Chapter 148: A Visit from the Fire

readx;

As the general of the Imperial City Defense Team, Lihuo has 200,000 elite soldiers in his hands to protect the security inside and outside the Imperial City. Although the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is not as responsible for guarding the border of the Japanese Continent as General Xi Zhao, and the garrison is as many as one million, it is also highly valued by the emperor. This time, he was ordered to supervise the situation on the western border and the logistical reserves of the defenders, and he did not return for nearly two months.

returned to the imperial city, handed over an errand to the emperor, and received a lot of rewards and awards, but when he returned to the general's mansion that night, he was angry. There was no one in the mansion except for a few maidservants and servants, and since the early death of the lady, he had not remarried, and the huge general's mansion was deserted. It's just that the son is away from Siguang, he hasn't stayed at home much since he grew up, he has to go to practice, and he doesn't enter the house once in a year or two at every turn.

However, it can be regarded as a glory, although it is not the same as the son of General Xi Zhao, he served as a military general in the court, guarding the border and serving the country. But he was also a master in the imperial city, and during the battle of the Sword Pavilion, Lihuo couldn't even believe his eyes. Holding the family heirloom flame sword, with a body of firelight, a few swords split the Great Elder of the Sword Pavilion in half. Now he is the vice president of the Nameless Academy, and even the emperor praises it, so it's normal if he doesn't go home if he's busy.

But Li Hanyun is not at home, this daughter has always been very loving. Although he is already twenty or six, he has not found a husband, and he feels that because his daughter is too good, he really doesn't think that any powerful person can match it in the future, but it is already dark and has not come back, and he sits in the hall and looks at a table of dishes without even thinking about moving!

The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and slapped the table with a big hand, "Butler!"

"Master, what's the matter with you! Is it because the food is not with your appetite?" the butler trotted all the way to Lihuo, although Lihuo is a general, but he has always been very peaceful in the mansion, and I don't know what happened today, and his temper is not right when he returns to the mansion at night.

"What kind of food is not the same as the appetite? I ask you, why is there no one in the family at this time?"

"Master, you also know that the young master is now the vice principal of the Nameless Academy, and he rarely comes back on weekdays. In the past few days, the vice principal of Tianci has been injured in the competition with people, and I heard that the injury is still very serious, and the young master must be taking care of him, and there is no time to come back.

"Tianci was injured in the competition with people?" Lihuo had just returned to the Imperial City, and he didn't know anything about these things, but in his impression, Tianci was also a kendo master, how could he be easily injured.

"Master, it's true, it's a young master who challenges God, and then review the viewing platform in the square, God-given is invincible, everyone knows about this!"

"Oh!" nodded from the fire, "where did the young lady go, and she didn't come back so late?"

"It's... Miss..."The butler hesitated for a moment and did not dare to raise his head.

The housekeeper is nearly fifty years old, and he has been in the General's Mansion for decades, and he works weekdays, and he can trust him quite a lot, but when he saw him, he suddenly became a little angry, and his voice was a little rougher, "Just say something!"

"Yes, Miss hasn't been back to live in the house for more than a month, and has been living in a small courtyard outside the imperial city, and her personal maid Wan'er has also been taken away!"

"Living in a small courtyard outside the imperial city?" Lihuo was stunned for a moment, and he didn't want to go back to live outside, so he couldn't help asking, "Why do you live there?"

"This old slave doesn't know why he lives there, not only Miss and Wan'er live there, but also... And..."

"Who else?" the butler began to stand up again, and when he left the fire, he felt that something must be wrong, or he would not have covered it up like this.

"There lived a middle-aged man of about forty years old, a young man about the same age as a young lady, and a little girl about ten years old!"

"What!" an unmarried woman actually lived with a man, and when she heard this, she was furious and stood up, "Butler, tell me everything you know!"

Seeing that the general was angry, the housekeeper dared to hide something, since the young lady lived there, he had been there twice, and he was also a little familiar with it, "Master, this is still because there is a very fierce horned eagle attacking the academy, the young master almost lost his life for this, fortunately, the young man fought the horned eagle to save the young master's life, but at the same time, he was also taken away by the horned eagle far away, and the young lady was left to take care of a middle-aged man with crippled limbs and a little girl in their family!"

As soon as he heard that Li Siguang almost gave his life, Li Huo suddenly calmed down a lot, "Siguang almost gave his life?

"Master, it's okay, the young master has already recovered by now. It is said to be an eighth-order eagle, if it weren't for thanking others for saving their lives, Miss wouldn't have taken care of it herself. ”

Lihuo nodded, his heart was a lot lesser, the grace of saving his life should be repaid, the housekeeper didn't know what the eighth order meant, but Lihuo knew very well how strong the eighth order was, and this young man was also quite strong!"

"I've been back a long time ago, but the young lady has been living there all along!"

"Even if you're back, why doesn't Hanyun go home yet!"

"Master, I've heard..."

"If you have it, you will say!When did you become so grinding and chirping!" Lihuo really didn't know that the housekeeper was always secretive, and he knew something, and he didn't want to tell himself.

"It's rumored outside that that young man is Miss's future husband..."

"Nonsense!" Before the butler could finish speaking, he was furious, "Go and get the young lady back for me!"

"Yes!" the butler hurried out the door.

"Wait!" Leaving the fire shouted again, calling out to the butler, "tell me where that little courtyard is." Change into casual clothes, I'm going to see for myself what the hell is going on!"

In addition to the east gate of the imperial city, looking at the past, although the sky is a little gloomy, the vision is not blurry, the nameless academy with lights on is clearly visible, and the lights of the three-story wooden building in the small courtyard not far from the imperial city are also clear.

This place is really easy to find as the housekeeper said, Li Huo was wearing a black robe, and he determined the location of the small courtyard at a glance, and walked alone in the direction of the small courtyard.

Near the gate of the courtyard, the iron gate was closed, and just wanted to step forward from the fire when he found the blue wolf lying at the door, he had also practiced martial arts since he was a child, otherwise he would not have fought on the battlefield for several years and finally found a general. I also have some understanding of Warcraft, and the blue wolf that is not lower than the fifth order would have been used as a treasure in other places, but here it is just treated as a watchdog!

The blue wolf was lying on the ground, but he could also see that his body was taller than the horse, and his small eyes were staring at him half-open, half-closed, as if he was very hostile and dangerous. Lihuo had no choice but to stop, even if he had weapons and armor on his body, he might not be able to resist the fangs and sharp mouth of the fifth-order blue wolf.

There was a slight snoring, and when I looked away from the fire, I found that there was actually a person near the blue wolf. Lying there with his back to the sky, covered in fat, he looked tall and fat. He had a full beard, but he was a big bald head, leaning on a large iron wine vat and sleeping fatly.

Two steps away from the fire, he walked to the fat man, and when he saw that the blue wolf did not move, he felt a lot more relieved. As soon as I was about to ask a few questions, I first smelled a rush of alcohol, and it turned out to be a drunkard.

"Hey, this friend!"

After a few greetings from the fire, the fat man snored the same, and kicked lightly with his toes twice, except that he felt that he was really fat and even his toes were about to sink down, but the person still didn't react, and seemed to be unaware.

Forget it, Lihuo wants to call her daughter's name, but it may not be good. The courtyard wall is very high, and you can't see the inside, but the three-story building is really good, exquisite and beautiful, and there is an external attic outside the room on each floor, so only my daughter will have this design.

Lihuo was hesitating about how to get in, or to go home, when the iron door creaked open. Out of it was a young man, slender and well-proportioned, but his appearance was ordinary, dressed in coarse cloth, and holding a rice bowl in his hand.

The two brothers knew that they couldn't drink stones, so they shifted their targets in the past few days, and the spearhead was aimed at Mo Da, who had a very poor amount of alcohol, and everyone had finished dinner, and they still poured him in the living room. Lihanyun and Xiaowan took Nizi upstairs to write and paint, and Shi Jingtian had nothing to do, so he got up and no one fed Xiao Hei at night!

"Xiao Hei, it's time to eat!" Shi Jingtian pushed open the iron door, put down the rice bowl in his hand, and the blue wolf wagged his tail and ran to him to eat. Immediately, Shi Jingtian saw that in addition to Zhang Yong, who was sleeping soundly, there was another person at the door.

Although the sky is a little dark, it can still be seen clearly, the person who came is about fifty miles away, the hair has been mixed with a lot of white hair, and the edge of a black satin suit has fine hand embroidery, low-key and luxurious. With a square face, tiger eyes and thick eyebrows, his appearance is somewhat similar to Li Siguang, and there is a kind of momentum on his body that is not angry but powerful. Shi Jingtian suddenly remembered that this was Lisiguang's father, General Lihuo, and remembered that he had seen it once during the Battle of the Sword Pavilion.

Shi Jingtian was looking at Lihuo, and Lihuo was also looking at Shi Jingtian, in addition to looking a little ordinary, he was about twenty-four or five years old, and his ability to fight the horned eagle was definitely a young leader.

Recognizing Lihuo, Shi Jingtian was stunned at first, and then immediately remembered that Lihanyun had told him that his father had gone to inspect the border two months ago, and it was estimated that he had just come back and didn't see his daughter, and he didn't send anyone to look for him, so he came.

"Come in! Lihanyun is upstairs!" Shi Jingtian was a little nervous somehow, Lihuo would definitely not come here at will, could it be because Lihanyun lived here, it must be like this.

"Do you know me?" Lihuo's face was very flat, and there was no trace of annoyance.

"Well, I know! The Lihuo General of the City Defense Army!" Of course, Shi Jingtian would not say that he had met him during the Battle of the Sword Pavilion, but fortunately, Lihuo was also a well-known figure in the Imperial City.

"What's your name?"

"Stone!"

"How old are you?"

"Twenty-four!"

"Always living in the Imperial City?"

"No, I used to live in Del City, and I moved here for less than a year!"

Lihuo didn't seem to want to go into the courtyard to find his daughter at all, and when he stood at the door, he couldn't stop asking Shi Jingtian this and that, from the family to the current situation and what kind of situation he cultivated, everything was asked clearly.

Shi Jingtian also asked and answered, except for what he couldn't say, there was basically nothing to hide. But I was even more nervous in my heart, I don't know when, Mo Yan and the others were imperceptibly getting closer and closer to Hanyun, as if they were really facing the future father-in-law.
