Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2069: Chapter 2067: Does He Really Mean to Go This Far?

Tang Yin was instantly angry, ”Giving up everything, can you provide her with a wealthy life and ensure her safety? Giving up everything, what purpose does your life have left, just eating and waiting for death, without your own goals and pursuits? If she truly cared about you, she wouldn’t want you to give up everything for her. If it were Princess Le Pei, she wouldn’t put me in a difficult position!”

Jiang Yichun took a deep breath, ”It wasn’t her request, it’s my own decision. I ask Your Majesty to accomplish it.”

While speaking, he kowtowed twice, making a loud noise.

Tang Yin observed his forehead, already bruised and purple, with his pale face accentuating the alarming sight, feeling uneasy in his heart, he waved his hand and said, ”You may leave, I will consider it.”

Jiang Yichun rose, took his leave, and returned to the tent. Seeing his condition, Gao Deng couldn’t help but sigh, ”Why don’t you just say a few soft words? Why make such intense kowtows?”

”I cannot remain loyal to the sovereign, nor faithful to my friends, indeed it is my debt to him.” Jiang Yichun responded indifferently.

Gao Deng applied ointment to him, yet he showed no expression, as if the head injury wasn’t his own.

”Do you think it’s somewhat far-fetched that Ruozhu is in trouble? How could the emperor possibly believe?” Gao Deng muttered.

”He truly doesn’t believe.” Jiang Yichun sighed, ”Haven’t received a letter from Ruozhu for a long time, don’t know how she’s faring at Jiuli Clan, I’ll leave the day after tomorrow at the latest, must see her soon.”

Gao Deng couldn’t help but sigh again, ”It was all fine before, you say how...”

He found himself unable to continue, threw the medicine box aside, and said, ”I’m going out to wash my hands.”

”Hope Ruozhu is alright.”

At the moment Gao Deng left the tent, he heard Jiang Yichun talking to himself, and his heart became sour again.

The next day, Jiang Yichun went to see Tang Yin again, maintaining the same stance, ready to leave immediately.

Tang Yin’s attempts to persuade were fruitless, eventually leading to an outburst.

”These are all excuses, right? Bai Ruozhu wouldn’t be in danger, you keep claiming to love her, yet aren’t you using her as an excuse, a shield? You’re going to Chengshui to find your biological father, aren’t you?” Tang Yin shouted.

Jiang Yichun’s body shook, so he knew everything.

”When did you find out?” He asked sternly, realizing Tang Yin didn’t know about the Divine Doctor being his father in disguise.

Tang Yin seemed to calm down, influenced by Jiang Yichun’s composure, but the unextinguished anger still lingered in his eyes.

”Years ago when Elder Jiang Ge’s family encountered trouble, the Former Emperor couldn’t ignore it completely. After half a year of investigation, the truth emerged, we all thought you went to Chengshui Country. Later, the Former Emperor explained it’s not easy for Elder Jiang Ge, as he arranged Elder Jiang Ge to receive the Chengshui envoy back then, feeling guilty toward Elder Jiang Ge, instructed me not to publicize this matter.”

Tang Yin sighed, ”When I saw you again, you said your father died shortly after leaving the Capital, I know he preferred to die rather than take you to the chaotic Chengshui, so I didn’t bring it up.”

Jiang Yichun’s heart turned icy, he struggled to calm his emotions, and said, ”Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will never oppose Danliang, nor serve Chengshui.”

”Then what about Bai Ruozhu?” Tang Yin asked.

Jiang Yichun felt even colder, the emperor never trusted him, feared he’d become a sharp weapon for Chengshui one day, and also feared Chengshui would gain a Divine Doctor like Ruozhu.

”She doesn’t care about politics, Your Majesty is overly worried.” He replied.

The conversation had reached this point, Tang Yin knew he couldn’t retain Jiang Yichun, but if he were to kill him to eliminate future troubles, he couldn’t bear to be so ruthless, he sighed and waved his hand, saying, ”Remember what you said to me today.”

”I will keep it in mind, and not forget the emperor’s nurturing grace.” Jiang Yichun bowed again, then exited.

Lu appeared in the tent, worriedly saying, ”Your Majesty, letting Huo Gui escape will lead to endless troubles, you can’t soften your heart.”

Tang Yin coldly said, ”Enough, I have my own decision!”

Lu dared not say more, but his expression was unpleasant, Jiang Yichun couldn’t be used by the emperor, he shouldn’t be allowed to leave so freely, after all, he knew too much!

Jiang Yichun returned to the tent, telling Gao Deng, ”Let’s go, be extra careful on the road.”

”You take the visible path, I’ll take the hidden path.” Gao Deng was certainly more cautious.

”Sure.”

Jiang Yichun rode horses with Jing Lei and Muyu, leaving the Main Camp, stirring quite a commotion, the Tu Family father and daughter witnessed it too, Tu Ying worriedly asked, ”Is Official Jiang leaving because Ruozhu is in trouble?”

Tu Lie shook his head, ”Don’t get it wrong, father will go inquire.”

Ao Qi appeared to intercept Tu Lie, ”Uncle, don’t probe into Jiang Yichun’s matters, it’s said he insisted on leaving, had a dispute with the emperor, the emperor is still in fury, no one dares mention him.”

”Is it Bai Ruozhu in trouble?” Tu Lie was concerned, Bai Ruozhu has been kind to their family.

”Probably not, seems Jiang Yichun’s injuries are too severe, he feels unfit to be an officer.” Ao Qi explained, though he’s not a Danliang native, his connections are good, so he’s well informed.

Tu Ying breathed a sigh of relief, ”As long as Ruozhu’s alright, it’s a pity for Official Jiang.”

”It’s good to be alive, at our age, martial arts, inner strength don’t matter, as long as one is safe.” Tu Lie remarked with emotion, ”Both of you should be cautious, don’t be reckless when attacking the Capital City, ensure your safety! Military merits can always be earned again, but if life is lost, all efforts are wasted.”

”Uncle is right, Ao Qi noted.” Ao Qi replied respectfully.

Tu Ying nodded, ”Dad, I noted.”

Seeing his prospective son-in-law and daughter being so sensible, Tu Lie felt joyous, his daughter used to be a troublemaker, the transformation now was beyond his expectations.

Once everything settles down, he’ll arrange the marriage for the two.

Jiang Yichun left the Main Camp along the way, Gao Deng left from the dark, they converged outside the city, planning to travel south overnight.

”Thanks for your hard work, dad, I’m really afraid Ruozhu is in trouble.” Jiang Yichun guiltily said to Gao Deng.

”What hard work is this, I’m not old yet, what’s wrong with rushing at night?” Gao Deng glared, ”Besides, Bai Ruozhu is my adopted daughter, also my daughter-in-law, how could I not worry about her?”

Jiang Yichun managed to force a slight smile, but quickly regained a serious face, ”Dad, don’t say much upon seeing her, remember what you promised me.”

”Alright, I keep my words.” Gao Deng said, somewhat frustrated.

The group hadn’t ridden for half an hour when Gao Deng suddenly called a halt, quietly informing Jiang Yichun, ”Not good, there’s an ambush ahead.”

Jiang Yichun’s heart sank, he viewed the emperor as a brother, would he truly act like this?

With a swish, an arrow pierced the night sky, swiftly targeting his face...
