Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder's Self-Redemption (2)[MTL]

Chapter 18 A Few Things About the Little Emperor

Qiming went out for a walk and ran into Liu Sheng who was looking for him. The two returned to Liu Sheng's residence and Qiming told Liu Sheng what happened after he got separated from everyone.

　　Liu Sheng was shocked when he heard this and asked nervously, "What, brothel, Regent's Palace? How could this happen? Young Master, did they do anything to you?"

　　Looking at the nervous Liu Sheng, Qiming said soothingly: "Teacher, don't worry, the student is intact."

　　Liu Sheng asked in disbelief, "Is it really intact? Young Master, you don't have to comfort me. If, if you are upset, you can talk to me."

　　Almost everyone knows what kind of personality and hobbies Li Hao has. With Gong Ming's appearance, how could he be intact when he was sent to the Regent's Palace? So Liu Sheng thought Qiming was comforting him, so he said that he was intact.

　　Seeing the tears welling up in Liu Sheng's eyes because of guilt, Qiming was deeply moved. Like Liu Sheng, they relied on their loyalty to their master, hiding their identities and insisting on raising Gong Ming, and taught him to be a man of both civil and military talents. Moreover, they clearly recognized their own identities, always acting as subordinates, without the slightest overstepping their authority. Such people are admirable.

　　Qiming smiled and said, "Teacher, do you think I have ever suffered? If I say I am unscathed, I mean it. I am not lying!"

　　Liu Sheng carefully observed Qiming's expression and saw that he was indeed not gloomy at all, and his face was ruddy and not sick at all. He was relieved and said thankfully: "Fortunately, fortunately the young master is fine, otherwise I would have to commit suicide to apologize."

　　Qiming changed the subject and said, "Teacher, why are you coming to Kyoto?"

　　Liu Sheng pushed Qiming to sit on the chair, poured him a glass of water, and then slowly said: "Since we got separated from the young master, our subordinates have been looking for him everywhere, but we can't find him. We dare not make it public, so we can only go to various cities to investigate secretly. Han Zhan went to Nancheng, and I came to Kyoto. The others went to other cities."

　　"Teacher, you can call them back. The students will probably stay in Kyoto for a long time in the future."

　　Liu Sheng asked in confusion: "Why? Since the young master has left the Regent's Palace, there is absolutely no reason for him to go back. The young master should have heard about Li Hao's temperament. Just because the young master is unharmed now does not mean that he will be unharmed in the future."

　　Qiming said seriously: "Teacher, I have reasons to stay here."

　　"What's the reason? I can't let the young master fall into danger and turn a deaf ear to it. If anything happens to the young master, how can we be worthy of the princess's entrustment!"

　　"What if mother is not dead?"

　　Liu Sheng's eyes widened in shock, and he said in disbelief, "How is it possible? I saw with my own eyes the princess and her husband being engulfed in flames, how could they have survived? Young Master, how could you have such a guess?"

　　"I learned about it from Regent Li Hao by chance."

　　"Li Hao?" Liu Sheng frowned and asked, "Young Master, you haven't told me yet how you were able to remain unscathed in the Regent's Palace?"

Qiming said calmly, "There is no need to go into detail. Teacher, you just need to know that I am now Li Hao's staff. The reason why I want to stay in the Regent's Palace is to track down my mother's whereabouts and the truth behind Nalan's destruction of the country. As for my safety, don't worry, teacher, I have my own plans."
