Chapter 355: There’s No Problem With My Legs and Waist

Su Ying raised her eyebrows. “What is it?”

“Celerity skill. As long as she knows how to circulate her energy and her body is light enough, it won’t be that difficult to master.”

After Xiao Jin finished speaking, he picked up a fallen leaf from the ground and threw it into the air. The leaf was blown into the air by the wind. He tapped the ground with the tip of his toes and landed on the stone pillar in the corridor.

Su Ying saw Xiao Jin’s body soar into the sky like a wild heron. He then stepped on the floating leaf with the tip of his toes and leaped onto the roof.

Su Ying watched as the fallen leaf swayed in the air. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Jin had returned to her side.

“If she masters this celerity skill, even if she can’t fight, it shouldn’t be difficult for her to flee.”

As she watched Xiao Jin’s almost weightless and deft figure, Su Ying felt that this was a good idea. When the time was right, she would teach Ling some pharmacological knowledge. After learning it for a while, it should not be a problem for her to defend herself.

Thirty minutes later, Su Ying led the children into the house for breakfast. As soon as the family of four sat down, a servant announced that Duke Zhenguo had arrived.

Xiao Jin had no choice but to put down his chopsticks and get someone to invite Duke Zhenguo to the front courtyard.

As soon as Xiao Jin arrived, Duke Zhenguo entered the hall. He was dragging a person in his hand. That person had been beaten until his face had turned black and blue. If one didn’t look closely, one really wouldn’t be able to tell that this person was Fu Jun.

The moment Xiao Jin saw Fu Jun, his eyes emitted a strong killing intent. He only restrained his killing intent slightly when Duke Zhenguo approached him.

Duke Zhenguo threw Fu Jun to the ground like a rag. With a flick of his long robe, he knelt in front of Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin’s sharp brows knitted together at once. Duke Zhenguo was almost like a father to Xiao Jin. He could not accept such a great show of respect.

Xiao Jin turned his body sideways to avoid accepting that respectful gesture. “Lord Duke, you’d better get up. You’re not the one in the wrong.”

However, Duke Zhenguo’s face remained tense. “Yes, I’m not the one who did something stupid. However, I’m responsible for giving birth to something worse than a beast. I brought this idiot here today to beg Your Highness to spare his disgraceful life. Take it as a way to repay my previous friendship with Your Highness.”

After Duke Zhenguo finished speaking, he took out a thick and long tree vine and offered it to Xiao Jin to exact punishment with it.

“I am shameless. As long as Your Highness can spare his disgraceful life, no matter how Your Highness beats him, I won’t utter a single word of complaint.”

Xiao Jin looked at Duke Zhenguo and frowned deeply. When he looked at Fu Jun, who was lying on the ground, the killing intent in his eyes instantly erupted.

He picked up the tree vine and whipped it viciously against Fu Jun’s body. “Argh!”

Fu Jun immediately cried out in pain, “Spare me, spare me, Your Highness. I… I won’t dare to do it again. I won’t dare to do it again…”

However, no matter how much he begged for mercy, the tree vine in Xiao Jin’s hand did not show any signs of relenting.

Duke Zhenguo’s face was very tense and his fists were tightly clenched. No matter how angry he was and no matter how stupid his son was, this fellow was still his son. Now, he could only watch helplessly as his son was beaten. His heart ached unbearably, but his son deserved it!

Pow! Pow! Pow! The tree vine continued to lash out.

Fu Jun’s begging voice gradually weakened.

Xiao Jin only stopped gradually when Fu Jun could no longer make a sound. He then tossed the tree vine on the floor.

“I leave him one breath of life as my repayment to Lord Duke for saving my life back then. From now on, we don’t owe each other anything.”

Duke Zhenguo’s eyes were red-rimmed as he kowtowed solemnly to Xiao Jin. “Thank you for sparing his life, Your Highness.”

Duke Zhenguo stood up after he finished speaking. He then hauled Fu Jun up, who had only one breath left, from the ground. His tall and straight back seemed to have aged a lot at that moment he turned around, and even his back had become hunched.

“Your Highness, Lord Duke has also sent many things over. He said that he wanted to thank Your Highness for saving his eldest grandson.”

Xiao Jin’s face was emotionless as he replied indifferently, “Just accept them.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

When Xiao Jin returned to the courtyard, Su Ying and the others hadn’t eaten their fill yet. He sat down beside Su Ying and picked up a bun to eat.

Su Ying glanced at him and saw the hostility in his eyes. She couldn’t help feeling curious. “What’s wrong?”

“I let Fu Jun off.”

Su Ying’s expression froze momentarily. “You let him off easily?”

“I stopped before his final breath.”

Su Ying took a sip of porridge, her face was devoid of emotion. “My bottom line is that he should become a cripple.”

Ling had said that the person who abducted her was Fu Jun, so he deserved to die!

However, this guy was related to Duke Zhenguo. At most, she would only allow him to live the rest of his life as a half-dead cripple.

Xiao Jin had already broken the tendons in Fu Jun’s hands and legs when he whipped him. It would be difficult for him not to be crippled for the rest of his life.

“Mm-hmm.”

Due to Fu Jun’s matter, the couple ate the meal in silence.

The two little ones also felt that the atmosphere was not right, so they obediently kept quiet at the dining table.

After eating his fill, Xiao Jin took on the task of teaching Ji, while Su Ying brought Ling to another empty room.

Ling was a little curious. “Mother, what are we going to do?”

“Today, Mother will teach you how to identify medicinal herbs.”

After saying that, Su Ying asked Bai Shuang to bring in a dozen or so herbs that looked very similar.

Ling looked at the medicinal herbs with curiosity. “Mother, are these all medicinal herbs?”

“Yes. Other than practicing how to circulate your energy and learning how to read today, what you have to do is to identify these medicinal herbs.”

Su Ying picked up a medicinal herb and patiently explained it to Ling. In the past, Ling would always be absent-minded when Chu Yun gave the children lessons, but when Su Ying explained the characteristics and uses of these medicinal herbs, Ling became exceptionally interested and asked a lot of questions enthusiastically.

Su Ying patiently answered all her queries.

While a peaceful atmosphere enveloped Prince Qi’s Manor, the atmosphere in many other residences became more and more tense.

In the Imperial prison, Xiao Jue still could not figure out why the box containing the dragon robe had appeared in his mansion.

He had clearly instructed Zhang Shuming to hide the box in Xiao Jin’s back courtyard!

That was right. After learning that Xiao Jin had asked Zhang Shuming to return to Prince Qi’s Manor, Xiao Jue had found someone to secretly bribe Zhang Shuming and get him to pa.s.s on the news inside Prince Qi’s Manor to him. Zhang Shuming had also done as he was told.

Could it be that Zhang Shuming had been feigning allegiance to him and had been lying to him from the beginning?

The more Xiao Jue thought about it, the more he felt that the probability was high.

“G.o.dd.a.m.n eunuch dog, I’ll make you pay when I get out!”

Even though he was in prison now, Xiao Jue didn’t think he would really be beheaded.

He knew very well that the Grand Mentor needed to keep him alive, so they would find a way to save him no matter what it took!

When he got out, he would definitely tear everyone in Prince Qi’s Manor to pieces!

Night fell.

Su Ying coaxed the two little ones to sleep before returning to her room.

Xiao Jin, who was dressed in a snow-white inner robe, sat on the bed. Due to the injuries on his shoulders, his two hands were not very agile.

“What are you doing?”

Xiao Jin didn’t even raise his head when he heard her voice. “I feel that the wound is a little damp. 1 wonder if it has opened up again.”

Upon hearing this, Su Ying stepped forward and took off his inner robe, revealing the bandages wrapped around his wounds. True enough, there was a patch of red on it, indicating that blood was oozing out.

Su Ying took a pair of scissors and cut the bandages, revealing the wound on Xiao Jin’s shoulder. There was no problem with the st.i.tches on the wound, but the blood might have seeped out when he moved. “I’ll help you apply some medicine to it again. You have to keep your shoulder stable for the next few days and not move it around needlessly.”

Su Ying had just finished treating Xiao Jin’s wound when he pulled her into his arms.

Su Ying looked at the pa.s.sion blazing in the depths of his eyes and raised an eyebrow. “You can’t move your shoulders.”

“My waist and legs are fine.”

“Get lost..”
