Chapter 239: Other Countries
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Of course, Uncle Yu didn’t know what mistake Qiao Yanqi had made. He only thought that since she made the general so angry, she should just be kicked out of the Qiao family’s home! Why kill her?
Uncle Yu thought that perhaps it was because he was old that he had become too soft-hearted. As the Qiao family’s old butler, he used to have some tricks up his sleeve.
When Qiao Yanhui heard this, he only looked at Uncle Yu indifferently and didn’t say anything. If Uncle Yu knew that Qiao Yanqi was sent by Ao Heng, he probably wouldn’t have any mercy for Qiao Yanqi, let alone be so soft-hearted. After all, Uncle Yu treated his mother like his daughter and had always respected and protected her. He was also entrusted by the Qiao family’s old master to take good care of her. In the end, she was killed by Ao Heng. How could Uncle Yu tolerate anyone related to Ao Heng?!
However, Uncle Yu was old after all, so Qiao Yanhui didn’t tell Uncle Yu that much, since he was afraid that Uncle Yu wouldn’t be able to take it. After all, that was the child he had raised!
As Uncle Yu watched Qiao Yanhui leave, he sighed deeply. He didn’t dissuade him anymore. He only hoped that Xu Qing would be able to protect her children!
On the other side, the Qiao family’s incident wasn’t hidden at all. After all, one of the birthday boys had almost been kidnapped.
When the Mu family found out that this matter was actually done by Mu Weiqing, they were on tenterhooks for a few days in a row. They were afraid that Qiao Yanhui would blame them.
However, even so, the Mu family got implicated by Mu Weiqing. The family became homeless again, and the old residence was burned. Every one of them was beaten up and became bedridden for the rest of their lives!
In a few days, it would be Ao Heng’s birthday. The envoys of the various countries had already arrived in the country one after another.
There were a total of five large countries in the Divine Continent, excluding the other small border countries and the countries in the outer seas. Among them, the New Heavenly Kingdom was the most powerful country, and the reason was the Regent, Yi Chulin. Yi Chulin had annexed many small countries over the years and raised New Heavenly Kingdom’s ranking to the number one country.
As for the second place, it was Dali Kingdom. It had a long history and had outstanding talents. It had mild weather all year round, so its economy developed rapidly. It was the place with the richest culture and the most developed economy among the five countries.
The third place was the Ancient Kingdom, which became powerful entirely thanks to Qiao Yanhui alone. Of course, if the emperor of the Ancient Kingdom wasn’t the current one, the Ancient Kingdom might be the strongest. The Ancient Kingdom was the country with the most diverse territory and the largest land area.
The fourth place was the Green Mountain Nation. Because it was located in the north, the weather there was relatively cold and crops were difficult to plant, so there was a lack of food. However, it was also because of this that the people of the Green Mountain Nation were relatively tough. The reason such a place was able to become so developed was that the Green Mountain Nation traded with overseas nations to protect its economy.
As for the last place, it was the Nujiang Kingdom. In fact, the Nujiang Kingdom’s geographic area was very good and was a neighbor of Nujiang Kingdom. However, it was controlled by a scheming woman, so it was in chaos. It wasn’t that no one had thought of changing powers, but the woman’s subordinates were too powerful and the country’s situation was complicated!
Over the past few days, Qiao Yanhui had been helping Ao Jie entertain the envoys, so Xu Qing didn’t see him that often. This made Xu Qing feel bored. She also wanted to see the cultural customs of the other countries in this parallel world!
The more she thought about it, the more curious she became. A sly look appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. After a while, she disguised herself as an inconspicuous village girl. As long as she didn’t say anything, no one would recognize her.
Xu Qing looked at the three babies outside the courtyard. Then, she chuckled and prepared to sneak out. In the end, just as she climbed out of the window, the three babies appeared in front of Xu Qing.
“Mom, where are you going?” Xue’er narrowed her eyes and looked at her aggrievedly for not bringing them out to play.
“Dad said that you can’t go out.” Yuan’er crossed his arms with a serious expression.
“Mom, you look so ugly.” Ting’er looked disdainful.
Xu Qing was shocked as she looked at the three children staring at her and chuckled awkwardly. “I was bored in the house and came out to take a breather. Continue playing.” With that, Xu Qing closed the window. With the children watching, she definitely couldn’t leave. However, weren’t the children playing just now? Why were they in front of her in the blink of an eye?
