New Life of Broken Cedar - C103

There were a few chirping birds in the starless night sky, and not even the moon could be seen. The imperial city was in complete darkness. Only a few areas were lit up, indicating that people were still alive.

Or the voice of a man shouting in the still night sky, “The sky is dry, be careful of the fire.”

Whose footsteps had disturbed the tranquility of the imperial city. These footsteps were somewhat hurried as they headed towards the Ximen Estate.

Before long, the place far away was brightly lit. It turned out that the Ximen family had received the imperial edict.

Ximen Qingfeng, who was drinking alone in his room, was called out by a knock on the door. He was slightly drunk because he did not know who would want to disturb people’s sweet dreams without sleep in the middle of the night. Even if he was not asleep, the cold wind outside made him even more drunk.

When he reached the front hall, he found his father and his father sitting in front of the hall, looking worried.

Ximen Qingfeng rubbed his forehead to clear himself up. He walked up and asked, “Father, what’s wrong?”

He had a feeling that his father’s expression was related to him.

Indeed, “The king has sent you to the capital tomorrow to guard the borders and prevent other countries from invading.”

Before Ximen Qingfeng could react, he was hugged. “My son, just where did you offend the king? Why are you living so arduously?”

The Ximen family had been ministers for generations, but there had never been a war outside. However, the more time passed, the thinner the children of the Ximen family would become. At this point, only Ximen Qingfeng was left as an only son.

“If the Lord wishes for this subject to die, this subject has no choice but to die.” These words suddenly appeared in Xi Men Qing’s mind. He had clearly seen how the King had treated Gu Mo Yan in front of him back then. The decision to start over was made by that monstrous person from their past life. They did not have any strength to resist.

“I’ll be the guardian of the capital realm then. Most of them are only three to five years old, and the shortest is to be able to see my father and father for a year or so.” He was no longer the aristocratic young master who had been spoiled badly by his father. He had to work hard, although the chances of that were slim.

“But Qingfeng, you have never been away from home for so long.” Bai Qi’s eyes were filled with tears as he spoke. His parents didn’t have any great influence that would allow a king to change his mind, so the outcome had already been decided. However, he, the reclusive lady from a noble family, had once again been unaware of Ximen Qingfeng’s love affairs. Naturally, he did not know Gu Moyan. Even the previous time when the Emperor came to search their house, he was still very confused. Now, he could only resent the Emperor for making Ximen Qingfeng go out to guard the palace.

“Father, I have grown up. Besides, didn’t I leave home to study when I was young?” You didn’t ask me to stay like that for a while? ” Xi Men Qingfeng comforted her and asked with a bit of a joking tone as he thought back to the past.

Isn’t that so? Back then, Ximen Qingfeng only knew that he played with the princes and concubines of the imperial clan all day long, and he had always carried them to the underworld in the Imperial City. If it weren’t for the speed in learning when he was young, he would have been quite intelligent. Otherwise, his grandfather would have used family rules to beat him up. Bai Qi was the one who spoke up many times to stop him.

It was only because he had left home for two years that Ximen Qingfeng’s father had paid attention to him. His master was a martial artist and was quite famous that he remembered that he wanted a disciple and knew the head of the Ximen family. In addition, Ximen Qingfeng had been so naughty that Ximen Qingfeng’s father had given Ximen Qingfeng to the martial artist to discipline.
