"It's useless even if I agree. I'm afraid someone won't agree." Ximen Hong tilted his head and looked at the bandaged wound.

He knew very well what kind of person Xue Wenyu was.

This time, his beloved woman was kidnapped. It might not be that easy for him to return to Xiyue!

"Master, why do you want to boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige? We have been to Yan State many times. We know all the roads, the obvious and the hidden. How can we not be able to go back?" Someone comforted.

Ximen Hong smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Let me ask you, who are the people who intercepted us on the road?"

The subordinate shook his head. "They all have their faces covered. No matter who they are, their identities cannot be seen in public."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man who was older than him spoke up, "The master's worry is not unreasonable. Although we have come to Yan Country many times, it feels like we are in our own land. But look at this time, the master is injured.

What does this mean? It means that the opponent is stronger than us, and that we have underestimated the enemy in the past.

In the past, we have always been very low-key, but this time, that kid Lu Tong kidnapped people, so even if we want to keep a low profile, it is impossible.

Besides, Duke Xue will not let us go easily no matter whether the person who kidnapped the woman is his friend or enemy.

My Lord, I think we must find a way to leave here as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the longer it takes, the harder it will be to get out of this situation."

Even if I can return to my country this time, it will be even harder to come back next time.

At this moment, the person in charge of alert not far away blew a warning whistle, and a group of people quickly escorted Ximen Hong into the depths of the forest.

Mu Yingbao and his group returned to the capital after dark. As soon as they entered the palace gate, the carriage stopped again.

"What's going on?" Xue Wenyu asked in a low voice.

"Father? How is mother?" Brother Hui asked excitedly and nervously.

In the afternoon, he did not go to court, but stood there waiting for his mother to come back.

When he received the news in the afternoon that his father had arranged for someone to send him back, he was so excited that he didn't have the mood to do anything else.

"Come up." Xue Wenyu called in a low voice.

When Brother Hui heard this, he immediately got into the carriage and saw his mother sleeping soundly in his father's arms.

Looking at his mother in the candlelight in the carriage, Hui Ge's tears fell down.

Through the tears, I vaguely saw a hand reaching out to me. "Silly son, why are you talking nonsense? I'm back safe and sound, right?"

"Mother, I scared you to death." Brother Hui choked. If his mother had not been in his father's arms at this moment, he would have thrown himself into her arms.

Mu Yingbao sat on the couch, asked Hui Ge to sit next to her, put her arm around his shoulders and let the child lean on her side, while she leaned on Xue Wenyu.

The carriage arrived outside the Palace of Tranquil Longevity. Hui Ge and Xue Wenyu got off the carriage one after another. Since Xue Wenyu was there, Hui Ge had no chance. He looked at his father with envy as he carried his mother down from the carriage.

Brother Hui really wanted to be the one to lend his hand and help his mother get out of the car at this moment.

However, with his father around, he, as a son, could only stand aside!

"Girl, you didn't suffer, did you?" Old man Tao asked calmly, standing beside the carriage.

"Grandfather, don't you see who I am? How could I possibly suffer?" Mu Yingbao responded with a smile.

Seeing that she could still joke, Old Man Tao was sure that she was not tortured, and he breathed a sigh of relief. "Since you are fine, then someone must be in trouble."

"I don't know about my granddaughter. By the way, Brother Hui, if that guy gets into trouble on our territory, will Xiyue use it to make things difficult for us?" Mu Yingbao looked at Brother Hui worriedly and asked.

n

She is not afraid of anything, but she doesn't want her child to get into any more trouble.

"Mother, don't worry about this. He didn't come here in public. Even if something really happened, it has nothing to do with us. Your son is not afraid that Xiyue will use this as an excuse to cause trouble." Brother Hui said confidently.

Brother Hui didn't say one more thing, that is, even if Xiyue didn't come to cause trouble, he would still cause trouble for them!

How dare you bully his mother on his territory? Do you think the emperor of the entire Yan Kingdom is nobody?

"Madam is back, madam."

"Madam?

A group of people rushed over and pushed Brother Hui, Old Man Tao and Xue Wenyu aside.

Looking at the girls surrounding her with red and swollen eyes, Mu Yingbao was so moved that her nose felt sore and she almost cried on the spot.

"I'm fine. I'm doing fine. I made you worry about me. I'll make you something delicious tomorrow to compensate you." Mu Yingbao tried hard to smile and joked with them.

However, not only did no one laugh, but some even started crying, starting with sniffles and then crying loudly.

The people who were pushed aside, as well as Xue Wenyu's men, were also moved.

These grown men were all made to cry by these women.

Everyone was very scared, and no one dared to think, has Madam Qiaoruo really gotten into trouble this time?

"My mother is back safely. Let's let her have a good rest." Seeing that his father seemed to have lost his patience, Brother Hui hurriedly opened the door.

Dongzhu and the others finally came to their senses and quickly surrounded Mu Yingbao and walked towards the west warm pavilion.

All of a sudden, I became busy.

Boil water, boil water.

"Father, how about you come sit in my room first?" Outside the west warm room, Brother Hui looked at his expressionless father beside him and discussed with him carefully.

"Mockery." Xue Wenyu looked at the women who were crying and laughing and busying around at his door, wiping their tears, and sighed and left with Brother Hui.

Old man Tao looked at the bustling and chaotic West Warm Pavilion, shook his head helplessly, and walked with the two men in front.

In the west warm room, Mu Yingbao was already soaking in the bathtub, and Nanzhu was washing her hair carefully.

Dongzhu found her some clothes to change into, while the others waited outside.

In Brother Hui's study, three people, young and old, sat around the table with serious faces.

"Father, great-grandfather, you can do whatever you want without worrying about me. Besides, I have things to do." Brother Hui said in a very mature manner.

The two adults looked at him together, and of course they understood what the child meant.

"You? Don't support this matter for now, and wait and see how it develops later." Xue Wenyu said.

"That's right, kid, don't be anxious. Don't be afraid that you won't have the chance to avenge your mother. As long as we are willing, there will definitely be a chance." Old Man Tao also spoke.

As for Ximen Hong, the three of them didn't want to take his life directly. Wouldn't that be too much? The two adults looked at him together, and of course they understood what the child meant.

"You? Don't support this matter for now, and wait and see how it develops later." Xue Wenyu said.

"That's right, kid, don't be anxious. Don't be afraid that you won't have the chance to avenge your mother. As long as we are willing, there will definitely be a chance." Old Man Tao also spoke.

As for Ximen Hong, none of the three of them wanted to take his life directly, as that would be too easy for him.

Brother Hui nodded on the surface, appearing to be very obedient, but he didn't think so in his heart.

But Xue Wenyu was a little worried.

What if, as she had guessed, she and Ximen Hong were really related by blood?
