returned to Li Cong's yard, and Li Yi asked in confusion, "Is Lan'er not here?"
Li Xun smiled and shook his head. "The prince is dining with Lan'er. I thought I would go find her later."
When Li Yi heard this, his brows furrowed. He stood up and was about to look for someone, but was stopped by Li Cong who was standing beside him. "Well, if that's the case, let's have dinner first and talk about things later."
Li Yi was helpless, "Dad."
Li Cong stroked his beard and said, "They are getting married soon. They are just having dinner together. Why are you so angry every time?"
"Then...then you haven't gotten married yet?" Li Yi looked a little lost.
Li Yun smiled, "Seeing my elder brother like this, I won't dare to have a daughter after I get married."
Li Xun patted Li Yi on the shoulder and said, "Who said it wasn't true? If you really want to get married, you will be so reluctant."
Li Yi drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and felt even more depressed.
Li Cong found it funny to see his son like this. He patted his eldest son on the shoulder and said, "Lan'er is not young anymore. She will eventually get married. Fortunately, she is in Kyoto, under our noses, so we can see her often."
"Yes, son, I know. But I'm still worried. You just said that after the wedding, the Regent will go to the border. That...that's a battlefield. What if..."
Li Cong's expression suddenly changed, "Be careful with your words."
Li Yi pursed his lips and said, "I know that the prince is an undefeated god of war. But swords and guns have no eyes, and I am just worried."
Li Cong sighed, "Dad understands, and Dad is worried too. But Boss, I have to be loyal to my master. There are many things that are my responsibilities and my mission."
How could Li Yi not understand? He opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.
The next morning, Li Mulan was woken up by Qingyu because Chu Chenfeng had arrived.
Li Mulan yawned. Li Cong called her over yesterday and they talked for a long time. She was still sleepy.
Qingyu felt a little distressed when she saw this, "Should we tell the prince that we can go later?"
Li Mulan waved her hand, "No need, sister. I'm not that delicate. Make me a cup of strong tea and I'll be refreshed."
Qingyu was helpless, but she could only listen to her.
Li Mulan never thought that Chu Chenfeng actually brought her to visit the grave. Looking at the words on the tombstone, Li Mulan looked at Chu Chenfeng cautiously, "This... is your mother?"
