Chapter 69 Salt Water
The rain was getting worse and bigger, but none of the four people had the intention of going back. They looked at the rippled water and wondered if the scene just now would still appear, but nothing happened after waiting for a long time. Finally, at the suggestion of He Tianfang, the four decided to go back first and study the pond another day.
Not long after Qi Yu's carriage was driving, several people heard a baby crying on the roadside. He Tianfang, who was driving, suddenly stopped the carriage, turned around and raised the curtain and said, "There is a baby by the roadside."
"Baby?" King Jinheng looked out. There was a baby who seemed to be only one or two years old on the muddy roadside crying, "Whose child is this? Why did you put it here?"
Qi Yu also poked out his head. He looked at the little baby from afar. He didn't know why he jumped out of the carriage and ran to the baby, and then carefully held it in his arms.
"Yuer, what are you doing?" King Jinheng saw Qi Yu carrying the baby into the carriage and asked, "Her parents will be anxious if you take her away like this."
Qi Yu wiped the rain on the baby's face with his sleeve and said, "I think this child is probably an abandoned baby. Why don't you take her in?"
"This won't work. As a prince, I can't take in other people's children casually." King Jinheng said, "This matter must be reported to the court and obtained the permission of the royal family."
"Is it so troublesome?" Qi Yu said, "Then it's okay to foster her in your house. I'm not going to ask the prince to give her any status, but I just hope this child can have enough to eat and wear warm clothes."
"That's no problem." King Jinheng said, "Yes, how is Yiyan now?"
"Xiaobei said that he had arranged it." Yi Chen said, "Specifically, it should have been arranged by the owner of the Liu Palace. I don't know exactly what's going on."
"Stay away from the palace, alas, she is also a miserable child!"
"Your Majesty, I want to ask you something." Qi Yu patted the baby in his arms and asked, "If I were not the child of Princess Fengran, would you still help me?"
"No." Unexpectedly, King Jinheng replied without thinking, "The reason why I help you so is because of Princess Fengran. Although she is my own sister, I love her..."
"Well, then I'm relieved." Qi Yu said.
"Why do you say that?"
"Your Majesty, do you know that the only thing in the world will not change?"
"Love."
"No." Qi Yu said lightly, "Love for the dead."
Yi Chen knew that Qi Yu thought of Shen Yan again, but many times he tried not to mention that matter, because it was he who killed Shen Yan himself: "Don't say this, Qi Yu, aren't you going to see Qianzhuang?"
"Yes, I forgot about this business." Qi Yu said, "Your Majesty, take the child back to the house first. We both want to walk around the street."
"Good." King Jinheng said, "Do you want me to send someone to protect you?"
"No." Qi Yu said, "It's no problem to have Yichen, and this time I want to have a private visit!"
"Okay, then be careful."
The carriage drove for about half an hour and Qi Yu and Yichen said goodbye to King Jinheng. What surprised them was that the sky was so clear that they could not even see the clouds. The two wanted to go to Qianzhuang first, but Qi Yu's stomach had been hungry for a long time, so they went to the best restaurant in the capital for a hundred years.
"Two guests, what do you want?" The shopkeeper, who is good at observing words and colors, saw that although Qi Yu and the two were children, they were not covered with the precious satin.
"You recommend it." Qi Yu said, "I'm so hungry that I can swallow a cow now. By the way, do you have any steak? It's better to have another bottle of Bordeaux red wine, which is 1983!"
Steak? Red wine?" Xiaoer scratched the back of his head and said, "There is a famous dish in our restaurant called Dengying beef. The meat slices are as thin as paper, red and bright in color, spicy and crisp, chewed, and the aftertaste is endless. There is also the famous wine of our store, mulberry wine, which is really better than cold pulp, fragrant and nectar! Do you want some of the two young masters?
"Come on, I don't want to drink now." Qi Yu said, "You can mess up that or something. So you can get me two bowls of rice, a fried green vegetable, by the way, a green onion mixed with tofu, and the delicious brown sugar stewed pear here!"
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
After a while, the second side brought the dish up. Although it was only a common dish, just looking at the green color made people appetizing. Qi Yu had moved his chopsticks without hesitation, but Yi Chen did not move much and did not mean to move his chopsticks at all.
"Why don't you eat it?" Qi Yu put a piece of green vegetables in his mouth, chewed it a few times and said, "This is not a high-fat thing. Eat it!"
"I won't be able to eat until about three days before I eat." Yi Chen said to Xiao Er, "Please bring me a bowl of salted water. That's right, the water needs to boil!"
"This young master, do you only need a bowl of salt water?"
"Ye." Yi Chen nodded and said, "The water must be boiled."
"Okay, just a moment." With that, Xiao Er left.
"Why do you drink salt water? This exercise can't be like this!" Qi Yu said, "People are iron rice and steel, and they are so hungry that they don't eat a meal. This is the time for you to grow up. You can't eat without eating.
"I'm measured." Yi Chen said, "Yes, why did you adopt that baby?"
"What's so strange about this? It's just adopting a baby."
"This is not like your style." Yi Chen said, "Although you belong to the kind, you are definitely not so kind, so there must be some reason."
"Hey, you can see it. In fact, I don't know what's going on, but I just want to adopt her. I think I've seen her somewhere."
Just not far from Qi Yu and the others, a teenager in a cyan gown was half squinting at the two people. Yi Chen seemed to notice the teenager's eyes and then looked at the teenager: "Qi Yu, someone is staring at us."
Qi Yu followed Yi Chen's eyes and saw that the teenager was indeed looking at himself: "Why is he looking at us?"
"How do I know?"
As he spoke, the teenager stood up and walked towards Qi Yu and the others: "Can I sit here?"
"Sit down." Qi Yu said, "Why did you keep staring at us just now?"
"Nothing, I'm just a little curious. My surname is Ye Shanming is an idle word." Ye Xian said.
Curious? Is there anything curious about us? Qi Yu asked, "It's your strange behavior that makes us both curious."
"This little bit of the eyebrows is enough to make people curious." Ye Xian looked at Yi Chen and said, "This must be the owner of the Divine Moon Palace."
"How do you know?" Yi Chen asked, "Does it say on my face that I am the owner of the Moon Palace?"
