Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There were many people around Yu Yunxi at this moment. She was not wearing a veil so it would be easy for people to recognize her. However, she could not care less at this moment; she only wanted to rush over to Yu Junjin at this moment. She could give up on revenge, but she absolutely would not allow Yu Junjin to get hurt.
However, at the critical moment, the sheathed sword suddenly appeared out of nowhere and struck the guard.
The guard quickly retreated in pain and roared, “Who, who ambushed me?!”
Everyone turned around and saw a carriage parked at the side. The emblem on the carriage belonged to the Prince Regent’s Residence. IT-this carriage belongs to the Prince Regent’s Residence?’
‘Then the person in the carriage is…’
When everyone recalled the rumors about Feng Yili, they felt chills running up their spines.
A cool breeze blew past at this moment, lifting the curtains of the carriage slightly. However, it was dark inside, and no one could see anything. This made them even more afraid.
Meanwhile, the guard finally reacted and kneeled on the ground. “G-greetings, Your Royal Highness the Prince Regent!”
‘Prince Regent? Then… Isn’t that… Father?’
Yu Junjin’s eyes flashed. He remembered what his mother had told him about his father’s past, and he could not help but feel a sense of anticipation.
At the same time, Feng Weigeng’s face lit up with joy. He quickly ran to the side of the carriage and began to complain, “Ninth Imperial Uncle? It’s you! Ninth Imperial Uncle, this unruly person is too despicable! He actually injured the Ferghana horse that Imperial Father gave me!”
Upon seeing this, the onlookers began to whisper among themselves.
Someone sighed. “I heard that the Prince Regent has a very good relationship with the Fifth Prince so he must dote on the Twelfth Prince as well. Does this mean he’ll help the Twelfth Prince?”
“Of course! The Twelfth Prince and the Fifth Prince share the same mother after all. However, even if they didn’t share the same mother, the Twelfth Prince is still of the royal bloodline like the Prince Regent. It’s impossible for the Prince Regent to help a commoner instead of his family member.”
Someone sighed again. “That’s right. This child is so cute, but he won’t have a good ending today.”
“The Prince Regent is ruthless. Do you think he’ll secretly…” someone said, trailing off before he made a throat-slitting gesture.
Meanwhile, Yu Junjin was standing very close to these people so he naturally heard their words.
‘Father… Will he really do that?’
Yu Junjin fidgeted his fingers, feeling uneasy. He could pretend not to care in front of his mother, but in his heart, he still yearned for a father, especially one that was a great hero. However, as he looked at the curtain of the carriage that was blown by the wind, his eyes grew dimmer and dimmer. The smile on his face also gradually vanished.
‘These people are right… Father definitely won’t help me…’
Even from a distance, Yu Yunxi could feel Yu Junjin’s mood. It was like the mother and son shared a heart. Her heart felt as though it was being gripped at this moment, making it difficult for her to breathe.
She made a move to rush over to protect Yu Junjin. He was her son, and no one was allowed to bully him.
Qian Jiao was still rational. She hurriedly stopped Yu Yunxi and said, “County Princess, that’s the Prince Regent’s carriage. If you rush over now, all your previous efforts will be in vain. Our people should be nearby. Let me go and look for them now.”
At this time, a cold voice rang from the carriage.
“Did your Imperial Brother teach you to bully people like that?”
Feng Weigeng could vaguely sense Feng Yili’s anger, and he felt uneasy. His voice softened a lot as he said, “B-but, but that unruly person hurt my horse… That… That’s a Ferghana horse…”
“If you don’t have the ability to tame it, don’t bring it out on the streets. Your Imperial Father gave you the horse, hoping that you could learn the spirit of a warrior on horseback, not for you to harm innocent people on the streets of the capital.”
The voice from the carriage grew colder and colder.
Feng Weigeng’s face already turned pale from fear and panic. However, he gritted his teeth and said, “But, but I was also injured!” “That’s because you’re not capable enough.
The Prince Regent was not soft at all toward Feng Weigeng.
Meanwhile, the onlookers were hiding their faces at this moment, trying hard not to laugh. It was a really satisfying scene. They assumed Feng Yili would side with Feng Weigeng Unexpectedly, Feng Yili did not blindly side with his family member and was very reasonable.
“Ninth Imperial Uncle…”
Feng Yili did not give Feng Weigeng to speak. He said, “You still don’t know your mistake? When you return, you’ll be punished by kneeling for four hours.”
“Why aren’t you bringing the Twelfth Prince back?”
“Y-yes,” the guard said, scrambling to his feet. He no longer cared if the
Twelfth Prince would be angry and quickly carried the latter away.
Meanwhile, Yu Junjin’s eyes lit up.
‘Mother’s right! Father isn’t bad. He’s quite a righteous person!’
Yu Yunji fidgeted his fingers again as he looked around. Suddenly, he discovered Yu Yunxi standing not far away. He was stunned. When he recovered, he wanted to run over to her. However, before he could do so, he was stopped by Feng Yili’s voice.
“Get into the carriage. Are you waiting for the Twelfth Prince to bring his guards and bring you into the palace to be punished?”
Feng Yili knew that Feng Weigeng definitely would not give up just like that. It was likely that Feng Weigeng would bring more guards with him and return to deal with Yu Junjin.
‘What?’
Yu Junjin was stunned. The little bun gritted his teeth, in a dilemma. When he saw the person in the carriage was about to get out, he was worried his mother would be discovered so he quickly said, “I, I’m coming!”
‘Junjin..
Yu Yunxi watched as the little bun climbed into Feng Yili’s carriage, feeling as though her heart was in her throat.
“County Princess, there are more and more people. Let’s retreat first and think of a way to save Little Master. We can’t afford to go against the Prince Regent head-on,” Qian Jiao persuaded.
Yu Yunxi gradually calmed down. Based on Feng Yili’s earlier actions, it did not seem like he would hurt Yu Junjin. She was only worried that Yu Junjin’s identity would be exposed.
After taking a deep breath, Yu Junjin said helplessly, “Follow the secretly.”
“Yes, County Princess.”
With the help of the coachman, Yu Junjin successfully got into the carriage. As soon as he entered the carriage, he saw three people: his father, a man dressed in an official robe, and a man who was dressed like a guard.
“Little fellow, you’re quite bold. You dare to look me in the eye,” Luo Xiuran said teasingly, amused. Then, he leaned over, intending to pinch the little bun’s cheek.
However, Yu Junjin quickly dodged to Feng Yili’s side.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ying looked at Yu Junjin warily, worried about an assassination attempt.
“Jiang Ying, don’t be nervous. He’s the child that I wanted you to find that day,” Feng Yili said to Jiang Ying before he said to Yu Junjin, “Little fellow, if it wasn’t for me today, you would’ve died miserably.”
Jiang Yin and Luo Xiuran were both shocked by Feng Yili’s words.
‘So this was the child Yili was looking for?’
So the Prince Regent was looking for this child…’
Yu Junjin pouted upon hearing Feng Yili’s words. He muttered softly, “I don’t need you to save me. I could have saved myself, okay?”
Despite his words, Yu Junjin was very happy. After all, his father had protected him. Unfortunately, his father did not know his identity.
Suddenly, Feng Yili began to cough violently, and his face and lips turned pale. His clenched hands and bulging veins showed that he was enduring great pain at this mo
Jiang Ying came over to support Feng Yili and said anxiously, “Your Royal Highness, please bear with it for a moment. Jiang Chuan has already gone to the Wei family to get the medicine.”
Yu Junjin was stunned.
‘Was Father poisoned?’
Yu Junjin quickly opened his bag and took a pill out. He looked extremely flustered as he said over and over again, “Take this, take this! You’ll be fine after eating this!”
This was something his mother had given him. His mother told him that the pill could extend one’s life and save one’s life at the critical moment..
