The Prince Consort's Beloved

Chapter 21 Why Walk Like a Duck

The next day, Li Yuanrou went to the Princess's Mansion.

At the door, she met Li Youan who had just returned from outside, with Chengfeng following behind him from a distance.

Li Youan asked her in confusion: "Huh? Li Yuanrou, why do you want to walk like a duck?"

Li Yuanrou chased after him and was about to hit him: "You little bastard, you have no respect for your parents!" However, she was not feeling well and could not chase after him, so she finally gave up.

Li Youan walked backwards in front of her, asking as he walked, "Why didn't your uncle come with you?"

Li Yuanrou said unhappily: "Why did he come with me?"

Li Youan told the truth: "Luo Xing said that wherever you are, he is also there, and that you two are conjoined twins. What are conjoined twins?"

Li Yuanrou rolled her eyes at him and asked, "Where's your mother?"

Li Youan: "She should be in Frost Garden. I'll go with you to find her."

When the two arrived at Frost Garden, they heard someone talking in the house, and the voice sounded extremely familiar.

Li Youan turned around and glared at Chengfeng behind him. No wonder Chengfeng insisted on taking him out. It turned out that they had teamed up to deceive him.

Li Youan pretended to open his mouth and shout to rush in, but Li Yuanrou covered his mouth and pulled him back. The two of them eavesdropped outside the door.

A calm female voice sounded: "Going to war again?"

A deep voice replied, "Yeah."

"A Zheng, come back alive."

"it is good."

Li Youan broke free, kicked the door open and rushed in, just in time to see He Wenzheng holding the eldest princess in his arms.

Li Youan pushed He Wenzheng with both hands and said angrily, "How dare you, you lecher, to molest my mother."

He Wenzheng and the eldest princess were both stunned.

The eldest princess was the first to react: "An'er, don't be rude."

Li Youan became even angrier after hearing this: "Mother, you are protecting him? Have you been deceived by him? He is not a good person!"

Li Youan turned around and glared at He Wenzheng with a resentful look: "You bad guy, you want to harm my mother again, you'd better die on the battlefield and never come back."

The eldest princess was furious and slapped Li Youan's little face. Five finger marks immediately appeared on little Youan's face.

He Wenzheng and Li Yuanrou were both shocked.

He Wenzheng hurried over, squatted down, supported Li Youan's shoulders, looked at the wound on his face, and then looked up at the eldest princess.

He frowned and said, "Yuan Tao, you shouldn't hit him."

Li Youan pushed He Wenzhen hard, and He Wenzhen lost his balance and sat on the ground.

Li Youan's face was filled with anger, tears welled up in his eyes. He stared at He Wenzheng angrily and said angrily, "Don't be so hypocritical."

After he said that, he wiped his tears and ran out.

Li Yuanrou looked at the two people in the room and said with a dull look: "You..."

She first looked at her elder sister, then turned to look at He Wenzheng: "Could it be that An'er's biological father is..."

The eldest princess' eyes were red, and she said hurriedly: "Don't ask for now, go after him."

Li Youan ran out of the house crying. The princess called the secret guards to chase him. She, Li Yuanrou and He Wenzhen also chased after him.

However, women run slowly to begin with, and the two princesses had never run before. Li Yuanrou, in particular, felt such severe pain as if her thigh was torn apart that she was running for her life.

The snowy road was too slippery, and the princess lost her balance and fell forward. He Wenzheng came over in time to catch her, holding her in his arms and anxiously asked, "Yuan Tao, are you okay?"

The princess asked He Wenzheng to chase An'er first, but He Wenzheng refused: "No, the secret guard has already gone and he will probably be fine. I can't leave you here alone."

Li Yuanrou looked at the two of them speechlessly, thinking that she was not a human being.

When the three men caught up, they were shocked again. Li Youan was held hostage by a masked man, with a knife at his neck. He held back his tears and fear and said nothing.

Forced by the situation, more than a dozen leaders did not dare to act rashly.

The two masked men began to talk: "What should we do? Should we silence them?"

Another masked man said, "No, the orders say we must capture them alive. Besides, there are so many of them, if they kill us we will surely die."

The man asked again: "What should we do now? It's hard to escape if we don't kill him."

Another person said: "I haven't thought about it yet. The current situation is extremely unfavorable for both of us."

Li Yuanrou's mouth twitched when he saw this. With this IQ, can he be a killer?

Aren't killers generally silent? Don't you know that villains die because they talk too much?

She immediately said, "Hey, you two are just chatting here."

The two killers' attention was drawn to Li Yuanrou.

At this moment, Luoxing shot out a plum blossom dart.

She specializes in hidden weapons and rarely fails.

The plum blossom dart hit the heart of the masked man who was holding Li Youan hostage.

He Wenzhen quickly rushed forward and took Li Youan back.

Before he landed on the ground, he groaned as another man in black stabbed him in the back.

He endured the severe pain and held Li Youan in his arms and brought him to a safe place. Li Youan was still in shock and had not yet recovered.

Over there, Chengfeng Luoxing and others had easily killed the other killer.

The eldest princess' face was already covered with tears. She hugged Li Youan tightly, put her hands on his head and stroked his face, and burst into tears.

When they returned to the Princess's Mansion, everyone tacitly kept silent, and Chengfeng Luoxing and others waited outside the door.

The eldest princess helped He Wenzhen sit down. There were five fingerprints on Li Youan's stubborn little face, but he knew who had just saved him at the risk of his life, so he stopped saying bad things.

The eldest princess asked He Wenzheng to take off his shirt and applied medicine to him.

He Wenzheng looked at Li Yuanrou and Li Youan standing beside him. Li Yuanrou tactfully took Li Youan away.

After closing the door, she saw Luo Xing twisting his body and leaning against the door frame. Li Yuanrou looked at him and said, "I didn't expect that you, a sissy, are so powerful."

Luo Xing raised her eyes seductively: "The princess has not experienced how powerful I am, why not let me serve the princess once and see who is more powerful between me and the princess' husband."

Li Yuanrou suddenly got goose bumps all over his body. He grinned, rubbed his arms with his hands, and made "eh eh eh" sounds, then quickly pulled Li Youan away.

Li Yuanrou took Li Youan to the corridor and asked him carefully: "An'er, are you okay?"

Li Youan nodded and then shook his head.

Li Yuanrou caressed his face tenderly and said, "Go back to your yard. I'll apply some medicine on you."

Li Youan took a step back and avoided her hand: "I want to be alone for a while."

After he said that, he turned and left.

Even though he is very young, he can see some things clearly today.

For example, all the men in the mansion are skilled in martial arts, and his mother has an unusual relationship with He Wenzhen.

Now that he thought about it carefully, although there were many lovers in the mansion, he had never seen his mother having any intimate behavior with anyone. But his mother was different with He Wenzhen. He had some thoughts in his mind, but he didn't dare to ask whether he was He Wenzhen's son.

Li Yuanrou chased after him for a few steps. Li Youan stopped and did not look back. He said in a hoarse voice, "Don't follow me."

He said this and walked away.

Li Yuanrou stood there, with a thousand thoughts in her mind. Her eldest sister was applying medicine to He Wenzhen in the main courtyard, and it would not be appropriate for her to go there, as she was just a light bulb now. She called the servants in the mansion, left a message, and went to the front yard to look for Daya, the coachman and others.

At this time in the Changsheng Palace, Li Yuanqi glared at the kneeling commander of the Imperial Guard and smashed the cup in anger.

Li Yuanrou returned to her princess mansion and locked herself in the room, pacing back and forth until Xiao Luobai came back.

When Xiao Luobai entered the room, he saw Li Yuanrou circling around the eight-immortals table in a trance.

He went over, took her arm and sat her down, and asked, "Does it hurt anymore?"

Li Yuanrou glared at him, told him everything that happened today, and asked her own guess: "I seriously suspect that He Wenzheng is An'er's biological father."

Xiao Luobai lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Li Yuanrou said to herself, "I have never seen my elder sister so close to any man. Even her concubines have never done anything too intimate. It's mostly rumors outside, and no one has seen it with their own eyes. Moreover, all the concubines today are very skilled in martial arts, and they don't look like concubines at all. But it doesn't make sense. If He Wenzheng is An'er's father, then why didn't he marry my elder sister? Why did my elder sister hide it? Could it be that He Wenzheng couldn't bear to give up his title of general and was unwilling to take off his armor to become my elder sister's consort? It doesn't seem likely..."

She talked for a long time, but Xiao Luobai didn't say anything.

She looked at him suspiciously, then suddenly stood up and pointed at him in horror: "You, you, you, did you know this a long time ago?"

Xiao Luobai looked at her guiltily.

Li Yuanrou sat down and slammed the table angrily: "Tell the truth now, or you can't sleep on my bed tonight, go back to your Qingzhu Garden!"
