Cute fox's counterattack

Chapter 69: Cooperative Business

The night was cool.

Dongfang Chen was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, lighting a candle and flipping through a book of miscellaneous notes.

"Knock, knock, knock." There was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"It's me." A strong middle-aged male voice sounded outside.

"Father, are you still awake at this late hour?"

Outside the door, Dongfang Wenyu was standing in front of the door, wearing a big turtle.

"Come out for a walk if you can't sleep, I see that your room is still on, you must not be asleep, I want to chat with you about home affairs."

"Father, come in quickly, it's cold outside."

He poured a cup of warm tea and handed it to Dongfang Wenyu, and Dongfang Chen also sat opposite him.

"I don't know what father wants to talk about?"

"Chen'er, a while ago, Steward Liu sent a letter saying that you had a strange disease. I don't know how you are now? But you're alright?" Dongfang Wenyu scanned his body up and down.

"It's all good, thanks to Xue Yan'er, I was saved." Dongfang Chen raised his eyebrows.

"Xueyan? Who is the famous doctor?" Dongfang Wenyu asked.

Dongfang Chen lowered his brows and couldn't hide his disappointment, "He's not a doctor, he has saved my child's life once, so my child let him stay in the mansion temporarily, this time it is he who can survive this time."

"Really? The old man has to thank him very much. He is really Chen'er's lucky star. Where does he live now?"

"he's gone."

"Gone? How did you go?"

"The boy didn't see him after he woke up. Uncle Liu said he was busy, so he left first." Dongfang Chen's voice gradually lowered.

Dongfang Wenyu patted him on the shoulder, thinking that he felt guilty, "We'll let him come over for a rest next time he comes here, and reward him face to face."

"Well, the child knows."

Dongfang Wenyu took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "Chen'er, what do you think of Mr. Murong brought back by father today?"

Dongfang Chen pursed his lips, "Looking at his conversation, he doesn't look like an ordinary son, he must be a remarkable figure in the capital."

"Yes, he is indeed a big shot in Beijing, Chen'er must be courteous, and must not be reckless."

"Yes, father."

"Father asked you to take the exam before. If you really don't want to, it's fine. Father won't force you anymore. You can recuperate at home if your legs and feet are handicapped these days. Father will take care of everything in the house."

"Okay, thank you father for being considerate."

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go to bed earlier." Dongfang Wenyu stood up and pressed Dongfang Chen on the stool, so you don't have to move.

"Then... father, go slowly."

"it is good."

Looking at the fastened door, Dongfang Chen stood up slowly and limped onto the bed.

The weather was gloomy, and there were thick clouds in the sky, indicating that something ominous was about to happen.

"Elder, Lord Xuekou called all the elders to the hall for a meeting, please come over." A little fox said out of breath.

Elder Li exploded in his heart, "What is supposed to come will always come, whether it is a blessing or a disaster, it is a disaster that cannot be avoided."

"Let's go."

There were already several elders in the hall, whispering to each other, not knowing what to say, nodding and shaking their heads from time to time.

Of course Elder Li knew what they were talking about. There had been a lot of rumors in the past two days. If he didn't know, it was probably only the person who was lying on the bed.

As soon as Elder Li stepped into the room, an elder who was discussing enthusiastically saw him, "Elder Li, you are here." His words caught the attention of other elders.

"Yes, all the elders are here."

"Tell me whether this is true or not. Now the entire fox clan is spreading the word. It would be a joke if other clans knew about it."

After the words fell, another elder continued: "The king is a role model for our clan. If such a mistake is made, even the king will not be able to escape the blame."

"Yes, yes." Several other elders replied in response.

"Elder Li, your opinion is..."

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door, and everyone fell silent.

"I probably understand what Elder Li thinks, why don't you let me speak for Elder Li, what do you think?" Xue Kou, dressed in white, walked in from the door with a smile on his face that couldn't reach his eyes at all.

The squinting eyes swept across the circle, with a feeling of contempt over the crowd, and suddenly became the focus of everyone.

Finally, his eyes stopped on Elder Li, "Elder Li, how do you think Xue Kou will do it for you?"

Elder Li glanced back, attacking and defending, "Please go ahead."

Xue Kou withdrew his gaze, the corners of his mouth curved deeper, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Before I say anything, let me say something. The elders are summoned today because of the rumors during this period. I think everyone already knows about it, and I haven't verified it. I think everyone wants to know the ins and outs of the matter. Elder Li, do you also want to know? .”

"Yesterday, I went to the palace, and the king was indeed injured." As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

"Could it be that what I heard before is true, what should I do?"

"Yeah, I've heard a lot too."

"It seems that he is still too young to be a great leader."

"Yes, yes, alas!"

……

Xuekou glanced at the determined Elder Li out of the corner of his eyes, and smiled mockingly, "Quiet, although the king was injured, but after all, no one knows about the time the king was in the human world, and the specific truth is unknown, so... Everyone is still waiting to see what happens.”

"How is this possible! How can we let this matter go, it's related to the reputation of my fox clan, those little foxes in the underground don't know what they are talking about, if they just let it go like this, then it's fine." Elder Lu immediately stood up.

Xue Kou nodded and looked at all the elders present, but no one came out to speak.

Seeing this, Xue Kou's seriousness revealed a trace of displeasure, but he didn't want to show it.

"How about, let's test it out." After half a stick of incense, an elder finally stood up and said this.

This is a compromise, everyone agrees and nods.

"Elders, do you have a plan for how to test?"

"This..." Everyone was silent again.

"Since everyone hasn't figured it out, then let's do it and discuss it tomorrow."

After everyone left, Elder Lu walked up to Xue Kou, "Why don't you just pull him off the horse and test him a little bit more."

Xue Kou's eyes sharpened, "You didn't see the reaction of these old guys today, if I rashly proposed to dismiss them, they would definitely not agree, but if this matter is known to everyone and the evidence is conclusive, then he wants to rely on it." I can't afford it, do you understand?"

"Understood. So what shall we do now?"

"Wait and see what happens, you just have to go and make this fire a little bigger."

"I see, then I will retreat first."

"Go."

Xuekou's handsome face showed a smile that was bound to win.

Elder Li came directly to the palace, and the people guarding the door immediately stood up and said respectfully, "Elder Li."

"Well, is the king awake?"

"Wake up, I just drank the medicine."

"Keep guarding and don't allow anyone to come in."

"Yes, elder."

Covered by a white curtain, a vague figure was revealed.

"Wang, you're awake, how do you feel?" Elder Li walked over in two or three steps.

"Much better, Elder Li, why are you here?" Xueyan said weakly.

"Nothing to do, Wang, you can restore your human body now, can you?"

"I'm much better now, don't worry about it. Did something happen in the clan?"

"Hey! The whole Fox Clan is aware of the matter between you and that mortal, so the elder was summoned by Xue Kou to hold a meeting today." Having said this, Elder Li stopped and looked at him slightly uneasy.

Sure enough, she found the sadness and worry flashing in Xueyan's eyes.

"Then what do the elders say now?"

"I haven't figured out any countermeasures yet, and we'll discuss it tomorrow. Wang, you have to take care of yourself quickly."

"I see, elder, I'm tired."

"The old minister stepped back first, let me know if there is anything."

Xueyan lay on the bed, her thoughts were confused, she closed her eyes with a casual 'hmm'.
