Chapter 894: Is Your Butt Hurting?

~8 min read 1,514 words

The wet nurse nearby was in a panicked rush.

Liu Zheng, however, was caught between laughter and tears.

"Stop busying yourself."

He sighed.

He didn't know what was going on, but this little brat Li Yun only recognized him; he wouldn't even acknowledge the wet nurse. Aside from looking for the wet nurse when hungry, the moment she held him, he would cry his lungs out.

As soon as he held him, the boy would grin and laugh, so happy.

Liu Zheng felt so stifled.

From childhood to now, he had never held a child like this.

But these past few days, he had truly watched a shriveled little black ghost turn into something good-looking bit by bit. His skin was delicate, and his big eyes were darting around.

"Oh, oh, oh, there, there, don't cry, don't cry, Uncle isn't angry, Uncle isn't angry!"

Liu Zheng was caught between laughter and tears.

Remember the website address.

The wet nurse nearby also watched, covering her mouth to hide her laughter.

Liu Zheng did not notice.

As for this fellow who had peed all over his pants and started crying first, Liu Zheng had lost his temper too; he could only hold him, stand up, and keep coaxing him.

Li Yun immediately stopped crying and giggled.

I (your father).

At this moment, he looked exactly like a father, so gentle, so patient.

"When did you arrive? Wait for me!"

As Liu Zheng coaxed him, Li Yun fell asleep in his arms, a smile still hanging on the corner of his mouth as he slept. Only then did he see that Li Xuanya had already arrived. With an embarrassed face, he put the child down and ducked back into the bedroom to change his pants.

Li Xuanya had long since snuck in through the door; watching Liu Zheng like this, her beautiful eyes crinkled into slits from smiling.

It was rare to see such a young master.

It was rare to see such a Liu Zheng.

Liu Zheng changed into a new set of clothes before coming out, then coughed and asked.

Li Xuanya was filled with worry.

Min Weizhong had been increasingly arrogant lately.

"Giggle, giggle, giggle, giggle, giggle, giggle."

Li Xuanya and the wet nurse laughed non-stop.

"How is the situation?"

The Duqi Duwei were originally meant to handle dangerous matters outside the city and generally did not get involved in palace affairs. If Li Hang could not help but deploy the Duqi at this time, it would truly be an act of rebellion.

The Southerner Party had been enduring these moves by the Westerners all along.

"Young Master, what is to be done? He is still searching everywhere for his younger brother's whereabouts."

As mentioned earlier, there were three military systems in Hancheng at this time: the Imperial Guard, the Duqi, and the Duwei. The Duqi were in Li Hang's hands, and the Duwei were in Min Weizhong's hands. The Imperial Guard, however, had always been in Li Tun's hands. But it appeared now that Min Weizhong had actually been in control of the Imperial Guard all along! This time, he finally could not hold back and brought out his final trump card.

Li Hang and his Southerner Party were facing Min Weizhong's aggressive pressure, but it was not easy to deploy the Duqi.

After all, once the Duqi were deployed, the nature of the situation would change.

Li Xuanya was stunned for a moment.

The situation in Hancheng had become unbearably tense.

Liu Zheng prepared three more letters.

Li Xuanya was tearful, looking with a bewildered expression at Li Yun, who was already fast asleep in Liu Zheng's arms.

Liu Zheng, however, gave a chuckle: "You go deliver three letters for me."

"Huh?"

Therefore, he only said one sentence.

"Stay calm and don't be impatient."

Li Hang had a headache recently.

One letter was for Li Hang.

What he was actually worried about now was that Li Hang might not be able to hold back; if he deployed the Duqi to strike at Min Weizhong, the severity of the matter would increase.

Of course, he had no dealings to speak of with Li Hang.

On one hand, while they were putting up futile resistance, on the other, he was also trying his best to endure the critical point of his own anger.

Until he received this letter from Liu Zheng.

"Stay calm and don't be impatient?"

Zhang Yuzhen had suddenly gone missing, Li Yun had suddenly disappeared, and the Westerners were pressing aggressively, already plotting to abolish Li Yun's status as Crown Prince. That was right; Li Hang had several times, watching Min Weizhong's arrogance and tyranny, wanted to issue an order to simply welcome the five thousand Duqi into the palace and carry out a massacre against these increasingly lawless Westerners.

But he held it back.

On one hand, he sent people to search for Zhang Yuzhen and Li Yun.

One must know, he was the leader of the group that wanted to kill Liu Zheng.

Stay calm and don't be impatient.

Stay calm and don't be impatient.

Li Hang found it very strange.

He and this Vice Minister Liu of Longyan had never had any dealings to speak of.

What did his sudden letter signify?

Zhang Xuan's troubles these days were much the same as Li Hang's.

His niece, Zhang Yuzhen, was the magic treasure he relied on for wealth and status. Li Yun was even more so the trump card he could use to advance further.

Of course.

Suddenly, his whole body jolted, and he stood up abruptly.

Could it be...

The second letter was for Zhang Xuan.

"Watch from the sidelines."

Watch from the sidelines?

Zhang Xuan was also very puzzled.

He was different from Li Hang; if Li Hang lost, he would lose everything and continue to be suppressed by the Westerners. But Zhang Xuan, as a bona fide merchant of the Royal Court, could completely defect to the side of the Westerners.

Therefore.

The content of the letter Liu Zheng gave him was also just one sentence.

Li Xuanya was very shocked.

Liu Zheng told her it was for her father, Li Tun.

Father King?

Watch from the sidelines.

He did not know that this sentence from Liu Zheng actually carried three meanings. At this moment, Li Tun was watching from the sidelines, and at this moment, he himself was watching from the sidelines. Therefore, Zhang Xuan was also suited to watch from the sidelines.

As for the third letter.

"Eldest Princess!"

The Imperial Physician also walked over.

Li Xuanya bowed slightly: "Sir, may Xuanya speak with Father for a while?"

Wasn't he in a coma?

Holding the letter, Li Xuanya walked tremblingly to the Yangxin Hall where her father resided. At this moment, a thick smell of Chinese medicine assailed her nostrils, and several eunuchs were anxiously gathered nearby.

"Your Highness the Princess!"

The crowd departed.

Only then did Li Xuanya stand by the sickbed, quietly looking at her father, tears streaming down her face instantly as she murmured: "Father, Grandfather has gone mad, he has completely lost his mind. If you do not wake up, I fear that Mother and I will both be in danger of our lives."

She could not help but throw herself onto the bed.

"This..."

The Imperial Physician hesitated for a moment and reminded her: "The King needs rest, Eldest Princess, please do not disturb him too much."

"Yes."

"Father, do you allow me to marry him?"

"He brought you a letter, saying it is the content you wish to see."

"Father, he is so silly; he clearly knew you were already in a coma. Does that mean he believes you will definitely wake up, right? It must be so. Father, he is very capable; he said you would wake up, so you will definitely wake up."

What she did not notice was.

Upon hearing this sentence, the fingers hidden under Li Tun's quilt could not help but clench tightly.

"Father, do you know? I met a young gentleman, truly a gentleman as elegant as jade..."

Li Xuanya looked back three times for every step she took.

Until she left.

The Imperial Physician then softly called out: "Your Majesty."

Li Xuanya kept muttering, her tears never stopping.

It was not until the Imperial Physician walked in that she left with a look of reluctance.

A letter was placed on Li Tun's quilt.

He was also watching from the sidelines.

A letter?

Sukjong Li Tun, thinking of the woman's rambling just now, where almost every sentence could not leave out this Vice Minister Liu from Longyan, did not know whether to cry or laugh.

The plump Li Tun slowly opened his eyes and, with the support of the Imperial Physician, sat up.

He was indeed.

Was not in a coma.

On it, strikingly, were also four characters.

A son-in-law is a romantic rival; this saying is absolutely correct.

He could not help but open the letter.

As a father, at this moment, he felt most uncomfortable.

"Does your butt hurt?"

Pfft.
