Chapter 888 - 889 What did you just call me"Is it related to what happened last night?" Before Mu Jin could speak, Xiao Rui asked again.
However, at this time, the voice of Meiyu could be heard from inside. "Xiao Rui, lower your voice.
"I"m sorry, mother!" Xiao Rui immediately covered his mouth and said softly.
Mu Jin turned around and looked at Xiao Rui: "Go and take care of Your mother first, I"ll tell you when we get there!"
Leaving the Jiangnan Courtyard had been part of his plan. Letting Cang Chu pretend to be him was to let him get away with it.
Furthermore, after what happened last night, the Jiangnan Courtyard could not stay there any longer. Therefore, he had to bring the Beautiful Jade Su"er and the Xiao Rui to another safe place.
Only after settling them down properly would he be able to find the location of Wei Yuanwei"s whereabouts with a peace of mind.
As for the unconscious Thousandleaf, he had already been sent back to the teahouse.
After Xiao Rui finished listening, he closed the curtain.
It wasn"t until noon that the carriage stopped in front of a tea house.
"You guys stay in the carriage, I"ll go get some tea!"
The Xiao Rui nodded, then returned to his seat.
Before Xuan Li left, he had already told Meiyu that they would be moved to a safe place.
As for the Su"er, she seemed to still be in pain from the loss of her mother, standing quietly at the side along the way. She did not say a word, as the spirit energy in her black eyes had long since disappeared.
"Su"er, do you know where we"re going?" Along the way, the two of them did not speak, but now, Xiao Rui could not help but speak to him.
Su"er glanced at Xiao Rui, then lowered his head.
Mei Yu, who was at the side, saw Su"er. She reached out her hand to stroke her head and gently said: "What"s wrong? Do you miss your mother? "
It was fine if he did not say it, but when he said it, Su"er"s eyes immediately turned red.
Su"er didn"t want Meiyu and the others to see it, so he could only turn around.
At this time, Mu Jin brought some water and some food over and pa.s.sed it over through the curtain.
When Su"er saw Mu Jin, he seemed to have found support in his heart. He opened the curtain and immediately burrowed into Mu Jin"s embrace, covered his head, and did not say a word.
Mu Jin rubbed Su"er"s little head and coaxed in a few sentences, "Wait until we arrive at the Emerald Yin Mountain, I will go find Your mother. Your mother will not die!"
"Su"er is going too!" Su"er immediately raised her head, looked at Mu Jin with reddened eyes, and said with a soft voice that had a hint of a sobbing tone.
"Stay obediently at the Emerald Yin Mountain with Aunt Meiyu and Xiao Rui. When I find mother, I"ll come and find you!"
"No, Su"er wants to go, Su"er wants to go, what if you leave and don"t come back?" Su"er began to wiggle her short legs uneasily, and pouted her lips high.
It was as if in one night, the Su"er could not leave Mu Jin.
"How could that be? You are my daughter, how can I not come back? " Mu Jin looked at Su"er with a pained expression.
"Who knows what kind of things you will encounter when you go out. Since Su"er doesn"t want to separate from you, even if it means death, it won"t work!" Su"er still refused to comply. Her dark eyes revealed all of her thoughts.
It was as if the moment something happened to Wei Yuanwei, the Su"er had exposed her weakness.
In truth, she only looked strong and didn"t need anything, but her heart was very fragile and very dependent.
After all, she was just a child, how could she have such a strong heart?
"Alright, I"ll bring you to find Your mother together, but you have to obediently listen to what I say!" Mu Jin hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
The affairs of the world were unpredictable, and he did not want to be separated from the Su"er.
Especially when the Su"er needed him.
The horse carriage continued on its way until it was night time. Then, it arrived at a village in the Emerald Yin Mountain.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Su"er felt that it was a little familiar. "This seems to be the mountain stronghold that Su"er tried to rob the other time?"
"Yes, the people in this mountain stronghold were all from my old tribe in the Eastern Chu State. After the war, they were lucky enough to survive, and then they cleared the wasteland here and lived!" Mu Jin nodded, at that time, he had already guessed that these people were most likely his subordinates that he had trained before.
Su"er had a face of sudden enlightenment. She finally understood why Mu Jin had come out safely after going in for a while.
"Then do they know my dad?" Xiao Rui was excited. His father was once a soldier, this made him very excited.
Mu Jin turned around, and lightly patted Xiao Rui"s head: "Right, they are all familiar with your father, and there are even some who are your father"s direct subordinates!"
When Xiao Rui heard this, he became even more excited. He felt that his father was extremely mighty in the past, even he himself felt that he was too.
Before even entering the village, Xiao Rui had already impatiently pulled at the beautiful jade"s hand and walked in.
At this time, Su"er held onto Mu Jin"s hand even more tightly, as if she was afraid that Mu Jin would run away.
Mu Jin looked at Su"er"s eyes that were filled with innocence and childishness and smiled inwardly. This was probably the time when she would be the most genuine Su"er.
To be relied on and trusted by one"s own daughter … this truly was a very proud feeling.
The people of the village had already received the letter from Mu Jin, so when they saw Mu Jin alighting from the carriage, they sent people out to welcome him.
Many years had pa.s.sed, but the people in the village still respected Mu Jin as their king, and they even called him Madame Mei Yu and Xiao Rui [1].
This scene, seemed to cause Mu Jin to return to the time when he was in the army camp.
As the people of the village greeted Mu Jin as "Your Highness", as well as his strict and respectful att.i.tude, Su"er also instantly felt that his father had become great in his eyes.
"We will rest in the mountain for the night. Tomorrow, we will go find the Your mother!" Yue Mingyue, Mu Jin, holding Su"er"s hand, stood on the mountainside. Looking at the continuous mountain range, listening to the gurgling of the water and the chirping of the insects, it really gave Mu Jin a kind of mind.
"Alright!" The Su"er seemed to be able to feel what Mu Jin was currently thinking in his heart.
You must be very handsome when you fight, right? "
Mu Jin turned around and looked at Su"er with a bit of surprise. His pitch-black eyes were shining with excitement: "What did you call me just now?"
Su"er turned her face away, as if she was slightly embarra.s.sed. "Call you father, sooner or later anyway!"
After Mu Jin heard it, he felt great in his heart. The haze that had been acc.u.mulating in his heart for the past few days was finally released, and he happily hugged Su"er.
Su"er felt even more embarra.s.sed than before, but she still called out obediently.
