Lotus Tower is the second best in the world

Chapter 60 The sky fell overnight (two in one)

After the dinner, Li Lianpeng and others were arranged to rest in the guest rooms in Zhu's backyard, while Li Lianhua was stayed by Mr. Zhu.

No need to guess, it must be for the matter of the third little lady.

Zhu Shuyao, Mr. Zhu’s daughter, appeared in front of everyone and chased her away, disrupting the martial arts competition and making Mr. Zhu lose face in front of many people in the world. Judging from the strong posture shown by the head of the Zhu family tonight, he must have He wanted to find an explanation from the culprit Li Lianhua.

However, Li Lianpeng is not worried about this. Li Lianhua was able to create a Sigu Clan at the age of 17, which shows that his mental and strategic skills are excellent.In addition, after six years of hard work in the world, his emotional intelligence is naturally excellent. There must be no problem in dealing with Mr. Zhu.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have slipped away at the beginning and then come back. He should be confident.

It's night, I wish your backyard is filled with moonlight.

Li Lianpeng had too much dinner and was not very sleepy. She tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep, so she got up and opened the door of the guest room, ready to take a walk in the yard to eat.

After all, always using internal energy to stimulate digestion is not an option.

When he came to the courtyard, he found that there was another person in the courtyard, sitting at a stone table not far away, with his back to him.

"Xiaoyong?"

Li Lianpeng called out, and when the man turned around, it was Miss Zhu San and Zhu Shuyao.

"It turns out to be Miss Zhu, why are you here?"

"Master Li."

Zhu Shuyao forced a smile and asked, "I heard from my father that you and Li Lianhua are brothers?"

Li Lianpeng nodded solemnly, "Miss Zhu, Li Lianhua is indeed my foolish brother."

"It turns out it's true... Brother Li, does he know whether Li Lianhua knows martial arts?"

"what?"

Li Lianpeng had already guessed something. It must be Li Lianhua who took action for some reason.

Then he pretended to be stupid and said blankly: "My brother only knows medical skills, not martial arts? Why does Miss Zhu ask this?"

"No, nothing..."

Zhu Shuyao saw that his expression didn't seem to be fake, and shook her head slightly disappointedly. She had been waiting for a long time tonight, but she never asked.

"Oh, by the way, there is one more question I haven't asked. Why did it take you so long to chase my stupid brother away today?"

Zhu Shuyao looked up at him and said, "I was assassinated in the back mountain."

Li Lianpeng looked shocked, "Assassination?!"

Zhu Shuyao nodded and told Li Lianpeng what she encountered in the back mountain today.

Including the figure of the swordsman in white who was glimpsed in the dense forest at the back of the mountain.

Zhu Shuyao felt that the person who rescued him righteously was Li Lianhua.

But Li Lianhua always refused to admit it, saying that he had never been to the back mountain of the Zhu family.

After he left Meiyuan, he wandered around the town. Later, he felt that it was inappropriate to avoid her all the time, so he came to Zhu's house again, ready to make it clear to her and Mr. Zhu in person.

After listening to her words, Li Lianpeng pondered for a moment and said seriously:
"Tell the truth to Miss Zhu. This younger brother of mine has been frail and sick since he was a child. You have also seen that his complexion is different from ordinary people. He is very weak. That is caused by illness when he was young."

"After he became a doctor after a long illness and became a wandering doctor, he was determined to cure diseases and save people, and he had no time to practice martial arts. I tried to persuade him many times, but he refused to listen and insisted on using the next few hours. , so that ordinary people who have no money to see a doctor have the opportunity to receive treatment, so that they will not be like him, who got the root of the disease at a young age and suffered from the disease all year round."

After saying that, he looked up at the sky and sighed quietly, "It's a pity that my brother is young, but he is not going to die soon. He still has a few years to live. No one knows except him, but I'm afraid he won't live longer than that." Three years.”

Zhu Shuyao's expression changed and she stood up suddenly, "He, what kind of disease does he have? He only has three years to live?!"

Li Lianpeng casually joked: "An incurable disease is called 'cancer' in our hometown. It is difficult to cure with medicine and stone, and difficult to be saved by gods. We can only rely on precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum to survive."

"Looking at his condition now, I'm afraid he will have three years at most. After three years...sigh~"

Zhu Shuyao heard what he said was extremely serious, tears burst out of her eyes instantly, and she was moved and said:

"So it's not that he doesn't like me, but that he doesn't want to delay me because of himself..."

Well, this little lady Zhu San is really passionate about that brat Li Lianhua?
Don't you give up on this?
Li Lianpeng was quite dumbfounded for a moment.

Today, Li Lianhua secretly sent him a message, and her meaning was very clear. Nothing happened between him and this girl Zhu, and he did not want to stay here for too long.

Therefore, Li Lianpeng said such seemingly curse words in front of Zhu Shuyao.

The main reason is to help my brother get rid of the unrealistic idea of ​​Miss Zhu San.

But at present, it seems that his words have not had any substantive effect?
"Master Li, please rest early. Shuyao will leave."

Zhu Shuyao raised her arm, wiped the corners of her eyes, turned around and left quickly.

"Hey, wait—"

Before Li Lianpeng finished speaking, the woman's figure had already left the backyard quickly.

From the looks of it, he must have gone to find Li Lianhua.

"Hiss...this is done!"

Li Lianpeng patted his thigh and suddenly felt a headache.

Although he thinks that this girl Zhu is also very good, her appearance is not bad, her temper is not that coquettish of ordinary women, she has the free and easy boldness of a child in the world.

His life experience is even more impressive. He controls water, jade and fields, and has accumulated wealth for hundreds of years.

But after all, he is not a familiar figure, and it is not easy for him to make random mistakes.

Don’t make things self-defeating now!
Li Lianpeng stood there sighing and worrying for a while. When the door not far away suddenly opened and a head poked out, Li Lianpeng was no longer worried.

Da Da Da approached him and said in surprise:

"Huh? I thought I was the only one who couldn't sleep, but it turns out that you, Xiaoyong, couldn't sleep either..."

"Humph!"

"Is that Miss Zhu just now?"

"That's right, Miss Zhu."

"Why did she come to you?"

"She came to ask me to send a message to that heartless man Li Lianhua, so that he can take care of himself!"

----

At the same time, Prince Ji's Mansion was two hundred miles away.

In the huge palace, the only sounds heard were the chirping of insects.

For a long time, in a sleeping room.

"How? Can it still be cured?"

"I would like to report to the prince, I am sorry for my incompetence, but His Royal Highness is now out of shape and spirit, and his meridians are extremely chaotic. I am afraid... I am afraid that it will be difficult for gods to cure him!"

"Understood, you go down."

"Yes……"

After sending away 1 famous doctors, the originally graceful and kind-hearted King Ji's expression turned into a ferocious one.

His son was injured. Although he was not dead, he was stupid and completely disabled.

This is not the most important.

The most important thing is that with the death of the crown prince, he will completely lose the support of his relatives from the princess's natal family, which will have an irreversible and profound impact on his future plans to ascend to Dabao.Thinking of this, King Ji gave a cold shout and said:
"Come on!"

"Oh!"

There was a muffled sound of someone kneeling on his knees instantly outside the house.

King Ji looked uncertain, gritted his teeth and ordered:

"Send more manpower to my king to investigate! Who actually injured the prince that day? I want all nine of his clans to be killed!"

"Here!"

With Guang Jiliang slowly becoming king, and following the three-step plan to seize the heir, King Ji issued this order. Daxi, who was originally in danger, became even more precarious.

The original bloodbath in the world has become more intense.

Li Lianpeng, who had accelerated all this, was in front of Su Xiaoyong's room, apologizing and begging for forgiveness.

"Xiaoyong, I did something wrong today, please forgive me, okay?"

"Humph!"

"Don't hum. Just say a word. I promise, what happened today will not be the same next time."

As he spoke, he beat his chest loudly.

This shows your sincerity.

Su Xiaoyong on the other side of the door had a smile on his face, but he said reluctantly: "This is what you said. I won't do it next time, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

"Otherwise I will never pay attention to you again!"

"Well... of course there is no problem. When I speak, I, Li Lianpeng, will say what I say, and I will never do it again, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

"Otherwise, I will lose all my martial arts skills and become an ordinary person who cannot use my inner strength to eat!"

"..."

Su Xiaoyong didn't understand why Li Lianpeng was so obsessed with eating, as if he had a grudge against food. This was the third time that he turned into a glutton under the gaze of everyone.

That time in Yunze County, he was very hungry, so that was all.

But these two times today, he had obviously eaten a lot before, but he was still like this, which made people wonder whether he did it on purpose, deliberately letting her follow him and make a fool of himself in public.

If Li Lianpeng knew what Su Xiaoyong was thinking at this time, he would be afraid of being wronged to death.

He eats a little too hastily and ignores others, but there's nothing wrong with him!
As the saying goes, being able to eat is a blessing. His ability to eat like this is all due to his real ability!
Let others give it a try. Who can be like him, where the wind and clouds are gone and the grass is not growing on the dining table?

I'm afraid it's just one in a million, right?
After all, he can be regarded as a living and wonderful person in the world!

However, since Su Xiaoyong doesn't like it, Li Lianpeng will definitely change it.

After all the hard talk, he finally got his wife-to-be's forgiveness, and Li Lianpeng became shameless again.

"What about that? Since you can't sleep, Xiaoyong, why don't we take advantage of the bright moonlight and take a stroll around the Zhu family manor?"

"Then Mr. Zhu never said he wouldn't let us hang out, so it wouldn't be considered offensive, right?"

After he finished speaking, the door was opened. Su Xiaoyong, who was wearing a white dress, looked at Li Lianpeng who was standing at the door scratching his head, with red cheeks, and asked:

"It's already getting so late. We are guests. What should we do if we disturb the people in the house?"

Su Xiaoyong was also very excited about visiting the Zhu Family Villa at night. Her grandfather said that if the Zhu Family Mansion could not be breached by those Jianghu people because of its century-old inheritance, there must be some secret hidden in this mansion.

There are many people during the day, so it is not easy to pry around. It is late at night, and no one is paying attention. It is a good time to explore the secrets of Zhu Mansion.

This girl Su Xiaoyong is not a peaceful person, otherwise she would not go to Jin Mantang's house to treat people under the name of Guan Hemeng.

The first person in the world to inquire about Su Xiaoyong’s name was not in vain.

The Jinling Su family originally started out by selling Jianghu information, otherwise Su Wencai would not have come up with a ranking list of top ten thousand people and would have been recognized by Jianghu people.

It is precisely because the Su family has various information about many Jianghu people that the expert ranking list is recognized by all Jianghu people.

"Good talk!"

Li Lianpeng chuckled and said, "Have you forgotten? I know how to do Zen steps. I guarantee that no one will notice me wherever I go!"

Su Xiaoyong felt relieved and stepped out of the house.

The next moment, the little hand was held by a big hand.

Without waiting for Su Xiaoyong to struggle, Li Lianpeng said:
"You need to follow me closely so that no one will find out."

Feeling the temperature in the palm of his hand, Su Xiaoyong's heart beat wildly, and his tone unconsciously contained a hint of coquettishness,

"lecher!"

Under the moonlight, those smart eyes were watery.

Li Lianpeng, however, pulled her towards the outside of the yard with a puzzled look.

Under the white moonlight, the two of them settled down silently. Under the guidance of Li Lianpeng's Zen steps, he transformed into two night elves, male and female, and felt like they were in a deserted place in the Zhujia Villa, which covers an area of ​​dozens of acres.

Those Zhu family worshipers who were hiding in the dark never found any trace of the two of them. They only felt that although the moonlight was bright tonight, it seemed to be covered by dark clouds from time to time, which was strangely tight.

……

The next morning.

The courtyard where Mr. Zhu’s family lives.

A maid's scream almost echoed through the entire villa.

"master!!!"

I wish the old man Qingyuan is dead.

The day before, Mr. Zhu, who was hosting a martial arts contest to recruit a bride in Meiyuan, not far from Zhu's Mansion, died in his bed while chatting and laughing with everyone.

As soon as the backbone died, everyone in the Zhu Mansion fell into an unprecedented panic.

When Master Zhu's three concubines heard the bad news, two of them were so frightened that they fell into a coma. The other, with the help of the maid, came to Master Zhu's bedroom and cried loudly while hugging Master Zhu who died with a smile on his face. .

Yes, Mr. Zhu, who was over sixty years old, died with a smile on his face. With a satisfied smile on his old face, he lay on the wooden bed made of golden nanmu and closed his eyes forever.

Mrs. Zhu Sanniang stood in front of the couch, staring blankly at her father, who had cordially discussed her future marriage with her last night.

The whole person seemed to have lost his soul.

It wasn't until an old maid came forward and patted her back gently that the girl realized what she was doing and her body collapsed to the ground.

The Zhu family, which had been inherited for hundreds of years, fell overnight.

After a night tour of the Zhu Mansion, Li Lianpeng and Su Xiaoyong, who had just fallen asleep at dawn, heard the news and rushed to the bedroom where the old man of the Zhu family was staying. The housekeeper had already ordered his servants to prepare for the funeral.

Li Lianhua, who didn't know what she had said to the old man of the Zhu family last night, stepped in and stopped the housekeeper's arrangements.

"I wish the old gentleman a safe death and don't be in a hurry to deal with the funeral affairs."

He said this calmly, and then everyone present, including Li Lianpeng and Su Xiaoyong, looked at him.

　Two chapters in one. The main reason is that the number of chapters is not an even number every time I publish it. I just thought that tonight I would combine the two chapters to make an even number.The word count is that of two chapters ()
