Chapter 443: Chapter 443. Do You Know What He Did?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xiao Zeyu knew Qiu Yongkang too well, so he felt his sister was in danger. He was willing to kill for Xiaoying; it could be seen how deeply infatuated he was with her!
“Alright.”
Su Qing nodded. These few days, Xiaoying had been taking care of Auntie Qiu. She was too kind and had once treated Auntie Qiu as her mother. Su Qing had never interfered with Xiaoying, lest she get sad.
“There is news that you will be willing to hear. The Tartan Kingdom defeated the Kazak Kingdom and captured the Kazak Emperor alive. The Kazak Kingdom no longer exists, and Yeluchun promised that if we need it, he will do his best to help.”
This was something that Xiao Zeyu was excited about. Only when the rear was stable could he focus on overthrowing the Wan Clan’s usurped imperial court?
“It is indeed good news.”
Su Qing nodded. There has been too much good news recently. This Yeluchun was considered a dragon among men and had some ability.
“Sister Su Qing, Sister Su Qing.”
Just as Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu talked, Xiaoying ran into the house anxiously.
Su Qing raised an eyebrow and looked at Xiaoying indifferently. She had already guessed why Xiaoying was in such a hurry.
“Sister Su Qing, Auntie Qiu is dying. Is there any medicine to save her?”
Xiaoying’s face was deathly pale. She had been caring for Auntie Qiu for the past few days without removing her clothes. She watched as Auntie Qiu suffered so much torture that she wished she was dead. The burns were infected and festering. Maggots were crawling in and out of the wounds, emitting an unpleasant smell.
She and Li Shuang’er had already tried their best to care for Auntie Qiu, but they still couldn’t. Today, they saw her breathing slowly, and both of them panicked. Without medicine, Auntie Qiu would die.
“No, I haven’t.”
Su Qing’s reply was icy. She did not stop Xiaoying from taking care of Auntie Qiu, but they could forget about saving her herself.
“Big brother.”
Xiaoying saw that Su Qing was determined not to care, so she looked at her brother, hoping he would send a military doctor to see Aunt Qiu.
“I’ll fetch the military doctor over to take a look.”
Xiao Zeyu looked at Su Qing and said. They had been together for more than ten years. Although Auntie Qiu had done something wrong, he wanted to send her off.

Su Qing did not reply. She turned around and led her troops to search the dry wells in the city. She also ordered people to spread the news that Aunt Qiu was critically ill. If Qiu Yongkang were still in Mo City, he would find a way to see his mother one last time.
Xiao Zeyu rushed to Aunt Li’s house with the military doctor. The Qiu family’s house had been burned beyond recognition. In the middle of winter, no doors or windows existed, and no one could live in it. Aunt Li took Aunt Qiu home to take care of her. She could be considered to be affectionate and loyal.
When Xiao Zeyu arrived, Auntie Qiu had just awakened from her coma. When she saw Xiao Zeyu, she was so excited that she couldn’t speak. Her lips trembled, and tears kept flowing out of her eyes.
“Take a look.”
Xiao Zeyu was not in a good mood when he saw Auntie Qiu like this. He asked the military doctor behind him to go over and take a look. He turned his back to avoid her.
“The wound is already infected.”
The military doctor reported to Xiao Zeyu after the examination. Xiao Zeyu’s Adam’s apple bobbed vigorously. People were afraid of meeting each other. Once they met, they would remember their old feelings. He had not cultivated to the point of having a heart of stone.
He would not let her suffer since there was nothing he could do.
“You can go back first!”
Xiao Zeyu was also knowledgeable in medicine. He knew of a drug that could make someone fall into a deep coma and not feel pain. He decided to give it to Aunt Qiu.
“Shuisheng.”
Auntie Qiu shouted at Xiao Zeyu with all her might, but her voice was like a mosquito’s.
“Auntie Qiu, don’t say anything else.”
Xiao Zeyu knew what she wanted to say to him. But he couldn’t agree. He didn’t give Auntie Qiu a chance to speak and turned to leave the Li family.
“Shuisheng, can you give Qiu Yongkang a way out?”
Li Dazhuang chased after Xiao Zeyu, begging him in a low voice.
“Do you know what he did? He brought the imperial court’s Flying Guillotine to assassinate Su Qing, used a great killing weapon to please the traitor Wan Shengchang, and used all of our lives in exchange for his glory and wealth. If it were you, would you still let him live? Did he think about brotherhood when he did all this? Have you ever thought about the friendship of your fellow countrymen?”
Xiao Zeyu suddenly turned around and looked at Li Dazhuang with a burning gaze. The series of questions made Li Dazhuang step back.
The peaceful life they had now was hard to come by. It could be said that it was all brought to them by Su Qing and Shuisheng. They could eat their fill and have a warm house to live in. If it weren’t for the two of them, the villagers of Peach Blossom Cove would have died on the road to escape.
“… I won’t say anymore.”
Li Dazhuang said dejectedly, looking very depressed.
Xiao Zeyu looked at him deeply and didn’t say anything else. He turned around and left.
It was a peaceful night, but it was so quiet that it made people uneasy.
Su Qing led her men to search through all the dry wells in the city, but they could not find Qiu Yongkang. They only returned to the government office to rest in the early morning.
When she returned to her room, she felt a wave of heat from the door. Someone had lit a stove for her, but Su Qing didn’t overthink it. Thinking that some soldier or servant girl had lit the stove, she took out a lighter and put it to her mouth.
Suddenly, she turned around and struck out at the neck of the person behind her. Her hand was like an eagle’s claw; if she were strangled, it would be fatal.
“Qing’er, it’s me.”
Xiao Zeyu narrowly avoided it and broke out in a cold sweat. Su Qing heard his voice and stopped in time. She asked Xiao Zeyu.
“Why didn’t you light the lamp?”
“1 wanted to give you a surprise.”
Xiao Zeyu blew on the lighter and lit up the oil lamp. The room was instantly filled with warm orange light. He was dressed in light-colored casual clothes, and his handsome face looked like an attractive man who had walked out of a painting under the light.
Su Qing leaned against the door frame with her arms crossed. There was a hint of a smile in her cold eyes, and she was a little arrogant. “You almost died in my hands.”
Xiao Zeyu wasn’t angry, nor did he feel embarrassed. His Qing’er’s martial arts were the best in the world, so he would be decadent if he was afraid of his wife. He said confidently,
“That’s right, Qing’er defeated me.”
“What are you doing here so late?”
Seeing Xiao Zeyu speak so confidently, the smile on Su Qing’s face grew even more expansive. When two people who loved each other were together, they couldn’t help but smile.
“I’m here to give you warmth.”
Xiao Zeyu looked at Su Qing affectionately, his voice seductive.
“Oh?”
Su Qing raised her eyebrows and teased,
“How?”
Looking at Qing’er’s mischievous appearance, the smile in Xiao Zeyu’s eyes grew wider. He slowly walked over to Su Qing and placed one arm on the wall to puli Su Qing into his arms. He lowered his head to look at this female fiend who caused fear in people during the day. His eyes danced with flames as he looked at the delicate little girl in his arms. He slowly lowered his head, and his magnetic voice sounded in Su Qing’s ears.
“Is this okay?”
“I don’t think it’s enough!”
Su Qing looked at the handsome face in front of her. Her eyes were filled with mischief and encouragement. She missed him. Now that they were engaged, there was nothing they couldn’t do. Those customs couldn’t restrain her.
“So that’s it?”
Xiao Zeyu smiled as he kissed the red lips he had longed for. The two of them hugged each other affectionately. The tiredness from many days disappeared in this kiss, and the air was filled with sweetness.
“Young lord, this subordinate has something important to report..”
