Translator: LiamHW

Thinking so, that man suddenly got even more wrathful. But just as he was about to vent the outrage out, an immature sound was heard all of a sudden.

“Ha ha ha, Bee Beard!”

With an alert in mind, Song Qinghan got tense with his every single nerve strained suddenly. But just at the moment he was reaching out to cover Little Shitou’s head with the mantle, a harsh command sounded in front of him.

“Don’t move! Is that… Is that your child?”

The innocent Little Shitou had no idea that an upcoming danger was approaching. At the moment he noticed that Song Qinghan’s expression froze, he thought he was the one who annoyed Song Qinghan right at current moment, and then he took the initiative to reached out to pick up the mantle with his little chubby hands and hid himself right under it.

Song Qinghan was amused by Little Shitou’s adorable action while his expression seemed to relieve. In his mind he told himself that he had to protect his baby no matter what was going to happen. In that thought, he took a deep breath and then raised his head abruptly staring at the man, “So what?”

The man became rather speechless again. Wasn’t Song Qinghan the one who made mistake? How come the man become the one to be interrogated now?

But when he took the second glance at Little Shitou’s chubby hands which was exposed outside, he sighed with resignation himself and then tried his best to lower his voice volume, “Bring him over and let me check him out, where are your family members? Don’t you think it is too risky bringing him here?”

Song Qinghan hesitated for a moment, he finally came to know that his current situation was disadvantageous to himself, so he had to be obedient and then brought Little Shitou over and showed him to that man. Noticing that the man had already stretched forth his arms, Song Qinghan was rather reluctant to deliver and pretended not to see any movement of the man.

It seemed that it was Little Shitou who was wiser to detect the embarrassment between the two, he stretched forth his arms either in responding the man’s warm invitation, and he smiled big, babbling, “Hug!”

The man suddenly got all the wrath on his face dissipated, and then turned to hug Little Shitou over in his arms at his convenience. As soon as he touched Little Shitou’s body which was rather soft and meantime delivered a faint milk fragrance, it seemed that all the traumas in his mind was consoled without trace.

Alas, he had to fight, not only for the peace of the country, but also for these adorable kids. That was what ambition he had nursed in his pursuit.

Well, Little Shitou seemed to be not merely an angel when he behaved rather obediently, as soon as he finally sat on the leg of that man, he turned ‘evil’. He couldn’t help but reach out to pull several beard off on the man’s chin with his ‘demon’s claw’, and burst into laughter after the man screamed out of pain.

After witnessing the crime scene, Song Qinghan got even tenser. He hurried to bring Little Shitou back in his arms, grasped over the ‘dead beards’ in his hands and then placed them on the table aside. Embarrassed, he turned to speak to the man, apologizing awkwardly, “Lord, he is just a child without a mature mind…”

It seemed that Little Shitou wasn’t satisfied with that self entertainment, he clapped his hands while cheered, “Bee Beard! Bee Beard!”

Noticing that Song Qinghan was using his palm to cover Little Shitou’s mouth, the man felt quite concerned and then he waved his hand and spoke to Song QInghan, “What are you doing? You will suffocate him, let go, and I will carry him for some moments.”

Song Qinghan stared at the messy beard of the man, he eventually still handed Little Shitou over to him after a short while of pondering, and at the same time he reminded, “He got a lightning hands, you’d better watch out, Lord…”

In fact, the man had already pinched slightly on Little Shitou’s hands before Song Qinghan came to make such a notification. But not long he released again after he detected the unwillingness of the child. Instead of suppressing the kid’s physical strength, he chose to dodge the ‘attack’ agilely having fun with him.

Noticing that the man seemed having fun with Little Shitou currently, Song Qinghan pondered for a brief moment, and then came to utter, “Are you free currently, Lord? If you are, would you please do me a big favor taking care of him? I will go clean the chamber pot.”

The man was completely stunned when he heard so, seemingly he had never expected that Song Qinghan would entrust him and choose to leave Little Shitou alone with him. But he still nodded and responded, “Go and take your time, come back and pick the child up after you finish your duty. What a poor baby, look how skinny he is! He must be starving right now. I happen to get some curds here, I can make some heated milk for him.”

Song Qinghan glanced left and right, he never thought that someone would describe Little Shitou as a skinny child since he was still chubby and healthy. But he did not refuse at all, and then saluted to the man, saying, “Thank you so much, Lord, I appreciate it. And now I will leave for my duty.”

After that, he picked up the chamber pot in the tent directly and left without hesitation. How he reacted seemingly demonstrated that Little Shitou wasn’t his own child at all.

Little Shitou raised his head to stare at Song Qinghan’s back while his lips pursed suddenly, he moaned slightly as if he was about to burst out crying the next moment. But after he caught a glimpse of the man’s tensing expression, he stretched forth his hands again and pulled the beards quickly, laughing.Read More at wuxiax.com

The man lamented his poor beards, shook his head, and then carried Little Shitou up in his arms as if he had admit defeat to the fate, while heading to heat the curd up.

Without a burden carried in arms, Song Qinghan acted quickly and finally finished his duty within his duty area. But he did not rush back to the man’s tent and pick Little Shitou up. Instead, he secretly managed to sneak into the area where the Imperial Guards stayed, and he hid himself in the darkness and commenced observing.

The assignation task among the Imperial Guards team wasn’t that accurate falling to every single personnel. So currently, he had no idea to fix the precise location where Wu Dahu stayed. What he could do now was speculate the rough spot where Wu Dahu probably would show up according to his understanding on the whole team of Imperial Guards.

It was obviously that the femina man did not work diligently as Song Qinghan did. He didn’t finish his duty yet since Song Qinghan had already stood there for quite a long while.

Moreover, probably because the Imperial Guards were all sent by the state capital directly, the rule seemed to rein even more strictly here. Song Qinghan had already witnessed the femina man kneeling several times, and not merely that, each kneeling time for him indeed exceeded a quarter. He knelt there not daring to move a bit.

Even though the femina man failed to control his emotion when he faced with Song Qinghan, he could be a master of controlling his expression currently when he faced with these soldiers instead. Not even a trace of dissatisfaction could be found on his face even now he was shivering all over his body kneeling.

As failing to make a further successful speculation, Song Qinghan intended to leave. But just at the moment he rosed and turned, he found that there were several Imperial Guards were gathering and approaching from afar.

The leader among the team was no one else, but the one who had run in Song Qinghan’s mind all the day – Wu Dahu.

The current seriousness on Wu Dahu’s face seemed to be a far cry from the one he had before. With his hands gesturing, he seemed to plan something with the other members aside him.

What was worth mentioning was that Wu Dahu completely stood out among the other Imperial Guards due to his tall figure and delicate appearance, like he was crane standing among the group of chicken. Song Qinghan couldn’t help but immerse into such a scene while feeling rather proud at the same time.

Noticing that Wu Dahu was glancing to the direction where he stayed, Song Qinghan got tense suddenly and then hurried to curl up his body and quickly took several steps back.

Even though Wu Dahu had only detected a blurring figure emerged and disappeared among the bush, he could sense that something was wrong right there.

He indeed had felt a zealous gaze fixing on him just then. How come it disappeared so quick as soon as he raised his head?

Under what situation would people hidden in the dark run back?

Wu Dahu thought for a moment and felt that there must be something fishy about it. After informing the other members beside him, he walked quickly toward the direction where Song Qinghan stayed.

Although Song Qinghan walked away without daring to raise his head, he wasn’t moving irregularly. Where he was heading to was the direction of the petty femina man. Because within the area, that femina man should be the most alike one with him and nearest to him.

When he finally got close to the femina man, Song Qinghan pushed him away deliberately. Such an action seemed to have rendered the femina man stunned for a long while.

Luckily, since the femina man had been occupied with his work for the long dreadful day, he failed to take a preciser observation and to figure out who was the one pushing him. Without a further consideration, he just regarded that it was a soldier who loved to bully the weak, and the patted the dust off his uniform, shaking his head and heading forward.

And Wu Dahu happend to arrive, he reached out to block the femina man’s way. After recognizing the character ‘夜’ on his uniform, he frowned and said, “Was that you over there just then?”

Even though Wu Dahu failed to recognized the appearance of Song Qinghan in such a distance, he still saw the color of the cloth clearly. But as for the character ‘夜’, he just saw a half of it. Now it seemed that the characteristics of that man hidden in the bush highly matched the femina man currently in front.
