As Zhao Shuangxi's godfather, Li Luo's mind is still a little confused, and he doesn't understand what's going on.

Li Luo thought for a while, then said wittily: "Old housekeeper, please take that child to my room."

"Alright, Mr. Li." The old butler said.

The old housekeeper quickly left the room, Li Luo originally wanted to feed the porridge spoonful by spoonful to the cute Xiao Yingying, to show his tenderness.

But Xie Changying was serious, he didn't need anyone to feed him at all, he had already picked up the porridge bowl, and drank it in a respectful manner, neither saying it was tasteless nor bland, he looked very obedient.

Li Luo looked at Xie Changying a little helplessly, and simply said, "Drink the porridge well, and then sleep, you don't have to study today, you understand?"

Xie Changying nodded and said, "Understood, Master."

Li Luo instructed: "Take a good rest and listen to Master's words, otherwise Master will punish you!"

Speaking of punishment, Li Luo suddenly laughed, and the way he laughed made his hair stand on end.

Xie Changying's little hands holding the porridge bowl trembled, her expression a little stiff.

Li Luo felt that he was 100% right, Xiao Yingying actually blushed!

Li Luo smiled and thought, it's terrible, it seems that he has charm for Xiao Yingying, so he can rest assured.

Li Luo said again: "Then master will leave for a while, please be good."

He was going to meet his "adopted son" and wanted to find out what was going on, so he couldn't accompany Xie Changying for the time being.

Li Luo could also see that Xie Changying was very guarded against him, if he stared at Xie Changying for a moment while eating, he might be uneasy about eating this bowl of porridge, and something would happen to him.

Li Luo waved to Xie Changying, then left the room and closed the door for him to prevent the cold air from leaking in.

The old butler had already brought the child to Li Luo's room and asked the child to wait alone. After Li Luo left Xie Changying's courtyard, he went straight back to his room. When he opened the door, he saw a small figure , Standing in the room well-behaved and obediently.

Not long after Li Luo left, Xie Changying was about to finish a bowl of porridge.He was sitting on the bed, holding a porridge bowl, his bright black eyes rolling around.

Suddenly, Xie Changying put the porridge bowl aside, turned over, her small body was extremely nimble, and jumped out of bed, put on two pieces of clothes for herself, and put on a big cloak, and then went straight to the bed. out of the room.

When Xie Changying walked out of the room, there was no sign of Li Luo outside, but it didn't matter, Xie Changying knew where Li Luo lived, so he walked there easily.

Li Luo pushed open the door, and saw a little boy, who was a bit older than Xie Changying, but just like Xie Changying, he looked rigid and very quiet.

When the little boy saw Li Luo, he was not surprised at all, and there was no sense of surprise on his face, he saluted politely and said, "Father."

Li Luo looked at the little boy up and down, left, right, left, right, and back and forth. Although the little boy hasn't grown yet, Li Luo can be sure that this little boy is really Zhao Shuangxi.

Li Luo called him tentatively: "Zhao Shuangxi?"

The little boy agreed and said, "Yes, foster father. What orders does foster father have?"

When Zhao Shuangxi spoke, his voice was as gentle as he had grown up, but Li Luo heard it in his ears, like the voice of a robot, without a trace of warmth.

He has a pair of bright eyes, the whites of which are clearly revealing the azure blue of a child, but they are very dull, like a little doll.

Li Luo frowned, feeling that the current situation was a bit strange.

Seeing that Li Luo didn't speak again, Zhao Shuangxi took out a stack of rice paper or something from his bosom, handed it to Li Luo politely, and said, "Please take a look at it, it's all for this month, Shuangxi The brook was brought for the adoptive father."

Curiously, Li Luo picked it up and took a look. It wasn't some rice paper, but a stack of bank notes, each of which was worth a huge amount. With such a thick stack, Li Luo felt dizzy and felt dizzy when he saw it. Once you change your body, you will become a land rich man.

"This is……"

Li Luo stared at Zhao Shuangxi again, what's going on?A child brought so many silver bills to himself, where did he get the silver bills?

The old butler also said before that Zhao Shuangxi would come almost every month, so could it be that he brought so many banknotes with him every month?

Zhao Shuangxi didn't know what Li Luo meant, and seemed a little uncertain.

Li Luo obviously saw Zhao Shuangxi took a step back slightly, and seemed to be trembling all over, looking very scared and not to be outdone.

Zhao Shuangxi lowered her head, bit her immature lips, and said, "Mr. Wu said that the business has not been very good recently, so there are only so many this month. Please foster father...don't be angry."

At the end of Zhao Shuangxi's speech, the ending trembled a little, and she sounded very scared, as if she was afraid that Li Luo would suddenly raise her hand to hit him if she didn't like it.

"Mr. Wu..."

Li Luo was even more surprised. It turned out that Mr. Wu gave him money every month, but who was Mr. Wu?

"Shuangxi," Li Luo made himself look gentle, and said, "Have you had breakfast? Are you hungry?"

Zhao Shuangxi looked up at him suspiciously and shook her head.

I don't know if he is not hungry or he hasn't eaten breakfast, anyway, Li Luo immediately stood up, went outside and called the servants to send two early meals, Li Luo happened to have not had breakfast either.

Soon the breakfast was brought, Li Luo took it, put it on the table by himself, and said to Zhao Shuangxi: "Come, let's eat together."

Zhao Shuangxi nodded obediently, sat down and began to eat in silence without saying a word.

Li Luo sneaked a few glances at him, thinking about how to strike up a conversation.It was a strange discovery.

Zhao Shuangxi held his chopsticks to eat breakfast, and it was inevitable to reach out to pick up vegetables. As soon as he stretched out his hand, the sleeves became shorter, and Zhao Shuangxi's fair wrist was exposed.

Li Luo frowned, he saw that there were many wounds on Zhao Shuangxi's wrists, some had scabs, some were still red and swollen, new and old wounds combined, it could be said that his body was bruised and bruised.

"Shuangxi?"

Li Luo put down his chopsticks and said, "Are you injured?"

Shocked, Zhao Shuangxi hurriedly put down her chopsticks and tidied up her sleeves, her two little hands were tucked into the sleeves, not daring to show them at all.

Zhao Shuangxi lowered her head and said nothing, looking very conflicted.

Li Luo simply grabbed Zhao Shuangxi's arm and pulled up his sleeve forcefully.At that moment Li Luo couldn't hold it back, he gasped, and saw that Zhao Shuangxi's fair little arms were also covered with wounds, some seemed to be cuts, some seemed to be wounds from whips, a mixture of old and new, Overlapping.

Li Luo was immediately annoyed, Zhao Shuangxi was still a child, how could someone do such a cruel thing to a child?

"Don't be afraid." Li Luo felt Zhao Shuangxi's resistance, and he seemed to want to withdraw his hands.

Li Luo even heard Zhao Shuangxi whisper: "Don't hit me..."

Li Luo said in a gentle voice, "Don't be afraid, I won't hit you, I didn't intend to hit you. Does it hurt? I'll give you some medicine, it won't hurt after taking the medicine."

Zhao Shuangxi seemed to be still very scared, and shook his head with his head down.

"It won't get better if you don't take the medicine, and you can see that it's all swollen. If you don't take the medicine, it will get worse." Li Luo said.

Although Zhao Shuangxi didn't want to take the medicine, she didn't dare to disobey Li Luo's wishes, so she could only sit on the chair obediently.

Li Luo stopped eating, quickly took the medicine box, took out the ointment from inside, and began to carefully apply Zhao Shuangxi's wound.

Not only his arms, but also his whole body was covered with scars, and probably only his face was free of wounds, probably because he was afraid of being seen by others and discovering something.

Li Luo was so angry that he said softly, "Shuangxi, tell foster father, who beat you?"

After Li Luo asked, his heart suddenly felt a little bit drummed, thinking that it could be the murderous hand of his former self?Zhao Shuangxi looked quite afraid of herself.

Zhao Shuangxi looked up at Li Luo, Li Luo almost thought it was really her.

Immediately, Zhao Shuangxi said in a low voice: "Yes...it is Mr. Wu."

"Mr. Wu?" Li Luo frowned, so it was Mr. Wu who asked Zhao Shuangxi to send bank notes every month?I don't know who this Mr. Wu is.

Li Luo gently applied the medicine to Zhao Shuangxi, and made some clichés while applying the medicine.

Zhao Shuangxi was very scared and nervous at first, but slowly, it seemed that Li Luo finally softened her. After all, she was only a child, so she let down her vigilance.

Speaking of Mr. Wu, Li Luo didn't expect that it was someone he knew.

Mr. Wu is a businessman, and there is a Wu family villa in a small place not far from the capital.Mr. Wu's wife is very rich, and they have a son named Wu Jincai!

"So it's Mr. Wu..."

Li Luo suddenly realized, how could he forget what happened in Wu's villa?Both Xie Tang and Wu Jincai were abused in the Wu Family Villa.That Mr. Wu can be said to be a frenzied person, but fortunately he was forced to hang himself in the end, which can be regarded as retribution.

But right now, Li Luo traveled back to 15 years ago. Thinking about it, Xie Tang should be only two or three years old now, and he probably hasn't been adopted by Wu's Villa yet.

What Li Luo never imagined was that this Zhao Shuangxi also came from the Wu family villa, and was also abused by Master Wu.

Li Luo felt more and more that Zhao Shuangxi was not easy. Thinking back, they were able to enter the Wu Family Villa because Zhao Shuangxi sold them invitations. It seemed that everything was Zhao Shuangxi's plan.

"This Mr. Wu," Li Luo said in a low voice, "It's really not a pity to die. I don't know how many people have been harmed."

Mr. Wu is in business, although he has become very rich now, but his connections are still a little less powerful.Mr. Wu wants to enter the capital to do business without contacts, so he established a relationship with the Mr. Yingchuan Prince's Mansion, intending to bribe Li Luo, and asked Li Luo to make various connections for him.

As for Zhao Shuangxi, in order not to attract people's attention, Mr. Wu made Zhao Shuangxi Li Luo's adoptive son, and sent him a lot of money every month.

Li Luo carefully smeared Zhao Shuangxi's wound, for fear of hurting him, he asked from time to time: "Does it hurt? Tell me if it hurts, and I will take it easy."

Zhao Shuangxi nodded and said nothing.He didn't dare to look at Li Luo directly, but his eyes were full of doubts.

Zhao Shuangxi was very confused, she didn't know why today's adoptive father seemed to be a different person.

While Li Luo was applying medicine to Zhao Shuangxi, an unexpected visitor came to the yard, wasn't it the little Xie Changying?

Xie Changying was wearing a cloak, and came here by himself like a thief. He slipped into the courtyard, his movements were quite dexterous, and then ran along the wall to the outside of Li Luo's room.

He was a little short, and he couldn't see what was going on inside the window with his feet padded, so he had to move a flowerpot, step on the flowerpot to climb up to the window, stick it on the window, and peep in secretly.

Xie Changying saw Master Li Luo and Master's adopted son at a glance. The two of them didn't know what they were doing.Xie Changying took another look and was startled, because Zhao Shuangxi's body was covered with scars, which made her look a little scary.

Speaking of which, Xie Changying also had a lot of scars, left over from practicing martial arts and swordsmanship, he never cried out in pain, but comparing those scars with Zhao Shuangxi's, they were inexplicably not worth mentioning.

Li Luo was administering medicine to Zhao Shuangxi, and Li Luo had also administered medicine to Xie Changying before, and Xie Changying was no stranger to this, but now Li Luo was more careful and gentle with Zhao Shuangxi's actions.

I heard Li Luo inside say: "Shuangxi is so good, she doesn't even complain of pain, the medicine will be applied soon, Shuangxi is so good, what reward do you want?"

Zhao Shuangxi didn't answer immediately, but looked at Li Luo cautiously.

When Xie Changying outside the window heard this, his small face immediately froze. He still couldn't hide his emotions and anger, and now the words "Unhappy, I'm very angry" were written all over his face.

Little Xie Changying thought to herself, isn't Master treating them differently?Why punish yourself?And rewards should be given to this child?This is too unfair!

Zhao Shuangxi said in a low voice: "Shuangxi dare not ask for a reward."

Li Luo smiled and said, "Otherwise, reward Shuangxi to stay with her adoptive father and accompany her adoptive father every day! In this way, Shuangxi doesn't have to go back to the Wu Family Villa, how about following her adoptive father all the time? The foster father promises I will give you delicious food every day, and I will not let others bully you, and I will protect you well."

Zhao Shuangxi's eyes widened, and finally she no longer had a calm expression on her face, she looked at Li Luo in disbelief, completely unable to guess what Li Luo was thinking now.

In fact, Xie Changying outside the window couldn't figure out what Li Luo was thinking. Before, Master also said to protect him, Xie Changying was very puzzled, but somehow moved.But now?

Xie Changying lay on the window angrily, thinking that Master is a big fool!Why do you say these two words to every child, saying that you will protect him well.

Xie Changying didn't know what to think, anyway, she felt uncomfortable for a while, and the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became.

Xie Changying got angry, her little thin face was puffed up, her cheeks puffed out, and she jumped from the window, thinking that if she didn't look at it, she'd better go back!

"Click-"

Xie Changying jumped down and accidentally kicked the flowerpot down, making a lot of noise.

"ah--"

At the same time, Xie Changying let out a low cry. He quickly endured the pain and covered his small mouth with his hands.

The window was a bit high for Xie Changying, and Xie Changying jumped down in a moment of anger, not stepping on the small flowerpot, and accidentally sprained her foot, feeling a terrible pain.

Although the sound outside the window is not loud, the voice of a child is generally very penetrating.

Both Li Luo and Zhao Shuangxi could hear clearly, Zhao Shuangxi was taken aback and said, "Father, it seems that someone is watching us outside."

Li Luo immediately put clothes on Zhao Shuangxi, then stood up and walked quickly to open the window, and saw the kicked down small flower pot at a glance.

However, there were no uninvited guests beside the flowerpot, but there was a small figure at the gate of the courtyard, running extremely fast, but limping.

Li Luo only took one look, then shook his head with a smile, and said, "So it's Yingying, why did you come here to eavesdrop?"

Xie Changying limped back to the room, quickly threw down the cloak, took off all her clothes, and got into the bed, honestly, as if I didn't leave at all.

Sure enough, not long after, there was a "squeak", and someone pushed open the door of his room.Xie Changying immediately closed his eyes tightly, he didn't need to look to know, it must be the master who came to check!

It was indeed Li Luo who came, Li Luo walked in softly, and saw Xie Changying lying on the bed pretending to sleep.

Although Xie Changying had her eyes closed, her eyelashes were trembling violently, and her small chest under the quilt was also heaving rapidly. It must be because she was running so fast that she was still panting heavily.

Li Luo smiled silently, thinking that my family Yingying is too cute, so cute that it's a foul.

He remained calm, walked to Xie Changying's bed and sat down, reached out and touched Xie Changying's exposed little hand.

It was cool, and as soon as I touched it, I knew that Xie Changying had been running outside for a long time, and went for a walk outside when she just fell ill, probably because she felt that her fever was not serious.

Li Luo shook his head helplessly. He really wanted to teach Xie Changying a lesson, but he couldn't bear it. Sure enough, good looks are justice.

Li Luo put Xie Changying's little hand under the quilt, trying to warm him up, but he didn't see through Xie Changying's trick of pretending to sleep.

Xie Changying was a little impatient, and kept beating drums in her heart, thinking that it would be too difficult to pretend that she was woken up, and it would be too difficult to pretend to be asleep.

"Well……"

Xie Changying made up his mind, rubbed his eyes, and began to wake up slowly.

He slowly opened his eyes, and sure enough, he saw Li Luo sitting on the side of the couch at a glance. Li Luo was looking at him very tenderly.

"Master..."

Xie Changying pretended to be sleepy and called out to Li Luo. The second half of the sentence was originally intended to say, Master, why are you here?

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and the little Xie Changying's eyes suddenly widened, and she couldn't hold it back and said, "Why is he here too?!"

It turned out that Li Luo didn't come to look for Xie Changying alone, and also brought a small oil bottle, wasn't it Zhao Shuangxi?

Zhao Shuangxi obediently followed Li Luo, standing not far from the bed, Xie Changying opened her eyes and saw Li Luo first, then Zhao Shuangxi.

Before talking about it, Xie Changying also met Zhao Shuangxi twice, but they didn't speak each time, and they didn't have much friendship.

Taking a closer look now, Xie Changying felt that he didn't like this little boy, and couldn't explain why.

Li Luo said with a smile: "Yingying, Master will introduce you, this is Master's son, named Zhao Shuangxi, from now on..."

Before Li Luo could finish speaking, Xie Changying had already asked, "Isn't he a adopted son? How did he become a son?"

"Yes." Li Luo nodded and said, "It's the adopted son, but there is no difference."

Li Luo continued to say indifferently: "Anyway, Shuangxi will live here with Master from now on, you should get along well, understand?"

Zhao Shuangxi nodded obediently at the side, and said: "It's the adoptive father, Shuangxi is older than the prince, and will definitely let the prince and take good care of the prince."

When Xie Changying heard this, she frowned sternly and said, "No need, this king will take care of himself. You're just older, so there's nothing special about it."

Li Luo blinked, glanced at Zhao Shuangxi to the left, and Xiao Yingying to the right, thinking that they couldn't deal with each other?Why does it seem that the first time we get along is not very pleasant?

"Haha," Li Luo laughed dryly and said, "Anyway, we have to live in harmony, do you understand?"

Zhao Shuangxi said obediently: "I know the adoptive father."

Xie Changying didn't speak, and looked suddenly sleepy. When he closed his eyes, he pretended to be asleep again.

Li Luo looked at Xie Changying's small appearance, and thought that Yingying was so cute, even when she was cheating.Could it be that my boyfriend's filter is too heavy?

Zhao Shuangxi suddenly wants to live in the palace, but this is also normal, after all, Zhao Shuangxi is Li Luo's adoptive son, and the adoptive son lives with the adoptive father, so no one else will say anything.

Xie Changying had been resting in bed for a few days. He felt that he was fine. However, Li Luo would not tell him to get out of bed, but would kiss him whenever he got out of bed. I have cultivated for several days.

This day, Xie Changying couldn't stay still any longer. Seeing that it was approaching noon, she reckoned that Master should still be teaching.

Xie Changying put on her clothes, walked out of the room with her hands behind her back, and walked towards the teaching place.

Sure enough, from a long distance away, one could hear a child stumbling and reciting, it was Shen Zhongming who was always very unfriendly to Xie Changying.

Li Luo stood in front of Shen Zhongming, and said earnestly, "Zhongming, tell me, you have memorized this text for a few days, why can't you memorize it? Master is so disappointed in you!"

"Master...Master." Shen Zhongming felt aggrieved.

Li Luo said with a stern face: "I can't recite it tomorrow, so the master can only talk to your parents."

"Master, don't want it!" Shen Zhongming trembled in fright.

Li Luo said: "Then look, how can the other children memorize it well? You are the only one who can't memorize it well, it means you have a problem with your attitude."

Shen Zhongming faltered, while the other children lowered their heads, for fear that the master would tell them to stand up and recite the book again.

On the other hand, Zhao Shuangxi was sitting in the corner with a straight pen, she looked like a good boy.

Zhao Shuangxi voluntarily stood up to recite the book, and what he recited was smooth, smooth and flowing, and he didn't type a typo or stutter. He was completely a good boy in the eyes of his parents and teachers.

Xie Changying didn't expect that as soon as he came over, he would see that annoying Zhao Shuangxi, and Master praised him severely!

Xie Changying was not convinced, so she simply left with her little hand behind her back, and went for a stroll elsewhere.

Li Luo didn't see Xie Changying coming, but saw the back of Xie Changying leaving.

Li Luo looked again, it was almost time, so he simply said: "Let's finish class, we'll be here today."

After he finished speaking, he was the first to run away, chasing after Xie Changying who had left.

Xie Changying walked forward with her hands behind her back, her whole body humming with anger, she didn't know why she was angry, anyway, she was just unhappy.

As he was walking, he suddenly exclaimed "Yeah", and inexplicably flew into the air, his body floated into the air, his two calves couldn't occupy the ground at all, and he collapsed twice in the air.

Xie Changying looked back and said in surprise, "Master? You...why did you pick me up?"

Li Luo caught up with Xie Changying, and picked up Xie Changying, who was like a grown-up, from the ground.

It's only four or five years old, and it's still very easy to hold, especially Xie Changying is not fat at all.

Li Luo hugged Xie Changying, really couldn't put it down, and said with a smile: "Yingying is still ill, Master is holding you, are you not happy?"

Xie Changying said, "Master, my illness has long been cured."

Li Luo said with a smile: "Master says it's not good, you are not good. You have to respect the teacher, otherwise the master will punish you."

Xie Changying was taken aback, and immediately covered her cheeks, for fear that Li Luo would kiss her.

Li Luo was amused and laughed out loud, leaning back and forth.

Xie Changying's cheeks turned red from his smile, she was a little embarrassed, and said, "Master, let me go down quickly."

Li Luo didn't force it either. Although Xie Changying hugged her like a doll, it was tiring after holding her for a long time.

Li Luo put him down, held his little fleshy hand, and said: "Come on, Yingying, Master will take you back to your room. It's just noon, how about having dinner with Master?"

Xie Changying had an awkward expression on his face, but he didn't refuse, he just said, "Master, don't you have to eat with your adopted son?"

That's all, Xie Changying inexplicably felt that there was something weird about these words, but he couldn't tell the specifics for a while.

Li Luo was taken aback when he heard it, and he also felt that the words were strange, because there was a faint sour smell in it.

Li Luo looked down at Xie Changying, couldn't help but smiled, nodded and said, "Yes, I almost forgot about Shuangxi, if I promised to have dinner with Shuangxi today, then Master will be leaving soon."

Xie Changying just said it casually just now, but she regretted it after she finished speaking.Hearing that Li Luo was leaving now, his actions were much quicker than his mind, and he grabbed Li Luo's hand with both hands, as if beating him to death and not telling him to leave.

Li Luo was teased by Xie Changying again, and the one who laughed leaned back, and asked, "Yingying, are you jealous?"

"Jealous?" Xie Changying still didn't understand this, and his face was full of confusion.

Li Luo pinched his little face, and said: "My family Yingying is so cute, Master's heart melts. Don't worry, Master just teased you, but today I didn't make an appointment with Shuangxi. Today, Master will accompany Yingying, okay? ? Master told Yingying to occupy it exclusively!"

Xie Changying's cheeks turned red inexplicably, and she didn't know why, but she felt a little happy when she heard Li Luo's words, but also a little awkward, and finally followed Li Luo, holding hands and walking towards the room.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!"

As soon as they reached the courtyard, they heard a sharp cry, which came from the courtyard, and because of the close distance, it was extremely harsh.

Xie Changying was so frightened that he trembled, Li Luo immediately picked him up, patted his back, and said, "It's nothing, Yingying, don't be afraid, Master is here."

Xie Changying nodded.

Li Luo immediately raised his voice and asked, "What's going on, you're yelling."

A servant girl who was busy in the yard suddenly yelled loudly, and then she seemed to faint from fright. Many servants rushed over to inquire, and there were a lot of people in the yard.

The old butler also rushed over, hurried over and said, "Sir, my lord, something... something happened!"

The weather is relatively cold now, and the flowers and plants planted in Xie Changying's yard have not bloomed, and they will not germinate until tomorrow spring or summer.Winter, when plants are not blooming, is a good time to dig deep into the soil.

The old housekeeper said: "For the past two days, the servants in the mansion have been digging the soil, and today they turned to the prince."

It turned out that the maid who screamed just now came to dig the soil, and there were several servants with her.They turned over the soil in Xie Changying's yard, preparing to plant some other flowers and plants in spring.

But who knew that after digging through the soil, they turned up a corpse from the soil, it was the corpse of a child, the maid screamed in fright, and passed out immediately.

"Corpse?"

"Is anyone dead?"

"Who's dead?"

At this moment, the children just had their lunch break, and they all ran over when they heard the noise, wanting to join in the fun.When they heard that there was a corpse, they were both scared and curious, and they poked their heads boldly, wanting to find out.

Li Luo can be considered someone who has seen big scenes, and said to the old housekeeper: "Send the children away first."

"Yes, Mr. Li." The old housekeeper said hastily.

The old butler called some servants and took the children away one after another, not asking them to join in the fun.

Li Luo looked at Xie Changying beside him, and said, "Yingying, go to Master's room and wait for Master first, okay?"

Xie Changying held Li Luo's hand, and didn't want to leave right now.To be honest, Xie Changying was also frightened.I heard that someone died in his yard, and someone was buried in the soil. I don't know what happened, but it is more terrifying than thunder in the dark sky.

After all, Xie Changying was a child of four or five years old, his face was already pale from fright, but he pretended to be calm.

Zhao Shuangxi also came and said, "Father, don't worry, I will take good care of the prince."

Xie Changying said unhappily: "No need, I will be obedient and wait for Master to come back."

"Yingying is really obedient." Li Luo stroked Xie Changying's hair and said, "Go quickly."

Xie Changying followed Zhao Shuangxi and left after turning her head three times. The two of them went to Li Luo's room to wait.

Li Luo walked towards the place where the accident happened.

The yard where the body was found was Xie Changying's yard, and the body was in the small garden behind Xie Changying's house.

The old butler said: "This small garden has been abandoned for a long time. I plan to plant some flowers in spring tomorrow. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen."

Li Luo followed the old housekeeper and walked there. Before reaching the small garden, the inexplicable Li Luo felt that the walls and trees in front of him were familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere...

As if seen in a dream.

Li Luo immediately thought of the strange dream he had a few days ago, he dreamed that he was holding a dagger in his hand, and the dagger was dripping blood.Immediately, Li Luo began to bury the pit inexplicably, and there was still a burst of bloody smell in the pit.

Li Luo frowned and looked around, the plants and trees in front of him were almost exactly the same as in the dream.The only difference is that the scene in the dream happened at night, and now the sun is shining brightly.

"This is it." The old butler said suddenly.

There is a small garden in front, the soil has been turned over, half turned over, because no one dared to move there because the body was found, so the turned over was half and half.

The old housekeeper seemed a little scared, and he didn't dare to go any further, but Li Luo didn't stop, and walked to the front of the pit.

He looked down and saw that the pit was not very deep, but a hand and half of his face had been dug out. It was indeed very scary at first glance, no wonder the maid was so frightened that she passed out.

It was the body of a child.

Li Luo frowned, he was about the same age as Xie Changying, only a four or five year old child.

With a calm expression, Li Luo said, "Bring a shovel and dig out this corpse first."

The corpse had been buried for an unknown amount of time, only part of it was exposed, so it looked like nothing could be seen clearly. Li Luo and a few courageous servants dug up the corpse.

The old housekeeper took a look from the side, and immediately said, "This...isn't this the son of the Shen family!"

"Young master of the Shen family?" Li Luo wondered.

The Shen family is a very powerful family in the court, Li Luo doesn't know much about the affairs of the court, but he is no stranger to the children of the Shen family, Shen Zhongming is one.

Relying on his family's wealth and career, Shen Zhongming didn't even look down on the prince Xie Changying, and took the children to bully Xie Changying every day to prove that he was even more powerful than the prince Xie Changying.

Li Luo was a master in Yingchuan Palace, not only teaching Xie Changying, but also teaching several other children.Speaking of which, those other children were all regarded as companions of King Yingchuan, and they were all chosen by the emperor himself for Xie Changying.

But Li Luo could also see that the emperor had no good intentions at all, knowing that those children bullied Xie Changying and didn't care.Li Luo felt that the emperor might have chosen these skinny children as companions on purpose, in order to make it difficult for Xie Changying.

Among the children taught by Li Luo, there is only one surnamed Shen, that is Shen Zhongming.

The old housekeeper said: "Sir, I forgot, he is Mr. Shen Zhongming's cousin. Although he doesn't study in the palace, he often comes to play with Mr. Shen Zhongming."

Sure enough, he is also a child of the Shen family, but not Li Luo's student.

Li Luo was just a time traveler, so he naturally didn't remember this young son of the Shen family.

The old housekeeper said: "This young son of the Shen family is called Shen Du, and he came to the palace a few days ago, and..."

The old housekeeper said half of what he said, and didn't say any more.

Shen Du and Shen Zhongming are in the same family, but Shen Zhongming's status is more noble, Shen Du is the bastard son of a side branch of the Shen family, so he always looks after Shen Zhongming, and always comes to please Shen Zhongming.

A few days ago Shen Du came to the palace again, specifically to give Shen Zhongming advice to tease Yingchuan King Xie Changying.

Li Luo frowned upon hearing this, and said, "And then?"

The old butler faltered and said, "Your Highness is fine."

When they were planning, Xie Changying just overheard.Relying on his cleverness, Shen Du wanted to set up some kind of mechanism to assassinate Xie Changying.

After Xie Changying heard about it, she naturally wouldn't let them succeed, so she simply resorted to tricks, and instead let Shen Du and Shen Zhongming's traps fall on their heads, and they suffered the consequences.

"At that time," the old housekeeper sighed, and said, "The two Mr. Shen were very angry, and Mr. Shen Du said very loudly that he was going to kill the prince or something..."

Shen Zhongming made a fool of himself because of Shen Du's little trap, his little followers all saw it, the children were not very old, and they couldn't hold back all of them laughed out loud, which made Shen Zhongming mad.

Shen Zhongming was angry, and naturally blamed the "culprit" Shen Du, scolding him was useless, the mechanism couldn't handle it well, said that he would not play with him anymore, and would complain to his father, and then left.

Shen Du was very angry when he was scolded, so he angrily threatened to kill Xie Changying and asked Xie Changying to wait.

Shen Du was stabbed to death by a dagger...

Seeing Shen Du's wound, Li Luo narrowed his eyes, and immediately thought of his dream...

In the dream, Li Luo was standing nearby, holding a bloody dagger in his hand.

Li Luo was a little confused for a while, couldn't it be a dream?Could it be the memory before "myself"?Could it be that "self" killed a child before time travelling?

The more Li Luo thought about it, the more he felt a headache. He had no way of knowing what happened before time travel. To be honest, it had nothing to do with him, and he didn't do it at all.But others would never think so.

"Something's wrong..."

Li Luo shook his head again, carefully staring at the wound on the corpse.Although it was true that the wound was caused by a sharp weapon, the wound was relatively small, while the dagger placed on the long table in his room was a bit too big.

Li Luo measured it with his hands, and the wound was indeed not quite right.

There was a dead body in Yingchuan Prince's Mansion, and the news spread quickly, and it was impossible to cover it up.
