668 A Family Reunion, Torturing Scumbags Together
This aggrieved and angry tone.
It was said that only with someone doting on her was she qualified to feel aggrieved. However, ever since she was young, she had been the one without her father’s love.
The nanny who was sent to take care of her vented all her resentment on her because she had left her hometown.
She grew up like a weed.
In the end, no one could bully her anymore. But she was clearly not being bullied now, so why—
Little Sly Jiang sat cross-legged on the ground with her feet facing each other. She grabbed her feet with both hands and bent her little body slightly like a pitiful little bullfrog.
“How can it not be you?” Consort Yun knelt up behind her.
“It’s not me,” she said aggrievedly.
Suddenly, she felt a warmth on her back.
It was Consort Yun who hugged her gently. The fragrance that belonged to Consort Yun lingered around Little Sly Jiang. It was an indescribable aura. It was fragrant but not strong, fragrant but not gloomy. It was a smell that… she had never had in her memory.
Little Sly Jiang lowered her head even more. If Consort Yun walked around, she could see that her palm-sized face was a little red.
However, Consort Yun did not. She only hugged her gently, as if she was hugging her beloved mutton dumplings. She said in a low voice, “You were sent away a few days after you were born. I never thought I would see you again in my life.”
She would always remember that snowy night. After giving birth, she lay weakly on the cold bed. A group of strong nannies rushed in and forcefully took the child in her arms.
The child’s cries echoed outside the palace door for a long time. She knelt in the snow and begged the man to return the child to her.
However, he did not.
He only turned his back coldly.
“Your Majesty, the Little Princess is crying. The Empress can’t coax her.”
She saw a trace of nervousness and urgency appear between the man’s eyebrows. He headed towards the woman’s bedchamber.
She had been expecting her year after year until her hair turned white. She had been expecting until half of her body was almost planted in the yellow soil, until she was in despair. Unexpectedly, she appeared without warning.
She was no longer the same as before, but she still recognized her at a glance. She knew nothing about how she had been all these years, but she knew that she must have suffered a lot. A girl who had been protected and raised should be like Nangong Yan and Nangong Xi, so weak that she could be pinched to death with one hand. Every ability she had had the shadow of her being bullied.
Consort Yun’s heart ached so much that she almost cried. She was ostracized in the palace and knew this feeling better than anyone. However, she was old after all and knew how to protect herself. Poor her. How did a child like her grow up?
Every time Consort Yun thought about it, she could not help but scold the Emperor and his Empress in her heart!
Not a good person!
Consort Yun hugged her for a while and felt that the body in her arms was not as stiff as before. She gently turned her little body so that she could lie on her side and hug her better.
In the temple, the cold wind was silent. No one said anything. This was the peace that belonged to them alone.
Consort Yun’s heart, which had long been petrified and was riddled with holes, seemed to have started beating again. She felt the blood flowing back in her body, as if her breathing had become different.
The mother and daughter hugged each other quietly. Suddenly, Nangong Li woke up. He secretly glanced at the two of them who were immersed in their huge emotions and confirmed that this was a good time to escape. He quietly propped himself up with his hands, but before he could completely stand up, the mother and daughter showed their fists and punched him until he had panda eyes and fell to the ground!
“Let’s go back to the meditation room. It’s cold here.”
Of course it’s cold. The four walls had been punched through by a certain someone. The night wind blew in. Consort Yun expressed that her old bones could not take it.
“Okay,” Little Sly Jiang replied shyly.
Consort Yun held her weak little hand. She lowered her head and followed behind Consort Yun shyly, looking especially obedient. Suddenly, a fish that had escaped the net rushed over with a spear.
Little Sly Jiang became crazy in a second and punched him into the crack. Consort Yun naturally did not think that there was anything wrong. No matter what, she was her child.
Consort Yun looked at her dotingly. She took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her forehead. There were many unconscious guards and sacrificial soldiers on the ground.
Little Sly Jiang took the lead and walked in front. With each step, she cleared the path. Just as she was about to enter the meditation room, a strong man’s voice suddenly came from the foot of the mountain. “Ah Shu—”
Little Sly Jiang, who was extremely strong, suddenly stiffened. In the next second, she held her temples and fell to the ground weakly.
The corners of Consort Yun’s mouth twitched. “…”
Yu Shaoqing had picked up the note that Little Sly Jiang had forgotten to destroy in his room and found out that Ah Shu had come to Changting Temple behind their backs. Because the note did not say that it was for Yu Wan, Yu Shaoqing did not know that the person Nangong Li wanted to lure over at the beginning was actually Yu Wan.
Consort Yun was Ah Shu’s biological mother. She had been kidnapped. It made sense that Ah Shu would go alone according to the note.
His Ah Shu was such a kind and filial woman! She must have hidden the truth from them because she didn’t want to implicate them!
This kind of Ah Shu was really too heartbreaking!
“Ah Shu!”
Yu Shaoqing ran into the temple and looked at the mess on the ground. He was so frightened that his legs and stomach trembled!
“Ah Shu! Where are you!”
“Ah Shu!”
Yu Shaoqing shouted as he ran towards the back of the temple.
Yu Wan, who was following closely behind, held her waist while panting. “Uh… Dad… Wait for me…”
How could Yu Shaoqing have the time to wait for her? Didn’t she see that there were so many sacrificial soldiers and guards lying here? A very terrifying duel must have erupted here. His Ah Shu… was most likely dead!
“Ah Shu!”
Finally, Yu Shaoqing saw the unconscious Ah Shu at the door of a meditation room. He walked over and pulled the dying Ah Shu into his arms. His heart ached as he said, “Ah Shu, wake up. Ah Shu, don’t scare me…”
Little Sly Jiang opened her eyes weakly and coughed a few times. “Hubby, why are you here?”
Yu Shaoqing hurriedly said, “Don’t talk! I’ll bring you down the mountain to find a doctor first!”
No, his daughter was a doctor! Yu Shaoqing put Ah Shu back to her original place and used his qinggong to come out of the temple. He carried the out-of-breath Yu Wan over. “Quick! See how your mother is.”
Yu Wan was strangled till she rolled her eyes. Shouldn’t you be looking at me at this time?
Creak—
The door to the meditation room opened.
A madam in plain clothes appeared in front of the two of them. In terms of age, she was not young, but because she had taken good care of herself, she looked to be in her early forties. She had a pair of charming almond-shaped eyes and slender eyebrows like two curved moons. Time had left traces on her face, but it did not affect her unique temperament and beauty.
“You are…” Yu Wan blinked at her.
Consort Yun was originally wearing a gorgeous palace dress. This was the effect of wearing a thin veil after wearing the palace dress inside out. She looked like a virtuous woman.
Consort Yun looked at her dignifiedly and revealed a benevolent smile. “You look so similar. You’re the Eldest Princess’s child, right? I’m Consort Yun.”
If the people in the palace saw Consort Yun speak so seriously, they would probably go crazy from fear. This crazy consort who made a fuss every two to three days could actually be so dignified and quiet?
Consort Yun smiled brightly.
Silly girl, call me Grandmother! Call me! I can’t hold it in anymore!
Yu Wan looked at her in a daze. “You’re Consort Yun, then you’re my…”
“Mother—”
Yu Shaoqing knelt on the ground!
Consort Yun’s eyebrows trembled and the corners of her mouth twitched. She said to Yu Wan, “Child, don’t listen to your father. I’m not your mother.” She turned around, took out her handkerchief, and cried. “Son-in-law—I’ve finally seen you—if you hadn’t come—the two of us would have been bullied to death by that bastard Nangong Li—”
It was not easy for Nangong Li to wake up for the umpteenth time. He was limping to the entrance of the temple. When he heard these words, he was so angry that he staggered a few steps!
Who was bullying who? Have you two lost a single strand of hair? My ribs are broken! My leg is dislocated! My nose and eyes are swollen! More importantly, there are so many guards and sacrificial soldiers who were knocked down. Are you blind!!!
Yu Shaoqing clenched his fists. “I guessed it was that guy! He actually dared to bully Ah Shu and Mom like this. Mom, don’t worry. I’ll capture him now! Teach him a lesson!”
Hence, after being ravaged by the mother and daughter, Nangong Li encountered Yu Shaoqing’s thunderous anger again. He was really in a miserable state.
