Chapter 262 Is it too early to kneel now?
As soon as Tian Laoer left, Liu Qingshan and the other two looked at each other and sighed together.
He raised his hand, patted Tian Shitou's shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Shitou, I have wronged you in the past."
"Brother Qingshan, what do you mean?"
"Nothing. It's not good for a child to know too much."
Tian Shitou said "Oh" honestly and didn't ask any more questions.
Song Yanxi saw this and couldn't help but sigh.
What the master said back then was indeed right. If you want to fool a child, you should do it early; it will be harder to fool the child when he grows up.
But seeing how honest this kid is, he can probably fool people for a few more years.
Afraid that she would mistakenly think they were bullying Tian Shitou, Liu Qingshan hurriedly took two steps forward and explained in a low voice, "My princess, you don't know, this kid has always been kind-hearted. He thinks even the stray dogs on the roadside look like good people.
There are so many things going on here, and it's hard to break it all down and explain it to him."
It would be fine if he had the time now, but in the army on weekdays, he is busy with training and dealing with his superiors. Who has the time to talk to him about this?
Selfishly speaking, those who have experienced it don't want him to understand the dangers of the world and the fickleness of human nature too early.
It is naturally a good thing that they have this intention.
only……
Song Yanxi glanced at Tian Shitou, who hadn't listened to them and had obediently returned to sit down. She seemed to have a feeling and said, "As expected, the older you get, the wiser you become."
Hearing this, Tian Shitou, who had his back to them, twitched his ears, clearly eavesdropping.
Song Yanxi couldn't help but curl her lips.
Who said this guy is stupid?
In her opinion, he is very smart.
There is no doubt about Mr. Liu's judgment of people.
Liu Qingshan was a little confused when he heard this, but when he followed her gaze, he immediately understood something.
He gritted his teeth and laughed angrily.
"This kid, instead of learning good things, learned to eavesdrop from others."
Before he could roll up his sleeves to settle the score with him, the sharp-eared Tian Shitou pulled back the quilt and slipped in swiftly.
A moment later, a pair of cloth shoes was thrown out.
Tian Shitou's voice came through the quilt, "Brother Qingshan, don't be angry, I didn't hear anything."
As soon as he said that, he realized something was wrong and let out an "Ouch" and wrapped the quilt tighter around him.
Liu Qingshan was at a loss for words and said shamefully, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Princess."
Song Yanxi carefully put the book away, looked at the quilt wrapped like a silkworm cocoon, and couldn't help but chuckled: "This child is rare and innocent, which may not be a bad thing.
If it were someone else, this booklet might not be kept."
I'm afraid that even if Lin Tingfeng's men racked their brains, they would never have thought that such an important thing would be hidden in a simple and honest child who looked like he couldn't even tell a lie.
Even if they are searched, it is usually done in a perfunctory manner.
Liu Qingshan scratched his head and chuckled, "My Lord, you're right, that's exactly what's going on."
As if he had thought of something, his face showed embarrassment and he opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.
Understanding his concerns, Song Yanxi spoke directly: "Shi Tou suddenly had a high fever. I'm here to treat him. It has nothing to do with anything else."
She paused and continued, "You just need to rest and recuperate. Leave the rest to me and the prince."
When Liu Qingshan heard this, his expression became excited for a moment and he was about to kneel down.
He said, "Your Excellency is so kind, we are truly unable to repay you. From now on, I will be at your service!"
Song Yanxi reached out to support him and said in a deep voice, "I should take care of your worries while you're working for me. This is what I should do. You don't need to take it to heart."
The other two were about to kneel down, but they stopped when they heard this.
They looked at each other and knelt down together.
One person said, "We are not ungrateful people. The princess risked her life to help us, so she deserves our respect."
Another person also said: "Those who died can no longer speak or move. It is up to us who can speak and move to speak and kneel for them."
Liu Qingshan said in a sorrowful voice, "I hope the princess will help us."
"You guys..." Song Yanxi was moved.
Before she could speak again, the faint voice of Doctor Liu came from behind her.
"Aren't you all saying that a man's knees are made of gold? Look at what you've become now!"
Liu Qingshan explained: "The teacher once said that as a human being, we should kneel to heaven above, parents below, and benefactors in between."
He asked in return, "The princess has a heart of justice and is willing to seek justice for our relatives. How can I not kneel for such a great favor?"
Doctor Liu raised an eyebrow and asked with a half-smile, "She only agreed with words and hasn't done anything yet. Isn't it too early for you to kneel now?"
Seeing that they hesitated for a moment, he struck while the iron was hot and said, "Besides, there's a plague spreading throughout the city, and she can't leave for a while. It's better to wait until she actually does something before thanking you."
Liu Qingshan immediately retorted: "Mr. Liu, this is wrong!"
Doctor Liu frowned, "Now you don't say we are related?"
Liu Qingshan's face flushed instantly, and after a long pause he managed to utter, "Let's put things in perspective. This isn't the same thing at all. Mr. Liu, please stop making fun of us."
"Who said I was joking?"
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other, unable to react.
Tian Shitou poked his head out from under the quilt and said angrily, "You're not right!"
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing is right!"
Tian Shitou's face flushed red. He felt that he was not very impressive when he was lying down, so he simply pushed away the quilt and sat up, saying seriously, "You are unreasonable."
Doctor Liu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Come on, speak louder. I can't hear you."
Liu Qingshan was about to cover Tian Shitou's mouth, but when he heard what he said, he became unhappy and said in a muffled voice, "What you said doesn't make sense in the first place. What Shitou said is also true."
Doctor Liu ignored him and instead looked at the other two, asking angrily, "Do you also think I'm wrong?"
The two were a little older and had more concerns, so they couldn't speak as freely as the young people, but they nodded in agreement.
Tian Laoer, who was guarding the curtain, nodded quickly upon seeing this.
Seeing this, Doctor Liu became even more furious. He flicked his sleeves and said, "Well, you've ignored everything I've said. If the princess doesn't succeed in the end, don't blame me for not warning you in advance, considering we've known each other."
Liu Qingshan exchanged glances with the others and immediately said, "Princess, please be at ease. It's enough for you to have this heart. No matter what the outcome is, we will accept it and will never blame you for a single word."
"That's right, if it weren't for the princess, we would still be worried about how we could see the prince!"
When Mo Jinchuan was mentioned, everyone's faces looked unhappy.
Tian Shitou couldn't hold back his words and asked anxiously, "Princess, can you tell us the truth? What happened to the prince?"
Liu Qingshan scolded: "Stone!"
"Brother Qingshan, don't you want to know?"
"I……"
Without waiting for Liu Qingshan to say anything, Tian Shitou said, "You dare not say it, but I will. Anyway, the princess won't beat me."
He looked at Song Yanxi with a burning gaze, "Princess, am I right?"
