044 Dou, I love you so much...

The matter of the secret guard will not affect the itinerary of the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen. Except that the secret guard Xiao Yi left midway, everything else remains the same. As for who is Xiu Ye's sweetheart?

The secret guards still didn't get the answer. Xiu Ye's mouth was tighter than a clam shell. The secret guards were too embarrassed to make fun of Chun Hui and the others. The matter was eventually left unresolved...

Of course, Feng Qingchen heard some rumors, and when he talked to the Ninth Uncle privately, he mentioned Xiu Ye's sweetheart: "I heard Mengbao say before that Chun Hui fell in love with a secret guard, and it must be Xiu Ye, but because of their status, Chun Hui and the secret guard didn't dare to say it."

The Ninth Prince didn’t care about these things, but when Feng Qingchen mentioned the cute baby, he became concerned.

"Cute baby? How old is she? How does she understand these things?" The Ninth Prince gritted his teeth. Who taught his daughter such bad things that she knows what to like and what to dislike at such a young age?

"Don't be so nervous." Feng Qingchen couldn't help but teasing, "You think Mengbao is a genius? How can she understand these things at such a young age? She just heard Chunhui and the others talking about it in private."

"These girls are getting bolder and bolder. They even dare to say such things in front of Mengbao." The Ninth Prince's displeasure immediately shifted to Chun Hui and the others. He was considering whether he should marry them all off.

Girls can't be kept when they grow up. Harue and the others are already 27 or 28 years old, so it's not a good idea for them to stay in the palace.

"They definitely won't say that in front of Mengbao, but you know... Mengbao is mischievous and likes to run around. Who knows where she heard it from." After more than ten years of getting along, Feng Qingchen knew how cautious Chunhui and the others were. They would never dare to say these things in front of the young master.

"Let someone investigate this later. I don't want this cute baby to learn bad things." The Ninth Prince was still unhappy, so Feng Qingchen had to go forward to coax him and make him understand that this cute baby wouldn't learn bad things so easily.

At this moment, Meng Bao, who was thrown back to Xuanyi Valley by the valley master's disciples and punished by Guo Baoji, was pulling Chi Lianshui's hand, asking him to plead for him.

"Grandpa Chi, I beg you... please talk to Grandpa Guo for me, I really didn't mean it. Wuuuu... these bugs are so scary, they all bit Mengbao." Mengbao sincerely felt that she must have had a grudge against bugs in her previous life, so there were so many bugs torturing her in this life.

So scary, so scary!

Grandpa Guo is much crueler than brother Naibao. Brother Naibao would at most give her some harmless bugs to pick up, but what about Grandpa Guo?

He actually gave her a whole plate of corpse worms to raise...

Corpse worms eat corpse oil, and corpse oil is only found in old coffins that have been dead for hundreds of years. Although she doesn't have to worry about corpse oil, these things are really scary.

The corpse worms were so small and dense, crowded together, it was really terrifying. She was scared to tears several times.

"Grandpa Chi, I'm almost having what my mother calls intensive phobia. Please, help me beg for mercy." Meng Bao pulled Chi Lianshui and kept acting coquettishly...

"Grandpa Chi, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please talk to my Grandpa Guo. I will never dare to do it again next time. Can I go find a more special poisonous weed for you? Please let me go, Grandpa Guo." Dad, Mom...where are you? Mengbao misses you so much.

Grandpa Guo is so mean, brother Ziluo and sister Anping are even worse, they don’t help Mengbao, Mengbao is so pitiful.

Chi Lianshui was also worried. Mengbao came to her and begged for mercy every day, but she didn't dare to go to Guo Baoji to plead for mercy.

"Mengbao, you know your Grandpa Guo's temper. If you had admitted your mistake and accepted the punishment instead of running away, your Grandpa Guo would have punished you by making you copy the Compendium of Materia Medica four or five hundred times at most. But you ran away in a hurry, and as a result, your Grandpa Guo was furious. How could your Grandpa Guo be happy if you were gone for three or five months?"

If Meng Bao wasn't so pitiful, Chi Lianshui would have wanted to punish Meng Bao: "You are such a heartless kid, do you know that if you run away, your Grandpa Guo won't be able to find the culprit, and we will all suffer."

He in particular was identified by Guo Baoji as Meng Bao's accomplice. For a period of time, even the water he drank could be poisonous. He was almost driven crazy by Guo Baoji.

"Mengbao, you are already very happy. You don't know how pitiful Ziluo and Anping are who helped you escape. These two were sleeping soundly, but beside them there was either a giant python or a rotting corpse. Your sister Anping was almost used by Grandpa Guo to grow herbs and raise poison."

Of course, the one who scared Mengbao later, Mengbao was too clingy, if he didn't scare her, Chi Lianshui was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on, and then he would be stupid enough to beg Mengbao for mercy, and then he would be in trouble...

It's okay to have bad luck once. Chi Lianshui really doesn't want to do it again, so he foolishly bumps into Guo Baoji.

“Grandpa Chi, if you don’t help me, who else can help me?” Plop… Plop, Meng Bao’s tears just fell: “Grandpa Chi, I was just scared at the time, and Uncle Gongzi wrote to me and asked me to go find my brother, so I left. I really didn’t mean it.”

She really just wanted to run away, so don't make the punishment more severe.

"Be good, Mengbao..." Chi Lianshui patted Mengbao's head: "No matter what you thought at that time, you made a mistake and ran away immediately. This is a fact. Don't explain to Grandpa Chi. Go explain to your Grandpa Guo, okay?" There was no use explaining to him. It was not him who wanted to punish Mengbao.

"But, but... Grandpa Guo ignores me." Meng Bao really had no other choice but to pester Chi Lianshui, begging him to intercede for him.

Apart from Chi Lianshui, she couldn't think of anyone else who could make Grandpa Guo calm down.

"Grandpa Chi, please, help Mengbao. Ask Grandpa Guo to change the punishment. Don't let Mengbao feed corpse worms anymore. Mengbao is really scared." In order to show authenticity, Mengbao did not forget to hug his body and shudder.

Mengbao looked so pitiful that Chi Lianshui felt very embarrassed. He squatted beside Mengbao, not knowing whether to leave or not. Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore. Mengbao's eyes were wet, so he nodded vigorously: "Okay, Grandpa Chi will try."

After being punished for so long, shouldn’t Guo Baoji calm down now?

Chi Lianshui thought uncertainly.

"Yeah..." Meng Bao jumped up happily after achieving his goal: "Grandpa Chi, you are so kind. Meng Bao loves you so much. You are the best person. Meng Bao swears that he will never tell Grandpa Guo that you smiled at the beautiful aunt down the mountain and gave her flowers."

"Puff..." Chi Lianshui almost vomited blood and quickly jumped up from the ground: "Mengbao, what are you talking about?" You little brat, you say whatever you want, you are so naughty.

Mengbao opened his eyes wide and looked at Chi Lianshui innocently: "Grandpa Chi, did Mengbao say something wrong? Mengbao clearly saw it at that time. You gave that beautiful aunt such beautiful flowers. You also told Mengbao not to tell Grandpa Guo. Mengbao remembers it all. Grandpa Chi, don't worry, I won't tell Grandpa Guo."

Meng Bao patted his chest to assure her, his face looked serious, but Chi Lianshui couldn't smile because he saw Guo Baoji walking out from behind Meng Bao...

"Junior brother, junior brother, it's a misunderstanding, it's really a misunderstanding, Mengbao is just talking nonsense, don't believe what Mengbao says." Chi Lianshui hurriedly stepped forward to explain, but Guo Baoji didn't listen at all and looked at him with a smile.

"Junior brother, don't listen to what Mengbao, that damn kid, says." Chi Lianshui really wanted to kneel down. Mengbao, this girl was so mean.

He had already promised to plead for Mengbao, but Mengbao still cheated him.

He wouldn't believe that this wasn't premeditated. How could it be such a coincidence?

Chi Lianshui glared at Meng Bao, the heartless boy. Meng Bao lowered his head in self-blame and said timidly, "I'm sorry, Grandpa Chi. I didn't mean it. I didn't know Grandpa Guo was behind me. Please forgive me."

"I believe you're a ghost." Chi Lianshui gritted his teeth and said, "You were afraid when your grandfather Guo punished you, but you are not afraid when I punish you?"

It's true that good people are often bullied. Isn't he just a little easier to talk to? Meng Bao actually cheated him.

"Grandpa Chi, don't be angry. I will help you explain to Grandpa Guo. You didn't laugh at that time, and you were very unhappy. It was that beautiful aunt who pestered you. You had no choice but to pick flowers for her."

It would have been fine if Meng Bao didn't explain. The more he explained, the brighter Guo Baoji's smile became, and Chi Lianshui became more uneasy...

"Brother, you are really popular." Guo Baoji finally spoke. Chi Lianshui felt cold all over when he heard it. He said carefully, "Brother, you really can't believe Meng Bao's words. She must be trying to avoid punishment. You must increase the punishment this time."

He would never sympathize with the little scoundrel.

"Grandpa Chi, you promised me that you would plead for me, how could you hurt me?" Meng Bao couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately pulled Guo Baoji's clothes, whispering to complain: "Grandpa Guo, Grandpa Chi promised me that he would plead for me, but now he is talking and not talking, Grandpa Guo, Grandpa Chi is bullying Meng Bao."

"Don't cry, Mengbao. Grandpa Guo will help you get revenge. Forget about the punishment. You have done very well recently. Grandpa Guo is very happy. In the future...if your Grandpa Chi has any problems, remember to tell Grandpa Guo. You can't hide it from Grandpa Guo anymore, okay?" Guo Baoji smiled kindly and Mengbao also burst into laughter. Chi Lianshui was the only one in the audience who couldn't laugh.

He was cheated. He was actually cheated by a cute baby. This kid is so annoying.

Woo woo woo…he is hurt.

"Mengbao, you hurt Grandpa Chi's heart. Grandpa Chi can't organize the medicinal herbs now. You go and organize the medicinal herbs for me tomorrow." You naughty kid, don't think you can relax without feeding the corpse worms. Just wait and see. If I don't torture you to death, I won't be named Chi!

But Chi Lianshui forgot that Guo Baoji was here. Mengbao only needed to pull Guo Baoji's clothes and say, "Grandpa Guo, Grandpa Chi scared Mengbao. Mengbao dared not speak anymore. Mengbao knew nothing."

Guo Baoji immediately glared at Chi Lianshui, asking him to lift the punishment on Mengbao. Chi Lianshui was furious, but he dared not say anything. He could only twist his face and tell Mengbao not to come...

"Thank you, Grandpa Guo, thank you, Grandpa Chi, you are really good people, Meng Bao loves you so much." Meng Bao bowed to them politely: "Grandpa Chi, Grandpa Guo, you can talk slowly, Meng Bao is leaving first."

Meng Bao ran to the back of the mountain and rushed to the Valley Master who was squatting in the herb garden weeding. He said happily, "Grandpa Valley Master, you are so awesome. Meng Bao followed your instructions and Grandpa Guo really didn't punish Meng Bao. Meng Bao loves you so much!"

"Haha... Grandpa Valley Master also loves the cute baby." The Valley Master hugged the cute baby with a smile, and couldn't stop the smug smile on his face...

Little Shuizi, you dare to fight with me, haha~you're in trouble!
