Chapter 229 Scared Speechless

Because the scumbag father isn't so easily turned into scum!

Yun Changfeng was a little disappointed, it seemed finding that bastard wouldn't be easy.

He picked up Yun Xiao Jing and returned to Yun Shu.

Seeing them return, Yun Shu motioned for them to come over for breakfast.

Yun Changfeng's eyes lit up.

After only a few bites, he was ready to leave. "I'm going to the yamen to check on Yun De Zhi, and I might even have to go to the palace. You don't need to wait for me for lunch or dinner today."

As he was leaving, he patted Yun Xiao Jing's head. "Xiao Jing, you're so good! Wait until Grandpa gets back, he'll teach you martial arts!"

"Okay!" Yun Xiao Jing readily agreed.

When Mother taught him martial arts, she was very strict.

But what Grandpa taught him, he already knew, so it was easy for him to practice.

Yun Changfeng glanced at Yun Shu in the room, then at Yun Xiao Jing.

They were both people he would cherish with his life!

For their sake, he had to protect them with all his might!

And he'd better find that bastard!

With a heart in turmoil, Yun Changfeng left the General's mansion, filled with melancholy.

Not long after.

Jing Heng returned from his meeting with Ruan Xi.

"Master, we've found some information," Jing Heng said.

Yun Shu glanced back at Yu Le. "Take Xiao Jing to play in the courtyard."

"Yes, Miss."

Yun Xiao Jing's eyes darted around slyly.

Mother had a secret!

And it might even be related to him!

But he was a good boy, and he would do as his mother told him.

Once the room was empty, Jing Heng reported, "According to the information gathered, that child was raised by Yun Yue Yin from a young age and was kept extremely hidden. If we hadn't returned to the capital, there would likely be no news of her."

"Raised from a young age?" Yun Shu lightly tapped the table with one hand.

A hint of cold light flickered in her eyes.

"Yun Yue Yin was summoned to the Regent's mansion today," Jing Heng added.

Yun Shu hummed. "Gu Xiao Feng is very smart. What happened yesterday will make him wary of the Regent. The Regent summoning Yun Yue Yin is likely to have her appease Gu Xiao Feng. If I'm not mistaken, the Regent and Yun Yue Yin have already concocted a lie to deceive Gu Xiao Feng."

"If Gu Xiao Feng is Master's son, then he absolutely cannot be kept by their side," Jing Heng said gravely.

Yun Shu nodded. "You're right."

"There's one more thing. Zhan Qian Er's tendons were severed by Master, rendering her crippled. She was discovered and sent back to Prince Rao's mansion." Jing Heng reported.

Hearing Zhan Qian Er's name, Yun Shu's expression grew cold. "That pervert should have been crippled long ago."

"Should we cripple the old pervert again?" Jing Heng narrowed his eyes and asked concisely.

Yun Shu's thoughts stirred. "Prince Rao has been quite fond of kidnapping children recently?"

Ever since she became a mother, she absolutely couldn't stand people bullying children.

It would be a service to the people.

"Yes."

"Using the Regent's name, sever his tendons. Don't sever his leg tendons. Leave his legs so he can still go to the palace and file a complaint with the Emperor," Yun Shu commanded directly.

"Understood!"

Jing Heng immediately went to prepare.

Outside the room door, he began to sharpen his blade.

Yun Xiao Jing, playing in the courtyard, saw Jing Heng sharpening his knife and immediately guessed that Uncle Jing Heng had a mission!

Who had offended Mother?

Suddenly.

A small snake appeared before Yun Xiao Jing.

"Ah! A snake!"

Yu Le jumped up in fright, her face pale with terror, staring at the snake slithering on the ground.

What's more, she saw the snake crawl onto Yun Xiao Jing's foot.

She rushed to grab it.

The next moment.

Yu Le was stunned.

Yun Xiao Jing picked up the snake.

And even said to her, "Don't be afraid! It's very well-behaved!"

Yu Le swallowed hard, a cold sweat breaking out on her forehead. She looked back at Jing Heng by the door. He remained motionless, not even a glance cast her way.

This...

Was she just too timid?

How could Xiao Jing not be afraid of the snake at all?

Yun Xiao Jing stroked the little snake. "See? It doesn't bite."

Yu Le still looked terrified. She took a few glances and quickly averted her eyes. She was most afraid of snakes!

Yun Shu walked out of the room and looked at Yun Xiao Jing. "Don't play with snakes when there are other people around."

Look how scared poor Yu Le was!

Yun Xiao Jing put the snake down.

The little snake slithered into the grass nearby.

Yu Le watched, trembling.

A' Cha, who had just emerged from the room not far away, didn't know what had just happened. Seeing Yu Le's pale face, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Yu Le smiled weakly and shook her head. "Ah, nothing, nothing." xxs壹贰

It was just a little snake.

Xiao Jing wasn't even afraid of snakes, and judging by Miss's words, Xiao Jing usually played with snakes too!

Yun Shu looked at the terrified Yu Le and gave Yun Xiao Jing another stern look.

Yun Xiao Jing spread his little hands. "Mother, where I am, there are always all sorts of little things popping up?"

Sometimes bats would come to play with him.

He could even ride a tiger and gallop through the forest!

Yun Shu's heart stirred. It seemed she needed to prepare Yu Le and A' Cha in advance, to let them understand Xiao Jing's uniqueness.

...

Regent's Mansion.

In front of the mansion.

Lu Hao was about to get into his carriage to leave, but he was stopped.

"Divine Doctor Lu, please wait a moment." Yun Yue Yin stopped Lu Hao, her tone anxious.

She had just calmed Gu Xiao Feng and seeing that he no longer suspected the Regent, she felt relieved and hurried out to chase after Lu Hao.

"Is something the matter?" Lu Hao looked at Yun Yue Yin.

He felt a pang of pity.

He knew something of the enmity between Miss Yun and Yun Shu.

Thinking that Miss Yun was still completely unaware of Yun Shu's true power and was completely in the dark, he felt truly sorrowful for her.

Wearing a straw hat meant there was a reaction on her face.

The consequence of overestimating oneself.

Just like the missing piece of flesh from his leg.

It served as a reminder to himself.

He needed to actively curry favor with Yun Shu.

Yun Yue Yin didn't know why Divine Doctor Lu was looking at her with such an indescribable gaze.

This wasn't the time to ponder such things. She spoke anxiously, "Divine Doctor Lu, my face has developed some new problems. Can you examine it for me?"

Lu Hao thought about it. It seemed he could still earn some silver.

This silver could be used to show gratitude to Yun Shu and curry favor. So he nodded, "Alright."

Seeing Lu Hao agree, Yun Yue Yin's anxious heart settled.

Soon, two carriages stopped at the Yun Mansion.

After entering the Yun Mansion and returning to the room, Yun Yue Yin immediately took off her straw hat.

She revealed her face to Lu Hao.

"Divine Doctor Lu, please look."

Lu Hao was mentally prepared, but he was still startled. The last time he saw this face, he had even harbored a little thought. But now, all of that was gone!

It was hideous!

Seeing Lu Hao's shock, Yun Yue Yin bit her lip, her eyes red with grievance. "A few days ago, for some reason, red bumps appeared on my face. A doctor came and prescribed medicine. After applying it this morning, it turned into this! Divine Doctor Lu, please heal me quickly!"
