C9

"Father, mother, your son is back. Guess!" Lu Que ran into the living room happily and found five people standing around him, looking at something on the sand table that he used to practice his calligraphy on. Seeing him run in, five pairs of eyes landed on him, causing his heart to tremble. Only his father, Lu Chun, had a complicated look in his eyes. When he saw the stone slab in his father's hand, a trace of uneasiness flashed across his eyes.

"Greetings, Father, Mother, Uncle Mu, Aunt Su, Aunt Gu." Lu Que quickly concealed the emotions in his heart and greeted the five people in the room.

"You little monkey, every time you sneak out, aren't you afraid of worrying your mother?" However, she grabbed onto Lu Que's right hand and checked his pulse, afraid that something was wrong with his body.

"Ji-er, come back a little later. I'm going to light a cigarette and summon you back." Lu Chun put the stone board to the side and said.

"Aunt Su, I'm fine." Lu Que naturally knew what his father was going to say next. He hurriedly said, "Father, mother, guess who I met when I went out this time?"

As soon as he said that, he turned to the side and let Yu Tian Xiang, who was standing by the door, out.

Without waiting for the others to speak, Yu Tian Xiang gave Lu Chun and Yu Chu Qing a junior salute, "Niece Tian Xiang greets Aunt and Aunt." He then turned to the three of them and said, "Greetings, three sirs."

He looked at the girl in front of him who called herself Princess Tian Xiang with a moved expression. She was dressed in a outfit that only existed in his memories, the sword on her waist that was made according to the style of a general of the Feng Xiang Army. With a glance, he could tell that she had the aura of a noble of the imperial family, as well as her face that was sixty to seventy percent similar to the Grand Princess' Yu Chuqing's.

Yu Chuqing and her husband, Lu Chun, looked at each other. Although they had already guessed the truth last night, seeing their grown up niece suddenly appear in front of them made them unable to hide the excitement in their hearts. He quickly went forward and helped Yu Tian Xiang up. After sizing her up, he said, "It's indeed the Heaven's Incense. It's indeed the Heaven's Incense." How is your royal father? How is the Queen Mother? Is the Bureau smooth? How did you get here? Are you hurt? "

"Mother, you asked so many questions all at once. How do you want Sister Tian Xiang to answer them? It's better if you sit down and talk."

"Right, right, right. Come." After saying that, Yu Chu Qing held Yu Tian Xiang's hand and walked to the side.

After half an hour, Yu Tian Xiang recounted the events that happened in the past few years, how she came here, and how she was rescued by Lu Que. These are not the words used here, as the previous instrument has already written.)

However, after Yu Tian Xiang finished her sentence, the room fell into a strange silence. Everyone lowered their heads and started to ponder.

Lu Chun took the moth jade pendant that Yu Tian Xiang had placed on the table and fiddled with it for a while. Then, he said, "Que'er's analysis is not bad, but there's something wrong with his analysis."

"Please enlighten me, Father." Lu Que knew that his father was much more knowledgeable than him, so he must have noticed something he missed out on.

"Look at the patterns on the jade pendant carefully." Lu Chun turned the jade in his hand over and faced the crowd. He knew that his son was intelligent and could learn very quickly, but he had never experienced many things and could not avoid omitting some of the details. During his ten years in the Northern Frontier, he had practically known every tribe in the prairie like the back of his hand.

"Husband, are you talking about the patterns on the moth?" Yu Chu Qing also looked at it carefully, her expression was a little moved.

Seeing that other than his wife, the others were still confused, so Lu Chun said, "The Moth Jade Pendant is indeed the symbol of a warrior of the Crimson Dis. This lack of knowledge is not wrong, but there is still a difference." As he spoke, he pointed at the patterns on the moth's wings and body, which looked like they were drawn by ghosts. Only Captains Chidi and above are qualified to wear moth-shaped jade pendants, but Captain Chieftain Peiyu, only moth shaped, does not have any patterns; Captain Peiyu, the body of the moth will have a mark; the tribe leader Peiyu, will have the tribe's totem engraved on it, and on this piece of jade, these seemingly disorderly lines are the unique characters of the Great Wasteland Temple. In the legends of the Great Prairie, these words were left behind by the God of Heaven, so this jade pendant should be from the King Chidi clan. "

"Uncle, you're saying that this piece of jade came from the King's Court?" Yu Tian Xiang was a little surprised. Could it be that the hidden culprit behind this was the descendant of the Lei Meng royal family? However, with such painstaking planning and meticulous planning, why didn't he just kill himself?

"It might not be due to the King's Court on the Prairie, where the royal family of the prairie has changed, and it is much more cruel and bloody than what we have done. Perhaps it is from the King's Court, or perhaps it is just a disciple of the royal family who was exiled," Lu Chun casually said. As for whether or not the jade pendant actually came from the Crimson Dis Royal Court, to the whole thing, it was not important at all. He agreed with his son Lu Que's analysis. These Scarlet Dies were merely chess pieces that had been used by others.

"Sister Chuqing, Brother Lu Chun, this whole thing seems to be exactly the same as what happened to us all those years ago." Su Leyan also thought of the crux of the problem and looked at the two people in the main seat.

"That's right. This entire matter is exactly the same as what we had back then. Just what sort of intentions does the person behind this have?" Gu Jianyun also said.

"Big Brother Lu, to be able to control so many Scarlet Dis despite being separated by twelve years, it seems that this person's identity in the prairie isn't simple." Mu Zhi said in a serious tone.

"But exactly who is the person behind this?" Yu Chuqing thought for a moment, then looked at her husband, Lu Chun, and said, "Husband, if the masterminds were to target us, although we were trapped here for 12 years, we are still alive. On the contrary, those people all died in the mountains of no return. It's the same for Tian Xiang today, although the three guards around us were all dead and injured, Tian Xiang is still unharmed. The Scarlet Dans who ambushed Tian Xiang probably all went to meet their god now. "

"This is something that your husband has been confused about for so many years."

"Could it be someone from the sea of sand?" Mu Zhi said.

"Big Brother Mu, the thirty-six nations of Sha Hai are weak. Although they have this motive, they don't have it." Su Le Yi shook his head.

"Yes, I ignored it." Mu Zhi patted his head and stopped talking. As the saying went, there was an expert in the arts that allowed him to study the wooden arts organs. He was naturally proficient in this. However, it was somewhat difficult for him to think about such complex issues.

"Uncle, Aunt, Milords, what happened back then? royal father has been investigating this matter for the past twelve years, but other than the three corpses with the marquis' marquis' seal on them that were found in the mountain region, there are no other clues. " That incident that year had troubled Dazhi for a full 12 years. She was extremely anxious to know what had happened that year.

Just as Yu Tian Xiang's voice faded, the five other people in the room, other than Lu Que, seemed to have recalled something bad. All of them lowered their heads and remained silent. The atmosphere in the room seemed to have become more tense.

After a moment of silence, Lu Chun opened his mouth and said, "Your Highness."

"Uncle, you can just call me Tian Xiang, or else if mother finds out, I'll definitely punish my niece." Yu Tian Xiang didn't dare to allow this Marquis Wu Ping to call her 'princess'. Not only were his achievements from all those years ago, but he was also her mother's elder brother, her aunt's husband. According to the imperial court's rules, since the imperial family was the first to call him uncle, it was not wrong to call him uncle. Other than his Imperial Father, Queen Mother, and a few of his uncles, Marquis Wu Ping was definitely the person closest to him in terms of blood ties.

"Well, then. This humble subject shall overstep himself. " Lu Chun cupped his hands and began to talk about what happened twelve years ago.

Thirteen years ago, the Sky Fire Legion had suffered a great loss in the northern border war and was sent back to the capital by Yu Yuan to recuperate. Because Da Gan had just annihilated the Qingyang Empire that had dominated the plains for over a hundred years, the surrounding countries were all shocked. They all sent their subjects to the imperial court, afraid that they would become his next target.

Lu Chun had stayed in the capital for nearly a year, but one day, an old man suddenly came to Marquis Wu Ping's mansion. Lu Chun had stayed in the capital for nearly a year, when suddenly, an old man came to Marquis Wu Ping's mansion.

It had to be known that although Yushan County's Lu family was not some famous family, they had already passed down over a dozen generations in Yushan County. Back then, when Blue River froze in winter, the Azure Goat Empire took advantage of the sudden invasion of Yushan County to rob and kill. The Lu Family's ancestors were burned into a pile of rubble by the Azure Goat Man, while the clan members lucky enough to survive scattered in all directions.

When the old man found out that the Azure Goat Empire had been destroyed and that the Lu Family had been exterminated, he was unexpectedly a nephew who had been separated for many years and thought that he had passed away. The old man couldn't help but sigh at his ancestor's intelligence, and that was why he came to find his nephew and ask him to rebuild the ancestral shrine.

Lu Chun would naturally not disagree with this kind of arrangement. Originally, Lu Chun had planned to wait until the Skyfire Army finished reorganizing and assembling its forces before he would take care of this matter. Now that this uncle came to invite him, he naturally had to make the schedule ahead of time. Otherwise, if some censor found out and took part in this book, all good things would turn into bad things.

Thus, Lu Chun wrote a letter and handed the matter of training the Skyfire Army to Vice Marshal Wei Jiu. He brought his wife and children and six hundred soldiers to Yushan's old home. Because he had to rebuild the ancestral hall, Lu Chun had invited Mu Zhi, who came from a family of wood arts agencies, Shi Kuan, who came from a master craftsman's clan, Feng Li and the rest from the Hundred Smelting Clan to accompany him.

The day before they set off, because the war had ended, the bored Vice-Commander-in-Chief Gu Jianyun and the Military Advisor Su Loyi heard of this news and decided to go with them. They also went to visit the sisters who had married into Mirror Lake County. At the beginning, everything went smoothly. With the financial resources of Hou Mansion and three skilled craftsmen, the project was completed very quickly.

However, on the way back, he encountered a problem. One evening when they were camping, Lu Chun found out that he had gone to the river to fetch water. In the evening, he was ambushed by an unknown person. Fortunately, Lu Chun had already been prepared, so he was able to bring everyone and retreat safely.

The north side of the road was blocked, so they could only head south. Fortunately, everyone here was an Iron General who had fought on the battlefield. The personal guards of the Marquis of Martialism and the Grand Princess's Mansion were elites who had experienced the blood and fire of the battlefield. Their marching speed was extremely fast. After walking for a few days, nothing happened. But the strange thing was, the messenger pigeons that had been sent to the Shadow Mountain Troops and the Western Capital Cloud City for help had never returned. Helpless, they could only continue to head south. They wanted to cross the Azure River and take the water route to the Danxia County. It had to be known that there was a difference between the vast lands of the Danxia County and the Danxia County. Because of the existence of the Western Capital City, the Danxun County was one of the most prosperous places.

However, just as they were about to leave the County of Gloomy Mountain and get within five kilometers of the mountain, they were ambushed once again. Only now did Lu Chun and the rest realize that the ones chasing after them were the survivors of the Great Desolate Temple.

At the highest level of the Great Desolate Temple, there was a 12 Envoys. When the Great Desolate Temple was destroyed, there were 4 Golden Wolf Envoys who escaped death because they weren't in the temple. One had to know that the Twelve Golden Wolf Envoys were all experts at the Divine Soul Realm.

With powerful enemies ahead and pursuers behind them, Lu Chun and Yu Chu Qing could only helplessly retreat towards the Formless Mountain with their men. Originally, they had planned to shoot from the outer edge of the mountain of no return before making a move. However, it was a pity that the enemy was strong while I was weak. In this kind of encounter, no one had a good chance of winning, and seeing that their subordinates had suffered heavy losses, Lu Chun and Yu Chu Qing could only use Lu Que, who was not even two years old, as bait, to lure the four strongest Gold Wolf Emissaries away and enter the depths of the mountain. In the end, they killed the four of them with the help of a purple-white fox beast.

After getting rid of the White Fox, the couple met Su Loyi and the others who were hiding in the depths of the mountain of no return. Just like Yu Tian Xiang, when they climbed over a mountain, they somehow entered the ten valleys of the eight peaks and were trapped until now.

"There's one more thing that Darling, you didn't mention." When Lu Chun roughly finished talking about what happened 12 years ago, Yu Chu Qing said.

She stood up and took out two arrows from the inner room. "Same as you, Tian Xiang. Your uncle and I were saved by the arrows back then." After that purple-eyed white fox killed the four Golden Wolf Emissaries, it continued to chase after us and was unable to break away from us for a few days and nights. However, at the most critical moment, it was scared away by an arrow. " After saying that, Yu Chu Qing placed an arrow in front of everyone.

"This one, let me say it." Gu Jianyun stood up and took another arrow from Yu Chu Qing's hand. Back then, after Grand Princess and Marquis Lu lured away the four Golden Wolf Envoys, although we had killed the remaining survivors of the Great Desolate Temple one by one, we had also retreated into the mountain of no return. After some discussion, we decided to first find big sister Chu Qing and Big Brother Lu, and at that time, a three meter tall Golden Eyed White Ape appeared.

"This is?" Yu Tian Xiang picked up the arrow and looked left and right, only to discover that it was exactly the same as the one she had lost. There were silver phoenix carvings on both the arrow and the arrow. "Aunt, is this your arrow?"

"It should have been lost in my quiver." Yu Yuqing also had a wry smile on her face.

"No wonder." Only then did Yu Tian Xiang understand why they were so shocked by her story. Back then, she and her aunt had been so similar in both process and result. It was not hard to tell that the same person stood behind both of these two events.

"Alright, I still have some things to say to Qu Er and I. You two continue to chat." Lu Chun saw that he was done talking, he stood up and waved to Lu Que, then walked over to Lu Que's room.

"Yue Yi, quickly give Tian Xiang a pulse check to see if there are any injuries." Of course, Yu Chu Qing knew what her husband Lu Chun wanted to say to her son, and smiled knowingly. He turned around and said to Su Le Yi.

Once they entered the room and sat down, the father and son duo didn't speak for a quarter of an hour. They were both thinking about something.

"Father, you're taking it without telling me. You're not acting like an honest gentleman, are you?" Seeing his father's conflicted expression, Lu Que was the first to speak.

"How preposterous." Lu Chun blushed at his son's words and pretended to be angry, "As a human son, since you know your parents' request and you don't take out the stone tablet, you should be unfilial and hide it in your room."

"Well, Father, what are you going to say?" Lu Que knew that his father wasn't angry. He was just trying to cover it up.

"Missing." After a moment of hesitation, Lu Chun opened his mouth and asked, "Are you not willing to leave this place?"

"If the son says yes, what does the father say?" Lu Que said with a faint smile. He had never seen his father before, and when he hesitated he wanted to tease him.

"Em ~" Lu Chun didn't think that his son would be so straightforward. On the contrary, he didn't know what to say. After organizing his words, he continued, "Missing son, you know, your mother is the eldest princess of the Da Gan Kingdom. Your father, I …"

"I know." Before Lu Chun could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Lu Que.

Lu Chun was startled, he looked at Lu Que's face and said, "Missing son, I know that you have been friends with the Godly Beast Mountain Spirit since you started to understand things. "This place is like a cage for us, but it is like a land of joy for you. With my child's personality, I do not care about the wealth and prosperity of the outside world, but my son, do you know …"

"I know." Before Lu Chun could finish his sentence, Lu Que interrupted him once again.

"Kid, can you listen to what I have to say?" Lu Chun was slightly infuriated.

"Father merely wanted to say that there are too many things that you and mother can't let go of while there are too many people and things that involve you. His father had already obtained the stone tablet. Although it had only been a day, with father's knowledge, he should have already discovered the secret that his son had left behind. He should already know the time and location of leaving the valley. "Just now, father only wanted to use words like 'do not seek for justice, talk about the Dao of the Heavens' to move father's son. I will follow you out, right?"

"Since I know this, then what's my reply?"

"Actually, I know that you don't really care whether or not you can leave." As he said this, Lu Que looked at his father's somewhat astonished and gratified expression and continued, "The reason Father wants to go out is more because of Mother, plus these uncles and aunties, back then, they were trapped here because of my Lu Family's matter. Father has always been in debt, right?"

Lu Que didn't wait for his father Lu Chun to speak and continued, "If these children couldn't figure it out, they wouldn't have carved that picture. Does father understand now?" As he spoke, Lu Que stood up and said, "Child, go and clean up the side room for sister Tian Xiang. We'll take our leave first."

Seeing his son Lu Que's figure disappear at the door, the expression on Lu Chun's face changed from a look of shock to a smile before he burst out laughing, "My son, after learning about the past, you have a clear understanding of the human heart."
