Chapter 321 Or perhaps I should just go and kill him!
(Thanks to Xingzhi for casting 5 monthly tickets.)
After Yan Xuefei and Li Mingfeng entered the city, they went to the back door of an embroidery shop as instructed in Yan Jiuniang's letter. After knocking a few times, they soon heard an old woman's voice from behind the door: "Who is knocking? What is the matter?"
"Family members, for reunion!"
The old woman opened the door and watched the two men lead the horse into the backyard. "The master is not here right now; he hasn't returned yet."
However, the landlord instructed that once the lady arrived, she should simply stay and rest for a while.
I'll send word right away; the master will definitely be back before evening."
Hearing the old woman's words, Yan Xuefei finally felt relieved. After exchanging a glance with Li Mingfeng, she bowed to the old woman to express her gratitude, and then went into the house with Li Mingfeng.
After traveling for several days, and then being soaked in the rain for the past two days, Yan Xuefei, despite being in relatively good health, was extremely exhausted after all this.
After they entered the house, the old woman knocked on the door and brought them hot tea and pastries.
"My lady and my husband, please have some hot tea to warm yourselves up and have a piece of pastry to tide you over. I'll make some noodle soup right away, it'll be ready in a little while."
By the time the old woman served the hot noodle soup, the rain that had been falling all day had finally stopped.
As evening fell, the lights were lit inside the house. Before seeing Yan Jiuniang, Yan Xuefei, despite being very tired, still dared not sleep.
Yan Xuefei, who was sitting at the table with her eyes closed, suddenly heard a noise outside. She opened her eyes abruptly, stood up, and went to the door.
While Yan Xuefei was making her move, Li Mingfeng, who was sitting to the side, grabbed the longsword beside him and chased after Yan Xuefei, who had already reached the door.
"Mother!"
"Ninth Sister!"
Mother and daughter were reunited after months apart. They embraced and wept with joy.
After the two calmed down, Yan Jiuniang stood up somewhat embarrassed and gave a proper bow to Li Mingfeng, who was smiling at them.
"I've made a fool of myself in front of my uncle."
Uncle and Mother must be exhausted. I asked Granny Qiu to boil some hot water. You two can take a hot bath tonight; it will relieve your fatigue and help you sleep.
Let's get some rest tonight, and then we'll have a proper talk tomorrow morning.
"It's just been a few days of travel, I'm fine."
Your mother, on the other hand, was so worried about you the whole way, traveling non-stop, that she really didn't get a good night's sleep.
As Li Mingfeng spoke, he looked at Yan Xuefei, and Yan Jiuniang followed Li Mingfeng's gaze to look at her own mother.
Yan Xuefei ignored Li Mingfeng and instead pulled Yan Jiuniang to sit down again. Her face was solemn, and the tenderness she had shown when they first met was gone. She looked into Yan Jiuniang's eyes and said, "Your letter was not very clear. It only said that something big had happened and that I had to come to see you."
Mother is in good health, just a little tired.
You should quickly tell your mother what happened that made you write such a letter.
How can I sleep if you don't tell me?
Yan Xuefei spoke rapidly to Yan Jiuniang, her anxiety and worry evident to everyone.
Faced with her mother's question, Yan Jiuniang raised her hand to pour a cup of tea for Yan Xuefei, and then poured a cup for Li Mingfeng who was sitting next to her. Just as she was about to pour herself a cup of tea, she heard Yan Xuefei ask her urgently from the side: "When can't we drink this tea?"
Tell me quickly what happened.
"Could it be that your father has arranged another marriage for you?"
Yan Jiuniang looked up at Yan Xuefei, who had hit the nail on the head, with her mouth agape in surprise.
Seeing Yan Jiuniang's appearance, how could Yan Xuefei not know that she had really hit the nail on the head?
"Okay, okay, I knew it was early June when you came to the mountain to see us and stayed for more than a month before leaving."
Why did I suddenly receive another letter at the end of the month?
Liu Cong, that heartless bastard!
Did I ask for your opinion before arranging this marriage for you?
Which family did he assign you to?
How old is that person? Is it...?
"Mother, Mother, wait, wait a minute..."
Yan Jiuniang had to interrupt Yan Xuefei. After Yan Xuefei stopped speaking, she looked at Yan Xuefei with trepidation and whispered, "After I told Mother, please don't be angry."
I absolutely refuse this marriage!
The reason I called my mother back this time was to discuss with her how I could escape the marriage that my father had arranged for me.
And I also have to be wary of my father using my uncle's family and Qingyun Temple to threaten me into obeying. I need to find a way not only to protect my uncle's family, but also to protect Qingyun Temple!
Then Yan Jiuniang told him, word by word, about how the Prince of Zhenbei had arranged for her to marry the son of the Turkic Khan.
He also told Yan Xuefei that the Prince of Zhenbei had betrothed a Turkic prince named She'er, the same Turkic man who had been knocked to the ground twice by Li Shiyue and had traded wool with him.
Yan Xuefei was furious as soon as Yan Jiuniang finished speaking.
Her head felt like it had exploded halfway. Before Yan Jiuniang could finish speaking, Yan Xuefei stood up, grabbed the long sword next to the table, and shouted, "Damn it!"
I need to go and ask him if he still has any feelings for me.
You are his own daughter, how could he marry you off to a barbarian?
He... he's probably gone mad!
I want to go to the Prince's Palace!
I'm going to ask him what he's really thinking!
When Li Mingfeng saw Yan Xuefei about to leave with her sword, he immediately stood up, took his sword, and was about to follow her.
"Mother! Mother!"
Listen to me, listen to me!
Uncle, uncle, don't panic! Uncle, stop my mother!
But Li Mingfeng was not the type to stop Yan Xuefei; he was the kind of person who would go with her to the Prince's Mansion if she said so.
"My father is not at the palace!"
Off to patrol the border!
Even his mother couldn't find him!
Hearing Yan Jiuniang's words, Yan Xuefei regained her senses. She put down her hand that was opening the door and turned to look at the anxious Yan Jiuniang: "Really? Your father is really not in the Prince's mansion?"
"Oh dear, Mother, why would I lie to you!"
"Please sit down, and we can talk slowly."
Yan Jiuniang turned to Li Mingfeng beside her and said, "Uncle, please sit down too. Let's discuss this further!"
After hearing Yan Jiuniang's words, Yan Xuefei and Li Mingfeng sat down again.
The three of them sat down again around the round table in an equilateral triangle formation. Each of them held a cup of tea. They looked at each other but no one spoke.
Suddenly, Li Mingfeng spoke up, saying to Yan Jiuniang and Yan Xuefei, "How about I go and kill him instead?"
Once he's dead, Jiu Niang will never have to worry about who she'll marry again!
If Jiu Niang wishes to marry in the future, then she may marry.
Jiu Niang can marry whomever she wants!
If you don't want to get married, then don't get married!
"It's fine if you don't get married; just do what you like."
Then, Li Mingfeng looked at Yan Xuefei again, waiting for her to nod in agreement with what he had just said.
"How about I go and kill him?"
Kill him, and everything will be resolved, everything will be alright!
We no longer need to worry that he will harm Jiu Niang, force her to marry someone unknown, and use Jiu Niang's life to gain the benefits he desires!
That way, Uncle Yan's family won't have to live in fear anymore!
Seeing that Yan Xuefei remained silent, Li Mingfeng spoke a few more words.
Last time at the Yuelai Restaurant, Li Mingfeng had murderous intent.
This time, his murderous intent resurfaced!
