Chapter 149 Who is my biological father?
Yun Zhaoxue was completely confused; she had never said she wanted a divorce!
"Divorce? Why do you want a divorce? Did the Third Prince see you committing murder and then threaten you?"
If threatened, kill him.
They'll clash sooner or later, so it's better to strike first.
“Yes, he said he saw it, and there are witnesses and physical evidence. Shen Yan might be alright, he was rescued by someone else, or he might be dead. He took the opportunity to ask me to join his ranks, and said that when we passed through Xuzhou, he would guarantee that Governor Xu would not make things difficult for me, and that once he took that position, the Xiao family army would be back in my hands.”
Yun Zhaoxue chimed in, "And then he wants you to conquer the world for him? He's got some self-awareness; he doesn't want to take over the Xiao family army."
The Xiao family army only recognizes the head of the Xiao family. The soul of the Xiao family army lies mainly in its commander-in-chief. If other generals were in command, the Xiao family army would not be able to win every battle.
"Um!"
Yun Zhaoxue asked again, "He didn't ask us to divorce, so why did you suddenly bring up divorce? Are you afraid of implicating me, or... are you seeing someone else?"
Xiao Xuance was bewildered. "There are people outside? Who are they? Do they count as secret guards and bodyguards?"
Yun Zhaoxue found it amusing, unsure whether he hadn't understood or was deliberately trying to mislead her. Judging from his bewildered expression, it was probably the former.
"Who asked you about your guards? I'm asking if you have other women outside of your marriage?"
The man answered decisively, "No!"
Yun Zhaoxue poked his chest and asked, "What's in your heart? Tell the truth, no lying!"
Xiao Xuance held her hand and pressed it to his heart. His phoenix eyes were slightly lowered, reflecting her face. He said sincerely, "There are no other women in my heart. There are only you and the child in my heart."
Yun Zhaoxue tried to pull her hand away, but found that he was holding it tightly.
Just as he was about to exert force, he simultaneously released his grip.
Yun Zhaoxue leaned back and grabbed his collar.
Xiao Xuance quickly reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist, holding her tightly in his embrace.
"Bang!" Yun Zhaoxue's nose collided with his hard chest, turning it red.
Xiao Xuance reached out and gently massaged her.
Because of a stuffy nose, Yun Zhaoxue's voice was a little nasal, as if she was crying, "Then why did you propose a divorce?"
Xiao Xuance slowly lowered his left hand, while his right hand, which was wrapped around her waist, clenched into a fist.
“I killed Shen Yan, and I’ve killed many others. My hands are stained with blood. Would you think I’m ruthless and indiscriminately killing innocent people, just like everyone else?”
If she gets scared and wants a divorce, he can... agree, he'll raise the child, and it won't stop her from finding her next partner.
Yun Zhaoxue finally understood why he was acting so strangely, and put her hands on her hips.
"Scared? Who do you think you are? Want a divorce over something so trivial? How childish! You're not the type to cause trouble; he must have provoked you first. He deserved to die! But I'm curious, how did he provoke you, and how did you kill him?"
The two talked as they followed the marks to a cave.
Inside the cave, Hua Murong and Zhuiying set up a fire to roast a chicken, the aroma of which filled the air.
When Hua Murong saw them arrive, he waved to them, "You've come at the right time, it's cooked, come and eat."
Yun Zhaoxue noticed the wolf pelt he was sitting on and asked in surprise, "Divine Doctor, where did you get the wolf pelt you're sitting on?"
Hua Murong pointed into the cave and said, "Look, there's a bed over there with two wolf pelts on it. They're quite clean. I'll borrow them to sit on. There's another one here."
Zhuiying went in again and took out another one, spreading it on the stone for them to sit on.
Xiao Xuance: "Wolf pelts are precious, how come there are so many here?"
Zhuiying replied, "I sent people to investigate beforehand. There is a wolf mountain nearby. Last winter, heavy snow caused the price of wolf pelts to soar. Villagers from the area formed teams to hunt wolves in the mountains. With so many wolf pelts, they became worthless. It may be difficult to sell them now that it's summer. We'll keep them in the caves and wait until autumn to sell them."
"I heard that a large pack of wolves has fled to the nearby mountains to hide. Your Highness and Princess, please be careful while you are staying in the wild. Your subordinates will protect you in secret and will intervene if necessary."
"Um."
Xiao Xuance then had Hua Murong take Yun Zhaoxue's pulse.
They didn't say it was twins, they just said they wanted to check if it was safe.
As soon as Hua Murong's two fingers touched her wrist, she blurted out, "This is the pulse of twins."
Zhuiying exclaimed excitedly, "Twins?"
Congratulations to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess on the arrival of twins!
Xiao Xuance nodded slightly.
Hua Murong smelled a burnt smell, sniffed, and pointed to the roast chicken on the rack, saying, "Oh dear, it's burnt, take it down quickly."
Zhuiying took the chicken down, tore off a large chicken leg, and handed it to Yun Zhaoxue, saying, "Please eat, Princess Consort."
Hua Murong slapped his thigh and yelled, "You brat, don't you understand the importance of respecting elders and caring for the young?"
Yun Zhaoxue gave him her chicken leg, saying, "Divine Doctor, here you go."
"No, no, no, girl, you eat. I was just joking with him. It doesn't matter whether you eat it early or late."
Zhuiying tore off the other chicken leg and gave it to him, saying, "Dr. Hua, this is for you."
Hua Murong waved his hand, "No, no, no, I don't want chicken legs. I'm tired of eating chicken legs. I want to eat chicken butts."
Chasing Shadow, "..."
Yun Zhaoxue and Hua Murong reconfirmed the specific time for Xiao Xuance to receive treatment.
Hua Murong said, "Girl, I just took the pulse of the Xiao family boy and found that his internal organs have recovered to about 70-80%. How did you do that? Teach me!"
Yun Zhaoxue tricked her, saying, "I unintentionally obtained a bottle of holy water that can repair the internal organs, and now there's only a little left."
As he spoke, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve, which contained spiritual spring water.
Hua Murong opened the bottle cap, took a sniff, and her eyes lit up. "Good stuff."
"That's for sure. This is all I have. I plan to keep it for myself." Yun Zhaoxue snatched it back.
Hua Murong didn't believe it. "Is that really all? Are you kidding me?"
"I'm just setting you up. I can give it to you, but you have to answer one question for me. Some people say that my biological father is not Yun Xiuwen. Who else could it be?"
