Shocking! The killer traveled through time and space and became a female Shura, killing like crazy

Chapter 233: Unbearable Bitterness

Shen Xue took care of the affairs in the capital and was having dinner with Shangguan Rui and Doctor Ye. "Master, Brother Rui, I will be returning to Yunzhou tomorrow."

"Xiaoxue, even if you go back, you must go to Tongjitang Pharmacy to see patients. Otherwise, I'm worried that your hands will become rusty if you don't use surgery for a long time."

"Master, I will. Concubine Hui is due to give birth in the first month of the year, and I will return early to accompany her in giving birth to the prince."

"Good boy, thank you for your hard work in the future."

Shen Xue fought back tears. "My eldest sister used to protect me from the wind and rain and pave the way for my future. Now that she's gone, it's my turn to support the family. Otherwise, grandma and my brother will be terrified."

"Good boy, Master is relieved that you think of me this way."

"Xiaoxue, Master will not accompany you back this time. Li'er is pregnant. As your second uncle, I haven't helped her in any way before. Now that she's pregnant, there are so many people in the harem who don't want her to give birth. I can't leave the capital when she needs me the most."

"Master, I understand that Concubine Hui's pregnancy is a big deal. She can rest assured while you're in the capital. I'll go back to spend time with my family and I'll rush over before Concubine Hui gives birth."

"If you have anything to say, have someone pass it on."

"Thank you, Master."

Shangguan Rui looked at her, his eyes full of worry and heartache, but he also had a path to take, and he also had the military book given to him by the princess, which he studied every day.

The princess proposed to her father to train a group of naval forces. Her father has ordered the selection of suitable candidates, but has not yet decided who to entrust this important task to. She must get the control power. Only when she has real power can she protect the people she wants to protect.

His father put the matter on hold because of Uncle Nine's death, which gave him time to fight for it.

"Xiaoxue, as soon as you return to Yunzhou, send someone to tell me that you have arrived home safely."

Shen Xue nodded slightly, "Brother Rui, I understand."

The next morning, Shen Xue set out on the road back to Yunzhou. Although Han Lin and the others were injured, they followed her back without hesitation.

They blamed themselves for not protecting their master and princess. The emperor ordered them to protect the Princess of Ya'an and to keep her safe even if it meant risking all their strength.

The carriage swayed forward, and Shen Xue lifted the curtain to look out at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery. Thinking of her elder sister's voice, appearance, and smile, her eyes could not help but tear up.

Qiuyu and Dongyue sat in the carriage, watching her cry. They felt sad too, and whispered to comfort her, "County Lady, I know the princess's passing is a huge blow to you, but we must all look forward. If you can't get over this grief, the old lady and the young master still need you to lead them out of this shadow."

Shen Xue gently wiped the tears from her cheeks, "I know, it's just that seeing the scenery along the way can't help but bring back memories."

Yunzhou

Ye Qing received the news from Han Lin and the others and was stunned when he saw the content. "Xu Yang, the master and the princess were buried in the sea."

Several guards were stunned, their faces instantly turning sad. "Now that the master and princess are gone, where should we go?"

"The Emperor has already given Han Lin and all the guards to the Princess of Ya'an. From now on, we must do our utmost to protect the Shen family."

"Don't tell grandma and Xiaonan for now. Wait until Ya'an County Master comes back and tell grandma and the others yourself."

"That's all there is to it. It's a shame the Master and the Princess passed away at such a young age."

They knelt down and kowtowed towards the capital, saying solemnly and firmly: "Master, Princess, rest assured that we will protect the Shen family even at the risk of our lives."

The next day, seeing Ye Qing and the others looking unwell, Grandma quickly said with concern, "Ye Qing, I noticed that you guards all looked unwell today. Did you not get enough sleep? Don't take turns keeping watch with Gao Feng and Zhou Yan anymore. We are safe now and don't need to keep watch every day."

"Grandma, don't worry, the eleven of us will make arrangements."

"Have you received any letters from Xiaorou and Xiaoxue recently? Xiaonan keeps complaining about how his eldest and second sisters haven't come back in a while. Is it because Xiaorou is too busy with business and marriage to write letters?"

Ye Qing and the others suppressed their inner sorrow and said, "Grandma, the Princess of Ya'an is on her way back. She will be home in two or three days."

Grandma immediately smiled and said lovingly, "This girl even came back specially to pick us up to go to the capital to attend Xiaorou's wedding. She could have just written a letter and asked you to take us there. It would have been so tiring running back and forth!"

"Grandma, the Princess of Ya'an is filial to you."

Grandma laughed so hard that her face was wrinkled, which made them feel even more uncomfortable. She would be so sad when she knew what happened to her master and the princess.

When the carriage returned to Yunzhou, Shen Xue saw the familiar street scenes, which made her even more emotional and tears welled up in her eyes.

Returning to the door of the breakfast shop, she quickly wiped the tears from her cheeks.

When grandma saw Han Lin and his group approaching slowly, she hurried forward and asked excitedly, "Han Lin, why are you here? Isn't Yun Ting busy at this time?"

Han Lin hesitated to speak, "Grandma, the master..."

Shen Xue and two servants got out of the carriage, "Grandma..."

When grandma saw Shen Xue, she quickly shook her hand and said happily, "My Xiaoxue is becoming more and more like a lady from a noble family."

Shen Xue hugged her grandma tightly, tears welling in her eyes, "Grandma, I miss you."

"Grandma misses you two sisters too. Your eldest sister must be very busy right now!"

"Sister, she..."

At this time, Xiaonan came running over and said, "Second sister, Xiaonan misses you and eldest sister so much. When are we going to Beijing to attend the wedding of eldest sister and brother-in-law? Their wedding must be lively and exciting. Just thinking about it makes me excited."

Shen Xue listened to her brother's words, tears like pearls, instantly sliding down her cheeks, choking and saying: "Grandma, let's go home first."

"Why is the child crying?"

Shen Xue helped her grandma walk back.

Han Lin and the guards stood there looking at the backs of the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren sadly. They looked lonely and fragile, which made them feel mixed emotions.

Ye Qing said calmly: "Boss, take everyone back to the house first."

Han Lin nodded softly.

They all walked towards Master Yang's yard.
