Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 523
Chapter 523 Make A Decision
After a long period of silence, Brother Han’s incredulous voice finally sounded, “How … how is that possible?”
Brother Han’s words echoed the hearts of everyone in the room.
Everyone in the room looked at Rong Jin, who was standing with Yun Xiao. Was this the eldest prince who had sent the Eastern Jin Dynasty as a protector ten years ago from Xi Yue? The current Swallow King?
Seeing that everyone in the room was puzzled, Yun Lan also said loudly, “Fourth sister is telling the truth. There is not the slightest bit of empty talk.”
The room fell silent once again. Everyone looked at Rong Jin, their expressions changing, a little embarrassed.
Who would have thought that the women of the Eastern Jin Dynasty would marry the Swallow King of the Western Vietnam? If this news were to spread, wouldn’t it be a crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country?
Thinking of this, everyone’s faces turned ugly.
“I didn’t expect fourth sister to marry the Swallow King! That’s great!” The little sister’s nerves were somewhat slow to react, and she immediately exclaimed in surprise, “I didn’t expect fourth sister to marry the Swallow King!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she was glared at by Madam Yu, and Sister Min immediately swallowed the rest of her words.
Being watched by so many people, Yun Xiao did not feel nervous. Instead, she held Rong Jin’s hand tightly.
Now that they were husband and wife, she would not let go of Rong Jin’s hand easily if they wanted to advance and retreat together!
Rong Jin tilted his eyes and smiled in Yun Xiao’s direction. His dark eyes flashed with a faint light. He held Yun Xiao’s finger with his back hand, and he would not let go of Yun Xiao’s hand easily.
The first person to speak was Second Master Yun, who was in charge of the court. “When did Xiaoxiao know?”
Yun Xiao smiled indifferently, the corner of her mouth slightly raised, her eyes flashing with a faint feeling of happiness. She whispered, “I knew his identity as early as when I married my husband.”
“Bastard!” This sentence was cursed by Yun Maozhe.
Yun Xiao had never been scolded by Yun Maozhe before, but she still stubbornly looked at Yun Maozhe, expressing her determination.
“Kneel down!” Yun Maozhe snorted coldly, his expression extremely embarrassed.
Back then, before Yun Xiao married Rong Jin, he strongly agreed. Originally, he thought that he had chosen a good husband for his daughter, but he didn’t expect that he had dug a huge hole for Yun Clan.
Yun Xiao did not refute. She let go of Rong Jin’s hand and was about to kneel down. However, Rong Jin did not let go of her hand. He tightly held onto Yun Xiao’s hand and knelt down with Yun Xiao.
Not only the two of them, Yun Lan also knelt down.
Therefore, Yun Maozhe looked at Yun Lan suspiciously, especially when he looked at Yun Maozhe in disbelief, “Brother Lan, you?”
Yun Lan knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily. He said loudly, “Father, I also know about this matter.”
“What?” Yun Maozhe felt as if there was a burst of anger in his heart. No matter what, he couldn’t get up and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Madam Lu immediately patted Yun Maozhe on the back and said, “Master, if there’s anything wrong, tell him properly. Don’t be angry, let the children get up first.”
However, this time, Yun Maozhe did not listen to Madam Lu’s words. He stared at Yun Lan and the others with a pair of sharp eyes. He looked back and forth on the faces of the three of them and said loudly, “What exactly is going on?”
Before Yun Xiao and Rong Jin opened their mouths, Yun Lan directly said, “I went to West Vietnam this time. Now, I have earned an estate for the Yun Family in West Vietnam. Now, I also have a rank five official position in the West Vietnamese army.”
It was supposed to be a pleasure for their son to be able to fight to such an extent, but now, they were not happy at all.
If the fame and industry they earned were all in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, they would be so happy that they couldn’t sleep. However, Yun Lan’s fame and industry were all earned in an enemy country. How could they make others happy?
Yun Maozhe gasped for breath, but there was still a breath left before he fainted.
Madam Lu anxiously called out, “Master, Master, how are you? Don’t scare me!”
Second Master Yun and the others also looked over anxiously. They worriedly called Yun Maozhe’s name and kept pinching Yun Maozhe’s people.
Yun Xiao knew that this matter would be difficult for her parents to accept. After all, Yun Clan had always been in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and had never left. She had already taken root in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. But now, her daughter had actually married the royal family of Country of Xiyue. In the eyes of the royal family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, this was a crime of treason.
The crime of treason should be punished according to the law!
In his previous life, the Yun Clan had been accused of treason, resulting in the destruction of their clan and the deaths of more than 200 members of their clan!
In his previous life, this accusation had been forcefully planted, but in this life, Yun Xiao had actually settled this accusation.
Right now, on the head of the Yun Clan was a sharp sword. This sword would fall at any moment and kill everyone. How could they not be angry?
Seeing that Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with worry, Rong Jin immediately stepped forward to check Yun Maozhe’s pulse. A moment later, he took out a silver needle and stabbed it into Yun Maozhe. He saw Yun Maozhe spit out a mouthful of phlegm and slowly woke up.
However, Yun Maozhe, who had woken up, had an extremely embarrassed expression. He looked at Yun Xiao, Rong Jin, and the others with self-blame and worry in his eyes.
Yun Xiao anxiously said, “Father, what do you think now?”
Yun Maozhe glanced at Yun Xiao and directly closed his eyes again. He had always thought that this daughter was well-behaved and had the intention to entrust all of Yun Clan’s property to Yun Xiao. However, he did not expect that this daughter, who was already more important than his son in his heart, would actually do such a foolish thing.
The more Yun Maozhe thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt in his heart. It was like the persistence in his heart collapsed in this instant, and he didn’t know what to do in the future.
Seeing that Yun Maozhe was unwilling to talk to him, Yun Xiao looked at Rong Jin with a look of sorrow in her eyes.
Rong Jin said softly, “Father is only in a hurry to attack my heart. It’s fine.”
Only then did Yun Xiao relax. Seeing the way everyone in the room looked at her, although they were confused and confused, she did not blame them. Her heart warmed slightly and she said softly, “Daddy, didn’t Daddy suspect that something was wrong with her daughter at the end of September last year?”
Just as her words sounded, Yun Maozhe immediately opened his eyes to look at Yun Xiao. There was a trace of disbelief in his eyes. He had always had doubts about this matter. Ever since the end of September last year, Yun Xiao seemed to have changed into a different person. He had doubts at that time, but he knew that this was his daughter, so he chose to believe her.
But now, according to Yun Xiao’s words, there was clearly something hidden about this matter.
Yun Xiao’s transformation was clear to Yun Maozhe and Madam Lu. In the past, Yun Xiao was cowardly, but since the end of September, Yun Xiao had been calm and reserved. If she hadn’t gone through something like this, there wouldn’t have been such a big change.
At that time, they all thought that Yun Xiao had been kidnapped, so they left behind the aftereffects.
But now, they wanted to hear what Yun Xiao said.
Yun Xiao took a deep breath, A trace of pain appeared in his eyes. “I went to the manor, After being kidnapped, I had a dream, In my dream, after I married the eldest young master of the Shen Family, Third Prince Zhou Jingyan asked the Yun Clan to marry me as his imperial concubine. Neither father nor mother agreed, But I married without hesitation, I thought I was married to a lover, He never thought that he would marry a wolf in sheep’s clothing, The Third Prince used the Yun Clan’s huge wealth to bribe civil and military officials, After obtaining the throne, I directly committed a great crime of treason against the Yun Clan. I directly beheaded more than 200 members of the Yun Clan. It was snowing heavily at that time. I saw with my own eyes that blood had drenched all the snowflakes. The blood on the ground, and in one night, the Yun Clan had all lost their lives … ”
As she spoke, her voice was still filled with hatred.
Everyone in the room looked at Yun Xiao in shock. They did not expect such a thing to happen.
Mrs. Lu felt Yun Xiao’s intense sadness and hatred and immediately comforted, “Xiao Xiao, these are just dreams, not real.”
Yun Xiao shook her head, “Mother, this dream is too real. It’s as if it happened in front of me. At that time, third sister married the eldest young master of the Shen Family and gave birth to a daughter.”
Everyone’s eyes widened in horror as soon as her words were spoken.
Yun Yao was indeed engaged to Shen Yingfan, and she was indeed pregnant. Although the child was not born, when the midwife gave birth to Yun Yao, she had already said that the child Yun Yao was pregnant with was a sister.
This was exactly the same as Yun Xiao’s dream.
Just as everyone was shocked, Yun Xiao continued, “Parents, think carefully. Before the New Year last year, Third Prince Zhou Jingyan wanted to marry me more than once, didn’t he? However, after having that dream, I thought of a way to push this marriage off.”
Everyone in the Yun Clan knew about Third Prince Zhou Jingyan’s request to marry Yun Xiao. At that time, they also disagreed. Zhou Jingyan had already begged the Emperor of Jin to marry him. If it wasn’t for Yun Xiao’s quick-wittedness, he would have already married Zhou Jingyan by now.
It could be said that Yun Xiao’s dreams were almost identical to reality. In other words, if she followed Yun Xiao’s dreams all the time, the ones waiting for the Yun Family would also be beheaded and shown to the public!
Everyone’s expressions became more and more unsightly. No matter what, it was impossible for them to escape death.
Yun Xiao’s gaze flashed across everyone’s faces. She whispered, “It’s also because of that dream that I changed so much. That’s why I let Second Brother go to Country of Xiyue to fight first. It can also be considered as leaving a path for us in Yun Clan. If we can’t stay in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, we can go to Country of Xiyue.” Originally, she only wanted to leave a path for Yun Clan, but she didn’t expect that she would use this path very quickly.
After Yun Xiao finished speaking, He heavily knelt down, “Daddy, I didn’t say it was my fault for Rong Jin’s identity. I didn’t expect to go to such a state with him. However, for the sake of the future of the Yun Family, I hope that Daddy can consider going to West Vietnam. Soon, the war between West Vietnam and East Jin will inevitably occur. You … need to make a decision,” Yun Maozhe whispered.
