The mountains in the distance overlapped, and the green vegetation made people feel refreshed. But when everyone from the Sun and Song families thought of the battle last night, the feeling of satisfaction that had just arisen disappeared.
Song Changying looked at Zhao Shuai in front of him. In the past, Zhao Shuai spoke very politely to the head of the family, and the Song family also knew that Zhao Shuai had served the Song family for nearly two hundred years purely to repay the family's kindness.
But after last night, Zhao Shuai seemed to have changed a little, but also seemed to have not changed.
Song Changying laughed dryly. "A new noble family? It's a little too early to say that. "
"It's not early." Zhao Shuai shook his head. "Twelve of the nine noble families in Royal City chose to stand on the opposite side of Mituryū Kanao in this war. You may not know about Lord Wu Weijun, but as far as I know, no one can escape unscathed after offending him, even Duanmu Huangqi is no exception."
Song Changying felt suffocated. Yes, even Duanmu Huangqi was killed at the city gate, so who were the noble families of Royal City?
And Zhao Shuai in front of him and Xiao Mingze in Royal City had begun to invest a long time ago. Song Changying suddenly remembered what happened to the Song family some time ago.
The magic armor that Xiao Mingze gave to Lü Shu came from the Song family's warehouse, which was the Song family's trump card. But the Song family had been a noble family for a long time, and the people above them might not know what was in the warehouse. They enjoyed themselves every day and did not pay attention to these things.
But there are no walls in the world that do not have ears. On the ninth day after Lü Shu left Royal City, the matter of Xiao Mingze giving him the magic armor was exposed.
At that time, Xiao Mingze was punished by the head of the Song family to kneel in the courtyard. The head of the Song family remembered some old friendship and asked Xiao Mingze why he did this. Xiao Mingze only replied with four words: a rare commodity.
From that day on, not only did Xiao Mingze not die, but he was protected by the head of the Song family. The servant who reported that Xiao Mingze stole the magic armor to Lü Shu was sentenced to death by the head of the Song family. Not only that, even the servants in the Song Family who knew about this matter were all sentenced to death.
Zhao Shuai and Xiao Mingze were respectively the Head Consecrator and the Head Shopkeeper respectively, but they knew very well that if they didn't survive this crisis, they would be the ones to be sentenced to death.
In the end, he was still just a servant if he worked with the aristocrats of Royal City.
In fact, Zhao Shuai had already made an agreement with Xiao Mingze to leave the Song family before he left King City.
Now, Song Zhangying felt that the patriarch's decision was very wise. Only those who had personally faced Wu Weijun would understand that in this comfortable and peaceful Lü Zhou, the aristocratic families of Royal City were like helpless lambs, while Wu Weijun was a lion, wolf, tiger, or leopard that ate the lambs.
At this moment, heavy footsteps sounded in the mountains in the distance. Song Zhangying looked in that direction nervously. He knew who was coming, and the other party was powerful enough to dominate the lives of everyone here.
When Mituryū Kanao appeared on the horizon, Zhao Shuai took the initiative to go forward to greet him. Song Zhangying suddenly felt that Zhao Shuai's expression at this moment was like the radiance on Zhao Shuai's face when he first came to the Song family more than a hundred years ago.
Some people from the Sun family's army were also rushing over. Song Zhangying saw that they were wearing heavy armor, but he couldn't tell which big shot of the Sun family had come.
The three sides finally met in the open space. Zhao Shuai cupped his hands to Lü Shu, who was at the front of Mituryū Kanao. "How have you been, Your Majesty?"
Lü Shu smiled. Lü Xiaoyu, who was next to him, threw out a Mountain-shaking Armor from his space equipment. Lü Xiaoyu said calmly, "Wear it, or not? Choose. After the war, you can go to Royal City and become a rich man. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Shuai was overjoyed. With this promise, there would definitely be a place for him in Royal City in the future!
Song Zhangying, who was next to him, was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Zhao Shuai to leave the Song family so suddenly, nor did he expect that Wu Weijun's people had already regarded Royal City as theirs.
After settling the matter with Zhao Shuai, Lü Shu looked at the armored commander of the Sun family. Lü Shu looked at the commander's mask and smiled. "What is the matter for the Sun family's leader to come here personally?"
Song Zhangying looked to the side in shock. Sun Xiuwen had actually personally led the troops here? Wasn't Sun Xiuwen supposed to be guarding the ancestral grave? Calculating the time, Sun Xiuwen had only been guarding the ancestral grave for seven days. According to the customs of Royal City, it would take at least three years.
Sun Xiuwen pulled off his mask and smiled. "Your Majesty is indeed perceptive. Even with the mask on, I was still recognized."
No one had expected that the other great clans of the Royal City would send their more important figures to lead their troops here. Even their patriarchs would not participate in this kind of thing. After all, if something were to happen here, everything would be over.
Yet, as the leader of the Sun family, Sun Xiuwen had actually put himself in danger!
Lü Shu smiled. "You're quite bold. How dare you come here personally? Did advancing to a Great Grandmaster give you confidence? "
"Being a Great Grandmaster is not my source of confidence. It won't be that difficult for Your Majesty to kill a Great Grandmaster. I came here because I feel that Your Majesty won't kill me." Sun Xiuwen smiled. "Only by coming here personally can I express my full sincerity. I'm putting my life in front of Your Majesty. If Your Majesty wants to take it, I, Sun Xiuwen, will not resist."
Song Zhangying felt that today had really broadened his horizons. First, the leader of the Sun family had put himself in danger. Now, a Great Grandmaster had lowered his stance in front of Lü Shu. Furthermore, he was confident that Lü Shu could kill a Great Grandmaster!
At this moment, Song Zhangying discovered that the people behind Lü Shu in black armor actually had their arms hidden in their waist armor. It was as if they were hiding some extremely important weapon that could even kill a Great Grandmaster.
Suddenly, Sun Xiuwen asked, "May I ask, Your Majesty, is my son still alive?"
Lü Shu smiled. He had long heard that Sun Xiuwen especially treasured his son. At that time, he had been a little disdainful because he had always felt that even the blood ties between father and son in wealthy families had been diluted by the desire for fame.
But now, it seemed that Sun Xiuwen, as the number one Great Grandmaster of a wealthy family, was the one who valued relationships the most.
Lü Shu said, "He's fine, but I realized that his education level is a little low. I'll give him some supplementary lessons."
Sun Xiuwen smiled and said, "It's his honor that Your Majesty is personally giving him supplementary lessons."
Sun Xiuwen only felt at ease after knowing that Sun Zhongyang was fine. At this moment, Lü Shu asked, "Since you've placed such a huge bet, you have to ask for something from me, right? Why don't we talk about this? "
Song Zhangying pricked up his ears and listened. He also wanted to know what Sun Xiuwen wanted to do. At this moment, Song Zhangying no longer dared to interrupt and could only listen obediently.
Sun Xiuwen's expression gradually calmed down. "I, Sun Xiuwen, have come to ask for the position of Emperor Of Heaven."
Lü Shu was stunned for a moment. "Ask for the position of Emperor Of Heaven? Why are you looking for me?"
In the end, Sun Xiuwen suddenly brushed away his clothes and heavy armor and knelt down in a dignified manner toward Lü Shu. He buried his head deep between his arms, offering his life and fate to Lü Shu. Sun Xiuwen inhaled and said, "It's because the position of Emperor Of Heaven is in my Majesty's hands. Your subject, Sun Xiuwen, welcomes your return."
