A modern worker with consistently bad luck - Luo Chaoyan, was blown into a strange ancient time by a typhoon.
Her father is a fifth-rank petty official, and her mother is the daughter of a we...
Chapter 173
King Huai walked up to Huo Jin and the others, bowed and said, "Huo Jin, Su Yi, thank you very much. The king will prepare a generous gift and come to your house to express his gratitude next day."
Huo Jin and Su Yi cupped their hands and said, "This is what I should do."
Prince Huai looked at Luo Chaoyan. He did not miss her rebellious words just now. He did not expect that such a cold man like Huo Jin would be attracted to her. It was really strange.
"Madam Huo, this princess has high praise for you. I hope to invite you to my house when I have free time."
Luo Chaoyan rolled her eyes in her heart. Is this praise? Which aspect? Is she tough? There is no need to do that. Nothing good will happen if she gets involved with the royal family. She values her life very much.
"Princess, you are too kind. I am not worthy of her praise." Let's leave it to others.
Yingwu flew to her hand at this time, looking at her with his chin raised high, as if asking her not to forget its contribution.
Luo Chaoyan chuckled. It seemed that she followed Huo An and Yingwu was also a person of the same character.
"Don't worry, I'll give you chicken legs when I get back."
King Huai looked at the Yingwu in her hand and said, "This Saker Falcon is truly spiritual. I have been looking for a Saker Falcon like this one, but never had the chance." He thought that the reason why Su Yi and the others arrived so quickly was because of the Saker Falcon.
Luo Chaoyan twitched the corners of her lips. Could it be that King Huai was planning to take advantage of her son Yingwu?
Huo Jin looked cold and said, "This is what my son has raised since he was a child."
King Huai smiled awkwardly and said, "Young Master Huo is very lucky to have found this magical bird." If it were an ordinary person, they would probably present it to him in a flattering manner just to please him. The Huo family really doesn't know how to appreciate it.
"It's fate. An An picked it up when it was injured. Maybe she kept it to repay the favor of saving its life." Luo Chaoyan said with a double meaning.
King Huai pursed his lips and said, "So that's how it is."
Huo Jin said: "Your Highness, it's getting late, we should go back."
King Huai nodded.
As he turned around, Luo Chaoyan inadvertently saw a man in black hiding on a rock. He was holding a crossbow in his hand and his eyes were aimed at King Huai.
Luo Chaoyan quickly raised her foot and kicked King Huai, hoping that he would dodge the arrow, but she raised her leg too quickly and kicked him on the butt before she could think, shouting, "Your Highness, be careful!"
King Huai was caught off guard and was kicked by her, causing him to stagger a few steps.
With a sound of "nailing", an arrow was stuck on the stone wall nearby.
"There's an assassin!"
The guards rushed to the edge of the rock, and soon the man in black was caught by them.
Huo Jin and Su Yi looked at each other and saw each other's suspicion.
Luo Chaoyan looked at King Huai apologetically and said, "Um, Your Highness, are you okay?" Ahem! She swore she kicked him on purpose, but the aim wasn't what she intended.
What she didn't know was that the moment she made her move, a guard beside her was already ready to attack, but his movements were a little slower than hers.
King Huai secretly glared at a guard beside him. This man was more likely to cause trouble than to help others, and his actions were even slower than a woman.
He looked at Luo Chaoyan and saw that she had an expression as if she had done something wrong. Why did he feel that she did it on purpose? Just save the person, can’t you just push him with your hands? Do you have to kick it?
His expression was a little stiff, and he said, "It's okay. I should be grateful to Madam Huo for saving me." He raised his eyes and looked at Huo Jin. What kind of shrew did he marry? She was so cruel. It hurts so much! He even wondered if the place where he was kicked was bruised.
Seeing his expression, Su Yi almost couldn't help but want to speak out.
Huo Jin raised his eyes to look at Luo Chaoyan, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
Luo Chaoyan bowed to Prince Huai and said, "Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Highness."
King Huai turned his head to look at the man in black who had been captured, raised his foot and kicked him, and said sternly: "Tell me, who are you? Who asked you to assassinate me?"
The man in black was kicked to the ground by him, but he didn't say a word.
"Very good. If you won't tell me, I have a way to make you tell me." He looked at the guards and said, "Take him back and pry his mouth open to make him reveal the mastermind behind this."
The guards responded, “Yes!”
King Huai looked at Huo Jin and the others with a compassionate expression and said, "I don't know who wants to put me to death."
The corner of Luo Chaoyan's lips twitched, that's it! King Huai's acting skills are not much inferior to those of modern actors. She almost believed it. If she guessed correctly, this whole plot was arranged by him, and the previous pursuit was probably arranged by the prince.
Huo Jin looked indifferent and said, "Your Highness, this matter involves the serious crime of murdering the prince. Let's hand it over to the Ministry of Justice."
King Huai waved his hands and said indignantly, "I must personally find out who wants to hurt me."
Su Yi sneered in his heart. The Ministry of Justice was the prince's people, so of course he would not let someone from the Ministry of Justice to try the case.
King Huai said, "It's getting late. We should go back. Father and mother must be getting anxious waiting for us."
So the group left the cliff.
Luo Chaoyan was afraid that Huo Jin would pull the injury on his shoulder, so she asked him to sit behind her. Let him put his hands around his waist to prevent him from falling off the horse.
Huo Jin looked at her expression, with rare tenderness on his face, and said softly: "Ayan, have I really caught you?" I finally caught your heart.
His words were questions, but his tone was certain.
Luo Chaoyan ignored him and just looked ahead intently.
Huo Jin noticed the redness on her earlobe and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Luo Chaoyan was annoyed and said, "What are you laughing at!"
Huo Jin said: "I'm very happy, Ayan, I finally waited for you."
She said this as if she was a heartless person. Isn't it just that she came to her senses a little late?
…
"Father!"
“Woo woo!”
Huo An, Huo Rui and others saw them riding towards them from a distance and couldn't help but shout at them with sobs.
"Whoa!"
Luo Chaoyan pulled the reins and stopped the horse.
She got off the horse first, and then helped Huo Jin off the horse.
Huo An and Huo Rui rushed to Huo Jin. Normally they were afraid of their father’s severity and dared not get close to him, but when they saw their father return safely, they didn’t care about anything else. They just wanted to hug their father tightly and make sure he was safe.
Huo Jin rubbed their heads, with a rare cold look on his face, and said, "I'm fine, don't worry."
Huo An wiped his eyes and reached out to Luo Chaoyan, "Mother!"
Luo Chaoyan was stunned, then walked over.
Huo An held Huo Jin in one hand and Luo Chaoyan in the other, saying, "Father, mother, our family will be fine."
Huo Jin nodded in agreement, "Yes, you still have to watch us get married and start a family."
When Yin Miaoshan, Su Qian and others saw this scene, their eyes became moist. It was so great!
