Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 49

Chapter 049 Save Zhou Jingyan
After a night of tossing and turning, Yun Xiao simply got up early and took Chun Lan for a walk beside the forest on the left side of the manor to sort out her messy thoughts.

As for Chun Lin, she was frightened in a battle last night, so Yun Xiao simply let her rest.

His mind was filled with thoughts. One moment was County Head Huining, another was Crown Prince Zhou Jingchen, and another was Zhou Jingyan.

It had just rained in the early morning, and the air was exceptionally fresh. Yun Xiao felt that the gloom accumulated in her heart had also dissipated a lot.

Regardless of whether the Crown Prince was dead or not, it had nothing to do with him. The most he could do was to make his situation more difficult.

And his main goal was still county princess Huining and Zhou Jingyan. This time, the assassination of the Crown Prince was the beginning of a battle with county princess Huining. Both of them had memories of their previous lives. As for who was going to die, it was unknown.

I hope county princess Huining will like the big gift she gave her.

This time, County Lord Hui Ning only knew how to attack, but he forgot about the fire in the backyard. He gave himself a chance.

County princess Hui Ning would definitely form an alliance with Zhou Jingyan. She didn’t know what to do next, but she still had to leave a path for her family to retreat.

However, would Zhou Jingchen really die this time? Under the circumstances that he had reminded him, if this person really died, then he did not have the qualifications to continue cooperating with him. It was better to just wait and see.

Just as she took a step, Yun Xiao’s footsteps suddenly stopped where they were. She couldn’t move a single step, and her eyes suddenly narrowed dangerously. “Chun Lan, it’s been so long since we came out. Let’s go back first.”

If he met that person when he was out, even if he was suffocated to death in the courtyard, he would not come out alone.

Looking at Yun Xiao, who was walking in a chaotic manner, Chun Lan was puzzled, but she didn’t say anything to catch up.

However, when Yun Xiao walked to the courtyard door, she saw a person on Yun Lan’s back. At this moment, there was blood stains on that person’s robe. His clothes that were wet by the rain were all red stains of blood, and he could not see the original expression of his clothes at all. Not only that, there were also some deep wounds, some that had already formed scabs, and some that were constantly bleeding out.

Just as Yun Xiao looked, the space between her eyebrows twitched. A cold light shot out from her eyes, but she remained silent.

Her hands were tightly clenched together. She had just seen this person turn around and said nothing to save him. However, she did not expect that in a blink of an eye, Second Brother would directly carry him back. Yun Xiao did not know if this was truly destined by heaven or if she really had a bad fate with that person.

When Yun Lan saw Yun Xiao and the other two, he immediately said, “Fourth sister, hurry up and lend a hand. I just went out to check if there were any assassins around. I didn’t expect to encounter the heavily injured Third Prince.” Ever since County Lord Hui Ning’s banquet, Yun Lan had also known that this person was the Third Prince of the current Sage.

Seeing that Yun Xiao was standing still, Yun Lan said again, “I wonder who the Third Prince offended. He was actually injured so badly. Last night, it rained heavily again. I wonder how the Third Prince is doing. Xiao Xiao, hurry up and call a doctor to see him.”

Yun Xiao was still standing there without moving. She looked at the man lying on Yun Lan’s shoulder with a gloomy expression. The corner of her mouth hooked into a faint mocking smile, “Chun Lan, go get a doctor.”

This time, they had already made sufficient preparations for their arrival at the manor, and there were doctors as well.

After she finished speaking, she did not have the slightest intention to help and directly went back to her room.

Chun Lan and Yun Lan were both stunned. Yun Lan furrowed his brows. For some reason, it seemed that his fourth sister was a little unhappy about saving the Third Prince.

In the room, Yun Xiao took the chessboard and used her left and right hands to play chess. After an unknown amount of time, her mood finally calmed down.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door. Yun Xiao originally thought that Chun Lan had returned and directly said, “Come in.”

“Squeak!” The door was pushed open from the outside. The person walked to his side, but there was no intention to speak. Yun Xiao raised her eyes to look at the person, and her eyebrows were filled with surprise. “Why is it you?”

Rong Jin curled his lips and smiled, “Why can’t it be me? Fourth Young Lady seems to still owe me a thank you.”

“Thank you Young Master Rong for what happened last night.”

Rong Jin sat on the opposite side of Yun Xiao, his gaze landing on that clean little face. His expression was complicated, “You use Ruo Ruo.”

He was speaking affirmative sentences instead of interrogative sentences, but his tone was not accusatory, it was as if he was pointing out a fact!

Yun Xiao’s expression was slightly cold. She couldn’t figure out what the man opposite her was thinking. “Young Master Rong is wrong. I never thought of using Ruo Ruo. However, it’s true that I used Young Master Rong. There’s no need to thank you for your kindness. When our cooperation is effective, I will use the money to treat Young Master Rong to a meal.”

“Oh? Don’t tell me fourth young miss doesn’t have the money to treat me to a meal?” Rong Jin’s well-defined finger had already picked up a black piece and placed it on the chessboard.

Yun Xiao originally wanted to accuse him of playing his chess, but when she saw that the chessboard was obviously alive, her eyes lit up. “I didn’t expect Young Master Rong to be an expert in chess.” After she finished speaking, she looked at the chessboard and picked the white piece and landed on the chessboard. “You’re right, I really can’t take out the silver piece for you to eat now.”

Rong Jin looked at her with a faint smile, and the chess piece in his hand fell down again. “I heard that Fourth Young Lady just got 100,000 silver taels a few days ago. Could it be that she spent it so quickly? If that’s the case, Fourth Young Lady can also teach me how to spend the silver so quickly.”

If he said that, he was just about to directly accuse Yun Xiao of being too bankrupt.

How could Yun Xiao not recognize Rong Jin’s intentions, and a wave of anger surged in her heart. Her hand that was holding the chess piece trembled slightly, “You investigate me?”

Rong Jin only looked at the chessboard, as if he couldn’t hear the invisible killing intent in Yun Xiao’s tone. “That’s not the case. If you want to blame me, you can only blame my hearing. The sound insulation of your restaurant is a bit weaker. If those words have to enter my ears, I can’t do anything about it.”

Yun Xiao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, What is the sound insulation effect of the box, “Young Master Rong’s kung fu is truly unimaginable. As you know, the silver has indeed been used up. If you want to learn how to spend it, you can send someone to distribute the silver at the city gate. I think 100,000 taels of silver should be gone soon.”

When Rong Jin heard this, he shook his head and laughed. A smile appeared in his eyes. “Fourth Young Lady’s words are a good idea. However, since Fourth Young Lady doesn’t have silver taels, if you have the heart, you don’t mind cooking for us, do you? I heard Ruoruo said that Fourth Young Lady’s cooking skills are better than those of the head chef of Yun Lai Restaurant.”

Yun Xiao held her breath and put down the chess piece in her hand. Just as she was about to get up and leave, she heard Rong Jin’s voice again. “I’m curious, how did the fourth young miss know that the Crown Prince would be in trouble yesterday? Because of this, did the fourth young miss let me sell the Snow Rong Pills after fifteen?”

What a fox. It was so quick to connect the events together. Yun Xiao sneered and said so much. She was afraid that this sentence would be the focus of today’s discussion. “This won’t bother you anymore.”

“I heard that county princess Hui Ning was frightened last night when the Eldest Princess’ mansion was in the water. It would probably take ten days and a half months for her to recover,” he said with a smile. “Fourth Young Lady’s move was a thrilling one, but she still lost.”

Yun Xiao lowered her head and looked at the chessboard. As expected, she lost. She was not angry. She just chuckled, “Losing this time doesn’t mean losing every time, does it? I think you should think about how to sell the Snow Rong Pill first.”

“Fourth Young Lady is right. As businessmen, we shouldn’t care about politics.”

Yun Xiao raised her eyebrows. Hearing this, for some reason, she always wanted to laugh in her heart. If someone said this to her, she might believe it. However, this person in front of her was the future emperor of Country of Xiyue. It was as if he was mocking her.

‘”I never thought of caring about politics, but if necessary, I don’t mind doing that killing knife,” she said as she walked out. After taking a step, she paused. “I heard that Young Master Rong’s medical skills are not bad. If possible, please treat that person’s wounds and ask him to leave as soon as possible. I don’t want to have anything to do with the royal family.”

With her pun, Rong Jin naturally heard it clearly, and an extremely faint interest appeared in her phoenix eyes.

Don’t you want to have anything to do with the royal family? I’m afraid not.

Right now, he felt that the woman was getting more and more interesting. He knew that he could negotiate with her even if he didn’t tell her his identity.

Just as he walked out of the room, a pair of glittering and probing eyes landed on him. “Daddy, did you make Mother angry?”

Rong Jin laughed and hugged Rong Ruo in his arms. “I didn’t make your mother angry. Someone else made her unhappy. So your mother asked me to help throw that person out. What do you think?”

Yun Xiao, who was still not far away, heard this sentence, her feet were unstable and she almost fell. She had to admit that this man was really not an ordinary black belly!

At this moment, a pale face with a trace of grievance suddenly flashed in her mind

Rong Ruo stared at Yun Xiao’s figure as she walked farther and farther away. A trace of coldness appeared in the depths of her eyes. Her small mouth was soft and waxy as she spat out her words. “Since she offended Mother, Ruo Ruo will go and dismiss that person with Daddy.” His mother was someone he had taken a fancy to early in the morning, so no one could snatch her away from him.

Rong Jin just rubbed Rong Ruo’s hair and said dotingly, “Then I’ll leave this matter to you.”

Rong Ruo was stunned and asked conditionally, “Then what is Daddy doing?”

Rong Jin only curled his lips slightly. “Naturally, I want to see how well the patient’s injuries are. If they’re too serious, I naturally need to treat that person earlier.”

“Daddy is right. I’ll fetch a medicine chest for Daddy.” After he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered a question, “Then daddy has cured his illness. Should he leave as well?”

Rong Jin’s gaze turned on Rong Ruo, “Then I have to ask your mother.”
