Was Duanmu Yao's actions a conspiracy, or an accident? Let's see how Duanmu Yao will deal with the Tang Clan.
By now, news of Tang Li's humble apology had spread like wildfire. The cursed Tang Li had earned more or less sympathy and forgiveness. Some even said that he was a responsible and responsible man.
Han Yunxi heard the reports from the servants and sighed with emotion. What's wrong with this world?!
If Tang Li really did something so humiliating, she'd never treat him as a friend again. She didn't know what the people outside were thinking, but some of them actually forgave Tang Li.
Inside the room, everyone was still sitting.
No one blamed Aunt Ru anymore, but waited for news from Duanmu Yao's side.
If her injuries were light, there might be room to turn the situation around. If they were serious, then the Tang Clan would be offending Old Kenzō instead of Cang Qiuzi.
The wait was long and arduous.
An entire night passed without news.
Lady Tang stretched lazily. "Everyone, go rest. If it's a blessing, it's not a disaster. If it's a disaster, we can't avoid it."
She'd hardly finished speaking when Chu Xifeng rushed in. "Your Highness, there's a letter from Old Kenzō!"
Tang Zijin's heart trembled with fear. "So fast!"
"Duanmu Yao must have told on us!" Lady Tang said hatefully.
But Chu Xifeng only explained, "It's not for the Tang Clan, but for His Highness."
A letter from Old Kenzō to Long Fei Ye?
A coincidence?
Or did Old Kenzō find out about Long Fei Ye's relationship with the Tang Clan? How did he know?
The atmosphere grew tense as everyone stared at the letter in Chu Xifeng's hands, their hearts trembling with fear. No one noticed the satisfied smile in Aunt Ru's eyes.
Long Fei Ye was still calm as he slowly opened the letter. No one else dared to approach, but Han Yunxi stood by his side to read with him.
As she read, her face grew gloomy.
"What's going on?" Tang Zijin couldn't help but ask.
His original plan was to leave Long Feiye an escape route at Celestial Mountain. If he ended up hurting Long Feiye instead, how was he supposed to face his dead little sister?
Han Yunxi returned to her seat in silence. Long Fei Ye turned to look at her. A helpless smile flitted across his lips. He didn't say anything and just tossed the letter to Tang Zijin.
The moment Tang Zijin received the letter, everyone gathered around him. Aunt Ru was the last to lean over. She seemed to know the contents of the letter and was just pretending to read it.
Unfortunately, Long Fei Ye's attention was all on Han Yunxi and he didn't notice her.
Tang Zijin and the others only saw the first part of the content.
"Fortunately, his injuries aren't serious. He can still be saved." Tang Zijin sighed as he watched.
Tang Li exhaled deeply. "Aunt Ru, it's a good thing you didn't hit him too hard. Otherwise, the meteor dart would've been enough to make her suffer."
Lady Tang exhaled as well. "Duanmu Yao's probably busy treating her injuries. Zijin, we have to announce the news before she does. "
"Mother, find someone to talk to Ouyang Ning Jing and have her denounce Duanmu Yao. Then we'll apologize and mediate," Tang Li said hastily.
After this incident, everyone had become experts at public relations.
By now, Tang Zijin had finished reading the rest of the letter. "Duanmu Yao needs someone to help treat her injuries," he said.
Tang Li and the rest looked over anxiously at his words. After reading the rest of the letter, Chu Xifeng was the first to look at Long Fei Ye. Everyone else followed suit.
Old Man Kenzō wrote that Duanmu Yao had suffered internal injuries and needed someone with strong internal energy to treat her. He told Long Fei Ye to find Duanmu Yao immediately. He had to treat her injuries and take good care of her. He had to find the person who hurt her and take revenge. As soon as the snow melted, he had to bring her back to Celestial Mountain to recover.
Although it was written in words, the three words "must" made it so that everyone who read the letter could clearly sense the Sword Sect Master's commanding tone. They could also clearly sense the Sword Sect Master's love for Duanmu Yao.
Long Fei Ye didn't owe Duanmu Yao anything. Old Man Kenzō was being too biased!
By the tea table, Han Yunxi was sitting with a serious expression while Long Feiye stood in front of her. Although his back was tall and imposing, he still looked like someone who'd committed a crime and was waiting to be interrogated.
Chu Xifeng couldn't help but gulp. Based on his experience, esteemed wangfei was truly unhappy. The problem was very serious.
Tang Zijin and the rest of his family exchanged glances with complicated expressions.
Aunt Ru stood on one side, staring Cold at Han Yunxi with disdain and loathing in her eyes.
She really didn't understand what right this damned girl had to throw a tantrum at Feiye. Duanmu Yao was deeply doted on by Old Man Kenzō and had the skills to hook up with Cang Qiuzi. In the future, Celestial Mountain would be her world. What right did Han Yunxi have to compare to her? What right did she have to be jealous?
In the silence of the room, they couldn't see Long Fei Ye's expression. All they could see was Han Yunxi's cold little face, which made everyone feel uneasy.
Tang Zijin was the first to break the silence with a sigh. "Thank goodness, thank goodness. It looks like Old Man Kenzō doesn't know anything. Duanmu Yao only said she was injured, but didn't say how. "
Aunt Ru hastened to add, "Duanmu Yao came to help Cang Qiuzi this time. She wouldn't be stupid enough to tell Old Man Kenzō. Those two elders of Celestial Mountain are still at odds with each other. "
Tang Zijin slapped his forehead. "That's right, that's right! It was a false alarm! A false alarm! Old Man Kenzō spends most of his time in closed door cultivation and rarely comes out. He wouldn't know unless someone went to tell on her. "
Why didn't he think of that just then? As long as they didn't offend Old Man Kenzō, he wouldn't have to worry so much.
"With Duanmu Yao in the way, who would dare to tell on her? As I see it, we're all overthinking things. "
Aunt Ru looked like she'd been wrongly accused, while Lady Tang laughed. "Yiru, you should've hurt her a few more times if you knew this would happen."
Lady Tang really didn't like Duanmu Yao and wished she'd be the one to hurt her. At this moment, Long Fei Ye slowly turned to look at her, causing her to shut her mouth resentfully.
"Feiye, you should make a trip there as soon as possible. A long night is fraught with dreams. If Duanmu Yao's injuries worsen and we can't hide the truth, the Tang Clan will be in real trouble, "Aunt Ru coaxed.
Long Fei Ye only pretended not to hear. Cold, he said to Tang Zijin, "This matter doesn't involve my master, so it's not a big problem. There are many matters to attend to in Yaoshui, so I'll take my leave now. "
He's leaving?
"You're really not going to save Duanmu Yao?" Tang Zijin asked in alarm.
"It has nothing to do with you. Hurry up and take care of the Tang Clan's troubles!"
Long Fei Ye's tone was cold and commanding. Everyone present besides Han Yunxi could tell that Long Fei Ye was speaking to Tang Zijin as the East Qin crown prince.
Taking care of the Tang Sect was Tang Zijin's responsibility as the Sect Master. It was also his responsibility as the head of the East Qin Imperial Shadow Guards.
He restrained his emotions and replied to Long Fei Ye, "Don't worry."
Aunt Ru stood on the sidelines, her expression like a storm. Unfortunately, Tang Zijin had no room to speak, much less her.
Still, she knew that things wouldn't end so easily with Duanmu Yao's personality.
Long Fei Ye looked at Han Yunxi and didn't say a word. Instead, he held out his hand.
Han Yunxi's emotions were written all over her face, but she still gave him her hand and rose to her feet.
Just like that, the two of them walked out the door with their fingers interlocked. Chu Xifeng gave a start before chasing after them.
"He … he can't do this!" Aunt Ru muttered next to Tang Zijin. "Think of a way to persuade him. Even if he goes to check on Duanmu Yao's injuries, it'll give us some assurance."
"Aiya, so what if he doesn't go? Don't worry about Feiye taking care of things. If he dares not go, then he must have the capital to back it up. "
Lady Tang relaxed after confirming that the Tang Clan wasn't in danger. She added, "Even if he does go, he should delay it for a few days so Duanmu Yao can suffer more."
Tang Li muttered to himself, "With sister-in-law here, my big brother can't go even if he wants to."
"Mind your own business!" Tang Zijin reprimanded him.
Tang Li gave Lady Tang a look before mother and son quickly slipped away.
Seeing that no one was around, Aunt Ru muttered, "Aren't you going to use this chance to put pressure on Han Yunxi?"
"The situation in the west is still a mess, so don't add to Feiye's troubles! I heard from my subordinates that Feiye is planning to go to Celestial Mountain. We'll see when the time comes. "
Tang Zijin was very cautious and didn't forget to warn Aunt Ru. "Don't act blindly without thinking. You know Feiye's temper too. The more you oppose him, the more he won't listen to you. They've been married for years now, but I don't see any signs of movement in Han Yunxi's stomach. I doubt Feiye sees her as one of his own. "
As a chauvinistic old man like Tang Zijin saw it, if a man truly liked a woman, he'd definitely want her to bear his children.
But from Aunt Ru's perspective, things were different. She said, "Han Yunxi's gotten too many exceptions. Don't you think Feiye's changed?"
As an old woman, Aunt Ru saw it, if a man truly liked a woman, he'd be willing to change for her sake.
"Let's talk about this another time! Send someone to talk to Ning Jing and figure out how to deal with this! " Tang Zijin mused. If Duanmu Yao doesn't dare to make a scene at Celestial Mountain, then I'll have to strike back!
Otherwise, Cang Qiuzi will really think the Tang Clan is easy to bully.
"Done. Ning Jing, that girl, must have a way to deal with things like this," Aunt Ru smiled.
"You don't need to get involved in this matter. Just help prepare for the wedding," Tang Zijin intoned. "Send an invitation to the Duke of Qin's estate as well. Put on a show for Ning Cheng."
By now, Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye had already reached the foot of the mountain. The carriage driver who came to pick them up immediately sensed that something was amiss.
He stood on the side and bowed respectfully. The carriage was very tall, but he hadn't prepared a footrest. Because this was His Highness Duke of Qin's personal carriage, esteemed wangfei was the only woman who could climb up. His Highness Duke of Qin always carried her up without a footrest.
As usual, His Highness Duke of Qin carried esteemed wangfei into the carriage before climbing in himself.
The driver waited for a long time, but His Highness Duke of Qin didn't say where they were going. He couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, are we going back to Yaoshui, or …"
A cold voice came from inside the carriage. "Wait in the distance."
If it weren't for the fact that the two masters' expressions were not good, the coachman would have definitely misunderstood when he heard the words' wait in the distance '.
Although he was very curious, the coachman still walked away.
Inside the carriage …
