Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 579
Chapter 579 Rong Xun Came
Yun Xiao did not go back to the Border City with Yun Lan. Instead, she told the others to go back first. She and Yun Lan found a place that they had to pass from the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Western Yue Dynasty to wait for Rong Jin’s arrival.
In addition to reading books, Yun Xiao also made clothes for Rong Jin, Ruo, and Er Xiao every day. Yun Xiao’s ability to make clothes was strong. In five days, she made clothes for Er Xiao and Ruo. Of course, this was also because Yun Xiao was worried about Rong Jin and could not sleep day and night.
Every time she couldn’t sleep, Yun Xiao would always think nonsense. In order to prevent herself from thinking nonsense, Yun Xiao could only make clothes to keep herself busy.
Only when she was busy would Yun Xiao stop thinking nonsense.
Not having a good rest every day, coupled with working day and night, she did not need much food. In just five days, Yun Xiao lost weight again.
Yun Lan felt guilt and heartache in his eyes. This fourth sister was clearly worried, but she kept all her worries in her heart. Ever since she arrived here five days ago, Yun Xiao had not said a word.
If this continued, Yun Lan didn’t know if Yun Xiao’s body could still hold on.
Helplessly, Yun Lan had no choice but to send the letter back to Border City on his own. On the one hand, he hoped that someone would send Nuo or Tongtong over. Looking at his children, Yun Xiao would not be like this and lose her vitality.
However, what Yun Lan hadn’t expected was that he had waited for a few days. He hadn’t waited for Second Young Master. Instead, he had waited for someone who couldn’t have appeared here.
Yun Lan looked at the man who was walking over. A faint peculiarity flashed through the depths of his eyes. Then, he quickly stepped forward and said respectfully, “Greetings, Emperor Taishang.”
Rong Xun wore a black robe today, and his entire body was cleaned up. He could not see any decadence. The flesh on his cheeks was slightly sunken, making the pair of amber eyes even more prominent. At this moment, the pair of amber eyes were filled with red blood. He looked at Yun Lan indifferently and said coldly, “How is she?”
No matter how Yun Lan talked to Yun Xiao these few days, Yun Xiao only smiled at him. Without saying a word, her pair of undisturbed eyes were filled with red blood. “Reporting to the Grand Emperor, Madam is making clothes for the Little Crown Prince and the Little Imperial Daughter.”
Yun Xiao was his fourth sister, or his biological sister. Naturally, he was distressed, but he did not want to go against her wishes.
Rong Xun frowned, then directly pushed open the door behind Yun Lan and walked in.
Yun Lan was slightly surprised. He frowned and could not say anything. He could only follow closely behind Rong Xun and enter.
Yun Xiao was making clothes for Tongtong. When she heard the door open, she did not raise her head. She only embroidered the clothes wholeheartedly. Only when a shadow fell on the clothes in her hand and blocked Yun Xiao’s line of sight did she raise her head. However, when she saw the man in front of her, a trace of surprise could not help but appear in her eyes.
Afterwards, Yun Xiao smiled at Rong Xun, signaling him to step aside from the light, but after a long time, there was no movement from Rong Xun.
Yun Xiao wrinkled her eyes in surprise, then packed up all the clothes in front of her, and then walked in another direction.
The instant Rong Xun saw Yun Xiao’s expression, his amber eyes frowned indiscernibly. Then, he furrowed his brows fiercely. Regarding Yun Xiao’s thinness and the stillness on his face, he only felt a faint pain in his heart.
Seeing Yun Xiao smiling indifferently at him, There was no life in that smile, When she saw Yun Xiao immediately turn around and leave, she said, Rong Xun’s eyes contracted sharply, and then he quickly stepped forward. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Yun Xiao and pointed at Yun Xiao’s acupoints with lightning speed. Yun Xiao only had time to glance at Rong Xun with her faint eyebrows before she lost consciousness and fell back weakly.
Rong Xun stretched out his hand to catch Yun Xiao’s falling body, then carefully hugged Yun Xiao in his arms, sized up the room, and then walked into the room with large strides.
Inside the room, Yun Lan looked at Rong Xun’s back and wrinkled his eyes. Why did he feel that Rong Xun’s attitude towards Yun Xiao was somewhat strange?
Thinking of Yun Xiao’s current identity and Rong Xun’s attitude, Yun Lan was surprised, so he immediately followed.
Inside, Rong Xun carefully placed Yun Xiao on the bed, shook off the quilt on one side, and covered Yun Xiao’s body. Looking at Yun Xiao’s tightly closed eyes, his mind unconsciously remembered the moment he saw Yun Xiao, and Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with red blood.
He remembered that Rong Jin had said before that Yun Xiao’s eyes had been soaked in ice water before, so it was very easy to hurt her eyes. If she did not rest for a long time, her eyes would shed tears. As for normal people, even if they stayed up for a few nights, they would at most have some red blood strands. If Yun Xiao’s eyes stayed up for so long, her eyes would definitely be injured.
He quickly walked out. Sure enough, he found a handkerchief where Yun Xiao was sitting. At this time, the handkerchief was completely soaked in blood. When he saw the handkerchief, Rong Xun’s eyes contracted sharply. Then, he looked at Yun Lan behind him. “How long has she been like that?”
When Yun Lan saw the blood handkerchief in Rong Xun’s hand, a trace of frustration appeared in his eyes. “It has been five days, this handkerchief?”
“Big Brother told me before that your fourth sister’s eyes were soaked in ice water. She couldn’t see for a period of time. Later on, she used many methods to repeat the light in her eyes. However, she couldn’t stay up late for long and couldn’t not rest. This was a fatal injury to her eyes. Even if she was a normal person, If he endured for too long, tears would flow out of his eyes even if he felt uncomfortable, let alone Yun Xiao.
Yun Lan stared at the handkerchief in Rong Xun’s hand in astonishment. His expression was slightly embarrassed. For the past five days, he had been guarding Yun Xiao every day, but he had not discovered anything strange about Yun Xiao.
Yun Lan slapped himself fiercely, “It’s all because I didn’t take good care of Fourth Sister.”
Rong Xun glanced at Yun Lan and sighed, “You don’t know what kind of temperament she has. If she doesn’t want others to know, she can hide it very well. You don’t have to blame yourself. How long has Big Brother been in the Eastern Jin Dynasty?”
“Five and a half days.” Normally, it would only take a few days to travel back and forth between the two cities. Rong Jin still needed to investigate the location of the gunpowder, so he would surely be delayed for a while.
Rong Xun frowned, and then said, “I’ll go pick up Big Brother. Yun Xiao, take care of this place. I ordered her sleep acupoint and let her sleep. Don’t wake her up. Also, go buy some incense that can calm her down and burn it in the room. If possible, let her sleep for a few more days.”
When he hugged Yun Xiao’s body, he checked Yun Xiao’s pulse. Although Rong Xun did not know any medical skills, some simple things could still be clearly distinguished. Yun Xiao’s body was empty and lacked sleep. It was unknown how long it had been since she had rested properly, which was why it was like this.
Yun Lan naturally agreed immediately. How dare she say anything else? He glanced at Yun Xiao lying on the bed and frowned tightly. Judging from Rong Xun’s expression, Yun Xiao’s body seemed to be really strange. He had to let Yun Xiao sleep soundly before he could say anything else.
Rong Xun was just about to leave when he took a step. After thinking for a while, he said worriedly, “When she wakes up, if we haven’t returned yet, get a doctor to take care of her body.”
Without waiting for Yun Lan to respond, Rong Xun turned around and pushed the door open.
However, in the room, Yun Lan’s eyes were filled with a deep and dense expression.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door again. Yun Lan quickly walked out and opened the door. Only then did he see the person outside clearly.
Tie Qinglan was dressed in casual clothes, but she was dressed as a man. Through Yun Lan’s body, she looked around the room. Wherever she touched, she did not see a familiar figure. She immediately said, “Where is he?”
Yun Lan stared at Tie Qinglan for a while before recognizing her identity. At this moment, he naturally knew who Tie Qinglan was asking, “Not here.”
“How could he not be here? I followed him all the way here,” Tie Qinglan said as she walked into the room.
However, Yun Lan’s body was standing at the door. No matter how Tie Qinglan pushed it, she could not enter the room. Tie Qinglan was also angry, “What exactly are you doing?”
Yun Lan thought for a moment and said, “Miss Tie, please go back. The Grand Emperor is not here. My sister is resting inside. Please keep Miss Tie’s voice down.”
“So, Yun Xiao is really here?” Tie Qinglan rolled her eyes. Since Yun Xiao was here, Rong Xun must have been here before, but she didn’t know where she went. However, since Yun Xiao was here, she only needed to wait here. Sooner or later, Rong Xun would come back.
After thinking about this, Tie Qinglan whispered, “Your sister and I met once again. Since she is here, then I will accompany her here as well.”
Yun Lan frowned this time, “I’m afraid this isn’t appropriate, right?”
Tie Qinglan chattered endlessly, “Why is it inappropriate? Furthermore, it’s inappropriate for you to take care of a woman by yourself. No matter what, I’m still a woman. Only when I’m with a woman can I say something. There are some things that you, a man, can’t tell you.”
Yun Lan felt that what Tie Qinglan said was reasonable. In the past five days, Yun Xiao hadn’t spoken a word to him. Although she didn’t want to say anything, if she could leave Tie Qinglan behind, relying on Tie Qinglan’s mouth skills, Yun Xiao wouldn’t have kept herself in the room like before.
After weighing the pros and cons, Yun Lan finally nodded and whispered, “Alright, you can stay. However, fourth sister needs a good rest these few days. Don’t disturb her.”
Tie Qinglan hurriedly promised, “Don’t worry, I still have some sense in my work.”
