Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 239
Chapter 239 Daddy-deceiving Prince
Yun Xiao lifted the curtain of the car. Today was sunny and there was no wind. It was a rare fine day.
Looking at the pedestrians on both sides of the road walking towards the south gate, Yun Xiao couldn’t help but reveal a faint smile at the corner of her mouth.
Seeing the chaos here, Yun Lan was afraid of harming Yun Xiao and the others. He simply rode his horse and protected the carriage tightly. He would occasionally talk to Yun Xiao, which could be considered warm.
Seeing that the south gate was right in front of her, Yun Xiao’s eyes flashed with a faint reluctance. Only now did she realize that there were endless words that she could not finish. After that, they all turned into a few words of advice.
The carriage stopped outside South City Gate. Yun Xiao got off the carriage with Chun Lan’s help. Looking around, Looking at everyone, A faint sadness flashed across his brows. As a result, the burden in Chun Lan’s hand said, “Second Brother, I can only rely on Big Brother for a thousand difficulties today. The gift box I gave you earlier was a book that I wrote overnight. This book summarizes the current situation in Country of Xiyue. Big Brother has read it. Even in Country of Xiyue, it will save you a lot of trouble.”
Hearing Yun Xiao’s words, this simple book was even more valuable than ten thousand gold.
Yun Xiao handed the baggage in her hand to Yun Lan again. She smiled and said, “This is all the gold and silver that I have saved. This time, I will hand it over to Second Brother. I will do some intertwining along the way.”
“No need. Daddy has already interrogated him.” How could Yun Lan want this gold and silver? This was all saved by Fourth Sister with great difficulty. He wouldn’t be so shameless.
Seeing that Yun Lan was looking at him in surprise, Yun Xiao hurriedly took a step forward and whispered a few words into Yun Lan’s ear. Yun Lan’s eyes lit up. This time, he no longer refused and instead kept the gold and silver.
Only at this moment did Yun Xiao finally take out a man’s robe. This robe was not the color that Yun Lan usually loved to wear, but was light gray. However, the style was the same as what he wore on a peaceful day.
The corner of Yun Xiao’s eyes instantly moistened. She hurriedly raised her head and swallowed all the tears at the corner of her eyes. She forced a smile and said, “Second Brother, take this dress first.”
“Fourth sister,” Yun Lan’s gaze also carried a trace of embarrassment. As his older brother, he needed his younger sister to help him with everything. Looking at the materials and ingredients of this dress, he knew that he had spent a lot of effort.
Yun Xiao stuffed the clothes into Yun Lan’s arms and said as if she didn’t know, “When there’s no one around, Second Brother, remember to put on this clothes. Furthermore, if Second Brother wants to do something dangerous, he must wear this clothes.” Seeing Yun Lan looking at him puzzled, Yun Xiao could only repeat, “You must wear it.”
She had only finished this dress a few days ago, It was also a few days ago that she had obtained a piece of cloth made of golden cicada silk. She had spent a lot of effort to cut the silk into a garment. But now, in order not to attract others’ attention, she had purposely inserted the garment made of golden cicada silk into the garment. In this way, no one would discover that there was another universe in the garment.
And this Golden Cicada Silk is an extremely important thing. It can save Second Brother’s life if necessary, just because it is invulnerable!
Yun Lan still didn’t know why Fourth Sister said this, but looking at Yun Xiao’s tearful eyes, he firmly nodded, “Fourth Sister, don’t worry, Second Brother will definitely live up to Fourth Sister’s trust!”
Yun Xiao firmly nodded her head. Yun Lan’s departure could be considered to have taken away all of her hopes. Of course, it also gave her the greatest hope. This was the last retreat she had left for the Yun Clan!
“Second brother, be careful along the way!” Yun Xiao’s voice instantly choked, but she was still laughing, laughing happily!
Yun Lan graciously looked at the city gates of the capital once again, then turned to look at Yun Xiao, nodded at him, and swiftly got on the horse, striking it to leave.
Yun Xiao looked at the distant figure and refused to withdraw her gaze. Until the galloping horse left her gaze and even the last shadow disappeared, Yun Xiao was unwilling to withdraw her gaze.
Chun Lan, who was watching from the side, was sad. She secretly wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. She looked at the girl again. Although she was smiling, that smile was very forced. Even if she was smiling, she could tell that she was crying.
“Miss, let’s go back.”
Only then did Yun Xiao nod her head and withdraw her gaze. In this line of work, Second Brother, I hope that you will smoothly and peacefully.
She turned around and got into the carriage with Chun Lan’s help. The carriage slowly walked towards the south city gate. Yun Xiao took a handkerchief and wiped away a tear from the corner of her eyes. Only then did she instruct the coachman, “Drive the carriage to the refugee area.”
The coachman quickly answered. The carriage slowly walked towards the refugee area. Through the open window of the carriage, Yun Xiao could already see everyone walking towards the refugee area.
Not long after, the coachman’s voice sounded from outside, “Fourth Miss, the carriage can’t get in.”
Chun Lan said worriedly, “Miss, what should we do now?”
However, Yun Xiao remained unmoved and directly instructed, “Get off the car and let’s walk over.” They were all people who had died once, were they still afraid of refugees? Moreover, the Crown Prince is sending medicinal ingredients here today. There must be quite a few guards guarding this place.
Seeing that Yun Xiao had made up her mind, Chun Lan immediately stopped persuading and got off the carriage with Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao’s master and servant followed behind the crowd and walked forward. They saw the people in front of them. Under the watchful eyes of the officers and soldiers, they arranged the troops neatly. However, nothing major happened. Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.
From afar, Yunxiao could see that the Crown Prince, Zhou Jingchen, was wearing a navy green robe today. At this time, he and the servants were also handing out medicine bags to the people.
Because of this, many people looked at Zhou Jingchen in unison. They all praised the Crown Prince for his kindness. It was a blessing for the people to have such a Crown Prince who worked for the welfare of the people! Everyone was grateful!
At this moment, Yun Xiao’s clothes were suddenly pulled by someone. Yun Xiao frowned and turned her head to look. She did not expect that it would actually be Zhou Jingxu from the Nine Halls. She immediately smiled and said, “I didn’t expect that you would also leave the palace.”
“Of course. How can I not go out of the palace to join the fun? Today, the Crown Prince gave us a day off, so I went out to take a stroll,” Zhou Jingxu said mysteriously. “Guess what fun I saw when I came here?”
Yun Xiao’s interest was also asked by Zhou Jingxu. She really wanted to know what had happened, “Quickly tell me.”
Zhou Jingxu did not conceal anything. After a while, Barabara poured out some beans and told him everything that had happened today.
Generally speaking, Zhou Jingxu saw that the Crown Prince was giving medicine to the people here, so he couldn’t be idle. He brought his personal attendants and a few guards to repair the houses for the people door to door. Of course, there was a big problem with this repair.
There were many shattered tiles on the roofs of many families. He instructed the Imperial Guards to change the bricks and tiles for these people. He found that many people were ashen-faced and many were on the verge of death. Some were hit by the hail, while others were seriously ill and had no money to treat their illnesses.
Therefore, Zhou Jingxu asked the waiter to invite all the doctors in the capital over, treat the patients door to door, and grab the medicine for them. These were all penniless, making the people really grateful.
However, when he went to invite a doctor, he encountered something that made people happy.
They had just invited the doctor from the pharmacy to leave, and Third Prince Zhou Jingyan had also brought his men to invite the doctor. However, the doctors had all been invited away by them, so these people were nothing but empty bamboo baskets.
Hearing that, Yun Xiao’s expression changed. She knew that Zhou Jingyan would not sit idly by and wait for death. She did not expect that Zhou Jingyan’s mind would move extremely quickly and he would have made an idea for the doctor so quickly. If Zhou Jingxu hadn’t discovered it in time, this credit would have been Zhou Jingyan’s. Fortunately, Zhou Jingxu had discovered it and had already taken precautions.
However, Yun Xiao still couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, Zhou Jingyan really couldn’t take precautions this time!
However, at this moment, Zhou Jingxu embarrassedly touched his hair and looked at Yun Xiao apologetically, “Well, wood, there’s one more thing I forgot to tell you.”
Looking at Zhou Jingxu’s appearance, Yun Xiao had a bad feeling in her heart. She hurriedly said, “It’s better if you don’t say it. It’s good that I know so much.”
However, Zhou Jingxu was unwilling to give up just like that. He coughed dryly and said, “No, no, Mu Tou, you must know about this matter.”
Seeing that Yun Xiao was about to leave, he hurriedly said, “Well, I’ve spent all the silver on my body. Therefore, I’ve got someone to count the money for the doctor and the medicine on your name.”
Hearing this, Yun Xiao’s eyes flashed with helplessness and surprise. She turned around and said, “What did you say?”
Zhou Jingxu coughed lightly and repeated what he had just said. Hearing this, Yun Xiao frowned tightly. She had never seen such a cheating prince before.
Moreover, she had just given all her savings to her second brother, but now her name was already heavily indebted.
Yun Xiao was helpless, so helpless that she wanted to leave Zhou Jingxu!
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhou Jingxu continued, “One more thing is that I originally wanted to invite those doctors, but none of them were willing to come. In the end, I doubled the price, so the amount of silver is a little more than usual.”
When Yun Xiao heard this, her footsteps became unstable. She looked at Zhou Jingxu in disbelief, “Is all of this counted as my name?”
Yes, Mu Tou, I know that you still have quite a bit of money. You will definitely be able to pay these bills. Zhou Jingxu looked at Yun Xiao with an expression that I understood. It made Yun Xiao want to tie Zhou Jingxu up and hang him on the city wall to bask in the sun to see what was inside his mind.
However, Yun Xiao remembered the scene in her previous life. In her previous life, she had offended him and killed him. Even if Zhou Jingxu had pit him, he deserved it. Therefore, she had to grind her teeth and admit this debt. However, her eyes were filled with unwillingness.
She really wanted to take out a ledger and smash it at Zhou Jingxu, Let him have a good look. Since when did she have a lot of silver? Furthermore, this time, it was all Zhou Jingxu and her who bought the medicinal ingredients. The money they paid for it was in the blink of an eye, but they gave it to Zhou Jingchen free of charge. She suffered a huge loss. Not only did she lose a good title, she was also plotted by Zhou Jingxu again. She wanted to cry without tears!
Yun Xiao’s body shook. Fortunately, Chun Lan supported her in time behind her, so she did not fall.
Zhou Jingxu hurriedly said worriedly, “Mu Tou, what’s wrong with you?”
Yun Xiao was already so angry that she didn’t want to talk anymore. She only snorted coldly.
At this moment, a familiar figure ran over and shouted, “Fourth Miss, this is bad!”
Yun Xiao’s mind buzzed. Could it be that those doctors came to ask for debts?
The servant had already rushed over and respectfully bowed. He took a deep breath before saying, “Fourth Miss, Fifth Young Master asked this servant to inform you that you must not return to the manor now.”
“Don’t go back?” Yun Xiao unconsciously muttered, her expression slightly embarrassed …
