Warm medicine emits fragrance

Qi Weiming was furious. He had thought that Fan Liuer would have a good outcome by following Li Chenbi, which was why he was willing to withdraw without even telling Fan Liuer the truth.

Yesterday, he was ordered to raid the Li family's residence. He still couldn't let go of Fan Liuer, so he asked her to spare his men in exchange for information about her from a Li family servant who was supposed to be killed.

The result was that Fan Liuer had already absconded with the money.

Fan Liuer ran away before Li Chenbi was expelled from the family.

What does this tell us?

This shows that Fan Liuer didn't love Li Chenbi at all; Li Chenbi was the one who lied to her!

What a load of rubbish about harmonious and loving relationships!

If they were truly loving and harmonious, why would Fan Liuer have run away?

She must have run away because Li Chenbi treated her badly; she must have suffered a lot of grievances at Li Chenbi's hands.

Thinking of this, Qi Weiming was filled with rage and wished he could kill Li Chenbi.

That was his wife, his lawfully wedded wife!

He wanted to settle accounts with Li Chenbi yesterday, but he was too busy and couldn't get away. Today, after finishing his work, he didn't even have time to sleep before heading straight to Li Chenbi.

Two guards at the door stopped him. "Sir, my master is not receiving guests today. Please leave."

Qi Weiming drew his sword and charged at the two men, shouting, "I'm a lieutenant general under General Yan! Get out of my way!"

The guards stood still at the door.

Qi Weiming swung his sword and thrust it forward.

The guard drew his sword and charged forward. The two exchanged blows for a few moves, their strength evenly matched.

Qi Weiming stepped back, gritting his teeth in anger, and cursed into the courtyard, "Li Chenbi! You come out here, I'm going to kill you today!"

Hearing the cursing, the old lady looked both anxious and confused. "Who is this person?"

But no one had time to answer him. Li Chenbi propped himself up to get out of bed, but Li Qiuping was busy persuading him.

"Sir, there's no rush, there's no rush."

Li Chenbi pushed Li Qiuping away, took his crutch from the bedside, and helped himself to his feet.

"Shenbi, what are you doing? You need to rest and recover." The old lady also stepped forward to persuade her.

Li Chenbi wouldn't listen to anyone now; he only wanted to kill the person outside the door. He leaned on his cane and walked out.

Seeing that he couldn't dissuade him, Li Qiuping hurriedly pushed the wheelchair, "Grandpa, sit in the wheelchair, sit... Hey, Grandpa, wait for me!"

Li Chenbi had already left the house, and Li Qiuping, disregarding the need to push his wheelchair, turned and ran after him.

The old lady grabbed him, asking, "Who is this person?"

The old lady was truly astonished; she had never seen Li Chenbi hate someone so much before.

Li Qiuping whispered, "Speaking of which, they should be my enemy."

The old lady frowned. "What kind of deep-seated grudge is this?"

Li Qiuping: "The hatred of having my wife stolen."

The old lady's eyes widened. "The revenge for stealing a wife? When did Shen Bi..." The old lady was halfway through her sentence when a face appeared in her mind.

"Fan Liuer? Didn't she abscond with the money?"

Speaking of Fan Liuer, the old lady really disliked her. She had already compromised and was prepared to give in to Li Chenbi's wishes and let him marry her.

But the person actually ran away.

Li Qiuping was in a hurry to chase after Li Chenbi, but seeing that the man was about to disappear, he didn't have time to explain to the old lady. "Old lady, you can ask the master later. I don't know either." After saying that, he took off running.

The old lady was also anxious. She was worried about Li Chenbi's current state, so she followed after him.

Seeing this, Li Yuhe followed suit.

Li Chenbi arrived at the front yard and said to the gatekeeper, "Open the gate and let him in."

Upon receiving the order, the gatekeeper immediately opened the gate.

Qi Weiming, who was outside, saw the door open and rushed inside with his sword.

"I will kill you today!" The sword thrust towards Li Chenbi.

Li Chenbi swung his cane to block the sword's momentum, then channeled his inner force outwards, causing Qi Weiming to be knocked back several steps.

Before he could even regain his footing, he charged forward again, sword in hand.

Li Chenbi should not use his internal energy at this moment. The moment he made his move, his body temperature rose rapidly, a metallic taste rose in his throat, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Li Qiuping arrived at this moment, leaped out from under the corridor, grabbed a broom placed to the side, and swung it to block Qi Weiming's attack.

The guards at the gate rushed up, and the three of them surrounded Qi Weiming.

Qi Weiming stood there, sword in hand, looking past Li Qiuping at Li Chenbi with a mocking expression. "Do you dare kill me?"

"Li Chenbi, do you still think Xingzhou is a place where you can control everything?"

Li Chenbi scoffed, "So what if I kill you? Do you think you can leave alive after coming here today?"

Qi Weiming gripped his sword tightly, staring coldly at Li Chenbi, a hint of apprehension in his eyes.

He hadn't expected Li Chenbi to be so lawless.

Although he verbally threatened to kill Li Chenbi, he knew in his heart that this was not the time to kill Li Chenbi. He came here today only to vent his anger.

He thought that as General Yan's military advisor and a person close to General Yan, Li Chenbi would not dare to lay a hand on him, and would only be able to endure his insults. Besides, the fact that his wife had been taken by Li Chenbi was not a glorious thing, and he did not want his colleagues to know, so he came alone.

Unexpectedly, Li Chenbi actually dared to plot against him.

Composing himself, he said coldly, "Even if we can't get out, I'll drag you down with me."

"Then let's see if you have the ability." As soon as Li Chenbi finished speaking, Li Qiuping immediately made his move.

Qi Weiming raised his sword to block, but then a strong gust of wind came from behind him, and he dodged to the side.

Qi Weiming was skilled in martial arts, but the people around Li Chenbi were no pushovers either. He could handle one person, but he was quickly captured by the combined attack of the three.

Li Qiuping held his arm and pressed him to the ground.

He heard the sound of his cane hitting the ground. He looked up at Li Chenbi standing in front of him and gritted his teeth, saying, "I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"

Li Chenbi looked down at him, his eyes filled with a chilling coldness.

"Where did you hide her?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Weiming was so angry that he laughed. If he hadn't been held down and unable to move, he would have definitely jumped up and started cursing.

"I was also about to ask you where she went!"

"Li Chenbi, you said you two had a good relationship, and that she was doing well with you, so I gave her to you!"

Li Chenbi frowned. "Give way?"

"To her, you're nothing more than a complete stranger, someone she's never met or had a formal wedding ceremony with. What right do you have to use the word 'yield'? Do I need you to yield?"

Qi Weiming was furious. "I am her husband, the one who married her properly and brought her to Xingzhou. What right do you have to say such things to me? Who do you think you are!"

Li Chenbi gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with murderous intent.

He raised his hand and placed the cane against Qi Weiming's head. If he activated his internal energy, the cane could penetrate Qi Weiming's skull and pierce into his head.

"I'll ask you one last time." Li Chenbi's gaze lingered on him, his voice dark and chilling.

"Where did you hide her?"
