Father, Mother Escaped Again

Chapter 191

Xia Yuqing’s sudden loud scream stunned the birds in the mountains and forests to flee in all directions as if they had been frightened. They also let out harsh screams, awakening the people who were still preparing for lunch.

Yun Zhongyue and the others raised their heads and looked at the source of the sound in surprise, while Feng Tingye quickly disappeared in front of everyone the moment he heard the shout.

“Let’s go over and take a look.” Yun Xi and the others paused and hurriedly followed. There was no opportunity for Yun Zhongyue to hold them back at all.

“Uuuuu... you perverted old man...” Xia Yuqing directly grabbed Big Baby on one side as a weapon, and threw him into the face of the strange old man.

“!” Big baby was caught off guard. He was caught by his unscrupulous mother and used as a sandbag. He was shocked. Fortunately, his reaction ability was the same as that of his father’s. He reacted the moment he was picked up. Thus, he kicked the wretched old man’s face. At this point, Big Baby couldn’t help but feel a little grateful that his unscrupulous mother hadn’t turned his head towards the old man, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to stretch out that far.

“Oh...” The old man being suddenly thrown a human shape that slapped his face caused him to step back a few steps while covering his face. He snorted, “Little girl, didn’t I just touch your chest? Why do you have to be so upset? This old man’s posterior molars are going to fall out, oh...”

“You, you...” Xia Yuqing pointed at the innocent perverted old man with red eyes, not knowing whether she was angry or ashamed.

Feng Tingye saw this scene when he arrived. His eyes were slightly cold. He stepped forward and took Xia Yuqing into his arms. He asked softly: “What’s going on?”

“He, he, he...” As soon as Xia Yu Qing saw Feng Tingye coming, she seemed to have seen her savior. She angrily pointed at the strange old man who had attacked her, she was so angry that she couldn’t say anything.

“Father, Father, it’s him! That strange old man just touched Mother’s chest and said he disliked the small breasts of our Mother!” Second Baby recovered from the initial surprise. Holding her own father’s thigh, she started to tattletale. Hmph, she had wanted to greet that old grandfather just now too, but she didn’t expect that old grandfather would actually bully her Mother. What a baddy!

“...” Baby, don’t say the last sentence! Xia Yuqing secretly covered her face, her face reddening. This time it was not because of anger. It was because of the shame that her children saw that she had been taken advantage of by someone. Why does it have to be so sad?!

“Touched you?” Feng Tingye’s eyes chilled. His sharp, knife-like gaze cut towards the old man who was still covering his nose, “Is it him?”

The old man covered half of his face so Feng Tingye couldn’t see him clearly. Meeting Feng Tingye’s gaze, the old man had a secret voice in his mind: Good god, why does this boy look even more terrifying than that Yun boy? This aura...

“Young man, don’t be impulsive, don’t be impulsive. Didn’t I just touch this girl? I’m an old man, your elder.”

“...” Strange old man, when you touched me just now, did you consider that you were an elder!??

“Do I look like such an impulsive person?” Feng Tingye raised a very bright smile at the strange old man, hiding a knife in his vivid smile. This made not only the strange old man feel a sense of chill in the forest during the daytime, but even those who rushed there, instinctively felt a trace of unusual danger.

“...” It’s over, the Ultra Seme Lord is very angry, and the consequences are serious. This is really going to be fatal!

Xia Yuqing shivered abruptly when she looked at the smile on Feng Tingye’s face that was brighter than usual. Just when she wanted to say something, Feng Tingye pushed her and the children behind him and said coldly: ” Take care of them.”

Afterwards, under the full view of everyone, he drew out a long sword that had always been hidden around his waist. He rushed at the strange old man with a murderous look.

“What’s the matter?” Shao Zitang looked at Feng Tingye’s murderous intent with a look of surprise. What did this old man do to Xia Yuqing, that girl? It is rare that Feng Tingye would be so angry. The only time the Longyuan sword came out was that time Xia Yuqing was kidnapped to Ying Chun Yuan...

“That strange old man touched our mother’s chest.” Big Baby took his sister’s little hand and betrayed Xia Yuqing without morals.

“...” The few people were silent for a second, then burst out into a horrified roar, “What?”

“Moreover, the old man disliked the small breast of Mother’s after touching it.” Second Baby seemed to think of something. Then, she looked at the Eldest Baby in confusion: “Brother, what is a breast?”

The eldest choked and touched Second Baby’s head, “Little children, shouldn’t ask so much.”

“...” Don’t say it like you aren’t a kid.

“...Oh.” Second Baby nodded as if she didn’t understand, but didn’t ask any more.

“...” Xia Yuqing looked at the appearance of the two buns talking in harmony. She silently hid her face. Once again... it hurts! How could I give birth to these two buns who would dig my own corners! Now, not only does the Ultra Seme Lord know that she has been touched, but they also...Ahhh, my image of being an icy, clean jade, full of integrity, is all broken to the ground. Is there anything left? ! The small person in Xia Yuqing’s heart had already begun to scratch the walls.

After listening to the revelations of the two little buns, the crowd petrified for a few seconds. They looked at Feng Tingye not far away with mixed expressions.

Shao Zitang looked at Feng Tingye’s ferocious appearance of wishing to smash someone into pieces, and secretly twitched his mouth. Although he knew any man would be upset that his wife was molested, he didn’t have to be so angry that he would pull out his Longyuan sword! If the previous Emperor knew that Long Yuan sword, which was handed down by him, was used by his son to beat up the person who molested his daughter-in-law, he would jump out of the grave with anger.

However, at this time, whether the previous Emperor would be angry or not, was something Feng Tingye didn’t know. Feng Tingye only knew that he was angry. This old man in front of him dared to touch things that belonged to him in front of him?

The rainbow long sword slashed cleanly. The old man’s eyes tightened. He grabbed the fishing rod on the side and flicked it against the tree on the side. The long fishing line seemed to be equipped with a propeller. It was accurate as it wrapped around the trunk of the big tree. Then with a flick, the fishing rod pulled the old man to the tree easily. It was comparable to a flying rope.

“F*ck!” Isn’t this high-tech climbing rope that special agents in movies have? How come this old man has such advanced things? Could it be that he also transmigrated? D*mn, this world is really going to be poked through like a sieve!

“Huh?” Compared to Xia Yuqing’s shock, or fright, Yun Zhongyue appeared suspicious. He stared at that extraordinary fishing rod, there was a deep thought in his eyes.

The people on the side were also stunned by this change. After finally coming back, the ones guarding the girls became more vigilant.

Feng Tingye looked at the old man who had slipped away from his sword. His eyebrows were slightly raised, and his slender phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously. When his wrist turned, the shattered sword shadow turned into a streamer. Swish. It turned around and stabbed at the tree where the old man was.

“Come on! Young man, this old man is just a pack of bones, I can’t be tormented by you like this. Why do you not understand the basics of respecting the elderly?” The old man saw that Feng Tingye wasn’t planning on letting him go, and was anxious behind the tree trunk.

“...” Old man? Just now, you just swished over there and when you touched me earlier, weren’t you super agile? How can we think that you are still a pack of old bones!? Also, the sword is coming, if you don’t hide quickly and just stand there, jumping on your feet, do you believe you won’t be pierced on the spot?

“Could it be...” As soon as Yun Zhongyue heard the strange old man’s voice, his eyes lit up. He hurriedly shouted, “Stop!”

Feng Tingye heard Yun Zhongyue’s exclamation and his actions paused, sweeping past the old man’s side.

When the strange old man heard the voice of Yun Zhongyue, he immediately gasped and asked, “Why is that kid here?”

Before he could think deeply, he covered his face. Raising his hand, he threw a thunderball from his sleeve (reference to 007), and threw it to the center of the crowd.

In an instant, the sparkling lights of a firework burst out from the center of the crowd. It dazzled and almost blinded everyone’s eyes.

Xia Yuqing exclaimed and stretched out her hand to cover the eyes of the two children, while she turned her face away. In the next second, she found that her head was pressed into a familiar and warm embrace. It was Feng Tingye who burst towards them quickly and hugged them into his arms in one fell swoop.

“Cough cough cough, why is there so much smoke?” Yun Xi and Yan Tingfang on one side were also guarded behind by the others just before the explosion. They came back to their senses and waved the smoke in front of them away. They were shocked by the explosion and coughed vigorously.

“Hey, where’s that weird old man?” Xia Yuqing poked her head out of Feng Tingye’s arms and asked suspiciously while looking around.

When other people heard her questioning, they looked back at the tree trunk where the old man was at. They found that there was an empty space above the tree trunk, and there was no person at all.

“... ran away?”

Shao Zitang and Yun Zhong Yue took a step forward. Reaching out, they brushed the remaining ashes on the ground due to the explosion. He brought his finger under the tip of his nose and sniffed: “Not too much sulfur was used in this. It seems that the old man just wanted to use the explosion to attract our attention and escape. He didn’t want to hurt us.”

Feng Tingye nodded, his face sinking. He turned his head and looked at Yun Zhongyue, “Why did you stop Zhen just now?”

Yun Zhongyue was about to let out a sigh of relief, when Feng Tingye faced him with a cold appearance. The smile on Yun Zhongyue’s face stiffened. He said with a smile: “Well, you may soon see.”

The few people glanced at each other, and their gazes at Yun Zhongyue were a little confused. Although Feng Tingye was still a bit angry, his eyes flickered slightly because of Yun Zhongyue’s words. He didn’t ask any more questions.

Because of this unexpected little accident, Xia Yuqing and the others’ plans of harvesting local resources to have a full meal fell through. After the group ate some dry rations they brought out, they set off to go up the mountain again.

As Yun Zhongyue said, Xiangyun Mountain has steep terrain and intricate mountain roads. Unless someone who is familiar with the mountain roads led the way, the group of people would probably require numerous laps in this mountain to find their destination.

When Xia Yuqing reached the top of the mountain, it was almost evening. As the night was about to envelop the earth, she could finally see the smoke rising from not far away.

The extremely exhausted Xia Yuqing’s eyes lit up like searchlights. She exclaimed: “We’re here, we’re finally here!”

Yun Zhongyue heard these words and let out a sigh of relief. It was good to find the spot before nightfall. If they encountered some wild beasts in the forest, even though their martial arts are quite strong, because they are bringing women and children with them, it would affect their chances of winning if they really were dragged into a fight.

“Yeah, after we bypass this hole, we will arrive. Then I will be able to see Xue Jiejie and Ying Jiejie.” Yun Xi stared at the place where the smoke was rising and shouted.

“Xue Jiejie and Ying Jiejie?” Xia Yuqing asked with some confusion.

“Xue Jiejie and Ying Jiejie mentioned by Xiao Xi are the two twin granddaughters of Old Jin.” Yun Zhong Yue explained aloud, holding a dog’s tail grass picked up on the side of the road.

“Huh? Twin granddaughters? That old Jin got married and had children, and his granddaughters are that old?” Xia Yuqing exclaimed in surprise. Didn’t he say that Old Jin was an old man about the same age as her master? Her Senior Brother hasn’t married yet, but Old Man Jin has a granddaughter? Although my master did get married a bit late and my Senior Brother is now reduced to an older leftover man (late for marriage), the difference shouldn’t be that big, right? !

“No, the two sisters Yuxue and Yuying are not actual granddaughters of Jin Lao. They were... picked up on the road by Jin Lao...”

“...” He picked up a pair of twins? This old man’s RP (moral standing) is quite extraordinary.

“Huh, yes, yes, Xue Jiejie and Ying Jiejie are not born from that old man. Ying Jiejie is virtuous and gentle, Xue Jiejie is bold and generous, they are not like that old man who is lazy and p*rverted.” Yun Xi said angrily.

“...” Xia Yuqing looked at Yun Xi with an awkward look. In her heart, she was wondering what kind of evil act did this Senior Jin play against the smaller version of Xiao Xi, so that such a child would be like this, such that as long as he was mentioned, she would still hate him so much.

“That p*rverted old man has rarely left the mountain since the conflict with Royal Father and seldom enters the palace. He basically stays on this mountain to study alchemy. However, he does regularly send people to the palace to Father and Mother to update them about his recent developments, and would also send some gadgets he made. The people he calls to run errands are the two Jiejies. Most of the time it’s Ying Jiejie, but sometimes if Ying Jiejie wants to help the old man do something, Xue Jiejie will send it over.”

As soon as Yun Xi finished speaking, Yun Zhongyue smiled: “After so many years, Jin Lao’s temperament has not changed at all. It is because Jin Lao often let Yu Xue and Yuying send things to the palace, Xiao Xi has become familiar with them.”

“It turns out to be like that. Since Old Jin seems like an acquaintance, then us coming here this time to invite the old man to come out should allow us to have twice the result with half the effort.” Shao Zitang said in a low voice.

“En, let’s go, it’s getting dark soon.” Feng Tingye’s gaze kept falling on Yun Zhongyue’s body, a little inquisitive.

Having a goal in sight, the group of people’s spirits were lifted. They quickly bypassed the hole and rushed towards the destination. Finally they arrived at the elegant and spacious bamboo house located in the back of the mountain when the sun was condensing into the last ray of light.

“Ying Jiejie, Xue Jiejie, I came to see you!” Yun Xi shouted happily as soon as she rushed into the bamboo house.

Xia Yuqing and the others walked in, and saw a thin figure coming out of the bamboo house. Seeing Yun Xi, they were also stunned for a moment, then said in surprise: “Your Royal Highness, why are you here?”

“Ying Jiejie!” Yun Xi rushed into Yuying’s arms, “Ying Jiejie, I missed you so much!”

“Your Royal Highness...” Although Yuying was surprised, she smiled and reached out to touch Yunxi’s hair. That gentle and loving look was like one looking at their own little sister, “Well, I also missed Your Royal Highness.”

Yuying looked at Yunxi for a long time, then raised her head to look at Xia Yuqing and the rest. She was taken aback for a moment. Her eyes drifted slightly, then it fell on Yun Zhongyue’s body: “The Sixth Prince is also here. These people are... ...”

Yun Xi, who hugged Yuying tightly, remembered the people behind her, and stood up: “Ying Jiejie, this is Qing Jiejie and Qing Jiejie’s two children I have mentioned to you. This is Qing Jiejie’s husband, the emperor of Ye country. The one next to them is the Shang Shu Daren of Ye Kingdom.”

Feng Tingye nodded towards Yuying and Yuying also nodded at them with a calm expression, polite but distant.

Upon seeing this, Feng Tingye and Shao Zitang looked at each other. It is not simple for a person to be so calm after learning their identity.

“And here this...”

When He Wenzhong was introduced, Yun Xi paused, her face flushed slightly. Yuying looked strange for a while. She turned her head to look at Yun Zhongyue with some curiosity.

Yun Zhongyue jokingly laughed, “Xiao Xi is shy? Hahaha, Yuying, this is General He Wenzhong from Ye Country, he is the sweetheart of Xiao Xi. The one my Royal Brother detests so much.”

Yuying’s originally calm face finally showed some astonishment. She looked up and down He Wenzhong’s body for a long time.

He Wenzhong greeted Yuying’s inquiring gaze, and embarrassedly scratched the back of his head and said: “Hello Miss Yuying, I...I am Xiao Xi’s...”

Yuying looked at He Wenzhong look at someone beside her from time to time, then seeing Yun Xi’s face flush, she gave a rare smile, “I understand, I understand.”

Seeing Yun Xi’s embarrassment and wanting to dig a hole in the ground and bury herself, Yun Zhongyue was in a good mood. He took a step forward and pointed at Yan Tingfang, “Yuying, do you remember this person?”

“You are?” Yuying raised her head and glanced at Yan Tingfang, her eyebrows frowned. “She looks familiar, but I can’t remember.”

“Her surname is Yan.”

Yun Zhongyue’s timely reminder made Yuying’s mind flash. She pointed to Yan Tingfang and exclaimed: “You are the daughter of Prime Minister Yan.”

“Miss Yuying.” Yan Tingfang nodded towards Yuying, which was regarded as an acknowledgment.

“Didn’t you already...”

“Yuying Jiejie, you also knew?” Yun Xi didn’t care about being shy, and stared at Yuying with wide-open eyes. How could everyone know and only she was kept in the dark?

Yuying looked at her surprised appearance and sighed lightly: “Your Royal Highness was only ten years old at the time. The relationship between Your Royal Highness and Miss Yan was so good, the Empress didn’t tell you because she was worried that Your Royal Highness would be sad.”

“But, even so, Mother can’t...”

Yun Xi was about to complain, but was interrupted by Yuying again: “The most important thing is, with Your Highness’s temperament, if you knew about Miss Yan, you would definitely have a conflict with the emperor. It would cause a rift between Your Royal Highness and the emperor, and allow some unscrupulous people to take advantage of it...This is not what we want to see.”

“...” Yun Xi bit her lips and fell silent. She knew Yuying was right. If she knew this from the beginning, she would have definitely gone to the emperor to cry and complain. She would shoot her mouth off and even if the emperor loved her, if she caused enough of an uproar, it would cause some hostility between the father and daughter duo.

Feng Tingye and the others quietly watched Yuying persuade Yun Xi. The more they saw, the more they thought that the girl was not simple. In just a few simple words, she was able to calm Yun Xi’s dissatisfaction, and the words were spoken with a faint sense of vicissitude. She did not appear as if she was living in the mountains for a long time and had not seen many things in the current world.

Seeing that Yun Xi was no longer entangled in this, Yuying turned to look at Yan Tingfang and asked, “How did Miss Yan escape back then?”

Yan Tingfang pursed her lips and replied, “I was chased and had a narrow escape. It was all thanks to the Empress. She rescued me and Ruixia at a critical juncture and saved our lives.”

“It turned out to be the Empress. I haven’t heard from Miss Yan for so many years. It seems that the Empress has buried the matter very deeply. I’m afraid not even the people around her had been told about it.”

“Well, in order to protect us two, the Empress thought the less who people knew about the matter, the better. She not only told us not to mention it to others easily, but the Empress herself basically kept herself from talking to others. This time, if it weren’t for...I wouldn’t have shown up in front of Her Royal Highness.”

Yuying nodded thoughtfully. She looked around at the few people, and smiled again: “Forget your Royal Highness, Miss Yan and Sixth Prince, how can you be with the people of Ye Kingdom and come to Shu Kingdom?”

Although Yuying’s face had a gentle smile, Feng Tingye and the others felt an obvious probing in her eyes. They once again sighed in their hearts about this person’s deep hidden nature.

Yan Tingfang looked at the few people inquiringly, wondering whether she should tell the matter to the person in front of her.

At this time, Yun Zhongyue smiled. He stepped forward, “It’s okay. Although Miss Yuying has lived in the mountains for a long time, her character and temperament are trustworthy. This is a bit complicated to say, but the queen of Ye Kingdom, that is, Xiao Xi’s Qing Jiejie is actually my Junior Sister. The reason why Yan Tingfang and I have come here with them is because...”

Yun Zhongyue simply explained their reason for why they came here. After Yuying listened quietly, she was silent again.

After a while, she said: “You mean, all of this is the tricks of the Eldest Princess. The reason why you came to find grandfather is because the emperor and the empress are now imprisoned by the Eldest Princess? So you hope that grandfather can come and help you?”

“Ah, Ying Jiejie, do you think that p*rverted old man will promise to help? ” Yun Xi was a little nervous when she pulled Yuying’s hand and asked.

Yuying groaned: “This is hard to say. It depends on grandpa’s thoughts, but I will help you persuade him. It is late now, grandpa should be resting in the backyard. I will take you to see him first.”

Feng Tingye cast a look at Shao Zitang, then he stretched out his hand to hold Xia Yuqing’s hand: “I will have to trouble Miss Yuying.”

Yuying smiled and led a group of people toward the inner courtyard.

As Yun Xi walked, she seemed to have discovered something and pulled Yuying’s sleeves: “Ying Jiejie, what about Xue Jiejie? Why didn’t I see her?”

“Oh, you mean Xue Er? She went down the mountain early this morning. She should be back soon.”

“Oh.”

“We’ve arrived. It’s right there.” Yuying led a few people to a bamboo house, reached out and knocked on the bamboo door. She whispered. “Grandpa, can I come in?”

There was a messy noise in the room. After a while, everyone heard a familiar voice from the bamboo house: “What’s the matter? Come in.”

Having received the response, Yuying raised her hand and pushed open the bamboo door.

The bright candle’s shadow swayed in the bamboo house, reflecting the leisurely figure on the rocking chair in the middle. It was an old man who was gray-haired but still in good spirits. The old man was holding a small mechanism beast in one hand, while touching his gray beard with the other. As if he noticed the gaze projected from the door, he turned his head and looked around to face the big round eyes of Xia Yuqing.

Xia Yuqing stared at the old man who turned his head in astonishment. She took a deep breath, and exclaimed: “It’s you! The old man who attacked me by the river!”

“......”
