Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 580
Chapter 580 On the Eve of War
Yun Xiao slept for three days and nights.
Apart from benefiting from Rong Xun clicking on her acupoints, Yun Lan had also used a lot of strength to buy the Fragrance of Tranquility.
Yun Xiao slowly opened her eyes. As soon as she opened them, she felt that there was someone lying beside her. A trace of joy flashed across her palm-sized elegant face. Even though she directly shouted, “Rong Jin, are you back?”
Yun Xiao only felt that her throat hurt a little and she was a little hoarse when she said this.
As soon as she spoke, Tie Qinglan, who was lying beside Yun Xiao, immediately woke up. Seeing Yun Xiao wake up, she said in surprise, “You’re finally awake?” In these three days, Tie Qinglan didn’t even have anyone to talk to. Yun Lan didn’t talk to her, so she could only stay by Yun Xiao’s side. Originally, she wanted to make a set of clothes like Yun Xiao, but as soon as she got the needle, she directly bent it. Tie Qinglan simply threw the needle and thread away.
She bought a few more books to pass the time. After reading for half a day, she felt that what was written in the book was too ridiculous. Therefore, she gave up and burned the book. Sure enough, these pieces of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting were not suitable for her. She was bored and could only watch over Yun Xiao and sleep here.
As a result, the Fragrance of Tranquility was too drowsy, and she couldn’t help but fall asleep as well.
Yun Xiao stared fixedly at Tie Qinglan’s face. As she listened to her words, there was a faint disappointment on her face. She originally thought that Rong Jin had returned, but who knew …
That’s right. Rong Jin always had a faint fragrance of magnolia flowers on his body, but Tie Qinglan didn’t. When she woke up just now, she just felt that she was too surprised to notice this.
Tie Qinglan naturally saw clearly the disappointment in Yun Xiao’s eyes. She smiled lightly and poured a glass of water for Yun Xiao. She helped Yun Xiao up from the bed before saying, “Drink some water first. I’ll tell you some good news later.”
Yun Xiao’s mind was immediately attracted by Tie Qinglan’s good news.
Could the good news at this time be related to Rong Jin? Yun Xiao had not heard from Rong Jin for several days. She was eager to know. After drinking the water immediately, she stared at Tie Qinglan with burning eyes. “Speak.”
Tie Qinglan blinked his eyes. He smiled and said, “I heard, Dong Jin did not know what had happened these past few days, Just last night, I heard a rumble, I thought it was thunder, “Hurry up and run out, but there is no thunder outside. Your second brother went to find someone to investigate. Only then did he know that something big had happened at the border of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Our troops from Country of Xiyue have already moved north. Quite a few good news came back. It shouldn’t be long before we can hear the news that Country of Xiyue’s army has knocked down the border of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.” Tie Qinglan always had an inexplicable interest in fighting. When she heard this news, Tie Qinglan was very annoyed that she was not in Border Town. Otherwise, she would definitely participate in this battle.
Thinking that she could participate in the war, Tie Qinglan felt her blood boiling.
When Yun Xiao heard this news from Tie Qinglan, her first reaction was that Rong Jin lit up the batch of gunpowder that had been transported to Border City from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, causing quite a bit of chaos at the border. In addition to Country of Xiyue’s timely siege of the city, it was naturally easy to take down the city.
However, Yun Xiao was not happy at all. She immediately grabbed Tie Qinglan’s hand and looked at Tie Qinglan’s dancing expression. She anxiously said, “Since the news of the victory has been sent back, then Rong Jin can send the news back? How is he now?”
After being asked by Yun Xiao, the joy on Tie Qinglan’s face calmed down. She secretly glanced at Yun Xiao and whispered, “I don’t know either, but I believe your second brother should know.” She only heard about the war yesterday and did not pay attention to it.
Yun Xiao fell back in disappointment and almost crashed into the bed pillar behind her. Her face was filled with unconcealable sorrow.
It had been so long since the gunpowder had been detonated last night. If Rong Jin was fine, he would have sent the news back long ago. Since there was no news yet, it could only mean that something had really happened to Rong Jin.
Thinking of the news of Rong Jin’s accident, Yun Xiao felt her heart pounding.
However, Yun Xiao did not abandon herself because of this. Even if she helped the bed out of bed, put on her shoes, and walked out with her outer robe.
However, at this moment, Yun Xiao’s body was very weak. She almost fell off the bed in such a hurry. Fortunately, Tie Qinglan had martial arts in her hands, so she reacted very quickly and caught Yun Xiao’s body quickly. “Why are you in such a hurry?”
Yun Xiao glanced at her and was about to struggle, “I want to ask Second Brother. Second Brother will definitely know what happened.”
Yun Xiao, whom Tie Qinglan knew, had always been reserved and calm. She had never seen Yun Xiao so anxious, She rolled her eyes, Seeing that Yun Xiao had been struggling non-stop, She simply reached out and pointed at Yun Xiao’s acupoint. She placed Yun Xiao on the bed and under Yun Xiao’s puzzled gaze, she whispered, “Your second brother was already called back in the middle of the night. Right now, there are only the two of us here. Your second brother instructed me to take care of you here, so even if you go out now, you still can’t find Yun Lan’s whereabouts. Why are you in such a hurry?”
Yun Xiao looked at Tie Qinglan in disbelief. She never expected that Yun Lan would not be here. She stared at Tie Qinglan with an extremely embarrassed expression. “Do you know where my second brother went?” If Yun Lan had gone to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, something must have happened to Rong Jin.
Tie Qinglan saw Yun Xiao blink her eyes and said, “I don’t know. However, you can’t be so excited right now. Calm down first. Let’s talk slowly about what’s going on.” After seeing Yun Xiao blink her eyes, Tie Qinglan finally came down. Only then did she unlock Yun Xiao’s acupoints.
Yun Xiao looked at Tie Qinglan with a somewhat dispirited expression and said with a somewhat worried expression, “Can you find out about the frontlines now?”
Tie Qinglan felt sympathy for Rong Xun when she saw that Yun Xiao’s mind was entirely on Rong Jin. “I can’t do anything, but if we go back to Border City, with the Emperor here, we might be able to get more information.”
Hearing Tie Qinglan’s words, Yun Xiao said, “Right, go back to Border City. Let’s go back now.” After Yun Xiao finished speaking, she quickly got out of bed and wrapped all the clothes she had made a few days ago in a bundle. Then, she walked in front of Tie Qinglan and said, “I’m ready. We can leave now.”
Regarding Yun Xiao’s speed, Tie Qinglan blinked her eyes. A hint of confusion flashed through her eyes. Then she coughed softly and said, “Since you’re ready, let’s go.” Rather than stay here and wait for news, it would be better to return to Border City.
Seeing that Yun Xiao was worried about Rong Jin, Tie Qinglan couldn’t help but wonder, what happened to Rong Xun now? Was he also injured? Is it serious?
Tie Qinglan’s cheeks immediately blushed when she noticed what she was thinking. She was still Yun Ying’s unmarried woman, how could she casually think of a man?
After cursing herself in her heart, Tie Qinglan took Yun Xiao out the door and rode with her in the direction of becoming.
Tie Qinglan was also a little anxious. In addition, Yun Xiao had been urging her, so Tie Qinglan pushed the horse’s speed to the limit. She thought that such speed would frighten Yun Xiao, but she did not expect that although Yun Xiao’s face was somewhat pale, her expression became more and more calm.
Compared to the panic she felt when she woke up, Yun Xiao was completely different.
However, thinking that Yun Lan had told Yun Xiao that she was not in good health, Tie Qinglan stopped halfway to rest before continuing on her journey.
However, as she got closer and closer, Tie Qinglan’s mood became even more frantic.
Yun Xiao also noticed Tie Qinglan’s emotional change. She looked at Tie Qinglan in puzzlement, “Miss Tie, what’s wrong with you?”
Tie Qinglan looked at Yun Xiao firmly and said, “I’m fine.” Tie Qinglan wanted to ask if Yun Xiao knew Rong Xun’s intentions and what she would do. Or, did she care about Rong Xun’s life or death?
But when she thought of Rong Xun’s drunken dreams of the past few days, she felt that exposing the matter would make Rong Xun even more embarrassed in front of Rong Jin. No matter what, Yun Xiao’s current identity was Rong Xun’s sister-in-law.
This matter had been suppressed in Tie Qinglan’s heart for several days. Every time she saw Yun Xiao’s elegant face, she would think of the drunk Rong Xun.
Taking a deep breath, Tie Qinglan said as gently as possible, “Yunxiao, what do you think of Rong Xun?” Because she was already very familiar with them, Tie Qinglan liked to call her name directly. She only felt a headache when she called out for those people with messy identities.
Yun Xiao did not expect Tie Qinglan to hesitate for a while. It was actually about asking Rong Xun. She raised her head and saw the flush on Tie Qinglan’s face when she said Rong Xun’s name. She understood, “Rong Xun is a very good person and has a very sense of responsibility. If he likes a woman, she would definitely be very happy, but …”
When Tie Qinglan saw Yun Xiao say this, she immediately pricked up her ears and listened. Especially when she heard Yun Xiao say that the woman he liked would definitely be very happy, Tie Qinglan did not notice. The way she looked at Yun Xiao already carried a trace of envy.
However, one of Yun Xiao’s actions was to ruthlessly hang Tie Qinglan’s heart. Seeing that Yun Xiao’s eyebrows unconsciously knitted, Tie Qinglan’s heart became even more nervous. It had been a long time since she had received a response from Yun Xiao. Tie Qinglan really couldn’t hold back. Even if she said, “Just what?”
When Yun Xiao thought about how Rong Jin had been tortured by the love poison of the Acacia Grass, her heart ached. Rong Jin had only been tortured by the love poison for a period of time, but Rong Xun had been tortured by the love poison for a full ten years!
How many decades does a person have in life? Moreover, in Rong Xun’s best years, the people who were tortured by the poison of love were neither ghosts nor ghosts.
When she thought of the ebony ghost mask that Rong Xun always wore, she knew that it must be because of the poison on his body that he didn’t want everyone to see him, much less anyone to see his enduring appearance.
How could such a person, who knew how to endure, be easily moved?
