Chapter 297 You should focus on being a good wife and mother!
"If you come with us, what will happen to Yun Zhaoyao?"
Xuan Yuan asked again. He had heard that in recent days, Qi Yun and Bai Qing's courts had been in chaos at the same time. As for the details, he was not in the mood to inquire. Besides, he had sent his subordinates to do work, and there was no spare people to pay attention to those matters.
However, Hua Buyu and that boy had a close relationship after all, having known each other for many years. Although he verbally expressed his disdain for this absurd and eccentric woman, he knew in his heart that Hua Buyu had suffered a lot back then. He originally wanted to find an opportunity to teach Yun Kuang a lesson and vent his anger for Hua Buyu, but it seems that he will not have the chance now.
On the other hand, he could also see Yun Zhaoyao's persistence and infatuation. Moreover, that guy was quite strong. If the time was right, Yun Zhaoyao would definitely make a name for himself. He felt at ease entrusting Hua Buyu to him.
Hua Buyu twitched her lips and simply sat on the ground, refusing to get up.
"Hey! Brother, we're discussing our sea voyage right now, why are you bringing this up?"
"Aren't you afraid that if you leave with us, you'll never see Yun Zhaoyao again in this lifetime?"
Hua Buyu choked for a moment, her eyes flickered, and she couldn't help but recall that crazy day and night, and that fair and pure young face.
"If I can't see him, I can't see him! I've only met that brat by chance. I've helped him enough behind the scenes over the years. I don't want to see him now. Xuan Yuan, don't worry. I, Hua Buyu, have no ties in the four kingdoms. The only thing I can't give up is gold and silver."
Then, she raised her eyebrows and said with a sly smile, "You just said that you would give me all your property. If we come back alive in the future, will your words still stand?"
Xuan Yuan: "..."
He reached out and tapped Hua Buyu on the head. "If I bring Yan'er back in the future, my assets will definitely be squandered by Yan'er. What does it have to do with you?"
"Damn it! You cold-blooded, heartless bastard!"
Xuan Yuan: "..."
Xin Moling pushed open the door and saw this scene. "Hua Buyu, what are you doing sitting on the ground? Aren't you cold?"
She reluctantly stood up. "Xin Moling, weren't you sleeping?"
He snapped out of his daze and hurriedly explained, "I sent a letter to His Majesty a few days ago. He already knows the whole story. When he heard that we were going to sail to Gu Cang, he specially ordered people to transport a lot of rare treasures. He hopes that we can successfully reach that country in the future. Even if we can exchange the treasures for Yan'er, it would be a good thing."
"Why didn't you say so earlier? Xuan Yuan has a lot of gold and silver treasures, and that Night Emperor, I've heard that the Night Lan Imperial Palace has countless rare treasures. How about I go into the palace later and try to trick Ye Wumian?"
"..."
"..."
"Oh, right, there's one more thing. With working day and night, the ship can be completed three days ahead of schedule."
"Big brother, are you serious?"
Xin Moling nodded, "Yes, it's ten days earlier than originally planned. The sooner we set off, the sooner we can find Yan'er."
"This is wonderful!" Hua Buyu clapped her hands, appearing extremely happy and excited.
"Are you going too?"
"Xin Moling, the way you're looking at me makes it seem like you really don't want me to go with you guys."
"That's not what I meant. After all, you're a woman, and I'm afraid your body won't be able to handle the rocking and rolling on the ship."
"What's wrong with women? You're making it a gender-versus-gender conflict? I'm going anyway. Look, Yan Yan can stand it, Shui Yi can stand it, why can't I?"
The sudden mention of Shui Yi caused Xin Moling's face to darken, leaving her speechless.
"I...I didn't mean to!"
Hey! Everyone's here!
At this moment, Feng Qingyang walked in gracefully from outside the door, a faint smile on her face.
“Ah Yuan, your elder brother said that he is delighted that the giant ship is about to be completed and has invited everyone to the palace for a gathering tomorrow night to discuss the departure in detail.”
"When did I acknowledge him? Watch your mouth. Where is Xie Cangming?"
"Him? He went to the palace early this morning, saying he wanted to check the location of the 'fetal spirit bed' in Consort Yao's palace."
……
……
……
Crows flew overhead at the same time for all three of them. Was Xie Cangming out of his mind?
The following evening, the night was still and the winter wind was biting, stinging one's cheeks.
The group arrived at the Yelan Imperial Palace as scheduled. Xuan Yuan originally did not want to go, but thinking about the unknown road ahead, he felt he should say a few words to Ye Wumian, so he did not refuse.
"Come on, Ruoyu, be careful."
Ye Wumian carefully helped Yao Ruoyu sit down at the table. He was still wearing a blood-red robe, but he was not as lazy and unruly as before. His clothes were neatly arranged, and his red hair was tied up with a golden crown. He looked energetic and refreshed.
From that day on, Yao Ruoyu was always by his side. Except for necessary court sessions, he wouldn't let her out of his sight even for a moment while eating or sleeping.
In the vast palace, beneath the high platform, several people sat on either side. Only Xuan Yuan and Xin Moling had a cold and solemn expression, while the others were relaxed and at ease. Xie Cangming was drinking by himself, while Hua Buyu was inquiring about the recent gossip of the four kingdoms with Feng Qingyang.
"Cough cough!"
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Ye Wumian gradually became restless and casually started a conversation.
"Um... Grand Preceptor Xie, are you sure you want to depart the day after tomorrow?"
Xie Cangming paused slightly, glanced at the two people opposite him, and said with a faint smile, "The day after tomorrow is the latest, otherwise, some people may have to sail that ship out of the Minghai Sea on their own."
"Is Grand Preceptor Xie confident that he can reach the Ancient Cang Kingdom?"
"Hold on? Heh~"
He smiled meaningfully, “Whether I am confident or not, I do not know, but... if they arrive at Gu Cang without my presence, they will definitely not be able to enter the city.”
"Oh? What makes you say that, Grand Preceptor Xie?"
She slowly lifted a lock of snow-white hair with her slender fingers and tossed it towards the crowd.
"With my master's extraordinary hair color, it is a pass token. Even if the Ancient Cang Emperor himself came, he could not stop me in the slightest."
Upon hearing this, Ye Wumian raised his hand and stroked his chin, "With your white hair, you think you can enter the Ancient Cang?"
"Exactly."
"So, according to Grand Preceptor Xie, my unusual red hair is allowed to enter? Come to think of it, I've never traveled far from home..."
Ye Wumian licked his lips, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and began to take an interest in something unknown.
Xie Cangming was speechless after hearing this. He twitched the corner of his mouth and then scoffed, "My hair is naturally like this. How can your red hair, which is caused by a deadly poison attacking your meridians, be compared with mine? Besides, there is no red-haired clan in Gu Cang. You should just focus on being a good wife and mother!"
Sleepless Night: "..."
His face instantly fell, as if he was extremely angry, but since he was the Imperial Preceptor of Yuanqi, he was somewhat helpless...
Hua Buyu, always eager for a good show, sat down and said coolly, "Oh! I heard that the Night Emperor kills people every day. I've been in and out of the palace for a month, and I haven't seen you wield a knife. Could it be that the rumors are wrong?"
