Return of the Phoenix Lady

Chapter 176 Taking advantage of the situation

"Good girl, don't cry!" Shangguan Hongyuan coaxed Xiyu and said to the pastor, "Can you heal her wound quickly?"

"Sir, it's not that I can't do it, but..." The pastor glanced at Xiyu and hesitated to speak.

"Tell me! What happened?" Jin Haoyu frowned and looked at the pastor.

"This... Since the princess's wounds were all scratched by sawdust, some sawdust is inevitably stuck in the wounds. If these sawdust are not removed, the wounds will still be painful even after healing." The pastor looked at the delicate-looking princess. How could she bear such pain?

"What?!" Shangguan Hongyuan frowned when he heard that.

When Princess Xiyu heard this, she felt even more aggrieved and burst into tears, crying and shouting, "No! No! Wuwu~ Uncle, save Yu'er! Wuwu~ Yu'er is in so much pain! Third brother! Save me! Wuwu~"

Jin Haoyu looked at Xiyu with an expression of pity and said, "Yu'er, be obedient. If you don't remove these sawdust, you will still feel pain in the future. It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Let the pastor help you remove the sawdust, okay?"

"No! Don't!... Yu'er, it hurts! It hurts! Woo woo~" Princess Xiyu cried so hard that her voice was almost unbearable.

"Good Yu'er, listen to your uncle. This is the only way to save you! Just bear with it!" Shangguan Hongyuan looked at Xiyu with a look of regret.

"No! No! Wuuuu~ It's him! It's all him! It's all him! Wuuuu~ I'm going to kill him! Kill him!" Xiyu cried viciously.

"Don't cry! Yu'er, tell your uncle who it is?" Shangguan Hongyuan said while wiping the tears from Xiyu's cheek.

"It's that pariah! Wuuuuu~ It must be him! He is the one who hurt me! Wuuuuu~ Uncle! You have to make the decision for me! Wuuuuu~ Kill him! Kill that pariah! To vent the hatred in Yu'er's heart! Wuuuuu~" Princess Xiyu's delicate body had never suffered any injuries since she was a child. Now he was torturing her like this. She even wanted to chop off the pariah and feed him to the dogs!

Shangguan Hongyuan frowned. He knew who the untouchables Yu'er was talking about! Yu'er was really something. She could offend anyone, but why did she have to offend him? He was Qin Wuyou, the key figure in his plan! Without him, his plan would fail. He couldn't afford to offend him now!

"Yu'er, don't worry, I will investigate this matter and seek justice for you!" Jin Haoyu said in a deep voice.

"What are you investigating? I said it was that untouchable! Brother, just go and kill that untouchable for me! Kill him!" Princess Xiyu shouted madly.

"Yu'er, calm down! Don't be like this!" Jin Haoyu frowned.

"No! Kill him! Go ahead and kill him! He hurt me like this, I will never let him go!" Princess Xiyu's pretty face flushed red, and now there was only hatred and anger in her heart!

Seeing this, Shangguan Hongyuan and Jin Haoyu looked at each other. Shangguan Hongyuan quickly touched Princess Xiyu's chest, and Xiyu fell asleep quietly.

Shangguan Hongyuan looked at the pastor and said, "I leave it to you. Make sure to cure Yu'er before she wakes up."

The priest nodded, called the maid to join him, and began to find fault.

Shangguan Hongyuan glanced at Han Xing, who was still sitting leisurely, and said to Jin Haoyu, "Haoyu, I'll leave this matter to you. Uncle has something to do, so I'll leave first."

"Yes." Jin Haoyu nodded and watched Shangguan Hong leave.

Glancing at the busy bedside, Jin Haoyu said to Han Xing, "Brother Han, let's go out and talk! Leave this to them."

Han Xing nodded and walked out with Jin Haoyu.

Without waiting for Jin Haoyu to speak, Han Xing lowered her head and said, "Brother Jin, I've really troubled you these days. Although I didn't do anything, I still caused such a thing. Now the princess must hate me to the core! I think I'd better leave! I've been bothering you here for so long. It's really my fault! Now that my brother has seen it, even if I can't change the current situation, I'm already very satisfied!"

When Jin Haoyu heard this, he became anxious. Anyone can leave now, except him. If he leaves, what will happen to their plan?

"Brother Han, don't be so polite. How is this a trouble? Big brother is happy to help you, but Brother Han, you still have to hide your true identity from me?" Jin Haoyu deliberately changed the subject.

The little person in front of him raised his head as he expected, and looked at him in surprise with a pair of bright eyes. He looked so cute.

"You...Brother, how did you know?"

"Haha! Since your brother is Qin Wuguo, how can I not guess your identity? Now your brother has met your mother. Don't worry, I will definitely help you see your mother!" Jin Haoyu chuckled.

"Mother? Didn't my mother already..." Han Xing widened her eyes and looked at Jin Haoyu in shock.

"It seems your brother didn't tell you about your mother. Back then, it was my uncle who saved your mother and allowed her to live here."

"What...what? How could this happen? Is this true?" Han Xing said in disbelief.

Jin Haoyu curled his lips and smiled, "Wuyou, how could Brother Jin lie to you? If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see my uncle and let him explain it to you! Okay?"

"Okay!" So, Jin Haoyu, the big bad wolf, took Han Xing, the fake Little Red Riding Hood, to the study where Shangguan Hongyuan was.

Arriving at the door, Jin Haoyu knocked politely and said, "Uncle, Qin Wuyou wants to see you."

"Come in." Shangguan Hongyuan's voice came from inside the door.

"Uncle, this is Qin Wuyou. He wants to meet his mother. What do you think?" Jin Haoyu said.

"Qin Wuyou? Are you Qin Wuyou?" Shangguan Hongyuan stared at Han Xing with his sharp eyes for a while and said.

Han Xing nodded and said, "Yes, sir, please let me see my mother!"

Shangguan Hongyuan suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere in the study became tense in an instant.

Han Xing looked at Jin Haoyu somewhat helplessly, and Jin Haoyu gave him a reassuring look in return.

Shangguan Hongyuan took in all of Han Xing's little movements and suddenly said in a deep voice, "Back then, General Qin was the top general of our Jin Nation. The tens of thousands of soldiers he led actually defeated the Fire Nation's army of over 100,000! He was truly a hero! It's a pity that heroes die young. General Qin killed countless people and even made enemies. In one night, his entire family was killed. Only his two sons escaped. It was only by chance that I saved your mother."

Han Xing sneered in her heart. Look how high-sounding the words were. If she didn't know the truth, she would have been deceived!

Even though he was thinking this, he still said politely, "Thank you for saving my mother, sir. I will never forget it! When I learn the skills, I will find the real culprit, avenge the Qin family, and pay tribute to the souls of my family in heaven!"

"Good! Good! What a good boy! General Qin is so lucky to have a son like you! I'm happy for him too! When you grow up, you will definitely be something extraordinary!" Shangguan Hongyuan said this, but he sneered in his heart. What a fool! How foolish! He said this in front of him even though the murderer of his father was right in front of him. How naive he was!

"Uncle, can you agree to Wuyou's request?" Jin Haoyu echoed from the side.

"I like you very much, and I will definitely return your mother to you. However, everyone in the court is trying to get General Qin's military token, and you are just an orphan and a widow. You will definitely not live a peaceful life! For the sake of your safety, why don't you hand over the military token to me, and I will keep it for you. I will also give you a thousand taels of gold to protect you for the rest of your life!" Shangguan Hongyuan shamelessly deceived Han Xing.

"Military talisman? What is it?" Han Xing asked puzzledly.

"You don't know? How is this possible? It's just a piece of crystal white jade pendant!" Shangguan Hongyuan excitedly said loudly.

Han Xing immediately looked frightened and didn't dare to speak.

Seeing this, Jin Haoyu hurriedly said, "Wuyou, don't be afraid. Think about it carefully. Do you remember that jade pendant?"

This crystal-white jade pendant really exists and is right here with Han Xing. It was the gift Yingchen and Yingrui gave her on her ninth birthday!

With a turn of his eyes, Han Xing said, "Ah! I remember now! I gave it to Brother Feng! He's your fifth brother!"

"What, you gave it to him? How could this happen?" Jin Haoyu looked shocked.

Shangguan Hongyuan calmed down. He thought that Jin Yifeng might not recognize the military token. Maybe they still had a chance to get it. Suddenly, he changed his mind and came up with a plan!
