Shui Yichen had been feeling that someone was following him for the past few days. He had been on guard, so when he heard the noise on the roof, he had already broken the window and stopped the thief who was trying to escape.
When he saw that it was three children, he was stunned.
They were actually children! Were they the ones who had been following him for the past few days?
Shui Yichen looked down at the four plum seeds on the tiles. They were the same kind of plums that were left on the other day. The people who had been eavesdropping on their conversation on the roof were the same three children!
How could they have followed him for so many days without anyone noticing?
"Mingxi …" Huangfu Chen blurted out. He stared at the child in the middle. The sense of familiarity was too strong. He remembered the child who had amazed him.
Over the years, other than taking Lu Yaoyao as his disciple, he had two other students.
"Sir, do you still recognize me?" Mingxi asked with a smile. He had thought that Huangfu Chen wouldn't remember him. After all, he hadn't been Huangfu Chen's student for a long time, and it had been so many years.
The sentence was light and cheerful, but it was like a thunder in Huangfu Chen's heart.
He knew very well what it meant. This child was Mingxi.
Mingxi … Lu Yaoyao's son. The child who had been missing with Lu Yaoyao for four years.
"Who did you say he was?" Shui Yichen looked at Huangfu Chen in shock.
Huangfu Chen didn't hear him. He took a step forward and looked down at Mingxi. The more he looked at him, the more he felt that it was him. Although Mingxi and Ming Yu were twins, they looked different. "Are you really Mo Mingxi?"
"Sir, didn't you recognize me?" Mingxi said with a smile. He used to call Huangfu Chen tutor, but he was no longer a prince and Huangfu Chen was no longer the tutor of the Jin Nation. He could only call him Sir.
"You …" Huangfu Chen was agitated. He hadn't been so emotional for a long time. He didn't know how to ask.
Shui Yichen pressed on Mingxi's shoulder. "Are you Mo Mingxi? What's your mother's name? "
Mingxi frowned and pushed Shui Yichen's hand away. "My mother is Lu Yaoyao, of course."
"Where is she? Where is she?" Shui Yichen asked loudly.
Broken tiles fell to the ground, and the place where they were standing looked shaky.
"It's not very convenient to speak here," Ming Xi said mildly. "Why don't we go inside?"
"Let's go!" Shui Yichen immediately pulled Ming Xi's hand to the other side of the house.
Shang'er and Fire Phoenix hurriedly followed.
Huangfu Chen was surprised when he saw them following behind Shui Yichen.
They all came to the house. Ye Wei was outside the study room. She was about to go in, but she didn't expect that there would be someone on the roof. She stood below and quietly listened to their conversation.
That child was Lu Yaoyao's son …
Had Lu Yaoyao returned?
"Where's your mother?" Shui Yichen only wanted to know if Lu Yaoyao had returned. If even Mo Mingxi could return, what about her?
"Let me go first." Ming Xi said calmly even though he really wanted to throw Shui Yichen out.
Shui Yichen didn't listen to him at all. "You've been following me for a few days. What exactly do you want? Where have you been these past few years? "
"You've asked so many questions. Which one do you want me to answer?" Ming Xi struggled out of Boiled Water Yichen's grasp and took a few steps back.
Huang Fuchen asked from behind him, "Did you guys come back safely?"
"Yes, except for Qiu Hen, we're all back." Ming Xi smiled and said, "We've been in Yuan Country for a few days and only found you today. You're really good at hiding."
Shui Yichen took a deep breath. He could hear his heart beating faster.
"Then …" Huangfu Chen opened his mouth, but his voice sounded hoarse. He paused for a while before asking, "Where are your father and mother?"
Ming Xi looked at Shui Yichen. "They're busy with other things. They should be arriving at Yuan Country soon."
"Where did they go?" Shui Yichen asked. "How long have you been back?"
"Almost a month." Ming Xi raised his eyebrows. "They went to Qi Country to pick someone up."
Shui Yichen immediately understood what was going on. He had long known that the Jin Country's princess was left behind by Cheng Zheng.
Huangfu Chen knew that their disappearance was a strange matter, and he had been hiding it from Shui Yichen. "Ming Xi, did something happen?"
"My parents told me to look for you first." Ming Xi smiled and said, "I heard that Yuan Country is going to join forces with Qi Country to deal with Jin Country."
"What?" Huangfu Chen was stunned. He looked at Shui Yichen and said to Ming Xi, "This must be a misunderstanding."
Shui Yichen had already calmed down from his shock. He had seen Ming Xi before. Although he was still very young back then, he could still see the shadow on his face.
He looked at Ming Xi carefully. He indeed looked like Mo Rongzhan, and Huangfu Chen recognized him. There was no doubt that he was Lu Yaoyao's son …
"Have you been following me these few days?" Shui Yichen suddenly asked.
"Not really. We just want to find you. Only you can help us find you." Ming Xi smiled and said, "Now that we've found you, we won't follow General Shui anymore."
Shui Yichen's face darkened. His words were very harsh.
"Where have you been these few years?" Shui Yichen asked.
"We met with some trouble, so we took some time." Ming Xi said, "We've been back for a month."
"Why didn't you tell us?" Shui Yichen asked coldly.
Ming Xi looked at Shui Yichen and said, "I heard that the relationship between the Yuan Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom is not very good these few years. There are too many rumors, and we have our concerns."
"What concerns?" Shui Yichen's face darkened. He did not want to be allies with Murong Ke, but it was all for her. Was she afraid of him now that she was back?
"I'm afraid that things have changed," Ming Xi said straightforwardly. He did not care about Shui Yichen's dark expression at all.
Huangfu Chen sighed in his heart. "You've been back for a month, and there's no news from the Yuan Kingdom. Is … is someone deliberately hiding it from us?"
"It's my mother." Ming Xi smiled and said, "I have a surprise for you."
"Indeed … a surprise." Huangfu Chen chuckled. "It seems that your father and mother do not plan to stay in the Jin Kingdom for long."
Ming Xi looked at Huangfu Chen and said, "How did you know that before you met my parents?"
"You've been back for so long, but the Jin Kingdom is still peaceful. It seems that … Mo Rongzhan and Yaoyao do not plan to return to the palace," Huangfu Chen said in a low voice. He knew the two of them well. It seemed that they were not interested in the throne.
"My father cannot see, so of course he is not suitable to be the Emperor. Isn't sixth uncle good?" Ming Xi smiled and said this for Shui Yichen.
Huangfu Chen was stunned. "What happened to your father's eyes?"
