Chapter 350 The Line That Was Hit 1
Li Mulan's loud shout scared everyone and made them stop. Niu Qiu lost his balance and bumped into Xing Yi, who was standing beside him. Xing Yi was kind enough to help him up.
Loach gave him a bright smile, "Thanks, brother."
Xing Yi waved his hand, "You're welcome."
Just as everyone was in doubt, Li Mulan looked at the two youngest children, the stool and chopsticks, and her eyes were full of seriousness, "Take it out."
The bench and chopsticks took a step back guiltily.
"Master, what are you talking about? Take out what?"
Chopsticks blinked a pair of innocent big eyes, looking so cute, "That's right, Master, why don't we understand what you are saying."
Li Mulan crossed her arms and looked at the two of them calmly, "Are you sure you want to play dumb in front of me? Don't make me say it a second time."
Li Xiaoqi guessed it as soon as he saw the situation, "Are you two doing your old tricks again? What did you steal? Why don't you take it out quickly? If the master gets really angry, I can't help you."
The two had no choice but to take out all the things they had just collected from the guards.
Wow, in just a few moves, they stole all the purses, leaving nothing behind.
Xing Yi looked at the various money bags handed over and marveled at the speed of their hands.
"Hey? This is my purse? This pattern was embroidered by my mother herself."
"Oh my, this is mine. When did it disappear? Why don't I feel anything at all?"
"And mine, oh my, all my interest from last month is in there."
"I didn't have much money, I lost it all, but at least I still have a few coins."
······
The guards took back their wallets and looked at the bench and chopsticks with a wary look. They had encountered this pickpocket before, but this was the first time they had seen one with such fast hands.
Li Xiaoqi picked up one of them in each hand and brought them to Dongzi. "You two, go back and reflect on your actions. Got it?"
The bench and chopsticks glanced at Li Mulan and complained quietly, "Who told them to be rude to us? We should just give them a little punishment."
Li Xiaoqi gave them both a chestnut on the forehead, "You still think you are right. Have you forgotten what the master said before? You can't steal things. Stealing things is wrong. Do you understand?"
Li Xiaoqi pretended to lecture her, but he was still observing Li Mulan's reaction out of the corner of his eye.
"Alright, alright, let's go, it will be dark if we don't leave now."
As a result, Mulan pointed her finger at the loach again, "And you, don't play dumb, I didn't point at you, did I?"
"Hiss!" Dongzi, who was at the front, also had a headache. How could there be another one? "You guys also took action? Return what you stole. These are all the regent's men. Aren't you embarrassing the master by doing this?"
Loach originally thought he could escape, and when he was discovered he did not deny it, but smiled awkwardly, "Oh, I couldn't help it, hehehe."
Then he handed a bulging purse to Xingyi. He looked reluctant to part with it, as he had never seen so much silver before.
When Xing Yi saw this, he touched his waist and instantly became uneasy. He... he was also robbed?
Seeing that he was still in a daze, Loach kindly stuffed the purse into his arms and said, "Uncle, please keep it."
But his eyes were fixed on Xingyi's chest, and it was obvious that he was unwilling to give in.
Xing nodded blankly, and then walked towards the door. He felt a little light-headed. He... was actually robbed? And he didn't even realize it?
Li Xiaoqi kicked Niu Qiu and said, "What's wrong with you? Are you so short-sighted? Do you know who he is? He is a favorite of the regent and a great commander. Don't offend him."
Loach stuck out his neck and said, "What's wrong with the commander-in-chief? He is not our commander. Besides, he looks gentle and refined. Are you sure he is the commander? With his skinny arms and legs, I guess he can't even beat me."
Xing Yi stumbled as he walked to the door and almost fell. Thin arms and legs? Are you talking about him? He looked at his thin but strong arms. They weren't really thin, were they?
Li Xiaoqi touched his chin, "His skills are OK, although not as good as mine, but about the same as yours. But you are so cunning, I guess he is no match for you."
"boom!"
This time Xingyi really fell down, and the noise was so loud that his men hurried over to support him.
"Commander, are you okay?"
"Commander, where are you injured?"
"Commander, do you want to find a palace doctor?"
After being helped up, Xingyi held his waist with one hand and pursed his lips tightly, feeling as if he had received 10,000 points of critical hit. He glanced at Li Xiaoqi and Niqiu who were talking, "I... am fine."
Li Mulan behind him couldn't help laughing, and Huo Yuanruo laughed out loud without giving any face.
When Xingyi heard the noise, he held his waist and walked faster.
Ye Tianyu also smiled and patted Huo Yuanruo, "Okay, give Commander Xing some face."
Everyone followed him out of the Regent's Palace.
The house that Chu Chenfeng settled in was really nice. It was quite far from the main street, so there weren’t many people and it was very quiet.
More than twenty young men swarmed into this elegant courtyard, their eyes full of surprise.
"Wow! Is this for us to live in?"
"Is the master's future husband still very generous? This house looks very expensive."
"And it's big enough that we can each have our own room."
"Wow, wow, I've never lived in a room by myself before."
"I'm a little scared living alone, what should I do?"
"Hey, Chopsticks, we are all here, what are you afraid of?"
"No, no, I'm scared. I'm afraid of ghosts. Bench, will you live with me?"
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll live with you. I really can't do anything about you. You're so old, but you're still afraid of ghosts."
······
The old housekeeper also came along, and seeing that everyone was very satisfied, he was also very happy, "I have also prepared a few sets of clean clothes for everyone, and the servants and maids are also there to take care of your daily life. But don't worry, I will never disturb you too much. I will just clean the house for you, boil some water, and prepare some meals for you."
"Wow, we have servants, so are we also local rich people?"
"And new clothes, that's great."
The old housekeeper looked kind and said, "Everyone has worked hard on the journey. The hot water is ready. Do you want to wash up and change into clean clothes now?"
A group of people looked at Li Mulan.
"Go ahead and clean up. But I'm going to say this first. If you do something weird to me again, don't blame me for being rude."
Her gaze lingered particularly on the loach, as this troublemaker was the most troublesome.
