Chapter 183 Li Yueru
“Yes, I was thinking “How could this happen?”
"What do you think?"
"I didn't expect it."
"No, you thought of it, but you don't want to believe it."
It's here, but the facts should be somewhat different from what I think."
"So you think so well."
"It seems like before... I just understood that, right?"
"Haha, okay, you're the big brother!"
Xu Luo and Huangfu Chongzhi sat on the bank of the river. The night breeze was slightly cool and the river water flowed quietly in front of them.
There were two pots of wine beside the two, but there was no food.
Huangfu sighed and said, "I still don't believe that he will be the father's person. How can I say that... Since I was a child, I have been a little afraid of him and dare not be too close to him. He doesn't like me either. Haha, maybe I think it's a shame to have an eldest son like me."
"I was too young at that time and didn't understand why this was the case. I didn't understand the difference between me and other brothers. Why were other brothers held in their hands and cared for them with care, but I... could only grow up in pain every day under the torture of eunuchs and nanny."
"Later, I started to work hard, started to study hard, and started to practice martial arts diligently. I think that being a good child, the father might... maybe like me. So I kept working very hard, keeping a smile, keeping myself upright, and being a useful person."
"Later, when I was fourteen or five years old, I understood more and understood my identity. So I became very low-key, began to use my heart to the animals and plants I like, began to study medicine, and began to refine alchemy..."
Huangfu Chongzhi's voice was a little low, his tone was a bit self-deprecating, and then he said, "Until we have achieved some achievements on the southern battlefield, this is also a blessing for you. Our fame is louder than before. The father's attitude towards me is gradually changing. The father has been the emperor for so many years, and he is a real emperor. Even those of us who are sons cannot guess what he thinks, but today's things... I can't understand the necessity of him doing this."
"You can't figure it out because you are in this situation and he is your father's person. There is no need to doubt this matter anymore, but the main problem is who he is on behalf of!" Xu Luo grabbed the wine pot and took a sip.
Huangfu Chongzhi looked at Xu Luo with some confusion, then narrowed his eyes slightly and asked seriously: "You mean..."
"Well, this person has no identity. I think someone is deliberately misleading it. I just thought of it." Xu Luo said, picking up a stone from his side and throwing it into the river.
The stone made a thud, splashing a wave, and then sank into the river and disappeared.
"Just like this stone, it actually exists, but now I throw it into the river. Except for the moment I touch the water surface, it makes a little sound and splashes a little wave. Now... where are you looking for this stone?"
"Then why do you want me to kill him?" Huangfu Chongzhi asked.
"If he doesn't die, it will be even more troublesome. Who will we hold the responsibility? The emperor? Or the prince, or the sixth prince?" Xu Luo said.
Huangfu Chongzhi smiled bitterly and said, "Indeed, if this man hadn't said the last words, maybe we could still keep him a way out, but after he knew that we wanted to kill him, he shouted that sentence... and there would be no way out."
"I suddenly felt that the biggest possibility of this incident was for me." Huangfu Chongzhi said: "Although I was just guessing, I think... my guess is very close to the facts."
"It's true that it's for the two of us. The other party is very clever. If you succeed, you will lose two major concerns. If you fail... it doesn't matter. The person on the left looks like it belongs to your father." Xu Luo said.
"I have been away from that circle and the various disputes between them. Why... I still have to get involved with me? What else do they have to worry about?" Huangfu Chongzhi had a rare look on his face.
"Don't think about it. As long as you live one day, as long as you become better day by day, they will not feel at ease every day." Xu Luo said.
"If I can really escape from the world, I really want to completely stay away from these right and wrong." Huangfu Chongzhi looked at the river flowing quietly in front of him and whispered: "Is it really that difficult to be carefree?"
"Is it difficult?" A crisp, slightly cold sound came from not far away.
A hint of surprise appeared on Huangfu Chongzhi's face and asked, "Why is the girl here?"
Xu Luo had no surprise expression at all. He didn't know when the woman in white came. The other party was very strong and he could not sense the aura on her body.
But Xu Luo has a pair of eyes that can penetrate obstacles...
Just now, Xu Luo had already discovered the woman in white hidden not far away. Although she didn't know why she came here, she didn't feel any malice from her.
Especially today she took action and saved Huangfu Chong's life, so Xu Luo didn't show any emotion and let her listen there.
Deep down, Xu Luo always felt that the woman in white had a very detached aura on her body.
Not to mention that even if he wanted to do it, he probably wouldn't be the opponent of this woman in white.
"You are being hunted down everywhere. I'm a little worried, so I come and take a look." The woman in white said very naturally, then walked out of her hiding place.
"I am not a relative or a good friend. I have saved my life today. I haven't thanked you yet." Huangfu Chongzhi said and stood up and wanted to salute the woman in white.
"No, I will save you today and I will take it as a favor to you." Although the woman in white had a cold voice, she gave people a very real feeling...
"Haha, my ten taels of silver are really enough." Huangfu Chongzhi didn't expect that the woman was so straightforward and smiled: "When it comes to a girl's realm, it is naturally not difficult to be carefree, but we people living in the secular world are full of distractions, so how can we be carefree?"
At this time, Huangfu Chongzhi also felt that her difference was from the woman in white. It was almost impossible for a secular woman to have the skills of her, let alone her unparalleled temperament!
"Who will be carefree when I say that I am in this state? Wouldn't it be embarrassing to have no money when eating?" The woman in white said in a crisp voice, and glanced at Huangfu Chongzhi: "I don't think you need to be so tired of the world..."
"Word of the world?" Huangfu Chongzhi was stunned and said, "Maybe..."
Xu Luo twitched the corner of his mouth, stood aside and said, "I seem to think that I am standing here... is a bit redundant?"
The woman in white glanced at him and nodded: "It's a little bit."
"Okay, I'll do it, you guys continue..." As he said that, Xu Luo turned around and walked away without hesitation.
Huangfu Chongzhi was caught off guard and looked at Xu Luo's back: "Isn't this good?"
"I think it's good." Xu Luo even took the shaking step, shook his body, and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.
The woman in white looked at Xu Luo's back and said thoughtfully: "Your brother is very strong."
"Yes, he is very strong!" Huangfu Chongzhi said.
"No, what we meant is not the same." The woman in white said seriously: "He has a very special aura on his body. This aura is rare even in the disciples of the sect."
"Is that? I don't know this." Huangfu Chongzhi smiled and asked, "I don't know the girl's name yet..."
...
The next morning, Xu Luo saw Huangfu Chongzhi and showed a strange smile: "You are talking pretty well?"
"You boy..." Huangfu Chongzhi smiled embarrassedly.
The little fat man came over with curiosity: "What's the conversation good?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Xu Luo pulled the little fat man away: "Learn from me to study the construction of the city, we have a lot of people to use!"
"Third brother, you can't do this. If you have something to do with your elder brother, you will hide it from me!" The little fat man argued with reason.
Sui Yan, who was looking at the drawings, rolled his eyes: "White idiot!"
"Damn, Sui Xiaoshi, I am your fourth brother. If you scold me, I will turn against you!"
"Come on, I'm just about to try what kind of suppression will the sixth-level sword master fight against the fifth-level sword master..."
"San brother, please let me go quickly. I want to teach this lawless guy a lesson!"
"Stop talking nonsense. The task of disposing of those prisoners and letting them work hard is very arduous!" Xu Luo said seriously.
"..." The little fat man looked up at the sky: "What kind of brothers are I here!"
These prisoners were very obedient. After seeing the strength of Xu Luo and others, they completely lost the idea of fighting. Besides, the main generals were all dead, and the only ones were left. No difference between being disobedient and seeking death.
Half a month passed in a flash, and the prototype of a castle appeared here.
Sui Yan frowned every day, directed these prisoners, and fully utilized his talent in organisms. Even Xu Luo was a little shocked. He had to remind Sui Yan: "This is our fiefdom castle, not a war fortress!"
The construction materials were transported from far away places, and Tang Yong, Li Yu and the Yuan brothers were responsible for these things.
Everything seemed calm.
No one came here to harass anything again.
However, the woman in white disappeared every day and would come here at night to sit by the river and chat with Huangfu Chongzhi.
Gradually, the little fat man and others also knew about this. For this reason, the little fat man teased and said, "The boss's spring is here..." He was caught by Huangfu Chongzhi and taught him a lesson, which also prompted the little fat man to start practicing diligently.
Huangfu Chongzhi did have some strange feelings for this woman in white who appeared every night. He knew that her name was Li Yueru, and he knew nothing about her identity and never inquire about it.
Li Yueru is cold and straightforward, and she is rude to Xu Luo and others. She only seems to have different opinions about Huangfu Chongzhi. She occasionally eats with these people, but she has hardly spoken to others.
Another half month has passed, and the castle on the fief has been fully capped.
Only the interior decoration is left, which is not something that can be accomplished in a short time.
Chapter completed!
