The house door cracked.
Liu He went to open it, and when he saw Zaoli outside the door, he said solemnly: “This is Rong’s mansion, why are you making so much noise?”
Zaoli knew Rong’s house, but they acted according to orders and did not care much. They only said loudly: “Rong Shangshu is concerned about the country and the people. If he knows that the fugitive has sneaked into Linxi, he will find it immediately to prevent the fugitive from disturbing the people.”
Liu He originally wanted to use the power of the minister to suppress their arrogance, but he was restrained by the other party’s cunning words. Their words were high-sounding and could not be refuted, so he had to let them into the house.
There were ten Zaoli in total, all wearing soap clothes and carrying long swords on their waists. They walked arrogantly and rudely. Without waiting for Liu He to lead them, they searched various courtyard rooms on their own.
All rooms had been searched, except for the master bedroom.
Zaoli’s eyes were fierce, and they went straight to where Rong Xi was.
The doors and windows of the master bedroom were closed. Liu Zishi wanted to buy paper and ink, but he saw Zaoli halfway. He quickly returned to the house and followed Rong Xi’s orders to guard outside, with a slightly frightened look on his face.
Zaoli, sharp-eyed and sharp-minded, sneered. If there is nothing amiss, how could he be so guilty? The ten people were full of evil spirits and wanted to kick in the door.
Liu Zishi hurriedly stopped them, but was thrown down the stairs by Zaoli. He injured his knee and was unable to get up for a long time.
The door of the house fell down with a bang, and Zaoli rushed in. No one was seen in the room, but the curtains were all down, and they didn’t know what was going on inside the bed.
The leader had already concluded that the fugitive was located here. He immediately took out his long sword from its sheath, and with the cold light, the tip of the sword probed the curtain.
The curtain lifted, and a plump face appeared in front of him.
Rong Xi’s clothes were disheveled, his chest was exposed, there seemed to be fine sweat on his cheeks and his hair was stained, and his face had an ambiguous spring look.
He glared angrily, slipped on his shoes, and his eyes were as cold as a knife.
Knowing his identity, the leader sheathed his sword to avoid being accidentally stabbed, and said forcefully: “It is my responsibility to disturb Young Master Rong. However, I came to search for serious offenders under the order of the county magistrate. I hope young master Rong will forgive me.”
After he finished speaking, he wanted to stretch out his arms to wrap around the curtain.
Just a “swish” sound was heard, the sword came out of the wooden scabbard, and Rong Xi held the sword on the leader’s neck, extremely arrogant and domineering, “The Mengshan County government enforces the law; it is so barbaric. The performance’s evaluation period is coming, and although my father is busy with government affairs, he can also take some time to read letters. I have been in Linxi for about a month, and I am just about to write a letter.”
The leader was slightly shocked.
Rong Shangshu was in charge of the official assessment, and Cao County Magistrate of Mengshan County hoped to be promoted this year. If he missed the opportunity, his anger would surely burn on them.
“Please do not be angry, young master Rong. It’s my fault for being reckless just now. It was only because the suspect was cunning and I was eager to pursue him that I accidentally disturbed young master Rong.”
Rong Xi threw the knife on the ground, and the sound of the knife hitting the bricks made people’s hearts skip a beat.

“Master Rong.”
The person on the bed called out softly in a low voice, which was charming and captivating.
Rong Xi was surprised and hurried forward, covered the person’s shoulders with a quilt, and coaxed softly: “Don’t be upset, I will drive them away right now.”
Zaoli: “…”
The rumors didn’t deceive them, the Rong family’s oldest son really loved men. However, with such beauty that could not be distinguished between male and female, many people in the world would be intoxicated too.
The curtains had just been raised, and the leader had already glanced at the bed. There was a beautiful person on the bed. The bottom of the bed was low, making it impossible to hide anyone. It seemed that there was no fugitive.
The leader bowed and said, “Excuse me.” Then he wanted to leave.
“Wait a minute.” Rong Xi shouted to stop.
The leader turned his head with confusion in his eyes.
The beautiful person on the couch also didn’t understand Rong Xu’s intention and lifted his gaze to look.
Rong Xi slightly raised his round chin and said, “Just leave the money to repair the door and pay it according to the market price.”
This was indeed Zaoli’s rude fault. The leader was wrong and feared the authority of the minister, so he had no choice but to leave eighty coins and leave.
The gate of Rong’s mansion was closed again.
After Rong Xi washed up, he went to the guest room, bowed slightly to Chen Dalang, and said apologetically: “I have offended you a lot just now. Please forgive me, Master Chen Dalang.”
His gaze was clear, his manners impeccable, easily evoking a favorable impression from others.
“Master Rong is serious. You just helped me avoid the search. I am very grateful.” Chen Dalang leaned on the couch, a thin layer of sweat appearing on his forehead.
Just now, he swiftly moved to the master bedroom and shared a bed with Rong. Unexpectedly, it aggravated his leg injury, and now the wound was bleeding. Chen Chuangu was currently rebandaging it for him.
While sitting on the master’s couch, Chen Dalang secretly observed Rong Xi and saw that his eyes were clear and his heartbeat was steady. He showed no sign of excitement. He kept his distance from him without touching him.
He was here to apologize, probably because of that clear “heart”.
Chen Dalang chuckled, and when he saw Rong Xi, he was gentle and said: “We put your place in danger, so we should be the ones to apologize.”
Due to Zaoli’s surprise attack, Chen Erlang and three others flew up the beam to hide. However, Chen Dalang suffered a leg injury and could not support himself on the beam, so he had to perform a lively performance with Rong Xi.
Rong Xi had a bad reputation and was known to be fond of men. It was normal for him to have a beautiful person on his bed. But after this, his name would be even more despised.
If Rong Shangshu were to hear of this, his blood would boil, and family discipline would be in order.
Everyone knew the consequences of this.
Chen Chuangu looked solemn and bowed deeply to Rong Xi. The reputation of a scholar was like the chastity of a woman. They were extremely grateful for Rong Xi’s sacrifice.
Chen Erlang also nodded and smiled, “I will keep your kindness in mind, Master Rong.”
“You don’t have to be like this. Since you are staying at Rong’s house, this is what I should do.” Rong Xi shook his head and said with a smile.
He didn’t care about reputation.
After this day, Rong Xi’s name once again became a topic of conversation.
When the news reached Shengjing, Rong Shangshu was extremely angry. He called Rong Xi a “treasonous son” and sat quietly in his study all night.
Inside the Rong’s ancestral house, everything was calm.
As soon as the morning light came out, the sky was filled with a morning glow. Liu Zishi squatted in the courtyard, sweating like rain, but showing no signs of giving up.
To express his gratitude, Chen Erlang sent his servants to teach Liu Zishi how to practice martial arts.
Liu Zishi was physically strong, and he was better at practicing martial arts than studying calligraphy. After the servant tested him, he said that Liu Zishi had some talent and could be successful in martial arts.
The young man was extremely excited. He used to not know where to use his strength. Now that he could practice martial arts, it was exactly to his liking. If he learned superior martial arts, he could protect his young master.
A few days later, Chen Dalang’s leg injury gradually recovered. Occasionally, he would not stay in bed and walk a few steps to the courtyard to instruct Liu Zishi.
Chen Chuangu was already familiar with Rong Xi, so he leaned close to him and joked: “It’s a blessing to have a master to give the young man guidance.”
“Chen Dalang’s generosity is indeed a blessing for the child.” Rong Xi picked the bean sprouts from the bucket and put them into the bamboo basket.
His fair and tender hands were even more delicate than bean sprouts. Chen Chuangu looked up at Rong Xi’s face and saw that his forehead was full and his eyebrows were like sharp blades. Although the rest of his features were somewhat obscured by the excess flesh, one could still see his true beauty.
Rong Shangshu has a good appearance. Rong Xi’s biological mother is also praised for her appearance. Both of them are slender. Why is Rong Xi so fat?
As a doctor, Chen Chuangu had a keen mind on matters like this.
“Brother Rong, I’m feeling itchy for a moment. Would you like to take a pulse?” His tone was teasing, but his expression was solemn.
Rong Xi seemed to be aware of it. Hearing this, he smiled and said, “I dare not refuse brother Chen’s kindness .”
He placed the bamboo basket in the kitchen, entered the main hall with Chen Chuangu, sat down cross-legged, and stretched his arms across the table.
Seeing that he trusted him so much, Chen Chuangu felt mixed feelings in his heart. He calmed down his mind and diagnosed Rong Xi’s pulse seriously.
For a moment, the fingertips left Ring Xu’s wrist.
“Brother Rong, were you often sick as a child?” The handsome young man frowned.
Rong Xi received the memory of his original body, pondered for a moment, and replied: “Brother Chen has remarkable skills. When I was young, I was often ill. My mother took pity on me and gave me a lot of tonics, which resulted in my current appearance.”
Rong Shangshu got his current wife when Rong Xi was one year old. Chen Chuangu knew that the mother mentioned by Rong Xi should be his stepmother.
Chen Chuangu didn’t want to get involved in other people’s affairs, but Rong Xi really caught his eye, and he didn’t want him to be burdened by his health.
“Brother Rong, do you know the principle of not accepting supplements?”
Rong Xi looked slightly surprised and his eyes flickered, “I would like to hear the details.”
Chen Chuangu sighed deeply: “In your childhood, you were weak and should have been carefully nurtured, avoiding excessive tonics. Consuming such tonics would not only be ineffective but would also burden your body, leading to weakness and obesity.”
Continuing like this will breed even more illnesses.
Chen Chuangu didn’t voice this sentiment, but Rong Xi already understood.
“Thanks for the guidance, Brother Chen.” Rong Xi didn’t want to suffer from premature aging again, so he asked, “I wonder if there is a solution to my health issue?”
Chen Chuangu was about to answer when he saw the servant arriving in a hurry.
“Doctor Chen, we have a visitor in the house. Master Erlang calls you to go to the guest room.”
Chen Chuangu had no choice but to get up and quickly go to the guest room. However, he saw the person entering the house from the corridor. He was tall and strong, carrying an almost semicircular object in his hand, which was very strange.
What is that?
