Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 555
Chapter 555 Understand One’s Intentions
When Zhou Jingxu heard Yun Xiao say the first half of the sentence, a trace of hope arose in his eyes. He looked at Yun Xiao in surprise. Just as he was about to ask, could his broken muscles and veins really be connected?
However, after Yun Xiao finished speaking, her face turned pale for a moment, and her eyes were filled with confusion.
Afterwards, he said loudly, “No, I can’t let Father down! Yunxiao, you are also from the Eastern Jin Dynasty!”
Speaking of the Jin Emperor, a cold smile appeared in Yun Xiao’s eyes. “I’m sorry, what should I say? Although I’m from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, my husband is the Swallow King of Country of Xiyue. Also, don’t think that your father’s hand hasn’t been stained with blood and hasn’t thought about unifying the two kingdoms?”
“What do you mean by that?” Zhou Jingxu was only ten years old. However, in addition to the more than ten years he had lived in his previous life, he was still in his twenties. However, he still felt that his brain was not enough at this moment.
“In order to bring Country of Xiyue into the territory of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, your father killed my husband’s mother, and Princess An Hua pretended to be the Empress of Country of Xiyue. She has been in power in Country of Xiyue for many years and secretly bought off quite a few ministers of Country of Xiyue.” When Yun Xiao talked about this matter, her heart was still filled with anger. Especially when she thought about the situation before Mu Zhi died, her heart couldn’t help but tremble.
“No, it won’t. Besides, didn’t Sister An Hua die many years ago?” Ever since he was sensible, he had not seen An Hua’s figure. He had only accidentally heard from the palace people that An Hua had passed away because of his illness the year he was born.
Yun Xiao didn’t want to explain too much, only the truth could make people believe it. “I think it won’t be long before you can see the real An Hua.”
Zhou Jingxu still looked at Yun Xiao in shock. He knew that Yun Xiao did not lie about her character. In other words, what she said was the truth. But why did her words completely subvert all of his cognition?
Yun Xiao looked at the time and said directly, “It’s almost time. We can’t stay any longer. Otherwise, we won’t be able to leave by ourselves. It’s up to you whether you want to leave now or not. If you’re willing to leave with us, we’ll naturally bring you along. As for whether you want to follow us to Country of Xiyue or stay in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it’s up to you.” However, if you continue to endure torture and wait for death here, I will not force you. ”
Zhou Jingxu took a deep breath and said, “I’ll leave with you.” He didn’t want to live like this anymore. He wanted to go out and live like a normal person.
Hearing Zhou Jingxu’s words, Yun Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked helplessly at Rong Jin, who was standing beside him, and the corner of his mouth rose slightly. “I’m going to trouble my husband again.”
Rong Jin shook his head and sighed. Then, he quickly stepped forward and leaned over to Zhou Jingxu and said, “Please endure for a while. I’ll temporarily help you fix your bone first.”
“Alright,” Zhou Jingxu said loudly. He had suffered the pain before, but now he was a little numb.
Rong Jin quickly tapped on Zhou Jingxu’s body a few times, then quickly took the broken bones from Zhou Jingxu’s body and said, “Alright, let’s go first.”
Zhou Jingxu’s face was pale without a trace of blood, and his forehead was covered in sweat. He said weakly, “Thank you.”
Rong Jinen said, “No problem.” After he finished speaking, he lifted Zhou Jingxu up and continued to walk out with Yun Xiao in one hand.
After leaving the secret passage, Rong Jin first listened to the commotion outside the house. The outside was in a mess, especially since there were already hidden guards in the courtyard. However, he did not approach the house and only stopped in the courtyard.
Rong Jin frowned. He immediately threw Zhou Jingxu aside, He silently walked to the window, Looking out, Listening to the Dark Guard’s breathing, Finally, he found the location of the hidden guard, He first picked up a teacup and threw it at the open space outside. Then, he saw a few black shadows flying towards the direction of the room. Rong Jin’s expression was cold. The silver needle in his hand flew towards the black-clothed man. Then, he saw three black-clothed men fall down. There was still a black shadow flying towards him. Rong Jin grabbed the window and started to fight with the black-clothed man.
Because he was afraid of attracting more people, Rong Jin wanted to finish the battle quickly and kill the black-clothed man as quickly as possible. However, because of the magnitude of his movements, the wounds on his body were pulled and blood oozed out.
Yun Xiao pulled away the robe on his wrist, revealing the place where Yun Xiao had bandaged him. At this moment, there were traces of blood on the bandaged cloth, pulling the cloth apart a little. Rong Jin saw that the place that the poisonous bat had pecked had already been dyed black.
He let out a long sigh and lightly tapped on the acupoints where the black blood seeped out. Rong Jin carefully covered up the wound before he entered the room and pulled Yun Xiao and Zhou Jingxu up. “Let’s go.”
Rong Jin held Zhou Jingxu in one hand, The other hand grabbed Yun Xiao’s waist. He quickly flew towards the courtyard that he had come from before. Along the way, he chose a path that few people would take. Of course, along the way, he naturally attracted many hidden guards and patrolling guards from the Third Prince’s Mansion. However, Rong Jin’s qinggong was extremely good, and he was able to display his qinggong to the fastest. He was not caught by those people, but those people followed him to the Desolate Courtyard.
After the three of them entered the room, Rong Jin first placed Yun Xiao at the secret entrance, then went back to pick up the crazy woman who had been pointed at an acupoint and walked towards the secret entrance.
Hearing that the people chasing after him were getting closer and closer, Rong Jin directly closed the door to the secret entrance. He glanced at Yun Xiao who was waiting and said softly, “Let’s go.”
Yun Xiao’en said with a gracious voice and followed behind Rong Jin towards the front.
However, halfway through the journey, he felt a thick smoke coming from behind him. Moreover, the smell was very pungent and faintly made him feel very uncomfortable.
Rong Jin frowned, “This smoke is poisonous. I have some antidote in my arms. Xiaoxiao, take it out and feed it to them.”
Yun Xiao immediately complied. However, not long after, they felt that the smoke behind them was getting thicker and thicker, and the visibility of their line of sight had also decreased considerably.
Rong Jin led the way. Not long after, he walked more than half the way to the sunken land.
Previously, it was Rong Jin who hugged Yun Xiao and borrowed some strength to finally arrive here safely.
Right now, Rong Jin had to bring a lot of people, so the original method was obviously not suitable.
Yun Xiao frowned. Just as she was about to discuss with Rong Jin how to get there, she saw that Rong Jin had already forcefully thrown the crazy woman in the opposite direction. The crazy woman flipped back and forth in the air a few times before finally landing on the ground. After rolling a few times, she finally landed safely on the ground.
Rong Jin looked awkwardly at Zhou Jingxu on the other side. Zhou Jingxu’s body simply couldn’t withstand such a tumble.
At this moment, his sleeve was pulled by someone. Turning around, he saw Yun Xiao looking at him with a smile and whispering, “Throw me over.”
Rong Jin frowned. He didn’t want Yun Xiao to be like this, but now, he had no choice but to nod his head.
Grabbing Yun Xiao in his hand, he looked deeply at Yun Xiao and threw Yun Xiao over. Afterwards, Rong Jin also grabbed Zhou Jingxu and flew towards the opposite side. Every time he was unable to exert his strength, he would use his foot to forcefully kick on the wall beside him and continue forward!
Within a few breaths, Rong Jin had already brought Zhou Jingxu to the opposite side. Seeing that Yun Xiao had just landed, he immediately walked over and surrounded Yun Xiao. However, because the impact of the flight was a little strong, Rong Jin retreated several times before stabilizing his body.
She gently patted Yun Xiao’s back and whispered, “Let’s go out quickly.”
Yun Xiao graciously helped Rong Jin bring both the crazy woman and Zhou Jingxu along. Among them, Zhou Jingxu’s gaze had been following Yun Xiao’s figure. Finally, he let out a long sigh, and a self-deprecating expression appeared in his eyes.
He sighed softly. Judging from the short time he had spent with Rong Jin and Yun Xiao, Zhou Jingxu could already feel that no matter what Rong Jin did, he would take care of Yun Xiao’s safety first.
He had to admit that Yun Xiao and Rong Jin had made the right choice together. She must be very happy in the future, right?
In his previous life, he had often followed behind Yun Xiao, but it was rare to see Yun Xiao have such a bright smile. Now, every time Yun Xiao looked at Rong Jin, although there was no smile on her face, there was a very relaxed expression in her eyes. That kind of expression was one of trust in Rong Jin wholeheartedly.
Rong Jin looked at Zhou Jingxu with a strange look in his eyes, especially when he saw the way Zhou Jingxu looked at Yun Xiao. As a man, Rong Jin could not help but understand what it meant.
However, Yun Xiao was now his wife. Even if other people coveted her, they could only look at her. Especially, he could see that Zhou Jingxu did not let Yun Xiao know what he meant.
Zhou Jingxu was only ten years old, so why did his eyes seem to have experienced the wind and frost?
This made Rong Jin feel that his expression was somewhat similar to Yun Xiao’s sometimes, so this made Rong Jin feel a little uncomfortable.
However, thinking that Yun Xiao was now his wife, his heart felt a little more comfortable. Moreover, he would not allow other men to snatch people away from him.
He lifted Zhou Jingxu and the crazy woman up, exchanged glances with Zhou Jingxu, and then continued walking forward.
On the contrary, the moment Zhou Jingxu saw Rong Jin’s gaze, he was slightly shocked. He actually knew his intentions?
However, when Zhou Jingxu was shocked, Rong Jin already carried him forward quickly.
Because all the poisonous bats had been poisoned to death by Rong Jin, it would be much easier for them to leave.
However, after the four of them left the thatched cottage, they saw many black-clothed men and guards standing outside the thatched cottage, as if they had been waiting for a long time …
