The Emperor’s Favorite Empress

Chapter 481: [292] Things are going to change

Views:

The night view of Junzhou doesn't look as bright as Yunhai City. It always feels hazy, as if it is covered by fog. But it is not completely covered, but looming, making people unable to see clearly and curious to break through the fog.

"Don't be afraid, mother. Yu'er will protect you..."

Xia Junyu had fallen asleep without knowing when, her small body lying obediently on the bed. She didn't know what she was dreaming about, her curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and she murmured these words through her red little mouth.

Ling'er, who was originally standing in front of the window looking at the night scene, turned around after hearing her son's voice and saw this scene.

She smiled, and her smile was filled with satisfaction and sweetness. No matter how her life ended, she was truly satisfied with having this son.

But this child, at such a young age, had such a heavy heart. He took on all the burdens that should have been on her.

She still clearly remembered that the first thing he said was that he wanted to manage Yunhai City.

So young, and just learning to speak.

At that time, she thought it was just a joke of a child, but what happened later completely changed her mind.

Xia Junyu had matured when he was very young. He worked hard to learn various skills, improve his cultivation, and take charge of the affairs of Yunhai City, taking good care of his mother.

Only then did she realize that he was serious about what he said.

When Ling'er came to her senses, she had subconsciously walked to Xia Junyu's window.

Reach out and tuck the quilt in for him.

Looking at this little face that is so stunningly beautiful even before it opens its eyes, I feel like happiness is overflowing.

This time, the main purpose was to let Xia Junyu find the feeling of being a child, and have the childhood that other children should have, instead of being buried in memorials to state affairs and intrigues of all sizes all day long.

If he doesn't leave Yunhai City, Yu'er will not be able to let go of that responsibility.

This child is always so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

"Mother, Yu'er must become stronger and protect you..."

Even when sleeping, she couldn't forget to become stronger and protect her. As a mother, she was not as competent as this child.

My dear son, you don’t have to work so hard. I will create a good future for you and protect you all your life.

Smiling at Xia Junyu who was still dreaming, she took off her shoes, got on the bed, lay down beside him, then hugged him and closed her eyes.

The spiritual power in Junzhou is stronger than other places. A magical scene appeared in the sky above Junzhou. All the spiritual energy gathered in one direction and then continuously entered the bodies of the mother and son.

Above the sky where spiritual energy gathered, a white-haired old man stood in the air, staring motionlessly at the room where Ling'er and her son were, as if he could see through the room.

"Who on earth is cultivating again? This is the second time in my life that I have seen such a dense and concentrated spiritual energy. It seems that Junzhou is about to change..."

As the old man spoke, he stroked his beard with his hands.

There was no greed in the old eyes, but they were filled with appreciation and admiration.

"However, if such a gathering of spiritual energy is seen by those with evil intentions, it may cause unnecessary trouble. Never mind. Since I have bumped into you, I will help you." After saying this, the old man raised his hand and drew a few times in the void, then pushed towards the house where Ling'er lived, and a transparent barrier covered up the scene.

After doing all this, the old man nodded with satisfaction, then stepped into the air and disappeared into the night.

Just after the old man left, Yao Lao, who was sleeping next to Ling'er, opened his eyes.

"This boy from the Jun family is still as upright as he was back then." However, it was his integrity that saved his life. If he dared to have any evil intentions, even Sergio would have killed him today, even at the risk of being caught by that brat.

This time, let’s just say that he owes the Jun family a favor.

If there is a chance in the future, he will definitely help the Jun family.

He turned over and continued to sleep.

In fact, Ling'er was not unaware of the consequences of having Xiaofen around her. She was just not on guard on purpose.

Coming to Junzhou, she had to attract some attention. She had never been a low-key person. She didn't cause trouble, but she wasn't afraid of it. If she really attracted some villains, she would just deal with them. Of course, this was just one of her intentions.

In addition, she also wanted to get to know Yao Lao better. She felt that Yao Lao was not as simple as he seemed.

Since her son likes him, she has to keep a close eye on him. She must not keep a person with bad intentions around her. Physical injuries are a small matter, but if you are hurt by someone you care about and consider close to you, that is really painful.

Her Yu'er must not be hurt like this.

So what happened on this page was naturally within Ling'er's expectations.

On the other side, a certain noble who was chasing the old man who ran away from home lost the old man's trace after chasing him for thousands of miles.

"Your Majesty, the old man's scent has disappeared here. It's strange, why did it disappear suddenly?" Could it be that the old man knew that Your Majesty used Erlang to lead the way, so he used some method to hide the scent

That's not right. The temperature is getting colder and colder.

A shadow guard who was trying hard to think of the reason couldn't help but shudder.

Following this cool air, I could see that the Lord was emitting a low pressure of who knows how many degrees below zero. This was... angry.

That’s right, a certain shadow guard revealed the truth.

Their master was indeed angry, and very angry.

Because he just realized now that he had been tricked by the old man.

The smell suddenly disappeared, it was definitely not hidden as the shadow guard thought. Instead, the old man knew that they brought Erlang out, so he deliberately created a false smell.

At this moment, the old man must have been leaving them behind and enjoying himself for who knows how long!

"Let's go back."

He remembered that Erlang paused for a moment on the road, and that should be where the old man went down.

"Hmm? Go back? Your Excellency, aren't we going to look for the old master anymore?" Could it be that Your Excellency has come to his senses and wants to let the old master go out and play for a few days? Or has Your Excellency given up because there is no clue about the old master

It shouldn't be.

This is not like your Majesty's style.

Looking back, every time the old master came out secretly, the master would spare no effort to search for him until he found him.

What happened this time? It's so strange.

In fact, Your Majesty is also very filial, and only the old master could make Your Majesty work so hard.

If the old lord had not recovered from his old illness and was unable to use his spiritual power, His Majesty would not have been so unreasonable as to not let the old lord leave the palace.

But the old master is a person who cannot stand quietness. Not only is he not allowed to go out by his master all day, but he also has to drink bitter medicine soup every day. How can the old master not run away

Therefore, in their underground palace, the old master would try to escape every now and then, but he would always be caught by his own master.

Why...

It's really pitiful that Your Majesty is so filial. I don't know when my old master will understand, so he would do such a thing that makes Your Majesty worry.

While the shadow guard was lost in thought, the master and servant had already traveled a hundred miles.

An hour later, the Lord stopped unexpectedly. The shadow guard who was wandering in the sky almost bumped into the back of the Lord.

Looking at himself who was less than an inch away from the black robe in front of him, the shadow guard took a deep breath.

That was a close call!

It almost hit it.

Thinking back to my master's obsessive-compulsive disorder, if he really bumped into him, then this day next year would probably be my death anniversary!

"It's right here." After saying that, he jumped down.

"What is this place?" This was the first sentence I said after landing.

"If you would like to know what your Excellency said, this is the border of the Sea of Clouds. To the south is the Demon Realm, and to the east is Junzhou. It is said that the old man of the Jun family will be out of retreat in the next few days. I guess Junzhou should be very lively at this moment. Yes, why didn't I think of it? According to the old master's playful personality, he might have gone to Junzhou to join in the fun."

Oh, he can think of such a complicated problem, he can't be smarter.

That’s right, maybe the old master went to Junzhou.

Otherwise, why would Your Majesty return here

If I really guessed it right this time, then it would be a great achievement.

Hahaha...

Looking at the shadow guard who was secretly grinning to himself, thinking about something unknown, a certain Lord frowned slightly.

As expected, like masters, like subordinates. These shadow guards have been led astray by their master. They are so thick-skinned that it really gives me a headache.

"In that case, I will go to Jun Mansion and sit for a while." After saying that, the two of them disappeared on the spot.

Originally, Xia Junyu left Yunhai City to avoid the marriage envoy sent by the damn Demon Lord, but after hiding for a long time, he ended up meeting the real owner...

So it’s all fate.

The flying Demon Lord glanced towards the roof where Ling'er and others lived, and his dark eyes narrowed slightly.

Haha, it seems that Junzhou is quite interesting.

Early the next morning, the small kitchen of the inn was occupied by a small figure.

This small kitchen was originally built for a wealthy businessman many years ago.

Because the rich businessman was so rich, he would ask for special treatment wherever he went. After he left Junzhou, no one used the kitchenette anymore.

After all, the boss was a shrewd man. Making demands was like telling people that you wanted to be ripped off. Gradually, this small kitchen became unused.

But before daybreak, the shopkeeper was called by a small figure and then opened the small kitchen.

Xia Junyu held the last bowl of soup he had just made and nodded with satisfaction.

Jade buns, white jade soup, Ruyi vegetables, and golden soup.

These dishes are a combination of meat and vegetables, with bright colors and suitable tastes. Most importantly, the names are majestic and domineering.

Xia Ling'er would definitely like these names alone.

The shopkeeper, who had not left because he was curious about what the villain was going to do, was completely stunned after seeing this scene.

What kind of relationship is this? To have such a filial son who is both capable of housework and cooking, what good deeds must have been done in the previous life? The ancestors’ graves must be filled with joy.

Envy, jealousy and hatred.

Xia Junyu had known that the shopkeeper was watching from the side, but he ignored him because he did not do anything inappropriate.

If you want to watch it, then watch it.

When you go out, you must keep a low profile and not cause trouble for your mother.

So Xia Junyu spent the whole morning cooking obediently, without using any spiritual power, and without revealing any of his cultivation techniques.

After all, in the eyes of these mortals, he is just a child.

"Mom, breakfast is ready, come out and eat."

His mother's health has not been good since he was born, so he worked hard to practice cooking in order to take good care of his mother.

Besides, he was just in case.

If some wild man comes to snatch my mother from me in the future, I will have an extra bargaining chip.

As the old saying goes, if you want to win a woman's heart, you must first win her stomach.

...

Hearing her son's call, Ling'er woke up slowly from her sleep. Her eyelids rolled up, revealing her purple eyes with a layer of mist.

But it only took a moment for it to turn black.

He subconsciously touched his side, but his little baby was gone.

This child always wakes up so early.

It was like this when I was in Yunhai City, and now I don’t even relax when I’m playing outside.

"Mom, hurry up and eat. It's delicious."

Xia Junyu's soft voice was heard again, and Ling'er stood up immediately.

However, the first person to arrive at the dinner table was Yao Lao.

"Wow, these dishes look so delicious. My dear grandson, where did you buy this breakfast from? It smells so good." While speaking, he kept sniffing, absorbing the aroma wafting from the food.

It's so appetizing just by smelling it. If you take a bite, it will definitely taste amazing.

Hahaha.

Fortunately, I was smart and escaped from the hands of my unfilial son. Otherwise, how could I have encountered such a delicious dish.

In the underground palace, he was fed with porridge and side dishes every day, and he almost ate as much as a rabbit.

Look at these brightly colored dishes, they make me drool just by looking at them.

He sat down with his hands clenched, picked up the food and wanted to start eating.

But just before the chopsticks were about to touch the food, Yao Lao's movements suddenly stopped.

Hmmmm...

He seemed to remember something, quickly retracted the chopsticks he had extended, and then sat down with a serious face.

I almost forgot that my precious grandson’s mother hasn’t come yet.

Although they had not spent too much time together, he was well aware of his precious grandson's protectiveness.

If there was any weak spot for his precious grandson in this world, the first one would definitely be his mother.

So, the main person hasn't arrived yet, no matter how much he wants to eat, he has to wait.

Looking at the delicious food in front of him that kept waving at him, Yao Lao was crying in his heart.

I want to eat it so much, what should I do

"Grandpa, if you are hungry, just eat first." Xia Junyu saw the thoughts written on Yao Lao's face and spoke slowly.

Hey, it’s time to eat.

He knew that his precious grandson still loved him.

I know that the elderly are not as resistant to hunger as they are old, so they should eat first.

Not bad, not bad, good grandson.

Then, she narrowed her eyes, looked at Xia Junyu with a touching face and said, "Don't worry, wait for your mother to come together."

As soon as he said it, he regretted it.

Woo woo woo.

He didn't mean to say that.

Why did he say this

But just when he was regretting and feeling annoyed, a clear voice came again, "Grandpa, you can eat it. It's okay."

Oh, I'm so touched.

"Anyway, mother doesn't eat this. Yu'er made it for her over there."

...

Following Xia Junyu's line of sight, sure enough, not far from the table, there was a screen. Behind the screen was a table of delicious food.

Before he saw the food on the table, he thought it was delicious, but now, his heart is broken.

My great grandson, how can you be so partial to one and ignore the other

And in front of his old man!

Woo woo woo.

It felt like the health bar was instantly wiped out by the ultimate move released by my baby Sun.

His eyes were filled with water as he looked at his grandson pitifully.

Unfortunately, Xia Junyu didn’t have time to see it.

"Mom, you're here." Before he even saw Xia Ling'er, Xia Junyu had already sensed his mother approaching and ran towards the door.

Just like that, Yao Lao was once again completely ignored...

I can't afford to be hurt.

If I had a father, why would I have a mother

Oh, Heaven, oh, Earth, why do you treat him so cruelly

Xia Ling'er opened her arms, looked at Xia Junyu who was rushing towards her, and hugged him in her arms.

"Yu'er, you are a little kid, why are you getting up so early? Since you are out playing, you should be more relaxed. Your mother won't be angry even if you stay in bed and act like a spoiled brat like other kids."
