Chapter 320 My surname is Xiao
After the people left, the shopkeeper looked at the long street and sighed deeply. What a big deal! At least he could find the girl.
The waiter came forward and complained, "Boss, why didn't you keep that girl?"
The shopkeeper sighed and shook his head: "I wanted to do a good thing but failed miserably. That girl is so cunning, I can't keep her."
"Please don't meddle in other people's business next time. I just went to look for that young man and my legs were almost broken. You are doing good things, but we are the ones who are tired."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper laughed and patted the waiter on the head, "What do you know? I'll give you a snack at noon later!"
On the other side, Yongqi finally saw Xiaoyanzi's figure. With just one glance, he concluded that this was the Xiaoyanzi that he had been dreaming about.
"Xiaoyanzi! Don't run away. I know I was wrong. I was drugged. Can you give me a chance to explain?"
"Xiaoyanzi, I really can't live without you. Can you really bear to abandon me?"
Hearing Yongqi's shout, Xiaoyanzi paused. Was Yongqi being plotted against?
But thinking of the scene she saw that day, Xiaoyanzi quickened her pace. She didn't want to go back again. She didn't want to go back to that small courtyard and be surrounded by three maids to learn the rules.
Seeing that Xiaoyanzi didn't stop at all, Yongqi felt a little desperate. He looked at the cart next to the haystack on the side of the road, hardened his heart and jumped up with the help of the force.
Soon, the cart quickly went downhill to chase the little swallow.
The moment he caught up with Xiaoyanzi, Yongqi jumped down, knelt in front of Xiaoyanzi, blocking her way.
Xiaoyanzi was shocked to see Yongqi fall heavily to the ground.
After she realized what was happening, she turned around and tried to leave but Yongqi grabbed her arm.
Yongqi half-knelt on the ground, gasping in pain. He felt like his knees were about to break, but he still explained, "Xiaoyanzi, I was really plotted against. You know me. I only love you. I know you can't easily forgive what I did, but can you give me a chance to make a new beginning?"
Xiaoyanzi didn't answer. Yongqi grimaced in pain. "No matter what, you can't run away from home. I'm really worried about you. Come back with me, okay? You can beat me or scold me as you please, but I just ask you not to leave me."
Looking at Yongqi half-kneeling on the ground, Xiaoyanzi subconsciously wanted to reach out and help him up.
But Xiaoyanzi still held back and did not move.
She knew that she and Yongqi could never go back to the past. They had both changed. Even if they tried to reconcile now, there would still be conflicts in the future.
Concubine Yu did not accept her, and she could not adapt to the royal life. Xinrong and Cailian were in between. There were really too many obstacles between them.
"Yongqi, I'm not running away from home. I'm going to look for my relatives. Cailian told me before that I have relatives in Dali. I've been an orphan since I was a child. Can't I go and look for my last relatives?"
Hearing this, Yongqi pleaded anxiously, "But Dali is too far away. There are too many variables if you go there alone. You don't know anything. Going there rashly is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Why don't you wait until we get back and I send someone to Dali to look for your relatives?"
"At worst, I can bring them to the capital to accompany you after we find them, or I can go back with you to see them. You can't just leave now. Dali is so far away. How long will it take you to get there on your own?"
Xiaoyanzi also knew that what Yongqi said made sense, but she didn't want to go back at all. She would rather look for her relatives like looking for a needle in a haystack than go back and suffer.
Seeing that Xiaoyanzi didn't say anything, Yongqi stood up and pulled Xiaoyanzi back. "Xiaoyanzi, calm down. We all need to calm down. Give me some time to explain it to you clearly. Don't be angry, okay?"
Although Yongqi's tone was pleading, his actions were firm and unyielding.
Xiaoyanzi stumbled when she was pulled away, and her suppressed emotions burst out completely: "I already said I won't go back with you, can you please stop pestering me!"
Yongqi was not paying attention for a moment and his hand was violently slapped away.
He stubbornly pulled Xiaoyanzi up again, his expression serious and paranoid, "Xiaoyanzi, are you so heartless that you don't care about the friendship between us at all?"
"let me go!"
Xiaoyanzi couldn't shake off Yongqi's hand and was forced to be dragged back by him.
"Let me go!"
"I won't!" Yongqi's eyes were bloodshot. How could he let Xiaoyanzi go and let her run away again?
"She said let her go, didn't you hear her?"
Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged man standing there glaring at Yongqi.
Yongqi was getting irritated by the stares. He said impatiently, "Stop pretending to be a hero. Who gives you the right to meddle in other people's private affairs?"
The man clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Just because my last name is Xiao, do you think I can control it?"
"What's wrong with Xiao? My surname is Aisin Gioro. Stop interfering in our family affairs." She even dared to tell him her surname. No one in the entire Qing Dynasty dared to bother him, Aisin Gioro.
"Aisin-Gioro? I'm targeting you, Aisin-Gioro!"
Uncle Xiao stopped talking nonsense and raised his fist to hit the Fifth Prince in the face.
He has wanted to beat this unfaithful man for a long time.
This bastard, if he doesn't teach him a lesson today, he is unworthy of being Xiaoyanzi's uncle!
There was no way Yongqi could be Uncle Xiao's opponent. Under Uncle Xiao's angry iron fist, Yongqi had no chance to fight back. He was very depressed. "Are you sick? Did we provoke you?"
Xiaoyanzi froze the moment she saw the middle-aged man.
It wasn't until a long time later, when the Fifth Prince was beaten so badly that he could only lie on the ground with his head in his hands, that Xiaoyanzi finally called out in a hoarse voice, "Uncle?"
Uncle Xiao, who was full of anger, stopped immediately when he heard the word "uncle".
He looked at Xiaoyanzi, his eyes reddened, "Hey, Yun'er, uncle is here to see you."
It was not until this moment that Yongqi suddenly realized that Xiao Yanzi's real name was Xiao Yun! No wonder this person said his last name was Xiao!
For a moment, Yongqi felt ashamed and scared. Why was he so irrational in front of Xiaoyanzi, his elder?
He hurriedly got up from the ground and bowed.
"Uncle, uncle."
Uncle Xiao ignored Yongqi and stepped forward to examine Xiaoyanzi several times, his expression somewhat moved. "Yun'er, you look a lot like my eldest brother and his wife. You don't need to ask me to know that you are our child."
Hearing this, Xiaoyanzi's tears instantly rolled down her cheeks. Her uncle actually came to see her.
Seeing Xiaoyanzi crying, Uncle Xiao hurriedly took out a handkerchief and handed it to Xiaoyanzi, saying softly, "Let's go back to the capital first. Your aunt is still waiting for you there. Don't let her worry."
"Now that my uncle has found you, I will never let you suffer any injustice again. Let's go back."
Yongqi, who was ignored on the side, also knew that he had done something wrong. He didn't dare to say anything and just followed the two of them dejectedly.
Looking at Yongqi who was beaten to a limp, and then looking at her uncle, Xiaoyanzi felt warm in her heart. She also had relatives to support her.
