Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 471
Chapter 471 Rong Jin Engagement
The two of them hugged each other tightly for a night. When the faint sunlight shone on their bodies, Rong Jin and Yun Xiao woke up at the same time.
Yun Xiao opened her eyes. She was already accustomed to seeing Rong Jin’s face when she opened her eyes. She felt a faint happiness in her heart.
However, this happiness did not last for too long. Two days later, Yun Xiao had already walked all over Mei City. Afterwards, she could only stay at home and not do anything. She felt uncomfortable in her heart.
He had gotten used to doing things directly, and now he felt really relaxed. Instead, he felt uncomfortable all over.
Rong Jin felt somewhat distressed when he saw this. However, Yun Xiao’s body had already been around for eight months now, and his body was heavy. He did not want Yun Xiao to be tired, so he could only spare all his time to accompany Yun Xiao.
Rong Jin didn’t even look at the invitation that many people had handed him, but he immediately rejected it.
Everything outside was left to Rong Xun to take care of. Rong Xun was unhappy and came to the courtyard a few times, but after seeing Rong Jin and Yun Xiao getting along, he turned around and went back.
The price for Rong Xun being tricked by Rong Jin was to directly imprison Rong Ruo in the palace and not allow her to leave the palace. Rong Ruo was naturally unconvinced, but Rong Xun directly called the experts inside to guard the palace. Even if Rong Ruo escaped, she could not escape. She could only rely on a letter to inform her father and mother to ask them to speak and let him out.
However, the letter was not detained by Rong Xun before leaving the palace. After Rong Ruo left, she hated Rong Xun to death. However, Rong Xun ignored his angry gaze. He was unconvinced and directly asked to fight Rong Xun one-on-one.
However, although he had always grown up beside Rong Jin and learned a good set of kung fu at a young age, his kung fu would fail in less than five moves in Rong Xun’s hands.
The father and son often provoked each other, but invisibly, their feelings grew even deeper.
Rong Jin was even happier to see such a thing happen when it came to Rong Jin’s ears.
Although he doted on Ruo Ruo, Ruo Ruo was still Rong Xun’s child. He felt uncomfortable seeing the father and son’s birth.
On this day, Yun Xiao and Rong Jin were playing chess in the pavilion when they saw the butler running over nervously with an embarrassed expression. When they walked outside the pavilion, they saw that Yun Xiao was also in the pavilion with an embarrassed expression. They didn’t know if they should step forward.
Yun Xiao placed a chess piece and saw Housekeeper Chen outside the pavilion. She frowned and said, “Housekeeper Chen, what happened?”
Since he was seen, Housekeeper Chen had no choice but to step forward and greet the two of them. He looked at Rong Jin with an ugly expression, “Master, the Empress and Miss Mu are here.”
Yun Xiao’s hand stiffened and then returned to normal. She looked at Rong Jin calmly. She and he had been back for quite a few days, but Rong Jin had never mentioned anything about the Empress.
“Say that I’m not in the manor.” Rong Jin only replied indifferently. He twisted his chess piece and continued to play chess, his expression calm as if nothing had happened.
“This servant has already said that, but the Empress has already brought someone into the courtyard. She almost arrived at the front yard.” This was what worried housekeeper Chen.
Yun Xiao’s hand that held the chess piece stiffened once again. She smiled and looked at the man opposite her. “You go first. I’ll see the scenery here.” She would not enter the royal family. Naturally, there was no need to see the Empress. Moreover, since the Empress came with Mu Xuan, Mu Xuan liked Rong Jin and definitely did not have a good impression of her. Perhaps they did not want to see her either.
Rong Jin put down the chess piece in his hand, dotingly rubbed Yunxiao’s hair and nodded, “Alright, wait for me here. I’ll be back soon.”
“Yes,” Yun Xiao nodded indifferently, her expression not changing at all.
Rong Jin walked out with Steward Chen. When he passed by the pavilion, he winked at Chun Mei, Chun Lan, and Qing Mo before leaving.
As soon as Rong Jin left, Yun Xiao also lost the fun of playing chess. She picked up the chess piece, one hand dragging her chin, the other hand gently touching her abdomen, staring at the sky outside in boredom.
There was a desire in her heart to go to the front yard, but Yun Xiao suppressed this thought of hers. She sighed slowly, “If I continue to stay idle like this, I probably won’t have any energy left.”
Yun Xiao was accustomed to being busy. She was not accustomed to enjoying life like this at all.
Yun Xiao couldn’t help but think in her heart, she couldn’t rely solely on Rong Jin in Mei City, otherwise, when she gave birth to the child and left, wouldn’t she even lose her fortune to support herself?
It was also at this moment that Yun Xiao decided that she could not be so depressed. With her father and Zhou Jingxu taking care of her business in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Yun Xiao could rest assured.
At this moment, Yun Xiao once again had the thought of doing business.
Daddy’s wish has always been to carry forward the Yun Clan’s industry. Since that’s the case, let her help Daddy accomplish it.
Just as she had this thought, Yun Xiao couldn’t help but laugh. She planned to make a good plan. At this moment, she heard a series of messy footsteps.
However, there were many people in the courtyard, so Yun Xiao did not pay much attention to this voice. Only when she heard the sounds of Chun Mei and Chun Lan quarreling did she raise her head and look at the place where the voice came from. The first thing she saw was Mu Xuan with a faint expression and arrogant expression.
Yun Xiao looked at Mu Xuan. Mu Xuan also looked at Yun Xiao. Their gazes collided. Yun Xiao clearly saw hostility in Mu Xuan’s eyes. She frowned and said, “Chun Mei Chun Lan, please invite Miss Mu over.”
Although Chun Mei and Chun Lan were unwilling, Yun Xiao had no choice but to obey her words.
Mu Xuan left the maidservant in place and slowly walked towards the pavilion. Her gaze had never left Yun Xiao’s eyes. She entered the pavilion. Before Yun Xiao could speak, Mu Xuan had already sat down on her own. She looked at Yun Xiao with a faint smile, “Fourth Miss Yun, you are well.”
A trace of coldness appeared in Yun Xiao’s eyes as she looked at her coldly. It had been a long time since anyone had mentioned Fourth Miss Yun’s name. She had never expected that she would actually be called out from Mu Xuan’s mouth.
As for Mu Xuan’s actions, she was telling her that she was already clear about her background.
Yun Xiao was a little unworried. She hated Mu Xuan’s self-righteous investigation of her own background. She thought that holding onto her own background was equivalent to holding onto her. “Miss Mu is also fine.”
Mu Xuan poured herself a cup of tea like a master, then filled the teacup in front of Yun Xiao. Then, she smiled and said, “Fourth Miss Yun, I don’t like to beat around the bush. Your identity isn’t worthy of Young Master Rong. Tell me, how are you going to leave him?”
Yun Xiao stared at Mu Xuan’s every move. She saw that Mu Xuan was like the owner of this place, and she was just a passer-by. Her expression wasn’t angry, but she laughed, her eyebrows faintly without any warmth, “Oh?” What happened between Rong Jin and me doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you, right? At best, you’re just my husband’s cousin. Don’t you think your hand is a little too long? ”
“Fourth Young Miss Yun, don’t be angry. I’m here on behalf of the Empress. The Empress is his mother. She doesn’t want you to stay here anymore. There’s nothing I can do about it. Besides, Fourth Young Miss is just the daughter of your merchant. How can she be worthy of being the eldest prince of Country of Xiyue?” Mu Xuan’s eyes were cold, and her expression carried a trace of impatience and contempt.
This gaze made Yun Xiao even more displeased. Her voice was also indifferent and distant. “The Empress is the Empress. The person I married is Rong Jin. The child I’m pregnant with is Rong Jin’s. As long as my husband doesn’t let me leave, no one has the qualifications to let me leave. If Miss Ruomu comes here, please return just to say those words.”
‘”Yun Xiao, I came here today to give you a direct order, not to ask for your opinion. You are from the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The Eastern Jin Dynasty and Country of Xiyue have always been at odds. Aren’t you afraid that marrying him will implicate the entire Yun Clan?” Mu Xuan impatiently continued to talk to Yun Xiao. In her eyes, Yun Xiao was just a woman from a small family. If it weren’t for Rong Jin, she wouldn’t have stood together with Yun Xiao to talk.
Hearing the threat contained in Mu Xuan’s words, Yun Xiao’s eyes flashed with a faint killing intent. Then, she coldly looked at Mu Xuan and said in an ice-cold voice, “There’s no need to bother Miss Mu about our Yun Clan’s affairs. Miss Mu should think about marrying her.”
The current Mu Xuan was already eighteen years old. At this age, she would become an old lady if she did not get married. She would be laughed at by others. However, although no one dared to laugh at Mu Xuan’s status in West Vietnam, not getting married at such an old age was obviously an embarrassing matter.
Especially now, she was going to marry Rong Xun, but Rong Xun said nothing about marrying her. Their marriage had dragged on until now, and Rong Xun was still unwilling to marry her. Although she did not want to marry Rong Xun, because of the Empress’ face, she had no choice but to agree.
However, every time the marriage was mentioned, Rong Xun would disappear for a few days to resist. As time passed, the Empress was also impatient, but she could do nothing to Rong Xun. There was anger in her heart and there was no way to vent it, while Mu Xuan was happy and at ease.
However, every time she walked down the street, Mu Xuan would be secretly enraged when she saw the strange way other people looked at her.
And her marriage was even more difficult. Now that she saw Rong Jin, she didn’t want to marry Rong Xun, let alone after last year, Rong Xun didn’t touch her, making her feel that things had changed. However, no matter how many people she sent to inquire about it, she couldn’t find out how things had changed.
The poison in Rong Xun’s body was exchanged by Rong Jin. As a poisoner, Mu Xuan only knew that something had happened, but she didn’t know what had happened.
Seeing Yun Xiao staring fixedly at her, Mu Xuan’s expression became even more embarrassed. She directly said loudly, “Fourth Miss Yun, I forgot to tell you. The Empress has already arranged a marriage for him. Very soon, he will marry our West Vietnamese woman.”
