Chapter 1160  : Secret Exploration by Wuhu

At the Nie family.

After Xiao Ruyan returned, she immediately went to her mother-in-law’s courtyard.

Nie Jinfeng was pounding medicine.

Adult phoenixes were belligerent and were often injured. This medicine was prepared for phoenixes.

Nie Xiaozhu squatted on the ground and played with his puppy.

“Mother!”

Xiao Ruyan rushed in anxiously and sat beside Nie Jinfeng. She held her arm and wheedled, “Mother, I missed you so much after not seeing you for a day.” Nie Jinfeng was expressionless. “If you have something to say, say it.”

Nie Xiaozhu looked at the two of them.

Xiao Ruyan had a serious expression. “You play your game!”

Nie Xiaozhu lowered her head and continued to play with the puppy.

The dog raised by Nie Jinfeng was naturally docile and did not bite. Its body and stomach were also clean and would not let its precious grandson be in any danger.

Xiao Ruyan smiled and said, “Mother, do we have a little relationship with the Hundred Flowers Palace?”

Nie Jinfeng replied, “No.”

Xiao Ruyan said, “How can there not be? We’ve been in contact with the

Hundred Flowerz Palace for several years.”

Nie Jinfeng said, “They want the seed of the Phoenix Flower, and I want the eggs of the phoenixes. This isn’t friendship. It’s a deal.”

Xiao Ruyan persisted, “Wouldn’t we have a relationship if we interact?”

Nie Jinfeng pulled out her arm and continued pounding the medicine. ‘What are you trying to say?”

Xiao Ruyan said with a smile, “Help me go to the Hundred Flowers Palace to ask for information. ”

Nie Jinfeng snorted. “Did that girl ask you to come?”

Xiao Ruyan said, “She didn’t ask me to come. She refused to leave and insisted on waiting outside, asking me to come back first. She said that when the rain stops later, she will return on her own. Shouldn’t I be worried about her?”

Nie Jinfeng said calmly, “You don’t have to worry about her.”

Xiao Ruyan said worriedly, “She didn’t bring Cheng Xin over. She’s weak. What if the Hundred Flowers Palace arrests her as a thief…

Nie Jinfeng hit the nail on the head. “Her puppet was refined by the Hundred Flowers Palace. Her relationship with the Hundred Flowers Palace is definitely not simple.”

Xiao Ruyan was stunned. “Is that so?”

Nie Jinfeng said indifferently, “I advise you not to worry about her. Also, that girl’s secret is too big. You’d better stay away from her.”

Xiao Ruyan couldn’t walk through her mother-in-law’s path herself and kept winking at Nie Xiaozhu.

Unfortunately, Nie Xiaozhu was only focused on playing with the puppy and did not receive the call of her mother.

Xiao Ruyan gritted her teeth in anger and could only go out first.

“What should we do? If she stays there and doesn’t leave, the people of the Hundred Flowers Palace will definitely chase her away. She’ll be arrested before she can leave.”

Xiao Ruyan paced around outside.

“I’ve already gone to the Hundred Flowers Palace today, so it’s not good for me to go a second time and sneak in. But I only know a little life-saving movement technique. I can’t defeat a single disciple of the Hundred Flowers Palace.”

Seeing that her master was at a loss, Yuru’s heart ached. “Madam, don’t worry. Perhaps Madam Wei will be lucky and not be caught.”

Xiao Ruyan said worriedly, “That’s the Hundred Flowers Palace. They don’t even give the City Lord Manor respect. Is Qin Su’s luck really that good?”

In the Peony Pavilion, the most shocking scene in the history of the Hundred Flowers Palace was playing out.

The Palace Lord had already thrown out her moves, but Wei Ting’s call of “mother” rendered her speechless.

Wei Ting addressed her much more sincerely than Ling Yun.

When did she have such a big child? Why didn’t she know?

For a moment, the Palace Lord almost believed him. She wondered if she had really given birth and lost her memory.

In a moment of confusion, she could not continue with this palm strike.

However, it was not easy to take it back.

Hence, her waist was sprained again…

The Palace Lord, who was lying on the floor with her arms and legs spread out, had a look of despair.

There was no way for her waist to recover.

At the City Lord’s Mansion, after Wu Hu was locked in the birdcage, Xie Jinnian, the temporary owner, forgot to let it out.

The black crow was at ease. It was fine as long as there was food.

Wuhu could not take it anymore.

It wanted to work to earn bird food!

Damn it!

“What’s wrong with this bird? Will it starve to death if it doesn’t eat?” a maid asked.

Another maidservant said, “I don’t think so, right? Didn’t Young Master say that Ruyi is very obedient?”

“Is it feeling unwell? Should we find a physician to take a look at Ruyi?” “Where in the City Lord Manor is there a physician who treats birds?”

“Look, it’s not moving!”

Wu Hu lay upright in the bird cage.

When the two maids quickly opened the birdcage and took it out to see if it was really dead, Wuhu flapped its wings and flew away!

“Aiya! We let go of Young Master’s bird. We’re dead meat!”

The two maids hurriedly chased after it. Unfortunately, how could they chase after a macaw?

Hence, they called over the expert guards of the City Lord Manor.

The guards brought nets to catch the bird.

Wuhu was so frightened that its face turned pale!

Damn it!

It flew into a nearby courtyard.

The guards did not dare to chase after it.

Because that was Madam Rut s courtyard, they did not have the guts to barge in.

In the main room of the Jade Pavilion, Madam Ru had just finished drinking the tonic soup. She wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and lay leisurely on the chaise longue.

Her eldest daughter was already 17 years old, but she was still charming and beautiful.

She asked softly, “Is the City Lord coming over tonight?”

The maidservant smiled and said, “Yes, yes! The City Lord said that he would come over in a while!”

Madam Ru was very satisfied.

Suddenly, she looked at her leg and frowned.

The maid understood and hurriedly knelt on the ground to gently massage her.

“The City Lord really dotes on Madam. Ever since you became pregnant, the City Lord has come to see you every night. Which couple is as loving as you and the City Lord?”

These words successfully pleased Madam Ru. She raised her hand gently.

Another maid brought over a plate of fresh berries and knelt down to serve her.

Madam Ru took a fresh and plump fruit. “He’s only here to accompany me. I’m heavy and can’t serve him.”

The maidservant was very sweet. “That’s why I said that the City Lord really dotes on you. After you give birth to the young master, he will be the young master of our City Lord Manor in the future. You and the City Lord are the most enviable couple on the entire island!”

Madam Ru said, “Don’t talk nonsense. The young masters are also highly valued by the City Lord.”

The maidservant said, “They are not the City Lord’s biological sons after all. The one in your womb is the City Lord’s only biological son!”

Madam Ru touched her bulging stomach. “The only biological son…’

She looked out the window at the lanterns. “What time is it?”

The maid said, “Nine o’clock.”

Madam Ru’s smile faded. “It’s so late.”

The maid hurriedly said, “Madam, are you worried that the City Lord won’t come? No!”

Madam Ru threw the berries back onto the plate. “You don’t understand. Today

is…”

“City Lord!”

A servant’s greeting came from outside.

A trace of surprise flashed across Madam Ru’s eyes.

She waved at the two of them.

The two maids immediately stood up.

Madam Ru held her belly and was about to get off the chaise longue to welcome the City Lord.

The City Lord strode in. “Don’t move. Sit.”

Madam Ru smiled gently. “Yes.”

The City Lord sat down beside her and looked at her belly. “Is this kid obedient today?”

Madam Ru said coquettishly, “He kicked me many times. I don’t know who he takes after, but he’s so vigorous.”

The sweet-talking maid hurriedly said, “Of course, he takes after the City Lord.

When he grows up, he’ll definitely be as heroic as the City Lord.”

Madam Ru said to the City Lord, “Look, look, this girl is better at talking than me.”

The City Lord smiled faintly.

Madam Ru said to this sweet-talking maid, “Qing Ju, bring up supper.”

The City Lord held her hand. “There’s no need. I came to see you. I still have official business later.”

Madam Ru was slightly surprised. “It’s so late. What urgent official business can’t wait until tomorrow?”

The City Lord said, “Rest first. I’ll come over to see you tomorrow.” With that, he stood up and left.

Madam Ru looked at his departing back and her smile faded bit by bit. Qing Ju was extremely surprised. “Madam, why did the City Lord leave?” Madam Ru said calmly, “Have you forgotten that today is the 9th of August?” “So it’s already the ninth day of the new year…”

Qing Ju said, “What day is August 9th? Why does the City Lord have to spend this day alone every year?”

Madam Ruts eyes were cold. “A dead person’s birthday..”
