"Tianzheyi, I believe you should be able to reunite with your parents soon."

Situ Ye caressed the head of the little girl in front of him lovingly, just like Tianlang caressed his nephew Tianqi's head back then.

Although Tianzheyi's identity has not been confirmed, Situ Ye has a strong feeling in his heart that Tianzheyi is indeed Tianlang's great-niece, otherwise he would not have an inexplicable sense of familiarity and intimacy with this little girl whom he has never met.

I don't know if something happened when the Tian family was executed...

Situ Ye hoped desperately that Tian Zheyi was Tianqi's child, which would mean that Tianlang's nephew was still alive and the Tian family was not destroyed...

"Really?"

Tian Zheyi blinked her beautiful big eyes and looked at Situ Ye expectantly. Then she said, "Okay, since it's what big brother said, Zheyi will believe it."

"Of course it's true. But from now on you can't call me big brother. You should call me uncle." Situ Ye raised the corners of his lips slightly, raised his hand and patted Tian Zheyi's head lightly, looking at her with eyes full of doting.

Fortunately, Tianlang didn't know that his entire family would be executed before he died, and fortunately, Tianlang's nephew might still be alive... This was the first time that Situ Ye felt comforted since he knew about Tianlang's experience.

"Uncle?"

Tian Zheyi looked at Situ Ye in confusion after hearing this: "But big brother, you are so young, even younger than my father, how can you be Zheyi's uncle?"

"You're a little brat, but from now on I'm your great uncle. Come on, I'll take you to see someone."

Situ Ye said this in a tone that brooked no argument, and then took Tian Zheyi's hand and left the Qiyuntai. Regardless of whether Tian Zheyi was Tianqi's child in the end, just because her father knew the Tian family sword technique, Situ Ye planned to recognize this niece on behalf of Tianlang.

"Well... okay then."

Tian Zheyi sighed helplessly. Who told her to like this older brother? So what? Uncle, so what?

I just wonder if her father will spank her when he finds out that she has a new uncle?

"Mr. Situ, Shan Zuo needs to go to the villa in the city to see the children now. I'll trouble you to take care of Tianzheyi." Seeing that Tianzheyi and Situ Ye got along well, Shan Zuo decisively got rid of this burden.

"Well, go ahead."

Situ Ye also knew that Shan Zuo was not the kind of person who liked to hang out with other kids, so he didn't force him to follow.

"Uncle, where are we going now?"

Tian Zheyi, with her little hand held by Situ Ye, looked curiously at the pavilions, towers and beautiful gardens they passed by.

"You'll know soon." Situ Ye kept Tian Zheyi in suspense.

At the time of Si, in the study room of Lingkun Courtyard in the Eastern Palace.

"Lord Zheng, Lord Situ Cejun comes to see you with a little girl." Shu Mo bowed and reported to Mu Lige who was reading "The Art of War" at the desk.

"Little girl?" Mu Lige was slightly surprised.

First, the young wife brought back Ermao, and now the second brother brought back a little girl?

"Reporting to Mr. Zheng, this is a child rescued from Xiangyang Temple last night." Shu Mo explained.

"Well, let them in."

Mu Lige knew that Situ Ye had brought someone to see him specifically, and there must be a deeper meaning behind it, so he directly asked Shu Mo to let the person into the study.

"Yes, Masaru-kun."

After receiving the order, Shu Mo bowed and left, and let Situ Ye and Tian Zheyi who were waiting at the door enter the study.

"Brother!" Situ Ye closed the door after entering the study.

"Second brother, who is she?" Mu Lige looked at the little girl held in Situ Ye's hand in confusion.

"Hello handsome big brother, I'm Tianzheyi." Tianzheyi blushed slightly when Mu Lige looked at her. She had never seen such a handsome big brother before...

"Handsome big brother?" Mu Lige, sitting at the desk, couldn't help but smile when she heard this. And...it's really a very special name...

"You are the most handsome big brother Zheyi has ever seen. You are more handsome than my great uncle, and only... only slightly inferior to my father!" Tian Zheyi said seriously.

"oh?"

"Then your great uncle and your father must be very handsome!"

Mu Lige smiled faintly, her eyes as charming as autumnal glances. Children speak without restraint, but he wasn't angry. In a child's mind, their father is naturally the most perfect.

Moreover, Mu Lige didn't care about appearance. After all, his body and hair were inherited from his parents, and his appearance was given by his father and mother. How could he be unhappy about what others said about him?

"Handsome big brother, you are so smart. My father is like my great uncle, as tall as a tree. He is the most handsome man in our village, otherwise my mother would not have married him." Tian Zheyi looked proud.

"Then I really want to meet your great uncle someday." Seeing that the child always used his great uncle as a reference, Mu Lige couldn't help but joked.

"There's no need to be so troublesome, handsome big brother, you can see him now." Tian Zheyi said while pointing to Situ Ye beside him.

"You? Uncle?"

Mu Lige looked back and forth between Situ Ye and Tian Zheyi, seemingly puzzled.

If he heard correctly, the girl just now was talking about her mother marrying her father. In other words... this girl is from a country where men are respected? Moreover, she is most likely from Zhaoyang Country and is related to... Tianlang?

In just a moment, Mu Lige had already guessed Tian Zheyi's identity.

"Brother, Tian Zheyi said that her father's name is Tianji, and... her father also knows the Tian family's swordsmanship. Although I don't know what happened when the Tian family was executed, I suspect that Tianji is Tianlang's nephew Tianqi." Situ Ye told Mu Lige his guess.

"The Tian family is full of loyal and brave people. Back then, our grandfather believed Su Mu Tianjun's slander and ordered the execution of his entire family. It is indeed the Su Mu family who has wronged them."

Although Mu Lige was only one year old when the Wushan Bandit Suppression Campaign took place, that didn't mean he wouldn't feel sorry for the wronged Tian Family when he grew up. In the future, when he avenged his parents, he would naturally redress the Tian Family's wrongs...

"The past is gone, the dead can no longer be brought back to life. The most important thing now is to find Tian Zheyi's parents."

Because of Tian Lang's memories, Situ Ye's hatred for Su Mu Tianjun was no less than Mu Lige's. Now, all he could do was protect this Tian family bloodline and return to Zhaoyang Kingdom with his elder brother in the near future to avenge Tian Lang and his family.
