Crossing the Sauvignon Blanc

Chapter 213 Jiaojiao and Yueyue

Wushenshan Chaohui Hall

Xuan came early in the morning and waited outside the palace. An hour later, all the ministers in Haoling had left, and he walked in at the summons of King Haoling.

"Disciple greets Master. Master, please forgive me for coming to see you just now. The events in Qingqiu have had a huge impact, and Grandfather told me to treat the civilians first. I just finished my work yesterday, and I hurried over here. I wonder if Master and Xiaoyao are feeling better now. I heard Xiaoyao was seriously injured. Can I go see her?"

Observing that King Hao Ling's face was still somewhat pale, Xuan guessed that if even King Hao Ling had been seriously injured for such a long time and had not recovered, how serious was Xiao Yao's injury?

"Ahem...Xuan, you're thoughtful and you did the right thing. How could Master blame you? But, Xiaoyao..."

"What happened to Xiaoyao?"

King Hao Ling suddenly covered his face with a look of sorrow, his eyes were red, he seemed unwilling to say more, his lips trembled constantly.

"It's my fault for not protecting Xiaoyao, Xuanxuan. Xiaoyao has been unconscious. I've sent her to Jade Mountain to sleep in the Yaochi Lake. The Jade Mother said there's a formation there, so outsiders can't enter and can only watch from afar. When she wakes up depends on God's will."

Xuanxuan's heart sank. Xiaoyao was so badly injured, yet he hadn't come to see her immediately. Distraught, he asked, "How could this happen, Master? What on earth happened to you in Qingqiu?"

"It was the Qingqiu Patriarch who blew himself up. At the time, we were all in the cave, unable to escape. Xiangliu and Hall Master Yan were the last ones left. I only had time to protect Xiaoyao and the princess. Xiaoyao was far away, and I didn't protect her immediately. That's why she... It's all my father's fault..."

"Father, this is not your fault. Sister will be fine..."

When Wuyou heard that Xuanxuan was coming, she was inspecting the military training and hurriedly changed her makeup and came over. Just then she heard King Haoling acting, so she rubbed her eyes desperately, ran in crying and threw herself into King Haoling's arms. King Haoling seemed to be extremely tolerant of the pain, but was afraid of losing his dignity as an emperor, so he forced a smile to comfort Wuyou.

Xuanxuan had never seen the always majestic King Haoling cry and be sad, which showed how much King Haoling cared about Xiaoyao.

Is Xiaoyao really not the daughter of King Haoling? Perhaps, Master himself doesn't know?

"Master, are Xiangliu and the others really dead?"

A cold light flashed in King Hao Ling's eyes. Was he really here to care about someone or to inquire about information?

Wuyou was furious. Who was he cursing to death? He had only spread the news that they were missing, but they were so lucky. The whole world was saying they were dead. Pah!

She glared at Xuanxuan angrily, feeling aggrieved, as if she didn't believe the truth of the matter, and said angrily:

"You're talking nonsense! My brother-in-law won't die. Sister Yan is a phoenix. They say phoenixes don't die... Even if you die, they won't die!"

"Wuyou, don't talk nonsense!"

King Hao Ling gave a warning, but Wuyou snorted in displeasure and ignored Cai Xuanxuan.

Seeing Wuyou's reaction, Xuanxuan was more certain that Xiangliu and the others were really dead, and he was secretly happy. He didn't care why Wuyou called him brother-in-law so smoothly.

Xuan left behind a few boxes of medicinal herbs and left. After staying in Wushen Mountain for a few days, he said goodbye and went to Yushan.

"Father, hurry up and pack up. My sister gave birth to two babies. Let's go together. I'm going to find some gifts. My niece and nephew, my aunt is here!"

King Haoling and Ah Heng looked at Wuyou, who was acting very sadly one moment and was about to jump up with excitement the next, and smiled dotingly.

"Heng, do you regret marrying me?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? The child is already so big. Go quickly, I'll prepare some gifts too. I'll take all the small clothes I embroidered earlier. As for you, you can't go empty-handed!"

"Haha, of course not! I've already prepared it!"

Moon-Watching Peak in Qingshui Town

It has been very lively here recently. Yiying and Gui Fangyanqing have also come, Baixue Yunzi and the others are here too, even Laomu, Sangtianer and Caogen have come, Wuyou Rushu and the others are the last to arrive.

When Wuyou and the others arrived, the two little ones were in the cradle, surrounded by people who were trying their best to amuse them. Wuyou could only hear the cute laughter of the babies, and his figure was completely blocked by the crowd.

"I'm coming! Make way, I haven't seen it yet!"

Everyone made way to let King Wuyou Haoling and the others come over and take a look.

“Ah, ah… chuckle…”

"Oh my god, such cute little balls of meat! What are their names?"

Yiying replied, "Jiaojiao, the girl will be named Jiaojiao, and her full name will be Xiangyueran, which means she is as gentle and beautiful as moonlight, and has a lively and agile demeanor. The boy will be named Xiangze, which means kind and gentle, and also means wishing him great blessings and a peaceful life. His nickname will be Yueyue."

"Yueyue?"

A boy named like that? That's not a good name! Wuyou was puzzled.

“It’s the Yue that transcends!”

"Oh, that's fine. Jiaojiao Yueyue, I think Jiaojiao Yueyue is also good..."

Wuyou looked at Jiaojiao's silver hair, which really looked like the Milky Way with moonlight pouring down, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Wuyou reaches out her hand, wanting to touch it so much, it’s so cute! Can she give me a hug?

“Ahhh…”

Jiaojiao stretched her hands into the air and scratched non-stop, tightly grasping the fingers that Wuyou extended to her, as if she had caught a fun toy, and giggled happily.

"Mother, mother, Jiaojiao must like me. Look, she is smiling so happily."

Little Yueyue watched as the adults were only busy teasing her sister. Her eyes rolled around and suddenly she felt a little aggrieved. She pouted her little mouth and burst into tears.

Why doesn’t anyone like me…I feel so wronged…

"Is he hungry? I'll carry him to find Amo!"

Xiling Heng walked forward, picked up Xiangze skillfully, rocked him gently and walked into the house.

Yan Mo heard the crying and tried to get up, but Xiang Liu held him back. Yan Mo had fed these two babies so well that they were actually a little big. Fortunately, they were born prematurely. If they had been born full-term, they would have been dystocia. Even so, her lower body was severely torn and she would have to lie still for a while.

"I'll go take a look, just lie still."

Before he could leave, Xiling Heng came in holding Xiangze.

"Amo, I came to see you, the little guy might be hungry!"

"Ah Heng, you're here. Where's Shaohao?"

"She's outside, making Jiaojiao happy with Wuyou."

Xiling Heng put Xiangze beside Yan Mo's bed. The little guy pouted with grievance and cried softly. His eyes were blurred by tears, but he knew that it was the smell of his mother, and his mother smelled sweet.

"Little Yueyue, are you feeling wronged again? Ah Heng, don't be fooled by him. He's just in a bad mood because no one wants to play with him. He just ate. Maybe someone was too busy entertaining Jiaojiao to notice him? I've observed him these past few days. He's a clingy person! He gets upset when no one is around."

Xiangliu took Xiangze and carried him out, leaving them to chat for a while longer.

"Haha, I see. You're really clever. Ah Mo, are you okay? I'm sorry, I didn't even know you were going to give birth."

"Isn't that Xiaoyao here? She was a famous midwife in her previous life. Hehe, she even asked Xiangyao if she wanted to help him with his infertility. Haha, I'm dying of laughter!"

"Haha, really? That's quite courageous!"

……

Yushan

Xuan stood there, stunned, through the barrier, staring at "Xiao Yao," who had fallen into a lifeless sleep within the formation. He was stunned for a long moment, his heart feeling like it was being pierced by countless needles, being tightly grasped, the pain unbearable. All the lies and concealments Xiao Yao had made towards him seemed unimportant. He just wanted her to get better soon. He could ignore her willfulness, and it was he who had let her down.

Xuanxuan secretly swore: As long as she gets better, he will keep her by his side, protect her well, and not let anyone hurt her.
