Chapter 312 Don’t you want to avenge your father?
Huo Linger tossed and turned in bed that night.
Since returning to Linlangxuan, she has been sleeping with Xiaotuanzi every day. They always play for a while before going to bed, and most of the time they fall asleep without realizing it because they are tired from playing.
But tonight, not to mention Huo Linger's bedroom, the entire Linlangxuan was silent, and there was no more laughter from that dumpling.
"It's better without her." Huo Ling'er tossed and turned in bed. "That liar is so noisy, I can't stand it anymore."
The next morning, Bai Kou and Bai Zhi were waiting at the door when they saw Huo Linger coming out with two huge dark circles under her eyes.
"Where's Little Dumpling?" she asked drowsily, "Is she up yet?"
Bai Kou and Bai Zhi looked at each other, both silent, not knowing how to answer.
Huo Linger paused rubbing her eyes and suddenly remembered that the little dumpling and the little bamboo were gone.
Her nose felt sore and her eyes felt uncomfortable, so she turned around and walked back.
"Princess, it's time for you to get up and have breakfast." Bai Kou said quickly from behind.
"I'm not hungry." Huo Ling'er's voice was slightly choked. She immediately closed the door and tried to control her emotions, saying, "I'll sleep a little longer."
As she spoke, she ran to the bed, threw herself on the quilt, and began to cry softly.
"Bad guy, liar!" She couldn't help but curse Xiaotuanzi and Youzhu in her heart, but she couldn't help thinking about them.
Bai Kou and Bai Zhi waited outside for a long time. It was already past noon, but Huo Linger still refused to come out of the room.
"What should I do?" Bai Kou was so anxious, she was spinning around in circles. "If this goes on, I'm afraid the princess won't even come out for lunch."
"It's all the fault of those two little bastards." Bai Zhi couldn't help but curse.
At this time, a palace servant hurried in from outside, "Greetings to the two girls. Where is our princess? The emperor wants to see you."
"Your Majesty? You want to see our princess?" Bai Kou was slightly surprised and said with a twitch of her lips, "The princess was not feeling well last night and hasn't gotten up yet."
The palace servant smiled and said, "Then please ask Miss Bai Kou to go in and shout. The emperor is waiting. I will go back first."
Obviously, it can't be pushed away.
There was no choice, so Bai Kou and Bai Zhi went to knock on the door together.
"Come in." At this moment, Huo Linger's emotions stabilized a little.
"Princess, someone from the Fire God Temple came over and said that the emperor wants to see you." Bai Kou said softly.
"Uncle?" Huo Ling'er frowned. "Is there something important?"
"He didn't say anything, but it seems like there's something important going on. He said the Emperor is waiting." Bai Zhi began to help Huo Ling'er find clothes. "Princess, you should go and spend some time in the palace."
"Yeah." Huo Linger had no intention of refusing.
Soon, Bai Kou and Bai Zhi helped Huo Linger wash and change her clothes, and then accompanied her to the Fire God Temple.
Huo Yan was waiting there. He was ready to tell Huo Linger the truth about Li Suining's identity. Moreover, he had already asked people to ambush near the palace gate. As long as Huo Linger drove Li Suining and Xiao Zhuzi away, his people could take their lives.
After all, Huo Yan watched Huo Linger grow up, and he understood this child. In her rage, she would not hurt them, and would most likely drive them away.
This is his best chance.
Huo Yan waited for a while and then saw Huo Linger coming.
He walked forward, his expression startled, "Ling'er, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
He noticed that Huo Linger looked very bad, and Li Suining and Xiao Zhuzi did not come with her.
"Uncle, I'm fine. I just didn't sleep well last night." Huo Linger curled the corners of her mouth.
Huo Yan nodded in understanding, then asked tentatively, "Why didn't that little Tuanzi and Xiao Zhuzi come with you?"
Huo Linger frowned quickly, and her mood, which had just calmed down a little, fluctuated again.
"Does the emperor's uncle want to talk to them about something?" she asked, trying to suppress her emotions.
"Nothing, nothing." Huo Yan didn't ask any more questions, but instead took Huo Ling'er's hand and said, "Ling'er, the emperor's uncle asked you to come here today because he has something to tell you."
He sighed deeply, "Uncle Huang really can't bear to see you being deceived again."
Huo Linger looked over in surprise, tears glistening in Youyuan's eyes.
"Ling'er, do you know who the two children you brought back are?" Huo Yan did not realize that Huo Ling'er was abnormal, and continued to speak helplessly.
Huo Linger didn't say anything, but her expression became more pitiful.
"Ling'er, that little girl who chases after you and calls you sister every day, she...she is the daughter of Bai Yunfeng, the enemy who killed your father."
Huo Yan looked very sad, but his eyes were constantly observing Huo Linger's reaction.
Huo Linger pulled her hand back, holding back her tears, "I know."
"What?" This time it was Huo Yan's turn to be surprised. "You knew? When did you know?"
Huo Ling'er sniffed, "It was last night, and I've already kicked them out of the palace."
"What?" Huo Yan was increasingly surprised. He said with a look of dismay, "Ling'er, why are you so impulsive?"
He hated himself for being a step late. He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that they would have a showdown with Huo Linger last night.
He refused to give up and grabbed Huo Ling'er and asked, "Ling'er, do you know where they went?"
Huo Linger's eyes flashed slightly, but she didn't answer. Of course she knew that they must have gone to the inn.
"Ling'er, they are our Northern Barbarian enemies. We must not let them escape back to Dajin," Huo Yan asked excitedly. "Ling'er, tell the Emperor's uncle, where have they gone?"
"I..." Huo Linger subconsciously didn't want to say it, because she knew that if she said it, Xiaotuanzi and Xiaozhuzi might die.
"Ling'er!" Huo Yan was agitated. "Tell the Emperor's uncle quickly, don't you want to avenge your aunt and father?"
He grabbed Huo Ling'er's weak shoulders with both hands and said excitedly, "Ling'er, Li Suining is not only a liar who deceived you, but also the daughter of your father's murderer. As long as we capture her, we can force Bai Yunfeng to come here, and your father's revenge can be avenged. Do you understand?"
Huo Ling'er couldn't bear it any longer. She trembled and asked, "So... what are you going to do with them now that the emperor has captured them?"
She couldn't help but speak well of the little girl, "After all, it was Bai Yunfeng who killed my father, not Li Suining. She...doesn't deserve to die."
"Don't worry, I won't kill her. I just want to use her to lure Baiyun Peak," Huo Yan said, hiding the cruelty in his eyes. "But, that little Zhuzi... he can't live."
"But..." Huo Ling'er said anxiously, "Uncle, Xiao Zhuzi is my aunt's son!"
"What?" Huo Yan suspected he had misheard. "Whose son are you talking about... Xiao Zhuzi?"
"Aunt!" Huo Ling'er sniffed, "Uncle, Xiao Zhuzi is of the Northern Barbarian royal family. He was just picked up by Bai Yunfeng. He doesn't know that he is his enemy."
Huo Yan's mind was a little confused, but he knew that there was no time to sort things out now, and he had to catch the person first.
"Ling'er, take the emperor's uncle to their place first. We can talk about the rest later!"
