Time Travel: My Lord, Your Missing Fiancee Is Back

Chapter 23 Qi Ze's past is revealed

Shen Qi looked at Yu Yaqin with a distorted face and immediately disappeared, pretending that he had never appeared.

"Shen Qi!"

Shen Qi paused, turned around, and said with a flattering smile: "It's Sister Yu, what's the matter?"

Yu Yaqin held her head high, looking angry and looking down on the world: "Didn't you say that there are many king-level monsters in that forest, and that the little fat guy would definitely die if he was left alone? What's going on now?"

Shen Qi looked at his nose and then at his heart. "Maybe, stupid people have good fortune. The fat boy looks honest and kind..."

"You fucking fart!"

Shen Qi's eyes flickered slightly, and she reminded him seriously: "Sister Yu, we ladies are not allowed to swear. The master doesn't like it."

Yu Yaqin's angry, twisted face suddenly froze in embarrassment. She pointed at Shen Qi and spoke after a long while: "You, follow A Xuan and find a way to kill that little fat guy for me."

Shen Qi took a few steps back and said in surprise and confusion, "Isn't this bad?"

"What's wrong with that? I can't watch Ah Xuan go further and further down the path of extinction." Yu Yaqin's face twisted again, "If you can't do it, or if you pretend to obey but actually disobey, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Shen Qi was puzzled and frightened.

Did he accidentally fall into Yu Yaqin's trap at some point?

Why do I feel like my life is in her hands?

Shen Hongxuan glanced at the late Shen Qi and said, "Let's go."

Anyang City.

"It hasn't rained for a month. The crops in the fields are almost dried up, and we can't even plant in the fields..."

"Some old wells that haven't been dry for decades have run dry. If it doesn't rain, I'm afraid..."

"The land is suffering, and so are the people. The wind is not blowing and the rain is not falling. I think many people will go hungry this year. The governor insisted on waiting until the lake banquet to divert water to irrigate the canal.

After the lake banquet, the Grain in Ear Festival has passed, what to plant? Planting a show. I think the officials don’t hope for the well-being of the people, but still hope for promotion and wealth. I think…”

"Say less. If those people hear us, we'll get beaten again."

"That's right. Now that the Grain in Ear has passed, what's the point of saying that? The dignitaries have seen that the water level of Jingyu Lake has dropped by one or two meters this year, affecting their interest in sightseeing. They are still thinking of diverting the Jingjiang River upstream. How can they see the suffering of the common people..."

Next door, Jiang Heng and Qi Ze, who had "put aside their past grievances" and made peace, looked at each other in bewilderment. Wen Sui could only try to pretend that he didn't exist.

Jiang Heng: "The sound insulation isn't very good."

Qi Ze couldn't figure out Jiang Heng's attitude, but he was the one who sent out the invitation letter, so whether the neighbor had a purpose or not still needed to be confirmed.

"If you don't want to listen, I..." You can set up an isolation barrier...

"No need. I think it's quite down-to-earth." Jiang Heng took a sip of tea and picked up the river shrimp that Qi Ze had peeled and deveined. "I'm always in the mountains and forests, and I almost forgot that I'm also a human being."

Qi Ze: “…” Then why do you still recognize a bird as your father?

Wen Sui: “…”

"By the way, big brother, at what stage of cultivation can we survive without eating?"

Qi Ze: "After reaching the King Realm, you can probably go without food for a long time. However, it is not good for your health, nor for continuing to practice. Your flesh and blood will dry up, and your hair and teeth will fall off."

Isn't that similar to the half-step saint of the Wang family? Even a withered old man like Grom wants to take a concubine...

"That means, even if you reach the Saint Realm, you still need to eat, right?"

Qi Ze nodded, "As you practice more, you will eat food that is rich in spiritual energy. If the food itself lacks spiritual energy, you can add spiritual stones and cook it into a thick soup. Just like this pot of wild abalone soup."

Jiang Heng took a bite and found it fresh, fragrant and rich, a bit like the soup stock he used to eat in hotels. He immediately scooped half a bowl of it and mixed it with rice.

"We are eating coarse food here, but they are eating delicacies such as abalone! What the hell is the gap between the rich and the poor!" The sound of chopsticks being thrown came from the other side.

"If you want to eat, go over there! As long as you are thick-skinned enough, you can have it." Then he lowered his voice and said, "Do you think that voice sounds a bit like Qi Siye?"

The others nodded frantically, "Yes, yes. I think so too."

Wen Sui seemed to be thinking about something and glanced at Qi Ze, who signaled him to be patient.

"I heard that Master Liu really likes him and even confessed his love to him in public. Is that true?"

"Your news is from eight hundred years ago. I confessed my love, but Qi Siye didn't reject her in public out of consideration for Master Liu's face. He rejected her in private.

The next day, Master Liu made a big fuss, saying that Qi Siye was her man, and told other women to stay away from him. When they really saw Qi Siye, they were like cats seeing a mouse, not daring to fart..."

"Hey, I've heard of this. It seems that those female teachers had several fights over this. Qi Siye even encountered this once. It's a pity that Qi Siye turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside the window and knew nothing about it. He was fooled by Master Liu."

"It's impossible that he knows nothing. I think Qi Siye is thin-skinned and a good man. He wants to give Master Liu a chance to reform, so he pretends to know nothing. Otherwise, it would be disgraceful for the two families to quarrel."

Although the discussions next door were deliberately kept in a low voice, Qi Ze could still hear it clearly. He was so embarrassed that the tips of his ears turned red. Seeing that Jiang Heng was still concentrating on eating, as if he didn't hear anything, he felt a little relieved.

Wen Sui felt a little lost.

I thought my son had changed for the better, but I didn't expect he was still a cowardly and uncontested person.

The people next door were arranging him so loudly, but he didn't react at all. He was a little nervous, or because he was afraid that the little fat boy would hear it.

"Those were things that happened a long time ago. Have you heard about what happened this time?" Someone else quietly came forward and spoke in an even lower voice.

"You mean Master Liu went to arrest someone aggressively, but ended up leaving the place empty..."

"Yes, yes. It was the day before yesterday, or the day before yesterday? I heard that when Master Liu went to report on his study tour, he put something in the tea when he poured it for Qi Siye. After Qi Siye drank it, he realized something was wrong and ran away. Master Liu led his men to chase him..."

"Did you catch up? Is the matter settled?"

"How would I know if he has been caught up? Why don't you go to the next door and see if that person is Qi Siye? And is the other person Master Liu?"

The rest of them all leaned back, looking as if they were trying to avoid it, and shook their heads in unison, as if they had been trained.

After a while, someone suggested, "Then let's leave later," pointing to the next door, "Listen carefully, and once they leave, we'll leave too, we'll always run into them..."

The others nodded frantically, their eyes shining like stars in the sky.

"What if they got out of the window?"

"How about I go downstairs first and find a position to guard across the street?"
