Chapter 133 Worried about Uncle
For several days, Su Li and Qin took turns staying in Su Zhe's room, not daring to slack off at all.
After a few days, Su Li lost a lot of weight.
Su Zhe's burns were extensive, and he also had internal injuries, leaving him in a coma. Dr. Fei didn't dare take it lightly, so he stopped drinking and eating chicken, and continued to treat him five times a day.
Su Zhe's injury weighed heavily on everyone's mind, and even the atmosphere in the General's Mansion seemed to grow heavier. Everyone's heart was on edge, not daring to speak loudly or even walk with a heavy footstep.
Almost everyone in Shengjing City had a family funeral, and classes at the academy were suspended for many days.
In the corridor, Xijie held her brother's hand and watched the servants going in and out of Su Zhe's room. Her grandmother and mother were frowning all day long, and their hearts were in ache.
"Brother, will uncle die?"
Xijieer looked up and looked at her brother with tears in her eyes.
"will not!"
Huan Ge'er was firm.
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he looked at the blazing fire in Tongtian Tower and seemed to see the fire in the royal palace that year, which devoured 137 lives. His heart became increasingly gloomy, and he turned around and went to the martial arts training ground.
"Master, you've already pooped five hundred times today. It's time to take a break!"
Watching Young Master Huan drawing his bow and shooting arrows again and again, Shitou felt heartbroken.
For several days in a row, the young master was like a wound-up spring, shooting arrows, practicing boxing, standing still, and running in the martial arts field every day, and studying hard in his room until midnight at night.
This morning, he saw that the young master's arms were so swollen that he couldn't lift them. He applied medicinal wine on them and continued to practice desperately.
"Never stop!"
"Master, if you practice like this every day, your hands will become useless!"
"Don't make any noise!"
Huan Ge'er's hands were shaking, but he didn't want to rest.
He was too weak to be protected by anyone, and needed his father and mother to protect him. He had to become strong quickly to protect his loved ones and family.
"You can't practice like this."
Pei Heng had appeared behind him at some point. Su Li was so focused on taking care of Su Zhe that she had no time to look after the children, so he, as a father, had to take on the responsibility.
Seeing how Brother Huan had been performing these past few days, he had taken the time to come over today and talk to him in person.
"Father?"
Huan Ge'er was a little surprised that his father appeared here.
Pei Heng took the bow from Huan Ge'er's hand and put it aside. He pulled him to sit down and said:
"My father had a friend who was incredibly talented, excelling in everything from studying to martial arts. Unwilling to accept his talent, my father secretly challenged him, training day and night. He ended up breaking his arm, and it took him a long time to heal. That friend taught me that in everything you do, you must take one step at a time, and always remember the principle that haste makes waste."
There was a question flashing in Huan Ge'er's dark eyes.
"Father is a man of both civil and military talents. Is there anyone in this world more capable than him?"
Pei Heng's eyes darkened, and he said with a wry smile:
"Yes."
Li Qian was a year older than him, and they had grown up together. He was already a top talent in every area, but Li Qian was always a little better. Sometimes hard work was worthless in the face of talent!
Thinking of the past, he felt melancholy.
Huan Ge'er seemed to have some feelings in his heart.
"Okay, go back and have a good rest. I'll take you to practice tomorrow." Pei Heng touched Huan Ge'er's head.
"Ok!"
When I returned to Qingshan Courtyard, I saw Xie An coming. He was sitting in his study, eating cakes and pastries with his legs crossed.
"Take your stinky feet away!"
Huan Ge'er kicked Xie An away and sat on the chair. Shi Tou laughed and took out the medicinal wine to rub him with.
"What's wrong?" Xie An saw that his arm was swollen.
After listening to Shitou's account of what happened, Xie An chuckled and said, "Your little arms and legs are no match for this!"
Huan Ge'er turned his head in annoyance and ignored him.
Xie An didn't care about the consequences and went over to show off his almost invisible muscles, saying:
"Look, you have to be like me. Pei Huan, I told you a long time ago that you have to eat meat! Only by eating meat can you gain strength. You still don't believe it. How can you, a grass-eater, compare with me, a meat-eater?"
"Really?" Huan Ge'er looked at Xie An unconvinced, "Can eating meat really make your body stronger?"
"Of course! Otherwise, your mother would feed your father and your sister three meals a day, with each meal containing several kilograms of meat? Look, the general has recovered to this level in less than a year. And your sister is so strong that I can't even hold her!" Xie An thought of Xijie'er's chubby appearance and laughed.
That's true.
My father is really a big eater. He can easily eat half a pound of beef in one meal. The same goes for Xijie. She starts eating from the moment she opens her eyes in the morning until she goes to bed at night. I have never seen her mouth empty.
He and his mother are the thinnest in the family.
When it was time to eat dinner that night, he hesitated for a long time before reaching for a piece of meat with his chopsticks.
Su Li, who was eating, was stunned.
Pei Heng, Xi Jie'er, Xie An, and Qin Shi were all stunned. They stared blankly, chopsticks in hand. Just as Xi Jie'er and Xie An opened their mouths to speak, Su Li grabbed their lips and warned them not to make a sound.
Everyone lowered their heads to eat and pretended not to see anything, but in fact they were all looking up.
I saw Brother Huan holding the meat with a frown on his face. He was torn between his conscience and his desires for who knows how long. Then he closed his eyes and opened his mouth, stuffed the meat into his mouth and swallowed it without even biting it.
Snapped!
Xie An was so shocked that the big chicken leg in his hand fell onto the table, and Xi Jie'er, who was standing next to him, picked it up and stuffed it into her mouth.
Xie An regretted deeply after losing a big chicken leg!
Su Li and Pei Heng looked at each other, and Pei Heng signaled her to be patient.
Then I saw Brother Huan pick up the second piece and swallow it as if it were poison.
Su Li really couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to say to her son, "It's time to bite and chew it." But before she could say anything, Pei Heng stopped her.
He stuffed a piece of meat into Su Li's mouth and said to himself:
"Ari, you've worked hard these past few days, eat more!"
Qin also reacted and said while eating:
"Yes, yes, yes, eat more."
Back in the room, Su Li pulled Pei Heng aside and asked:
"what happened?"
Pei Heng gagged as he flipped through the book, "My son has grown up and wants to become stronger."
"But didn't you see? He swallowed it without even biting it. He looked like he was going to throw up at any moment."
Su Li was worried. What should she do if she had indigestion?
"It's okay, you'll just get used to it slowly."
Having neglected the children and Pei Heng during this period, Su Li tossed and turned in bed at night. Not knowing what Pei Heng was thinking, she tossed and turned tonight as well.
"Can't you sleep either?" Su Li asked.
"Ah."
"What's wrong? Is the case not going well?"
Pei Heng turned over and held Su Li in his arms.
In the past few days, they have been investigating the Tongtianlou case. Following the two clues of explosives and guns, they have checked all the fireworks shops, underground workshops, the warehouses of the Ministry of War, and even secretly visited Liu Xu's shop, but they found no clues.
Steel balls were indeed found in the body of the deceased.
The only problem is that there is no evidence to prove that this matter is related to Liu Xu, Pei Yan or even Prince Jing.
Pei Heng was in an extremely heavy mood.
After telling Su Li about the matter, Su Li said:
"They must have made every possible preparation. I'm afraid they've already destroyed the bodies and covered up all traces of the bodies."
In the end it was still a step too late.
"It doesn't matter. At least it proves that this incident was not done by the Beimang people. Now the target is locked on Aunt Liu. We will always be able to find some clues in the future." Pei Heng comforted.
This is the only way to think about it. Su Li leaned in Pei Heng's arms and said:
"Look at the bright side of things. At least this way, His Royal Highness Prince Su will have a chance to win the hearts of the people."
Pei Heng kissed his wife.
Ah Li was right. His Royal Highness Prince Su had saved Prince Heng's life, and everyone had seen it. Duke Yong was so grateful that he had sent his wife to Prince Su's mansion with gifts to personally thank him.
Pei Heng also took the opportunity to visit the Duke of Yong's mansion in person. Sun Zhonghuai was not idle during this period either. He took the opportunity to visit various mansions to pay condolences and took the opportunity to test the waters.
In addition, Prince Su personally took care of everything at the disaster site, and his brothers in the city defense camp and various government offices were all very impressed by him.
It can be considered a blessing in misfortune.
In Qingshan Courtyard, Huan Geer was vomiting violently while holding a bucket. Xie An pinched his nose and patted him on the back with a look of disgust, saying:
"Oh my god! It stinks! Please hurry up!"
"If you can't eat it, then don't eat it! Why are you trying so hard to show off? It's okay for you to keep eating grass. It's okay if you have weaknesses. At worst, I can protect you for the rest of your life!"
"no!"
Huan Ge'er vomited so much bitter bile that it fermented out. He had a lot of snot and tears, and his mouth and even his nostrils were sore.
"I can't rely on others for protection! I have to rely on myself!"
"I don't just have to rely on myself! I also have to protect each and every one of you! Xie An, I can do it!"
"Okay! You can do it! Hey, drink some water!"
Xie An handed over a pot of water.
Huan Ge'er rinsed his mouth and sat aside to rest.
"Don't tell them!"
"understood."
