European Emperor Cultivation System

Chapter 123 Return early
"dong dong dong"

A crisp knock on the door broke the silence of dawn.

Li Peijun slept well last night. After all, he was out of sight and out of mind. He just lay on the hard floor all night. Not to mention the pain in his muscles and bones, his body also caught a cold.

"Is it Your Excellency Possang?" Li Peijun straightened his back, and massaged his dizzy head again. After the chill of the whole night came down, there was some turbulence in his head, and he couldn't concentrate for a while.

"Ah, hell, I really caught a cold." Li Peijun covered his mouth and nose and complained, even his voice was thick and nasal.

"That's right, it's me, Lord Lord." A familiar voice came from outside the door, and it was indeed Paissant's voice.

Li Peijun was just about to open the door, but his hand was already on the doorknob, but he looked at Socia who was still sleeping behind him, thinking that it seemed a little inappropriate for a man to rush in, so he refused. : "I want to rest for a while, you go and pack your luggage first."

"Okay, this subordinate will go now." With light steps, Possant walked back to his couch.

Li Peijun was sitting with his back against the wall, his hands resting flat on his knees. The morning sun was shining, and a bit of warmth penetrated through the cracks in the wall between the oak boards, waking up Socia in her sleep.

First he spread his hands lazily, and then brushed the disheveled hair behind him with one hand. Under the reflection of the brush light, Socia's profile was clearly outlined, and sporadic strands of hair lingered in his ears. Finally, paired with a maroon robe, like a witch in a dense forest.

As if noticing that someone had been staring at her, Socia turned her head and smiled, "What? The vision is dim at night and I can't see clearly. Now that the light is better, look at me, do you regret it?"

"Ah, no, I thought you were a calm and calm woman before, but I prefer to call it cold, but now I think you are no different from an ordinary woman." Li Peijun said calmly, Follow the trend.

"Get up, I know you haven't slept so comfortably for a long time, but we have to hurry today, and when we return to the fief, you can sleep from early to late all day."

Listening to Li Peijun's voice, Socia also noticed something strange, "Are you feeling unwell, did you catch a cold last night?"

Li Peijun took a tentative breath, his nose seemed to be a little stuffy, but he still said bravely: "It's nothing, it's just a minor illness, it will be fine in two days."

Socia didn't think so, "Fengchi is not a minor problem, we should pay more attention, or..."

Before Socia could speak, Li Peijun quickly waved his hand, "I won't do bloodletting even if I'm killed. Every time I finish the bloodletting, it's like killing half my life."

In the Middle Ages, there were no medical and sanitary conditions at all. There were only two options for getting sick, bloodletting and praying, and there was no difference in essence.If you are cured, it is only because your own immune system is working. If you are unfortunate enough to die, the church will also bless you to go to heaven after death.

Li Peijun is not worried at all. The system's built-in self-healing function can repair non-fatal wounds. Wind and cold are not a problem. After all, he is a man who has been on the operating table before. He has a small cold. I don't mind anything at all.

"Trust me, I'm fine, ahh." Li Peijun's consciousness was still in a trance, but he still tried his best to keep himself focused.

Just when he was about to open the door, Li Peijun seemed to realize that he had something to explain, so he retracted his hand hanging in the air, turned his head and said, "Wait a minute, remember to stay with me all the time. Noble gentlemen with horns are no good."

"Oh." Socia nodded slightly, reserved and steady.

Pushing open the door, Possant had already been waiting outside the door for a long time, saluting and saying: "The luggage has been packed, ready to leave at any time."

Li Peijun nodded in satisfaction. Since he took office, Possang has hardly found any faults in his work, and he can be called his right-hand man. "Okay, let's call those nobles, where are we going at the next stop?"

"If everything is settled, you can go to Hastings in advance to take a boat back. The caravan ships have been parked there. If the lord has something to do, Possant is willing to plan the route for you, but at the end It’s better not to be too far away from the port, so as not to delay the trip.”

Possant replied earnestly, giving out two options that can be operated in a specific and efficient manner. Thanks to the presence of Possant on this journey, he will save a lot of worry along the way, and someone will take care of him for basic necessities of life.

"Well, sneeze, it seems that what should be done is almost done, let's return early." Li Peijun couldn't stop sneezing halfway through his words, and hurriedly covered his mouth and nose with his hands to maintain his posture.

The aristocratic envoys were also in good spirits, and they did not do any serious business during this trip. Except for a few symbolic diplomatic terms with the King of England yesterday, the rest of the time was spent playing and having fun. Li Peijun didn't know if they were on a business trip at public expense. .

"Good morning, everyone. If you have nothing else to do, we will go to Hastings Port today and return early." Li Peijun greeted warmly, and told today's itinerary.

The head of the group, Stanley, replied: "Good morning, Your Excellency Bruno, all our affairs are now settled, and we can return early."

Looking behind him again, he sought the opinions of the nobles, and everyone nodded in unison, except for Tas with an expression of unsatisfactory expression.

"What's the matter, is there anything else?" The head of the group looked at the only alternative and asked why.

"This woman hasn't had enough fun yet. I'm not willing to go back now. I'll be playing for two more days." Tas licked his rough lips, and he had lewd eyes again, and he didn't know that he was fantasizing wearing something.

Li Peijun was sweating in his heart, "This guy had a lot of fun yesterday. Why is he still so strong today? I'm afraid he will burn himself in the fire."

Those free eyeballs noticed the woman behind Li Peijun, and Tas yelled like a boar in heat and mating: "Your Excellency Bruno, I didn't expect that the good family you brought back yesterday is quite beautiful, do you want to..."

"Go away, I warn you, don't get her idea, otherwise, ah sneeze." Li Peijun blocked Socia behind, staring at the pair of drooling eyes, with his hand on the scabbard, always ready.

"Okay, okay, you too, Tess, you can't take what others like, there are a lot of English women, and if you have good looks and skills, there are a lot of them, right, there are also a lot of folk women in Hastings, There must be something you like." Seeing this, Dorrent, the peacemaker, came up to persuade him to fight.

The head of the group, Stanley, also stepped forward, "Tess, Your Excellency Bruno has contributed a lot this time, there are so many women in England, which one do you want to see outside, tell me, and I will grab it for you."

Everyone spoke to ease the tense atmosphere, and Tas had no choice but to let it go.

"Socia, let's go." Li Peijun breathed a sigh of relief, and dragged Socia's wrist to go out first.

"They, what did you say just now?" The vocabulary Socia knew was only some everyday expressions. These guys had half a sentence full of obscene words, and with their strong accents, it was normal for them not to understand.

Li Peijun smiled in relief. The discomfort of a cold made him not want to say too much, "You can tell by looking at their eyes and guessing."

Recalling the previous scene, Socia lowered her head shyly, with a blush on her face again.

　I forgot to mention in the previous chapter that there is no specific statement about adulthood in the Middle Ages. According to the calculation that men can go to battle at the age of 56, women should be roughly between 12-14 years old. After all, the average life expectancy was 30 years old at that time, and adulthood was almost half a lifetime. up
