Chapter 108 Lei Tianyan Left (Part Two)

Yun Qi winked at Yun Qin. They were both happy that she was worried about Mister Tianyan. Yun Qin continued, "I examined his wounds. They are not serious, mostly trauma to the skin, but …"

"But what?" Canglan looked grim as she looked at the twins.

"But Mister Tianyan didn't rest during the night, so he was weak. Now today he has rushed off on his journey to the Si Kingdom. The fatigue will do him in. Moreover, his wound wasn't treated and may become infected, and it will probably leave a scar.

Canglan turned away making it difficult to judge her thoughts. She didn't speak. The yard held a deafening silence.

For a few days, the General's House was quiet and peaceful. The Zhenguo General, Yun Yajun was gravely ill, and many guests called on him, whether they were sincere or not. But Canglan turned the visitors away, and so no one saw the dying Zhenguo General.

Canglan was quiet, and the happy chatter that was once heard in her yard was gone now that Mister Tianyan had left. Yun Qin and Yun Qi no longer laughed or quarreled, they trudged through their day performing their roles responsibly. Canglan sat in the yard watching the pear tree, lost in thought, day after da

ilently bragging because he got a reaction from the Mistress.

Yun Qin and Yun Qi were aware of the Mistress's unhappiness since Mister Tianyan left. Tomorrow great changes would take place, and their Mistress was still in low spirits. If she didn't rouse herself, the Can Kingdom would be occupied by another. Solid plans needed excellent commanders.

"Did they say anything?" Canglan squinted at Yun Xiang as she asked.

Yun Xiang was no longer upset or pitiable; instead he was smiling when he informed her, "They said 'I will smash your store.' They did too and also yelled 'I'll kill you'. Then they hunted me.'"

Canglan slammed her fist onto the stone table yelling, "Let's go Yun Xiang."

Yun Xiang blinked in surprise, "Mistress, where are we going?"

"To seek revenge for you."
