Father, Mother Escaped Again

Chapter 203

When Xia Yuqing heard the news, the corners of her mouth twitched twice. She sighed and looked up at the sky without a word: The prince openly writing the dog and the empress together, is it really okay?

In any case, Yun Zhongli had no time to take care of them recently and it saved them a lot of trouble. If they don’t slip away at this time, when would they?

Although they couldn’t get rid of Second Senior brother, everything else was wonderful.

Speaking of her Second Brother, he was injured gloriously that day in order to draw the attention of the Eldest Princess. It looked very serious, but in fact he had just broken the skin. This was just a small case in front of Dr. Su, who can produce meat from the bones of chicken legs.

But to everyone’s surprise, her Second Senior Brother, who was pretending to be sick, even asked Doctor Su to make it a little more severe. The most important thing was to leave a scar.

The reason? He actually told everyone that this was his honorable medal. He thought it over. By leaving this scar, if he took off his clothes and had Lu Rui take a look and told her how he saved her favorite little princess, at that time, she was bound to be greatly moved. She would rush into his arms, and be overwhelmed by his heroic spirit of risking his life. After that, she would no longer hold back her young girl’s spring heart, and would promise herself to him. His long-awaited wife catching plan would become a complete success. Excellent!

After Xia Yuqing knew the truth, she cast a decisive look at him. This d*mn shameless man wanted to touch her pure and innocent Lu Rui? How about in his next life!

This was Su Qingyan’s first encounter of someone not wanting to be treated by himself to get better, but wanting to become worse. It was quite fresh at first, but after learning the reason, his face changed like a palette... it was completely blackened! Thus, he directly made Yun Zhongyue half dead.

Su Qingyan’s original words were: Didn’t you want me to make it more serious? Then let’s make the fake thing real, so that your Miss Lu Rui can’t see that you are lying to her. So to save the two couples from having a rift because of this in the future, I am helping you!

Therefore, in these few days, as soon as Xia Yuqing passed by within a few miles around Yun Zhongyue’s room, she would hear terrifying screams. There was a saying. If you don’t look for trouble, you won’t die. Second Brother, rest in peace, Amen!

However, what Xia Yuqing and the others did not expect was that without the trouble of Yun Zhongli, another trouble came when they were about to leave.

On this day, the sun was shining, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. Xia Yuqing had just stirred up some trouble with her two children. Being caught by Cui Er, she bought them over with a small snack, so that they could peacefully rest on one side for the time being and not make trouble. Then, a figure suddenly came into view.

“Little general?!” Xia Yuqing saw the person’s appearance clearly and was shocked. She threw the small snack away in her hand, and rushed to Ji Miaoyan with a swish.

Ji Miaoyan was startled by Xia Yuqing’s sudden appearance. After a two-time laugh, he responded: “Empress Ye...”

Xia Yuqing looked up and down Ji Miaoyan with a smile, before asking: “How are you, little general? The general suddenly coming to us, is there something the matter?”

The expression on Ji Miaoyan’s face was slightly stiff. After struggling for a while, he said: “Uh ...I’m here to find Shao Zitang.”

“Huh? “Ji Miaoyan’s voice was too quiet. Xia Yuqing didn’t hear him clearly. She asked again with some doubts: “What did you say?”

Ji Miaoyan took a deep breath and repeated it: “I’m here to look for Shao Zitang.”

This time his voice was louder. Xia Yuqing heard it clearly. She clapped her hands together, a bit of intrigue appeared on her face for a moment. She touched her chin and said in thought for a moment: “Looking for Xiao Shangshu ah!”

Ji Miaoyan was uncomfortable with her blatant eyes. Just about to say something to explain, Xia Yuqing happily turned around and shouted behind her: “Xiao Shangshu, the little general is here to find you. He wants to kill and love you, very passionately!”

“......”

Xia Yuqing’s cry was obviously very effective. Just a moment later, Shao Zitang appeared with a black face. He was like the God of Darkness rushing out of the yard aggressively, pointing angrily at Xia Yuqing and shouting: “Girl, how many times have I said this, I don’t have a relationship with this fellow. Stop pulling him and I together anymore. Don’t you have ears? Do you?”

Xia Yuqing turned deaf by Shao Zitang’s roar. She hurriedly covered her ears and turned to her side.

After Shao Zitang finished roaring at Xia Yuqing, he immediately aimed his artillery at Ji Miaoyan and fired!

“What do you want with me? Why, you want to fight with me again? Come, this Lord will accompany you. This Lord is in a bad mood today, so I will use you to vent.”

“...” Xia Yuqing looked at Shao Zitang’s raised chin that had an expression of “not happy, then let’s fight”. She was secretly surprised. Did Xiao Shangshu eat some gunpowder today? He has such a bad temper! It’s easy to harm a pond fish if you blaze wildly regardless of the target like you’ve eaten gunpowder!

After a brief shock, Xia Yuqing wisely attributed Shao Zitang’s abnormality to the fact that he saw the young general and was jumping with excitement. This had caused endocrine disorders, thus he used this manic appearance to cover up his out-of-control young man’s heart. Oh my, Xiao Shangshu, how can you be so arrogant and cute?

If Shao Zitang knew what Xia Yuqing was thinking at the moment, he would inevitably spray her with blood. You have a young man’s heart, your whole family has a young man’s heart! Lao Zi is angry, OK, really angry!

As the innocent pond fish, Ji Miaoyan was stunned for a moment, then he whispered, “I didn’t come to fight with you.”

Now that he knew his grandfather’s death was not related to the person in front of him, how could he still come to find this martial arts master, especially now that the man doesn’t seem so stable to fight a life and death match. He is not that idle to do that!

Shao Zitang raised his eyebrows and folded his hands across his chest. He glanced at him, “Then what are you looking for me for?”

Ji Miaoyan was silent for a while: “I heard that on the day of aunt’s rebellion, you were the last person to get out of the prison. Do you know where Jiang Zhaorou is now? She was also in the prison on that day, and no one has seen her since.”

Xia Yuqing was shocked when she heard the words. She raised her head to look at Ji Miaoyan, and remembered that Jiang Feizao seemed to like the person in front of her, and was willing to do anything for him... Moreover, seeing the appearance of General Ji, could it be...

“Jiang Zhaorou?” Shao Zitang pondered for a few seconds, his eyes suddenly having a realization after a few minutes, “Oh, that woman, she...”

Xia Yuqing was struggling within her heart. Then she heard Shao Zitang’s exclamation and rushed over to interrupt: “Ahhh, you are speaking of Jiang Feizao? She is dead, yes, she is dead!”

“You...” Shao Zitang choked at Xia Yuqing’s sudden interruption and stared at her. However, he received a strong twist to his thigh. His face turned blue with pain, and he immediately forgot what he was trying to say, therefore missing the time to clarify.

Ji Miaoyan was still immersed in Xia Yuqing’s words at this moment, therefore he did not notice the small movements between the two at all. He only whispered with a pale face: “Dead?”

His appearance made Xia Yuqing more certain. She coughed, “Yes, Jiang Feizao is dead. When Xiao Shangshu and Miss Yan came out of the prison of the Ministry of Justice that day, they saw Jiang Feizao and Master Xi take down each other. Tsk tsk, how pitiful! By the way, when Jiang Feizao rescued us, she told me that if she unfortunately died inside, to tell General Ji that she, Jiang Zhaorou will always be loyal to Da Ren until death! Speaking of which, little general, although Jiang Feizao was temperamental, she was quite loyal to you!”

Ji Miaoyan didn’t even listen to the words that Xia Yuqing said after. His mind only had one sentence constantly echoing, Jiang Zhaorou is dead? The woman who he picked up by himself? After seeing her thoughts about himself, he had alienated her little by little, and even pushed her away, but she died?

“Little general, little general...” Xia Yuqing whispered back to Ji Miaoyan.

As soon as Ji Miaoyan raised his head, he saw Xia Yuqing looking at him worriedly and incomprehensibly: “Little General, are you okay, your face looks bad.”

“No...it’s okay.” Ji Miaoyan took a step back and avoided Xia Yuqing’s probing gaze. He barely curled the corners of his lips, and asked again, “What about her corpse?”

“Uh... the corpse?” Xia Yuqing’s eyes rolled and there was a flash of inspiration, “This, we don’t know, maybe it was buried with the soldiers who died that day. So many people died that day, so it’s hard to remember where each person was buried. Xiao Shangshu, don’t you think?”

Xia Yuqing pinched Shao Zitang as she spoke, trying to make him respond and increase the credibility of her words. As a result...

Shao Zitang’s eyes widened again, and he looked at Xia Yuqing angrily. He seemed to be saying, girl, are you treating me as your puppet doll? Do you think it doesn’t hurt when you knead me like this? Do you know how great your strength is? After being pinched by you twice, it will definitely turn green later, no, purple!

“Taken away and buried?” Ji Miaoyan murmured with a look of loss. He had no doubt at all.

Seeing that Shao Zitang didn’t cooperate at all, Xia Yuqing glanced at him with bitterness, then she thought about something and was immediately relieved.

Ahhhh, Xiao Shangshu must have seen something from the little general’s distressed expression. He must be in a depressed mood, and I even pierced his heart at this time. I was really too cruel, no wonder Xiao Shangshu is so uncooperative. Xiao Shangshu, please forgive me!

But since the play has started, it is natural to perform it to the end. Xia Yuqing coughed lightly and asked: “Is there anything wrong with the little general?”

“No...nothing.” Ji Miaoyan woke up like a dream, “Then I won’t disturb the two of you, I’ll leave first.”

“Oh. Ok, take care.”

Seeing Ji Miaoyan leave, Shao Zitang immediately tore off Xia Yuqing’s hand that was still pinching his lap. He snorted coldly, and brushed her off. Staying with Xia Yuqing any longer, he really wouldn’t be able to help wanting to slap her!

Xia Yuqing sighed when she saw this. She stared at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle. Alas, it’s really hard to be a good person these days. It’s even harder to be a good person for both sides!

Thinking like this, Xia Yuqing had just turned around, when she felt something heavy on her feet. She looked down and faced Second Baby with big watery amber eyes like glass beads.

“Mother, why did you lie to that uncle and say Aunt Jiang is dead? That day, Second Baby clearly heard Uncle Su say that Aunt Jiang was all right.”

Xia Yuqing squatted down and pressed down on her Second Baby’s shoulder: “Good Baby, you don’t understand, Mother is helping Aunt Jiang. If your Aunt Jiang knows, she will thank your Mother in the future.”

“Huh?”

Xia Yuqing ignored Second Baby’s still puzzled big eyes then suddenly covered her face, and falsely cried: “Oh! Because of my little compassion, I have actually torn apart a spicy and cute couple, the god of beauty will definitely not forgive me, oooh. ......”

“?” The confusion within the Second Baby’s eyes deepened. She looked at Xia Yuqing with a puzzled expression.

Eldest Baby rolled his eyes silently. He walked over and pulled Second Baby away. Mother is saying strange things again, he can’t let Second Baby get too close to her at this time, otherwise she will be led astray!

Ji Miaoyan returned to Ji Mansion like a walking corpse. He sat silently in his room alone. After an unknown period of time, he suddenly spat out a sentence: “Zhaorou, why isn’t there tea today?”

This sentence was very smooth, just because this scene was staged every day. But today was a little bit different.

Ji Miaoyan turned his head and glanced at the empty room. After that, he choked abruptly, and recalled the news that he had received from Xia Yuqing not long ago.

“Really? She is no longer here?” He murmured a sigh, with a touch of self-deprecation and complexity that the speaker was unaware of.

I...I’m just used to saying this, yes, I just got used to it. Ji Miaoyan kept saying words to himself, trying to convince himself, that this was just a habit that couldn’t be changed.

But... why was he so uncomfortable in his heart? Is it because he just got used to her? Someone once said that if you tell a lie too much, it will easily become true. But a lie is a lie after all, and one day it will still be exposed.

At this moment, Ji Miaoyan had no way to deceive himself anymore. He slowly squatted down with his aching chest, admitting for the first time that he might no longer have treated the woman as a simple habit.

He was immersed in his own world and did not notice that at that moment he bent down, a figure slowly walked in from the outside.

Not long after, a cup of tea that was the same as usual appeared on the table where the tea was usually served. At the same time, an unusually familiar whisper came into his ear: “My lord...”

“Ah Choo!” Shao Zi Tang, who was sitting in front of the carriage and waving the horse whip vigorously, sneezed. After rubbing his itchy nose, he thought, is it possible that he caught a cold from being blown by the wind?

Thinking about it this way, Shao Zitang’s mood grew worse. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Seeing this, Xia Yuqing climbed out of the carriage and cautiously said: “Xiao Shangshu, I know you are sad, but there is just no choice. You can see from one look that the young general and Jiang Zhaorou are interested in each other. If you try to stick your foot in, it would be too awkward! There are plenty more fish in the sea, so why hang onto one fish? Believe me, you deserve better!”

“...Girl, can you shut up?”

“Huh? Why?” Xia Yuqing blinked her eyes and asked innocently.

The corner of Shao Zitang’s mouth twitched. His face turned a little sullen: “I’m afraid I won’t able to stop myself from slapping you to death.”

“...” Xia Yuqing froze for a moment. She turned around and plunged into Feng Tingye’s arms and complained, “Your Majesty, Xiao Shangshu is scary today.”

Feng Tingye calmly patted the little head of his pet and smoothed her hair. He glanced at Shao Zitang, who snapped his horse whip outside, and chuckled, “Hey, stop making trouble, Zitang is not in the mood today. Don’t mess with him.”

“In a bad mood?” Xia Yuqing raised her head questioningly, but the light from the corner of her eye swept to the road outside the window. She said with some suspicion; “Hey, why is the road a bit different from the last time we came here?”

“Well, this is not the way to return to Ye Country. We won’t go back to Ye Country first.”

“Not returning to Ye Country? Then, where are we going?” Xia Yuqing asked in surprise.

Feng Tingye leaned against the car window and smiled. He lazily shook the red invitation card in his hand. The scene was so beautiful that Xia Yuqing couldn’t help swallowing her saliva, meditating on all sorts of messy heart sutras in her heart. D*mn, if she gets caught again, bewildered by beauty, this Laozi will die!

“A few days ago, there was a massive rebellion in Xue Country. After the rebellion subsided, Mr. Yin, oh no, he should be called King Xue, stood his ground and ascended to the throne. After knowing that we were in the Kingdom of Shu, he requested us to join him at Miss Xie’s wedding.”

“Nani?!” Xia Yuqing woke up suddenly and quickly scanned the invitation card in Feng Tingye’s hand. After reading it, she gave a shocked look.

Although she sold the little white rabbit for this day, Young Master Yin, isn’t this too fast? How long had Miss Xie and him known each other for? Yet the two are about to get married? This may be nothing in modern times, but in ancient times it would be called a flash marriage, okay? Seeing this, how can this group of men be still stumbling on the way to chase down their wives? How embarrassing!

Xia Yuqing listened to the sounds outside of the carriage. Shao Zitang was waving the whip harder, and she suddenly understood. No wonder Xiao Shangshu was spitting fire everywhere as if he had eaten gunpowder. It turned out to be...

Xia Yuqing sighed, then she heard a rush of horseshoes outside. She was taken aback for a moment. She poked her head out to take a look curiously. The result...

“Xi Er.”

Yun Xi and Yan Tingfang rode their horses and blocked the carriage. A person complained: “Qing Jiejie, you didn’t even wait for me to run away!?”

“...” We were worried about your child obsessed father charging over here!

“Xiao Xi, does your Father know that you ran out by yourself?”

Yun Xi snorted coldly: “Who cares! Anyways, he’s busy now and doesn’t have time to talk to me.”

“...” So you’re being difficult? Are you not afraid that your child obsessed Father will blow his top and run over to Ye Kingdom to ask for someone?

Compared with Xia Yuqing’s uneasiness, Second Baby was very happy to see Yun Xi again. As soon as she heard Yun Xi’s voice, she poked her head out of the carriage and shouted, “Aunt Yun Xi.”

“Ooo, Dun Dun.” Yun Xi’s attention was suddenly attracted by Second Baby. She no longer complained to Xia Yuqing.

Xia Yuqing secretly wiped her sweat, then moved her gaze to the other person: “Miss Yan, what are you...” It’s fine with Yun Xi, but Miss Yan, why are you here to join in the fun!?

Yan Tingfang ignored Xia Yuqing’s question. She fixed her gaze on Shao Zitang in front of the carriage and smiled. She was born beautiful, but now that the burden of her family being wronged has been finally resolved, her smile was even more radiant than before.

“You saved me twice. I have always repaid my debts, so please accept my body.”

“What?!”
