Rejected by the Crown Prince and deemed unmarriageable, the ugly woman was forced by the imperial family to marry the Regent Prince, the Emperor's uncle.
The Regent Prince was plagued by ...
Chapter 204 It’s fun on the mountain!
Yun Qingqing listened to the wolf howling all over the mountain, and the corners of her mouth twitched:
"Don't worry, it's still unclear who is in danger, but it's definitely not your daughter."
Seeing that she was not in a hurry at all, Su Anrong felt inexplicably relieved, but vague suspicions arose in his mind. His expression gradually became complicated, and then gradually became firm.
Yan Haochu stood beside her and whispered to comfort her:
"The master said that Nannan is blessed with a long life, and nothing will happen to her."
"Well, thank you." Su Anrong nodded gratefully and stopped talking.
The group waited for a while, and Yan Haochu suddenly whispered:
"Are those wolf howls... getting closer?"
When Su Anrong heard this, it was true. She became more and more nervous and subconsciously grabbed Yun Qingqing's sleeve.
Yun Qingqing patted her hands to reassure her, then turned around and said:
"Southern Expedition."
"I'm here!"
"Sieve up this exit and prepare to catch the turtle in the jar."
"Yes, sir!" Nan Zheng did as he was told without a doubt and went to guard the exit with dozens of plainclothes guards from the palace.
After a while, there were sounds of chaotic footsteps and panting sounds as if people were fleeing from the mountain.
Nan Zheng listened attentively, frowned slightly and said:
"This is not a beast, it's a human!"
Su Anrong tightly grasped the corner of her sleeve and said anxiously:
"My daughter is still in their hands, don't hurt her!"
Yun Qingqing said:
"She is not in the hands of these people. Go south and capture them all. Don't let any one go! Don't worry about anything else except the people!"
“…Yes, sir!” Nan Zheng didn’t quite understand the second half of the sentence, but he was used to whatever the princess said, so he agreed without further ado.
As they were talking, figures appeared on the mountain road. They were scrambling to run down the mountain as if they were being chased by something. There were more than a dozen of them, all men.
When these people were almost at the foot of the mountain, they suddenly saw Nan Zheng and others on horseback blocking the exit. They still refused to stop and shouted:
"The wolves are coming! Run away!"
"Get out of the way, or you won't be able to run away!"
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! There's a wolf!"
Nan Zheng raised his eyebrows, completely understanding the princess's instructions, and waved his hand with a sneer:
"Capture all these people!"
The guards behind him immediately drew their swords and rushed forward. Even if those people reacted quickly, they could not defeat the well-trained guards of the palace. Soon, they were all taken in front of Yun Qingqing.
"Who are you? Why are you arresting us?!"
"Let me go! Didn't you hear me? There are wolves behind us!"
"Someone has been killed by a wolf! If we don't run away quickly, we'll all die here!"
"There are hundreds of wolves! You guys are not enough to deliver them!"
Su Anrong couldn't keep quiet after listening to what these people said. He rushed forward, grabbed the person in front and said in a sharp voice:
"Where is my daughter? You damned human traffickers, you were just trying to escape and leave such a young child in the mountains!"
"Give my daughter back to me! Otherwise I will kill you!"
The man was startled by her and looked angry, but he was held down by the guards and had no power to fight back. After hearing what she said, his expression suddenly changed:
"You said that the kid who just learned to walk is your daughter?"
Su Anrong looked fierce and grabbed his collar tightly:
"Yes! Where is she? Where did you leave her? Tell me!"
The trafficker struggled and yelled:
"Who the hell knows where that cub is! It's all because of her that our boss and his brothers turned against each other and killed each other. She also attracted this wolf pack! Let me go, go find it yourself in the mountains!"
Su Anrong staggered, let go of his hand and was about to rush up the mountain.
"Don't be afraid, my daughter. Mother is here to find you!"
Yan Haochu grabbed her and dragged her back to Yun Qingqing:
"Don't run around, I'm going to find someone!"
As he said this, he picked up his knife and walked up the mountain, but he stopped after just two steps and looked vigilantly into the depths of the mountain road.
I saw many half-human-high shadows appearing from that direction, and dozens of pairs of green eyes!
The wolves appeared!
The traffickers were so scared that they kept screaming:
"Now you should believe it! The wolves are coming!"
"Let us go! You still have time to escape!"
"Please be kind and let us go!"
However, Nan Zheng did not receive Yun Qingqing's order and remained unmoved.
Although the palace guards looked solemn, they did not flinch and drew their swords to stand guard.
The trafficker who was being questioned saw the wolves approaching quickly, and his mentality collapsed. He screamed:
"See? There are so many wolves! They have eaten all the little cubs' bones. Let me go... ugh!"
Nan Zheng kicked him in the face, breaking his nose and front teeth.
Su Anrong's eyes went dark, and she almost passed out. Yun Qingqing grabbed her and a clear voice rang in her ears:
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Look carefully. Who is that person behind him?"
She felt Yun Qingqing patting her back gently, and a warm current seemed to spread throughout her body, helping her to calm her mind.
Su Anrong then perked up and tried to look towards the wolf pack.
The wolves all stopped in unison about ten feet away, and moved to the sides as if they had received some order, making way.
A huge wolf walked out from the road step by step, with a small baby sitting on its back.
The doll was wearing a small pink cape, with one hand firmly grasping the thick fur on the wolf's head, and the other hand holding a huge chicken leg in its mouth.
As if it had not expected to see such a scene at the end of the mountain road, the baby stopped chewing the chicken leg halfway, and a pair of big eyes like black grapes on its pink little face were wide open, staring at me blankly.
"Nannan!!!" Su Anrong didn't know whether she was happy or scared, she shouted excitedly, broke free from Yun Qingqing's hand and rushed over.
This time Yun Qingqing didn't stop her and let her go.
Yan Haochu, who had been stunned for a long time, was awakened by her voice, and chased after her with a knife in hand to prevent any accidents from happening.
The little kid finally came to his senses and buried his face in the thick hair on the back of the wolf's neck.
The wolf leader actually bent down obediently, letting the little baby slide down his side, then turned around and walked away without looking back.
In a moment, the wolves disappeared into the dense forest.
The baby rubbed his little hands on his body, raised his little face with an innocent smile, opened his arms and ran towards Su Anrong.
"Ryo-ki~!"
Su Anrong rushed over and hugged her in her arms, crying and laughing:
"Nannan, you're okay! I scared you to death, you know that! Don't run around anymore, you hear me..."
The doll nodded and rubbed obediently:
"Don't be afraid, Liangqin~, it's fun on the mountain!"
After being shocked, Yan Haochu finally breathed a sigh of relief, put away the knife, and quietly comforted the mother and daughter. The scene was very harmonious.
Only Yun Qingqing noticed that the little kid, who looked only two years old, rubbed against the wolf's back for a moment, and when he looked up again, the big chicken leg in his hand had disappeared without a trace.
All that was left was the greasy stains on his face that were trying to be covered up, all rubbed onto Su Anrong's lapel.
And there was the hasty footsteps of the leader wolf, who seemed relieved and wished he could disappear immediately.
She rubbed her forehead with a complicated expression.
No wonder when I first met Su Anrong, I found that she had a causal relationship with me, but I didn't understand why.
No wonder when I saw her again, I found that the luck she was carrying was so special and vaguely familiar.
No wonder the results of my secret divinations about this doll with a strange origin were always confusing.
She had guessed it a long time ago, and now the case has finally been solved.
Su Anrong came over holding the baby and thanked Yun Qingqing:
"Master Qingyun, I am grateful to you again today. I will never forget it!"
"Nannan, come and thank your benefactor!"
The little kid kept his big eyes on Yun Qingqing all the way over.
At this moment, under her gaze, the delicate little face suddenly deflated, and under the gaze of everyone, he pounced over and hugged Yun Qingqing's thighs at lightning speed.
He burst into tears!
