Men are superior to women: the heartthrob in Yunqi

Chapter 230 Mu Yao's Concern

It was a dark night and the Grand Tutor's residence was silent.

Mu Yao saw that the candlelight was still flickering in the main courtyard and knocked on the door.

"Yaoyao, Qingcheng is here. Have you gone back to Linglong Pavilion to see her?" Li Changan asked after glancing at the sky.

"Not yet. Dad, when did he come?" Mu Yao asked nervously.

Li Changan picked up the tea can, shook some of the tea into the pot, poured hot water on it, and quickly awakened the tea aroma.

"I came before dinner. Dad and Qingcheng drank a little too much today, so we'll just have to drink the tea."

"Dad, don't bother. Why don't you go to bed early?" Mu Yao saw that her father's eyes were lifeless and thought about coming to see him tomorrow.

Li Changan raised his head and took a long breath, "It's okay. Let's have a good chat as father and daughter. Let's try the new tea 'June Yellow' that son-in-law Shen brought."

"Did Chutang bring it to you?" Mu Yao asked in surprise.

"It arrived two days ago. This kid is thoughtful. Whenever he has good tea, he thinks of me. I heard from Qingcheng that you will live in Beijing for a long time in the future? Remember to call son-in-law Shen as soon as possible." Li Changan held his eyes tightly, picked up the teapot, shook it gently twice, and poured the tea into the cup.

The tea soup is dark red in color and has a rich aroma. Once you take a sip, it penetrates into your lungs and takes away your tipsiness.

Li Changan saw Mu Yao lowering her head, as if she was lost in thought, and asked, "I heard that a Mr. Shi sent you back today? Was he with you just now?"

Seeing her father's smiling face, Mu Yao knew that he must have misunderstood. Since the topic had been opened, she thought about it and told him everything that had happened along the way.

The more Li Changan listened, the more solemn his expression became, and the more frightened he became. Especially when he heard about Mu Yao being poisoned, his expression suddenly changed, and his tipsy look disappeared.

"Yaoyao, in a few days, Dad and you will go back to Lanling County to thank our friends in the Poison Valley and Master Yu Heng."

Mysterious magic?

Li Changan's mind flashed back to the strange scene that appeared in the sky above the garden when he passed by Lord Wu's old house today. He suddenly became alert and immediately said, "Yaoyao, you and Ji Qi are rarely together, why don't you stay in Southern Xinjiang for a while."

Mu Yao raised her head suddenly and said in surprise: "Dad, why do you suddenly have this idea?" If you want to say that we are together less and apart more, there is still a way to say thank you, right?

"You are by his side, Daddy is relieved. Daddy passed by Lord Wu's old house today. The sky was full of colorful clouds, but the sky above the house was covered with dark clouds. If there is an unusual phenomenon in the sky, something must happen. You should leave Shangjing as soon as possible, and then let Wushang and Chutang go with you."

"Dad, are you sure it's Lord Wu's old house?" Mu Yao shuddered. That was You Changqing's house now. Could his injury today also be related to that old man?

It was a mess, everything was a mess, and she couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts.

"It's not just dad who saw the strange phenomenon today. Many people saw it. But the strange phenomenon disappeared immediately after dad knocked on the door. I don't know who lives in that house now. It's not a good sign." Li Changan shook his head and said in a deep voice.

Mu Yao's mind was filled with alarm. If this matter was really related to the old man, it meant that the danger had spread to Shangjing. But Situ Zhuo and the master both lived in Lanling County.

Cold sweat broke out like the tide, and she didn't dare to think any further.

"Dad, if I'm really targeted by someone, I'm afraid even Ji Qi won't be able to protect me." Mu Yao's face was full of bitterness.

The mysterious and profound Tao is illusory and cannot be comprehended by ordinary people. Whether in Yunqi or in her original world, it is a mysterious existence that cannot be explained or understood. If you believe it, you believe it, otherwise it does not exist.

Ji Qi doesn't know any tricks or mysterious arts. If that person really wants to harm him, he may use some incredible methods, and more importantly, it will implicate Ji Qi.

He is the ruler of southern Xinjiang, and his situation is related to the country's independence and people. He cannot take this risk.

Mu Yao was extremely anxious. Although it was possible that she was just worrying too much, there weren't that many coincidences in this world, especially when there was an ambiguous connection between the two.

During this period, the threats from the old man and the pressure to have a child made her feel like a thorn in her back, making her feel uneasy.

The mountains in her heart were crushing her little by little. At the moment of suffocation, Mu Yao told Li Changan her biggest worry in recent days.

After listening to Mu Yao's narration, Li Changan was not as surprised as she had imagined. He had always loved books, and decades of reading had made him well-versed in ancient and modern knowledge.

Although he had not delved deeply into the mystical arts, he knew a thing or two.

"Yaoyao, are you sure that Master Yu Heng is the body of the Red Gold Boy?"

Looking at her father's gradually heated gaze, Mu Yao nodded in confusion.

"Is he interested in you?"

Mu Yao's mouth froze, and she didn't express her opinion.

"No intention?" Li Changan widened his eyes and took a breath.

Impossible! In this world, he didn't believe that there would be a man of marriageable age who would not be impressed by his daughter's beauty.

Li Changan poured a few sips of warm tea down his throat, suppressed his inner excitement and said: "The fate of the Red Gold Boy is extraordinary. If you can marry that master, your life span can be greatly extended. As for how much it can be extended, it varies from person to person."

Mu Yao's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Li Changan nodded with a smile and said, "So Yu Heng determines your future fate. Yaoyao, you should go back to Lanling County tomorrow. Dad will speak to the Xu family. You should focus on Yu Heng first, and don't worry about other things."

Mu Yao was silent for a while and shook her head.

Li Changan knew her concerns and consoled her, "In life, it is normal to have ups and downs. You can't just sit there and wait for the next step. Sometimes the idea of ​​not moving if the enemy doesn't move is not advisable. Right now, we should take one step and see what happens next, and then take one step and see what happens next."

"Now that the issue between you and Yu Heng has been resolved, the rest will naturally fall into place. He has the support of a long-standing Xuanmen family, and he has a golden body to protect him. Even if he is not your husband yet, he has received 60 million taels of silver from you, so shouldn't he do something to protect you?"

"If the enemy comes, we will fight him. If the water comes, we will block it with earth. If that person really wants to attack us, we will be unable to defend ourselves. So you don't need to worry too much. The best strategy is to turn the passive situation into the active one."
