In the Imperial Study of the Imperial Palace of the Dahan Country.
A grey-haired old man was lying on a soft bed and taking a nap. He was dressed in a yellow robe and had a crown on his head. Although he looked old, he exuded boundless majesty, like a True Dragon.
He was the emperor of the Dahan Country and the leader of the Dongfang Family, Dongfang Xiao.
After a while, Eunuch Feng bowed and came in. He whispered in Dongfang Xiao's ear, "Your Majesty, the Eighth Lord wants to see you."
Dongfang Xiao raised his wrinkled eyelids and said unhappily, "What does he come for? Haven't I already followed his wishes and made an exception to let that wild girl marry into the Dongfang Family? "
Eunuch Feng waved his hand helplessly and said, "Your Majesty, something went wrong. The Eighth Lord was cheated. Now Zhu Yan and Su Zipei have been detained by the Supreme Judiciary. "
Dongfang Xiao finally opened his eyes a little. Then he sat up straight with the help of Eunuch Feng and said, "In this case, let him come in."
After a while, Dongfang Rui came in and saluted, "Brother."
People said that he had a good relationship with the Third Brother, but they didn't know that the relationship between him and the Third Brother was the furthest. The so-called relationship was deliberately spread by the Third Brother in order to show his ability.
However, because of such a rumor, he could easily get the consent of Dongfang Xiao and let Su Zipei marry into the Dongfang Family. Unfortunately, Su Zipei became Su Li. Things became much more complicated.
"Third Brother, you don't come for nothing. I have heard about the Su Family. Since Su Zipei cheated, the Supreme Judiciary must punish her severely! I have told you before about the Dongfang Family Tree. Forget it! "
After hearing it, Dongfang Rui bowed his head and said, "Brother, I don't come for the family tree. I'll get straight to the point. The person who attacked Yun 'er that year, Imperial Brother actually knows who it is, right? "
What?
Dongfang Xiao's turbid eyes flashed with a glimmer of light. He said in a low voice, "Dongfang Rui, do you know what you are talking about?"
"I know!"
Dongfang Rui looked straight at Dongfang Xiao and didn't show any weakness. He said, "Brother! If you still care about your brotherhood, tell me who killed Yun'er! "
"How dare you!" Dongfang Xiao was furious. He stood up and scolded, "The elder brother is the father! Imperial Mother and Imperial Father have both passed away. Is this how you speak to your Third Brother? "
Plop!
Dongfang Rui knelt down without saying anything. He lowered his head and said nothing.
Dongfang Xiao was moved. He pointed at Dongfang Rui for a long time, but didn't reprimand him.
"Forget it, forget it. I won't forgive you if you offend me like this again …."
An hour later, Eunuch Feng saw that Dongfang Rui left angrily. He walked in slowly and saw that Dongfang Rui was frowning and resting. He couldn't help but worry, "Your Majesty, if you say so, Yunjing City will be in chaos."
Dongfang Xiao lay on the soft bed again and scolded with a smile, "You old servant, do you really think that I will impulsively tell him the murderer because of Eighth Brother's heartfelt words?"
Eunuch Feng's expression changed slightly. "Then …"
"The Wu Clan has indeed become a little arrogant in recent years." Dongfang Xiao closed his eyes and said slowly, but his words were full of bloodthirst. He said, "It's okay to let Eighth Brother kill the Wu Clan's spirit, and …"
Dongfang Xiao sneered and said, "Those stupid sons of mine really think that they can win by cooperating with a ninth-grade sect? As the sons of the Dongfang Clan, they don't think about defending the family against external enemies and solving internal troubles. Instead, they invite a wolf into the house. They are a group of idiots! "
Eunuch Feng quickly lowered his head. At this moment, what he had to do was to listen. Being in the emperor's company was like being with a tiger. If he talked nonsense, the consequences would be bad.
"In the past, the Dongfang Clan and the Hehuan Sect were no different. They were rootless duckweeds. If they were careless, they would be destroyed in the martial arts circle. After several generations of efforts, the Dongfang Clan became the ruler of a country. Its status is comparable to that of the eighth-grade sect! But Sheng and others did compromise to cooperate with the Hehuan Sect. How short-sighted they were! "
Speaking of this, Dongfang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and said, "So what? Since the Eighth Brother is willing to take action, I will take this opportunity to teach Sheng and others a lesson. I will let them know what real power is! "
Eunuch Feng was in a cold sweat. The emperor's simple answer actually involved so many intentions. It was really difficult to guess the emperor's mind.
He thought of Lord Rui who left angrily and sighed in his heart.
The most heartless was the Emperor's family. This saying was true no matter which dynasty it was in, it was applicable.
…
Su Li stayed in the Affiliated School of the National Academy recently and didn't go out.
She wanted to go to the Linli Building to have a look, but many people of the Lord's Mansion were hiding around. In particular, Wu Bin's cultivation reached the inborn sixth hurdle, which was only one hurdle lower than hers. It was extremely difficult to deal with him. If she disappeared rashly, she would definitely be discovered.
Fortunately, this situation didn't last for a long time. Wu Bin was called back by Dongfang Rui. A group of Royal Guards with low cultivation couldn't stop her.
In the middle of the night, Su Li changed into night clothes and left the Affiliated School. She rushed to the Linli Building. But she met Fang Yuan on the way. They stood on the roof and looked at each other for a moment. Then Fang Yuan immediately went back.
Since Su Li came, he didn't have to take risks in the Affiliated School.
When they arrived at the Linli Building, Yin Xuetong opened the back door vigilantly. When she saw Fang Yuan and Su Li, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She patted her chest and said, "I was scared to death. How did you come so fast?"
"I met them on the way."
Fang Yuan explained and followed Su Li into the room. They went all the way to the underground adytum.
"Where is Qu Qingning?" Su Li glanced at them and didn't see the face with a smirk all the time. She actually felt a little unaccustomed.
"Su Li, I was just about to tell you." Yin Xuetong was happy and said, "Qu Qingning went outside the city to break through!"
Su Li slightly raised her eyebrows. That guy was so lucky to encounter the opportunity to break through the inborn realm?
"It is related to the winery next door."
Thinking of the rumors in the city these days and the words that Qu Qingning asked her to convey, Yin Xuetong and Fang Yuan couldn't help but feel complicated. They always had doubts about Su Li's origin. Until now, they didn't know that Su Li was the princess of the Dahan Country.
Seeing their subtle expressions, Su Li raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Why? Do you think that the position of princess can make me give up everything in front of me and go back with Dongfang Rui to recognize my ancestors?"
"Su Li." Yin Xuetong was moved and said, "If it is just because of us, you don't have to …"
"It is not because of you."
Su Li interrupted Yin Xuetong and said indifferently, "My goal is not to be a member of the royal family. You just need to keep the agreement between us and don't care about other things. "
Su Li's words were very heartless. But Fang Yuan and Yin Xuetong were not stupid. They naturally knew that Su Li dissociated herself from them because she didn't want them to have too much burden.
"Alas …"
Yin Xuetong sighed softly and didn't mention the previous things. She said, "In addition to practicing, Qingning stayed underground every day to eavesdrop on the movements next door. He really heard something very shocking. He took this opportunity to find the opportunity to break through. He told me in a hurry and went outside the city to break through. "
"What a lucky guy. What did he hear?"
Su Li shook her head and laughed. Before the age of twenty, people had simple life experiences. It was not easy to break through the inborn realm. It was totally lucky to break through like Qu Qingning.
Yin Xuetong looked strange and said, "Su Li, the pair of seniors in the inborn realm next door seem to be … your elders."
Huh?
Su Li was slightly stunned. Yin Xuetong continued, "Qu Qingning heard that they always wanted to see you, but they couldn't find the opportunity. The proprietress seems to be the elder sister of a person named "Xiaoyun". If I remember correctly, your biological mother seems to be called … Su Yun? "
Fang Yuan also looked strange. Yin Xuetong kept them guessing and didn't want to say it a few days ago. In this way, weren't Xuan Jingzhou and his wife Su Li's aunt and uncle?
In that case, their previous efforts to rope in the two of them would have been in vain.
Su Li was silent. She unconsciously recalled the events of the previous life. Unfortunately, the memory of the proprietress in the previous life was too little. She had no impression of how she died.
"Su Li, why don't we go to the next door to sound it out?"
Fang Yuan suddenly suggested. Su Li rubbed her eyebrows and waved her hand. She walked into the depth of the adytum and said, "Don't act rashly and alert the enemy. The authenticity of the news has not been confirmed. It is not wise to go rashly. We will observe this matter for the time being. Tomorrow, you and I will go to see Qu Lu … "
The cold voice gradually faded away. Yin Xuetong was full of admiration and couldn't help but praise, "This matter is clearly related to her relatives, but she did not lose her calm and still made the most accurate judgment. She deserves to be the person I admire!"
Seeing that Yin Xuetong was infatuated with Su Li, Fang Yuan shook his head and turned away.
Calm?
Why did he think that Su Li was more afraid? Just like "the closer you are to your hometown, the more timid you are". Her relatives were only separated by a wall, but she didn't have the courage to see them …
At this moment, in the deepest part of the adytum, Su Li closed the stone door and took a deep breath. She sat down against the stone wall and thought deeply.
Would the proprietress be her aunt …
If so many years had passed. Xuan Jingzhou and the proprietress had always been in Yunjing. Were they also there that night when her mother escaped from Yunjing?
She wanted to ask clearly, but as Fang Yuan thought, she was afraid. She was afraid that the news Qu Qingning heard was just an illusion, like flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water.
"After seeing Qu Lu tomorrow, I will make a plan."
Putting aside the distracting thoughts, Su Li's eyes became clear. She still had a lot of things to do. She could not avenge her mother and fulfill Ling Li's wish just by talking.
She lit the stone lamp, and the light in the stone room was illuminated. Eight topless coffins came into view. The people lying in the coffins were the killers she had brought back from the hunting ground.
At this moment, Su Li took a deep breath. As her eyes turned, a wisp of dead gray suddenly emerged from the bottom of her eyes.
At the moment when the dead silence appeared, the eight corpses lying in the coffins suddenly trembled, and then sat up straight from the coffins. Their eyes lit up!
That was the green light emitted by the corpse puppet!
