< Third Update! >
The more Mr. Wen spoke, the more serious his tone became, "Even the most famous cold-blooded expert of the present age — Lei Wu Bei — wouldn't be able to be as calm as Jun Mo Xie in this regard. His contempt for human life is ingrained in his bones, and his thirst for blood is ingrained in his soul! Your Majesty, Jun Moxie is far more dangerous than anyone else! This is a creature born to kill. Even the Supreme Assassin Chu Qi Hun might not be able to match this level of danger … "
Mr. Wen paused for a long time. He couldn't describe what he was feeling. So, he unconsciously stopped speaking.
His Majesty the Emperor quivered, and shivered.
Mr. Wen didn't need to explain it too clearly. The Emperor had already realized it. The consequences could be imagined if Jun Moxie were to get his hands on the evidence that he had framed his father.
[Jun Moxie will do whatever it takes to get his hands on it!]
[And, the Emperor won't be able to shake the strength of Jun Moxie's current strength. I won't be sure even if I launch a surprise attack!] [The Jun Family will be a rare top-notch expert if they manage to escape. So, I'll have to be on tenterhooks every day in order to guard against the assassination and revenge of such an expert. My days will be miserable … That heavy psychological pressure will be enough to make a person drink a pot of water …]
[The Blood Sword Hall! I have no choice but to abandon it!] [I have to abandon it!]
"Moreover, we can only be gentle with the Jun Family. We can only be gentle to the very end." Mr. Wen suddenly smiled, "I believe that the Jun Family doesn't have any concrete evidence at the moment. So, there's still a leeway for us to turn the situation around. But, it won't be impossible for Your Majesty to repair the relationship between the two families … I remember that Senior Jun had proposed to Your Majesty that Jun Moxie would marry Princess Reimu six months ago … "
The Emperor's eyes were fixed on the setting sun. He then took a deep breath and said, "Yes, that's true."
Mr. Wen smiled. "Then, Your Majesty should have a plan."
The Emperor was silent for a moment and let out a long sigh, as if he still felt it was inappropriate. He suddenly asked, "Sir, I wonder if there are any young talents in the Hermitage?"
Mr. Wen was startled. He pondered for a long time and said, "Nothing. Although there are many otherworldly experts in the Immortal Palace, they are not young anymore … How can they still have such worldly thoughts? "
The Emperor said unwillingly, "Then … the Young Palace Lord of the Immortal Palace …?"
"The Young Palace Lord … is almost sixty years old this year …" Mr. Wen smiled bitterly, "The Young Palace Lord's son is thirty years old, and his grandson is only five or six years old. Moreover, the Immortal Palace Lord may not be willing to make an enemy out of the Jun Family even if the Emperor wishes to establish a connection with the Jun Family. After all, the strength of the Jun Family is unfathomable.
The Emperor finally sighed and said, "That being the case, we have no choice but to let Jun Moxie benefit from it."
Mr. Wen also sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you mustn't be too optimistic. It's hard to say whether the Jun Family will agree to this matter. It's hard to send charcoal in snowy weather, but it's hard to add flowers to brocade …"
The room became silent. Neither of them spoke again.
Then, they sighed at the same time after a long time …
In the The Dugu family …
Old Man Dugu Zong Heng's eyes opened wide like copper bells. He looked at his granddaughter who had been graceful a few months ago. But now, she was walking down the palanquin like a penguin. She was swaying while holding her big belly. Old Man Dugu felt as if all the blood in his body had rushed to his head.
Dugu Xiaoyi's mother let out an 'ah' sound. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. She covered her mouth, and tears started to fall down.
Everyone was petrified with their mouths agape.
Old Man Dugu finally came back to his senses. He was like a crazy tiger in a cage. He circled around several times. But, he couldn't find anything to vent his anger on. So, he suddenly roared in a depressed manner. Then, he ferociously pounced on one of his sons. Then, he started to beat up his seven grandsons. He didn't care about his body or his head, and started to beat them up in a frenzied manner.
He shouted and cursed as he beat them. His accent was very chaotic. Nobody knew what he was cursing.
The 'Heroes and Legends' rushed forward. The seven bull-like men covered their heads, and squatted down in a circle. Then, they stuck out their butts. [Cough Cough! You can beat them as much as you want. But, don't hit our faces. These seven fifteenth days of the eighth month will be dedicated to you.]
Great General Dugu Wudi covered his head and scurried away like a rat.
Dugu Xiaoyi quickly came forward to mediate. The effect was very obvious wherever she went. Everyone stayed far away from her. In fact, they were afraid of touching her. That would be terrible … Therefore, Dugu Xiaoyi became more and more complacent. She ran here and there like a firefighter. In fact, it seemed as if she was playing a fun game. A large group of women followed behind her, and shouted at her to stop.
Old Man Dugu Zong Heng's anger wasn't a rare thing in the Dugu family. Dugu Xiaoyi had also gotten used to it.
But …
Dugu Xiaoyi seemed to have gotten carried away. After all, it wasn't fun to tie such a thick pillow to one's body. Moreover, it wasn't very sturdy. Moreover, it wasn't very sturdy. But, it couldn't stop one's body from running. Therefore, it was a miracle that one could hold on until now …
Therefore, they held on for a little while. Then …
The Old Lady had been staring at her granddaughter since she had come in. But, she had suddenly discovered something that had shocked her.
The Old Lady had felt something strange the moment Dugu Xiaoyi had come in. [Look at this girl. She doesn't look like … what? Her eyebrows are tightly knitted. Her neck is straight. Her legs are long and slender. She doesn't look like she has lost her virginity. So, how can she have such a big belly? Besides, it has only been a few days. So, how can she have such a big body?]
The Old Lady's first impression was the strongest. Therefore, she couldn't figure out the mystery behind it. She was puzzled when she saw Dugu Xiaoyi's big belly slowly slide down as she ran. It started to slide from her chest to her lower abdomen. Moreover, it continued to slide down until it reached her thighs …
The Old Lady's eyes suddenly opened wide.
Dugu Xiaoyi had also sensed that something was wrong. So, she quickly and stealthily used her hands to support her lower abdomen. But, she didn't dare to run wantonly anymore. Instead, she sneakily stuck her head out to look around.
"Everyone stop! What a scandal! "The Old Lady angrily shouted as she slammed her dragon-headed walking stick on the ground.
The old man and his grandchildren were happy to be beaten. So, they were still fighting in high spirits. The one who was being beaten was shouting and yelling. It looked like a pig slaughterhouse.
"Xiao Yi! Come here! "The Old Lady didn't know what to do with the old man and his grandchildren. So, she rolled her eyes and called out.
"What … What are you doing? My body is heavy. It's inconvenient! "Dugu Xiaoyi dilly-dallied as she held her belly. She lowered her eyebrows, and looked a little guilty.
"It's not convenient for you to run around a while ago. Let me take a closer look!" The Old Lady grabbed her hand, and moved it towards her belly. Dugu Xiaoyi was startled. She spread her arms, and jumped backwards. She was as nimble as a fawn. Then, she vigilantly said, "Grandmother, what are you doing? This is your great-grandson. You must be careful … "
She hadn't finished speaking when a 'pop' sound was heard. And, the 'great-grandson' that Dugu Xiaoyi had mentioned fell out of her skirt. It bounced twice on the ground, and rolled unsteadily for less than ten feet. Then, it stopped moving. It was a round pillow. And, a lively and adorable kitten was embroidered on it.
It was a long ribbon. One end of the ribbon was connected to the pillow like a skipping rope. And, the other end was still hanging on Dugu Xiaoyi's waist …
This thing was already very active, so when Dugu Xiao Yi loosened her grip and jumped, she immediately gave herself away.
"This … this …" Dugu Xiaoyi pursed her lips, and wrung her hands. Her face was full of embarrassment. She was bashful, and couldn't say anything. Her delicate and pretty face had turned red.
This matter immediately caused another round of commotion in the entire family.
Old Man Dugu Zong Heng opened his mouth, and his fist stopped in midair. His old face had turned green and white.
Dugu Wu Di was sitting on the ground with his eyes wide open. His entire body was covered in dust.
Dugu Chung felt wronged as he looked at his grandfather. He then muttered, "I told you that nothing had happened … I told you that nothing had happened. I wouldn't have known if something had happened … I told you …"
"You told me that you're an idiot. You're asking for a beating!" Old Man Dugu Zong Heng roared like a thunderclap. Dugu Chung shrank his neck, and shut his mouth.
Old Man Dugu Zong Heng's face twisted as he strode towards Dugu Xiaoyi. He was so angry that he started to laugh, "Good! Good! Good girl! You've grown up … You can tease your grandfather now … Amazing, amazing … "He nodded fiercely. He didn't know what to say.
"Grandfather … I … Grandfather, I, I …" Dugu Xiaoyi was panic-stricken. She turned her eyes, and retreated in panic. She looked around for help. But, everyone had turned their faces to the side, and refused to help her.
[This little girl is out of control. She needs to be taught a lesson!] [What would happen if we don't teach her a lesson?] [This is too improper!] [She's the daughter of an aristocratic family. She's deceiving her family. But, she's even carrying a fake belly in front of everyone …]
"Give her a good beating!" Dugu Wu Di said what everyone was thinking.
"Help me …" Dugu Xiaoyi ran away. Old Man Dugu Zong Heng strode forward, and grabbed the long strip of cloth on the ground. Then, he exerted his strength, and 'fished' Dugu Xiaoyi … as if he was fishing. Then, he pulled her back with a whooshing sound. Then, he pressed his palm on his knee, and slapped it twice.
Dugu Xiaoyi struggled, and screamed as tears streamed down her face.
Old Man Dugu didn't feel anything when he hit his grandson. But, he felt sorry for his granddaughter after slapping her twice. So, he didn't have the heart to hit her again.
"Father, leave this disobedient girl to me! I'll make this girl … "Dugu Wu Di crawled up from the ground. He rubbed his hands, and came over with a fierce look on his face." She dared to make fun of me! She needs to be taught a good lesson. She needs to be beaten! "
"What can you do to this girl? You bastard, get lost!" Dugu Zong Heng blew his beard, and shouted, "Xiao Yi's body is delicate. How can you hit her? Get out of here and scram to the side! "
