Chapter 216 Return
"Later, my sister was captured by Lin Ao's men, and my father and mother died at Lin Ao's hands in order to save my sister."
"The other half of the Dark Night Order that Lin Ao wanted is in my hands. I hid for six years and finally figured out the secret of the Dark Night Order."
"The Dark Night Order is divided into the Power Order and the Martial Order. Back then, Lin Ao only got the Power Order, but never got the Martial Order, so he was always worried."
"As long as you learn all the martial arts in the martial arts order, you can become the real ruler of the Dark Night, and it will be easy to kill Lin Ao."
"Later, I successfully took revenge, slaughtered all of Lin Ao's relatives and servants, and completely controlled Dark Night."
After hearing this, Shao Siyan simply couldn't accept that all the disasters and hardships he had endured were caused by Shao Qiuwan's willfulness.
There were 288 lives lost in Yaowang Valley, plus 123 lives from the Shao family, a total of 411 lives.
They were all killed by Shao Qiuwan alone.
His eyes were red. How could these be relatives?
This is clearly the son of the enemy!
He pushed Lin Xu away fiercely and roared, "Get lost—"
"Get out of here! I don't have a cousin like you, and I don't have an aunt like Shao Qiuwan who disregards her family and is selfish!"
Lin Xu's face was filled with guilt. He said with difficulty: "Ayan, I know you can't accept these facts... But no matter what, you and I are now the only blood relatives in this world..."
Shao Siyan grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it hard, and the cup hit the ground and broke into pieces.
"roll--"
Lin Xu pursed her lips, stopped talking, and left the room.
In the boudoir of the main courtyard, Qi Yue was lying down and enjoying Jiang Lin's service.
He Xiang was a little worried when she learned about what was happening in Shao Siyan's courtyard, but she didn't want to disturb Qi Yue's interest.
I had no choice but to send another maid to Shao Siyan to find out the situation.
Ever since Shao Siyan and Lin Xu had their late night conversation, their already bad relationship has completely reached a freezing point.
It was just Shao Siyan's unilateral freezing point, while Lin Xu was filled with guilt all the time.
Naturally, this requires Qi Yue, the middleman and sweetheart, to mediate.
Therefore, all of Lin Xu's opportunities to sleep with the emperor were changed to Shao Si Yan.
Lin Xu could only swallow his anger with his eyes wide open.
From then on, Lin Xu, who was forced to abstain from sex, looked not only guilty but also resentful towards her husband.
After Qi Yue's guidance, although Shao Siyan still had a bad face towards Lin Xu, he was no longer as cold as before.
Besides, Wuming will arrive in Kyoto City in a few days.
He first sent a pigeon message back to the princess's mansion, asking Qi Yue to arrange for the manor to accommodate the cows he brought back.
Qi Yue was happier to receive this news than to receive a brocade box of silver notes. There has been so much good news in the past few days.
Because Guita Anzhen was injured, the business was delayed.
The Jingzhao Yin directly confiscated Lin Fugui's pawnshop and auctioned it off by the government, but after all, it was a shop that offended the eldest princess. Who would dare to buy it? Isn't this deliberately going against the eldest princess?
In the end, Qi Yue bought the shop for less than 30% of the market price.
The shop was directly registered under Guita Anzhen's name, and people were arranged to renovate it.
Guita Anzhen was injured, so the affairs of the shop naturally fell on Anze, and Xiangzhu was also sent over to help.
When the shop was officially opened, the fixation plate on Guita Anzhen's arm was also removed.
Because of the eldest princess, the shop was very busy on the first day it opened. Many wealthy and powerful merchants came to the shop to show their support, all in order to curry favor with the princess.
Everyone thought that Qi Yue was just setting up this shop for fun, but after everyone tasted the food in it, the shop became popular again.
It’s because these foods are both novel and delicious, something I have never heard of or tasted before.
Anze had never done business before, and he was busy every day at the beginning.
Fortunately, Qi Yue sent him a few maids to help him, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to figure out the money accounts.
When they got home in the evening, Qi Yue arranged for Jiang Lin to help An Ze with cultural knowledge and arithmetic, and Liang Cen was also dragged to attend the class together.
Later, Guita Anzhen also joined the group attending the class.
On the other side, Murong Heli's ceremonial procession had already entered the border of Dayi.
The current betrothal surplus is 70 percent.
In summary, the two troops dispatched are still somewhat useful.
However, once they entered the border of Dayi, these two teams could no longer continue to escort the guard of honor.
Murong Heli thought about it again and again, and finally came up with a solution.
Anyway, Lin Xu will definitely give the things back to Qi Yue. In this case, why not use him to escort the betrothal gifts to Kyoto City.
It saves both worry and effort, isn’t that great?
So the procession stopped again to rest, and did not continue on its journey until two hours later.
This time, the guards who had been guarding the betrothal gifts strictly were much more lax.
Murong Heli was leaning leisurely in the carriage drinking tea, while Yue Xing was kneeling opposite him, looking quite confused.
"Your Highness, you asked me to stay here with you. What if the betrothal gift is snatched away again?"
Murong Heli said meaningfully: "It would be better if they are all snatched away."
Yue Xing's eyes widened in shock: "Your Highness, are you so angry that you are confused?"
Murong Heli narrowed his eyes and looked at him coldly. Realizing that he had accidentally spoken out his true feelings, he quickly covered his mouth.
Then he knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily: "Your Highness, I was wrong."
Murong Heli said with disdain: "Get out, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will cut off your tongue and feed it to the dogs."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another burst of panic outside the carriage.
The people from the dark night came again to steal things.
"Go down later. Wait until they finish robbing you before you get out."
Yue Xing lay there, not daring to move, until things outside the carriage became quiet again, then he cautiously retreated.
This time, the betrothal gift was reduced from 70% to 40%.
One guard rubbed his arm and cursed, "Don't these people from the Dark Night get any decent orders? Why do they always come to rob us?"
"That's right, they are even more hateful than bandits!"
"Okay, stop talking now. Be careful if the people in the Dark Night hear you. Next time, they will not only steal your things, so be careful of your life!"
After receiving the good news from his subordinates, Lin Xu's bad mood that had accumulated over the past few days was relieved a lot.
Wuming also returned to Kyoto City, sent someone to report the news to the princess's mansion, and then went to the palace to meet Qi Junqi first.
This time, he did not wear a human skin mask, and caused an uproar as soon as he entered the palace.
When Xun An saw his true appearance, he exclaimed, "Master...Master!"
Wuming pursed his lips, did not refute, and asked: "Where is His Majesty?"
Xun An looked at the black hair, and then looked carefully at his eyes, which were red.
Tears of excitement instantly flowed down his face, and he grabbed his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes.
"Your Majesty is in the Imperial Study, Imperial Master, please follow me."
