The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1257 - 1337: Stewed, Stewed, Stewed

"The Yuwen family has significant influence in Dajin. Thirty years ago, the Yuwen family faced severe suppression from the Dajin royal family, leaving them shattered and devastated. Your husbands are likely descendants left by Yuwen family’s second aunt in Dayuan. Although the royal family seems to hold power in Dajin officially, the real control lies secretly in the hands of the Yuwen family."

"Yuwen?"

Dong Huiying was bewildered again. Wasn’t... wasn’t the surname supposed to be Liang?

She instinctively glanced at Zhi Chen, whose face was twitching slightly, probably due to recalling some unpleasant memories. He clenched his hands into fists, desperately enduring and suppressing the overwhelming memories.

Miao Qing nodded, "Indeed, the Yuwen family. Currently, they are the true masters of Dajin. That second aunt of the Yuwen family did something that shocked Dajin. Years ago, she suddenly returned to the Yuwen family, and her first command was to execute all mixed-blood descendants from Dayuan or Jin Yuan. Her hatred for Dayuan people was widely known, and her presence brought ominous warnings wherever she went."

"It’s unknown what she encountered in Dayuan, but after she returned to Dajin, her methods were so cruel... Haha, I’ve gotten excessively obsessed with Gu Refinement, doing things intolerable to the world. At most, I used living people to test the Gu, maybe they died horribly, but I was just experimenting with the toxicity characteristics of new Gu, unlike her. The things she’s done... Even I... Oh, seems like I’m getting off topic."

Miao Qing returned to the topic: "In any case, this is my advice. Dayuan is still relatively peaceful, but the royal eighth princess, though ambitious, lacks great strategic skills. If she continues to hold power, the apparent ’peace’ will soon be broken. Before long, Dajin will wholly invade Dayuan, and you, as people of a fallen country... the result won’t be pleasant. If you wish to survive, it’s best to take your men out to sea before falling into the hands of that ruthless second aunt."

Dong Huiying contemplated for a moment before calling Xiao Hua. Xiao Hua immediately flew back to her side.

"Thank you for informing me of these matters; in return, I will no longer pursue previous issues. Miss Miao, please leave?"

Miao Qing paused, "But the butterfly..."

"Greed can never be satisfied, Miss Miao. Life is fragile and should be cherished."

Miao Qing felt a bit dispirited, "I really love that butterfly..."

"But it is mine!"

"But I like it?"

"You... Are you going or not? If you keep nagging, don’t blame me for turning hostile?"

"I..."

Miao Qing sniffed and blinked hard, as if she were being mistreated by Dong Huiying. "You’re unreasonable!"

"Am I unreasonable?" She rolled her eyes, "Come on, if I were truly unreasonable, would you still be alive right now?"

"But, back then your people cooked my chicken! Da Hua is Er Hua’s mother, left to me by my father. My father passed away long ago, it was my only memento, but it was cooked by your people! Cooked! Cooked!! Can you imagine how heartbroken I was?"

"Uh... cooked?" Dong Huiying’s face showed sheer confusion.

Yun Ge also looked utterly baffled, realizing Miao Qing’s furious arrival was over a chicken?
