Chapter 554 You should return what you exchanged with me.
The man had his back to Zhao Ziyun. When Zhao Ziyun spoke, the man slowly turned around.
A face so beautiful it seemed otherworldly.
Zhao Ziyun trembled and his face turned deathly pale!
He's been dreaming about him every day for the past few days!
The man looked at Zhao Ziyun calmly, his red lips curving upwards, his eyes filled with a chilling calmness.
"You should return what you exchanged with me!"
The man's lips curled into a smile as he slowly walked towards Zhao Ziyun.
Zhao Ziyun's eyes were filled with fear.
Just as the man's hand was about to touch Zhao Ziyun's brow, a beam of golden light flashed from Zhao Ziyun's waist.
The peach wood plaque emitted a dazzling golden light, protecting Zhao Ziyun.
The man frowned slightly, a hint of annoyance in his beautiful peach blossom eyes.
Even so, the man was still incredibly beautiful.
He gave a soft hum and looked in the direction where Wang Mingtian was.
He murmured softly, but Zhao Ziyun couldn't hear anything.
"Di Xin, what's the use of all your hard work? The Shang Dynasty is doomed, just like you, clearly on your deathbed, yet still believing yourself to be the king you once were..."
After the man finished speaking, he turned to look at Zhao Ziyun.
"Fine, I'll keep you for a few more days!" the man murmured, then his figure disappeared from the spot.
The man gave a soft snort, turned around, and disappeared from the spot.
Zhao Ziyun paused, but acted as if nothing had happened.
He had no recollection of what had just happened.
Inside Princess Xiaosubao's residence, a figure slowly appeared.
"Di Xin, why waste your energy!" the man said calmly.
Wang Mingtian sat lazily on the rooftop, drinking as he looked at the newcomer.
"I don't know if it took me any effort, but you shouldn't have come out at this time!"
Wang Mingtian squinted, his voice carrying a hint of inexplicable emotion.
The man raised an eyebrow, his smile radiant; for a moment, even the stars in the sky seemed to dim slightly.
"I am #￥%￥%, do you think I'd be afraid?"
The man frowned slightly, raised his eyes, and glared at the sky.
Wang Mingtian remained unmoved, instead laughing: "Haha, you've automatically blocked me out. I never thought you'd have a day like this!"
He laughed heartily, the smile on his lips impossible to suppress.
The man raised an eyebrow, then waved his hand, and a barrier appeared between them.
"I've come to tell you that Zhao Ziyun is mine. If you give him anything again, I'll snatch him away!" The man snorted softly, his beauty breathtaking.
"Then come and take it!" Wang Mingtian smiled broadly, his eyes filled with a hint of mockery.
The two faced off, and a tense atmosphere could be vaguely felt in the air.
The man looked at Wang Mingtian and rolled his eyes at the latter's shameless behavior.
When Wang Mingtian saw this scene, he almost spat out the wine in his mouth.
Doesn't this person consider himself an aristocrat and would never do such a rude thing?
Seeing Wang Mingtian break down, the man's smile became even brighter.
"Di Xin, this is your last chance. Enjoy your final moments!"
After the man finished speaking, he vanished from the spot in an instant.
Wang Mingtian waved his hand, erasing the traces left by the man.
Little Su Bao was completely unaware of all this, only vaguely sensing a strange sense of crisis.
Mo Bao, on the other hand, gently covered his chest.
His heart seemed to be beating a little faster just now.
For some reason, he instinctively wanted to see Xiao Su Bao.
Seeing the little girl's clear eyes, Mo Bao's eyes held an indescribable emotion.
Their gazes met in the space.
Just then, Tang Bugui appeared out of nowhere and stood between the two of them.
"Su Bao, come here, Daddy roasted a leg of lamb for you, have a taste!"
As Tang Bugui was speaking, he bumped Mo Bao to the side with his butt.
The Empress, who was not far away, saw Tang Bugui's appearance and her eyes showed a hint of helplessness.
General Tang, who usually appears cold and aloof, seemingly detached from worldly affairs, is now acting like a child.
Little Su Bao didn't understand why, but she still obediently took the lamb leg from her father's hand.
She tilted her head and looked at the calligraphy behind Tang Bugui.
"Father, may I share some food with Mo Bao?"
The little girl didn't notice her father's increasingly dark face and asked instinctively.
Tang Bugui...
"No way, that kid has his own food. Besides, he doesn't even know to grill meat for you. We're not playing with him!" Tang Bugui said, pulling Xiao Subao's hand and walking to the side.
Mo Bao looked at the empty skewers of barbecue in front of him, then at Xiao Su Bao who had been dragged away, and smiled helplessly.
The boy looked much more mature, but there was a hint of worry deep in his eyes.
What kind of danger is coming?
The boy looked up at the sky, and vaguely seemed to see something.
Just then, the Empress walked up to Mo Bao. She had no idea that Mo Bao was actually Yun Laosan's child.
After a moment of silence, the Empress said, "Your father was kind to me back then. Now, is there anything you desire?"
Mo Bao was looking at the sky when he heard the Empress's voice, and he quickly looked away.
The young man bowed to the Empress and said, "Your Majesty, Yunmo only wishes to avenge the Yun family. Before that..."
He paused, but his gaze followed Xiao Su Bao.
He is no longer a child, and some feelings have been slowly deepening.
The boy was silent for a moment, then said, "Until then, I don't want to think about anything else!"
The Empress looked at the young man's innocent and budding appearance, a hint of a smile in her eyes.
These two children grew up together and were even engaged!
Don't be fooled by Yun Mo's seemingly nonchalant words; his eyes and every gesture reveal a hidden agenda.
The Empress smiled and said, "Yes, that's good!"
Yunmo breathed a slight sigh of relief, but his eyes brightened a bit.
Time flies, and it's time to return to Beijing in the blink of an eye.
These past few days, Xiao Su Bao has been having a great time in the military camp. She treats patients and helps with chores in the camp; the little girl seems to have inexhaustible energy.
As I was leaving, I actually felt a little reluctant to go.
"It's time to return to the capital!" The Empress smiled and looked at the reluctant little Su Bao.
The emperor has urged us several times already; if we don't go back soon, he might just come running.
"You can come to the women's military camp anytime you want!" The Empress looked at Xiao Su Bao and smiled slightly.
The little girl's eyes lit up instantly.
The women's military camp has been completely transformed, and those who had ulterior motives have been dealt with.
The group had just returned to the official road and hadn't gone far when they saw a young man in a white robe standing not far away, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Seeing them return, a ray of light seemed to appear in the boy's eyes.
"Brother Ziyun!" Little Su Bao, riding on her horse, was slightly taken aback when she saw the person approaching.
Isn't Zhao Ziyun currently working at the Ministry of Revenue?
Yunmo was already in front of Xiaosubao.
At that moment, he also saw Zhao Ziyun.
Their eyes met for a moment, and sparks seemed to fly between them.
Little Su Bao rode his horse closer.
Zhao Ziyun had a slight smile on his face.
The little girl leaped off the horse in one bound.
"Brother Ziyun, what are you doing here?" Xiao Subao asked Zhao Ziyun in confusion.
They didn't tell anyone else they were coming back!
Seeing the curiosity in Xiao Su Bao's eyes, Zhao Ziyun smiled and said, "I just happened to be on vacation, so I came to try my luck!"
He felt a little sorry for Xiao Su Bao, who had lost a lot of weight and gotten much darker.
However, Zhao Ziyun didn't say much, only saying, "I brought glutinous rice chicken, and canned soup, and... rest for a while and come and try some!"
As he spoke, the two servants behind him hurriedly stepped forward and brought out all the things their young master had prepared.
The emperor had been in a bad mood for the past few days, but suddenly his mood improved yesterday, and Zhao Ziyun guessed what was going on.
Otherwise, how could we have a day off today?
He arrived very early in the morning, and the food has been changed twice.
Little Su Bao sighed.
She saw the red thread on Zhao Ziyun's body!
Just like the red thread my uncle used to tie, it's meant to wrap around me.
"Brother Ziyun, you mustn't..." The little girl tried to persuade Zhao Ziyun, but was interrupted by him.
"Alright, nothing is more important than eating. Go and eat something to fill your stomach first!"
Zhao Ziyun's eyes were pleading, and Xiao Su Bao had never seen him look so humble before!
The young girl felt a little soft-hearted. She sighed and was about to speak when suddenly, a sword pierced towards her chest.
Zhao Ziyun rushed in front of Su Bao instantly and protected her.
The longsword pierced through Zhao Ziyun's chest.
That person was actually Zhao Ziyun's servant...
"Yama has descended, and his glory will last forever!"
After shouting, the servant suddenly picked up his long sword and committed suicide.
Everyone's faces were extremely grim, and Tang Bugui couldn't stop them even if he tried.
They were too ruthless!
"I...I'm sorry..." Zhao Ziyun looked at Xiao Su Bao with difficulty, his voice trembling slightly.
Xiao Su Bao's expression changed drastically. She quickly pulled out a silver needle and stabbed it into Zhao Ziyun's chest.
"Brother Ziyun is alright, don't worry, you'll be fine!"
Xiao Su Bao quickly sprinkled the wound medicine she had prepared over the past few days onto Zhao Ziyun's chest.
Just then, Yunmo came over, his face serious and his eyes filled with worry.
"I'll carry him!"
After Yunmo finished speaking, he picked up Zhao Ziyun without saying another word.
Little Su Bao followed closely behind.
They used their lightness skills to run towards Kyoto.
The Empress raised an eyebrow and glanced at what had just happened.
"Your Majesty, this young man from the Zhao family... he's got quite a few tricks up his sleeve!"
The man next to him, Jia, squinted, his tone tinged with a hint of bewilderment.
The Empress glanced at Jia Yi, then said, "He likes Su Bao, he's liked her for a long time!"
The Empress had naturally investigated Zhao Ziyun's matter.
The boy was disliked, abandoned, and even hunted down by the Zhao family!
Later, Zhao Ziyun, using the alias Zhao Yun, settled in Zhao Family Village. Still later, he managed to establish a relationship with Xiao Su Bao and the others.
Putting all that aside, at the most crucial moment, Zhao Ziyun treated Xiao Su Bao differently from everyone else.
Zhao Ziyun was indeed stunned at first.
But his reaction was quick; he even protected Xiao Su Bao and took the knife for her—these actions were genuine.
But this kid was deliberately making himself look serious.
That sword almost grazed Zhao Ziyun's heart.
If anything goes wrong, Zhao Ziyun might really die!
The Empress glanced at Jia Yi, then said, "Don't even think about it. He won't go with you!"
A touched his nose and chuckled.
The group returned to the princess's residence. Wang Mingtian was drinking in the courtyard when he saw the group of people running in, and his lips twitched.
"Master, please take a look at Brother Ziyun! He's been stabbed in the chest!" Xiao Su Bao said hurriedly.
Wang Mingtian's face darkened, and his gaze toward the boy held a hint of something inexplicable.
He knew that kid was cunning!
"I understand. Take the person to the guest room, I'll be right there!"
After Wang Mingtian finished speaking, he turned and left.
Yunmo carried the unconscious Zhao Ziyun to the guest room.
Little Su Bao was stopped by Qian Shi, who came running over and asked her all sorts of questions. Now, only the two of them were left in the room.
Yunmo didn't speak, but carefully placed Zhao Ziyun, who had his eyes closed, on the bed.
Just as he was about to leave, Zhao Ziyun suddenly grabbed Yunmo's hand.
"Yunmo, why are you still trying to take it from me!"
Zhao Ziyun looked at Yunmo with resentment. Yunmo had clearly said before that he had no other intentions, so why was he like this?
Yunmo looked at the boy with a gloomy look in his eyes and remained silent for a moment.
"Yes, I like Su Bao!"
Yunmo thought for a moment, then said very firmly.
Zhao Ziyun's eyes widened instantly.
Then Yunmo's voice came: "I wasn't sure at first, but you made me sure!"
Yunmo used to feel a sense of closeness to Su Bao, and being near Su Bao gave her a strange warmth.
He originally planned to be Su Bao's father in the future, but Zhao Ziyun threatened him.
His repeated approach made Yunmo slowly realize that he seemed to have an overly strong possessive desire for Su Bao.
He's fifteen now, which is the age for him to get married!
Zhao Ziyun nearly coughed up blood when he heard his words.
It's impossible to guard against!
Just as Zhao Ziyun was about to speak, he suddenly saw a shadowy figure at the doorway.
A glint of light flickered in his eyes.
"Yunmo loves Subao. In this life, I only want to marry her..."
After Zhao Ziyun finished speaking, without giving Yunmo a chance to reply, he said directly, "I know my kung fu is not as good as yours, but I have a sincere heart. I really hope Su Bao can be happy. If... you really want to take her from me, I won't let go!"
At the door, Xiao Su Bao hesitated for a moment, unsure whether she should go in.
However, Qian Shi, who was standing to the side, looked rather dark-skinned.
Zhao Ziyun is injured, yet he still won't behave!
Ms. Qian, holding Xiao Su Bao's hand, decided not to go over there.
Since he can talk like that, his body is probably not in any serious condition, at least he won't die anytime soon.
Yunmo looked completely bewildered, not understanding why Zhao Ziyun had suddenly changed his tone.
But after a pause, he said, "Su Bao is still young, let's talk about it when she's older!"
Zhao Ziyun...
Madam Qian was amused by Yunmo's words.
Little Su Bao's cheeks flushed slightly, her big eyes blinked, and she didn't know what to say.
Seeing the little girl's expression, Madam Qian said, "Yunmo is right. You are still young, and it's too early to say what you like or dislike. When you grow up and know what you want and don't want, then we can talk about these things!"
Looking at the young girl who had grown into a graceful young lady, Qian's heart stirred slightly.
That little girl who was once so thin and frail, like a kitten, has grown up now.
Someone actually likes her!
Qian felt a pang of sadness, but the smile in her eyes deepened.
