Chang'an Fu

So Li Yu tapped that brick a few more times to see what kind of secret he was hiding, once, twice, three times, four times...Apart from the constant hollow voices responding to him, there was no miracle. Just as Li Yu was thinking about the mystery, he suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he naughtily went to the bedroom of his mother and concubine, and found a little stone lion that looked very special. He was happy, so he wanted to take him out to show his father, but when he went to get it, he found that the stone lion was fixed on the shelf. He really didn't want to give up, so he thought of a way to get him down. Carefully turned the body of the stone lion, and suddenly the shelf behind him opened suddenly. At that time, his mother and concubine came back to see him, and scolded him.

Thinking of this, Li Yu rotated the floor tile. As expected, the wall that was originally a dead end was suddenly opened by a mechanism. I didn't expect such a hidden mechanism to exist in this place, Li Yu thought so. Walking into the stone gate, as soon as he walked in, the stone gate was closed immediately. He didn't have time to think about it. Behind the stone wall is a courtyard. The flowers and plants in this courtyard are growing very well, forming a harmonious relationship with the desolation in Mao'an City. In stark contrast, for a moment Li Yu thought he had gone to another world, but even so, he still didn't see any trace of the little girl.

"My lord, just now the guard at Mao'an came to tell the time, saying that a man broke into the city."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came, and Li Yu hurriedly hid in a room in shock. At this time, the man called an adult spoke.

"It's just an ant, don't worry too much, he can't find anything, isn't there people from us in the city, if he finds out those patients send someone to kill him"

"Yes" the man backed away, and the man called an adult entered another room. Seeing this, Li Yu immediately followed up, watching the man's movements through the crack of the door, only A little girl jumped out of the back room when she saw a man coming, and the man held the girl with open arms

"Father" the girl called out sweetly. Only then did Li Yu see the girl's face clearly. It was the little girl he had met before. He didn't expect that she was not a commoner in the city but the daughter of Lord Lao Shizi.

"Peng'er is good today, did you sneak out to play?" the man asked softly, completely different from the gloomy look that he said before when he said he was going to kill someone.

"No, Peng'er has been practicing calligraphy in the room all day." The little girl called Peng'er said with a guilty conscience.

"Hey, Peng'er, Dad and I have told you many times, now that there is turmoil outside, you must not sneak out and run out, you are..."

"Father's sweetheart?" The man's words were taken over by his daughter before he finished speaking. It seems that he has said this many times. "Peng'er knows."

The man pampered his daughter's head and sighed, "Father still has something to do, you stay in the room obediently, don't run out for fun anymore." Seeing that the man was about to go out, Li Yu hurried aside to hide

Seeing the man walk away, Li Yucai came out from behind the pillar

"Are you coming in?" The immature childish voice spoke, Li Yu saw that he had been discovered, and did not dodge, so he pushed the door and walked in.

"Aren't you afraid of me?" Li Yu asked playfully. He ran away when he saw him before, but now he took the initiative to recruit him.

"Afraid of what you are doing" the little girl asked puzzled

Now Li Yu felt it was more fun, "Don't be afraid of me, why did you run away when you saw me?"

"I was afraid that my father would find out and get angry, not because of you," the child said arrogantly.

Li Yu thought it was funny seeing her pretending to be indifferent, "Then why did you ask me to come in when you were writing, not afraid of being discovered by your father?"

"I asked you to come in so that my father would not be angry." The child looked like you are not grateful for saving you

"Oh? How should I say it?" Seeing her like that, Li Yu wanted to tease her even more.

"Do you know who my father is? You are not from our Mao'an at first glance. If you sneak in like this and my father finds out, you will definitely be overwhelmed and walk away."

"Since your father is so powerful, why did he keep you locked in this room and not let you out?"

Seeing that Li Yu didn't believe him, the kid immediately panicked, "What do you know, there are a lot of bad guys out there now, Xiao Fu'er was killed by these bad guys, my father did it to protect me"

"Who is Xiao Fu'er?"

"Xiao Fu'er is my friend, those bad guys killed him, and his father said he was suffering from the plague." Tears welled up in the child's eyes when he said this, it seemed that he was sad when he thought of his playmate

"Since your father said that he was suffering from the plague, why do you say that he was killed by those bad guys?"

"I saw it." Speaking of this, the child immediately covered his mouth, realizing that he had slipped his mouth, "It's none of your business, anyway, after Xiao Fu'er dies, I won't have any friends anymore."

This mansion is obviously still in Mao'an, and the only person who can be called an adult here is the guard Zhang Chengyou. However, after the plague broke out here, the guard is still in the city, and there is nothing wrong with him. Hiding my own daughter, these actions are really puzzling

Seeing that the kid was hiding something, Li Yu changed the subject, "It's really strange, I didn't see a single person all the way here just now."

How could the child have the expression of someone who has never seen the market like him, "We have just experienced a major incident here, and the villagers have all been infected with the disease, so those who died died, and those who did not die were hidden."

"Hiding? Where?" Li Yu continued to ask

"Why should I tell you?"

Seeing that children are not easy to fool, Li Yu decided to change his strategy and find ways to please the child.

"Didn't you say it's boring to be here alone? I'll teach you a fun one." Li Yu picked up a bunch of dead leaves from under the tree outside, and the child looked at him with doubts as he carried a bunch of leaves into the tree. I don't know what he wants to do

"Look at it," Li Yu said as he stood up the leaves. Dead leaves are harder than green leaves, so they can stand up. He piled up the leaves one by one. They can't be piled up very high, because they will collapse when they reach a certain level, you can try it." Li Yu had already piled up a very high layer while speaking.

The child took the dead leaves from Li Yu's hand with a look of disbelief and was eager to try. The first few leaves went smoothly, but when the third floor was piled up, that floor already felt crumbling. When a leaf finally couldn't hold on, it fell apart

Seeing that his pile was not as good as Li Yu's child, who was unwilling to give up, he tried a few more times, but every time he collapsed at the second or third floor, Li Yu couldn't help but find it funny when he saw him like that, and the child insisted Unremitting looks very much like him when he first played this game when he was a child

"You don't need to worry, this is practiced slowly, you can pile it up at the beginning is already very good, when I first played at that time, it took a lot of effort to stand up the first leaf."

Hearing Li Yu say this, the child's face showed a smug look, "Look at it, I will practice better than you are now in a while."

"All right, all right, of course I believe you. You see, I have already taught you how to play this game and solved your problem. Shouldn't it be time for you to solve my problem?" Li Yu took the opportunity to please

"what do you want"

"Tell me, where are the people who got sick and survived?"

Hearing Li Yu's request, the child was still a little hesitant, but he still said, "Father forbids me to tell others, so please don't cause trouble. I don't want my father to be angry."

"I promise you." Although Li Yu knew that this might be deceiving the children, he had no choice but to do so in order to find out the truth.

Seeing Li Yu agreeing to himself, the child also believed the big brother in front of him "They are in a secret room in my house"

Another secret room, it seems that there are quite a lot of secret rooms in the royal guard's house "Can you take me there?"

"Not now, I just promised my father not to run around, and the secret room is over my father's study, and now my father is talking with people there, if I go in the past, I will find out immediately." The child paused, "Are you going?" Play this with me, I'll take you there tonight"

Li Yu felt right after thinking about it, so he played with the child on the pile of dead leaves in peace of mind. Although there were constant twists and turns, the child seemed to compete with the pile of leaves, and piled them upside down. Poured again...and so on, until the servants came to deliver the food

"Someone is coming" Li Yu said softly, suddenly vigilant

The child looked at the time outside, "It's about time, I think it's my servant who brought me food."

As soon as the words fell, an old male voice came from outside, "Miss, it's time to eat."

Li Yu hurriedly hid behind the screen, and the child saw that the person had already hidden and called the servant to come in, "Uncle Wu, come in."

The door was opened, and a white-haired old man walked in with a meal. The old man said while putting the food on the table, "Miss, today the master specially ordered the kitchen to make your favorite braised pork. Come and taste it." taste"

The child walked over, looked at the dishes on the table but looked unhappy, "Uncle Wu, can't daddy eat with me today?"

Seeing what his lady said, the old man named Uncle Wu raised his head, "Miss, master is still busy now, if you feel lonely eating alone, Uncle Wu can stand aside and watch you eat."

The child said with a disappointed face, "No, you can go, I don't want you to accompany me, you go and remind father to remember to eat."

Uncle Wu left helplessly. At this moment, Li Yucai came out from behind. Looking at the lonely back of the child, he couldn't help but think of himself when he was a child. By myself, but this kid is obviously alone most of the time
