He held Yang Yanqi's hand and walked for a long distance. When he could no longer see Xie Jinwu and the others, Chu Yun reluctantly let go. When he felt Chu Yun let go, Yang Yanqi still questioned him with some anger,"Why are you pulling me away?"
Hearing Yang Yanqi's question, Chu Yun smiled bitterly and said carefully,""Eighth Aunt, that Xie Jinwu is the son-in-law of Grand Preceptor Pan, and Grand Preceptor Pan has always been on bad terms with our Yang family. Today is the day he parades on the streets under the Emperor's orders. Although we interrupted his parade earlier, the reason is on our side. Therefore, even if Grand Preceptor Pan speaks to the Emperor and the Emperor is very unhappy, he will not punish us. But now that Xie Jinwu has apologized, if we continue to hold on to it, the Emperor will have reason to punish us. Moreover, our Yang family has made many military achievements and our prestige in the army is far higher than the emperor's, so he has long wanted to find an opportunity to take back some military power.”
After listening to Chu Yun's analysis, Yang Yanqi finally understood. Indeed, Chu Yun was right. If it wasn't for the Southern Tang, Later Shu, and Northern Han that had yet to be eliminated, and the Liao Kingdom and other foreign countries that were eyeing them covetously, and the current Emperor still needed the Yang family to protect his country, the current Emperor would have long found an excuse to take back the Yang family's military power. Everyone understood the principle of the rabbit dying and the dog meat being cooked. Yang Yanqi was also a smart person, so she understood the principle.
Seeing that Yang Yanqi did not speak anymore, Chu Yun heaved a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that this lady would cause a ruckus here! Since the misunderstanding had been resolved, Yang Yanqi went shopping as usual, and Chu Yun accompanied her. Now, he finally understood how tiring it was to accompany a woman shopping, especially a young lady like Yang Yanqi. He simply couldn't stay idle!
Chu Yun felt that his legs were about to break, but Yang Yanqi was still in high spirits. Finally, the sky was about to turn dark, and Yang Yanqi could only reluctantly walk with Chu Yun to the Heavenly Wave Mansion. As soon as they entered the Heavenly Wave Mansion, a young woman in her twenties walked towards them. Her hair was tied up in a high bun, which complemented her slender figure, slender waist, beautiful neck, and fair skin. Her every move was charming and beautiful.
Seeing this young woman, Yang Zongbao hurriedly called out,"Sister-in-law." It turned out that she was Elder Brother Yang Zongmian's wife, Jiao Yueniang.
Hearing Yang Zongbao's words, Jiao Yue's mother rolled her eyes at him. She still loved this brother-in-law very much, not only because this man was the only male left in the Yang family, but also because after her husband's death, she had spent a long time with this brother-in-law. She had developed an indescribable feeling for him, a feeling that was between family love and love between men and women.
Yang Yanqi saw that Jiao Yue's mother didn't seem to be looking at her. She quickly wanted to leave quietly because she knew that the people in the Skywave Prefecture must have known that she had punched Xie Jinwu on the street. Jiao Yue's mother was waiting for her here to teach her a lesson. Therefore, she prepared to leave quietly.
However, after a few steps, a voice sounded in Yang Yanqi's ear,""Eighth Aunt, Grandma invites you to the hall. She has something to tell you.”
Hearing this, Yang Yanqi's face immediately turned bitter. She knew that Princess Chai was looking for her because of the matter of punching Xie Jinwu today, so she quickly begged Jiao Yue's mother,"Yue Niang, just tell Sixth Sister-in-law that you didn't see me and let me go! Otherwise, I'll be scolded again."
Chu Yun was shocked when he saw Yang Yanqi's coquettish look. He never thought that Little Chili Pepper would turn into a little lamb. It seemed that he had really underestimated a woman's ability to change her face! Jiao Yue's mother must have already experienced Yang Yanqi's coquettish ways. She sighed and said,"Sigh! Eighth Aunt, it's not that I want to criticize you, but why did you provoke that new martial arts scholar Xie Jinwu the moment you went out on the streets? He's the son-in-law of Grand Preceptor Pan, and Grand Preceptor Pan is our Yang Family's sworn enemy. If he asks the Emperor to accuse us of disrupting the Martial Scholar's patrol and despising the Emperor, what should we do?”
Jiao Yue's mother continued," Although the current Emperor won't say anything because he still wants us to protect his country, this will definitely bury a thorn in his heart. You have to know that our Yang family's prestige in the Song army is far higher than the current Emperor's. Therefore, if the current Emperor didn't need us to protect his country, he would have found an excuse to eliminate our Yang family. Therefore, our Yang family can be said to be treading on thin ice!”
Hearing Jiao Yue's mother's words, Yang Yanqi was still not sure if she had done anything wrong. She asked,"Am I going to watch Xie Jinwu bully the commoners and not care? Besides, the reason is on our side now. Even if he is the current emperor, he has to be reasonable!”
"Yeah! Sister-in-law, eighth aunt is right. Right now, the reason is on our side. Even the emperor can't be unreasonable!”Chu Yun quickly followed Yang Yanqi's lead, which made her very happy. She then looked at Chu Yun with admiration.
Hearing Yang Yanqi and Chu Yun's words, Jiao Yue's mother also felt that she was indeed in the wrong. Ever since her husband died, in order to protect the Yang family, she had been submissive to many things and gradually got used to it. But now, Yang Yanqi and Chu Yun's words instantly woke her up.
" I know that my mother, grandmother, aunts, and sisters-in-law have suffered a lot for the survival of the Skywave Prefecture over the years. I swear that I will never let you suffer such grievances again."”
After hearing Chu Yun's words, Yang Yanqi and Jiao Yueniang instantly felt that Chu Yun's body had grown much taller. A strange feeling surged in their hearts at the same time. They felt that this man in front of them could help them shelter from the wind and rain.
At this moment, a round of applause came from behind Jiao Yue's mother. Then, a beautiful voice said,"Zong Bao has finally grown up and knows how to protect mother and all the other aunts. If the Taijun knew of your words, she would definitely be very gratified!”
"Mother!" "Sixth sister-in-law!" "Granny!" The three of them hurriedly called out. That's right, this voice belonged to Princess Chai!
"Sixth sister-in-law, why are you here?" Yang Yanqi said timidly.
After hearing this, Princess Chai glared at Yang Yanqi and said,""Why can't I come? If I didn't come, I'm afraid you wouldn't take the initiative to see me. You only know how to cause trouble all day long. Now, you actually beat up the current martial arts champion.”
Hearing this, Yang Yanqi hurriedly hugged Princess Chai's shoulders and begged,""Sixth sister-in-law, I beg you, don't tell Taijun. Otherwise, she will definitely lock me up for a few months.”
Seeing Yang Yanqi's expression, Princess Chai could only roll her eyes and say,""Don't do it again."
"Thank you, Sixth Sister-in-law. I'll be leaving first.”With that, Yang Yanqi ran back to her room, leaving behind Princess Chai, Jiao Yueniang, and Chu Yun. Jiao Yueniang left as well, and Chu Yun accompanied his mother to the hall.
