The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 154 I am very relieved

Chu Jie felt very guilty at the moment and unconsciously hid behind Li Mulan.

"Hehe, Uncle Chu, long time no see. How have you been lately?" Li Mulan could only bite the bullet and say hello. This was really too social.

"It hasn't been long. It's only been a few days since I returned to Kyoto."

Li Mulan's smile became even stiffer. "Oh, that's true, that's true, haha."

Chu Chenfeng glanced at Chu Jie, snorted coldly, and without saying anything, he went straight towards Li Cong and Li Xun, father and son.

After knowing Chu Jie's identity, Li Cong and Li Xun naturally knew the identity of Mr. Chu, but today he came in disguise again, obviously not wanting others to know his identity, so they pretended to be confused as well.

"Master Li, Mr. Li, I haven't seen you for a while. Is everything going well?"

Li Cong's eyelids twitched, but he remained calm, "Thanks to Mr. Chu, it's OK."

Li Xun bowed slightly to Chu Chenfeng, which was considered a greeting. Anyway, his identity today was not the regent, so he didn't need to kneel down to salute.

"The prince asked me to hand over this information to Tutor Li." Chu Chenfeng raised his right hand slightly, and Xingyi immediately handed over an envelope.

Chu Chenfeng took the information but did not give it to Li Cong immediately. He glanced at Chu Jie and said gently, "Master Li, please choose the right time to leak this information. It depends on your plan. Also, the prince has specifically said that this imperial examination is a good opportunity for the emperor to recruit talents. I hope Master Li will pay more attention to it."

Li Cong snorted coldly, and looked at Chu Chenfeng with a strange look in his eyes, "Then please tell the prince that it is my job and he doesn't need to worry about it."

Chu Chenfeng's lips curled slightly, "Yes, I will definitely convey it."

Li Xun watched the two of them interacting with each other and touched his nose, thinking that his father was still very brave.

Chu Chenfeng handed the information to Li Xun, who hurriedly took it.

"What about Mr. Li Er? When will he take office?"

Li Xun was stunned and bowed slightly, "Anytime."

Li Mulan and others on the side were confused, only Chu Jie's eyes flickered.

Chu Chenfeng handed Li Xun another golden plate. Li Mulan was a little far away and couldn't see the words clearly.

Li Xun took the token naturally, and only his slightly trembling fingers revealed his excitement at the moment. From now on, he would use this token to enter and leave the palace every day.

Li Cong's expression was somewhat complicated, but he finally said, "Thank you, Regent."

Chu Chenfeng smiled and said, "The prince also thinks that the second young master is a rare talent and does not want to waste him."

Li Cong nodded and said nothing more.

Chu Chenfeng turned to look at Chu Jie who was hiding behind Li Mulan, "You came out without telling me?"

Chu Jie curled his lips, "Will you still let me go out after I tell you?"

"Of course not."

Chu Jie was speechless. Just look and he’ll know.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chu Chenfeng continued, "Why don't you come and meet your teacher? Do you still need me to teach you this etiquette?"

Chu Jie then walked out from behind Li Mulan, and in front of Li Xun amid the surprised eyes of several people, he bowed and saluted, "Student Chu Jie, today I sincerely worship the second master of the Li family as my teacher. I hope that the teacher will teach me in the future. The student will learn with an open mind, study hard, and will never let the teacher down."

Li Xun was really nervous this time. No matter how young the child in front of him was, he was still the emperor. He greeted him so respectfully. He coughed lightly and said, "I am very pleased to have you as my student. I hope you can cultivate yourself and your family, put morality first, and become a person of both virtue and talent. I hope you can set high aspirations, make great plans, benefit the people, and become a pillar of society."

Li Xun wanted to say that he would become a wise ruler admired by the people, but it seemed inappropriate at this moment. He untied the jade pendant he was wearing around his waist and handed it to Chu Jie, "This is the jade pendant that I have worn since I was a child. I will give it to you today."

Chu Jie took the jade pendant solemnly and looked at Li Xun with more respect. From now on, this man would be his teacher.

Li Cong watched the two of them the whole time, his eyes unconsciously reddened. Not long ago, he also gave the jade pendant he had worn for many years to that person. But now, the person is no longer with us, but his child, in front of him, has become his disciple. Perhaps this is also a kind of fate.

Li Xi stared at it with wide eyes, and whispered to Li Mulan, "That jade pendant was worn by my second uncle since he was a child. Dad said that it was given to him by my grandmother when she was alive. He treasured it very much. Why did he give it away?"

Li Mulan's eyes flickered slightly. She always felt that something was wrong, but she had no clue what to do.

Huo Yuanruo bumped into Li Xi and said, "So are you going to study with Xiaojie from now on? Hasn't your second uncle been teaching you?"

Li Xi also looked confused, "I... I don't know."

Although they spoke quietly, everyone in the yard heard it.

Chu Chenfeng raised his eyes and looked at Li Xi, "Master Li's eldest grandson is seventeen this year, it's time for him to leave."

Li Cong also recovered from his previous emotions, "It's too late this year. Xi'er has been exiled since he was four years old, and he hasn't even participated in the provincial and academy examinations. Let's wait until next year and prepare early. It's really time for him to take the test."

"If the Master doesn't mind, you can let him listen with Xiaojie, so that Master Li doesn't have to bother with both sides."

Li Cong hesitated. The return of the Li family to the imperial court was already a great honor. When the news of the second son entering the palace to teach the emperor came out tomorrow, the whole capital would probably be in turmoil. If Xi'er was allowed to enter the palace as well, this kind of honor would probably make people jealous and crazy.

Chu Chenfeng naturally understood Li Cong's concerns and asked with a smile, "Why? Is the Grand Tutor afraid too?"

Li Cong gritted his teeth. This evildoer was really not afraid of trouble. "Since my family returned to Beijing, we have been at the center of the storm. What is there to be afraid of? I am just afraid that His Majesty will be embarrassed."

"Haha, how difficult is that? Master, you are worrying too much."

Li Xun looked at the still silly Li Xi with complicated eyes. Actually, maybe... this is not a bad idea.

Li Cong looked at Li Xi, "Xi'er, from now on you will go to Xiaojie's house with your second uncle every day to teach together. Are you willing?"

Li Xi was confused, "Go to Xiaojie's house? Why not in our own house?"

Li Xun scolded, "Why so many questions? Just answer whether you are willing or not."

Li Xi shrank his neck and said, "I will go wherever my second uncle goes. You have to teach me knowledge. How can I not follow you?"

Chu Chenfeng smiled, "Since the young master agrees, then it's decided. Today is a good day. Xiaojie not only becomes a disciple, but also has a senior brother." He looked at Chu Jie, "How do you feel?"

Chu Jie looked a little uncomfortable. He looked at Li Mulan, then at Li Xi, "Very... quite good."

In the future, the relationship with Sister Lan will be closer, hehe. Of course, what he hopes most now is to kidnap Sister Lan to be his imperial aunt, but looking at Chu Chenfeng's unpleasant appearance, it is estimated that it will be difficult.
