Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder's Self-Redemption (2)[MTL]

Chapter 65: A Few Things About the Little Emperor

Qiming put Nalan Xue's ashes in a jar, wrapped them in a bag and carried them on his back before heading back to the city. When he arrived at the city gate, he found a secluded spot and jumped onto the city wall. After a few jumps, he arrived at Liu Sheng's courtyard.

　　Qiming quietly jumped into the yard and looked at the bedroom with a faint yellow light. He walked closer and knocked on the door gently. Almost the next moment, he heard Han Zhan's deep voice, "Who?"

　　Qiming replied softly: "Master, it's me."

　　When Han Zhan heard Qiming's voice, he quickly opened the door. After Qiming came in, he asked in confusion, "Young Master, why are you here so late? Do you have something to tell me?"

　　When Liu Sheng saw Qiming coming in, he quickly walked over to greet him, bowed and said, "Greetings, young master."

　　Qiming waved at him, put the bag on the table, and said calmly, "Mother, I have found it."

　　Han Zhan was excited when he heard this: "Where is the princess? Is she in the secret cell of the palace?"

　　Qiming untied the bundle, revealing the urn inside, and said sadly: "My mother has passed away. Last night, this urn contains her ashes."

　　Liu Sheng and Han Zhan were stunned when they heard this, and it took them a while to react. They said sadly: "How could it be? Young Master, what happened? Why did the princess just..."

　　Thinking of Nalan Xue's miserable condition, Qiming's eyes couldn't help but turn red, tears welled up in his eyes, but he tried to hold them back but they finally fell.

　　"My mother was imprisoned in a water dungeon for more than twenty years and suffered countless tortures. Not only was her appearance destroyed, but her limbs were also crippled! The flesh below the waist was soaked in water for years and was eaten clean by the rats in the water, leaving only white bones! In order to get what he wanted from my mother, the beast Li Hao used drugs to keep my mother alive, leaving her unable to live or die! My mother suffered for twenty years because she was worried about me. When she saw me yesterday, she finally got her wish and followed my father." Qiming closed his eyes, tears streaming down his cheeks.

　　Han Zhan was furious when he heard this. Without saying a word, he turned and walked out the door.

　　"Master, do you know that you will surely die if you go there?" Qiming spoke to stop the furious Han Zhan.

　　Han Zhan clenched the long sword at his waist, and said with bloodshot eyes: "Young Master, the princess is the most noble and proud woman in my Nalan country. How could she have suffered such humiliation! I know that this trip is dangerous, but for the dignity of Her Royal Highness, I will not refuse even if I die!"

　　"Stupid! Knowing you will die, you still fly into the fire like a moth. This is the act of a reckless man. How can such a stupid person be worthy of following his mother? If you keep rushing around like this, you won't even be able to see Li Hao and will be hacked to death by the secret guards of the palace!" Qiming said sternly.

　　Han Zhan said angrily, "Young Master, the princess has suffered such a great humiliation. As a subordinate, how can I not avenge my master?"

　　Liu Sheng grabbed Han Zhan's arm and said angrily: "Han Zhan, the one who is most sad and angry about the princess's affairs is not you and me, but the young master! Not only did you fail to comfort the young master, but you also made him worried. Can you live up to the princess's instructions?"

　　Han Zhan was startled when he heard this, and subconsciously looked at Qiming. When he saw Qiming's pale face and the tears on his face, he lowered his head in shame and said in a muffled voice: "Master, I'm sorry, I was blinded by anger. Please accept my condolences for the princess's matter."
