Li Muchan said: "If it wasn't like this, why should I be like this?... By the way, Jinghua, why are you so obsessed with not practicing my mental skills?"
"My life is not interesting. I might as well leave early and make you sad for a while." Dugu Jinghua snorted.
Li Muchan shook his head and said, "Is there anything else? Is it about the Zhu family?"
"You know?" Dugu Jinghua frowned and said, "Did Xiao Heng say that?"
Li Muchan said: "Brother Dugu didn't say it, I just guessed it. I know that your family and the Zhu family have restored their relationship now. They must have benefited from it, so they can only marry."
"Huh!" Dugu Jinghua pursed his lips tightly.
Li Muchan saw that her lips were dry and peeling, and sighed: "You, let me help you. First, practice the mental method, and then cure your disease!"
Dugu Jinghua said: "As soon as I recover from my illness, you will leave again, right?"
Li Muchan said: "If you don't want me to leave, I won't leave!"
"Really?" Dugu Jinghua's bright eyes suddenly shone brightly: "You really don't avoid me anymore?"
Li Muchan sighed: "You... you really want to see me, so just crush the jade pendant, and I will naturally come over."
"What's the point?" Dugu Jinghua shook his head and said, "You don't want to come, and I don't want to force you."
Li Muchan shook his head and sighed: "You are still arrogant!...Forget it, sit up and I will help you do exercises to heal your injuries."
"No need, I can do it myself." Dugu Jinghua blushed.
Li Muchan turned his head and said, "You put on your clothes first."
Dugu Jinghua said no more. With a rustling sound, he put on his Luo shirt and sat up cross-legged. Li Muchan took off his shoes, got on the couch and sat behind her. He put his palms on her vest to ride out the gurgling internal energy.
His internal energy was extremely pure, but almost all of her internal energy was swallowed up by the cold air. After the cold air swallowed up the internal energy, it became stronger and stronger. Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, she was terminally ill and incurable.
This is indeed the case. Such a heavy cold has completely eroded the body, and it is indeed incurable. However, after Li Muchan's internal energy enters, the cold air suddenly turns into nothingness like white snow meeting hot soup. Under the flow of pure internal energy, there is no trace of cold air anymore.
, and then the internal force moves along the specific mental method to suppress the generation of cold air.
Li Muchan was not in a hurry to close his palms, and used his kung fu to adjust her body, then slowly closed his palms, and suddenly pulled her gently into his arms.
Dugu Jinghua's face suddenly turned red, her delicate body stiffened for a moment, and then softened into a ball of mud. Li Muchan hugged her gently, feeling her warm breath, and let out a long sigh of relief.
When he first heard the news that Dugu Jinghua was seriously ill, he was filled with panic. Now his heart finally settled. His thoughts were agitated and he couldn't help but hold her in his arms. He was really afraid of losing her again.
Dugu Jinghua leaned against his chest and could feel Li Muchan's fear and joy. His heart was sweet, and he only hoped that time would stay here forever and never flow around again.
The two hugged each other gently, but Li Muchan had no evil thoughts in his heart. He only felt that her body was light and soft, and she was soft and boneless in his arms, which was an indescribable tenderness.
After a long while, Li Muchan said softly: "Tell me, what is going on?"
"This is embarrassing to say." Dugu Jinghua sighed and lay motionless in his arms.
Li Muchan hugged her gently and sighed: "Is it the head of the Dugu family who wants to marry you to the Zhu family?...Oh, this matter is really..."
"Well, elder brother has this idea." Dugu Jinghua nodded lightly and said: "But I rejected it, but I was also frustrated."
Li Muchan said: "Master Dugu has gone too far."
Dugu Jinghua shook his head and said: "Men are ruthless and unjust by nature. I was so angry at that time that I took out my anger on you on my elder brother. After a fight, I had the idea of death."
Li Muchan sighed: "You are such a silly girl."
Dugu Jinghua said: "My life is really not interesting. You are like this, and my elder brother is like this. It is better to die cleanly, so as not to suffer in the world again."
Li Muchan smiled and shook his head: "How can there be only bitterness and no sweetness in the world? If you suffer a lot, there will always be something sweet, right?"
Dugu Jinghua snorted and said, "How did you know I was sick?"
Li Muchan said: "I heard this from a disciple of the Zhu family. I have been avoiding news about your four major families to avoid being sad."
"Humph, you finally have some conscience." Dugu Jinghua said angrily.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay. It means our fate is not over yet. Never do this next time. If you make me sad and don't give me a chance to make up for it, my life will be over!"
"Hmph, you may sound nice, but you're still pretty and happy!" Dugu Jinghua curled his red lips.
After a while, her cherry lips regained their plumpness and beauty.
Li Muchan said: "I am indeed a romantic guy and a bad guy."
Dugu Jinghua said angrily: "You can't be more restrained!"
Li Muchan sighed: "It's not that I think about it, I really can't help it. Just like if you like me, aren't you forcing yourself to suppress it, and eventually you can't suppress it anymore?"
Dugu Jinghua shook his head and sighed: "I'm done!"
The two of them chatted privately for a while, then the sound of footsteps was heard. Li Muchan quickly let go of her, floated off the couch, and sat on the edge of the couch. The two of them returned to their serious appearance.
"Auntie!" Dugu Meng's crisp voice sounded.
Dugu Jinghua said: "Meng'er, come in."
Dugumeng floated in wearing a white shirt, turned around and closed the door, held the door curtain with his hands behind his back and walked in. With his chest held high, he looked sideways at Li Muchan.
Li Muchan said: "Meng'er, what are you going to do?"
"Huh, sir, you've gone too far!" Dugu Meng directly attacked.
Dugu Jinghua said angrily: "Meng'er, don't talk nonsense!"
Dugu Meng didn't even look at Dugu Jinghua, only stared at Li Muchan and said angrily: "Sir, I have always respected you, but it's a pity that you have no place in my heart now!"
Li Muchan smiled bitterly and said, "What's going on?"
"Humph, I really didn't expect that you, sir, would be such a heartless person!" Dugu Meng snorted.
Li Muchan nodded: "Yes, I am a ruthless person."
Dugu Meng said: "I don't trust you anymore, sir. You are a bad guy and have harmed my aunt like this. Are you satisfied this time?"
Li Muchan lowered his face and hummed: "Don't interfere in adults' affairs. How are you doing with your calligraphy practice?!"
His sullen expression made Dugumeng's aura suddenly drop. He lost his confidence and lowered his voice: "Of course it's good. I'm not lazy."
She then realized it and said angrily: "Sir, I won't learn calligraphy from you anymore!"
Li Muchan said: "Is this your excuse for giving up halfway?"
Dugumeng hurriedly shook his head: "I want to learn from others. To learn calligraphy, I must first have a correct heart. Sir, your heart is not right, so your calligraphy is not good, so I won't learn it!"
Dugu Jinghua didn't stop him, he pursed his lips and looked at it with a smile, feeling indescribably sweet and proud.
Li Muchan snorted: "I've rebelled against you. Go back and write an article quickly, otherwise I will expel you as a student!"
Dugumeng said angrily: "Sir, I'm talking about business!"
Li Muchan said: "What I said is serious, why are you still here?"
"Aunt, look at him..." Dugu Meng turned to Dugu Jinghua for help, and saw Dugu Jinghua's smile and look on his face.
"Eh? Aunt, you...?" Dugu Meng's eyes widened.
Dugu Jinghua said: "Okay Meng'er, stop fooling around, Mr. has cured my disease, you can go back quickly!"
Dugumeng blinked his big eyes, looked at Dugu Jinghua, then at Li Muchan, and said hesitantly: "But... Auntie, don't you hate Mr.
Dugu Jinghua rolled his eyes at her: "What nonsense!"
Dugumeng was stunned: "Auntie, am I talking nonsense? You obviously hate your husband so much that you don't practice his mind and don't want to know his news."
Dugu Jinghua glanced sideways at Dugu Meng, sighing secretly that this little girl was really colorless. She could talk straight away without even blinking.
Li Muchan laughed, shook his head and said: "Okay, Meng'er, stop blabbering and go back and write quickly, otherwise I will really kick you out of the apprenticeship!"
"I know!" Dugumeng snorted, turned and walked away.
After she left, Li Muchan looked at Dugu Jinghua with a smile. Dugu Jinghua blushed and said angrily: "I really hated you back then!"
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Okay, let's not mention what happened at the beginning. Now there is another question, what should I do with your brother?"
"What should I do?" Dugu Jinghua asked.
Li Muchan said: "Do you really want to marry into the Zhu family as he said?"
Dugu Jinghua said: "Whoever wants to marry into the Zhu family, I already rejected my eldest brother."
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows: "Then he will give up and give up. I don't think the head of the Dugu family is a person who turns around easily."
"Since I don't agree, eldest brother naturally can't force it." Dugu Jinghua said.
Li Muchan shook his head: "It's unlikely. He must have tried every means to get you to agree, right?"
Dugu Jinghua shook his head and said, "You have misunderstood, brother."
Li Muchan snorted: "Maybe it was because you were forcing him so hard that he gave up, right?"
"It's nothing." Dugu Jinghua shook his head.
Li Muchan frowned and said, "They are indeed brothers and sisters, and we have to protect him all the time!"
"Forget it, forget about him!" Dugu Jinghua shook his head and said, "Actually, the eldest brother also has good intentions. Everything is for the family, not for himself."
Li Muchan sneered: "Sacrifice your own sister for the sake of the family, this is really a great thing, I admire you!"
Dugu Jinghua sighed: "As the head of the family, he could only do this. He had no other choice. He was also very painful. Later, I firmly opposed it and he stopped mentioning it."
Li Muchan nodded and didn't mention it again, saying: "It's a pity that I can't marry you now. Let's wait for a while and find an opportunity."
Dugu Jinghua curled his lips and said: "Now that Fu Feihong has become the wife of the clan leader, she cannot tolerate a man's half-heartedness."
Li Muchan smiled bitterly and nodded: "Madam, you pushed me hard."
"Is she forcing you to give up Miss Hai?" Dugu Jinghua said.
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows. As the head of the four major aristocratic families, it was not difficult for her to find out. She shook her head and sighed: "I was forced to give up before, but now I have changed my mind and forced me to marry."
"You want to marry Miss Hai alone?" Dugu Jinghua smiled: "You are not allowed to marry Miss Song, right?"
Li Muchan nodded and sighed: "I don't want to make any woman sad."
"You are such a bad guy!" Dugu Jinghua sighed.
Li Muchan smiled bitterly: "Now it seems that it is not easy to do this."
While the two were talking, footsteps sounded again. Li Muchan frowned. He saw the person coming, and after frowning, he showed a faint smile.
Dugu Jinghua resumed his martial arts. When he heard the footsteps, his face changed slightly. Li Muchan smiled and shook his head.
"Bang bang" twice, and then Dugujue's voice came: "Little sister, I heard that Mr. Li is here, and I came here to see him."
"Brother, let's wait for another day." Dugu Jinghua said.
Li Muchan flicked his sleeves, and the door creaked open. Li Muchan smiled: "Master Dugu, are you okay?"
Dugujue wore a purple robe, walked in slowly, clasped his fists and smiled: "Mr. Li, you are finally here!"
He found that Dugu Jinghua's face was rosy, restored to its former self, and his smile was even brighter: "Mr. Li has indeed regained his youth through magic. Is it okay for my little sister?"
Li Muchan nodded: "Heart disease requires heart medicine. Now that she has a solution, she is fine. As long as she doesn't do it again."
Dugujue lowered his head slightly and sighed: "This fact is also my fault. I shouldn't have made my little sister so angry that she has reached this point."
Li Muchan smiled lightly and said, "Why do you say this?"
"My little sister didn't tell you, did she?" Dugu Jue glanced at Dugu Jinghua.
Dugu Jinghua's expression was indifferent, nothing unusual. Dugu Jue sighed and said, "In the final analysis, it's still the Zhu family."
"I heard about the Zhu family. Concubine Zhu gave birth to a prince, who is quite favored by the emperor." Li Muchan nodded and said, "This is indeed a big event."
Dugujue sighed: "Yes, this is indeed a big deal!...The Zhu family has begun to waver because of this incident. I can only use some strange tricks to stabilize the Zhu family."
Li Muchan said: "You want Miss Jinghua to marry into the Zhu family?"
"This is just a delaying tactic. We need to stabilize the Zhu family first." Dugujue nodded and said, "How can my little sister really get married?"
Li Muchan smiled and shook his head.
Dugu Jue said: "Why, sir, you don't think so. Do you have any other clever tricks?"
Li Muchan shook his head and said with a smile: "Everyone has their own way of doing things, so I'd better not tell them."
"It doesn't matter, sir, it's okay to just say it." Dugu Jue said hurriedly: "I am all ears. I have always wanted to hear your advice from sir. Unfortunately, there has been no news from him and he has never appeared again."
Li Muchan pondered: "The Zhu family was swayed by the appearance of the prince. Was it because they wanted to use the prince to join the royal family?... On this point, it would be useless for the Zhu family to marry Jinghua. They will never compromise because of this."
"Everything depends on people. We can only do our best." Dugujue sighed.
Li Muchan sneered: "If you are doing your best, why use Jinghua as bait?"
Dugujue sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I also thought about Meng'er at the beginning, but it's a pity that Meng'er's charm is far different from that of my little sister."
Li Muchan sighed: "The Zhu family is really blinded by lard. I don't even think about it. The emperor is taking every precaution against the four aristocratic families just because he is afraid of being involved in the government. How can he just watch the Zhu family get their wish?"
"The emperor seems to like Concubine Zhu very much." Dugujue sighed.
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "If you marry Jinghua to the Zhu family, you might as well send her directly to the palace. Jinghua is a hundred times more powerful than Concubine Zhu!"
Dugu Jinghua rolled his eyes at him, and Li Muchan said: "Who is the Zhu family? Without them, you really can't defeat the emperor?"
"The key is that it involves the iron heart of loyalty." Dugujue shook his head and said: "The strength of the Zhu family has also increased greatly, and it should not be underestimated."
Li Muchan smiled: "It's just a bunch of rabble, what's so scary!?...The key is the emperor. In fact, the Zhu family is unreliable. It's just humiliating themselves by putting their hope in him. In my estimation, the Zhu family won the emperor."
With my instructions, I am making a false alliance with you."
Dugujue's face darkened: "Sir, what evidence do you have?"
Li Muchan shook his head and smiled: "You can understand this once you think about it. How could Concubine Zhu have a prince? If the Zhu family had not surrendered to the emperor, how could there be a prince?"
Dugujue's face was so gloomy that he could shed water. He shook his head and said, "The Zhu family should also know the severity."
"Humph, the Zhu family has taken a chance and used the disintegration of the four of you families in exchange for their own wealth." Li Muchan sneered, shook his head and said: "For the emperor, it is better for one family to survive alone than for the four of you to stay together.
It's much easier to clean up, so the Zhu family took advantage of this and wanted to give it a try."
Dugujue shook his head and said, "The lips are dead and the teeth are cold. How could the Zhu family not have thought of this?"
Li Muchan said: "They are so blinded by profits that they can't even think of this. Besides, if you want to be rich, you have to take risks. Otherwise, you will always be suppressed by you."
Dugu Jinghua said: "Brother, what you said makes some sense."
Dugujue nodded slowly and said: "I will check the Zhu family carefully and won't let them do anything bad."
Li Muchan smiled and said, "As for the Zhu family, I think there is only one way to control him."
"What method?" Dugujue asked.
Li Muchan said: "For marriage, it is not that you marry women, but that the Zhu family marry women over, and all the women from the Zhu family are married to the other three families!"
Dugujue frowned and said, "Can this be useful?"
Li Muchan said: "This does not make the Zhu family firm, but makes the emperor suspicious. You can put pressure on the Zhu family. If he does not agree, then you three families should destroy him first to avoid being destroyed by him in the future."
Dugujue thought for a while and said: "I have to think about it."
Li Muchan said: "Let's discuss it with the other two families. The emperor's methods are very clever. I think it's disgusting that you are internally unstable and will destroy yourself."
"Okay, let's say goodbye. Sir, let's stay here for a few days." Dugujue couldn't care less and left with clasped fists in his arms.
Dugu Jinghua saw him leaving, shook his head and said, "Sir, are you an alarmist?"
Li Muchan shook his head: "Most of them are my true thoughts. The Zhu family has to be on guard, and the head of the family is also confused. Once the Zhu family is determined, what's the use of marrying you?!"
Dugu Jinghua sighed: "Eldest brother is also anxious. Once the Zhu family rebels, the four great families may disappear."
Li Muchan smiled: "It's not that easy."
Dugu Jinghua shook his head and said: "Only when four families unite can they resist the emperor. Once one is gone, the other three together are useless."
Li Muchan said: "Forget it, don't worry about these trivial matters, let's go have fun."
