Quick Transmigration: My Host's Darling Little Darling

Chapter 39 The Disabled General VS The Puppet Emperor 15

Sheng Yuan set off for the sacrificial altar.

Suddenly, a disheveled man lunged toward the sound, accompanied by a silver wolf carrying an unconscious woman on its back.

"You are General Xie Shengyuan, aren't you? Please save her, please save her!"

The man's clothes weren't cheap, but he was filthy, covered in mud, and his eyes were red. He looked at Xie Shengyuan as if he had seen a lifeline.

Sheng Yuan did not agree immediately, but looked at Silver Wolf instead.

Just as Yuan Chen was about to send them away, he heard his master say, "I'll take them back to His Majesty's courtyard. You can tell His Majesty that I have urgent business and can't go."

“Master, this…” Yuan Chen hesitated. These two people and the wolf had appeared out of nowhere. Even if the master had taken pity on them, he could simply send them to another courtyard to fetch a doctor. The sacrificial ceremony was a major event, and absence would be punished.

"Go ahead, I'll take responsibility for the consequences," Sheng Yuan commanded.

Then she said to the man and the silver wolf, "Come with me, I'll save her."

As the sacrificial ceremony was about to begin, but Sheng Yuan had not yet arrived, Lin Sui became somewhat anxious. Then he saw Yuan Chen come over to report to him.

"What on earth could have tripped up General Xie so much that he even had to abandon such an important event as the sacrificial ceremony?" Yuan Chen didn't deliberately lower his voice, so everyone present heard him. Lin Ze stood to the side and teased.

"But what happened?"

"The master is handling it. After the ceremony, the master will personally explain to His Majesty." Yuan Chen couldn't reveal what he knew in public, so he could only gloss over it.

"Very well, he's always been a man of his word, it must really be something important. I'll ask him about it myself after I'm done here." Since Yuan Chen didn't say anything and Lin Sui couldn't get any information out of him, he just brushed it off.

Since His Majesty has said so, no one else should say anything more.

I can't help but sigh that it's really good to be a close advisor to the emperor; you can choose not to come if you don't want to.

When the hour of Shen (3-5 PM) arrives, the sacrificial ceremony begins.

The sacrificial altar was solemn and majestic, and all the officials followed the emperor in bowing and paying homage.

Between heaven and earth, man is but a tiny speck of dust.

By the time the ceremony ended, it was past 3 PM. The setting sun, a hazy yellow, was about to sink, its edges tinged with red, painting the sky with crimson clouds. The sky was incredibly beautiful at that moment.

Lin Sui suddenly wanted to enjoy the music with Sheng Yuan. Seeing that there was nothing left for him to do, he quickly slipped away and went back to the courtyard to find Sheng Yuan!

"Ah Heng, calm down! Yuan Li will wake up, believe me, okay?"

The man suddenly lost control, and Sheng Yuan had no choice but to reach out and restrain him.

Lin Sui rushed back to the courtyard and saw Sheng Yuan and a disheveled man seemingly huddled together, as if something had suddenly collapsed.

“Sui Sui…” Sheng Yuan called out to Lin Sui as soon as he saw him, but Lin Sui did not listen at all.

Sheng Yuan, having no other choice, said to the man, "Eat something first, then go and keep her company. We can talk about it later." He then instructed Silver Wolf, "Little White, keep an eye on him and don't let him leave this courtyard."

After saying that, he turned and chased after Lin Sui without looking back.

Lin Sui couldn't believe what she was seeing. A Yuan was embracing another man, and A Yuan was even calling him A Heng...

Is Ah Yuan lying to him too?

What should I do?

Lin Sui snapped out of his daze and ran to the front courtyard of the temple. In the instant he was in a daze, a dark shadow rushed towards him.

"Lin Sui!"

When Sheng Yuan caught up, he saw a dark figure approaching Lin Sui and instinctively shouted.

"Red Kite!" A sharp red sword inlaid with gold pierced straight towards the black figure.

Sheng Yuan immediately reached out and hugged Lin Sui, catching the returning Crimson Kite Sword with his other hand.

Lin Sui instinctively wrapped her arms around Sheng Yuan's neck, hanging her entire body on Sheng Yuan's body.

"I completely forgot that you were by his side!" The person lying on the ground had a bloody hole in his chest from being stabbed by the Crimson Kite Sword. His eyes were completely black, making him look miserable and terrifying. His voice was filled with ruthlessness and resentment.

"Luring the tiger away from the mountain is indeed a good method, but even if Yuan Li is not here, our people are not for you to touch. Go back to where you belong, and you should know the consequences better than anyone else." Sheng Yuan's voice was low and calm.

The man breathed his last as soon as he finished speaking.

This was the time when many minor officials were returning home, so a considerable number of people appeared in the front yard of the only road leading to the National Temple.

Lin Sui also came to her senses at this moment, and feeling wronged, she desperately pounded on Sheng Yuan.

"Sheng Yuan, you bastard! Put me down! You bastard!"

Lin Ze, who was just trying to avoid causing trouble for others, said with feigned concern, "What is General Xie doing? How can you be so rude to His Majesty? Quickly put His Majesty down!"

Sheng Yuan merely glanced at him and said indifferently, "Your Highness, instead of worrying about matters concerning me and His Majesty, you should first think about how to explain this assassin."

"What connection do I have with the assassin? General Xie, your baseless accusations against me are a serious crime!"

"The assassin carried the Regent's Palace token; I only have reasonable suspicion. His Majesty was just attacked and is still shaken. I will escort His Majesty back to his residence to rest, and leave the rest to Lord Chen."

Chen Fu was in charge of the safety of this sacrificial ceremony.

After saying that, he left, carrying Lin Sui in one arm and holding the dripping Crimson Kite Sword in the other.

Lin Sui was still struggling, so Sheng Yuan could only tighten his arms around him and whisper in his ear, "Baby, please give me a chance to explain."

Upon hearing this, Lin Sui stopped struggling.

Ah Yuan had better give himself a reasonable explanation, otherwise...

When Sheng Yuan was about to carry her back to the courtyard, Ah Heng had already gone into the house with Silver Wolf to keep his unconscious wife company.

While he wasn't paying attention, Sheng Yuan put away the Crimson Kite Sword and now sat facing each other on the soft couch, holding Lin Sui in his arms.

"Didn't you want an explanation? Then speak!"

Lin Sui quickly withdrew from Sheng Yuan's embrace, sat on the soft couch, crossed her arms, and glared fiercely at Sheng Yuan.

"The man's wife is unconscious, and he just heard that she won't wake up for the time being, so he lost control."

“I saw you hug him! And you called him Ah Heng.”

"I didn't hug him. It's a common way the soldiers control him. I was just worried that he, a pampered young master, might have his ribs broken, and that his wife would come after me when she woke up. So I was gentler. As for what to call him, I don't know what he's called now. I only know that his name has the character 'Heng' in it."

"Really?"

“It’s true. I have some connection with both of them.”

"A connection? What's your relationship?" Lin Sui approached him, cupped his face, and asked with a frown.

Seeing him suddenly approach, Sheng Yuan immediately reached out and put his hand on his waist, saying, "Baby can be understood as 'family'."

"them……"

Sheng Yuan hugged him and said, "I know you might not understand, but do you remember the day I told you I came for you?"

"remember."

"His wife came for him just like I did."

Lin Sui raised his head, and Sheng Yuan stroked the back of his neck, looking at him tenderly and saying, "Actually, his wife is currently unconscious for the safety of the three of us, so before she wakes up, I have to protect her, and I also have to protect you."

As Lin Sui listened to his explanation, she recalled the conversation between the assassin and A Yuan in the front yard earlier.

"Is it that assassin's faction?"

"Hmm. My baby is very smart." Sheng Yuan said, "So, my baby isn't angry anymore, okay?"

"Alright then, I'll barely let you pass this time. There won't be a next time!"

"Okay, thank you for forgiving me, baby." Sheng Yuan hugged him tightly and said, "Baby, it's dangerous right now, but I only love you, and that will never change. Next time you're angry, you can hit me or yell at me, just don't be so impulsive, okay?"

Lin Sui sensed that Sheng Yuan was trembling; he was nervous because of him.

"I understand, it won't happen again." Lin Sui hugged him and said, "I'm fine now, A Yuan, don't be afraid."

"Yes, baby's here, don't be afraid."
