Zilan Xuanzhong, Wei Zhuang, Han Fei, and Zi Nu each sat in one direction of the table, while looking at Li Kai who was sitting at the bottom.
Zi Nu is quite sad.
Of course she has never seen what Li Kai looks like, but to capture the heart of a beauty like Madam Hu, he must not be ugly. What's more, when chatting with Madam Hu before, she had mentioned that Nong Yu's appearance was more like his father's, and on the contrary, he was not ugly.
She is not like a mother.
From this guess, Zi Nu can roughly guess that Li Kai's heroic appearance when he was still the Right Sima must have been a sassy and romantic person.
But now...he is wrapped in tattered linen clothes, and the hood of the jumpsuit covers his head, but a few strands of pale hair can be vaguely seen. His face is wrapped by several gauze, only the eyes and mouth are exposed, but it is enough
Others could clearly see his rough skin, messy beard, and his slightly staggering steps when he moved before. All these signs told others about Li Kai's embarrassment and desolation.
"Li Kai, I've met the Ninth Young Master." Li Kai hunched over, put his hands together and saluted Han Fei, his voice full of vicissitudes and exhaustion.
Han Fei and others could clearly hear that the man in front of them was extremely depressed.
"Master Li, I'm afraid you're not having a good time these days?" Han Fei poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip and said.
Li Kai's expression was dull, his cloudy eyes were dull, and his voice was steady and he replied without any fluctuation, "Ninth Young Master, you shouldn't have saved me."
"Let me pass away quietly, which is the best outcome for everyone."
"Maybe." Han Fei was noncommittal about Li Kai's desire to die. He needed to know the truth now, "But I hope Mr. Li can tell me first, did you kill Liu Yi?"
"That's right, I did it." Li Kai didn't care about anything now, and he didn't care about whether he was guilty or not, so he admitted it frankly.
"In Baiyue, Mr. Li, you were lucky enough to escape with your life. You haven't come back for revenge for so many years. Why did you suddenly come back to kill Liu Yi now?" Han Fei understood Li Kai's motive for killing Liu Yi, but he didn't know why he didn't come back until ten years ago.
Several years passed before he killed anyone.
"..." Li Kai raised his head slightly after hearing this question, glanced at Han Fei and the others, then lowered his head again, and after a moment of silence he said:
"Although I managed to survive back then, I was seriously injured and had to recuperate for a long time before barely regaining my ability to move. Then I got two pieces of news."
"I became a traitor."
"Huoyu Villa was robbed by giant thieves, and almost all the family members were destroyed. Only two sisters survived. She married Liu Yi, who was promoted to Zuo Sima, and her sister entered the palace as a concubine."
Li Kai did not mention the name directly, but the 'she' he mentioned was obviously Mrs. Hu.
"I'm not willing to accept this result, but there is no place for me in South Korea. No matter what, it's fine that she... and her sister are fine. As long as she can live peacefully... that's enough, so I haven't had it for so many years.
Try to set foot on this land again."
"But you're still back." Han Fei continued.
"Yes, I'm still back..." Li Kai murmured and sighed.
"I have been tracking down my daughter's whereabouts for these years, and it was only today that I finally found out the clues, and therefore had to return to this place."
Li Kai finally told why he returned to Xinzheng City at this time.
Zi Nu couldn't help but interjected and asked:
"You already know her identity?"
"..." Li Kai responded with silence. After a while, he avoided talking about Zi Nu's question and said, "After I came back, I learned that she was dead. I was angry that Liu Yi didn't protect her, so I sneaked into Liu Yi.
At the house, I actually heard him talking to himself that he was behind the tragedy at Huoyu Villa. He was so angry that he killed him on the spot because he was drunk and had no power to resist." p>
Han Fei nodded slightly, the truth of that night was now truly clear.
But Zi Nu asked again with a rare expression of awe, "My question has not been answered by Mr. Li yet!"
"She is living a good life. Now I... am not suitable to disturb her." After being silent again, Li Kai just gave such a specious answer.
Hearing this, Zi Nu sighed softly, her attitude relaxed, and she did not continue to ask any more questions.
Li Kai's performance has been very clear. He has obviously found out that Nong Yu is his daughter, but... despite working hard for more than ten years to search, he also knows in his heart that at this time, he is no longer suitable to recognize and reunite with his daughter.
.
Han Fei also remained silent about this.
As a Korean prince, he had no objection to his father's invasion of Baiyue for profit. After all, there was no right or wrong in the country's position. The Korean army did not wantonly massacre ordinary people in Baiyue, but only
If the royal family takes action, it will be nothing more than an unknown force at best.
After hundreds of years of disputes and wars, various countries no longer need to send troops in the name of sending troops. In recent years, the Qin State has not just attacked whoever it wants.
There is only strength and weakness, no right or wrong, nothing more than that.
But what happened to Li Kai was indeed a tragedy caused by man-made malice, and his father was one of the main creators of this tragedy.
"Master Li, what are your next plans?" After a while, Han Fei could only hold back his thoughts and asked quietly.
"Li is now a useless person and has no nostalgia for this world. He should just die."
None of Han Fei and the other two people answered this. Considering the relationship between Nong Yu and him, no matter what, we can't really let him die!
"Forget it, Mr. Li, please rest first, we won't disturb you."
Afterwards, Han Fei and the other three left and returned to Wei Zhuang's room.
"In this situation... Ninth Young Master, what are you going to do?" Purple Goddess asked Han Fei with a look of concern.
Han Fei, on the other hand, covered his eyes with his palms, supported his forehead, rubbed his temples with his thumb and middle finger, closed his eyes and replied in a deep voice:
"What can I do? I'll go to my father tomorrow to settle the case."
"You already have an explanation in your mind?"
"Explanation? This is not a big deal. Does it require skills to coax a person who only pretends to sleep to sleep?" Han Fei asked rhetorically.
"What about Li Kai, what are you going to do with him?" Wei Zhuang interjected and asked.
"Li Kai... Based on his relationship with Miss Nongyu, it's better for you two to decide." Han Fei decisively kicked the ball and handed the trouble back to the two girls, "Let him and Nongyu get to know each other, or should we let him and Nongyu get to know each other?"
You can think of other ways to deal with it yourself."
Zi Nu had nothing to say to Han Fei's evasion. His relationship with Nong Yu was far worse than that of herself and others, and it was indeed not his turn to decide this matter unless he could come up with a perfect solution. But...how to solve the problem?
Zi Nu set her sights on Wei Zhuang, expecting him to make a decision.
Wei Zhuang didn't want to speak, but Zi Nu kept staring at her, so he could only say dryly:
