When the people outside the courtyard saw Xiao Linghan standing in the inner room with the window opened, they all straightened their backs and said in unison:
"Pavilion Master!"
When the loud voices of the crowd reached the bamboo forest on one side, they startled the birds perched on the branches so much that they had to flap their wings and fly away.
Xiao Linghan stood in front of the window, looking at the people standing in the yard, and said, "Everyone go back."
Seeing the man ordering them to leave, the Dragon and Tiger Guards on the scene were about to speak up to persuade Xiao Linghan to remain as the Dragon and Tiger Pavilion's leader, but then they heard their leader say, "What? You won't listen to me?"
After hearing this, the expressions of the Dragon and Tiger Guards present changed from loneliness to joy.
The next second, many Dragon and Tiger Guards knelt down, and the deafening voice once again reached the bamboo forest: "Subordinates obey your command."
Xiao Linghan naturally didn't want to be the leader of the Dragon and Tiger Pavilion, but after hearing his sister's voice, he immediately changed his mind.
No one can take advantage of Shen Junze, who caused their family's heads to be hung on the city wall!
After the Dragon and Tiger Guards who had surrounded the yard left, Xiao Linghan finally came to his senses. When he was about to turn around and go back to the house, his eyes caught sight of his younger brother Fang Xuan.
Looking at the expression on Fang Xuan's face, he was after all a younger brother following behind him and was very familiar with him. As soon as he saw the expression on his face, he knew what he wanted to ask him.
"What do you want to ask? Ask it now?" Xiao Linghan said.
Normally, his younger brother Fang Xuan was very casual, but after what happened in the Dragon and Tiger Pavilion hall, he saw his loyalty clearly.
Fang Xuan swallowed his saliva and said nervously, "Brother, you asked me to ask this, didn't you? Then I'll really ask it!"
The younger brother Fang Xuan rubbed his hands and asked in a low voice, "Brother, you said earlier that you were from the imperial court. Could it be that you are really the illegitimate child of an official who has been living abroad?"
After Fang Xuan asked this question, he noticed that the man's face immediately darkened, and he was so scared that he quickly said:
"Yes... we brothers made a bet earlier." Fang Xuan quickly held up his five fingers and said distressedly, "It's a full fifty taels of silver! I bet you must be the illegitimate child of some official who's been living abroad!"
Xiao Linghan: “…”
Wanwan: [Ah ha? The prince who was exposed outside was tragically turned into a bastard. I’m the laughing rat.]
You guys are really brave enough to gamble!
Xiao Linghan: "What did you bet on?"
"Me?" Fang Xuan immediately said, "Of course I'm different from them. How could I not know who my eldest brother is? From the first moment I saw you, I could tell you had an extraordinary temperament. You were obviously from a wealthy family. How could you be someone's illegitimate child?
If I were to ask you, Big Brother, you must be the son of a powerful family. Dissatisfied with your family's money-making habits, you ran away from home, made your own living, and ventured into the world. Am I right?"
As soon as Fang Xuan finished speaking, the three eyes present all looked at him.
Wanwan took a bite of the pancake in her hand: [Good fellow, even fortune-telling is not as accurate as you]
Xiao Moqing: "Xiu'er, your calculations are quite accurate."
"My guess... is it correct?" Fang Xuan asked with some trepidation in his heart.
Xiao Linghan didn't answer, but Xiao Moqing beside him answered for him: "You guessed right, absolutely right."
Fang Xuan's eyes lit up. "Really? I was saying that our eldest brother has this kind of aura. He must be a noble young man from such a powerful family. He has such an extraordinary bearing."
Although Fang Xuan guessed correctly that Xiao Linghan was a nobleman from a powerful family, Xiao Linghan did not tell him his true identity, the Seventh Prince.
"These brothers are quite loyal to you. Do you really want to hide your identity as a prince from them?" Xiao Moqing asked, sitting on a chair and looking at the brothers surrounding the little boy not far away.
Xiao Linghan shook his head and said, "I've already said that once I'm out, I have to be self-reliant. The status of a prince is just a shackle to me, not an honor. And, second brother, didn't you see? I have the title of Dragon Tiger Pavilion Master again, right?"
Xiao Moqing looked at the smile on his seventh brother's face and couldn't help but chuckle. He rubbed his head and said helplessly, "You kid."
Compared to the leisure time of the two of them, Wanwan's side seems much busier.
Xiao Linghan's group of younger brothers surrounded the little girl and couldn't help but ask, "Sister, are there really ghosts in this world?"
"Did Yuan Tu really see a ghost in the hall earlier, and that's why he was so scared?"
"Sister, I've heard of the reputation of your awesome team, Jennyma. Are you really an immortal? Can you help me summon my deceased mother? I want to talk to her."
"And me, my sister... Oh no, Immortal, when I was five years old, my sister was abducted by human traffickers. Can you help me find clues about my sister's current situation?"
"My brother..."
…
A group of people were chattering in her ears. Wanwan was stunned as she listened to them chattering in her ears.
Wanwan: [Oh my god, it’s true that I can see Guigui with the script in hand, but that doesn’t mean I really know everything.]
"sister……"
Just as everyone was about to speak, they suddenly heard the sound of a sword being unsheathed, which made their hearts tighten.
Looking in the direction of the voice, they saw the tall man in black who had been standing beside them at some point. He had an ordinary appearance, but his eyes inexplicably made people shiver.
The people surrounding the little kid were so frightened that they took a few steps back.
"Fugui?" Wanwan looked at Fugui who suddenly stood beside her, with a hint of confusion in her big eyes.
Fugui: "The grilled fish is ready."
Grilled fish!!!
At the mention of grilled fish, Xiao Wanwan's eyes lit up, and she suddenly stood up from her chair and muttered, "I want to eat grilled fish."
Hearing this, Fugui squatted down and picked up the little baby with one hand with extremely skillful movements.
"Grilled fish?" Xiao Moqing, who heard the voice nearby, raised his head. "What grilled fish? Where is it?"
Perhaps it was because of the strong sense of oppression from Fugui, when he carried Xiao Wanwan to eat fish, the people who had originally surrounded the little kid and asked him questions didn't even dare to breathe.
Wanwan was thinking about the grilled fish all the time. Just when she had eaten half of it, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the gate of the yard.
"Excuse me, is Master Lin Hanlin here?"
Hearing this, the people who were eating grilled fish in the yard turned their eyes towards the door. Looking at the man standing at the door, they recognized at a glance that he seemed to be a servant of the Jiang Mansion.
