low-key is king

Chapter 160 With Xiao Xun'er here, why worry about big things failing?

"Hey, where did Yang Xun and his son go?"

Amidst the noise, a voice suddenly came out, making everyone stunned, and the faces of some Watanabe Castle warriors also became extremely ugly at this moment.

To say that what these Watanabe Castle warriors hate the most is probably not the army that attacked Watanabe Castle, or Yan Qingxi and others, but the original Watanabe City Lord who abandoned the city and fled when the Hai Clan attacked.

Many people had seen before that Yang Xun was following Yan Qingxi, but at that time, everyone only paid attention to Yan Qingxi, Yan Rongli, or Jin Wanzhou, Luo Bailu and other strong men.

In front of these five-realm powerhouses, or in front of Yan Xi, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, Yang Xun was automatically ignored.

But now that the war is over, many people think of the "Master City Lord" who abandoned the whole city.

It's a pity that no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find any trace of Yang Xun. Looking at the tens of thousands of troops in the vast crowd, a thought rose in their hearts.

"This Yang Xun has a really big life!"

Even Lu Mingyang shook his head helplessly. It seems that Yang Xun saw that the situation was not good, he got mixed into the army, and he might have changed into the armor of an ordinary soldier. It would be unrealistic to find him.

But for Yang Xun, a martial artist with only four levels, Lu Mingyang didn't take it seriously at all, if he saw it, he would kill him.

Just relying on Yang Xun and his son, plus a Master Huaguang, what kind of waves can they afford?
"The army rests and sets off tomorrow!"

Lu Mingyang didn't care about an insignificant pawn. After the order was issued, since Wu Jiang and others under the supervision of Zhang Wen and the others had rectified the army, he believed that one night would be enough.

Lu Mingyang, who returned to Watanabe City and Zhendong Prince's Mansion, keenly sensed a strange atmosphere, which made him come to the palace as quickly as possible.

"My lord, you are back!"

When Lu Mingyang had just opened the door of the palace, there was a voice of surprise from inside the palace, and at the same time, it was not only the concubine who caught his eyes, but also several familiar figures.

"Yuezhang, two uncles!"

Seeing this, Lu Mingyang hurried forward, first saluted his father-in-law Zhao Qidong, and then greeted the two uncles next to him.

These are naturally the three fathers and sons of the Prime Minister's Mansion that Lu Xun brought out from the capital. The mother of the princess died early, so the four closest relatives of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

When the princess saw her father and two elder brothers earlier, she was so excited that tears filled her eyes. She had been looking forward to meeting her father and elder brothers.

It was only because of the sudden battle outside the city that the three armies besieged the city, which made the princess very worried.

Fortunately, Watanabe Castle turned from defense to offense and won three consecutive victories. Zhao Qidong and others finally entered Watanabe Castle because of the opportunity.

Naturally, Lu Xun was not by his side at the moment. After all, the two Zhao family brothers did not know his true identity, so it was not appropriate for him to show up before these two.

Even if the other party is one of his own, he still has to be careful.

When the mother, daughter, and brother and sister met, it was naturally quite lively, and the news that came from outside the west gate made the Zhendong Palace even more joyful.

But relatively speaking, the concubine's side was happy and harmonious, while the side concubine's hall was a bit bleak, and the gathering of the concubine's family reflected the misery of the entire Xu family being killed.

But Xu Fengyi also knew that this matter could not be blamed on the Zhendong Prince's House, and that the matter of Yan Rongdao stepping on his horse and beheading Xu Mingfeng could only be attributed to the dominance of the Yan clan.

At this time, it is impossible for Xu Fengyi to anger Zhendong Wangfu. She still counts on Zhendong Wang, who is about to raise an incident, to help her kill that old bastard from the Yan family and avenge the Xu family.

"Bicheng, Minglou, you go out first, and discuss matters with your brother-in-law for your father!"

After a short reminiscence, Zhao Qidong patted the shoulders of the two sons lightly, and what he said, although the two brothers were a little dissatisfied, they could only leave the hall obediently.

Watching the backs of the two brothers leaving for a while, Zhao Qidong finally turned his head, and then stared at Zhendong Wang and his wife for a while, which made the latter two a little puzzled.

"Lijing, you have given birth to a good son!"

After a long time, Zhao Qidong spoke with emotion, and he heard him say: "If it wasn't for Xiao Xun'er this time, my old life might have to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

"Yuezhang is serious. You are the grandfather of that little bastard. Shouldn't he save you?"

Hearing that King Zhendong was extremely proud, he still waved his hands and said humbly, but just after the words fell, he was glared at by Zhao Qidong, and he couldn't help touching his neck in embarrassment.

"What should you mean? You asked a little Xun'er who just broke through to the four realms to go to the capital of Longtan and Tiger's Den alone to save me, an old man, are you not worried about his safety at all?"

As the prime minister of a country, Zhao Qidong is an old man who has followed the previous generation of monarchs, and he is also an elder of the current monarch and King Zhendong, so he doesn't have too many scruples in speaking.

This blatant accusation made King Zhendong even more embarrassed.

But Lu Mingyang didn't know how to refute it. He naturally knew that Lu Xun only had four martial masters, and even when he left Zhendong Palace, he didn't seem to have made a breakthrough.

Where is the capital of Xuanyang Kingdom? Not to mention a four-level martial artist, even a five-level perfect martial artist like Lu Mingyang may not be able to retreat unscathed if he goes there.

Even until now, Lu Mingyang still doesn't understand, how did Lu Xun bring the Prime Minister's family back to Watanabe City safely in Tianyang City surrounded by wolves?

"Father, it's no wonder the lord, it was Xun'er who went to the capital to save people on his own initiative, and didn't tell us in advance!"

At this time, the princess had to speak for her husband. In fact, although she knew that there was nothing wrong with Lu Xun going to the capital to save people, she was actually worried for a long time.

"Little Xun'er, you've really grown up!"

Zhao Qidong didn't really want to accuse Lu Mingyang of anything, he just rushed to the point of his words just now, and now that the princess came out to smooth things over, he once again sighed.

"Hehe, father, is this reminding you of the time when that kid burned your beard?"

Speaking of this, the princess couldn't help showing a smile on her face. This incident was widely circulated in the palace and even in the entire imperial capital.

Especially when Zhao Qidong went to court for the first time after his beard was burned off, many people wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, which made King Zhendong still vivid in his memory.

And this is just one of the "big things" that Lu Xun did back then. Compared to urinating on the dragon case in the Palace of Qinzheng, things like burning beards are not worth mentioning at all.

These past events are vivid in my mind, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

The incarnate demon king who was well-known in the entire Xuanyang country back then has grown to the point where he can stand alone, making the three people in the palace seem like they are separated from each other.

Everyone knew about beard burning, and they couldn't hide it even if they wanted to. Zhao Qidong naturally had no choice but to do anything about it. As for the other matter, he wouldn't tell it even if he was beaten to death, so he could only let Lu Xun know about it.

"Father, let me tell you one more thing, don't be too surprised!"

The princess suddenly remembered something, paused intentionally, and then said: "Actually, the judge is Xun'er!"

"what?!"

Even though Zhao Qidong had made sufficient preparations, when he heard the news, he still couldn't hold back, and jumped up from his chair with a face full of disbelief.

At this moment, Zhao Qidong not only knew the truth about the battle between Watanabe City and the Sea Clan, but also the major event that happened outside Ximen City.

Naturally, there are messengers in the Zhendong Palace to spread the news of the battle outside the city continuously. Whether it is victory or defeat, the princess can know the result of the battle at the first time.

What happened outside the west gate earlier, the messenger soldiers have already reported back to Zhendong Palace in detail. As Zhao Qidong, he is naturally qualified to hear about it, and he also knows that it was the judge who saved Watanabe Castle again.

But Zhao Qidong always thought that the judge was the killer of the Hidden Killing Society. At the beginning, the Hidden Killing Society would only attack because it was the common enemy of the human race, the Hai Clan, but it would never care about the civil war in Xuanyang Kingdom.

Later, when he heard that Yinhu and the judge had taken action one after another, which drastically changed the situation of the battle, Zhao Qidong was naturally surprised and delighted, and still had some doubts, but he never thought about the judge on Lu Xun.

"Father, I said that Xun'er is the judge!"

Seeing his father's state, Zhao Lijing was quite proud, and then emphasized something, finally pulled Zhao Qidong's mind back, and subconsciously took a deep breath.

"Oh, I'm really old, I can't understand these young people at all!"

Forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart, Zhao Qidong just let out a sigh of emotion in the next moment, his precious little grandson really gave him more and more surprises.

"With Xiao Xun'er here, why worry about a major event failing?"

After a while, Zhao Qidong once again let out a sigh of emotion, which made the concubine at the side deeply think that she now has great confidence in her youngest son.

Whether it was Watanabe Castle's efforts to turn the tide at that time, or going into the capital alone to save the prime minister's family, or the victory of the previous siege battle, it was all Lu Xun's secret plan.

The concubine also clearly knew how the Zhendong Palace was in disarray in the year before Lu Xun's return, and even the power of the palace was in danger of being taken away by the third wife, mother and son.

And since Lu Xun came back, everything seemed to be solved, the ambitions of the third wife, mother and son collapsed, and the prince woke up from his coma.

Including Lu Linger's blood exhaustion disease, which was also greatly relieved by Lu Xun's means, no longer had to experience the pain of life worse than death in the past.

Except that the eldest son Lu Zheng is still stupid, there seems to be nothing that Lu Xun can't do. Now that the Zhendong Palace has won [-] soldiers, the counterattack horn is about to sound.

And all of this, in Wang Hao's heart, was almost brought by Lu Xun alone.
