Chapter 59: Picking flowers and flying leaves can hurt people
"General Zheng Peng has already led people to the border. I believe Ji Fang will not dare to act rashly." Luo Fanchen replied.
Liu Hu felt relieved. Zheng Peng was much more reliable than others in guarding the border. Moreover, Zheng Peng had been in the frontier for many years and had great prestige and achievements. The Zhou State did not dare to act rashly when hearing Zheng Peng's name.
After hearing this, Liu Hu felt much more relieved and no longer worried about the affairs of the court.
Xiao Leng disrupted his plan, and now that Xiao Leng is dead, he still has to implement his plan.
"Uncle, the carriage is so bumpy, your wound must be very painful. Let me blow on it for you." An Zhiruo saw that Liu Hu was in pain, so she lay down beside Liu Hu and lowered her head to blow on his wound.
The more obedient his daughter was, the more guilty Liu Hu felt. He secretly made up his mind that when he arrived in Houcheng, he would teach the bully who bullied Lan Xin and her daughter a lesson.
Because of Liu Hu, the carriage was not moving very fast. Hua Ying and Xue Mei were riding in the same carriage behind. It should have taken more than 20 days to travel, but it took two months.
The journey was peaceful and uneventful for the past two months. The only change was that the relationship between Zhiruo and Liu Hu was getting better and better.
After all, Liu Hu was the first man that Lan Xin had no resistance to. If it was another man, Lan Xin would have snatched Zhiruo back long ago and would not let Zhiruo have any contact with strange men.
When it came time to part, both Liu Hu and Lan Xin were reluctant to leave and wanted to stay with each other, but they did not speak their true feelings because of concerns in their hearts.
Arriving at Houcheng, Lan Xin jumped off the carriage holding Zhiruo and said to Liu Hu, "Thank you for your help along the way. I will take my daughter and leave first. If you want to take advantage of me in the future, just come over."
"Well, I really like taking advantage of you." Liu Hu was able to get out of bed and walk now. He looked at Lan Xin holding the child, standing in the carriage and waved his hand.
Zhiruo had some reluctance in her eyes, but she always listened to her mother. She waved to Liu Hu and the others and said, "Goodbye, uncle, goodbye, Uncle Si, goodbye, Uncle Luo, goodbye, aunt."
Through the interactions along the way, everyone had already fallen in love with this cute and polite little girl, and they said goodbye to Zhiruo one after another. Knowing that Zhiruo loved to eat, they had already prepared various snacks for her.
"Little Baozi, these are the preserved fruits that your uncle Si has collected for many years. Please keep them." The fact that Ah Si can offer them to eat is enough to prove how popular Zhiruo is.
Luo Fanchen said disdainfully: "Isn't it just bought from the roadside? Why are you pretending to be precious? Come, uncle has some sweet water here. After drinking it, it will clear away heat and detoxify, and replenish your physical strength. Keep it, and come to me if you run out of it."
Besides eating, little Baozi Zhiruo was interested in practicing martial arts. After taking the water from Luo Fanchen, she hurriedly said, "Thank you, uncle."
After seeing Zhiruo and her mother off, Liu Hu changed his gentle look and said to Ah Si, "Ask all the shopkeepers to come to Houcheng for a meeting."
These days, news from the court has been coming in like snowflakes. Liu Hu was troubled by Lan Xin's presence and has now finally made some time to deal with it all at once.
"Xiao Han has been trying to win over the ministers, and many of them have started to interact with Xiao Han frequently."
"Only Wenxuan was in Shangjing, so many ministers went to Wenxuan to inquire about Liu Hu's news, but they got nothing."
'The Zhou Kingdom originally wanted to send a large army to attack, but the Eighth Prince rebelled, so they did not attack.'
One piece of news after another reached Liu Hu's ears, and Liu Hu finally smiled at this time. Finally, everything was going according to his plan.
"Who is this? Houcheng does not allow such a crazy person to exist." Liu Hu wanted to speak again when he heard an arrogant voice coming from the front, which was very harsh.
Ah Si was honest and didn't want to pay attention. He just said, "Oh." and was about to change his route. If it was Luo Fanchen, he would definitely reply, "I was born this crazy."
After saying that, Yinzhen was assigned to him. Different personalities lead to different ways of dealing with problems.
"Is that all you need to say? Apologize to our young master!" Seeing that Ah Si was easy to bully, how could the servants miss the opportunity to bully the weak and fear the strong? They wanted to humiliate Ah Si.
"No, I did nothing wrong, why should I apologize?" Asi has always been a reasonable person. If he really did something wrong, he might apologize, but that doesn't mean he is a coward.
Luo Fanchen sighed and said, "Why waste time talking to a small fry like this?"
"Don't kill people in the street. I'm new here and I don't know the people's customs here yet." Liu Hu didn't want to reveal his identity. After all, he heard that Su Xing in Houcheng was bullying the people in the market. He wanted to take a good look at how corrupt Houcheng was.
I still firmly believed that Lingnan was my foundation , but I didn't expect that Lingnan was the most serious place.
When Ah Si heard that he couldn't hurt anyone's life, he had to put the hammer back and said to Luo Fanchen, "I'm not good at this. Being half dead is your strong point."
Although Asi's words were unpleasant to hear, they were true. Luo Fanchen was good at using poison, so he was the most suitable person to take action among these people.
He didn't make any movement. He just picked up the walnut that Ah Si had just stolen and threw it away . Then, the people who were shouting stopped moving immediately.
It was as if time had stopped. The people around looked on in surprise, wondering what kind of magic Luo Fanchen had used.
Liu Hu looked at Luo Fanchen's move and said, "Acupuncture points from a distance! Good boy, very powerful."
There are many people in the world who know how to press acupoints, but very few are good at pressing acupoints from a distance. After all, this martial art tests wrist strength and internal strength, neither of which can be missing.
Luo Fanchen is proud. Even though his fingers are broken, he cannot give up his acupoint-pressing skills. He has been practicing acupoint-pressing from a distance these days and has achieved some initial results.
"Look, even though the boss can't practice martial arts, his eyes are very sharp. He can immediately see that you are hitting the acupoints from a distance." After listening to Liu Hu's words, Ah Si praised him.
Although everyone in the world knew that he couldn't practice martial arts, why did Ah Si always bring it up? Knowing Ah Si's character, Liu Hu couldn't say anything, so he pouted and returned to the carriage.
"Congratulations, kid, you've learned a new trick. But didn't you know it before?" Asi didn't understand. He had seen Luo Fanchen use it before, so why did Walnut Boss react so strongly this time?
Luo Fanchen shook his wrist and continued, "Before, I used the boss's special silver needles. The weight and power of those silver needles were very convenient, so I could hit the acupoints from a distance. But now, I can use anything I want to hit the acupoints."
"Let me see this." Asi didn't believe it, so he pulled a leaf from the tree next to him and handed it to Luo Fanchen.
Luo Fanchen rolled his eyes and muttered, "F*ck, you idiot. Get out of here!"
