Chapter 537 I am really ashamed
Liao Jiu remained calm.
This matter is becoming more and more mysterious.
How did this misunderstanding come about? The eldest princess, having mistakenly been led to the War Prince's villa by the Inner Guard, mistakenly believed that it was the eldest son who saved her. It was understandable, as the eldest princess's brain had always been clumsy. But, this Xuanming, actually went along with it and admitted it?
He has an agenda!
However, it is better to admit it and temporarily clear Liao Jiu and Jiang Lianzhu of suspicion.
This will save the Internal Guard from having to keep an eye on them and their children again and again.
Xuanming admitted that it was the War King's intention or his own intention?
For what?
While the two were talking, Nanbao was clearly having fun playing with the snow wolves. Suddenly, a bird chirped and Nanbao pricked up her ears.
She also put her fingers to her lips and made a chirping sound.
Soon, a corresponding echo came from next door.
Nanbao got up from the ground, patted her butt and rushed towards the dog hole.
"Dad, Lao Yu has recovered from his illness. He's calling me to come over and play... I'm going..."
It was swept away like a gust of wind.
Liao Jiu hurriedly chased after him.
Nanbao had already climbed into the Zhanwang Villa through the dog hole. Liao Jiu was on the top of the wall and saw an old man sitting by the pond, fishing. There was also an empty small bench next to him, which was left for Nanbao.
When the three snow wolves saw the old man, they also ran happily, very energetic.
Liao Jiu followed him over.
"Junior Liao Jiu, I have met the War King. Last time, I was shortsighted and failed to recognize him. I am truly ashamed."
The old fisherman smiled faintly, "It's because I've changed so much, I don't blame you. You're a commoner now, and you're living a good life. Good boy, that's how you should be. You should be able to take on responsibilities and let go of them. You should be able to hold high positions and endure lows. You should remain calm in the face of praise or criticism, and keep your original intention. That's the best character."
Liao Jiu was ashamed by the old man's praise, "You think too highly of me. I don't feel bad about anything now. I married a good wife, and everything is enough for me."
Nanbao added with a smile, "Dad, you have a wonderful daughter!"
The old man and Liao Jiu were both amused.
"You clever little thing! Yes, and a good daughter."
Nanbao was already familiar with the process, so she put on the bait and started fishing.
Liao Jiu asked with concern, "Are you feeling better today, old man?"
"Much better. Doctor Jiang gave me an acupuncture yesterday, and I also took the medicine she prescribed. The effect is quite good. You must know my physical condition. Usually, it takes at least several days to recover after a relapse, but after Doctor Jiang's treatment, I recovered much faster this time. Thank Doctor Jiang for me."
"That's good. My wife is seeing patients now. She will come over to see you later."
"Well, okay, no rush. The people's illness is also an illness. Let her be cured first."
The old man spoke in a normal tone, without any airs at all.
Just at this moment, someone came from the palace.
He brought a lot of gifts and came specially to apologize to the King of War and his daughter.
First, I apologized to King Zhan. I didn’t know this was King Zhan’s villa and disturbed him.
Then he apologized to Nanbao, saying that the person in charge made a mistake and arrested Miss Nanbao by mistake...
Liao Jiu accepted all the gifts on behalf of Nanbao without hesitation. They were worth quite a bit of money, and he saved them all for Nanbao.
Nanbao is a very fierce girl. She was not frightened at all. Instead, she became more motivated. This false alarm was like giving her free money.
The compensation was too light, and the Imperial Household Department had spent a huge amount of money to prevent the Xiangwang Mansion from pursuing the matter.
The gift from the War King was also quite significant.
Prince Zhan didn't like being disturbed, so after the palace servants finished their business, Prince Zhan ordered them to leave.
"I'm sorry for scaring Nancy yesterday at my house. I'm giving these gifts to Nancy as well. It's my way of making up for it."
Nanbao waved her hand and said, "Laoyu, keep it to buy new clothes and rice. My parents have money..."
"Hahaha, I have some silver too. Take it and use it as your dowry." The little girl always thought he was poor, and she stole his pocket money several times to buy him rice.
Nan Bao said seriously, "I will marry a husband in the future. If I don't marry anyone, I don't need a dowry. I will marry eight husbands!"
The old fisherman couldn't help laughing. "Okay, if you marry eight husbands, you'll need betrothal gifts. I'll give it to you as a betrothal gift..."
Liao Jiu will have a good talk with his wife when he gets home. What has she taught the child?
A mess.
Marry eight husbands!
There is no such law in Da'an Kingdom, and I am afraid that when the time comes, you will be treated as an alien.
While the child is still young, we must correct this weird idea.
After saying a few more words, Liao Jiu left Nanbao here, letting the old and the young stay together and feel more comfortable. He went back to do his own thing.
He also took back the things he had brought from the palace.
Don’t miss it.
…
After Liao Jiu left, Nanbao started talking in a babble mode.
Ask Lao Yu if he is really that powerful war king?
She asked him why he got sick when he was perfectly fine, and told him not to worry, that her mother would cure him, and that if he got sick again, she could go and accompany him. She didn't mind that he was sick, and she was a chatterbox.
The old man patiently answered them one by one.
"Didn't I tell you not to come see me yesterday? Why did you come anyway?"
Nan Bao said, "I saw a thief in your house, so I came here to catch him for you. But those two bad guys were very skilled in martial arts and deliberately tried to catch me. I was so angry that I almost died."
"Are you scared?"
"At that time, I was a little bit afraid that they would take me away. I would not be able to see my parents, brothers, and Lao Yu anymore. My Xue San would also be sad. Later, someone rescued me, and I was not afraid anymore! I want to grow up quickly. If I become an adult, those two people will not be able to take me away. They are just bullying me because I am a little kid..."
Aren't you just a little baby?
The old man smiled, "Very brave."
"Of course I will. I have to become stronger and protect my parents, my brothers, and Lao Yu!"
"Then I'll wait..." The old man asked with a smile, "Did anything interesting happen in the past two days while I was away? Tell me about it."
Nanbao suddenly became gloomy. "There are no fun things, but there are some things that make me angry. Humph, I am so angry that I can't even enjoy my meal."
"Oh, tell me, what's wrong with our daughter not being able to enjoy her meal?"
Nianbao said, "Chengfeng Jifeng flew away! The prince is a bad guy. My eldest brother and second brother went to the palace to see the emperor uncle, but the prince stopped them and asked our family to send Chengfeng Jifeng to the palace to be his mount. He also said that if Chengfeng Jifeng didn't obey, he would kill them! My second brother refused, and the prince wanted to beat my second brother. Then, my parents let Chengfeng Jifeng fly away, saying that he would be targeted by bad guys. Chengfeng Jifeng ignored me before, but later he became my good friend, especially Jifeng. When we were in the mountains, bad guys were chasing us, and it was Jifeng who took us to escape. He even took me to fly over the cliff. It was so fun... Now, they are gone. I miss them so much..."
