Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 813: Chapter 814 He Hates...

After traveling for so many days, everyone was a bit tired, and since they had brought a lot of things on their carriage, it did seem better to settle down in their new home first.

Thinking this way, An Jing also did not say anything further.

What An Jing did not expect was that on the second day, ten miles away from the Imperial Capital, someone came to receive them.

Among those who came were two people with whom An Jing was very familiar, namely Wang Youbao and Li Wuyu.

Additionally, there was a Deputy General and two squads of soldiers.

”Youbao, Wuyu, what is this...” Gong Juese was riding a horse, and upon seeing the scene before her, was somewhat puzzled.

Gong Jue Chen was also riding a horse, and upon seeing the gathering, the light in his peach blossom eyes dimmed slightly, then returned to normal so quickly that it was nearly impossible to catch his disconcertment.

Meng Lanqing was riding a horse as well, and he knew the reason for this spectacle, but he remained silent.

Upon seeing the arrangement blocking the way, Meng Zhuqing stopped the carriage and did not continue to drive it forward.

Wang Youbao and the others did not speak to Gong Juese, but all kneeled down with extreme respect towards the carriage, saluting, ”Greetings to Prince Yi and Princess Yi, the Emperor has ordered us to come here to meet you.”

Prince Yi?!

When Gong Jue Chen learned of Xiao Changyi’s identity, he immediately closed his peach blossom eyes, as if to hide something, or perhaps unwilling to accept the reality. But soon, he opened his eyes again.

Although the corners of his mouth still held a smile that was not quite a smile, the hatred in his heart began to surge, spreading to his limbs and bones.

If Xiao Changyi was Prince Yi, then that old man from before, wasn’t he Su Haoyu?!

Su, Haoyu...

Gong Jue Chen clenched his teeth in his heart, silently repeating these three words. If it weren’t for the fact that he had long practiced keeping his emotions from showing on his face, he would certainly be twisting it in hatred right now.

”Prince Yi? Are you talking about Brother Changyi? Ah, so Brother Changyi is Prince Yi! No wonder he subdued me with just a few moves!” Gong Juese was especially excited.

Watching his sister act this way, Gong Jue Chen felt both sad and happy in his heart. It was truly good that his sister knew nothing.

Meng Lanqing quickly pulled Gong Juese, signaling her to be quiet.

As soon as Meng Lanqing warned her, Gong Juese obediently fell silent.

It was then that Xiao Changyi lifted the carriage curtain and stepped down. He did not look at the people kneeling on the ground but instead went to help An Jing out of the carriage.

As soon as An Jing was helped down by Xiao Changyi, she smiled and said, ”Everyone, please rise.”

Wang Youbao and the others then stood up.

As soon as Li Wuyu got up, she ran towards An Jing and Xiao Changyi, ”Master, Father, we have been waiting for you. I came here before dawn.”

Seeing Li Wuyu being so informal with An Jing and Xiao Changyi, and previously being unaware of their identities, Wang Youbao had let it slide, but now he really feared An Jing and Xiao Changyi would take offense at his wife’s behavior.

Not wanting any trouble for his wife, Wang Youbao endured his distress, and rebuked her, ”Wuyu, don’t be disrespectful.”

Li Wuyu was not foolish, knowing Wang Youbao was afraid she would be blamed, so even though he had scolded her, she wasn’t angry, and felt sweet inside.

An Jing laughed and said, ”Youbao, before you refused to discipline Wuyu for her lack of formality, saying we did not mind and let her be, but now that we truly do not mind, you’re the one who starts to care. Tell us, what exactly do you want to do?”
