Chapter 149 I’m very angry
Li Mulan finally breathed a sigh of relief and saw the chair in the middle of the yard where Chu Chenfeng had just sat. She walked forward a few steps and sat there, as boneless and without any image at all.
“Ah… I’m so tired.”
Huo Yuanruo was a little dissatisfied. "I went to Sixth Uncle's place to look for you, and when I got there I heard that you had returned. Which way did you take? I didn't even run into you."
Li Mulan glanced at him and said nothing. She was really tired.
"Just a little while after I came back, the regent came with so many people. I thought he was going to take action, so I wondered if I should go get help."
Li Mulan laughed when she heard what he said, "Are you still thinking of calling for help?"
"Of course. I heard from my master that this regent is unfathomable. His fighting power does not match his age at all. He is even more powerful than my master. Besides, he has so many subordinates. We will definitely not be able to win in a head-on fight. If we don't call for help, there is no chance of winning."
Li Mulan looked at Qingyu and said, "Sister, this is incredible. Our Yuanyuan has even started to use his brain."
Qingyu brought a cup of hot tea over and handed it to Li Mulan, "Yuan Ruo is very smart."
Huo Yuanruo smiled brightly upon hearing this, "Sister Qingyu is still very discerning. Junior Master, look at you, you have such bad eyesight at such a young age, ah."
Li Mulan was too lazy to argue with him. She looked at Long Yi and hooked her finger at him.
Long Yi pursed his lips, took a few steps forward, knelt on one knee, and waited for Li Mulan's questions.
"Tell me, what happened? What is your brother's identity? Why did he assassinate the regent? Who is the mastermind behind this?"
"My brother's name is Jian Qi, and he used to be a member of the Killer Alliance. After I left the Killer Alliance, he had a big fight with me and then left the Killer Alliance. I haven't seen him in the past few years. It was also two days ago, the second day after I came to Kyoto, that he took the initiative to find me. He said that he had received a business that could make a lot of money. The mission was to assassinate the Regent. However, they were not very sure because they found out that my subordinate was also in Kyoto, so they set their sights on my subordinate and wanted me to participate in the operation, but I refused verbally."
"Jian Qi was very angry. I tried to persuade him again and again but he refused to listen. In the end, we still parted unhappily. But I was worried and secretly observed him for two days. So today, when he failed in his mission and was besieged, I rescued him."
"It is my fault for bringing trouble to the master. As soon as Jian Qi wakes up, I will take him away immediately and will never burden the master."
Li Mulan rubbed her eyebrows. The names of these two brothers are so strange. They don’t have surnames?
"Long Yi, Long Yi, are you crazy? Do you think that if you take the person away tomorrow, I won't be implicated? How can you be so naive after being a killer for so many years?"
Long Yi gritted his teeth and said, "The Regent...for the sake of Li Taifu, he won't really do anything to the master."
Li Mulan's eyes flickered, and she slowly stood up. Before anyone could react, she kicked the man far away. The aura around her instantly became cold, and even Huo Yuanruo took a few steps back. Of course, he didn't forget to bring Li Xi along. He couldn't go up at this time, or he would be implicated.
Li Xi had never seen Li Mulan like this. Maybe she would be very ruthless to the enemy on the way back. But this Long Yi was considered one of his own. His sister...
Qingyu's eyes flashed, but in the end she said nothing, let alone stopped it.
Li Mulan's face was as cold as ice. "I've been too good to you? So you think I'm easy to talk to? Long Yi, I can't let the Li family pay for my actions. If you dare to plot against me or the Li family again next time, you'll get out of here as far as you can. I, Li Mulan, don't need a disobedient dog."
Li Mulan had used a lot of strength in that kick just now. Long Yi knew he was in the wrong and did not use his internal strength to resist. He took the kick head-on, with a sweet taste in his throat. "I know I was wrong."
"I don't care what method you use, just find out the identity of the person behind this. You also heard my conversation with the Regent, Long Yi, don't make it difficult for me, and don't... forget your identity."
"Yes, I understand."
Long Yi lowered his head, making it impossible to see his expression.
"Go in and take care of your brother. Don't show up in front of me if you can't get the answer."
"Yes, I am resigning."
After Long Yi left, Qingyu walked forward and patted Li Mulan's back gently to comfort her.
Li Mulan sighed and leaned on Qingyu, "Sister, did I scare you?"
Whispering rubbed the top of her head, "You're not wrong."
Li Mulan buried her head in Qingyu's arms, "I'm very angry."
"Sister knows."
"I hate it most when people scheme against me. Not only did he scheme against me, he even schemed against my family. This is too much."
"It's Long Yi's fault."
"Next month, he won't be paid."
"it is good."
"I think adding five years is too little time. It should be at least seven years."
"Okay, I'll make him sign it tomorrow. Or, let him sign a contract to sell himself?"
"Hehehe," Li Mulan buried herself in Qingyu's arms and let out a low laugh, her shoulders shrugging, "It's great to have a sister."
"Cha~" A strange sound caused the two of them to turn around and look.
Huo Yuanruo was about to pick up a jar of wine. He looked at Li Mulan with an embarrassed expression, "This... this wine is so fragrant. I want to take a jar back."
Li Xi also felt guilty, because when Huo Yuanruo asked him just now, he also thought the wine was very fragrant... He was caught stealing, especially when his sister was so angry. Li Xi shrank his neck unconsciously. Would his sister kick him away?
Li Mulan stared at Huo Yuanruo expressionlessly, "This is the wine that Sixth Senior Brother gave me."
"You... have two jars, don't you? What's wrong with giving me one?"
"Sixth Senior Brother said that this wine cannot be bought even if you have money."
"Isn't that also for people to drink? Junior Uncle, give me some~" At this time, Huo Yuanruo didn't dare to be tough with Li Mulan. It was obvious that she was still angry, so she could only act coquettishly.
Li Mulan's mouth twitched, "Get lost!"
"Okay." As he said that, he held Li Xi in one hand and held the jar of wine in the other, and ran away like the wind.
On the other side of the Li Mansion, Li Xun, who had just returned to his yard, met a person who was supposed to leave in his yard, Xing Yi.
"Master Li."
Li Xun bowed to the other party and said, "Let me take charge."
"My master asked me to ask you something. I wonder if you have considered it carefully."
Li Xun said solemnly, "Please tell the prince that I am willing to serve you."
Xing nodded slightly, took out a letter from his bosom and handed it over, "The prince has instructed that when Li Taifu attends the morning court tomorrow, he must take charge of the imperial examination. Someone will secretly assist him."
Li Xun took the letter and frowned deeply. The imperial examination has always been the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites, and this Minister of Rites is... Oh, it looks like tomorrow will be another bloody storm...
