- Chapter 429 - Extra 2 Story: Wei Luo Chasing His Wife (Wu Luo + Yin Hui time travelled back together)
Though her nose was red from the cold, she enjoyed this kind of freedom, and her heart felt warm.
If a person was in a good mood, they would be happy even if they were cold and hungry, but if they were in a bad mood, they wouldn’t smile even when faced with mountains of gold and silver.
While riding, just as Yin Hui slowed down and was about to take a break, there was a sudden burst of crying from the corner of the official road ahead.
Just by hearing the hoofbeats, one could tell it was a team of good horses.
Yin Hui moved to the side of the official road ahead of time, and at the same time, she patted Fei Xu’s neck, signaling it not to worry.
As they drew closer, the horse team on the opposite side also came into view.
The leader, dressed in a dark brocade robe, possessed a strong body and a handsome, majestic face, appearing to be only about thirty years old.
Another person might not recognize the individuals, but Yin Hui did. It was her father-in-law, King Yan, from her previous life.
Following King Yan were all familiar faces: Wei Yang, Wei Yan, Wei Luo, Wei Xuan, and Wei Jing, who was too young to come along. The others were guards.
At this moment, Yin Hui wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in!
“It’s better to hit the sun than to choose the day. How could I be so unlucky!”
Although Yin Hui really wished she could disappear into the ground, there was no such option available. So, she quickly dismounted while there was still some distance between them and hid behind the horse.
King Yan, in a good mood after his recent victory, had taken his sons out for a horse race early in the morning and was now on their way home.
As they turned the corner, they saw a group of people ahead. The leader, a thin young man, seemed to hide quickly, and King Yan didn’t see his face clearly. However, the eight guards standing neatly by the side of the road caught his attention.
In the recent battle with the Jin Kingdom, King Yan lost thousands of elite soldiers, and he would be recruiting new soldiers in the coming year.
Seeing these eight guards, King Yan thought they looked very promising. Their height and body shape suggested they would make excellent additions to his guard.
Appreciating talent, King Yan rode a certain distance before turning his horse’s head to return.
Upon seeing this, Yin Hui’s heart, which had just been relieved, tightened once more. Under the cover of the sound of horseshoes, she whispered to the eight guards, “That is a nobleman. Don’t act rashly.”
Yin Hui was afraid that the guards might not recognize King Yan and might mistakenly think that the father and son were there to cause trouble, so she urged them not to act rashly.
When the eight guards heard her warning, they immediately composed themselves, trying to avoid any hint of provocation.
King Yan reigned on his horse, glanced at the eight men, and asked with a smile, “Are the eight strong men willing to serve this King?”
The eight guards felt a sudden realization—they had been addressed by King Yan himself! In Yandi, only King Yan could refer to himself as the king.
Would they dare to reject King Yan’s offer?
They might not dare, but they were part of the Yan family, so they couldn’t agree.
The eight guards all looked at Yin Hui.
Though Yin Hui was still hiding behind Fei Xu, King Yan and the others were sitting atop their horses, so they were close enough to see her blushing face. She resembled a budding flower, with a delicate beauty that couldn’t be mistaken for that of a young man.
King Yan, too old to be easily swayed by beauty, glanced at the disguised beauty before continuing to address the eight guards.
Wei Yang, Wei Yan, and Wei Xuan observed Yin Hui calmly. As for Wei Luo, he never took his eyes off her face.
He had recognized Yin Hui before anyone else. If his father hadn’t intervened, Wei Luo would have found an excuse to turn back and speak to her alone.
Faced with the uncertain gazes, Yin Hui gathered her courage and said to the eight guards, “It’s your blessing that King Yan noticed you, so don’t hesitate to express your gratitude.”
Her voice, sweet and pleasant, matched her beauty perfectly. Wei Yan felt as if his bones were about to melt.
Observing his elder brother’s reaction, Wei Luo pursed his lips and rode forward to block Wei Yan.
Wei Yan stared at his younger brother, wondering why their father didn’t intervene when he was admiring the beauty, but he did. What was the matter with his third brother?
Wei Luo remained as steadfast as a mountain.
Yin Hui’s eight guards knelt down, clasped their fists, and said to King Yan, “We are willing to serve you!”
King Yan nodded, then glanced at Yin Hui once more and said, “I won’t ask for your guards for nothing. Tell me who your father is, and I will reward you generously later.”
In Pingcheng, there were many wealthy households and officials. As long as they had money, it was nothing to keep a few strong guards at home.
Yin Hui hesitated, not wanting to reveal her family’s identity, but she knew she couldn’t hide it. If she remained silent, King Yan would inquire from the guards later, and the truth would come out.
Just as Yin Hui was about to speak, Wei Luo suddenly spoke up on her behalf, “She is the granddaughter of Mr. Yin.”
Wei Yang and Wei Yan exchanged looks, surprised. Wasn’t the Second Lady of the Yin family the one who was almost engaged to the Third Brother?
Upon hearing this, King Yan burst into laughter, looking at the young girl who seemed to want to hide beneath the horse’s belly.
Yin Hui couldn’t comprehend why King Yan was laughing. She had rejected the marriage proposal from King Yan—shouldn’t he be angry?
Blushing slightly, Wei Luo stood amidst his father’s laughter.
After he had laughed enough, King Yan looked at Yin Hui once more.
King Yan wasn’t one to get angry over trivial matters. Besides, Yin Yong had a strong will and prioritized the interests of the Yin family. The fact that Yin Hui dared to reject his son’s marriage proposal in person showed her strong temperament.
King Yan admired people with a strong will, particularly Yin Hui. Although he didn’t want to impose on the Yin family, he found Yin Hui to be quite sensible. She gladly handed over the eight guards to him. It was evident that she knew how to navigate situations and wasn’t simply indulged by Yin Yong.
Earlier, the Third Son had expressed his desire to court Yin Hui slowly, and King Yan had agreed. The Yin family had even donated two million taels of silver, although it was a charitable act and they didn’t expect anything in return. However, King Yan felt a sense of indebtedness towards them. He disliked owing favors to others, and if his son could marry Yin Hui, it would balance out the favor.
