Chapter 041 Jin丨Jiang Wenxue Exclusive Release (4000 Nutrient Solution Plus)

Xie Heng's antidote was delivered a day late. Because of the limited quantity, it was used on the crazy soldiers first.

These things have nothing to do with Pei Rui.

He hadn't had a good sleep for several days. After relaxing, he slept soundly.

He couldn't see at all. When he woke up, he completely lost his sense of time and was a little confused. It took him a while to remember that he was using a vest three times.

"Xiao Pei, you finally woke up!"

Pei Rui was stunned: "Lu Xiaofeng?"

Lu Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief: "It's me."

After hearing about the dangers of this march and knowing that someone in the army was poisoned and controlled by voice, he was worried about the safety of Pei Rui and others.

When the army returned to the camp, Lu Xiaofeng did not wait for Pei Rui to come back, but rushed over directly. Unexpectedly, the child was still sleeping. Lu Xiaofeng waited for a whole day, and now it was already night, and he finally woke up.

He was really afraid that Pei Rui was poisoned, and he was suspicious during the period. He asked the military doctor to come and treat Pei Rui, and even asked whether he should give him the antidote in advance. If Pei Rui was poisoned and controlled, none of them would survive!

The military doctor rejected his proposal and told Lu Xiaofeng that General Pei was just too tired and just needed to sleep.

Lu Xiaofeng was still worried and stayed by his side until now.

Pei Rui had no intention of getting up from the bed. He lay flat on his back with the quilt covering him, his hair disheveled, his eyes staring blankly at the top of the tent, ignoring the scar on his face, just like an ordinary teenager.

Lu Xiaofeng: "Are you hungry?"

Pei Rui moved: "Yes."

Lu Xiaofeng: "I'll go to the kitchen to get some food. Is there anything you want to eat? Your father ordered people to prepare a lot of things in advance, just waiting for you to wake up. You woke up at a really bad time, they should have fallen asleep."

He bit the words "your father" very hard.

Pei Rui still looked absent-minded: "I want to eat cheese sticks."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Cheese sticks? Are they cheese sticks? Where can I get you this so late at night? Eat something else first. If you want to eat it again tomorrow, I will go buy it for you myself!"

Xue Chen: [Really?]

System: [Are you sure it's not some kind of bird jerky?]

Xue Chen: [Jerky made from pelicans, how can it be called cheese? This is something I haven't seen before! It's really boring for the eldest son of the Taiping Palace like me to make this!]

System: [......]

Lu Xiaofeng didn't disturb others and heated up the dishes prepared in the kitchen and brought them over.

The pot of porridge was already very thick, giving off an alluring aroma. The dishes were also very fragrant, especially the pork with pickled plums. The flavor of the dried plums mixed with the aroma of the pork smelled very delicious.

Without Lu Xiaofeng's call, Pei Rui sat up from the bed and sat down at the table accurately, waiting for Lu Xiaofeng to put the food on the table.

Lu Xiaofeng: "I can see that you are really hungry."

He took out the food from the lunch box and put the chopsticks in Pei Rui's hand. Seeing him eating happily, he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Maybe it's because of his age?

This sentence suddenly popped up in Lu Xiaofeng's mind, and he looked at Pei Rui again. His hair was loose and not tied up. He only wore a white inner garment instead of his wide-sleeved black robe, which made him look much more childish than usual.

He wouldn't really treat Pei Rui as his son, right?

Lu Xiaofeng always thought that he was very young.

He sat opposite the boy: "You are really amazing. You have been away for only a few days, and you have a father when you come back."

Pei Rui stopped eating and raised his head. His mouth was bulging with food in it, and half of his face was bulging. He didn't speak, and his expression was very confused.

Lu Xiaofeng: "You know, don't you? The King

of Taiping has adopted you as his son?" Pei Rui swallowed his words and said, "I know."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Do you know what this means?"

Pei Rui shook his head.

Lu Xiaofeng: "The King of Taiping is extremely powerful. With him backing you up, anyone who sees you will be respectful and no one will dare to provoke you. Fang Yingkan arranged an assassination when the King of Taiping arrived. The primary purpose was to kill the King of Taiping. If the King of Taiping was not dead, he would actively rescue him and please him."

Pei Rui tilted his head and blinked slowly, as if he didn't understand.

Lu Xiaofeng: "The things he had arranged with great care were interrupted by your decisive killing. Not only that, you also took away his credit for saving the car. Now you have been adopted as the adopted son of King Taiping. If Fang Yingkan knew about this, he would hate you to the core."

Pei Rui took a sip of porridge and chewed it carefully.

Lu Xiaofeng: "I don't know the undercurrents in the court, but seeing how fiercely the Jinfengxiyulou and Liufenbantang fought, I know that the situation in the capital is not stable. After all, the King of Taiping is an ordinary person, he has friends and enemies. As the adopted son of the King of Taiping, you will definitely be in the sight of the court officials, so you must be careful to distinguish who are friends and who are enemies."

Pei Rui nodded: "I'm good at this."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "No one knows this better than me."

Pei Rui finished his meal, and Lu Xiaofeng cleared the dishes.

System: [He is so virtuous.]

Xue Chen: [Missed.]

System: [What's wrong? There are times when you can't calculate? 】

Xue Chen:【I shouldn’t have called him big brother when we first met. I should have called him uncle directly.】

System:【…It’s not too late to change your words now.】

Xue Chen:【It’s too late. I just recognized my father as my godfather. If I change my words again, he will really become my uncle.】

System:【What a roundabout way of speaking.】

Pei Rui was thinking about the epiphany he had never heard of. He found Lu Xiaofeng early the next morning and followed him without saying a word. Wherever Lu Xiaofeng went, he went. After

being followed for more than half an hour, Lu Xiaofeng finally figured out something was wrong: "Xiao Pei, you have nothing to do today?"

Pei Rui nodded.

Lu Xiaofeng: "I still have a lot of things to check. You following me like this is too conspicuous. Why don't you go back and take a rest first? I will come to find you after I finish what I am doing."

Pei Rui was obviously unwilling: "You promised me."

Lu Xiaofeng: "What did you promise?"

Xue Chen shouted: [I lied to him, that's what he deserves, he deserves it! Bah!]

System: [What a disgrace, you don't look like the eldest son of the Taiping Palace at all now.]

Xue Chen shouted: [I don't care, I don't care, I don't care! If I can't eat delicious food, I won't be the eldest son!]

System: [...You are so noisy.

Pei Rui pursed his lips: "Daigo Stick." Lu

Xiaofeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So that's why you want it. Let's go! I'll take you to buy some now. You can buy as much as you want. I've received a lot of bonuses from your godfather recently. Your godfather is very generous. It's enough for the two of us to eat for a long time."

He found a snack shop on the street, went in to ask, and confirmed that they sold Daigo Stick. He bought a big bag for Pei Rui and let him pick some other ones. Pei

Rui acted very unfamiliar with these things. Even if Lu Xiaofeng told him the names of the snacks, he didn't know what they were.

Lu Xiaofeng thought to himself that this boy had indeed lived a miserable life in the past and had never eaten anything good.

He selected many kinds of food for Pei Rui, and ordered a little bit of each flavor. It took only a quarter of an hour to buy and leave the snack shop.

Lu Xiaofeng: "Shall I take you home?"

Pei Rui was full of delicious food: "I can go back by myself."

Lu Xiaofeng was a little worried: "Do you know the way?"

The boy nodded.

Lu Xiaofeng handed all the things to him, and reminded him to be careful on the road. If he couldn't find the way, he should ask someone, ask a few more people, and don't be cheated.

Pei Rui nodded.

System: [He really cares more about you than your father. Of course, this is a compliment.]

Xue Chen: [The one who manages the meals is a good person!]

System: [That's not what you said just now. 】

Xue Chen: [He didn't intend to take care of me just now, but now he does, even though he's squandering my father's money... Why does my father only give money to Lu Xiaofeng and not to me? 】

System: [Maybe it's because you're a formal employee and get paid monthly, while Lu Xiaofeng is a private employee and gets paid daily? 】

Xue Chen: [Alas, I don't have any money at all, I feel so insecure. 】

System: [...]

With your fighting power, you have no money, so it should be others who feel insecure, right?

Pei Rui happily opened a bag of snacks, fumbled to put it in his mouth, and ate while walking, enjoying it very much.

The Daigo stick was very different from the cheese stick Pei Rui imagined. This one was more like a puff pastry made of butter. The one Lu Xiaofeng bought seemed to be made with cheese, and had a strong milky flavor, but it was still a dessert made of flour, but it was not very sweet.

Because Prince Taiping was still living in the army and did not move back to the government office, Pei Rui did not move there either.

He left the city and came to the military camp, carrying snacks and went directly to Prince Taiping's residence.

Prince Taiping seemed to be reading something. When he heard someone come in casually, he looked over unhappily. After finding out it was Pei Rui, he said helplessly: "Rui'er, why didn't you knock on the door?"

Pei Rui thought for a moment: "I will do it next time."

He closed the paper: "What did you bring?"

Pei Rui came to the table, holding the snacks with his arm, reached out and touched the table, made sure there was nothing, and put the snacks on it: "Lu Xiaofeng gave it to me."

He sat down, opened a package, and pushed it in front of Prince Taiping: "You eat it."

Xue Chen: [My father's food is too bad, and I have to rely on him to improve his living conditions.]

System: [If, I mean if, if your father ate the snacks given by Xiaomian and thought they tasted good, but didn't mean to bring some back to the original body in the palace, would you be angry? 】

Xue Chen: [Yes! ]

System: [Why can't you just say you want to eat? He will definitely satisfy you. ]

Xue Chen: [That would ruin his character. ]

System: [……]

The King of Taiping is probably finished. Even if it's not over this time, it will be over sooner or later.

This host is really scary. The vest Xie Heng drinks a lot every day, and the vest Xiaomian is now eating without restraint.

As for his original body, he must maintain his character and not collapse.

It has brought so many hosts, but this is the first time it has encountered such a host.

The King of Taiping actually doesn't like sweets very much. He has been in the army all year round and eats the same food as the soldiers. Even when he returns to the palace, he eats whatever the kitchen prepares. The

eldest son has been weak since childhood. He is not as healthy as the youngest son, and his appetite is small. The young kitchen's mind is all on him.

Xue Chen had to take a lot of medicine every time he was sick, and he had to avoid certain foods every day, and his diet was quite light.

From then on, the diet in the mansion was set, and it was never changed. Even the banquets in the mansion were mainly based on expensive medicinal food.

King Taiping never thought that his eldest son's taste would change, and he would become the young man in front of him, bringing snacks to cheat him.

Pei Rui was separated from his family since he was a child, lonely and helpless, and he couldn't see them, which was quite pitiful.

Being treated wholeheartedly by this child, the King of Taiping could not bear to let him down. Besides, it was not a big deal, so he took a piece of snack and tasted it under the boy's expectant expression: "Not bad."

Pei Rui's expression eased a little: "There are also these, all different."

King of Taiping: "Really? Then I'll try them."

He tasted them one by one, felt a little sick, and took a sip of the tea beside him.

Pei Rui: "Which one do you like?"

System: [Do you have to do this...]

Xue Chen said righteously: [I didn't do anything excessive.]

King of Taiping picked one that was not too sweet.

Pei Rui said excitedly, "Me too."

"Yeah." Seeing him so lively, King Taiping felt that his efforts to coax him were not in vain, and he felt very happy. He picked up the paper on the table and said to Pei Rui, "Chen'er wrote a letter to express his concern and regards. How do you think I should reply to him?"

Xue Chen: [I'm not writing to Li Lei and Han Meimei, is there any need to be so entangled?]

System: [After all, he suddenly has a son. You are so old, and you have a new brother. He must be worried that you can't accept it.]

Xue Chen: [You don't understand. This era emphasizes a clear class distinction. Under the patriarchal system, the father has absolute control over the son. Let alone his adoption of a son, even if he marries a wife, I have no right to ask.]

System: [You have integrated well.]

Xue Chen: [I am erudite!]

The system has discovered that Xue Chen's intelligence is proportional to his stubbornness. Whether it is Gong Jiu or King Taiping, he cares very much in his heart, but he still has to pretend that he doesn't care.

If it hadn't been more careful and didn't say bad things about King Taiping, it would have been locked up in a small dark room now!

It's reasonable to suspect that his stubbornness is just to pit the system!

Seeing that Pei Rui didn't answer, King Taiping read the letter again, stroking the letter paper, with deep love in his eyes.

Through the elegant handwriting, he could imagine Xue Chen writing at his desk.

King Taiping said, "I seem to have never mentioned that I have a pair of sons, twin brothers from the same mother, and they look exactly the same. The elder brother, Xue Chen, is gentle and refined, a dignified gentleman. The younger brother, Xue Lian, is calm and sharp, and as taciturn as you. They are both twenty-three years old now, and you should call them brothers."

Pei Rui: "..."

Pei Rui's expressions are always very subtle. If you don't pay attention, it is difficult to observe his emotional changes.

Prince Taiping's attention was focused on the letter in his hand. He continued, "This time, it was your eldest brother who wrote to you. In the letter, he recounted what happened at home these days. Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and many people came to visit the house. He has been busy for some days, and has only recently become free. He has been weak since he was a child, and he is getting colder today. I wonder if he has put on more clothes. Don't get sick."

Pei Rui's expression eased a little.

System: [Your father has you in his heart!]

Xue Chen: [After all, you are his biological child.]

System: [So he didn't remember to send you delicious food. I guess he really forgot.]

Xue Chen: [Hmm... Let me think about how to refute...]

System: [???] I suspect that you did this on purpose just to find an opportunity to scold me.

Xue Chen said solemnly: [Under the patriarchal system, the father is the subject, and everyone else is his vassal, whether it is his wife or his children, they are all tools for him to perform his fatherly duties.]

The system admits defeat: […whatever you say is what it is, I can’t argue with you.]

King Taiping: “Your eldest brother is a very easy-going person. If he knew he had a younger brother like you, he would definitely be very happy.

“As for your second brother…he looks indifferent, but in fact, he is the softest-hearted person like you. When you first meet him, you should be more tolerant, and it will be fine after you get familiar with him. Ren’er is the most protective of his shortcomings. With his help, you will not be bullied.

Pei Rui: "..." Seeing

that he had not spoken for a long time, King Taiping thought that the lonely boy was not used to having two brothers, so he did not urge him.

He picked up the pen, pondered for a moment, and wrote. In the letter, he replied that he was fine recently, and then he was concerned about the health of his eldest son.

After all the greetings were written, King Taiping did not know how to phrase it, so he told his eldest son that he had found a new brother for him outside.
