"Your father ...... him"

Liu Shuyao's face changed suddenly, and she seemed to be a little speechless and stopped.

Di Tian faintly felt that something seemed wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Could it be that something happened?"

Liu Shuyao was silent for a moment, thought for a while, and suddenly said to Di Tian: "Tian'er, now that you have grown up, there are some things that you should indeed know." Actually, your father went to Zhongshu City this time, and our family's business was affected a little over there, so he went over with your second uncle and Steward Chen to deal with it. You don't have to worry about that, presumably in three or two days, they should come back. ”

Di Tian frowned when he heard this, and said, "Zhongshu City, it seems that the second uncle has always been in charge of it, what is going on, even the second uncle can't handle it, and I want my father and Uncle Chen to go over together." It seems that this matter is not small......"

Before Emperor Tian finished speaking, Liu Shuyao smiled, interrupted him, and said, "Okay, Tian'er, you haven't handled these business things, and now you probably don't understand." You've just opened a coffin, and you've stayed up all night, and you're probably hungry. My mother has already asked someone to prepare some delicious food for you, let's eat something first, and then talk about the rest slowly. ”

Hearing this, Di Tian had no choice but to nod silently and didn't say anything more.

It's just that I don't know why, at this time in Di Tian's heart, there is a faint feeling of discomfort. It's like, by his side, something bad will happen.

It didn't take long for the people in the house to bring the food.

Di Tian looked at the table of fragrant dishes, and indeed felt a little hungry, and sat down, although there were only two people on the table and looked a little cold. But watching his mother keep putting his favorite dishes into the bowl for him, Di Tian suddenly felt a warm feeling in his heart.

In his previous life, Di Tian was an orphan and barely enjoyed the happiness of his family. Now that he is here, he has always been protected by this warm family. Sometimes Di Tian even wondered, did he have to go back to the homeland that made him die and made his heart sad?

Or is it that the attachment that he can't let go of in his heart now is actually just his unwillingness.

Even if he really had the ability to go back, could he really find the regrets he had lost at the beginning? Di Tian didn't know, and he didn't want to think too much. Over the years, the desire to return to his true homeland has become almost the only motivation for him to survive. If he chooses to give up now, it is tantamount to making him suddenly lose the direction of his progress.

Because his father was not there, at the dinner table at this time, Di Tian did not have as many rules as usual, and chatted with his mother next to him while eating.

Di Tian intentionally or unintentionally, always wanted to divert the topic to what was going on in Zhongshu City. At the beginning, Liu Shuyao was still casually perfunctory, but seeing that Di Tian didn't seem to want to give up, she had to smile lightly and tell the reason.

It turned out that as early as more than a month ago, after the battle between the emperor family and the Fang family, the matter was far from over.

Although the current emperor family has gradually declined and its power is not as strong as before, after all, it has a deep heritage, and even now it still operates a large business range, covering various towns near Qingzhou. Zhongshu City, on the other hand, is a bustling town bordering the South China Sea. The Imperial Family operates various businesses in Zhongshu City, the most important of which should be a fleet of the Imperial Family.

Because Zhongshu City is a salt-producing place, in the past, most of the official salt transportation was carried out by employing the imperial fleet. However, just a few days ago, news suddenly came from Zhongshu City, saying that a group of unidentified people had attacked the emperor's fleet at night. Those people chose to do it in the dead of night, poured oil on the emperor's ship docked in the harbor, and then set fire to the ship.

Although the mother did not say the specific loss, judging from the father's hurried departure this time, I am afraid that the loss is not small.

And according to the news that just came back today, because the emperor's fleet was on fire, the imperial court decided to hand over all the official salt that was originally handed over to the emperor's family to be transported.

As soon as this news came out, it had to make people suspect that the Fang family would be inseparable from this matter.

"Mother, let me go to Zhongshu City too. Di Tian said suddenly.

"Are you going to Zhongshu City?" Liu Shuyao frowned slightly, and said with some puzzlement: "Tian'er, your father and your second uncle will handle the affairs over there, so why should you also run over." ”

Di Tian smiled and said: "Mother, I don't have anything to do at home now, and I'm a little bored to stay here every day, so it's better to take this opportunity to go out for a walk." Maybe I can help my father a little bit when I get to Zhongshu City, you say. ”

Liu Shuyao couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "You kid, usually your father asks you to follow him to learn how to run a business, you always hate this, today is the sun coming out in the west or what, we Tian'er actually took the initiative to ask to see our family's business." ”

Hearing this, Di Tian just smiled, and didn't defend anything.

To say that Di Tian really has no interest in doing business at all, otherwise in the early years, when he was judged to be unable to cultivate, his father Di Chongyang wanted him to start gradually accepting the family business many times, but he tried his best to refuse every time. However, this time what happened in Zhongshu City, Di Tian faintly felt that it was not so simple.

And the reason why he insisted on going to Zhongshu City was the anxiety in his heart.

It was an indescribable subtle feeling, and Di Tian himself couldn't explain it clearly. It's just that as soon as he heard that his father had gone to Zhongshu City and that such a big thing had happened there, a very strange feeling suddenly appeared in his heart. There seemed to be a faint voice in his heart constantly urging him to hurry to Zhongshu City.

"Mother, let the child go. Rest assured, I won't trouble my father. And you can be assured that you will take care of yourself. Di Tian looked at Liu Shuyao earnestly, and pleaded again.

Liu Shuyao looked at his repeated insistence, so she had to smile and said softly: "You kid, if you want to let you out, I don't worry about you too much." It's just that the situation in Zhongshu City is still unstable, and I don't know if the thieves who set fire to our fleet are still there. I'm afraid it's not very safe for you to pass at this time. ”

Di Tian hurriedly said: "Mother, don't worry." According to my estimate, the people who set the fire now are probably no longer in Zhongshu City. Just imagine, no matter how bold those thieves are. But since there is such a big incident, they have to avoid the limelight for a while. And even if those people are still in the city, and there is a father sitting there, what do you have to worry about, mother. If you're still worried, I'll just bring a few more guards with me when I go out this time. ”

As soon as the words were said here, she saw Liu Shuyao's face suddenly change, and she stretched out her hand and knocked on Ditian's forehead, and said with some displeasure: "Besides, you stinky boy, I don't know where to go with the two of you yesterday." I heard that when I came back, I met the third young master of the Fang family in Beicheng, and I had a conflict with them, right? You kid, don't blame your mother for talking about you, it's not that you don't know that the relationship between the Fang family and our emperor family is already like fire and water, so you have to be careful. Don't ask for your mother, you kid doesn't know how to be interesting, so don't tell the truth about yesterday's events. ”

Di Tian laughed a few times, and then roughly recounted yesterday's events. Speaking of which, he and Dihao arrived at Qiyun Mountain, and later met the fifth-order demon beast black-toothed python, and then returned to the city and met Fang Dongliang again. However, during the period about the Heavenly Dao Sword, Emperor Tian still concealed it from the past.

But even so, when Liu Shuyao heard that the two of them had encountered so many dangers in just one day, their faces immediately turned blue and white, and they secretly sweated for Emperor Tian.

Liu Shuyao suddenly looked at Di Tiandao with a serious face: "Tian'er, you are really a little too old this time." dared to take the two of them with the emperor, and dared to run to the depths of the Qiyun Mountain. What kind of place is that Qiyun Mountain? Especially the deeper you go, the more demon beasts there are, and there are many high-level demon beasts among them. It's your father, and he doesn't go into it at will when he's fine. Who gave you the guts to break in so suddenly? Fortunately, God willing, let my son come back safely. If you have a good one, how can you live for your mother......"

As she spoke, Liu Shuyao's eyes turned red, and her eyes were filled with tears, as if she had a hint of fear.

Emperor Tian knew that his mother was frightened by his repeated encounters, so he hurriedly comforted: "Mother, don't be angry, isn't it good for the child." And the child can promise his mother, and he will never casually break into that Qiyun Mountain in the future. You also know the child's temper, but whatever you promise, you will definitely do. So don't worry, mother, with this experience, I won't dare to go to that place without permission. ”

Liu Shuyao glared at him angrily and said, "You kid, you really don't know how thick the sky is." Not to mention that at that time, you hadn't opened the flood wilderness, even in the late stage of the realm like Dihao, it wasn't the same that there was no way to take that fifth-order demon beast. You escaped death this time, and it will be interesting to see if you have a long memory. ”

Having said that, Di Tian clearly felt that his mother's tone had softened a little.

He immediately put on a smile on his face, wanting to hit the railroad while it was hot: "Then mother, ...... I go to Zhongshu City?"

Liu Shuyao snorted lightly, paused for a moment, and finally said, "Let this kid of you be at home, in case I don't pay attention at any time, and I don't know where you will go." It's okay to let you go to Zhongshu City, at least your father is in charge there, and you guy doesn't dare to play too wild. But let's talk about it first, this time you have to bring a few people over, and let Emgrand find a few better ones. Maybe when you get to Zhongshu City, you can add some people to your father. ”

When Di Tian heard this, he immediately said happily: "Okay, you can rest assured, I'll arrange it." ”

As he spoke, he was about to get up, but Liu Shuyao shouted: "What's the hurry! Sit down first, and run around before the meal is finished." ”

Then I saw her greet Hsinchu who was waiting not far away, and said to Hsinchu: "Hsinchu, you go over now and let Xu Lao come over." ”

Seeing Hsinchu leading the order to go out, Di Tian couldn't help but wonder: "Mother, what are you looking for Uncle Xu?"

Liu Shuyao glanced at him angrily and said, "What are you doing?!" It's not that I can't rest assured that you bastard boy, let Xu Lao follow you, I'm a little more relieved." And the current situation on your father's side is still unknown, and with Elder Xu coming with you, he may be able to help a little. ”

Hearing what his mother said, Di Tian immediately understood her intentions.

This Uncle Xu is rarely seen in the emperor's daily life, and he has been living in a small bamboo forest in the backyard of the emperor's mansion, and he has rarely seen him in the past.
