The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife - Chapter 181-1

Xiao Liulang looked at Marquis Xuanping. Marquis Xuanping also looked at Xiao Liulang.

A look of shock flashed across their eyes at the same time.

Xiao Liulang didn’t expect him to turn back and wait for him here.

Marquis Xuanping didn’t expect for such a teenager to appear before him when he went out his way to block people.

He simply just had the same feeling as he had back at the posthouse.

The difference was that this time it was more intense, so he was sure that whoever was giving him such a feeling was hiding nearby.

He deliberately walked far away to make the other party relax their vigilance and then quietly turned back—— a tactic commonly used on the battlefield. He knew martial arts, so it wasn’t difficult to execute.

The hard part was right now.

Looking at the face before him, his eyes were filled with disbelief.

“Lord, Lord Marquis, you walk way too fast…” Steward Liu, who was left so far behind, arrived in a hurry, “Huh? Where’s His Seventh Highness? He’s not with Lord Marquis?”

He took another way and missed Eunuch Su and his party.

When he finished speaking, he didn’t hear any answer from his Lord Marquis. He looked at his Lord Marquis and found his figure seemingly immobilized, standing motionless at the door of a classroom and looking into the classroom.

He came forward wondering, and also looked into the classroom.

He was shocked to see the person inside!

He opened his eyes wide and called, “Young Master?”

Director Zheng followed Marquis Xuanping when he went outside. Halfway through, Marquis Xuanping quickly turned back, and his speed was so fast that he could hardly catch up. He just arrived at this moment.

He was a little confused by the voice that called out ‘young master’.

What was going on?

It wasn’t just Marquis Xuanping himself who came here? Was his son here too? And he went into their classroom?

Marquis Xuanping looked at Steward Liu with a heavy look, asking, “What did you call him?”

Steward Liu repeated, “Young master!”

“Which young master?” Marquis Xuanping continued to ask Steward Liu as his eyes fell back on Xiao Liulang’s face.

The trace of surprise from the unexpected meeting on his face had already disappeared and was replaced by extreme calm.

Steward Liu replied, “It’s the young master studying at the imperial academy that this one has told Lord Marquis about. He is the son of Yunniang.”

Xiao Liulang’s mother was surnamed Chen and her full name was Chen Yunniang. Her neighbors called her Lady Shisan. [T/N: Shisan is thirteen.]

“Is that so? That’s him?” Marquis Xuanping stared at Xiao Liulang for a good while. His eyes seemed calm, but there was an endless undercurrent within them.

All of a sudden, he removed his hand from his hand warmer pillow, touched Xiao Liulang’s face, and rubbed his thumb against the lower part of his right eye. After a long time, nothing came out.

His aura began to become violent, “Where’s your mole? Where did the mole go? Hey?”

Steward Liu was at a loss.

What mole?

Had Lord Marquis seen this young master before?

Before Xiao Liulang was born, Lord Marquis had already left Yunniang and went back to the capital!

During winter four years ago, Xiao Liulang and his brother came to the capital, but unfortunately they didn’t meet Lord Marquis.

So why did Marquis have this kind of reaction?

Xiao Liulang didn’t move, allowing Marquis Xuanping to rub the spot under his right eye till it turned red. At last, his eyes looking at Marquis Xuanping cooled down a little, and it seemed to be mixed with a trace of anger that he didn’t know how to vent.

“You’ve got the wrong person.” He said calmly and coldly, “I’ve never had a mole there.”

Marquis Xuanping put down his hand and clenched it into a fist.

“Please excuse me.” Xiao Liulang no longer paid him attention and walked past him while leaning on his crutch.

Marquis Xuanping looked at his limping figure, and there was another violent storm in his eyes!

Xiao Liulang went to the opposite classroom, put the baby falcon in Little Jing Kong’s book bag, hung it on his arm, and picked up Little Jing Kong.

Little Jing Kong faintly opened his eyes in a daze. When he saw that it was Xiao Liulang, he lowered his little head on his shoulder and slept peacefully.

Children who didn’t take naps were more prone to being mentally vulnerable.

Xiao Liulang, carrying Little Jing Kong in one arm and leaning on crutches in the other, came out of Imperial Academy’s private elementary division under Marquis Xuanping’s complicated gaze.

“That’s him! That’s them!” Director Zheng wanted to denounce Xiao Liulang and Little Jing Kong in front of Marquis Xuanping, but he just barely opened his mouth when he felt that the atmosphere did not seem right. Marquis Xuanping was currently enveloped in such a terrifying aura as though he was ready to kill someone at any moment, so he quickly shut his mouth.

After Xiao Liulang disappeared completely from his sight, Marquis Xuanping also left the Imperial Academy.

Director Zheng looked curiously into the classroom, “Huh? There’s no one else here? Who did Marquis Xuanping’s people call young master just now?”

Teacher Sun, who had been in the corridor all this time and had the honor to witness the whole process, said in a cold sweat, “Well, it seems to be that Imperial Academy student from Shuaixing Hall.”

Director Zheng scoffed, “Do you mean Xiao Liulang? Ha, come on, how can the likes of him be the young master of Marquis Xuanping Estate? His age doesn’t fit either!”

If Marquis Xuanping had a son of this age, it was only Little Marquis, but Little Marquis had long been dead.

“He isn’t Marquis Xuanping’s illegitimate child outside, is he? Hahahahahahaha… ” As soon as Director Zheng finished laughing, he fainted!

Marquis Xuanping got into the carriage upon coming out of the Imperial Academy.

Chang Jing was holding Qin Chuyu who lost his voice from fright after his trip onto roofs and over walls.

“Lord Marquis, what about him?” Asked Chang Jing.

Marquis Xuanping was feeling very upset at the moment, “Send him back to the palace!”

Chang Jing thought for a moment before replying, “Oh.”

Lord Marquis didn’t say how he should send him back, so Chang Jing started another trip onto roofs and over walls with Qin Chuyu in his arms.

Qin Chuyu didn’t even have the strength to cry anymore!

What a terrible punishment from his uncle ah!

He would never get into trouble again!

After getting into the carriage, Marquis Xuanping couldn’t calm down for a long time. His eyes were cold and his fingers trembled, “What’s going on?”

This question was directed at Steward Liu.

Steward Liu lifted the curtain and got into the carriage, then said a bit awkwardly, “What does Lord Marquis want to know?”

“Is he the son of Yunniang?”

“Yes.”

“How did you find him? Tell this Marquis all of it carefully!”

“… Yes!” Steward Liu gave a full detailed account of his experience in searching for Xiao Liulang. “It started about four years ago.”

Xiao Liulang and his elder brother came to the capital to meet Marquis Xuanping. At first, he didn’t disclose his identity, only that he was an old friend of Marquis Xuanping and had something to give to Marquis Xuanping.
