Chapter 104 He is not only your enemy but also mine

It is true that he was picked up by his adoptive father, but there is no way he could be Princess Chaoyang's child.

After all, in order to seek revenge, he had inquired about the princess's mansion from many sources, and had never heard of any child being lost from the mansion.

Seeing that Feng Jinmu didn't believe it at all, Princess Chaoyang quickly said, "You were exchanged from the Princess's Mansion by Xu Jinhuai and his concubine."

"When they threw you away, you were wrapped in a gray swaddling cloth with a peach blossom embroidered on it."

Although I don’t know whether the information in this swaddling cloth is useful, I can only give it a try now.

Hearing this, Feng Jinmu's expression changed instantly.

When his adoptive father picked him up, he was indeed wrapped in a gray swaddling cloth embroidered with peach blossoms.

His adoptive father was worried that his parents would look for him, so he kept the swaddling clothes for him so that his biological parents could reunite with him in the future.

No one else knew about this except the adoptive father and the second in command.

Could he really be Princess Chaoyang’s child?
Could it be that he could hear the baby's inner voice because they were siblings?

"What is going on?" he asked Princess Chaoyang in disbelief.

When Princess Chaoyang saw that Feng Jinmu began to believe her, she guessed that it was the information in the swaddling clothes that worked.

A wry smile crossed her lips, and she told the whole story with tears in her eyes.

"So, Xu Jinhuai is not only the enemy of your village, but also the enemy of our entire family!"

Feng Jinmu never thought that his life experience would be like this, and he was unable to react for a long time.

The bandits in the house were also shocked.

"There is such a wicked person as Xu Jinhuai in this world. I really want to kill him a hundred times!" The scarred man was the first to speak.

"Yes, he even plotted against his own wife and harmed his own children. He is simply not worthy of being a human being." Another bandit said angrily.

"Young Master, just say the word and the brothers will follow you down the mountain and chop Xu Jinhuai into pieces and feed him to the dogs!"

"Yes, young master, as long as you say the word, the brothers will accompany you even to death."

"Young Master, just give the order!"

Princess Chaoyang looked at the indignant bandits in the house and said quickly, "Absolutely not."

"Why not? That evil man treated you and your child like this, do you still regard him as your husband?" asked the scarred man angrily.

Princess Chaoyang shook her head. "Of course not. I wish I could tear him into pieces."

"However, if we rush down the mountain rashly like this, we might be caught by the soldiers guarding the city before we even enter it."

"Even if we are lucky enough to enter the city and kill Xu Jinhuai, what will we do? Will we become fugitives from now on, facing the pursuit of the government at any time?"

Having said that, she looked at Feng Jinmu again, her child who had been lost and found again.

"Jinmu is still so young and should have a bright future. How could he ruin his life just to kill Xu Jinhuai?"

She didn't want Feng Jinmu to take any risk, not even the slightest bit.

Princess Chaoyang clutched the handkerchief tightly and continued, "Xu Jinhuai must be killed!"

"But before that, we still need to find an opportunity, collect evidence, expose his evil deeds to the world, and then cut him into pieces openly!"

"This is the only way to relieve the hatred in my heart!"

Hearing this, everyone hesitated.

Naturally, they are not afraid of death, nor are they afraid of being charged with murder.

But Jinmu grew up in their eyes.

In the past, they thought Jinmu was just like them, a person with a miserable life, so they could advance and retreat together in everything.

Now they know that Jinmu is actually the biological son of the princess of the current dynasty and a royal relative. How can they still drag Jinmu to accompany them to die?
Princess Chaoyang is right, Jinmu should indeed have a better future.

Feng Jinmu was also a little hesitant.

So many people have died in the village, and he really doesn't want to see more brothers die.

If we could kill Xu Jinhuai without bloodshed and take revenge, that would be the best.

Princess Chaoyang saw that Feng Jinmu was moved, and hurriedly said, "Jinmu, come back with me." "I'm really afraid of losing you again."

Princess Chaoyang's eyes were already red and tears were falling like rain.

Feng Jinmu's brows furrowed even deeper.

Although he also wanted to reunite with Princess Chaoyang and her family, he could not abandon his brothers.

If my adoptive father hadn't picked me up, I would have been eaten by wolves.

These brothers are not only benefactors to him, but also relatives.

He carried Xu Yaoyao to Princess Chaoyang and handed her to her.

"You go."

"As for me, I will not go back with you. In my eyes, Qingfeng Village is my home, the place that saved me and raised me."

Princess Chaoyang quickly shook her head.

How could she let her son, whom she had found with great difficulty, continue to be a bandit?

If the imperial court wants to suppress bandits one day, wouldn’t his son be in danger?

Thinking of this, Princess Chaoyang was terrified.

"Jinmu, are you blaming mother? Is that why you don't want to go back with mother?"

"It's my mother who is sorry for you. It's my mother who failed to protect you. You have every right to blame me."

"But Jinmu, mother is really worried about leaving you in the mountains."

When the bandits in the house saw that Princess Chaoyang and Feng Jinmu had something to say, they tactfully left the house.

Feng Jinmu felt very uncomfortable when he saw Princess Chaoyang’s face full of self-blame.

After all, this is his biological mother whom he has fantasized about countless times.

She is the person he wants to embrace when he is sick or injured.

"I, I don't blame you. After all, what happened was not what you wanted. I just..."

[Third brother just can't bear to leave his brothers in Qingfeng Village. ]

[Mother, why don't you find a way to settle the brothers in Qingfeng Village? ]

[This way, Brother San will have nothing to worry about. ]

[In fact, Third Brother doesn’t want to be a bandit either.]

【His dream since childhood was to become a general who defends his country. 】

[But unfortunately, he grew up in a den of thieves and didn't even have the qualifications to join the army, so how could he have the chance to become a general? ]

【So, the third brother kept this dream in his heart. 】

[If Third Brother can go back with Mother, Mother will definitely find a way to help Third Brother realize his wish.]

[So, Third Brother, just come with us. ]

If Xu Yaoyao hadn’t chatted with Xiao Gua last night, she wouldn’t have known the secret in Feng Jinmu’s heart.

Feng Jinmu: Great General? Does he really have a chance?
Princess Chaoyang: I see.

She wiped her tears with a handkerchief, looked at Feng Jinmu and said, "Are you worried about the brothers in the village?"

"Ke Jinmu, have you ever thought that as long as Qingfeng Village exists, the people on the mountain will face more danger."

"After all, Qingfeng Village is a den of bandits. If the imperial court finds out, they will definitely send people to suppress the bandits."

Hearing Princess Chaoyang's words, Feng Jinmu's expression became very solemn.

He remembered that Xu Yaoyao had predicted that he and his brothers in the village would die in the imperial court's encirclement and suppression and at the hands of Xu Linyue in the future.

No, he must not let this happen.

Princess Chaoyang saw this and continued, "As long as everyone is willing, mother can help the brothers in the village find another way out so that everyone can live a normal life like ordinary people."
