Chapter 544: Mother Xu: "Mother, you are pretending to be a concubine!"
???
"What's going on? Did I poke this silly old woman silly with just one finger?"
Li Mu quickly dodged.
Unexpectedly, Xu's mother hugged Li Mu's arm and signaled him not to move.
He glared at Li Mu fiercely, then turned back to complaining, somewhat self-pityingly,
"I'm sorry to my humble husband, I hope Your Majesty will keep his promise... Don't, don't... Wuwuwu~"
Seeing this, the muscles on Li Mu's face twitched and he looked at Xu Doudou for help.
But she looked serious despite a blush on her face, and even nodded at Li Mu as if to seek credit.
It’s like saying, “Don’t worry, I’ve got it all figured out!”
"Fuck you, isn't this your mother? Your father isn't dead yet!"
Li Mu roared in his heart, but Xu's mother stood on tiptoe, stretched out her hands to hug Li Mu's neck, put her head close to his ear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear,
"Doudou has already told me that the overall situation is more important. Your Highness does not need to feel embarrassed."
???
"What did he say? Did he reveal my hobby? Pah! I don't have such a hobby at all!"
Li Mu would never have thought that Xu Doudou would set such a big trap for him when she was talking with Cangzhi.
......
A little earlier, inside the cubicle.
Mother Xu covered her chest, looked at the back of the man who had brought her back and left, frowned and asked,
"Doudou, who is she?"
"Li, Li Mu." Xu Doudou lowered her head slightly, looking a little shy.
Of course, Xu's father and mother had also heard the well-known story.
However, when they asked Xu Doudou whether she was really interested in the man in the picture book, Xu Doudou did not deny it for some reason.
Therefore, Xu's father and mother have always known that their daughter had been cheated, and the news was compiled into a book and spread everywhere.
What's more, there are not only ordinary teahouse storytelling versions of Yaksha Heroes, but also some special versions written in the laws of Xing Dynasty.
As a loving mother who cares about her daughter, she would of course buy it and criticize it.
In addition, Li Mu had a reputation as a playboy, and Xu's mother had long since determined that Li Mu was not a good match!
Hearing Xu Doudou's words, Xu's mother frowned instantly, but after a moment, she still sighed slightly,
"Forget it. This time it's all thanks to the prince. I wonder how many soldiers the court has sent. When will we go to rescue your father?"
"Well, mother... the court hasn't sent troops yet."
When she heard that they had to rescue her father, Xu Doudou's face turned a little ugly and she spoke hesitantly.
Hearing this, Xu's mother's eyes flashed with surprise, and she looked towards the bedroom again, wondering,
"Could it be that the King of Yan sent out troops without authorization? I never thought that this young master would go to such lengths for you."
"Doudou, tell the prince that there is no time to lose. Let's go find your father and the elders as soon as possible. After rescuing them, we will hand over the dead branch to Prince Yan's Mansion."
Mother Xu grabbed Xu Doudou's hand and said anxiously,
"That thing can be used to nourish divine weapons, and King Yan has Shuo Lei in his hand, so he will definitely not refuse."
Seeing her mother so anxious, Xu Doudou pursed her lips and gritted her teeth,
"Mom, there are no soldiers, just me and Li Mu!"
Immediately, Xu's mother was obviously stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief,
"Just the two of you? How did you get into the city? There are heavy soldiers guarding outside the city. How can you two break through the bloody army formation?"
"Oh, mother!" Xu Doudou said in a coquettish voice. How would she know what a military formation was?
She just curled up in Li Mu's arms, her eyes closed and opened, and that's when she came here.
When Xu's mother saw Xu Doudou like this, she became more and more anxious, and her tone became a little angry.
"Kid, you are so willful on weekdays, but we spent so much effort to send you out, why, why..."
"Tell me, was it that dandy prince who bewitched you to come here? Could it be that the Prince of Yan has also rebelled?"
"No, no, Li Mu, he... is right! Li Mu has a way. Didn't he save mother?"
Xu Doudou hurriedly explained and told Xu's mother that Li Mu had subdued Cangzhi and pretended to be King Jiang.
Xu's mother had never liked Li Mu, and now that he was getting better, Xu Doudou didn't want Xu's mother to misunderstand him.
"The other farm disciples have already left the city. Li Mu has saved mother, and now only father is left. He will definitely be able to save father!"
Xu Doudou spoke with a firm tone. At this moment, Li Mu was like a god in her heart.
If it weren't for Li Mu, her mother would probably be gone by now.
After hearing Xu Doudou's explanation, Xu's mother gradually calmed down. Thinking of the scene when Li Mu had taken action before, a look of shock flashed in her eyes.
"At this age, he is already a martial artist at the Transformation Realm. It seems that rumors cannot be trusted completely."
"Impersonating King Jiang...although it's a bit risky, it's still a good idea. It's brave and resourceful. It seems that my mother is narrow-minded!"
Mother Xu nodded to herself, and her evaluation of Li Mu changed to praise.
"Isn't it? Li Mu is really amazing! I have never seen the way he dealt with those barbarians before. I didn't expect that he was at the level of transformation!"
Xu Doudou's face was filled with joy. She seemed to be happier to see her mother praising Li Mu than praising herself.
Seeing her daughter's worthless appearance, Xu's mother sighed slightly, reached out and touched Xu Doudou's forehead, and said,
"I wonder what the prince is going to do next. The strength of the Rongyi people should not be underestimated, not to mention those shadow warriors and the Dawn Army!"
Xu Doudou rubbed his forehead, frowned slightly, lowered his head a little embarrassedly, and whispered,
"These, these should be asked by mother herself."
"She hid it from you?" Mother Xu's face changed, and she felt confused. Logically speaking, there was no need to hide it if she was willing to risk her life for Xu Doudou.
"No, no... I, I didn't ask. I just stayed by his side, pretending to be her captive, captive concubine."
Xu Doudou hurriedly explained, fearing that Xu's mother would feel resentful towards Li Mu.
Seeing this, how could Xu's mother not understand her daughter's temper? It was obvious that she had regarded the other party as her only guard of honor.
Even if he was sold out, he was willing to help count the money.
Mother Xu lowered her head and pondered, analyzing the current situation. After a long while, she spoke:
"Mother won't wear this maid's clothes. Find her a set of clothes that are similar to yours."
"Mom?" Xu Doudou asked puzzledly.
Soon, Xu's mother said, "The prince is indeed thoughtful. Only by pretending to be a captured concubine can he keep her by his side at all times and better protect you."
"Mother will also pretend to be a concubine so that she can protect you closely in case of emergency."
"???" Xu Doudou felt a little confused, "No, how could mother..."
"Why, do you feel that mom is old and not as pretty and graceful as you?" Mother Xu frowned, with a look of displeasure on her face.
Xu Doudou was speechless, and she felt that what her mother said made sense, so she had to go to the closet to look for clothes in a strange way, but she still felt a little weird in her heart.
Mother Xu changed into her palace dress and put on some rouge. She looked at herself in the bronze mirror with satisfaction and said,
"The poison of the Rongyi people is really strong. If the prince can get the antidote, mother is confident that she can get you all out!"
"Mom, have you been poisoned?" Xu Doudou was shocked when she heard that. No wonder she felt something was wrong since just now.
Mother Xu nodded, a gloomy look flashed in her eyes, "Poison that blocks the true energy! If it weren't for these villains using poison, even thousands of troops would not be able to stop us."
"However, the young master's method of impersonating King Jiang is just a coincidence. It may not be possible to rescue your father directly at the moment, but if we can get the antidote for this poison..."
"Mom... I was also poisoned before." Xu Doudou thought about it and felt that it would be better not to hide it at this time.
When she escaped, she did feel the blockage of internal energy in her body, but her cultivation was low and the poison was only shallow, so the effect of the poison on her was not obvious.
But there was no sign of poisoning on her body now.
All these were the result of her being drugged by Cang Zhi and becoming obsessed with Li Mu.
Xu Doudou gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and told everything to Xu's mother.
Hearing this, Xu's mother's face changed for a moment, and she said after a long pause, "Doudou, what you said is true!"
