Shut up!
Chapter 718 Shut up!
"A letter from Murong Jing," Hong Xiaoduo said, handing the letter to Feiyan.
"Huh? This, I don't think it's appropriate?" Fei Yan hesitated and didn't take it. She hadn't expected the letter to be from Prince Mu.
Since it was written by Prince Mu to Hong Xiaoduo, how could she possibly read it?
“There’s nothing inappropriate about it, and there’s nothing cheesy or explicit in it,” Hong Xiaoduo added.
Now, she really wanted to see how Feiyan would react after seeing it.
Hearing her say that, Fei Yan accepted the letter with peace of mind. After unfolding it, she immediately pursed her lips and looked at Hong Xiaoduo.
"What's wrong?" Hong Xiaoduo asked, puzzled.
"Is this what you mean by 'not too mushy or explicit'?" Fei Yan asked helplessly. If such blatant love talk doesn't count, then what does?
Hong Xiaoduo thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "Shouldn't it be something like, 'I love you, I miss you, I want to kiss your lips, and hold you in my arms?' or something like, 'A day apart feels like three autumns, I can't sleep at night because I miss you'? These are just fourteen fancy characters, what's that, umm..."
"Oh dear, Xiaoduo, stop talking! Shut up!" Feiyan was speechless. After realizing what was happening, she hurriedly reached out to cover Xiaoduo's mouth.
Hong Xiaoduo didn't try to dodge or anything, but glanced sideways at Fei Yan, whose face was flushed and who was looking around.
If she tried to break free, Feiyan wouldn't be able to cover her at all.
Honestly, she used to say things that the court and the emperor would consider treasonous, but I've never seen her this scared. Seriously, is it really that serious?
Once she was sure that Tian Shu and the others, as well as Brother Quan, wouldn't hear, Fei Yan released her hand, glared at Hong Xiaoduo, and whispered, "You're a girl after all, so don't say things like that in the future."
"Oh? Which ones are these? Which type is this? This isn't exactly vulgar language, is it?" Hong Xiaoduo couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Fei Yan.
"You still dare to talk?" Fei Yan was so anxious that she was about to hit her again.
Hong Xiaoduo couldn't bear to tease her anymore and quickly said, "Okay, okay, I won't scare you anymore, I won't say it anymore, alright? Okay, seriously, I don't know how to respond to him."
Upon hearing this, Fei Yan paused for a moment before saying, "Why don't you just listen to your own heart? Besides, I think you do have feelings for him, otherwise you wouldn't be so hesitant and conflicted."
Hong Xiaoduo looked up at the sky for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "That's true, but let me think about it some more."
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, lest they wither and fall from the branches. Don't think too long, or he'll give up on you, and then you'll be left wondering where to find a cure for your regrets."
"Prince Mu is indeed a good person. Don't miss out on your good match," Fei Yan kindly reminded her.
“He gave up on me so easily, which proves he didn’t like me that much,” Hong Xiaoduo argued.
Feiyan strongly disagreed with her: "If it were you, and you didn't get a response, wouldn't you be disheartened?"
"Okay, okay, Feiyan, you're right. I'll seriously consider it. Feiyan, shall I sing you a song?" Hong Xiaoduo asked with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Fei Yan's eyes lit up immediately, and she nodded.
Hong Xiaoduo sometimes sang songs, songs she had never heard before, some beautiful, some funny. The only song she sang, besides "Beautiful Xishuangbanna… Dad has one home, Mom has one home, and I'm all alone, feeling like I'm superfluous," was one that always made people want to cry. Hong Xiaoduo backed away from the carriage with her hands behind her back, watching Feiyan begin to sing:
It's all your fault for falling in love with me so easily.
It makes me unconsciously satisfy my vanity of being loved.
It's all your fault. Your pampering of people is a temptation...
Then he looked at Fei Yan, who had been listening with a smile, and his expression gradually turned serious. His eyes widened, and after realizing what was happening, he waved his hands repeatedly at her and said, "Xiao Duo, stop singing, stop singing."
Quan Jinghuai and his six children, who had been watching from a distance, saw Feiyan chasing after them while Hong Xiaoduo ran ahead, laughing and giggling.
Although I don't know what happened, looking at the person in front of me laughing and joking, well, they must be fine.
They were curious about what Hong Xiaoduo had said that made Feiyan chase after her so recklessly, disregarding her image.
As evening fell, Quan Jinghuai rode his horse forward, discussing with Tian Shu, who was sitting on the carriage shaft, where there was a water source suitable for camping.
Suddenly, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Hong Xiaoduo shouted to Tian Shu to stop the carriage. She leaned out and called to Quan Jinghuai, "Big brother, hurry up and get off the horse and get in the carriage."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Hei stopped before Tian Shu could speak, and Quan Jinghuai quickly reined in his horse to stop as well, asking in bewilderment.
Hong Xiaoduo didn't respond to him. She got off the carriage and went to his side, urging him, "Hurry up, be quick."
Seeing her in such a hurry, Quan Jinghuai had no choice but to dismount and get into the carriage, then watch her mount the horse through the carriage window.
"There are bandit scouts about two miles ahead. If they see you outside, what if they dare not show their faces?"
It's been so long since I've had something this good; my arms and legs are practically rusting.
"Men, get ready. If you're lucky, you can all stretch your muscles and have some fun." Hong Xiaoduo raised an eyebrow and smiled from horseback.
So that's how it is. Quan Jinghuai rolled his eyes at Hong Xiaoduo, thinking to himself, "I think you're the one who looks more like the bandit leader."
Sigh, I wonder how many unlucky people are out there today.
Meeting her meant the end of his sinful ways.
Looking at his six junior disciples, each of them eager to try their skills, Quan Jinghuai didn't know what to say.
In the first few times, he gave various instructions: do not underestimate your opponent, do not keep too far apart, do not be reckless, and if you feel that you are struggling or unable to win, immediately warn others and ask for help.
Later, as soon as he opened his mouth, the little brats had already said what he was going to say.
"Master, when we really start sparring, no matter how itchy you are to join in, you have to resist. You have to trust us. Just watch. If any of us use the moves incorrectly, you can point it out and we'll correct it later." The youngest, Yaoguang, looked at her master with concern and earnestly gave him these instructions.
Seeing his youngest disciple's serious expression, Quan Jinghuai gritted his teeth and nodded in response.
He even said he would take the seven of them back to show off in front of his master and mistress?
This is supposed to be anti-Heavenly Gang? Maybe we should just forget about it!
And the one riding his horse, sitting inside the carriage, could sense bandits and spies two miles away. Quan Jinghuai felt that since meeting her, his heart had become stronger and stronger; otherwise, he would have long since retreated to some remote mountain forest to hide away.
After traveling about three miles, the people in the carriage looked at the woods on both sides of the road ahead and nodded in unison. This was indeed a good place to set up an ambush.
In the woods, six men excitedly polished their swords. After more than a month, they had finally caught their prey. The one who had gone to scout had just returned to report that there were several carriages, with a young and pretty woman riding the horse and a boy driving the carriages. They could vaguely see that the carriages were filled with children as well…
