Editor: Atlas Studios
Ling Yin said with a troubled expression, “Palace Lord, we don’t have any ships left. Young Palace Lord took them away.”
Yun Shuang remembered that there was indeed such a thing and instantly hesitated.
This was all Xiahou Yi’s fault. He didn’t want to be the second grandpa of the City Lord Manor and insisted on going against Ling Yun and Wei Xu. He lost the ships of the City Lord Manor.
As the Island Master of Thousand Mountain Island, Ling Yun had to show off when visiting the Great Zhou and Western Jin.
Therefore, he used the Hundred Flower Palace’s ships.
“Do you want the boat?”
Ling Yin asked weakly.
Yun Shuang said, “What do you think?”
Ling Yin whispered, “No.”
The wind and waves on the sea were strong, and the small boat could not withstand too many bumps.
Moreover, Wei Xiaobao was so young. Wouldn’t Yun Shuang’s heart ache to let her sit in a small boat and bask in the sun and rain?
Yun Shuang hugged the glutinous ball in her arms and was filled with worry.
Suddenly, she glanced around and looked at a big ship that was about to go out to sea. “Whose ship is that? It seems to be going out to sea…”
Ling Yin looked at it carefully and muttered, “It looks a little familiar…”
“An acquaintance? That’s good!”
Yun Shuang carried Wei Xiaobao and used her qinggong to fly towards the big ship not far away.
It was too late for Ling Yin to stop her.
Ling Yin held her forehead with a complicated expression. “He’s indeed an acquaintance… but… he’s not as familiar as you think, Palace Lord…”
Yun Shuang landed steadily on the deck.
It was impossible to tell which sect these people were from.
Yun Shuang decided to greet them first before asking if she could borrow the boat.
Unexpectedly, the people on the ship were extremely vigilant. Before she could speak, they raised their killing moves and attacked her.
Yun Shuang did not want to hurt anyone, but she could not withstand this group of people’s fierce attacks. All of them pounced forward without caring about their lives.
In order not to let them accidentally hurt Wei Xiaobao, Yun Shuang could only be a little ruthless.
After beating up seven or eight disciples in one go, a sharp sword qi slashed through the air.
Finally, there was someone who was pleasing to the eye… Yun Shuang raised her wrist slightly and easily caught the other party’s sword with two fingers.
The other party looked at her side profile and was suddenly stunned. “Palace Lord Yun?”
This voice… Yun Shuang turned around. “It’s you?”
She let go.
Qi Yao turned the hilt of his sword and pointed the blade down. He cupped his hands and bowed. “Greetings, Palace Lord Yun.”
Yun Shuang sized him up and looked around. “Is it your Assassin Alliance’s ship?”
Qi Yao paused and said truthfully, “Yes.”
Yun Shuang asked suspiciously, “Why are you dressed as ordinary businessmen?”
If they were wearing the clothes of the Assassin Alliance and revealed the canvas emblem of the Assassin Alliance, she would have recognized them.
Qi Yao did not answer. Instead, he cleverly changed the topic. “May I ask why Palace Lord Yun suddenly boarded the ship?”
Yun Shuang said, “I’m going out to sea. I want to borrow your ship.”
Qi Yao looked at Wei Xiaobao in her arms.
Wei Xiaobao was eating hand food.
Perhaps sensing his gaze, Wei Xiaobao stopped and looked at him cutely. “Wuwa.”
A trace of gentleness flashed across Qi Yao’s eyes.
He said, “I’m afraid I can’t make the decision on this.”
Yun Shuang asked, “Who can make the decision?”
Qi Yao said, “Master.”
–
Jiang Guanchao was reading the secret letters that his disciples had gathered from all over the place.
Qi Yao entered and told him about Yun Shuang borrowing a boat.
“Yun Shuang is leaving the island?”
Jiang Guanchao was a little surprised.
Qi Yao looked at his master in confusion. Could it be that Palace Lord Yun could not leave the island?
Back then, Jiang Guanchao had heard that the old island master had forced Yun Shuang to swear an oath.
If not for this, Yun Shuang would have personally gone to catch Yun Lin when he left five years ago.
Jiang Guanchao asked, “Where is she going?”
Qi Yao replied, “The Great Zhou.”
Jiang Guanchao said, “We won’t head to the Great Zhou.”
Qi Yao said, “I’ve told Palace Lord Yun. Palace Lord Yun said that we only need to send her to an island where she can hire a large ship.”
Jiang Guanchao thought for a moment and said, “Arrange a good room for her. Separate it from the disciples and treat her politely.”
Previously, it was Yun Shuang who pulled him and Wei Xu back from the sea. He, Jiang Guanchao, was a person who would take revenge and return the favor when the occasion called for it.
Qi Yao did not move.
Jiang Guanchao asked, “Is there anything else?”
Qi Yao said, “There’s no better room.”
The Assassin Alliance was a group of cold-blooded killers, unlike the disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace who knew how to enjoy themselves. The rooms on the ship were simpler and cruder, and the most presentable was Jiang Guanchao’s room.
It was quiet, spacious, and bright. It was also separated from the disciples and would not be easily disturbed.
Half an hour later, Qi Yao brought Yun Shuang and Wei Xiaobao to the large room that had been cleaned up.
The mattress and blanket had been changed. They were all clean.
Jiang Guanchao moved into Qi Yao’s room.
Qi Yao slept on the floor miserably.
–
Great Zhou.
The Old Marquis had just left the court.
Qin Canglan was not around, and Wei Xu was not around. He was extremely unwilling to be forced to attend court.
“Master, are we going to the military camp?”
The coachman asked.
As the Old Marquis got into the carriage, he said, “I’m not going today. I’m going back to the residence.”
After a pause, he lifted the curtain and asked the coachman, “Where’s the heir?”
The coachman said, “The heir is still in the Ministry of War. I didn’t see him come out.”
The Old Marquis frowned and said, “You’re muddle-headed! What day is it today? Isn’t it worth it? Go and call him! Tell him to quickly get lost and return to the mansion!”
The coachman took the token and hurriedly went to the Ministry of War to look for Su Yuan.
At the Marquis of Zhenbei’s Estate, Matriarch Su was choosing a gift for her daughter-in-law in the room.
“Is that all?”
Matriarch Su was not satisfied.
The maidservant looked at the table full of makeup boxes and said, “The most fashionable jewelry in the capital this year is all here.”
“Sigh.” Matriarch Su sighed. “It’s not good at all. I don’t even like it. Why would Jingjing like it?”
Jingjing was Madam Tao’s nickname.
Today was Madam Tao’s birthday. In the past, other than Su Xuan, who often recuperated at her maternal family, her other sons had accompanied her.
This year, all three sons were out.
Although Madam Tao didn’t say it, she had already started to miss them.
Su Mo was nurtured as the heir of the family. He was destined to grow in the flames of war.
Regarding his departure, no matter how worried and reluctant Madam Tao was, she could only endure it.
Fifth Brother was a naughty monkey. He ran out every day, but in the past, he would come back after playing enough. This time, he followed the eldest to fight a war.
As for Old Fourth…
It was fine to lie once or twice, but if there were too many, even Matriarch Su could tell that he was not going to Wutong Academy to study.
How could Madam Tao not suspect anything?
Matriarch Su sighed and pointed at the jewelry on the table. “Put them all away. Let me see Xiaobao’s clothes.”
Counting the days, Xiaobao should be half a year old. Was she fat or thin, were her clothes big or small…
On the other side, Madam Tao held the half-made clothes in a daze.
The maidservant called her a few times to remind her that she had taken the wrong needle and thread. She suddenly did not notice.
Her dejected appearance made the maidservants’ hearts ache.
Suddenly, the unlatched door was kicked open.
A tanned young man grinned and revealed his white teeth. He pounced over excitedly.
“Mother! I’m back!”
