Chapter 96 The luckiest thing!

In another room in the City Lord's Mansion.

On the table in front of Chen Delin, there were several plates of snacks and two wine glasses.

A wine glass was placed beside him.

Another wine glass was placed opposite him next to a notched long knife.

He filled the glass opposite him and then spilled the wine on the floor.

"Old Marquis, I heard a good news today that Yu'an is actually a boy! Old Chen is so happy, I'll tell you about it too, so you can be happy too."

As he spoke, Chen Delin wiped his face heavily, his eyes red.

"If Asong hadn't saved me, he wouldn't have been injured on the battlefield, and..."

"Although the Cheng family has never blamed me, I, Old Chen, have blamed myself all these years and it's been hard!"

As he spoke, he pounded his chest.

After a long time, he let out a long breath.

"Don't worry, even if it costs me my life, I will protect the old lady, Yu'an, and the rest of the Cheng family."

After saying that, he picked up his own glass, clinked it with the glass on the other side, then raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

…

On the other side, Gu Shang brought Zhao Kuan to the study.

As soon as they stepped into the courtyard, they saw Chen Ying who had been waiting at the door.

"Gu Shang, you guys stay outside the yard and don't let anyone get close to the yard."

After saying that, Chen Ying glanced at Zhao Kuan, turned around and went into the study.

The distance was quite far, and the two people inside deliberately lowered their voices. In addition, there were other guards beside them, so Gu Shang couldn't get close to listen.

So I don't know what they said.

"Brother Gu, what's the important matter that Master Chen is looking for Manager Zhao for in the middle of the night?"

The guard at the side came up to Gu Shang and whispered to him.

"A few days ago, Manager Zhao did something wrong and was called in late at night to be scolded. When he came out of the study, he was so scared that his legs went limp. If I hadn't helped him up, he would have almost fallen flat on his face."

As he spoke, the guard covered his mouth and laughed secretly.

"It's only been a few days? He made a mistake again."

Gu Shang patted the man on the shoulder.

"Okay, never mind him

Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with us. I think Master Chen is in a bad mood these past two days, so we just need to do our job well and not make him upset."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the study, his eyes became deep.

I'm afraid it wasn't Zhao Kuan who did something wrong, but Chen Ying had something important to ask him to do.

Sure enough, after a while, Zhao Kuan walked out of the study with a sad face, and hurried out of the City Lord's Mansion.

One hand was still carefully covering his chest, as if there was something hidden in his arms.

It was time to change shifts, so Gu Shang found an excuse to separate from the guards who were on night watch, changed into night clothes, and quietly followed.

As soon as I arrived at Zhao Kuan's house, I saw him carrying a small package. He looked around cautiously and then got into a carriage.

Gu Shang followed all the way and saw the carriage leaving the city gate.

Why did he leave the city?

Was he going to deal with business matters?

But this was not something shameful, so why was he hiding?

Gu Shang had a hunch that something was wrong.

But he didn't have a token, so he couldn't follow any further and had to go home first.

After a while, a carrier pigeon flew out of the city.

…

On the other side, Cheng Shengxuan looked at the note in his hand with a frown.

There was nothing unusual about sending someone out of the city late at night, but since Yi Jiang knew Yu An's identity, he couldn't help but start to think more.

In addition, on that day, Shang Xiaomin and Chen Ying arrived almost at the same time.

If he said they didn't meet each other on the road, he wouldn't believe it!

Cheng Shengxuan stood up and walked to the window and said something to the outside.

"Go outside the city. If you find a carriage coming out of Beihuang City, follow it and see where it is going."

As soon as Cheng Shengxuan finished speaking, a black shadow flashed by.

If he hadn't blown up the dead leaves on the ground, it would have sounded as if he was talking to himself in the air.

After closing the window again, Cheng Shengxuan shouted outside the door.

"Cheng Feng!"

Hearing his voice, Cheng Feng pushed the door open and glanced towards the window intentionally or unintentionally.

These days, there are a few more people around the yard, and their martial arts are comparable to theirs, or even more powerful than them.

He mentioned the matter to the major general, but the major general said not to worry about it.

"Major General, what do you want?"

"Hurry up and send a message to Cheng Yao, asking them to keep an eye on the situation at the sweater shop in Muyuan Capital. If a manager shows up, always keep an eye on his whereabouts!"

"yes!"

After doing all this, Cheng Shengxuan took out the jade pendant, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally put it down.

Although he really wanted to discuss countermeasures with his elder brother, it was too late now.

"Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow."

…

Downstairs of Anluo's house.

As early as the first time he saw Yu An appear next to An Luo, Cheng Sitao bought the house downstairs from An Luo's house.

This will make it convenient for Yu'an to see and take care of the little one at any time when he comes over in the future.

In the room, after coaxing Yu An to sleep, he got up quietly.

Just as I was about to go out, I suddenly heard a whisper in my sleep.

"Daddy, don't go."

He turned his head and saw that the little guy was sleeping very uneasily, with his eyebrows wrinkled and his little hands scratching around in front of him.

"Okay, okay, daddy won't leave."

Seeing his uneasy look, Cheng Sitao felt a slight heat around his eyes and a lump in his throat.

Holding Yu An's little hand with one hand, he gently stroked the little guy's head with the other hand, comforting him softly.

As if feeling the comfort from his loved ones, Yu An's brows gradually relaxed, his big eyes under his eyelids turned, and he opened slightly.

It was the first time that Yu An spent the night in an unfamiliar environment, and he felt a little dazed when he opened his eyes.

The little brain was in a state of freeze for a while, until it saw its father, it came back to its senses.

"Daddy?"

Cheng Sitao responded softly.

"Yeah, Daddy's here."

Yu An had just had a nightmare and couldn't fall asleep, so he simply grabbed his father's hand and spoke in a low voice.

From the villainous national teacher leading troops to search, to the whole family being thrown into jail.

"There are rats and bugs in the prison."

Hearing the childish words in his ears, Cheng Sitao felt a lump in his throat.

"Yuan must be terrified, right?"

"No."

The little guy raised his chin proudly.

"Auntie chased the mice away, so Yu An is not afraid anymore."

"It's just, it's just..."

Yu An poked his finger and lowered his head embarrassedly.

"When he was sleeping, the bug almost got into Yu'an's ear, and Yu'an started crying."

The little guy stretched out his thumb and index finger, pinched them together, leaving a gap as small as the width of a hair.

"But only for a little while."

Cheng Sitao held the little guy tightly in his arms, and where Yu An couldn't see, he blinked hard to get rid of the moisture in his eyes.

"Well, Yu An is really brave."

Yu An grinned, took a sip of the water his father handed to him, and continued talking about his time in exile.

"The sun was so strong and the road was so hot. It was full of gravel and bumps. Yu An was tired and hot, and his feet were all blistered and bleeding."

"But Yu'an walked on his own and didn't let the elders carry him all the time."

As he spoke, the little guy became depressed.

"The officials were so fierce. They beat my aunt and grandmother. My great-grandmother fainted from exhaustion. When we went to look for medicine, we encountered a wild boar. Yu An kept running..."

Hearing this, Cheng Sitao clenched his fists tightly, with surging hatred brewing in his eyes.

Whipping?

Those people, how dare they?!

"Then Yu An met the Fairy Sister!"

At this point, the little guy smiled widely.

It is really his greatest luck to meet the fairy sister!
