Madam General, please run slower.

Chapter 145 Uncle, did you poison my sister?

"I don't know the details, I can only say that my mother is not simple." Li sighed and explained, pulling Chunmei's hand and patting it gently, "I guess she was faking her death at that time. She was playing a game of chess that we didn't know about, and you and I were just chess pieces."

Ah? Was she a little silly for crying so hard just now? Chunmei's mind was in a mess and she couldn't recover.

Wei Shiliu was the first to come back to his senses and asked softly, "So Princess, are you planning to go find your mother?"

He seemed to understand a little bit why his master insisted on him staying with Li. His master was afraid that he would run away without saying a word again.

"Yes and no, not only do I need to find her, I also need to clarify some things." Li stretched lazily. Now she just had to wait and see what Tanghulu would ask her to do after she woke up. Anyway, she couldn't be a goddess. It was more credible to say that she was a witch than a goddess. Who would have killing on their hands?

"Can I go with the lady this time?" Chunmei looked at Li with anticipation in her eyes.

"It's too dangerous. No." Li shook his head and refused. From their attitude towards Yu Xun, it can be seen that those people have a great prejudice against this place. Chunmei's strength is still a little weak.

"I understand." It's not a good thing for this child to be too independent. Chunmei quickly adjusted her mood and said, "I have nothing to do now, so I will stick to you before you leave. Don't try to get rid of me."

Li was about to agree when Wei Shiliu raised his hand and said, "And me."

Chunmei glared at him and said, "Get out of the way. What does this have to do with you?"

"Hey, I'm not sticking to you. What's it to you?" Wei Shiliu glared back unwillingly.

"This is my master. If you want to find someone, go find your own master." Chunmei was still a little angry with Yu Xun. Wei Shiliu was simply dragged down by his master.

"Don't talk about me. My master has to stick to your master when he comes here."

Listening to the two people's bickering, Li Nan couldn't hide the smile on her lips. Such days were so good, so she would never allow anyone to ruin this leisurely life.

Because of Chunmei, Li returned to the general's mansion and stopped living in the dungeon to torture Qin'er. The happiest person about this was Yu Xun. However, Chunmei was in charge of Li's diet, and Yu Xun had no chance to intervene. He could only stay in the west courtyard and eat for free. Fortunately, with Yu Xiaochen, a lively guy, the atmosphere was not bad.

Including Yu Xiaochen, the number of people in the West Courtyard increased from three to five. With the addition of Chunmei and Wei Shiliu, it became the most crowded and lively courtyard in the mansion.

On this day, several people were excitedly preparing to have a barbecue in the west courtyard. Receiving a hint from his master, Wei Shiliu quickly pulled Chunmei to the side to compete, and the barbecue finally fell on Yu Xun's head.

Yu Xun, who finally had room to perform, felt very motivated. He just focused on delivering the grilled skewers to Li and completely ignored his little nephew who was staring at him eagerly.

I have to say that Yu Xun is very talented in grilling meat. Li nodded in approval, but before he had eaten a few skewers, his expression turned ugly, and he spat out a mouthful of black blood.

Yu Xiaochen jumped up in shock and exclaimed, "Uncle, did you poison my sister?!"

The two men who were fighting fiercely suddenly stopped and appeared next to Li the next moment. One of them supported Li with his hand while the other took her pulse.

Chunmei turned the knife in her hand and pointed it at the stunned Yu Xun. "What did you do to the young lady?"

Wei Shiliu pursed his lips and reminded, "Chunmei, the princess's pulse is normal."

"I don't believe you." Chunmei looked at Wei Shiliu with unkind eyes. She stretched out her hand to pull Li into her arms and protected her. "Miss, how are you? Hang in there. I'll take you to see a doctor right away."

"I'm not poisoned, I'm fine." Li tugged at Chunmei's sleeve, endured the pain in his abdomen, turned his head to look at the pool of black blood she had just vomited, and indeed noticed something strange.

"Xiao Chen, close your eyes." When Li's spiritual power turned into arrows and attacked the unidentified object, he did not forget to remind Yu Xiaochen.

"Ouch, it hurts!" A cute cry of pain rang out in the yard.

The dark spiritual power dissipated, and a small black scorpion appeared in front of everyone. The strange thing was that it was growing at an alarming speed, and the surrounding black blood was completely absorbed by it. As the blood disappeared, it also changed from a small insect the size of a fingernail to a giant scorpion as big as two palms of an adult man.

Except for Yu Xiaochen who closed his eyes obediently, the others all gasped. If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would never believe that this scene was real.

The spiritual power in Li's hand gathered again, scaring the giant scorpion opposite so much that its tail needle stood up, "Master, master, don't do it, it's me, Tanghulu."

"I'm going to hit you." Li threw the spiritual power in her hand mercilessly, "Damn it, I'll beat you to death."

"!!" Tanghulu was so frightened that he quickly ran away. The "crunching" sound of the scorpion crawling made everyone's scalp tingle.

Chunmei was relieved to see Li's condition, so she put away the sword in her hand and skillfully covered Yu Xiaochen's ears. The West Courtyard was immediately filled with curses.

Yu Xun was still a little shocked, his eyes were fixed on Li, and he didn't care that the skewers on the grill were burnt. Although it was just a mistake, it made Yu Xun realize a problem. It was not reasonable for the Northern King to give the first bite of food to his wife. What if the food was poisonous? Wouldn't that mean that his wife would test the poison herself?

The fight between Li and Tanghulu ended with Tanghulu's earth-shaking cry.

"Shut up. If you cry again, I'll kick your tail." Li rubbed his eyebrows irritably.

Tanghulu stopped crying immediately, "Master, please don't hit me anymore, or I will cry again."

Li ignored it and turned back to sit on the swing. "Let's just play our own game and ignore it."

"Uh, Princess, you're really fine." Wei Shiliu withdrew his gaze from the giant scorpion with difficulty. He was really curious about this creature that could speak human language.

"It's okay." Li waved his hands. What could be a big deal now that the impurities in the body have been discharged.

Chunmei breathed a sigh of relief and took over the barbecue task from Yu Xun.

Yu Xiaochen couldn't help but sneak a peek through her fingers because she was too curious. She carefully moved to Li's side and asked, "Sister, will it bite?"

"Want to play with it?" Li looked at the brave little brat in front of him and rubbed his head. "It won't bite. If you're not afraid, just go ahead."

Yu Xiaochen's eyes lit up after getting permission. He asked Wei Shiliu to break off a branch for him and then took people to play bug poking.

Everyone recovered from the shock and found something to do. Li turned his attention to Yu Xun, who was still in a trance. Seeing that the other party was about to pass the charred skewer of meat to his mouth, Li quickly stood up and snatched it away, "General, what are you doing? Are you scared?"

Li's approach finally brought Yu Xun out of his own world. He looked at the black skewer of meat in Li's hand and said, "This skewer is burnt and cannot be eaten."

"Are you really scared by me?" Li chuckled and threw away the barbecue in her hand. Did she remind the wrong person just now? She should have asked Yu Xun to close his eyes. This man was even more timid than Xiao Chen.

"I thought... you were really poisoned." Yu Xun sighed. His heart almost stopped in fear. "No matter who gives you food in the future, don't take the first bite."

"Including you, General?" Li raised his eyebrows. He knew what this person was afraid of.

"including me."

Yu Xun nodded seriously and said that he would eat the first bite of food given to Li from now on.
