Great Ye Empress

Chapter 136 Mediocrity
In the blizzard, the fire was chaotic.

Care Valley chuckled lightly.

Ji Jingci said so, thinking that the relationship with his benefactor is unusual.

But...he couldn't guess the relationship between the two.

Care Valley picked up the wine jar, raised his head and took a sip, his eyes were wet and red, and he said with the strength of the wine: "Not enough! The twelve of us can survive, it is the benefactor... who gave his life to save! But the benefactor is gone... Mr. Ji, I have no way to repay my gratitude!"

Wind and snow.

Care Valley drunkenly stood up and pointed to the distance... The city of Wuwang, where thousands of homes were brightly lit on the snowy night of New Year's Eve.

With tears in his eyes, he shouted at Wuwang City: "Even the people in this city... have worshipped the wrong benefactor! They worshipped the wrong incense! They don't even know who the person who really saved them was!"

The most unforgettable thing in Caring Valley is the fearful expression on the face of the benefactor when he jumped down from here.

Not all heroes can see death as home, and they are obviously afraid... but they still choose to die. This is what makes Caring Valley admire and sadden the most.

Judging from the benefactor's age at that time, he was just a child in her 20s who was about the same age as the former princess.

Ji Jingci added firewood to the bonfire, looked at the scurrying flames, and said, "She doesn't insist on these false rituals."

Yun Chu would not care, who the people of this Wuwang City are offering incense to.

The important thing is that the people of Wuwang City survived.

The important thing is that there are at least Ji Jingci, and Caring Valley... In this world, there is a person like Yunchu who once led the army of Rong and Di to Wuwang Mountain and sacrificed his life for the people of this Wuwang City. , jumped down.

It's just, I don't know... Have the Anping Hou couple now forgotten that they once had a daughter, and they wished they could hold their hearts in front of them, and died here in order to repay their kindness.

At the end of the year, the cloud is twilight, and the yuan begins again.

On the first day of the first lunar month, the ancestral hall worships incense.

Xie Yunchu wanted to follow the old man Xie, the second master, the third master Xie and the cousins, and after they came back from the ancestral hall, they went to pay their respects to their grandmother.

As soon as she came out of Ronghe Courtyard, she was mysteriously dragged back to Furui Courtyard by her mother and eldest sister, and even Xiaoqi was taken away.

Mrs. Lu asked Qi's mother and Liu's mother to guard outside the courtyard, and no one was allowed to approach.

Only then did Mrs. Lu cautiously lower her voice and said with Xie Yunchu: "Mother plans to send you to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city on the grounds that you are preparing for the Eryue County Exam after the third year of junior high school. Then... your eldest sister will find you. As an excuse, I quietly invited a doctor to visit Zhuangzi to check your pulse."

Xie Wenman shared her suspicions with Mrs. Lu. She felt that Xie Yunchu had been taking medicine for the past few years, and his body had not improved. Perhaps it was because the doctor could not determine the gender when he checked the pulse.

Regardless of whether Xie Wenman's suspicion is right or not, as long as it is for the good of Yun Chu, as long as it is Yun Chu's chance of life, even if it is a risk, it is worth a try.

Xie Yunchu's palm tightened.

If it was in the past at this time, she might refuse.

But now, she knew that Ji Jingci was still waiting for her.

She...wanted to live.

Take a risk, or be alive.

Xie Yun looked at Lu Shi and Xie Wenman for a while, and nodded after a while: "It's going to take a lot of hard work for my mother and eldest sister, but you must be cautious. If you can't do it all, you'd rather not try! Wait until the way back to Wuwang Mountain. Do the same thing!"

Mr. Lu nodded, raised his hand and embraced Xie Yunchu in his arms.

For Lu's mother, the life of her child is at stake, so the sooner the better...

As long as there is a chance, she doesn't want to wait a day!
"Don't worry! Mother will definitely make arrangements." Lu said softly.

As noon approached, everyone in the clan came to Xie's house one after another to pay New Year's greetings to the suzerain Hongru, the old grandfather.

After the luncheon, headed by the suzerain Grandpa Xie, the most prominent sons and nephews of the Xie Clan in Chen County, or... the central figure who controls the direction of the Xie Clan's giant ship, will all gather with Grandpa Xie to drink tea in the name of tea. Grandpa's study.

This time, Uncle Xie had just been promoted to the Minister of Officials and was not able to come back.

Uncle Xie's son Erlang Xie Yunjing took Uncle Xie's handwritten letter and his father's entrustment to participate in the "Xiao Dynasty Meeting" of the Xie family for his father.

But this time, the most surprising thing was that Mrs. Xie brought Xie Yunchu with him at such an important meeting.

First, they worshiped their ancestors on New Year's Eve, and clearly established the position of Xie Yunchu's eldest grandson.

Then he asked Xie Yunchu, who was still three months away from turning fourteen, to participate in a meeting about the Xie family's strategy for the coming year.

Even Second Master Xie was surprised. Taking advantage of the time between changing clothes for Old Master Xie, he persuaded him, "Father, Liu Lang is still young. It is too early for Liu Lang to come to such an important tea party. It is better to wait a few more years."

Xie Erye knew that Xie Yunchu was a daughter, and the more his father valued his daughter, the more flustered he became.

Grandpa Xie raised his chin slightly, letting Director Wei fasten his collar, and without looking at his son, said, "Who do you think I let Liu Lang attend the tea party at such a young age?"

Grandpa Xie waved his hand to signal for Steward Wei to go down, and said while tying the buttons by himself: "Second brother, you are the eldest son, but you don't have the talents of your elder brother, so the third child thinks about letting his son adopt the second room and wait for his son. When he becomes the future suzerain, he can point his son behind his back! In fact, after all... the third child is afraid that the Xie family will be defeated in your hands!"

Xie Erye was ashamed and saluted with a long bow: "It's the son's failure to live up to his expectations, which makes the father worry."

"Your younger brother still thinks so, let alone the clan!" Mrs. Xie fastened the buttons, sat down on the soft clinical couch, looked at his son who had not yet stood up, and sighed, "Now I am in... ...and still can gather the hearts of the clan, if one day I die, my son... with your ability, can you twist the whole clan into a single rope?"

Second Master Xie didn't dare to get up, so he looked up at Old Master Xie: "It's all because my son is too mediocre."

"Although you are mediocre, your two sons are very good. Although Saburo Yunxiao is a concubine, he is a prodigy from the Five Classics... and the companion of Yan Xiaohou Ye. I heard Erlang say that the relationship between the two is very good! Rokuro..."

Speaking of Xie Yunchu, the old lady was worried, but also happy and proud: "Liu Lang was made weak by that bitch of the Cao family, but... he was only 14 years old. If you pick them out, they are all top-notch! Liu Lang's ability should not only be seen by you, me and your third brother, but also by the clansmen!"

"Let the clan know that you, Xie Jinyu, have a son like Liulang, and your father is gone in the future... The clan can only believe that when the clan is in your hands, your son will help you grow my Xie clan!"

Xie Erye had cold sweat on his back.

Originally, he wanted to survive for his wife, the Lu family, so he didn't dare to admit that Xie Yunchu was a daughter.
