Chapter 138 Give her back to me
Jiang Yunxiao was not in a hurry, but Jiang Hu was very anxious.
Jiang Hu said with a cold face: "Young Madam, what should we do? Even if they can't hurt us, the progress will definitely be delayed."
Yue Niang lifted the curtain and showed her face on purpose.
Then he closed it again: "Okay, don't worry, your master and I have already anticipated this, don't worry."
Jiang Yunxiao slept until late at night. Another wave of assassins came outside. Jiang Yunxiao jumped out and fought with those assassins.
In the end, a few were deliberately let go.
The surroundings were quiet now, but the people sent by the prince and Ling Xun were still guarding.
Jiang Yunxiao returned to the carriage: "Jiang Hu, look at how many people from the Crown Prince and the Third Prince are outside. You've been asking them all the way, and you haven't realized that I did this on purpose?"
"Oh, I see. Master, you have a trick up your sleeve."
The group was assassinated along the way and it was five days later when they arrived in Wenzhou, but there was no sign of chaos in the city.
Qin Shaobai was seen leading the Jiang family to distribute porridge and food in the city.
"So this is the young master's back-up plan."
When the news reached Kyoto, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince were drinking tea together in a rare harmonious atmosphere.
"Brother, why aren't you anxious at all?"
The prince looked at Ling Xun sinisterly: "The people you sent are really useless."
Ling Xun sneered, "If my eldest brother's men were useful, he wouldn't have let Jiang Yunxiao and the food reach Wenzhou smoothly."
The prince looked at Ling Xun and said, "Third brother, I have no interest in the Jiang family's affairs. I simply dislike Jiang Yunxiao. I am the future king, and the Jiang family will only benefit me. Why should I be anxious? Since you love this position so much, then come and take it. Don't involve me in this matter."
The prince can naturally distinguish right from wrong.
But Ling Xun was not so easily dismissed: "Really? But didn't you, my dear brother, also intervene in this matter? Do you still want to get away with it? Don't forget that you were also involved in those assassinations."
The prince slammed the teacup in his hand onto the table: "Are you threatening me?"
"I'm not threatening you, I'm just reminding you."
The prince's face trembled with laughter. "Remind me? I'm not afraid of a fight to the bitter end, but what about you? I won't tell you about the cold treatment you've received from our father over the years, okay?"
Ling Xun looked at the prince with hatred: "So you want to push me out alone?"
The prince said nothing, but said to the servant outside the door: "Show the guest away."
Ling Xun came out of the East Palace and punched the wall of the East Palace.
The personal servant asked, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince has turned against us. What should we do next?"
Ling Xun looked at the long red street and said, "He's dreaming. He'll send some evidence to Jiang Yunxiao. Since he's so unkind, don't blame me for being disloyal."
Jiang Yunxiao's idea was to appease the family first, and then let Qin Shaobai rebuild the economy. It just so happened that the Qin family had the intention to develop in Wenzhou.
Yue Niang follows Fu Yuan Niang every day.
Jiang Yunxiao had been to the Qiefeng royal family and recognized that the man was the second prince of Qiefeng. Ling Xun was so shameless.
Let your wife go with another man.
Jiang Yunxiao pulled Yue Niang back to the courtyard where they were taking a short rest: "Madam, what are you going to do?"
Yue Niang looked at the already white sky and said to Jiang Yunxiao, "I plan to go talk to Fu Yuan Niang again. She is actually quite pitiful."
Fu Yuanniang lived in a restaurant in the city. Due to the snow disaster, the restaurant was very deserted.
Yue Niang arrived, covered in snow and wind. The shopkeeper hurried out to greet her: "Sir, are you looking for a quick meal or to stay the night?"
Yue Niang looked around and said, "I'm looking for someone."
His eyes fell on Fu Yuanniang who was drinking porridge alone in the corner, and he walked towards her.
"Second sister."
The shopkeeper walked away tactfully.
The moment Fu Yuanniang saw Yueniang, her eyes were a little flustered: "Is Big Sister so well-informed?"
Yue Niang sat down beside him and said, "I'm not that smart, I just want to find my second sister."
"I'm the laughing stock of Kyoto now. Big sis, don't bother looking for me."
Yue Niang took the pot and poured herself some water. "The Third Prince did a good job of keeping secrets, so naturally I have to take the trouble to do so."
After Fu Yuanniang finished her porridge, she looked at Yueniang with a resentful expression: "Big sister, you have such great magical powers, why are you looking for me?"
"I just want something."
"I know what you want, so what good is it for me?"
"I can help you escape from here."
"Escape? Ha." Fu Yuanniang seemed to have heard something funny: "Are you so confident, big sister?"
"It's not confidence. What if I can still let you and your mother run away and live a comfortable life for the rest of your life?"
"My mother? Do you know where she is?"
Yue Niang slowly took another sip of water, but didn't say anything.
Fu Yuanniang finally realized, "So you're asking me if my mother's disappearance is related to you, Big Sister? I wonder what you're up to?"
"Do you know how your grandmother and my mother died?" Yue Niang did not answer directly, but asked Fu Yuan Niang instead.
Fu Yuanniang shook her head slightly and then nodded. "I know you and your grandmother lived a miserable life in Yunzhou. I also sent you money. As for my stepmother, it was my father's neglect and my mother's harassment that led to her ending like this."
Yue Niang clenched her teacup and said, "Second sister, you are wrong. Your mother poisoned my grandmother. Your mother also killed my mother."
Yue Niang took out the deed from Tianyoumen, along with the testimony of the witnesses from Nanshan Village. "These have already been heard in court. Second sister, you don't think I've been deliberately framing you, do you?"
"Isn't it? You hate me for taking your position as princess."
"No, I've never liked Ling Xun. You two are in love with each other, and I will definitely bless you."
"Did my mother really do all that?" Fu Yuanniang still couldn't believe it.
"I don't need to lie to you. As for the position of princess you mentioned, do you think you are happy now?"
"It's like falling into an icy cave. I never knew a man's love could be so cheap. I've become a brothel girl without dignity, my only purpose being to win over Prince Qiefeng."
Yue Niang looked at her sympathetically and asked, "Does Prince Qiefeng love you?"
"Big sister, do you think a commodity deserves to talk about love with its employer?"
"Do you want us to do a test? Let's see who loves you more, Ling Xun or Prince Qiefeng?" Yue Niang looked cunning.
Fu Yuanniang nodded: "Okay."
"So what about what we discussed?" Yue Niang asked.
Fu Yuanniang fell into deep thought again: "Big sister, do you know when I learned about my life experience?"
Yue Niang was bewildered: "When?"
"In the autumn of the year you went to Yunzhou, my mother had a secret meeting with a man. That man asked me to call him dad. Later, my mother beat me and almost cut out my tongue, forbidding me to tell anyone. She is my mother, yes, but I don't want to have this mother."
Yue Niang understood: "So you don't want to help me?"
Fu Yuanniang poured herself a cup of tea and said, "If you can really test who is more sincere to me, the Third Prince or Prince Qiefeng, I will help you in exchange."
"It's a deal?" Yue Niang raised her teacup, and Fu Yuan Niang paused for a moment and then raised her teacup as well.
The snow disaster in Wenzhou is getting worse. Although the Waking of Insects has passed, the snow is still falling heavily.
Prince Cheng's Mansion received a letter saying that Fu Yuanniang had disappeared in the snowstorm.
Ling Xun was somewhat pleased: "This way I don't have to go through all the hardship. When the snowstorm is over, I will write to my father and tell him that she went to Wenzhou to distribute porridge and then died. This will kill two birds with one stone. I can then choose a wife carefully again, and this time I will definitely not choose a lowly merchant."
Fu Yuanniang naturally guessed all this.
Yue Niang was cooking in the kitchen, and Fu Yuan Niang was helping her: "Big sister, it would be nice if we could always be like this."
Yue Niang waved her spoon as she listened to Yan Qi's reply: "There's no movement from Prince Cheng's Mansion."
Fu Yuanniang stopped adding firewood. "Alas, it's really useless to try to escape for a short while. From what I know about Ling Xun, he will exaggerate this matter and even say that I died while visiting the people of Wenzhou in Yunzhou."
Yue Niang scooped the vegetables out of the pot and asked, "You know him so well? What about Prince Qiefeng?"
"Hu Yanqiu? I really don't know whether he's good or bad. He seems very real, but also seems unreal."
When she heard the name, Yue Niang remembered Hu Yanqiu. She had seen him at Princess Mingjia's place. At that time, he was covered with black aura, but when she saw him hiding that day, he was clearly covered with white aura.
"I think he is a good person." Yue Niang said.
Fu Yuanniang took the bowl from Yueniang's hand and said, "Don't think about it anymore. Let's eat first."
But as soon as the bowl was placed on the table, an arrow pierced through it.
Jiang Yunxiao grabbed the gun from the corner and rushed out.
Suddenly, a group of men in black rushed in and headed straight towards Yue Niang and Fu Yuan Niang.
"Yanqi." Yue Niang called out.
Yan Qi and others jumped out from the darkness.
Yue Niang pulled Fu Yuan Niang into the house.
Yan Qi and his companions were quite skilled in martial arts, and the group of men in black were subdued in no time.
The battle between the man outside and Jiang Yunxiao is still going on.
The man in black had his eyes exposed, which was a typical feature of Qiefeng.
He kept saying, "Give her back to me."
"We'll talk after you can beat me." Qie Feng and Da Cheng had to fight after all. Jiang Yunxiao, who had guessed the other party's identity, planned to practice his skills with sharp moves.
