Princess Comes, Prince Obeys - C62
“This old one is untalented, I’ve let the wangfei down!” The butler had a benevolent look on his face as he chuckled and said.
Qi Wan County was wondering just now, who exactly was this butler? How could he be so capable? Only now did Qi Hui County suddenly feel that after coming to the Prince’s Mansion for so long, this butler was so unfamiliar to him, and he actually didn’t even know his name.
Perhaps, he didn’t even understand the entire Duke Palaces. There were hidden dragons and crouching tigers within, so he couldn’t underestimate them.
“Where? But, housekeeper, you surprise me. ” “It seems that I have to properly adjust the mansion in the future. I have to find a few secret guards to protect the prince.” When the butler mentioned it, she just ignored it. She didn’t expect it to happen today.
“They’re all flowery martial arts, aren’t they worth mentioning compared to you, Consort Wang?” Did the housekeeper’s calm face give Qi Wanliang a sense of peace? It seemed to have something to do with this man who was in his forties and had an extraordinary bearing.
“The butler is serious!” “What is your name, butler?” Qi Wan County curiously asked. Her eyes were filled with desire, longing for the butler to give her a satisfactory answer.
“This old man’s cheap name is not worth mentioning.” The steward laughed and said.
It seemed that the steward still wanted to continue to argue with her. Qi Lan raised her eyebrows and glared at the steward with a serious expression. “What if I still want to know?”
“I wonder if Royal Concubine has heard of Nangong Yu?” The steward said casually.
“The only son of the Nan Jiang Family that has shocked the martial arts world for twenty years? Nangong Yu? ” Qi Wan County looked at this middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing with a surprised expression.
“That’s right!” “That’s me!” The steward’s deep eyes shone with a desolate light, as if speaking of the wise reminded him of a past he could not bear to look back on. The former Nangong Family was just like the former Qi Family. They thought that they would be able to get away with it without any conflicts between the imperial government. Who would have thought that they would still end up doing the same thing?
“You are the number one expert of the martial arts world, Nangong Yu?” Qi Wan County’s eyes were wide open in disbelief.
The steward in front of him was the number one expert from twenty years ago? The Jiang-Nan Nangong family was like a martial arts mythology. The old manor lord Nangong Bo had unparalleled kung fu skills, standing alone in the world. He was a very straightforward person and had great standing and prestige in the martial arts world.
He was truly afraid that his son would fall out of his grasp. With his mouth filled with fear, it was almost as if he was picking stars for him or the moon for him. Villa Master Nangong’s son was Nangong Yu.
Rumor has it that Nangong Yu is a martial arts genius that only appears once in a hundred years. Her martial arts intelligence is amongst the best, but I wonder why the Nangong Family in front of me would disappear in a single night?” Afterwards, Nangong Yu had also disappeared without a trace. Was she still alive or dead?
Nangong Yu was a Martial Senior that he had always admired and respected. From a young age until now, Qi Wanli had listened to his story and had grown up, hoping to have the same martial arts attainments as him.
“I’m sorry! I’m a little tired today, so I’ll take my leave first! ” After the butler finished speaking, he left without waiting for Qi Wan County’s reply. Seeing his strange expression and hurried steps, Qi Wanli could feel that something was going on in his heart, but he just didn’t want others to know about it.
Returning to the inner hall room and lying on the bed, Qi Wan’s mind was filled with thoughts of the housekeeper, Nangong Yu? He did not understand why a young master of the Nangong family would become the steward of the Regent, Yu Lingjing.
Of course, being a butler for the Regent King would not make Nangong Yu feel wronged. However, compared to the tyrannical Young Villa Master, the steward of the Regent’s Mansion was slightly inferior.
He thought about how Qi Wanxian had fallen asleep and had had a terrifying dream. She dreamed of a boy about her age, covered in blood.
Qi Wan County shook him as he yelled, “Wake up!” Wake up! ” But the boy had a pulse and a breath, and he was in a coma. The more he refused to wake up, the more anxious Qi Dian became, until Qi Dian could not even see his face, and could only shout, “Wake up!” Wake up! ”
Inside the room, Yu Lingjing looked at his wife, who was sweating profusely. He reached out a hand to wipe away the cold sweat, only to discover that she was sweating profusely. It seemed that her wife had suffered from the cold, so she brought a basin of hot water and used a towel to cover her forehead. Qi Lan shook her forehead and shouted, “Wake up! Wake up! ”
“My wife!” “My wife!” Yu Ling Jing held his wife’s hand and called out. At this time, Qi Lun slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Yu Ling Jing holding her hand, she asked, “What happened to me?”
Yu Ling Jing looked at his wife’s pale face and cracked lips. Just a moment ago, he was still talking nonsense and shouting, “Wake up!” Wake up. ”
“I am not sick. This is not nonsense. This is a scene from my dream.” She believed that Yu Ling Jing definitely knew about the steward Nangong Yu’s matters. She looked at him with eyes that were filled with hunger and thirst, “Husband, husband, master, your highness, your highness, I beg of you, please tell me one thing, I hope you will tell me the truth, okay?”
Yu Lingjing had never seen his wife so flustered. It had been so long since they had married, and it was the first time his wife had begged him. He nodded without thinking too much about it.
“Your Highness, I would like to know about the butler, Nangong Yu?” Qi Wanshi looked at Yu Ling Scenic Spot and said with an excited expression.
Yu Lingjing looked at her in astonishment. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t think of what her wife wanted to ask her. She begged him to tell her about Nangong Yu? It was just that so much time had passed, why would his wife mention it now? Yu Lingjing stood up with an awkward expression. He walked to the side of the table and sighed. He didn’t know how to begin. After all, this was the steward, as well as his master’s secret.
“Hubby!” Will you please tell me? ” As he was about to get out of bed, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
“My wife!” What are you doing? ” When Yu Lingjing heard the sound of Qi Wan landing on the ground, he quickly turned around and walked to Qi Wan County’s side.
“Hubby!” Just tell me? ” Qi Wan County did not care about the matter of her falling to the ground, and continued to ask Nangong Yu about it.
Yu Lingjing nodded helplessly.
“The Nan Gong Family is the same as your Qi Family, they were originally a martial arts family. Twenty years ago, during an incident, the Nan Gong Family was framed and accused of being involved in a Royal Family strife, and the current Empress’s father, Shangguan Tong, bribed a whole country’s assassin and the family was massacred overnight. Nangong Yu ran away from the Nan Gong Family the day before the Nan Gong Family was exterminated due to a dispute with her father. But he never would have thought that running away from home this time would end up becoming his and his family’s eternal farewell, with Yin and Yang being separated! ”
When Yu Lingjing said this, his eyes became moist. He once thought that his mufei had passed away, and there was no one in this world worth crying over, until he met his master. He couldn’t bear to open his Master’s wounds again.
“And then?” Qi Wanshi’s eyes were also filled with tears, but he couldn’t help but ask …
“After that, Nangong Yu used alcohol to dispel her worries and lived on the streets. One day, she was almost beaten to death by a few beggars. It was my uncle who saved him and helped him regain his confidence. After my mother passed away, my uncle entrusted me to Nangong Yu. He taught me martial arts and taught me how to read and write.
“So that’s how it is?” Qi Dian finally understood and seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Yu Ling Jing with a puzzled expression and asked, “Could it be that he never thought of taking revenge?”
“Revenge?” How could he take revenge? The Emperor’s father-in-law, the current Empress’s father? It’s not like he doesn’t want to take revenge, but sometimes people can’t live with hatred. ” Yu Ling Jing said indifferently, these words seemed to be said for Qi Wan County to hear.
“Oh? I’m tired, so I want to rest early. ” While saying this, Qi Wanshi turned his head. She didn’t want to continue this topic with Yu Ling Jing, perhaps the difference between people was the difference between beliefs.
Perhaps the most important thing for the housekeeper was to protect the talent he had to protect while alive, but to him, it was revenge. As for revenge, no one could stop it.
Yu Lingjing didn’t say anything more. Seeing the strange look on Qi and Tong Prefecture’s face today, it must have been the steward who said something to her. His master had been hiding his worries in his heart for so many years. Why was it like this today?
He had never allowed himself to call him Master because he did not want to recall everything about Nangong Yu. He wanted to forget everything about the Nangong Family, and wanted to avoid it, so he only wanted to be a housekeeper, a housekeeper with no name or background.
Perhaps only by living as lowly as a servant could he feel better. Thinking of this, Yu Lingjing felt an incomparable heartache, but there was nothing he could do. His master could never let anyone into his heart, so he wouldn’t let anyone feel sad for him. He wished that he could continue living his numb life like this, so the only thing he could do was to fulfill his wish.
It was unknown how much time had passed, or how many years had passed. He only wanted to forget the past and start over again, the dead and the living to have a hard time?
If he hadn’t run away from home that year to argue with his father, or if he had also died in that annihilation, his conscience might have felt better.
He hated himself for not being able to take revenge, but for him, it might be harder than death. He had been asked by others to protect Yu Ling Jing for the rest of his life.
Since that was the case, could he only live on in this world? Even if he was despised by the world, being hated by his loved ones who had once died in vain wouldn’t be able to change his original intentions.
Tonight’s starry sky was peaceful and peaceful. It was the same feeling Nangong Yu had at this moment.
