Chapter 890: Chapter 890: Maid Little Yue (Fifth Update)
"I can’t quite explain it, it’s just a lot, so much..."
At that moment, Little Yue, who had been hiding on the side, finally stood up and interjected, "Yes, madam, the young master was acting very strangely just now."
"That’s alright, as long as you’re fine, you should lie down and rest more," the middle-aged man said to the beautiful woman beside him. "Have Uncle Ding fetch some Calming Soup later, it seems the child had a nightmare, that’s why he’s talking nonsense."
"Mm, your concubine understands, my lord, rest assured."
"I have to go to the barracks for a bit, the house is in your care, madam."
"My lord, please be careful on the road."
"..." As the middle-aged man walked to the door, you suddenly said softly, "Father, take care."
The middle-aged man paused for a moment, then nodded his head and turned to leave.
For some reason, you blurted out those words, as rigid as they were. Throughout your life, you had never seen your own father, and although now you were role-playing, the man’s words and gaze conveyed deep affection, prompting you to naturally utter the words.
And for some reason, a feeling told you, he might indeed be your father.
Could it be that father also came in?
No way, right?
Never mind, it’s best to pretend to know nothing. After all, in the Order Barrier, there are many taboos.
"Young master, what’s wrong?"
Little Yue, noticing a melancholic expression on your face, naturally asked.
"No, it’s nothing, I want to rest now."
Saying this, you wrapped yourself in the blanket, lay down, and soon closed your eyes. You remained in bed for three days.
During those three days, feigning confusion due to murky memories of the past, you gathered some information indirectly from Little Yue.
After piecing together the information, you came to this startling and exhilarating conclusion: your father, Luo Cheng, was one of the Three Marshals of the Tang Dynasty, commanding two hundred thousand troops; your mother, from the Meng Family, appeared to be a housewife but was also a valiant warrior on the battlefield, once capturing the Three-Axe General Cheng Zhijie, the formidable Cheng Yaojin!
Your elder brother, Luo Xin, served as a Minister of the Imperial Secretariat. He had come to visit you not long after your father Luo Cheng left. Your first impression of him was scholarly, treating people with gentleness, from whom you also felt a deep sense of care. Your younger brother, Luo Wei, was about ten years old and quite mischievous.
This role-playing identity and status felt very comfortable for you.
Speaking of the distinguished family background, most importantly, you did not sense any scheming or infighting at home, only the care among family members.
With this, you didn’t have to worry temporarily about sibling rivalry or internal strife, allowing you to focus all your energy on finding the origin of Zhao’er.
Of course, the main thing was to find the order of the Map of Kingdom.
Among the numerous family members, the one you were most concerned about was the miniaturized Lin Panxia, Little Yue.
You hadn’t expected that this young girl would also be a gossip, constantly talking about the information she had gathered from others as you rested in bed over the three days.
And after getting familiar with you, the young girl was no longer as timid as before, quickly, before your eyes, she transformed into a naive and romantic elf:
"Young master, let me tell you, I heard that..."
"Second Young Master, do you know? The fourth young master from Duke Lu’s house next door..."
"Young Master, Young Master, let me tell you..."
"Young Master, do you want to hear about a really funny thing..."
Such were the opening lines that the young maid repeated several times a day.
Although you had heard them so often that your ears could have developed calluses, you also took pleasure in it. Having such a delightful and lovely young maid serving you would make anyone feel joyful deep inside. Moreover, although you were not sure how accurate the maid’s gossip was, at least you obtained some information from her and roughly understood the temperaments of certain people.
However, there was one thing that greatly puzzled you: whenever you asked about your past, the usually lively Little Yue’er would suddenly fall silent. No matter how you questioned her, she wouldn’t speak, and the same went for your visiting parents and siblings.
After three days of recuperation, you finally stretched and stepped out of your room, immediately greeted by a cool, refreshing breeze. You took a deep breath. Exiting your courtyard, you were approached by an elegant young man, who seeing Luo Wei, smiled faintly and strode towards you.
"Second brother, how do you feel after three days of recuperating?"
This was your elder brother Luo Xin, who spoke slowly and articulately, exhibiting polite and refined manners. Coupled with his handsome and sunny appearance, he was absolutely a heartbreaker when walking on the street. In contrast, you were short and fat with a face full of pockmarks. Even though the face wasn’t truly yours, every time you saw your reflection in the mirror, you felt an urge to punch yourself hard.
You began to doubt whether this body was indeed Luo Cheng’s biological one.
"Big brother, I’ve held this in my heart for a long time. What was I like in the past? Why does everyone around me steadfastly refuse to mention it? Even if I were a murderous tyrant, surely you wouldn’t all hide this from me."
Luo Xin sighed gently, patted your shoulder, and said with a smile, "Second brother, the past is the past, and bringing it up won’t do any good. Didn’t our parents tell you the other day? They just want you to live happily."
"But..."
"Eldest Young Master, the Master asks you to bring the Second Young Master to the main hall."
The newcomer was a middle-aged man with a rather handsome face, marked by a fierce scar on the left side, as if narrating his past exploits.
"Uncle Ding, who has come?"
Luo Xin’s brow furrowed slightly, knowing that under normal circumstances, strangers absolutely would not meet you; others would avoid you rather than seek you out.
"I’m not sure, it seems like someone from the Great Han."
"Great Han..."
Luo Xin rubbed his temples, then led you to the main hall.
"Father, Mother."
You first paid your respects to Luo Cheng and the Meng Family, then turned towards the two guests seated nearby.
At first glance, you saw a woman clad in white robes. Proud, that was the first impression she gave — radiantly cold, exuding intense pride, like a snow lotus blooming on the summit of a snowy mountain, basking in its singular beauty.
At that moment, in her eyes, you saw a look that greatly displeased you: a haughty disdain as if she were looking down on an ant — no, an ugly maggot!
"Crack!"
You clenched your fist tightly, struggling to restrain your urge to hit the woman.
"Yun’er, this is Elder Zuo from the Mysterious Heart Sect of the Great Han. Hurry and pay your respects!"
"Yes!"
