In the living room of Zhu Ziyuan, Li Kuang was pacing back and forth.
On the side, Yu Tong and Li Xin stood with their hands tied, looking a little scared. From the looks of the two of them, they seemed not to have expected such a situation, and their expressions were vaguely panicked.
As soon as Li Ming entered the door, he saw this scene and was stunned for a moment.
"Who asked you to go next door?"
Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Li Kuang stopped as soon as he saw him. First he opened his eyes wide and yelled, then glanced at the neighbor not far away, and then lowered his voice, "Come in!"
Li Ming was startled and screamed secretly. But seeing the angry expression on Li Kuang's face, he didn't dare to speak, so he could only run over obediently.
"What did you do in the past!"
Li Kuang was so angry that he was blowing his beard. He was not short and had a fat body. Where he stood, he was basically equal to the combined weight of Li Ming, Yu Tong, and Li Xin. In addition, with an angry look on his face and a full sense of oppression, the three of them were stunned.
Li Ming's mouth trembled, "I, I..."
"Didn't I tell you not to disturb him? Are you deaf? Or are you turning a deaf ear to my words? Ah?"
"I, uncle, I didn't provoke him, I just, I just..." Li Ming explained slowly, "I just wanted to go over and say hello to him and get acquainted..."
"I'll marry you!" Li Kuang opened his mouth and spat in his face, "Do you know who he is? Do you know that your uncle and I are counting on him for my future! You...
"
"I..." Li Ming was speechless.
Yu Tong and Li Xin stood aside, silent. The former lowered his head, clenched his hands tightly, with a trace of unhappiness on his face.
Li Kuang scratched his head, pointed at the three juniors in front of him, and was filled with anger and anger. Hitting was not allowed, and scolding did not help. He was so angry that he sweated, and he stamped his feet and cursed in the street.
"Tell me everything you just said over there, and what he said, all of it! Don't miss a word!"
"Yes, okay..."
Li Ming nodded quickly. Because the time he spent with Wen Wu wasn't long, and it wasn't long, and he didn't talk about any special topics, he still remembered it clearly and almost didn't miss anything.
Li Kuang walked back and forth irritably while listening, fidgeting. After a while, when Li Ming finished speaking, his expression looked better, "That's all? Nothing else?"
"Yeah, yeah! Yeah!" Li Ming nodded like a fool, and then said: "Uncle, you said that Master Wen has a special status, how can I dare to offend him? I just want to get acquainted in advance so that I can beautify my uncle in front of him in the future.
A few words..."
"Okay, okay!"
Li Kuang interrupted him impatiently and turned to ask Yu Tong and Li Xin. After waiting for the two women's confirmation, his expression softened, he touched his chin and said nothing.
After a while, Li Ming gained courage and said, "Uncle, what is this Young Master Wen..."
"I told you, don't ask questions you shouldn't!"
Li Kuang glared at him, "I made a mistake this time, but please remember this from now on. You must not talk nonsense in front of him, let alone offend him, you know!"
At this time, the three of them each had their own thoughts and agreed.
Li Kuang glanced at them and warned: "There are some things that I can't say clearly now, but you will naturally know in the future. No matter whether you are convinced or not, just hold it in for me!" After a pause, his tone changed slightly.
Wen Wen said, "Actually, I am doing it for your own good, and my future is secondary. But if you offend him in a daze, then it is not a matter of your future. It is understandable that you don't recognize him and don't know how powerful he is, but if you
Seeing that he is young and easy to talk to, you would think that he is harmless. That would be a big mistake. His methods... Well, you don’t understand, after all, if something happens, I may not be able to protect you.
, do you know?"
The three of them nodded in agreement, but their private expressions were different.
Li Kuang then lectured again, still cursing, but his tone was much gentler than before. After another moment, he left with a heavy heart.
Li Ming and others went to the door to see him off, until they saw him disappear outside. Li Xin took a peek, but felt uneasy, so he trotted to the door, stretched his neck and looked to confirm that the person was gone.
Yu Tong had a sullen face and said indignantly, "Humph, what's so big about it!"
"Shh!" Li Ming hurriedly signaled to be silent.
"Humph!" Yu Tong glared at him, turned around and walked into the hall.
"Let's go, let's go." Li Xin ran back and slapped his chest repeatedly, "It scared me to death. It scared me to death. I have never seen my uncle so angry. I thought he was going to hit someone."
"Don't talk nonsense, it's not that exaggerated." Li Ming said, but his tone was very weak.
"Really, you didn't see how dark my uncle's face was when he saw me coming out from that person. It scared me to death." Li Xin patted his face, still feeling frightened.
"Did he just happen to see you when you came out?"
"Who says it's not? He's standing right at the door."
"Ah, what I said." Li Ming covered his face.
"Brother, brother, tell me, that person..." Li Xin came to him, pointed to the courtyard on the other side, and asked in a low voice: "Who is that person? Why is even uncle afraid of him?"
"You ask me, who should I ask..."
"Who else could it be!"
Yu Tong grabbed the words and sat down angrily, "There are people with names in Taiming Mansion. Which of us doesn't know? I've never heard of anyone with a name. He might be an illegitimate son of a wealthy family. He's shameless, so he went out.
That’s why we have to cover up!”
Li Ming paused and smiled bitterly. But it had to be said that this was exactly what he had guessed in his heart.
Li Xin frowned innocently, "No way? I don't think he looks like him."
"You don't believe me when I say you're stupid. Can you tell that? There are too many people like him in Taiming Mansion. Isn't it just to go out and get gold plated so that you can be a decent person when you come back? I..."
"Shh, shh, please, my aunt, can you please keep your voice down?" Li Ming was so anxious that he was breathless.
Yu Tong was so angry that he deliberately raised his voice a few degrees, "Why keep it so low! What am I afraid of! Your uncle is afraid of him, you are afraid of him, what am I afraid of? I..."
"I know you're not afraid, but you listen to me first. Think about it carefully, who is my uncle?" Li Ming didn't want to talk to her, so he asked and answered his own questions, "He's from the Imperial Guard! He's from the Imperial Guard!"
I have been the master of the palace for more than 20 years. What kind of important person has I not seen in Taiming Mansion? Did you not see where he was sitting at the banquet just now? You..."
"So what, can he just curse people at will? He..." Yu Tong's voice paused. She was not a stupid person. She was in the middle of a fire just now and couldn't get around it. Now when she heard Li Ming's words, her heart skipped a beat.
one time.
Li Ming continued to remind: "Didn't you listen to what uncle said just now? He said that Young Master Wen is related to his future..."
Li Xin listened more and more confused, scratching his head, "What does that mean?"
Li Ming patted her on the back of the head and said, "Stupid, think about it, my uncle is a palace guard and only listens to the deployment of the town army. How many people in the entire Taiming Palace can decide my uncle's future?"
Yu Tong had obviously thought of this, staring blankly and saying nothing.
Li Xin was young and her brain was a bit exhausted. She scratched the head where she was slapped, pursed her lips and thought, then suddenly had a whim and muttered casually, "Could he still be the son of the Palace Master?"
Li Ming and Yu Tong looked at her.
Li Xin felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, raised his head and looked at the two of them.
