Chapter 34 Chapter 34 "When she has had enough fun, I...

The moonlight is dim, and the hot night wind makes people feel more and more depressed.

In a city far away from Yanling, Jiang Daiyi, who had changed her appearance, hid in the dark with Qianxiang, who also had a changed face.

They didn't even dare to stay in the woods outside the city. If they met Yun Qin's men in a secluded place, they would not even have a chance to run away.

At this time, she was hiding in a secluded alley in the city with Qian Xiang, squatting quietly and waiting for Yun Qin's men to leave after searching in vain.

They hid in a city that was slightly more populated, where it would be easier to hide because there were more people around.

It seemed like Yunqin deliberately sent people to play a cat-and-mouse game with Jiang Daiyi. Every time he did it as if he was trying to scare her, neither catching nor not catching her, keeping them frightened all day long.

Jiang Daiyi knew that Yunqin was taking the opportunity to teach her a lesson.

Looking at the half-dead Qian Xiang, Jiang Daiyi grew increasingly angry. She grabbed Qian Xiang's neck and demanded, "Tell me where my relatives are, and I'll take you to Lord Que."

Qian Xiang chuckled, "First, you need to be able to take me away from Yun Qin's pursuit. I won't tell you until we are completely out of danger."

Jiang Daiyi had nothing to say to him, so she threw him aside and left alone.

"Jiang Daiyi, I don't eat onions." Qian Xiang called Jiang Daiyi. He knew that Jiang Daiyi was going to find something to eat.

Jiang Daiyi was startled. She looked around warily at first, then turned back to Leng Ning Qianxiang and whispered, "Shut up if you don't want to die!"

Ignoring him no longer, Jiang Daiyi disappeared into the night.

There was no curfew in the city, so Jiang Daiyi, who had changed her appearance, blended in with the passers-by and was not conspicuous.

Jiang Daiyi walked to a bun shop and stopped, bought a few buns and returned to the alley.

Qian Xiang, who was in the alley just now, had disappeared. Jiang Daiyi's alarm bells rang, wondering if Yun Qin's men had found Qian Xiang.

Jiang Daiyi tentatively called out, "Qian Xiang?"

Someone was approaching from behind, Jiang Daiyi turned around and slashed out with a palm, but Qianxiang moved sideways to block her attack.

He was half dead just now, but now he has the energy to commit suicide.

During the movement, the bun fell from the oil paper to the ground. Jiang Daiyi frowned, withdrew her hand, and went to pick up the bun from the ground.

The moonlight shone on Jiang Daiyi's delicate face. She said nothing, as if she had gotten used to Qian Xiang's illness that could occur at any time.

The buns were already covered in dust, so Qian Xiang naturally wouldn't eat them, and Jiang Daiyi didn't force him.

If she starves to death, please tell her the whereabouts of her relatives first.

Jiang Daiyi sat down against the wall, brushed off the dust on the bun, peeled off the thin layer of dusty skin on the outside, and ate it by herself.

Qian Xiang looked at her and smiled, "Now everyone knows how to peel off the dusty skin."

Jiang Daiyi glanced at him. When she was a child in Tianque, she had to fight for even the rotten buns to eat them, let alone those that were just a little dusty.

In today's world, I'm afraid there are still many people who can't even afford to eat buns.

There were also many people who starved to death.

Jiang Daiyi suddenly thought of Yun Qin. King Xianglin was out of control. If he went crazy, the people of Yan State would definitely be implicated. She didn't know whether Yun Qin could continue to stabilize King Xianglin.

She ran away with Qianxiang, Yunqin must be very angry.

I don't know whether he is busy trying to stabilize King Xianglin or looking for her whereabouts.

Just as Jiang Daiyi guessed.

Yunqin was angry.

In the King's City of Yanling, the Yun family was in chaos.

Under the cover of night, the Yun Mansion was surrounded by King Xianglin's guards. They held torches in their hands, lighting up the surroundings to ensure that not even a bird could fly out.

On one side is the suddenly moody Master Yun Qin, and on the other side is the aggressive Prince Xiang Lin. The people in the Yun Mansion dared not slack off at all and could not sleep at night.

After Madam Yunli finished dealing with Prince Xianglin's men, she went to the study to find Yun Qin.

She pushed the door open and looked at the young man sitting by the window.

The windows are carved with clouds, and Yunqin's shadow is reflected on the light blue gauze.

The moonlight shone through, and he faced the light, his face hidden in the darkness, just like his mood at the moment.

Madam Yunli approached and tried to comfort Yunqin, who seemed calm.

"Aiai may have other difficulties. Although the child looks fine, she is actually more worried than you. There is no need to be so angry. Once she is found, I will punish her lightly."

Yun Qin said calmly, "I'm not angry, aunt."

Madam Yun Li pointed at the sky-high flames outside the mansion and said, "You mobilized the Yun family's private soldiers to search everywhere for Ai Ai's whereabouts. The scale of the campaign was so great that it alarmed Prince Xianglin."

Yun Qin lowered his eyelashes and lit the candle: "Prince Xianglin wants to take my sister as his concubine. I am helping the king find someone."

What a plausible excuse.

"You know that's not what I meant."

Madam Yunli sat opposite him.

"Besides, you're clearly trying to establish your authority by looking for someone. Who are you trying to target?"

Yun Qin said, "Prince Xianglin has been deceived by treacherous officials. If you warn the corrupt officials around the king, the people will have a better life."

Madam Yun Li observed the revealing expression on Yun Qin's face. "You are dealing with the treacherous villains to protect the people, and you also want to take this opportunity to warn Prince Xianglin of the consequences of offending the Yun family. But your current posture is more like a warning to Ai Ai, right?"

The Yun family's influence is spread all over the world. No matter where she runs to, it won't take long for the Yun family to find her.

Yun Qin just let her escape with the assassin, just to take the opportunity to dampen her spirit and teach her a lesson so that she wouldn't dare to act recklessly next time.

The young man said calmly, "That's good. Since she's becoming more and more naughty and reckless, she needs to be taught a lesson."

"Aunt, you should know that even parents who love their children would want to kill them. If they were still alive, they wouldn't let her indulge herself like this."

Madam Yunli said, "It would be counterproductive then. Do you still want to lock her up?"

“Not impossible.”

Yun Qin continued Madam Yun Li's words without hesitation, "When she comes back this time, lock her up. When she truly realizes her mistakes, then release her."

The tone of voice was flat, and no emotion could be detected in it, as if they were discussing something very ordinary.

"Yunqin," Madam Yunli frowned disapprovingly, "she is your sister."

Yun Qin said in a clear and elegant voice: "She deserves to be punished for disobeying her brother. If she had been more well-behaved, she wouldn't have displeased me."

Seeing that he wouldn't listen, Madam Yunli sighed and analyzed the current situation: "It's no secret that a clan like ours has private soldiers, but the commotion you've made this time is too big."

The Yun family was already feared by King Xianglin, so this would obviously let King Xianglin know the true strength of the Yun family. The elders did not want it to be exposed so early.

Yun Qin raised his eyes and slowly looked at Madam Yun Li.

The young man said slowly, "It takes a big noise to make her realize how big a mistake she has made."

Every word he spoke revolved around Yun Yi. He did not take King Xianglin, whose fear had reached its peak, seriously at all. Instead, he was worried that Yun Yi would not admit her mistake.

"Qin'er, are you too harsh on your sister?" Madam Yun Li didn't understand. It seemed that his desire to control Yun'er as a brother was a little too much.

On the contrary, the boy seemed unaware of it.

Yun Qin's expression remained gentle, but his voice suddenly deepened. "She rescued the Tianque assassin and disappeared. When I tried to find her, I was labeled harsh. What should my aunt do?"

“…”

"Aunt, I am her elder brother. You have never had any say in how I should discipline my sister before, and I don't think you will now."

The young man's voice was as slow as broken jade, his eyes were indifferent, and there was a sense of impending storm in them.

Don't say that the servants have been so panicked that they dare not speak these days. Although Madam Yun Li is Yun Qin's elder, she was also affected by his aura at this moment, and was shocked and speechless for a moment.

In the past, Madam Yun Li didn’t care because Yun Qin was just an ordinary person, but now he is really arbitrary and domineering in his treatment of Yun Yi.

Madam Yun Li sighed, "Auntie isn't blaming you... Since you have your own considerations, then you can just discipline her. After all, you've always been the one controlling her."

"However, after all, Ai Ai grew up in Tianque before she was seven years old, so it's inevitable that she has some connections with the people there. These relationships can be slowly severed in the future, and we shouldn't rush into anything."

Yunqin: "Don't worry, aunt. I know what I'm doing."

Since he said so, Madam Yunli naturally would not interfere with his decision anymore, but she still had to discuss another matter with him.

"Prince Xianglin, my aunt intends to stabilize him first. Now is not a good time to get rid of him. Qin'er, why don't you focus on finding Ai Ai and leave the matter of Prince Xianglin to my aunt."

Yun Qin pondered for a moment, then smiled as if realizing what was going on. He knew Madam Yun Li's true intention and asked, "Is this your intention, or your uncle's?"

Madam Yun Li was not surprised that Yun Qin had guessed it, so she tried to smooth things over by saying, "Don't blame your uncle. He was more thoughtful after all."

Yunqin revealed the secret: "My uncle is blaming me for being too radical."

Madam Yunli did not deny it. He was too impatient to admit that he had murderous intentions because of Prince Xianglin's words about taking Yunyi as his concubine.

"Ai Ai is the blood of the Yun family. Finding her is already difficult. Prince Xianglin is violent and cruel. Your uncle will not have the heart to let her suffer in the palace."

Everyone understands the truth.

Yun Qin said nonchalantly, "Uncle will make the final decision on this matter. I will no longer be involved in Prince Xianglin's affairs."

Seeing him give in, Madam Yunli reminded him suspiciously, "You'd better not be perfunctory."

Yun Qin has always been decisive in his actions, and it is his usual style to act first and report later. Who knows whether he will agree verbally and then take action secretly and silently.

"Since my uncle wants to take over the hot potato of Prince Xianglin, I am naturally happy to see it. Aunt is worrying too much."

Over the years, Yun Qin has tried every possible way, both overtly and covertly, to restrain King Xianglin indirectly, so that King Xianglin's brutal methods do not affect the people, while at the same time preventing King Xianglin from resisting. It goes without saying how frustrated he is.

Since his uncle was asking for trouble, there was really no need for him to keep harping on him.

Seeing that Yun Qin really didn't seem to bother with Prince Xianglin anymore, Madam Yun Li breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. I'll take care of Prince Xianglin's people. You can rest early."

Yun Qin nodded: "Okay."

The candlelight flickered, swaying Yunqin's eyebrows.

After Madam Yun Li left, the secret guards appeared.

Yun Qin said calmly, "What's going on?"

He reported Jiang Daiyi's recent situation to Yunqin: "The girl seems to want to take Qianxiang back to Tianque."

"Keep sending people to wear them down, slowly."

It wore out her patience.

After he came back, he thought about it for a long time and felt that it would be interesting to let his disobedient sister come back and apologize to him on her own initiative.

Yun Qin was inattentive, with a hint of anger in his careless eyes. "When she's had enough fun, I'll deal with her."
