Mistress of the Mysterious Inn - C223

However, the current situation did not allow the Emperor to hold Ling Chaofeng accountable. The mountain was collapsing quickly, and more and more people disappeared from in front of their eyes.

When Siyan turned around and wanted to pull her sister back, her feet slipped. Luckily, she was supported by the Emperor, so she took the opportunity to hand his wife to the guard in front of him and reached out her hand to his sister. Unexpectedly, a piece of the mountain collapsed and mud surged down, as if it was a calamity.

“Your Majesty …” Siyan cried out in shock as she watched the Emperor, his sister and the guards beside them being washed away.

Siyan had lost all hope. At this moment, she had even forgotten about her daughter who was waiting for her at the palace. She only thought that if anything happened to the Emperor, she wouldn’t be able to live by herself.

The emperor held his sister’s hand as the two of them were swept down by the mud avalanche. This was a calamity with almost no chance of survival.

Perhaps it was because they did not intend to severely punish the mortals, but only wanted to scare them. Moreover, they did not reach a very high place, and there was still a river flowing down the mountain. After a moment of darkness, their bodies finally stopped.

After an unknown period of time, the emperor weakly opened his eyes, his vision a blur, but his hands were still holding tightly onto his sister, while First Princess lay at his side, unconscious.

“Sister …” The Emperor opened his mouth and coughed violently, spitting out a mouthful of muddy water.

He struggled to turn over and crawl towards his sister, but the Emperor’s leg seemed to have been broken.

At this moment, a lot of people suddenly rushed towards him. The black mass of people caused the emperor to feel dizzy, and to him, it was as if they were a little kid that came to capture him. The moment his consciousness dissipated, he saw a familiar face, Ling Chaofeng.

A wave of anger surged forth, but it was too late for the heavily injured to do anything.

When the Xiaowan and the Aunt Zhang saw that the river had turned muddy, they realized that something had happened to the mountain. Her heart was beating quickly, and with one hand on her stomach, she muttered to herself that the wind would not be able to blow, and her husband would not abandon her.

“Xiao’er, it’s cold outside, go in and rest. You can’t be too worried.” Seeing that the Xiaowan’s complexion did not look good, she said calmly, “If something really happens, we can only listen to the heavens’ will. There is no news of anything happening right now, so let’s not scare ourselves.”

Returning to the tent, Aunt Zhang draped a quilt over her body. Xiaowan shook her head: “Aunt, I’m not cold.

Aunt Zhang did not have the experience to give birth to children, so she did not understand these feelings. However, since the child said that she was not cold, she did not force him.

He did not know how to distract her attention, so he suddenly said: “Evening, have you ever been curious about the history of me and your uncle?”

Xiaowan was stunned, then she said: “My name is Liang Rujun, is that nice to listen to? “After I married your uncle, he used his surname to call me that. Gradually, I forgot that my surname was originally Liang.”

Listening to her wife narrate her life, Xiaowan opened her eyes wide in shock. It was hard to imagine that someone who was so gentle and amiable, who looked after and doted on her like his own mother, actually had such a deep relationship with the imperial government and imperial family, and Liang Prefecture that was thousands of miles away.

“Aunt, did you lie to me?” As expected, Xiaowan did not dare to believe it.

“It’s up to you whether you want to believe it or not. It’s fine to just be a joke.” The Aunt Zhang laughed, “However, in this life, I will never be able to think of a good thing waiting for you. Don’t think that the difficulty you are facing will be the end of your life.”

Just as she finished speaking, a voice came from outside the door. Xiaowan had sharp ears, she had long engraved her husband’s every move into her heart, and upon hearing the footsteps, she felt that Ling Chaofeng had come.

She abandoned her sister-in-law and rushed out of the tent. Sure enough, a muddy man was standing there, talking to the guards.

“Hubby!” Xiaowan was elated, and immediately rushed towards him.

Ling Chaofeng’s body was covered in mud. He initially did not dare to open his arms, but seeing his wife pouncing towards him, he had no choice but to catch her. The mud all over his body rubbed onto her body.

He knew that this kind of thought was very selfish. It did not care about righteousness, but when he saw that the hill opposite him had fallen, his only thought was to search for the Xiaowan in the crowd. Fortunately, the Emperor did not bring her in.

“Hubby …” Xiaowan was also at peace.

“Later, I got into trouble.” However, Ling Chaofeng smiled and kissed her forehead, saying, “If I get caught by the emperor, what will you do?”

Xiaowan looked up at him blankly. “You’ve caused trouble?”

“What a disaster. Wait for me here tonight. The road in the mountain is not easy, so I can’t bring you in.” Ling Chaofeng said, “When the Emperor, First Princess and the others are out of danger, I will naturally come out.”

“Your Majesty …” Something has happened? ” Xiaowan immediately became nervous.

“Something big has happened. Stay here and wait for news. I’ll come visit you every day.” Ling Chaofeng said, “How long is it peaceful inside? Can I bring you over to take a look?”

Xiaowan hurriedly said, “Don’t worry about me. There’s Aunt accompanying me. Husband, no matter what, don’t let the empress be sad. He’s such a good person.”

“I promise you, but I don’t know what the result will be.” Ling Chaofeng was extremely calm as he instructed the Xiaowan, “I heard from those guards that the General Wei is going to handle some errands for the Emperor, and should be arriving tomorrow. After he arrives, please take a detour around the mountain and enter.”

Xiaowan took note of this. After Ling Chaofeng entrusted the Xiaowan to Aunt Zhang, he brought the imperial physicians and all the medicinal ingredients that had been left in the camp to enter the mountain again.

As for what had happened in the mountain, Hubby had no time to explain in detail. However, Xiaowan and Aunt looked at the muddy water and could not see it clear.

“It seems,” said his aunt, “that Chao Feng deliberately led the Emperor here.”

Naturally, the Xiaowan looked at her husband wholeheartedly and muttered, “That was also something that the Emperor volunteered to do. As long as he doesn’t come, everything will be fine.”

Aunt Zhang laughed in displeasure. “Accompanying a monarch is like accompanying a tiger, foolish child.”

Deep in the mountains, the emperor woke up to find himself lying in a strange place. He turned his face to the side slightly and a teary face appeared in front of him. He moved his lips and said, “Yan’er …”

The Queen trembled all over and immediately ordered the imperial physicians to come and see. The emperor was surrounded by a group of people, and after a while they dispersed, Siyan returned to his side and cried on the bed.

“I’m still alive, what are you crying for?” The Emperor caressed her head, saving her from a calamity, causing him to be filled with emotion. “But, am I right? I’ve died once.”

His heart tightened as he hurriedly asked, “Yan’Er, where’s your royal sister?”

Siyan sobbed, “Sister Huang is fine. She woke up earlier than you did, and was even able to stand up and walk around.”

“She was so powerful, I remember she fainted.”

Siyan said: “The imperial physician said that royal sister fainted from the very beginning and didn’t eat much muddy water, but I’m afraid the emperor ate a lot, for the next few days it’s very important, if there are any other symptoms, it’s going to be troublesome. Listen to me, don’t move about, don’t worry about other things, and take good care of yourself, okay? ”

The emperor closed his eyes. “Naturally, I want to live as well.”

He then asked the others how they were faring, but he didn’t expect that they had all been rescued. It was truly fortunate that their injuries were severe.

“Heaven bless you.” Xiang Run said, “From now on, when we go to Chuanyu, we will pay respects to heaven and earth.”

“We’re not going to the Chuanyu. When big brother comes, tell him that we’re not going anymore. I don’t care if he goes back or not.” Siyan said, “I want you to go back to the capital to recuperate.”

Xiang Run looked at his wife, only to see that Siyan’s gaze was resolute, as he said unwaveringly: “Listen to me.”

Although the Emperor was not convinced, he did not want to die right now. There was no point in wasting time on such things. The most important thing was to concentrate on waiting for his body to recover.

“Where’s Ling Chaofeng?” When he asked this question, the Emperor was slightly angered.

“Cleaning up the mud at the foot of the mountain, we are already on another mountain. This place is covered in lush greenery, there is absolutely no danger of the mud avalanche here.” Siyan said, and then she added, “Furthermore, the Manager Ling seems to be fine, I don’t know why he was provoked and said that he is missing, I’m afraid this matter will have to wait for the Emperor to ask about it.”

The Emperor closed his eyes and said gravely, “He has great courage.”

Siyan said softly, “But did Your Majesty see that? That entire mountain was bald.”

The emperor opened his eyes and looked at his wife. “He wants me to come and have a look myself?”

Dusk gradually descended. The emperor had a slight fever and did not have any major symptoms, but no one dared to relax. They had to observe for a few days before they could relax.

The way Chuanyu had suddenly become like this, no one could have imagined that the Queen would be sitting by herself by the fire, roasting the flames. Looking at the flames, they couldn’t help but laugh.

His husband’s life and experience began to get richer and richer. He would no longer be obsessed with the Emperor’s achievements. He would be able to explore his own world.

First Princess suddenly walked over from behind and sat down beside the empress. She, too, had a slim chance of survival, but he was still full of spirit, which was quite amazing.

“Why isn’t Imperial Sis taking a good rest?” Siyan said worriedly, “You are injured too.”

“I’m fine, I just want to ask …” The First Princess wanted to say something, but hesitated, “Did you deliver the news to the capital?”

“Ling Chaofeng said he was sending you off.” Siyan said.

“Oh.” First Princess answered simply. He lowered his head, picked up a branch, and lightly fiddled with the fire.

In the camp outside the mountain, Xiaowan was delivering food to the guards. They thanked him and requested him to rest early.

She walked back with her coat draped over her shoulders and stood in front of her tent, looking at the pitch black mountains. She had discussed this with her aunt earlier, and guessed what Ling Chaofeng meant by “trouble”.

“The Emperor won’t.” Xiaowan continued to mutter under her breath, “It definitely won’t happen, Your Majesty.”
