Chapter 167 It turns out he is the male protagonist
Old Master Gu took a deep breath. "That's unknown. In fact, I couldn't figure it out at first. Concubine Rong has no children. Unlike other concubines who fought for sons, it doesn't make sense that she would try to win over Li Yuan, or even our family. So, at first, even if I heard rumors, I didn't think it was possible."
Li Mumu rolled her eyes, "Will Concubine Rong have a son?"
"Impossible!" Zhang Yi said softly.
"When Concubine Rong gave birth to the little princess, she was schemed against by Concubine Yu, which damaged her foundation. This is something everyone knows."
Everyone nodded, because it was a big commotion at the time. After Concubine Yu was caught, she was directly executed, and her father and brother were also implicated.
"No matter what Concubine Rong's purpose is, we must be on guard."
Li Mumu didn't hint any further, thinking of finding another opportunity to talk about it.
In fact, if you calculate it, the male protagonist should also appear in the north by this time. I wonder if he will be rescued by the female protagonist like in the movie.
There is no specific description of the date, only that it was less than a month since he had been in exile, it was not yet New Year's Eve, and it was market day.
Actually, it’s only been a few days.
After being reminded by everyone, Gu Mingjing became even more unfriendly towards Shi Aoxue. He saw her as if she were a plague god and wanted to stay away from her.
Seeing this, Shi Aoxue became even more anxious, so she went to see Li Yuan.
The Li family, on the other hand, lives a comfortable life, unlike those in the village. Thanks to the family, the whole family comes to buy things.
This time, Old Lady Li brought Zhao to buy things to apologize to Chen Wang. Only by dealing with Chen Wang could they live a good life in Qingshui Village.
If she had to pay compensation to each household, she couldn't afford it and didn't want to.
The town is not big, and there is only one busy street, so as long as they walk around, they can see the stall set up by Song Qiang, Gu Yuru and the little girl.
However, they didn't recognize that it was someone they knew, they were just attracted by the smell and the long line.
"Mom, what are you selling? Why does it smell so good?" Zhao hugged Li Zhaozhao, her saliva almost flowing out.
"You're so greedy." Old Mrs. Li didn't say a single nice word, but she always treated her daughter-in-law like that. But she had to admit that the taste was indeed delicious, and she wanted to eat it too.
After saying that, she glared at Zhao and said, "Hurry up and leave. There is no money at home."
Zhao actually had a few copper coins in her arms, but only she knew where they came from, and she didn't dare to say it.
However, while Mrs. Li was looking around the shop, Zhao saw her aunt and sister-in-law busy at work.
"Mother...Mother...please look!"
"Look at that shit. I told you I wouldn't eat. You can't do anything right. You can never get enough of eating."
"No, you see, it's someone from the Gu family."
Old Mrs. Li impatiently shook off her arm, and saw Song Qiang and Gu Yuru out of the corner of her eye. Li Mumu had a cloth bag hanging on her chest, which looked heavy, and she was putting copper coins into it.
"Hmph, no wonder the Gu family has fallen into such a state." Old Mrs. Li curled her lips, but she was quite happy in her heart.
Zhao licked her cracked lips, and at this moment, Li Zhaozhao in her arms started crying.
Her heart-wrenching cry attracted the attention of people around, and Li Mumu also saw it.
"Cry, cry, cry, what are you crying for?" Old Lady Li said angrily, "You are a jinx, you only know how to cry. If you cry again, I will throw you away."
But Li Zhaozhao is so young, how could she understand what Old Lady Li said?
And when she shouted, Li Zhaozhao cried even harder.
Li Mumu cried when she thought of Li Zhaozhao. Lin Siyan, who did not die in the book, felt heartbroken. At this moment, the male protagonist appeared and was hit by a carriage. Li Yuan stopped the carriage and let him escape, but he fell into a coma. However, Li Zhaozhao suddenly stopped crying after seeing him.
Could it be that... the male protagonist is nearby?
Li Mumu looked around and actually saw a familiar face.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way! The horse is frightened! Get out of the way! Ah!"
Li Mumu's eyes widened. Could it be...
Before she had time to think about it, Gu Yuru, who heard the noise, rushed towards her.
After making sure her daughter was not in danger, Gu Yuru looked at the carriage that was rushing towards the crowd like crazy and was about to reach them.
Without thinking, she jumped up. Amid everyone's exclamations, she rode on the horse, clamped her legs around the horse's belly, and pulled the reins. However, the horse was in a manic state and tried several times to shake off the person.
"Mumu, get out of the way!" Gu Yuru shouted loudly, but she was also thrown to the side by the horse.
"Sister, be careful." Song Qiang didn't care that there was something else in the pot, and looked at Gu Yuru anxiously.
Li Mumu was also worried about her mother. She had no weapons in her hands and ran like crazy, smashing the stalls along the way into a mess.
Seeing that Gu Yuru was about to be thrown off again, Li Mumu quickly took out the anesthetic needle from the space. Because she had learned some martial arts from her uncles, she no longer needed the assistance of a small bow and arrow. She just swung it lightly and stabbed the horse's leg.
"Mom, be careful!" Li Mumu warned loudly, "He's going to fall."
Sure enough, the next anesthetic injection took effect. The horse's front legs lost sensation and fell forward, and the carriage behind it also rushed towards the horse due to inertia.
The people in the carriage shouted for help.
Gu Yuru frowned slightly. In a flash, she tried her best to stop the carriage from crashing into her, because there was a child in the carriage and she had just heard the child crying.
If thrown out, the child would be in danger.
Just after she was forced back a few steps by the inertia of the carriage, she suddenly felt as if there was a force helping her. When she looked again, it was her daughter.
"Mumu!" Gu Yuru breathed a sigh of relief, and the carriage slowly stopped.
Li Mumu also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her original body was very strong, otherwise the carriage would have overturned.
"Madam, Miss... Young Master, are you all okay?" The driver's voice trembled with fear, and his legs were shaking even more.
"Wow!"
A child's loud crying sound came from inside. Judging from the sound, the child should be fine, just frightened.
Gu Yuru gasped for breath and wiped the sweat from her head. Song Qiang also ran over, "Sister, Mumu, you guys really scared me to death just now."
Gu Yuru smiled at her and said, "Thanks to Mumu, otherwise I wouldn't be able to control this horse by myself."
Li Mumu smiled and shook her head, but she caught a glimpse of the young man walking towards her with a limp.
The last time they met, if it weren't for her mother, he would have fallen.
The young man bowed and said, "Thank you, Madam, for rescuing me."
Gu Yuru looked at the young man and smiled faintly, "You're welcome. It's just a small favor. Are you... okay?"
"No, I just bumped into you. Madam, don't you remember me?"
Gu Yuru looked at the young man and found that he looked familiar.
"My name is Rong Jinxuan. Madam helped me a few days ago. She's right in front of that shop!"
Li Mumu stared at the boy. He... was indeed the male protagonist.
