Chapter 123 My Daughter is a Charlatan
After cursing, the woman clasped her hands together and said devoutly, "Oh God, please don't listen to that beast. None of this beastman is good. Don't take it seriously. If that curse must come true, then let it fall on me, its mother."
Bu Ruo was slightly stunned when she heard her mother's words, and a smile appeared on her face: "Mom, don't worry, his curse will come back to him."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang, and a bolt of lightning struck the beast tribe leader, killing the still struggling leader instantly.
"Look, even God couldn't stand his curses, so he struck the man to death."
Bu Ruo's mother, Yan Xiyue, stared at her daughter in amazement. She quickly walked over and hugged her. "You little bastard, why are you here? It's so dangerous here. What are you doing here?"
"Wow, wow, wow...my Ruo'er, my daughter."
While comforting her mother, Bu Ruo looked at the three men who were nervously rubbing the corners of their clothes. She could only look at Xiao Yulan for help.
This was the first time that Xiao Yulan saw his princess so helpless. He smiled and walked over to the three men.
"It was General Bu who saved my life back then. I thank you again for saving my life."
"Also... I am now... Ruo'er's husband."
Sure enough, Bu Huaicang's attention was drawn to him: "What did you say? Say it again? Don't think that I won't beat you just because you're a prince!"
Bu Ruo's two brothers also looked at him eagerly: "I remember that the prince's health seemed to be not good. Two years ago, there was news that he would not live for many years. Now the prince is marrying my sister, is he going to let her be buried with the prince? We don't agree!"
"Whoever dares to let my sister be buried with me, my Bu family army will rebel, even if it's the one sitting on the dragon throne!"
Seeing that Xiao Yulan was not as good as herself, Bu Ruo quickly patted her mother's hand and said comfortingly, "I have been married to him for several months, and his body is well now. I will not be buried with him. Dad, Mom and Brother can rest assured."
"Let's find a place to rest first, and then we can talk about other things later."
Not long after, the group returned to Phantom's small courtyard. Seeing that it was getting dark, the others were fetching water or cooking, and they tactfully left the house for their family to talk. Even Xiao Yulan consciously did not go in.
Yan Xiyue kept holding Bu Ruo's hand, unwilling to let go: "Ruo'er, when did you come down the mountain? Why are you here?"
"I came down the mountain when I turned 15. I figured out my parents and brothers were alive, so I followed the clues and found my way here."
Bu Huaicang: "Calculated...?"
"Yes, my daughter is a charlatan."
Everyone: ...
Bu Tianrui: "Did my sister really marry the War King?"
"Really, but we haven't consummated the marriage yet."
Everyone: ...
Bu Tianyi: "Is the prince good to you?"
"That's good. He listens to me in everything. I'm the one who makes all the decisions in the palace. Oh, and now the Bu Family Army and the Armored Guards are in my control."
"Oh, and I want to tell my parents and brothers in advance that I'm going to rebel."
Bu Ruo had already prepared for his family's opposition, but who would have thought that they would just look at each other...
Yan Xiyue: "If the War King is devoted to his daughter, what's wrong with helping him seize the throne?"
Bu Huaicang: "My daughter should be the most honorable."
Bu Tianrui and Bu Tianyi said, "We have no objection. At worst, we can die together. Don't worry, sister. We will never hold you back. When we return, we will kill the crown prince and force him to abdicate. The throne should have belonged to the War King."
Bu Ruo: ...
"Actually, there's no need to rush. Um... I prepared some clothes for you before I came. I'll have someone bring them in soon. The water should be ready too. Dad, Mom, and brothers, take a shower, change clothes, and rest first. I'll be out first. I'll call you when it's time for dinner."
Watching Bu Ruo's back as she walked out, Bu Huaicang began to rub the corner of his clothes anxiously again: "Did we scare our daughter? She won't be afraid of me or dislike me, will she?"
Soon, Bi'er came in with the clothes and handed them to Yan Xiyue: "Madam, the princess specially asked Butler Zhang to make these clothes according to the figures of the madam, the master, and the two young masters. I don't know if they still fit after two years."
"But the princess asked me to bring needle and thread. If it doesn't fit, I can temporarily alter it. The princess will make it again when we get back."
Yan Xiyue gently touched the several sets of clothes on the table and wanted to cry again: "We haven't taken care of Ruo'er since she was a child. I didn't expect that she still thought about us so much and even prepared a dress for us."
"Have you been following Ruo'er since she was a child? Can you tell us about Ruo'er's childhood?"
Bi'er smiled and said, "Don't worry, Madam. You should wash up and rest for a while. We will talk for a long time in the future. I will go out first. They will bring water in soon."
Bu Ruo was not in the courtyard. Instead, he said something to Cen Nan and went to the Liu Clan with Xiao Yulan. They were accompanied by the leader, Doctor Du and... Jin Congcong.
"Why do you want to take me with you? I don't know how to detoxify... I can stay in the courtyard and help Cen Nan chop firewood, boil water for Bi'er, and cook."
"It's getting dark. Why don't you go tomorrow? I only had some dry food at noon. Aren't you hungry?"
"I'm a little hungry. I still have half a cake. Do you want to eat it?"
Doctor Du was speechless when he saw the man chewing on the bread. He really wanted to tell him that he was going to have a great disaster and let him scare himself to death.
Ruo'er has a really hard time. She has to take him with her wherever she goes because of that catastrophe.
"Strike while the iron is hot. If we go tomorrow, I'm afraid they'll run away. Besides, my parents just left the Beast Tribe, and I don't want them to run back and forth with me anymore."
"By the way, Grandpa Du, you just checked the pulses of my parents and brothers. How are they doing?"
Doctor Du stroked his beard and said, "They were poisoned by the Liu Clan back then, so they couldn't escape. I can actually cure this poison, but it will take three or two months, and they'll need to take good care of themselves afterwards."
Bu Ruo thought for a moment and said, "I can remove the poison in one day. I don't know how to regulate my body, so I'll trouble Grandpa Du."
Doctor Du nodded: "That's good, it will save you a lot of suffering."
Jin Congcong munched on a piece of bread while asking the leader, "Why haven't we arrived yet? Where is the Liu Clan? You're not...Ah! Ahhhh!"
Before he could finish his words, he saw Jin Congcong's feet being caught by vines, and he was flying headfirst towards a big tree. The thick branches of the tree were facing him. If he crashed into the vines, not even a god could save him.
Xiao Yulan was the first to react. He flew over and grabbed Jin Congcong by the back of his collar with one hand, and slapped the vine with the other hand, and the vine instantly retracted.
