Farmer's Wife Has Magic Skills

Chapter 257: True Identity

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In an ordinary courtyard.

Gong Wentang had a special relationship with Li Yuanshao.

When Li Yuanshao’s mother was pregnant with him, she was poisoned once. Therefore, Li Yuanshao was born weak and sickly, like a delicate flower.

He was extremely good-looking. His skin had always been fair, and his facial features were a perfect copy of her mother’s. They were especially exquisite. When he was ten years old, it was still difficult to tell if he was a boy or a girl.

Gong Wentang’s aunt was married to the Lord of the Northern Border as a concubine, so the two families were very close.

Later, when he was older, thanks to his aunt, Gong Wentang was able to enter the school for noble kids. There, he got to know Li Yuanshao.

The first time he met Li Yuanshao, he thought he was a girl and even wanted to marry him.

Li Yuanshao was ostracized in the school, so no one could be bothered to explain his gender and let him be humiliated.

On the other hand, Li Yuanshao had an inferiority complex. When something happened, his intuition was to shrink back and avoid it. Moreover, he was nervous when he saw Gong Wentang and would stutter. Usually, before he could finish speaking, people would interrupt him. Hence, this misunderstanding lasted for three years until Li Yuanshao Adam’s apple became visible.

This misunderstanding dealt a huge blow to Gong Wentang. However, he did not blame Li Yuanshao for not explaining it. Instead, he became good friends with him.

After Gong Wentang parted ways with Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong, he immediately rushed to the city. As soon as he returned to the city, he arrived at an ordinary courtyard.

He climbed over the wall and entered like how he always did.

“Yuanshao.”

Li Yuanshao had just come out of Cong Chusheng’s room. Cong Chusheng had been beaten up very badly in the prison. He was covered in injuries and had just fallen asleep after applying the ointment.

When he saw Gong Wentang, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes. “Wentang, why are you here?”

“I got the snow lotus and specially brought it to you.” Gong Wentang looked at his friend, who was thinner than a bamboo pole, and could not help but feel bad for him.

Li Yuanshao was in disbelief. “You got the snow lotus?”

Gong Wentang took out something wrapped in a handkerchief and unfolded it. A pure white and crystal clear flower appeared. “This is the snow lotus.”

He had been protecting it carefully. Otherwise, the snow lotus would definitely be damaged.

Li Yuanshao held the jade-like snow lotus in his hand and asked as he admired it. “How did you find it?”

Gong Wentang said in embarrassment, “I begged someone to give it to me.”

Li Yuanshao was stunned. “Why would anyone give such a precious herb to you?”

Gong Wentang emphasized, “It was really given to me by someone else. You also know that pair of brothers, right?.”

Li Yuanshao was surprised. “You met that pair of brothers?”

Gong Wentang nodded and said, “That’s right. They told me that they know you.”

Li Yuanshao admitted, “Indeed. They even stayed here for two days.”

“We’re all on the same side.” Gong Wentang looked around. “Yuanshao, where’s Chusheng? Let him prepare the snow lotus. After eating the snow lotus, your body should recover.”

Li Yuanshao said, “Chusheng was imprisoned by Li Yuan’an and is severely injured. It will take a while for him to recover.”

Gong Wentang became agitated. “What’s wrong with Li Yuan’an again?”

“He…” Li Yuanshao found it difficult to say it. “It’s over. Let’s forget it.”

Gong Wentang stared at Li Yuanshao for a while. Seeing that his good friend did not look too good, he guessed that Li Yuan’an must have bullied his good friend again. “Where is Chusheng? Shall I go and see him?”

Li Yuanshao brought Gong Wentang to Cong Chusheng’s room. “He’s inside. He just fell asleep.”

Gong Wentang nodded, pushed open the door, and walked in.

Li Yuanshao stood at the door for a while, then walked over and sat on the stool.

The secret guard sent a thick letter to Tang Jinghong. Tang Jinghong took it back to his room and read it carefully.

The letter recorded the information about Li Yuanshao. After reading it, he decided that he would support Li Yuanshao to become the new Lord of the Northern Border.

Chu Qingzhi pushed the door open and entered. “Jinghong.”

Tang Jinghong looked up. When he saw Chu Qingzhi, his eyes involuntarily lit up. “Qingzhi.”

Chu Qingzhi sat beside Tang Jinghong. “What are you looking at?”

Tang Jinghong said, “I don’t know what kind of a person Li Yuanshao is, so 1 got the secret guards to investigate him.”

“Let me take a look too.”

“Okay.”

The room fell silent. There were only two intertwining breaths.

Li Yuanshao was 18 years old this year. His biological mother was a servant girl in the mansion. The servant girl was extremely beautiful. Li Yuanshao looked very similar to her, but she had a short life. She died the moment Li Yuanshao was born.

When Li Yuanshao was born, he was thrown to a remote courtyard by the Lord of the Northern Border to be raised by the old nanny and servant girls.

He was lucky. The old nanny had wanted a son all her life. When she suddenly got a son, she doted on him and took good care of him. Otherwise, Li Yuanshao would have died long ago.

When Li Yuanshao was seven years old, he was suddenly bumped into by Li Yuan’an.

Li Yuan’an was curious at first when he saw his younger brother, whom he had never seen before in the mansion. However, after his mother told him the story, he started to hate this younger brother and kept bullying him.

When Li Yuanshao was ten years old, the old nanny brought back a strange child from somewhere. This strange child was Cong Chusheng.

Cong Chusheng was two years older than Li Yuanshao. His background was unknown, but he was very powerful. Not only did he know medicine, but he also knew martial arts. He did business, planted herbs, dyed cloth… There seemed to be nothing that he didn’t know.

Later on, Cong Chusheng stayed by Li Yuanshao’s side and served him loyally.

The two of them were almost inseparable, and it was always Cong Chusheng who made medicine for Li Yuanshao. Otherwise, Li Yuanshao would probably have died.

As Tang Jinghong watched, he was pleasantly surprised…

Two-thirds of the shops in the northern border city were opened by Li Yuanshao, but there was no connection between the shops, so no one had discovered it.

In other words, the economy of the northern border was basically in Li Yuanshao’s hands. This person was really amazing!

Unexpectedly, the weak young man was actually a business tycoon.

Li Yuanshao secretly raised a group of killers, about a thousand of them. However, they were not used to kill, but to maintain the normal operation of the shops.

Some things were not easy for him to deal with openly, so these people were needed.

Throughout the entire process, Li Yuanshao did not use these killers to exploit the people. He only used them to deal with some troublesome matters when necessary. This was worth admiring.

In addition, the Ge family was actually Li Yuanshao’s subordinate, but the Ge family was selfish and greedy and did not tell him about the mine, which led to the eradication of the entire Ge family. Even if Li Yuanshao wanted to save them, it was too late.

There were many other hidden forces under Li Yuanshao in the northern border city. They were very secret and could be used readily.

It was no wonder that Li Yuanshao dared to come to their aid when they were encircled by the guards.

It turned out that his identity was not as simple as just the Seventh Prince!!
