Little Tuanzi was a smart person. Hearing An Xue Tang ask like that, he immediately understood that the precious treasure An Xue Tang was talking about was Princess San’s daughter.
His face changed slightly, and he nodded. “Yeah, she’s here too.”
An Xuetang frowned, she stood up holding the little dumpling and addressed Mo Yunjing, “A-Jing, it seems like this plate of braised pork won’t be making its way into our stomachs today.”
Mo Yunjing raised an eyebrow slightly, knowing what she wanted to do. He smirked at the moment, “Okay, I’m listening.”
Eleven wasn’t the first day he got to know An Xue Tang, he walked up to the table with a smile this time and put the braised pork back in a box.
An Xue Tang hugged Xiao Tuan Zi and walked out, saying to Shi Yi who was behind her, “Shi Yi, add some seasoning to this plate of meat, for example… the dust on the ground outside.”
“… ”
Eleven blinked. His wife was still his wife, after all.
He subconsciously looked at Mo Yunjing. Seeing that Mo Yunjing said nothing and followed An Xuetang directly, a faint smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
It seems the lord of his house agrees with the duchess’s actions. In that case, he won’t be polite anymore!
An Xuetang held Xiaotuanzi and walked directly downhill. The closer they got to the bottom of the mountain, the tighter Xiaotuanzi’s fists became.
Holding him, An Xuetang naturally felt his increasingly stiff body. She gently stroked his back and softly said, “Little Tuanzi, don’t be afraid today, I’m here.”
Hearing this, Xiao Tuanzi quietly raised his eyes to look at An Xue Tang. Many people treated him well in his daily life, but almost all of them were his senior brothers from the temple and his master.
But today, this female benefactor’s kindness toward him brought forth feelings and a reliance he had never experienced before.
He knew full well that he should let the female benefactor put him down at this moment, and he could walk on his own, but there was a hint of reluctance in his heart.
After staying in An Xuetang’s arms for a while, the little dumpling called out softly, “Lady Donor~”.
An Xue Tang looked down at him and smiled, “Now you call me ‘female benefactor,’ are you not afraid that the King of Beijang behind me will be angry?”
Little Tuanzi only slightly stood up. He secretly poked his head out from An Xuetang’s shoulder and stealthily glanced at King Beijiang behind her.
Just then, King Beijiang, as if sensing something, looked over with his deep-set eyes, meeting Xiao Tuanzi’s gaze.
The little dumpling immediately shrank back in fright.
An Xuetang saw him so afraid of Mo Yunjing, she couldn’t help but smile. “My A Jing won’t eat people, why are you so afraid of him?”
Mo Yun Jing was the King of Bei Jiang, so how could Xia Tuan Zi dare to comment? So right now, he was almost agreeing to everything An Xue Tang said. He didn’t dare to refute even a single word, even though deep down, he really felt that the King of Bei Jiang’s pair of deep and icy eyes were terrifying.
An Xuetang and Xiaotuanzi were caught off guard. The two looked at each other, but they didn’t dare to refuse.
The little bun’s pitiful expression looked at An Xue Tang, clearly wanting her to save him from Mo Yun Jing’s clutches.
But An Xuetang cleared her throat at this moment, pretending not to see and continued walking.
She thought it would be good if Mo Yun Jing held Xiao Tuanzi too. That way, Xiao Tuanzi would focus on how to get away from the cold and aloof Mo Yun Jing, and naturally wouldn’t have the heart to resist the one who had once hurt him.
Soon, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. The temple gate was still closed, and the over a thousand monks in the temple had all gathered at the foot of the mountain.
Some of them guarded the outermost gate, preventing the third princess and her companions from breaking in.
The other group stayed within the inner gate. When they saw Mo Yunjing and An Xue approaching, several monks with a bit of standing walked over to them and bowed.
One of the monks saw Mo Yunjing carrying Ankang, his eyes changed slightly, and he whispered to Ankang, “Ankang, you must not be disrespectful to the King of Beijang, quickly come down!”
Ankang pursed his lips, his expression was extremely wronged. He wanted to leave on his own, he wasn’t incapable of walking by himself, but the King of Beijiang insisted on carrying him. What could he do?
Seeing Xiao Tuanzi’s tear-stricken expression, An Xue Tang smiled and quickly addressed Mo Yun Jing, “A Jing, please put Xiao Tuanzi down.”
Upon receiving the command, Mo Yunjing put down the little dumpling. As soon as it was free, the little dumpling immediately ran to the side of his senior brother, Master Chewu.
Enlightenment frowned, subconsciously wanting to reprimand the little dumpling, thinking he was impolite. How could he not even thank King Beijiang?
Ke Mo Yun Jing had already walked to An Xue Tang’s side. With an impassive expression, he took her hand and walked outside.
The two monks guarding the gate exchanged hesitant glances, still debating whether to open it. Just then, Mo Yunjing scooped up An Xuetang in his arms and, with a flick of his wrist, leaped into the air using light kung fu. He didn’t need to go through the gate at all.
Without a word, Eleven followed closely behind, carrying a box as she flew out.
Xiaotuanzi looked up at Chewu, who had also seemed to have thought of something. He raised his hand and touched Xiaotuanzi’s head, his voice softening, “There will be no trouble here. Go back to your room and meditate first. If you don’t want to stay alone in the meditation hall, then go find Master.”
Che opened his brows slightly, “But there’s…”
At that moment, a voice, slightly aged, appeared behind them, “Che悟, take An Kang out.”
All the monks quickly turned around and bowed to the arrival, “Disciples greet Master Jianzhen.”
Master Jianzhen nodded slightly, looking calmly at the group of monks. “Today’s matter should not be publicized. With King Beijang here, nothing will happen in the temple tonight. You can do whatever you need to do and don’t have to stand around here.”
When Master Jianzhen spoke up like that, these monks didn’t dare to disagree. They quickly obediently returned to their own places.
At this moment, only the three of them, master and apprentice, remained. Jianzhen looked thoughtfully at Ankang, knowing about Ankang’s involvement with the princess’s daughter stuffing meat.
He also understood An Kang’s resistance to the family outside, but as a master, she also wanted An Kang to overcome her fear in her dreams.
So now there’s an opportunity for An Kang to confront the person who has caused him both physical and emotional harm, and he also hopes that An Kang can overcome everything tonight and return to normal.
He looked earnestly at Ankang, “Ankang, this master gives you an opportunity, do you want to follow this master out right now or follow your senior brother back to the room?”
“Ankang pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment before lifting his head and speaking resolutely, “Master, I want to go out.”
Jianzhen Master and Chewu looked at each other, a hint of satisfaction in their eyes.
Without another word, I flew out the door with him.
At this moment, An Xuetang outside the door was already fighting with a woman.
To be precise, An Xue Tang unilaterally crushed this woman.
