Returnee in Jianghu - C61
“Your eyes will recover soon. This is the medicine my master specially made for you. I’ll apply it on you.” Hua Yu was still holding the medicine, as if he had not woken up.
Tang Ming’s hand paused as he practiced his sword. Using his voice, he analysed Hua Yunxiao’s condition, “Young Master Hua has not slept well.”
“No, I slept too well. I ate chicken legs in my dreams all night long …” Hua Yu scratched his head in embarrassment: “When I woke up, I discovered that I was biting Li Qianchen.”
Therefore, the usually lazy Flower Yu came to XiaoChunfeng’s pharmacy early to help, causing him to think that the sun had risen from the west.
“If you want to apply the medicine, then go inside.” Tang Ming kept his words.
“There’s no need. There’s a bench not too far away. The scenery is also good. We can definitely go there.” Hua Yu said as if it was a matter of course.
Tang Ming thought about it for a moment.
After applying the medicine, Hua Yu was bored and laid down in the flower bush. “So boring.”
“Boring?” Tang Ming tilted his head in response to Hua Yu’s voice.
“Yeah, in the past, there were only two people in Blossom Valley. Even if you include me and Master, there were only six. Why is Blossom Valley so big? There are only so few people. It’s really cold.” Hua Yu put a blade of grass in her mouth and said, “I thought the martial arts world would be more interesting. I didn’t expect it to be so lively, but this calm and peaceful martial arts world is also very boring.”
“Many people wish for nothing more than the lives of others. Young Master Hua, on the other hand, wants to be more restless.” Tang Ming couldn’t see the scenery of Hundred Flowers Valley, but his heart was calm as the leaves swayed.
“No, it’s just that the past few days have been rather boring.” Hua Yu looked at the blue sky and said, “On a day like this, the longer the better.”
“Yes.” Tang Ming’s answer was as concise as usual.
“By the way, are you bored?” Lonesome Flower suddenly looked at Tang Ming and asked.
“If I’m bored, could Young Master Hua tell me his story?” Tang Ming casually said. He didn’t really expect Hua Yu to agree.
Who knew that Hua Yu would not hesitate to reply, “Good friend.”
Tang Ming moved his finger in surprise.
My father is a high ranking official, my mother is a daughter of Jiangnan, she is also Jiangnan’s number one beauty, but they do not love each other. My father is happy with my younger cousin, my mother also has someone she loves, but at least they are responsible.
When I was seven years old, the continent that my father governed had its own literary skills, and my father was unfortunately infected with it. At that moment, my mother’s lover returned to the village, and did not mind that my mother had already married and wanted to take my mother away. Everyone thought that my mother would abandon my father, and even my father advised my mother to leave, but my mother did not.
“Mother said he did not love Father, but people are not like plants and vegetation, they have accompanied each other for more than ten years.” Mother said he did not love Father, but people are not like plants and trees, and they have accompanied each other for more than ten years.
“The uncle’s surname is Cai, everyone calls him Lord Cai. Lord Cai is indeed loyal, and he handed me over to his trusted aide to send me to the capital. However, that trusted aide threw me into a beggar’s nest.”
“After that, Master took me out of the beggar’s nest and taught me martial arts and medicine, and took me everywhere. On the way, I met a lot of people, some good people who failed to cure me but were grateful for my help, and some ungrateful bastards who went back on their word after I saved them.”
“Later on, Master told me that the Prime Minister of the capital had been looking for a boy with the surname Hua. Coincidentally, the Prime Minister had the surname Cai, and my nickname Qi was Qi. I heard later that he had a falling out with a noble family in the capital, and the reason was that they arranged spies around him and even lost his nephew.”
“He’s also a ruthless person, but in just a year, that family was linked with all the other families. Not long after, he also resigned his position as prime minister and started teaching at a small school called Gu Fang Academy.”
Last time when I brought Young Master Li and Brother Tang to separate, I stopped by to see him. I heard that he died somewhere, and it was even Brother Tang and Brother Luo who solved the problem.
“Hm, what a coincidence!” Tang Ming was slightly surprised. Naturally, Tang Ming still remembered that small town and had a deep impression of that Mr. Cai.
“That’s right. Speaking of which, when I went there, there was someone who wanted to persuade him to leave the mountain. When I went there, the knot in his heart had just been resolved. Now, he should have returned to his original position, right?” Hua Yu spat out the grass in her mouth. “That’s quite funny. He’s lived in that small town for so many years, yet the people in the town didn’t know that he was the prime minister.”
Tang Ming did not reply. He felt that he had some sort of affinity with the people of the imperial court. He had been to the sect twice, and this was the first time he had met Mr. Cai, the former prime minister.
This was the second time they met the late emperor and empress dowager. After leaving Hundred Flowers Valley, they wouldn’t meet a prince or emperor, right?
Tang Ming gave a self-deprecating laugh. He felt that he really was indulging in wild fantasies.
[I am lucky to have met one, but now I want to meet a third or fourth opponent?]
“The flower leaves the flower.” Li Qianchen walked over on the small path with a wronged expression on his face. Of course, he did not notice Li Qianchen’s mental state, which was colder than Tang Ming’s. His guilty eyes were wandering around as he asked, “Qianchen, you’re awake?”
“Yes.” Li Qianchen glanced at Tang Ming as his tone turned even colder, “What are you doing?”
“Master told me to apply the medicine for Brother Tang.” Since Hua Yu’s eyes were closed, he did not dare meet Li Qianchen’s gaze.
Tang Ming: “…”
He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but he felt that the surroundings had become much colder.
Hua Yu looked at Li Qianchen’s handsome face, which still had teeth marks on it, and thought that Li Qianchen was angry because Li Qianchen had been bitten by him. She hurriedly said, “Don’t be angry about that, there’s medicine in my room, I’ll make sure those teeth marks will disappear in an hour. I’ll help you apply the medicine when we get back, don’t be angry.”
After listening to Hua Yusheng’s words, the cold air around Li Qianchen began to warm up.
Lonesome Flower heaved a sigh of relief.
“The relationship between Young Master Hua and Young Master Li is really good.” Tang Ming sighed with heartfelt emotions.
“That’s right, that guy was my only playmate when I was young, even though he only stayed in Blossom Valley for two months.” Hua Yu was beaming with joy as he spoke.
“Yes.” Li Qianchen did not refute Hua Yuzhan’s words. Instead, he said, “He used to be a chatterbox.”
“If you have the ability, you can stay in the Blossom Valley. If no one talks to you for a month, you’ll probably become a chatterbox.” Hua Yu pursed her lips in dissatisfaction.
“Oh.”
