Chapter 71 Missed out (1)

When Li Youde heard Chen Hui’s question clearly, he thought, sure enough. His face turned cold and he said, “Don’t blame me for not reminding you in advance. Get out of the carriage!”

Chen Hui stared at Li Youde and looked twice at him. Seeing that he didn’t intend to withdraw the order, she went to the door and knocked twice, “Ah Da, lord said to stop the carriage.”

The speed of the carriage wasn’t fast and was immediately stopped when they heard the call from the inside. When Chen Hui opened the door, she turned her head to look at Li Youde again.

Li Youde thought that she would act cute and beg for mercy; for example, saying things like, “Lord, this Lady Chen won’t ask anymore. Don’t drive this Lady Chen out of the carriage.” She is presumably so familiar with this already. He was also not a heartless person. If she begged for mercy, he would’ve reluctantly let her stay.

However, he had been disappointed. Not only did Chen Hui not beg for mercy, but she also gave him a big problem.

Chen Hui only stared fixedly at Li Youde and said, “Lord, this question is very important for this Lady Chen. If lord is willing to answer this Lady Chen, then lord can call this Lady Chen inside again.”

She jumped out of the carriage and followed at a side.

Because the carriage stopped, the Brocade Uniform Guards behind them also gradually stopped. They also didn’t care much when they saw a little eunuch come down the carriage. When the carriage started to move, they continued to follow.

Because the army was in the front, there were also people on foot in their team. So, they didn’t walk fast and Chen Hui was able to keep up at first.

Li Youde sat in the carriage for a while. Thinking about how tired Chen Hui, such a delicate person, would be walking among a group of coarse men, he felt very unwell and fidgety.

But thinking about what she said before she got out of the carriage, he couldn’t open his mouth to let her come in again.

He didn’t want to return to her question. He really has never seen such a bold and disobedient person. Wasn’t it enough that he was good to her and spoiled her? Why did she have to ask so much? Lady Jiang has been in his residence for two years already. She had never asked why he brought her into his residence; didn’t she also live well? He couldn’t answer her. If he told her that he quite likes her and regarded her as someone to pair food with, by then, it was unknown how undisciplined and out of control she would be! And it happened that he couldn’t punish her for acting recklessly. Where would his prestige be from then on in the residence? Now that she couldn’t figure out his thought, she would still be bluffed by a scolding and glare from him. Once she knows his true thoughts, the consequences would be disastrous!

Li Youde was very vexed. What kind of evil did he do in his previous life to encounter such a person in this life? But it happened that he took a fancy on her. Letting him give him, he wouldn’t be able to give up. When she had sneaked into Chrysanthemum Yard, he should’ve beaten her to death. Then, the troubles of today wouldn’t exist!

The more Li Youde thought about it, the more vexed he got. He stared at the door as if he could see Chen Hui walking outside through the door. He imagined her pale-face appearance staggering and imagined her being aggrieved and crying as she walked. The more he thought about it, the more sorrowful he got.

After hesitating for a while, he finally went to open the door of the carriage and looked aside, but Chen Hui was not seen beside the carriage.

“Where is Lady Chen?” Li Youde was startled and hurriedly asked Ah Da.

“Eh…” Ah Da was driving, Ah er hesitated for a moment and was a bit unable to speak.

“Where is she?!” Li Youde was really anxious. If it wasn’t because he was inside the carriage, he would’ve kicked the hesitant Ah Er.

“Be…Behind…,” Ah Er pointed at the back with a weeping face.

Li Youde held onto the door and turned his head, only to see Chen Hui follow next to a Brocade Uniform Guard. It was unknown what they were talking about. Both have smiles on their faces now and looked very into the conversation.

Li Youde’s face darkened immediately. He was worried that she would suffer and feel grievance, but look at her, she was hooking up with another man and looked very happy!

Chen Hui did follow next to the carriage in the beginning, but after walking for a while, her feet weren’t used to walking so much and couldn’t bear it. She could only slow down and hence fell into the group of Brocade Uniform Guards.

Chen Hui had always felt that the uniform of the Brocade Uniform Guards was very handsome. Plus, the fact that after she fell behind, the brother next to her was visually attractive, she could walk two steps taking one look. Hence, she hanged onto that place and didn’t shift from it.

“Hello, brother, what is your name?” Chen Hui spoke to the other party with a smile on her face.

She was now dressed similar to Ah Da and Ah Er like a eunuch, but she looked good, has a nice voice and a friendly attitude. In addition, that she sat together with Lord Li inside the carriage, the little Brocade Uniform Guard was also very polite to her.

“This little one’s surname is Lu,” He smiled.

Chen Hui said, “Brother Lu, how are you doing? My name is Little Monkey. It is a name given by lord. I know that you must be very confused now as to why lord gave me this name, right? Of course, it is because I’m clever and quick-witted. Lord likes me so much that he gave me such a nickname. Do you think it sounds nice?”

Brother Lu was dumbstruck for a moment before saying, “…Sounds nice.” Could he say that a name given by Lord Li doesn’t sound nice?

“Brother Lu, where are you from? Why did you join the Brocade Uniform Guards? How does it feel to go to the battlefield this time?” Chen Hui asked a series of questions curiously.

“I…I’m from the capital. I joined the Brocade Uniform Guards because…,” Brother Lu hesitated for a moment before saying, “It is my family who wanted me to join to be disciplined.”

Chen Hui said, “Wow, brother Lu, your family seems very great!”

She had heard that in some periods, the Brocade Uniform Guard was the favorite place for the second generations of officials and the powerful. There would be a lot of benefits to make. And this brother Lu, look at his soft skin and tender meat, he didn’t look like a child from a poor family his family should have some background.

“You flatter me,” Brother Lu was reluctant to talk about his family and said half-heartedly, “What about you?”

“Ay, my family is miserable,” Chen Hui sighed and said, “I lost my mother when I was one and my father when I was three. My cruel grandmother castrated me and sent me to the palace. She said that it was for my own good, but the life in the palace was not easy. I also suffered a lot of hardships before I came to Lord Li’s side…Aiya, Lord Li is such a good person. I received a lot of rewards after I came to his side. Piling them up, I can circle once around the carriage!”

Brother Lu didn’t know what he should say. He thought for half a day before saying, “Then, why did you come down the carriage?”

Chen Hui said with a smile, “I told lord that I was tired of sitting in the carriage all day long and wanted to walk around to move my muscles and bones. Lord said that it was good and so I got off the carriage.”

She looked at the black horse that brother Lu was riding and sighed with sorrow with an expression that she wanted to covet, “Brother Lu, your horse is not bad. Isn’t it very comfortable to ride?”

“…This is a stallion with a very fierce temper. If it wasn’t someone he is familiar with, no one can touch him,” Brother Lu said abruptly.

Chen Hui looked at him smilingly once, “Brother Lu, you are really interesting. It is not that I want to ride it. I just wanted to compliment you. At such times, you just have to smile.”

“…” Brother Lu showed a stiff smile on his face.

Chen Hui wanted to continue the pleasant chat with Brother Lu when she heard Li Youde’s annoyed shout from the front, “Little Monkey, roll over here!”

“Ay, lord!” Chen Hui replied. She waved goodbye at brother Lu and smiled helplessly, “Brother Lu, see, I didn’t lie to you. Lord likes me too much and can’t be separated from me for even a moment. See you later!”

After she finished speaking, she ran to catch up with the carriage while brother Lu silently slowed down the horse and let his colleagues go first.

The carriage stooped and Chen Hui climbed into the carriage full of puffs and blows.

Li Youde sat in the innermost part of the carriage with a sullen face.

Chen Hui sat in front of Li Youde’s knees. She looked at Li Youde and said solemnly, “Lord, this Lady Chen is still waiting for lord’s answer.”
