C104 As You Wish
Young Master Lin said, "We have met before, but we haven't seen each other since."
In fact, he knew that Zhao Fengxi had chased after Xiao Yun before, and then disappeared. Xiao Yun was the last one to return.
What had happened?
Actually, everyone could think of one possibility, but one, there was no evidence. Secondly, he would not do something that would repay kindness with ingratitude.
He acted as if he didn't know anything.
The others also had the same thought.
Only the great beauty walked out slowly and first bowed to His Majesty. Then she bowed to Zhao Wuji and said, "Zhao Fengxi, Young Master Zhao, did walk with us before. He brought some people with him. He heard that they had already walked out of the forest. But because they wanted to save more people, they turned back. However, after that, he had led his people to a certain direction and never returned. At that time, we wanted to escape, so we chose the opposite direction. After walking for a long time. When we were trapped, we happened to run into Young Master Xiao. That was why he was able to save him."
The beauty's words were watertight!
First, she explained Zhao Fengxi's' loyalty 'and then said that he went missing. As for whether he died or not... She did not know. Her meaning was very obvious. Then, she said that they had gone in the opposite direction and only met Xiao Yun after a long time. This also meant that Xiao Yun and Zhao Fengxi didn't walk the same path. He cleared Xiao Yun's name.
"You... you're saying that my Fengxi took another path and didn't come back with you?"
Zhao Wuji's voice was trembling.
The beauty sighed and said, "That's right. I haven't seen him since. We also wanted to go and look for them, but... the mountain was deep and dangerous. It wasn't easy for us to walk out of it. We can't take the risk anymore. When we arrived at the relay station, we stayed there for a long time because of the war ahead. However, we also didn't wait for Young Master Zhao."
Zhao Wuji's body swayed twice. His legs were wobbly, and he almost fell down.
His face was green and white, as if he had aged ten years.
After a while, he forced a smile and said with a trembling voice, "Maybe it was because something was wrong, or maybe he will come back in a few days. This kind of thing can't be rushed, it can't be rushed..."
He lied to himself.
Usually, because of other reasons, there was no other way.
The beauty sighed again and turned to His Majesty. She bowed and said, "Your Majesty, since Young Master Xiao... Young Master Xiao is still here, can you let the civilian girl take a look?"
His Majesty looked at the beauty with a complicated look and pity in his eyes. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, since you want to see him, go see him."
Immediately, a palace maid walked out from the side hall and led the beauty to the Water Strike Palace.
Shangguan Qing'er and the other two women looked at each other and also followed with red faces. As long as no one stopped them, they would lose face today.
The pillar of the Great Country, Leng Xiaohan, looked at his granddaughter's crafty appearance and couldn't help but smile. But when he saw the Wu family girl also nervous, he frowned.
He immediately turned his head to look at Old Man Wu, who was two positions away from him. His eyes were obviously unfriendly!
Old Man Wu was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said with some grievance, "Old Leng, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Hmph! Men and women should be on guard. Your little granddaughter ran over to meet a strange man. What kind of behavior is this? "
Old Man Wu rubbed his nose, then grinned, revealing incomplete teeth.
"Let the juniors handle the matters of the younger generation themselves. Besides, who said it was an unfamiliar man? It's possible that in a few days, our Wu family will have another Saint Grade son-in-law. At that time, we will treat the pillar of the empire to a wedding banquet. "
"Bullshit! Stinky! Stinky shameless! You old fool!"
Leng Guzhu immediately scolded loudly.
Both of them had the same thought in their hearts. Previously, they could still play dumb, but now, they could not. Now that they were arguing, they really let the other party snatch it away.
And to be honest, he, Leng Guozhu, had a guilty conscience.
The young lady of the Wu family was famous for her gentle and virtuous character in the capital. She was like water, and she was also known as a talented young lady.
On the other hand, her granddaughter? The cold devil, the female insect, the overlord of the capital... Under all kinds of opinions, she was truly lacking in the slightest bit of competition.
Even if his own granddaughter loved him, people should know their own limitations. Even if it was him, he would marry Miss Wu and not choose Leng Ningshuang!
Thus, he was vexed and naturally angry.
As for Old Man Wu, he did not know anything before. Naturally, he was happier than anything when he saw that his granddaughter had returned alive. However, he could also see some clues from her performance. It seemed like his granddaughter was interested in that Xiao Yun.
As for Xiao Yun...
Old Man Wu had never seen him before, but he had heard that he was quite good-looking. At least, he had a good nose and eyes, and now he had the same foppish identity as before. This point... Whose youth was not frivolous? As a man, Old Man Wu had also come from that era. Naturally, he could understand.
However, when the Saint Grade came out, as well as the fact that he had saved more than two hundred sons of influential families in the disaster of spring hunting... This ability, this boldness, and the capital of his future connections! He searched every corner of the young generation. Which young man could be compared to him?
Thinking up to here, he felt that his granddaughter was quite good at picking men. Not only did she survive a great disaster, she even got lucky from a disaster?
However, he could also see that the girls of Leng family seemed to be interested in Xiao Yun.
But... Hehe.
He was not afraid at all! How could a gentle and lovable little lady and a five-horse spear-wielding female bug be chosen?!
So now, the two of them just stared at each other like they were fighting a rooster.
But at the same time, they both ignored one person.
Big beauty.
The younger generation didn't know, but the older generation all knew her.
Leng family's Ni Huang, Leng Yueling!
At the age of thirteen, she went to war with the army. At the age of fifteen, she made contributions. At the age of seventeen, she controlled an army of ten thousand people. At the age of nineteen, she became the youngest female general in Qin Country. At the age of twenty-three, she was conferred the title of Lord by defeating the enemy.
In ten years, there were hundreds of battles, big and small.
After that, another ten years!
He had returned 33 years ago.
His Majesty personally wrote: "Thirteen bundles of armor have gone to Hong Zhuang, and there are only injuries left when I return to my hometown thirty-three times. Twenty years ago, my armor was covered with cold dew, and this is a chapter written by a female general of the Great Qin!"
Contribution, bravery, talent, and that steel-like and gentle temperament that transcended armor like water. Even these fellows of the older generation admired him greatly.
However, everyone abided by the rules and did not call out her name or talk about her identity.
They treated it as if she was a different person, an ordinary person who had not been captured and imprisoned in the North Wei.
The beauty's figure was graceful, but her footsteps were quite urgent.
When she pushed open the palace gates and saw Xiao Yun...
Xiao Yun was sitting in the pavilion, holding a teacup with a smile on his face. He raised his head slightly and looked at the clouds in the sky.
It was as if he had the same feeling when he first saw the sky when he was born.
No matter how people described this world, how evil it was, how dark it was, and how cruel it was.
But to him, there was only one sentence.
It was too beautiful!
Many assassins had this kind of habit.
Because they clearly knew that the moment they raised their heads to look at the sky might be the last time in their lives.
Their birth and death, at the same time, were both shocked by the same scenery and fell.
How beautiful would that be?
Then, he heard the sound of the door opening. He turned his head around and was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled gently. Clearly, he heaved a sigh of relief.
The beauty hurriedly stepped forward. The reserved demeanor of a woman and the gazes of others made her unable to run.
However, the speed at which she ran was not much slower than that of running.
"That's great. You're fine. Are you hurt?"
She walked in front of Xiao Yun and the distance between the tip of the brush was less than a foot. She hurriedly took two steps back and maintained a sufficient distance before asking gently and nervously.
Clearly, these questions could be found through the eyes.
But she could not help but ask.
Xiao Yun took a step forward and reached out his hand to rub the top of her head.
He smiled gently and said, "This peace is as you wish."
It was not only Xiao Yun's own safety, but also the safety of the Great Qin.
