Chapter 67.2 – Personally Fernt Their Wedding Wine (2)
T/N: Chapter (7/12) sponsored by Madam Daim! Thank you supporting this novel!
Hearing Han Ming Yi’s words, Du Xiao Li’s heart suddenly jumped. Seeing his body now filled with a sharp aura,
greatly differing from that little boy back then. These probably were all ford from fighting in close quarters on
the battlefield.
She previously had heard Ji Liu Xia say, that year the previous emperor had suddenly passed away, and the then
only twenty year old Han Ming Ze succeeded the throne. Then, a coup occurred in Phoenix city, letting Feng Ming
who was situated at the center of all the countries once again beco a delicacy in the eyes of the other countries.
Quite a few countries all once sent troops to invade Feng Ming before.
In the beginning, the battle progressed very difficultly. In order to stabilize the army morale, the then only fourteen
year old Han Ming Yi thus headed to the army camp, and afterwards, followed the army to the borders to fight.
Relying on his exceptional talent in military affairs, he assisted the Great General, Li Lun, repel wave after wave of
invasion, preserving Feng Ming’s land in the process. He also stabilized the wavering foundation of their country,
becoming a country that others won’t dare to casually invade.
And he, also because of his outstanding military achievents again and again, got bestowed the title Ding Wang by
the emperor, taking the aning ‘to stabilize(Ding) and bring peace to the country’. However, at the sa ti, he
also beca the thorn in the eyes of the other countries, and would frequently get attacked by assassins and
whatnot.
Du Xiao Li and Han Ming Yi was observing Leng Yi and the other’s fighting the whole ti. Although the seven of
them worked together in coordination well, but unfortunately, the other side had more people, and they faintly
showed signs of retreating a little in defeat. Looks like, the other party very much understood Leng Yi and the
other’s abilities. The people they sent all weren’t weak in strength.
“You stay here and don’t move.” Han Ming Yi glanced at Du Xiao Li, and after seeing her nod her head, he finally
let go of her hand and shouted towards the people that were currently fighting, “Leng Yi, Leng Er, you two
withdraw back and protect Li’er.”
With that said, he then ran to Leng Yi and the other’s position, and switched places with Leng Yi and Leng Er.
Leng Yi and Leng Er obviously knew Han Ming Yi’s abilities, thus after hearing his orders, swiftly withdrew and
ca to Du Xiao Li’s side.
This was Du Xiao Li’s first ti seeing Han Ming Yi kill people. His figure was quick like a cunning rabbit, with
every attack like a ferocious dragon, fast, strong, and precise, seemingly all were a one-hit kill. The ones that Leng
Yi and them had struggled against just now, in front of him, were just like fruits waiting to be cut.
“So strong!” Du Xiao Li couldn’t help exclaiming in admiration.
Although if she were to use ‘wind blowing snow’, Han Ming Yi may not necessarily be able to beat her, but the ti
she’s spent on practicing martial arts these years was rather high, while Han Ming Yi has been instead plagued by
various miscellaneous tasks. In comparison, Han Ming Yi was indeed very impressive.
As soon as Han Ming Yi joined the fight, the opponent’s strength began to dwindle, letting the Leng brothers’
pressure instantly reduce by quite a bit.
Just then, marching sounds ca from a path to the side. Du Xiao Li turned her head to look. It was the army!
After the army ca, the discrepancy between the two sides’ power appeared even more obvious. And Han Ming
Yi also, after the army arrived, returned to Du Xiao Li’s side, coldly watching the n in black get killed or caught.
“Wangye, the all assassins have already been apprehended.” A military officer ca before Han Ming Yi, cupping
both hands.
“Take back to interrogate.” Han Ming Yi said, “Careful not to let them commit suicide.”
“Yes, this subordinate will take them back right away.” The officer finished saying and then lead the army and
assassins away, even taking away the corpses as well.
Han Ming Yi looked to Du Xiao Li’s face, not seeing the slightest look of panic, and sighed at her courage. He
recalled a few years ago, that ti when they’d encountered assassins in Zhou county. It was also the sa then; she
not only didn’t panic, she instead even calmly treated Leng San and him.
Thinking of few years ago, he also recalled that kiss that wasn’t considered a first kiss.
“Alright, let’s go back then.” Han Ming Yi said.
Du Xiao Li nodded and followed Han Ming Yi back onto the horse carriage. Leng Yi and them also got on their
own horses, and the party continued heading towards the city.
Because of the assassination attempt just now, when they arrived at the city gates, the gates were already closed.
Leng Yi took Han Ming Yi’s plaque to go let the gate guards open the gate. And the horse carriage finally was able
to enter the city.
Du Xiao Li pulled open the back window curtains, seeing the once again closed city gates, and thinking to herself,
Han Ming Yi’s influence was sure big. When the city gates were closed, aside from the emperor, even if it was the
crown prince outside the city, they all didn’t have the power to let them open the gate. But, the imperial guards that
were guarding the gates, upon seeing Han Ming Yi’s plaque, imdiately had the gates opened. It can be seen how
high his position was in Feng Ming.
“What are you thinking about?” Seeing Du Xiao Li deep in thought, Han Ming Yi softly asked.
Du Xiao Li put down the window curtains and turned around, “Big brother Yi, you all knew that there would be
assassins today?”
Han Ming Yi saw Du Xiao Li’s confident look, and slightly smiled, “What makes you think that?”
“The other party had that many people, but you all weren’t surprised at all. Moreover, you all didn’t send out a help
signal, yet those troops still rushed over. The army camp is still so distance from the assassination location,
right?”
“Hehe, I just knew you would guess it.” Han Ming Yi said. He’d always believed that when Du Xiao Li was little,
although she sotis didn’t put so things to mind, it wasn’t that she didn’t understand, but rather she just
wasn’t interested in knowing, that’s all. These things, as long as she thought about it, she’ll be able to guess it.
“You’re right. We were already long aware that soone would co try an assassinate.”
“Then, today, you purposefully accompanied out of the city in order to create an opportunity to draw them out?”
Du Xiao Li asked gloomily.
“Not really.” Han Ming Yi explained, “After I’d returned to the capital, I noticed soone watching . In the
beginning, I’d thought that it was soone in the capital. But afterwards, Leng Yi and them caught one and
discovered their appearance was like soone of the northern countries. Thus, we concluded that the others should
be outside the city. If I didn’t follow you out of the city today, I would’ve gone out tomorrow. Just, after hearing you
wanted to co out, I temporarily decided to accompany you.”
“Oh.” Du Xiao Li returned a simple response and didn’t say anything else.
“Angry?” Han Ming Yi looked to Du Xiao Li’s appearance and asked.
“No.” Du Xiao Li denied, but she also couldn’t describe what she was feeling inside, only feeling a little strange.
When the horse carriage passed by Niu Jing’s house, Du Xiao Li let them stop for a while and shared half of the
grapes with Niu Jing and Tong Tong, before finally returning to the Pri Minister Manor.
“Directly have the horse carriage driven to the rear courtyard.” Du Xiao Li said.
“Alrighty wangfei.” The one driving was Leng Qi, and upon hearing Du Xiao Li’s words, had the horse carriage
circled all the way around the Pri Minister Manor to the back gate.
Leng Yi and them helped Du Xiao Li have the wine jars and half a basket of grapes moved into her courtyard.
Because Han Ming Yi had his own additional basket of grapes, Du Xiao Li didn’t leave him anything else.
“Thank you for today, big brother Yi. See you later.” Du Xiao Li jump down from the horse carriage and waved her
hand towards Han Ming Yi, before turning around and entering the Du Manor.
Han Ming Yi watched Du Xiao Li disappear inside, before finally putting down the curtains, “Return.”
The horse carriage slowly left the Du Manor. In the horse carriage, Han Ming Yi looked to the two jars of wine. One
jar he’d fernted himself, and one jar was fernted by Du Xiao Li. Recalling her appearance teaching him how to
fernt wine in the afternoon, the corner of his mouth raised upwards. Soon after, he closed his eyes and nodded
off.
As soon as Du Xiao Li entered the Du Manor, soone called out to her.
“Third sister.”
Du Xiao Li looked to Du Xue Qi who’d appeared out of nowhere. She stopped her steps and asked, “Xue Qi, how
co you’re here?”
“I just ate dinner with mother and ca out to digest the food.” Du Xue Qi pointed to a pavilion next to the pond.
Du Xiao Li followed her finger and looked over, seeing Xie Yu currently sitting in the pavilion, absentmindedly
staring at the water. “Third sister, how co you ca back this late, have you eaten dinner yet?”
Facing Du Xue Qi’s large innocent eyes, Du Xiao Li reached out and patted her head, “Because I had so business
to take care of, I ca back late. Let’s go over and greet your mother.”
“Okay.” Du Xue Qi replied with a smile, and pulled along Du Xiao Li’s hand as they walked towards the pavilion.
