"Yeah, he's going too," Yun Xiaojing also frowned. "It would be great if he didn't go."
He's too much of a hindrance!
Yun Changfeng looked at Yun Xiaojing, who clearly didn't like Zhan Tianye, and a light suddenly flashed in his mind.
An idea leaped into existence.
"Xiaojing, you met Young Master Yi from a distance that day. What do you think of him?" Yun Changfeng deliberately lowered his voice and asked.
Yun Xiaojing blinked his large, starry eyes. "I think Young Master Yi is great! Tall, handsome, and gentle and refined! Yes, what else? I saw a new idiom yesterday, graceful and elegant! Yes, yes, that's it!"
Yun Changfeng slapped his thigh and laughed, "You have good taste, just like your maternal grandfather!"
"Of course, I'm my maternal grandfather's grandson, so I naturally have good taste like my grandfather!" Yun Xiaojing boasted about himself and Yun Changfeng without any modesty.
He knew what his maternal grandfather meant.
It meant his maternal grandfather also fancied Young Master Yi.
And he also thought Young Master Yi was excellent.
So…
Yun Changfeng glanced at the tightly closed door not far away. Seeing that Yun Shu hadn't come out, he bent down and said kindly to Yun Xiaojing, "Xiaojing, what do you think of Prince Ye?"
Yun Xiaojing frowned. "Him? I don't think much of him. He's definitely not good enough for my mother."
"Very wise! As expected of my grandfather's treasure, you see things clearly! You're not confined by worldly views. Yes, he's not good enough for your mother! Your grandfather thinks Young Master Yi is truly excellent. Do you want to consider changing fathers?" Yun Changfeng lowered his voice even further.
This matter couldn't be rushed, and he knew that the father and son of Marquis Zhongyong were the ones in a hurry. They were too eager to marry Shu'er into the Marquis's manor.
Yun Xiaojing blinked and took a bite of a large steamed bun. "Grandfather, can Young Master Yi accept me and Xiao Li?"
This was crucial!
It wasn't enough to just like his mother; he had to genuinely like them too.
"We'll find an opportunity to ask him about this later. Since your grandfather knows you're quite satisfied with him, then your grandfather will make good plans for this matter. You're a little man now. When you go out to play today, you must keep an eye on Prince Ye. Absolutely do not let Prince Ye bully your mother, understand?" Yun Changfeng was truly a little worried.
He always felt that today's outing was a banquet of treacherous intent.
His Shu'er was so sensible. She was bullied by Prince Ye before. What if she was bullied by Prince Ye again?
He gripped the sharp saber at his waist.
Yun Xiaojing sensed the killing intent emanating from Yun Changfeng. It was a killing intent and a powerful aura that could deter a thousand armies, forged on the battlefield.
The unintentional display made Yun Xiaojing's little heart tremble, and he looked at Yun Changfeng with some fear. "Grandfather, you're not going to kill my scumbag father, are you?"
Yun Changfeng immediately reacted and quickly withdrew his killing intent, saying kindly, "Grandfather won't kill anyone. Killing is against the law in the capital. Besides, he's your father, no matter what. For your sake, I won't act! Don't worry! Don't be afraid!"
Yun Xiaojing glanced at the saber at Yun Changfeng's waist. His grandfather definitely wanted to kill his scumbag father just now!
He could feel it!
Just then, Yun Shu walked out of the room.
From afar, she saw Yun Changfeng and Yun Xiaojing whispering together.
She raised an eyebrow. Had the grandfather and grandson woken up so early to practice martial arts?
Jing Heng suddenly leaped into the air and landed in front of her.
"Should I go with my master today?" Jing Heng asked. He had a feeling that Zhan Tianye had no good intentions.
Yun Shu chuckled lightly. "Are you afraid I'll be bullied by him?"
Although she couldn't quite figure out what Zhan Tianye was thinking right now, she was very sure that Zhan Tianye wouldn't kill her.
"Yes," Jing Heng nodded.
"He can't kill me, and besides, in front of Xiaojing and the others, he wouldn't dare to lay a hand on me," Yun Shu said with a smile.
Jing Heng said nothing further.
Not far away, Yun Changfeng and Yun Xiaojing saw Yun Shu come out and immediately walked towards her.
The more Yun Changfeng looked at Yun Shu, the more proud he felt.
When Marquis Zhongyong left, he had secretly told him that no woman in the capital could compare to Shu'er. He urged him to name his terms as soon as possible, even if it meant emptying the Marquis Zhongyong's manor, to marry Shu'er to Young Master Yi.
Hmph! If Prince Ye doesn't cherish her, countless others will want to pamper Shu'er like a treasure!
Yun Changfeng's heart was extremely complicated at this moment.
No, no, he absolutely had to find an opportunity to meet Prince Ye!
…
An hour later.
Yun Shu and Yun Xiaojing left the city first.
They and Zhan Tianye went on separate paths.
About a kilometer outside the city, two carriages stopped, one behind the other.
Zhan Xiaoli and Gu Xiaofeng jumped off the carriage and ran towards the front carriage, eagerly jumping onto it.
Once inside the carriage, they sweetly called out to Yun Shu, "Mother!"
Yun Shu looked at the two of them, her beautiful eyes full of tenderness. "Xiao Li, Xiaofeng, come, let Mother hug you."
Zhan Xiaoli and Gu Xiaofeng immediately hugged Yun Shu.
Yun Xiaojing also opened his arms to hug them. "I want a hug too!"
The three children and one adult embraced together.
The carriage was instantly enveloped in the warmth of family affection.
In stark contrast was the carriage behind.
Zhan Tianye sat alone in his carriage. His hearing had always been excellent, and the two carriages were very close. With his internal strength and hearing, he could completely hear what they were saying in that carriage.
Although he couldn't see, he could imagine the scene.
His dark eyes were unfathomable.
A hint of jealousy flickered within them.
Had they forgotten that there was still him?
Without him, would they even exist?
And Yun Shu…
That gentle voice, so soft it could melt bones, was one he had never heard before.
For a moment, the aura around him grew even colder.
Even Qiu Lu, who was sitting outside the carriage, sensed something.
He touched his nose.
He exchanged a glance with the coachman beside him.
That…
A tacit understanding emerged.
Why did it feel like His Highness was a bit pitifully alone?
Looking at the carriage inside, the continuous laughter, just listening to it seemed to convey that warmth.
"Set off."
A command as cold as ice shards.
Qiu Lu and the coachman nodded simultaneously.
That's right.
His Highness seemed a little jealous!
…
About half an hour later.
The carriage entered a dense forest.
Without someone familiar with the path, one would surely get lost.
Soon.
They saw a stretch of grassland.
The carriage stopped.
The three little ones, unable to wait any longer, jumped off the carriage the moment it stopped.
Accompanied by the children's innocent exclamations of "Wow!"
The grassland wasn't just green; vibrant colorful flowers could be seen everywhere.
The fragrance of flowers filled the air.
Butterflies danced.
Not far away, there was also a small waterfall.
The sound of the spring water, accompanied by the chirping of insects and birds, made one feel the serenity of peaceful times.
Yun Shu also got out of the carriage.
She glanced at the three little ones who had already run into the grass. xxs壹贰
Suddenly, she felt a burning gaze.
