Chapter 970: Extremely Extraordinary
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Empress Dowager Yunzi sat inside and didn’t come out. She only sat in the carriage, her face was filled with fatigue as she sized up Xue Yan.
Even though Xue Yan was young, he already had a bearing mark of a man, making people feel that he was very extraordinary just by looking at him.
He was also good-looking and did look like her grandson. She still had some impression of her grandson’s appearance when he was still in swaddling clothes.
Furthermore, Xue Yan was very polite at a glance. He was completely not what Wei Zizhan had acted like.
If this child was really her grandson, she would naturally be extremely satisfied.
Empress Dowager Yunzi was just about to speak when she heard movement in the carriage behind her. It was probably the Imperial Censor and the Minister of Justice who heard Xue Yan bow to her and wanted to get off the carriage to take a look. She said to a servant beside her who was protecting her, “Go to the back and tell them that they don’t need to come down. They must be tired. If there is anything, we can talk about it tomorrow morning. I’m feeling quite tired myself.”
It had been many years since she had fought in a battle like tonight. She was indeed getting old, and she had suffered too many injuries when she was young. Now that she is older, she is often plagued by illness. Now, she could not help but slow down.
Moreover, the Imperial Censor was already 80 years old. After tonight’s torment, the Imperial Censor’s body must have been even more overwhelmed than hers.
“As you wish.” The attendant immediately went to the carriage at the back and spoke to the Imperial Censor and the Minister of Justice who were in a hurry to get down from the carriage.
The Minister of Justice was younger than the Imperial Censor. He was supporting the trembling Imperial Censor and was about to get off the carriage when he suddenly heard this. He accepted the order and did not get off the carriage.
Empress Dowager Yunzi smiled kindly at Xue Yan below, but her face looked haggard. ‘Let’s have a good chat tomorrow.”
“Yes.” Xue Yan still bowed and agreed.
Only then did Empress Dowager Yunzi close her old eyes and lean against the carriage.
Hui Xiang lowered the curtain.
Xue Yan looked at Jiang Yue. Only then did Jiang Yue climb onto the carriage that Empress Dowager Yunzi was in and sat outside.
When Xue Yan saw Jiang Yue get on the carriage safely, he got on the horse again.
Jiang Yue saw him get on a horse. She had never seen him ride a horse before, but she was not surprised that he knew how to ride one. It was not difficult to ride a horse. He must have learned how to ride it in his previous life.
Before Shao Zhongxi mounted his horse, he had already ordered someone to return to Quanping Inn and prepare the rooms for the Empress Dowager, Imperial Censor, and Minister of Justice.
When Jiang Yue and Xue Yan arrived at Quanping Inn’s entrance, Quanping Inn’s shopkeeper had already brought a few people to wait at the entrance.
Empress Dowager Yunzi was helped out of the carriage by Hui Xiang.
In the carriage behind them, the Minister of Justice also got off.
The moment Xue Yan saw the Minister of Justice, the corners of his mouth quivered almost imperceptibly.
In his previous life, the scene of the Qing family being massacred but risking their lives to protect him appeared in his mind.
However, the Minister of Justice in his previous life was much older than now.
Right now, this Minister of Justice was only in his fifties. However, in his previous life, Emperor Yi had already succeeded the throne when he became an official.
The Minister of Justice got off the carriage and turned around to help the Imperial Censor out of the carriage.
Only after he helped the Imperial Censor down did he notice Xue Yan looking at him..
