The students of the academy just wanted to ask for advice, but they never expected to see such a commotion. When they heard that Xiao Cunyu had run away, they were all shocked.
Seeing Mrs. Xiao's angry look was really scary, no one dared to stay any longer and left immediately.
Xiong immediately found Xiao Jingyun and asked him to make the decision and think about what to do, whether to send people to chase him, how to chase him, and where to chase him!
But when Xiao Jingyun came back, Zhule handed him another note, which was also written by Xiao Cunyu.
Only a few words were written: My life span is insufficient, I need to travel around the world to seek a way to prolong my life!
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyun almost went crazy holding the letter.
He was already worried, and now he heard that the life span was not enough... Xiao Jingyun became furious.
"My son, what should we do? The child left yesterday, and now we don't know where she is! She is all alone..."
"Mother, Tieyi is following us." Xiao Jingyun tried to remain calm, remembering how Xiao Cunyu had looked when she faced the fake prince consort and his son at the Han family. He immediately added, "Cunyu has martial arts skills, so she will definitely be able to survive. I'm just worried that she doesn't have enough money and will have to sleep outdoors."
Before leaving, Xiao Cunyu did not go to the accounting office to withdraw money.
Even the jewels given by Xiong were still kept there, and none of them were taken away.
In other words, she would have to rely on her own abilities to raise Tieyi from now on. This was what worried him the most, especially since... Tieyi was such a big guy and he ate a lot...
"Martial arts?" Xiong was confused. "That child is very timid. In the past, he was scared away by a ten-year-old kid..."
"Mom, she lied to us back then." Xiao Jingyun was also helpless. "It's also my fault for not caring enough about her. Later, when I saw her pretending to be pitiful, I completely forgot to test her martial arts. I only knew that she should have some skills, but I didn't know how much... But she was young before, and she was able to live like a fish in water outside, so I guess her martial arts skills are not too bad."
"Then don't chase him?" Xiong was worried.
"How can I chase her? She has such a stubborn temper... This time she probably just wants to go out for fun. Such a big thing as calculating the secrets of the sky is known to the whole world, so it's better for her to avoid the limelight. Besides, my son sees that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be interested in my seventh brother. Since she refuses to join the royal family, she may be able to escape by running away now." Although Xiao Jingyun was worried, he put the letter away after considering it.
After living with Xiao Qi for so long, Xiao Jingyun probably has a good idea of his seventh brother's personality.
She doesn't like being constrained or forced, so after her disguise as a man was exposed, she would rather calculate the secrets of heaven and take the responsibility herself, leaving the emperor with no way to deal with her.
I don’t know who he resembles with this stubborn temper.
"Let her be. Let our people pay more attention to her. If we meet her, just give her some money." Xiao Jingyun sighed.
Since her son had said so, Xiong could only accept her fate: "The Crown Prince is not bad... He's already grown up, but he still doesn't have a wife... Forget it, the royal family has strict rules..."
If the prince really ascends the throne in the future, how can he not marry and have children like he does now?
The selection of concubines every three years is inevitable. If the prince is unwilling, all the civil and military officials in the court will definitely keep persuading him. To be his wife, it would really be... always worrying that another woman would appear and take away his favor.
Xiong couldn't imagine that Xiao Cunyu would end up living like a resentful woman.
