Sorry, I am still number one in the world [Comprehensive]

After returning from Wuming Island, Nanwang's guards came to look for Yan Liushuang again.

Nan Wang meant that he wanted to take this nephew to Nan Wang's mansion, so that it would be more convenient for their father and son to meet when King Taiping came from the capital.

He told Gong Jiu about this idea, and Gong Jiu only replied to Uncle Wang: "I will be where my master is."

Nan Wang had no choice but to send someone to discuss with Yan Liushuang.

He showed great sincerity, and after sending guards here but Yan Liushuang rejected him, he went to visit Yan's house in person, trying to persuade her to take Gong Jiu to Nanwang's mansion for a temporary stay.

Yan Liushuang is not stupid, she can understand the wooing meaning in the prince's words, that tone is too familiar, she has heard it too many times in the previous two lifetimes.

But to be honest, she has nothing to rely on the court and Nan Wang, so she remains unmoved by Nan Wang's flattery.

"Xiao Jiu is used to living in my house." She said, "And it's clean here, which is more suitable for him to practice swords in peace than the palace."

"I understand, I understand." Nan Wang nodded and said, "Miss Yan loves her apprentice very much, I understand, but Xiao Jiu is also my nephew. Before his father comes, I as an uncle must take good care of him."

Yan Liushuang doesn't like to hear these words, what does it mean to take good care of her? Does he mean that Gong Jiu is not well taken care of here?

But she didn't get angry directly, she just said lightly: "Then the prince will ask Xiao Jiu, if he is willing, I have no objection."

Nan Wang was very troubled by the behavior of their master and apprentice playing football with each other, but now he wanted to play a gentle and amiable good uncle on the surface, so he could only leave embarrassingly.

Before leaving, he seemed to think of something and asked Yan Liushuang: "By the way, I wonder if Miss Yan still accepts apprentices?"

Yan Liushuang: "...???"

Nan Wang took a deep breath and said, "I have a son who is one year younger than Xiaojiu. He wandered outside with me and learned some superficial kung fu. I have always wanted to find a master for him. If Miss Yan still accepts apprentices If so... I thought it would be good for their cousins ​​to practice martial arts together?"

Yan Liushuang was silent for a moment, and said that I no longer accept apprentices.

Nan Wang was not unhappy because of this, he smiled and said: "Since that's the case, I don't want to force Miss Yan, Miss Yan should just pretend that I haven't mentioned this matter."

She thought for a while, and said: "But if the prince is relieved to send the son to be with Xiaojiu, I can give some pointers."

Nan Wang responded immediately: "That is the best!"

After learning that a cousin whom he had never met would come to practice martial arts with him, Gong Jiu was very upset.

He hated his father, so he didn't even have a good impression of Nan Wang, his uncle. Now that Nan Wang even sent a share to Yan Liushuang's son who cared about him, he was of course even more resistant.

"I haven't seen him..." He complained to Yan Liushuang.

"Okay, the lord probably wants you to have a companion." Yan Liushuang patted his head to comfort him, "Don't you just think girls are troublesome?"

Gong Jiu: "..."

He said so, but it was because he was worried that the beef soup guy would be accepted as an apprentice by Yan Liushuang after staying in the Yan family!

It turned out to be better now, not only did the beef soup not leave, but another one had to come.

What kind of experience is it like to suddenly have two chatty children in a place that has always been deserted?

For Gong Jiu, life would be worse than death.

Especially the cousin Nanwang Shizi who appeared out of nowhere, as if he didn't feel his dislike at all, since the first day he came here, he has been pestering him all day long asking questions, answering his brother's good and bad, and chasing him down. Can't drive away either.

Gong Jiu really wanted him to stay away from her, but no matter what he said, Prince Nan always had the attitude of "my cousin is amazing".

Yan Liushuang was happy to see the results, and said: "After he came, you have more expressions than before, which is very good."

Gong Jiu: They are all angry.

Compared with Prince Nan, the beef soup that stayed here because he had nowhere to go was much more pleasing to the eye.

She seldom talked to Gong Jiu, and more often she practiced by herself by the sea and thought about it.

Gong Jiu saw her kung fu several times from a distance, and found that she was much smarter than Prince Nan, so he began to try to throw Prince Nan, who was pestering him all day, to the beef soup, saying: "Wait for you Come find me after you beat her."

The son of the Southern Prince went there with confidence, but of course he was beaten by beef soup and couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north, and south.

Gong Jiu was very happy.

Yan Liushuang saw all this, and suddenly felt that it was a good idea to leave the beef soup and let the prince of Nan come over for a temporary stay.

But when she talked to Yan Feng, Yan Feng rolled his eyes at her directly: "Yeah, so you have more chances to sneak to see Ye Gucheng, right?"

"..." She couldn't refute.

"Honestly, when is he going to come to our house to propose marriage?" Yan Feng suddenly straightened his expression and said, "Don't tell me that it's all like this and he doesn't plan to marry you?"

Yan Liushuang didn't quite understand: "Wait, what do you mean?"

Yan Feng rolled his eyes again, then pulled her directly to the beach, and said, "Look down and see what's on your neck?"

Yan Liushuang: "..."

Seeing Yan Feng's expression, she decisively swallowed that sentence back.

In fact, she always felt that the relationship between her and Ye Gucheng did not need to be married to maintain it. In addition, the two of them have been very busy in the past few years, so they didn't have a good talk about this topic.

But now it seems that there is still such a ceremony to reassure the family.

So after a moment of silence, she said to Yan Feng: "That's fine, I'll discuss it with him."

Yan Feng exploded immediately: "You still need to mention this kind of thing to him, I think he deserves to be beaten again!"

Yan Liushuang calmly reminded him: "With all due respect, you don't seem to be able to beat him."

At this point in the conversation, Yan Feng started yelling at her to bend her elbows as before.

She explained dumbfoundingly: "Brother, you really misunderstood, he told me before."

Yan Feng was puzzled: "Then why hasn't he come to propose marriage?"

Yan Liushuang bent his eyes and said, "If he doesn't prepare well, won't he be despised by you again?"

When the brothers and sisters finished talking, Yan Feng finally looked better.

But he was still habitually stubborn in front of Yan Liushuang: "Alright, since he's not responsible for everything, I won't settle the score with him."

Yan Liushuang nodded again and again: "Well, I thank you on his behalf."

Yan Feng stared at her angrily.

But compared to getting married, which still needs careful planning, the most important thing right now is that Gong Jiu's biological father, King Taiping, will soon arrive in the South China Sea.

Regardless of his status as a prince, he is the father of Yan Liushuang's only apprentice in this world after all, so after receiving the news from the Nanwangfu, Yan Liushuang was a little nervous.

She was still not sure what happened that year, so she couldn't help worrying about Gong Jiu who was full of hatred for her father.

But no matter how worried she was, when the Chinese New Year was approaching, King Taiping still arrived.

Before that, Gong Jiu had been very calm, but when they were really about to meet, he pulled her sleeve to confirm with her three times: "Will Master stand by my side?"

Yan Liushuang said it was of course, but if there was a misunderstanding, it was time to untangle it.

Gong Jiu lowered his eyes and said: "There is no misunderstanding, I saw it with my own eyes."

Afterwards, their father and son met in the banquet hall of the Yan family.

King Taiping was much older than Yan Liushuang imagined, and even more haggard than King Nan who was older than him. You must know that King Nan had been wandering abroad for ten years and experienced countless vicissitudes.

When he saw Gong Jiu, he stood up almost instantly, tears poured out of his cloudy eyes, and he couldn't even speak for a while.

In the end, it was Nan Wang who spoke for him.

Nan Wang said to Gong Jiu: "Your father has been looking for you for five years, this time I heard that I met you in the South China Sea, so I rushed here day and night, hoping to see you sooner."

Gong Jiu was indifferent: "Really?"

King Taiping probably didn't expect his son to react like this when he saw him. He was a little at a loss and embarrassed. After a while, he calmed down and called Xiao Jiu.

This cry was so sad that Yan Liushuang felt a little uncomfortable hearing it.

She couldn't help thinking, would such a father really kill his wife with his own hands?

It's not easy to ask these doubts in front of King Nan, but since King Taiping came, she felt that she had to ask clearly about the past.

She was still thinking about how to ask, but Gong Jiu actually spoke first: "Don't call me Xiao Jiu."

King Taiping's face froze, and then he turned to King Nan and Yan Liushuang, and said, "I have something I want to say to Xiao Jiu alone, I wonder if Brother Wang and Miss Yan can make it easier for me?"

Nan Wang had no objection, stood up directly and said: "Yes, you father and son finally met each other, so you should say a few words alone."

But Yan Liushuang was a little embarrassed, because Gong Jiu was still holding her hand tightly and refused to let go.

Gong Jiu said: "Master will stay here."

Seeing this, King Taiping didn't force it, and nodded after a short pause: "That's fine, Miss Yan, let's listen together."

In this way, Yan Liushuang stayed in the banquet hall, she shook Gong Jiu's hand back, and wanted him not to be afraid.

There were only three of them left in the huge banquet hall.

King Taiping, who was not yet forty, looked at his son whom he had been looking for for five years, heaved a long sigh, and then spoke slowly.

He told a very simple story.

The protagonist of the story is an idle prince who has no ambitions since he was a child, and a girl of a different race who wants to steal court secrets through this idle prince.

The girl lied to the prince, but the prince really liked the girl.

Later they got married, the girl became a princess and gave birth to a child for the prince.

The days should have gone on so peacefully and smoothly, but in an accident, the prince discovered that his wife had been secretly recording the official documents of the court in his study.

Although he is an idle prince, he can also get in touch with many important affairs in the court. He never thought that the person next to his pillow would write down all those things, let alone that she was actually a spy from a certain country.

After discovering this incident, he was very tormented, and he didn't know how to deal with it.Although his wife lied to him, she really fell in love with him after getting along for so many years.

She understood his suffering, and she took the initiative to drink the poisoned wine in order to prevent him from being indecisive and continue to conflict.

"Your mother..." King Taiping broke down in tears at this point, "She said she only hoped that I could take good care of you..."

"It's impossible!" Gong Jiu stood up, "You must be lying to me!"

Seeing that he was so excited, Yan Liushuang quickly held him down and said, "Xiao Jiu, don't worry."

King Taiping wiped away his tears and continued: "I know it's hard for you to accept it for a while, and I was the same way back then, but..."

Gong Jiu wanted to say something more, but he took out a letter from his arms and handed it over.

He said: "This is a letter from your mother. I originally thought that I would tell you about it when you grow up, but you saw it early in the morning."

Stories can be made up, but handwriting is not so easy to imitate, not to mention the handwriting on this letter looks like it has been written for many years.

Gong Jiu knew his mother's handwriting, and could confirm at a glance that it was indeed written by his mother herself.

As for the content of the letter, it was almost the same as the story that King Taiping told just now, except that there was a sentence at the end of the letter telling him not to hate her.

Yan Liushuang didn't read the letter, but she understood everything after seeing Gong Jiu's reaction after reading it.

She stretched out her hand to pull the apprentice into her arms, and then patted his shoulder lightly.

Gong Jiu was trembling all over at first, but after being slapped like this by her, she seemed to finally react.He cried silently in her arms.

"She also left a lot of things for you." Taiping Wang whispered, "I came in a hurry and couldn't take it with me. If you still want to go home..."

Even if the misunderstanding is resolved, he doesn't have the confidence that his son will definitely go back with him, so when it comes to this, he can't continue.

And Gong Jiu cried in Yan Liushuang's arms for a long time before raising his head.

He opened his mouth, and after a while he said: "...OK."

King Taiping could hardly believe it: "Really?"

He turned his face away, looked at Yan Liushuang with a calm expression, and suddenly said, "Master...can Master accompany me back?"

Yan Liushuang has been in this world for 20 years and has never been out of the South China Sea.

She doesn't mind going back with her apprentice, but the capital is too far away, so she can't just leave.

So after hesitating for a moment, she said, "I'll tell my family first."

Said it was at home, but in fact, apart from her father and brother, she had to go to Feixian Island to discuss with Ye Gucheng.

Ye Gucheng was surprised when he learned that she was going home with his apprentice: "Is he willing to go back?"

She pursed her lips: "The misunderstanding between their father and son has been resolved."

In all fairness, Ye Gucheng didn't want her to go, but he also knew that it was impossible not to go with her dedication to Gong Jiu, so he just nodded in the end: "That's also good."

Yan Liushuang guessed what he was thinking, so she crossed his desk and hugged him, trying to make him less unhappy in this way.

But the usual method of trying all kinds of Bailing didn't seem to work at this moment, and he didn't even hug him back.

"It's just a trip to the capital." She softened her tone and whispered in his ear, "Wait for me to come back?"

"Yeah." He deserved it reluctantly.

"I haven't finished yet." She continued, "When I come back, remember to go to my house to propose marriage."

"...Okay." This time he smiled, and finally raised his hand to wrap around her waist.
