New Life of Broken Cedar - C104
He begged for mercy from his father, who always doted on him, but no one paid him any attention. He, the little Heavenly King, had stayed home, and could only endure the pain of having him study for two years.
Ximen Qingfeng cried as he was carried away by the servants. He was out of breath, away from that carefree childhood.
When he came back, he was already an elegant young man. Not only had he restrained his temper, but he had also learned a set of skills, especially the word “good”. In the short few years that followed, it had spread throughout the country.
When he thought back to that time, Bai Qi’s complexion seemed much better, and a smile appeared on his face. He smiled and said, “How could you compare then with what you have now?” Speaking of which, you really don’t know how naughty you are. Even your father can’t do anything to you. ”
“Hmm?” “Is that so?” Ximen Qingfeng did not remember how mischievous he was in the past. However, he clearly remembered how he had to live and learn from his master. Speaking of which, it was extremely painful.
“Yeah, it’s just that we don’t even know when you’ll return.” Ximen Qingfeng’s father nodded. He did not let Ximen Qingfeng change the topic and looked at him worriedly.
He knew about Ximen Qingfeng’s situation in the Imperial Palace, but this time …
“You are in great danger this time. The country next to the Capital Territory …” “In the past few years, he has been restless. I wonder how the discussions are going on regarding the envoys that were sent over to the King to negotiate peace.” Ximen Qingfeng’s father analyzed the current situation and continued, “Our Ximen family has never gone out to lead our troops. This time, when you go …” How about I find some of the old soldiers that I brought back from the border with you so that I can give you some pointers? ”
Xi Men Qingfeng did not have a good reputation either. He knew that he was lacking and readily accepted his father’s suggestion. “Alright, thank you, father.”
“Madam, you should go back and rest first. I’ll accompany Qingfeng to have a chat.” Ximen Qingfeng’s father turned his head and said to Bai Qi.
After the servant and Bai Qi left, only Ximen Qingfeng, his father, and the burning candles were left in the room. The soft sounds of the conversation continued until the fish belly had emerged from the horizon.
That night, Wen Linan came to the imperial capital as well. Naturally, he did not want to experience how comfortable the imperial palace’s brothel was. He estimated that the emperor would pass by the brothel tomorrow.
He had a request for the current emperor.
Until today, he had always been a fortune-teller traveling the streets. He had relied on helping wealthy families or poor families to count off their fortunes and earn some money so that he could live a life of begging.
Because he had always been alone, he didn’t care about where he lived, so it was fine. However, this also caused him to often stay at brothels. He treated others with extra gentleness and good looks, so he had a lot of intimate friends. Moreover, he had martial arts and also knew how to count it as destiny. Thus, the silver was naturally kept in his hands. Sometimes, he would even be a bit more generous than those rich people.
He wanted everyone in the world to know that he was Wen Linan, and he wanted everyone to think of him when he mentioned Wen Linan. He wanted those who had once mocked him to regret, and he wanted those who had looked down on his father to pay the price.
Of course, if the entire world knew that he was Wen Linjian, the only way to quickly become an official was to join the imperial court. He didn’t want to wait for next year’s Imperial Examinations, so he had no choice but to find Mo Gu Han.
