low-key is king
Chapter 228 The Old Land
Chapter 228 The Old Land
"Let me tell you the truth, my Tan family has already thought of a way out. My mother's brother is the son of the prime minister of the Jinfeng Kingdom. Since this Xuanyang Kingdom can no longer stay, we can only switch to another country!"
Since everyone is already a grasshopper on a rope, Tan Xiao also knows that these people will not believe him unless he tells something, so he immediately revealed a great secret.
"I didn't expect Brother Tan to have such an identity, it's really... surprising!"
The young man in brocade clothes was startled for a moment, and then he spoke out. When he said the word "accident", a hint of envy could not help but flash across his eyes.
The so-called Golden Wind Country is a neighboring country to the northeast of Xuanyang Country, and its national power is somewhat stronger than Xuanyang Country.
The King of the Golden Wind is even more of a rare martial artist in a hundred years. It is said that he has annexed a small country in the north.
Among them, the prime minister of the Jinfeng Kingdom is also famous, and it is this monarch, minister and envoy that makes the Jinfeng Kingdom flourish. It is said that even the Daxuan Dynasty attaches great importance to the Jinfeng Kingdom.
It's just that they in the past didn't know that the Tan family still had this important relationship. Since Tan Xiao's mother's elder brother is the direct son of the prime minister of Jinfeng country, doesn't it mean that he himself is the direct grandson of the prime minister of Jinfeng country?
For such a powerful way out, it would be a lie to say that he doesn't envy him. Even if Zhendong Prince's Mansion really wants to settle accounts, as long as this relationship is removed, even Lu Mingyang must be a little jealous, right?
After all, the king and ministers of Jinfeng Kingdom are very ambitious. In the past few years, Chen Bing on the northeast border of Xuanyang Kingdom has the intention of invading. This is a huge threat to Xuanyang Kingdom.
"Hehe, I, Jinfeng, have coveted Xuanyang for a long time. Now that Xuanyang is in chaos, it is a good time. If this can happen, then Lu Mingyang will be in a mess. When the time comes, my Jinfeng army will drive straight in, little Xuanyang, It's just around the corner!"
After Tan Xiao revealed his identity, he seemed a little excited, and he no longer regarded himself as a citizen of Xuanyang. When talking about the Golden Wind Country, he always said "what about my Golden Wind", with a sense of superiority.
And what he said is indeed the truth, if the former Xuanyang country gave Jinfeng country no opportunity to take advantage of it, then the current Xuanyang country is taking the initiative to give the opportunity to Jinfeng country.
Originally, Jinfeng Nation was eyeing Xuanyang Nation covetously. Now that Xuanyang Nation is in chaos, Jinfeng Nation suppresses it with the momentum of thunder, and the possibility of success is very high.
In Tan Xiao's view, Zhendong King Lu Mingyang is now Xuanyang Kingdom's Dinghai God, and once he kills his second son Lu Xun, it will definitely make this tiger heartbroken, and this is his real purpose.
"Everyone, let me guarantee that if this happens, you are all heroes of my Golden Wind Nation. When the time comes, you will be rewarded for your merits, and you will not be treated badly!"
Tan Xiao talked eloquently, and heard him bewitchingly: "Besides, what you all paid is just a little bit of face. I will do the killing, so why not do it?"
After the words fell, Tan Xiao swept his face around with a smile, but there was a sneer in the depths of his eyes.
He wasn't worried at all that these people would leak the news, and killing a few people would be a deterrent.
"This matter, my Wu family did it!"
After a moment of silence, the young man in brocade clothes hit his left palm with his right fist, and then the young man in gray also nodded slightly.
At this time, if anyone shakes his head and refuses, he may not be able to get out of this secret room.
"Brother Tan, we entrust our wealth and life to you, don't let us down!"
One of the older figures spoke solemnly, but he also knew that he had no way out. The reason why he said such words was just to make Tan Xiao make a promise.
"Don't worry, as long as the second son dares to come to Tianxiang Pavilion, he will be taught whether he will come or not!"
Tan Xiao was full of smiles, he was quite satisfied with such a result, thinking that after making such a great contribution to Jinfengguo, the Tan family would inevitably rise, so he was very complacent.
"How to get Lu Xun to take the bait is the key, how about this..."
The young man in Jinyi surnamed Wu also began to make suggestions. To be honest, even Tan Xiao was not absolutely sure that Lu Xun could go to Tianxiang Pavilion.
If the other party keeps retreating to the Zhendong Palace, no matter how well-planned they are, it will be useless.
…………
Tianyang City, Zhendong Palace!
After a few days of rest, the Zhendong Palace is not as overgrown with weeds as before. Although it is still a lot less angry, it has regained some of its former glory.
"Pingpao, general, haha, grandfather, you lost again!"
In front of a majestic hall, there was a sound of childish laughter, and Lu Linger danced triumphantly, making Lu Mingyang, the king of Zhendong opposite, a little helpless and a little relieved.
His precious granddaughter rarely laughed like this before, and seeing the smile on the other party's face, he couldn't help feeling relieved.
As for losing a few games, what's the big deal?
"Hey, Ling'er, your chess skills are getting better and better. You have won a game or two before, but I'm afraid you will have no chance in the future!"
Lu Mingyang stood up pretending to be melancholy, the words that came out of his mouth made Lu Linger's small face wrinkle, thinking in his heart whether to let his grandfather do it?
"How about... let me try?"
Just when Lu Ling'er was about to say something, Lu Zheng, the elder son who had been watching the flowers before, came here at some point, and spoke suddenly, which made Lu Mingyang, grandparent and grandson slightly startled.
Ever since Lu Zheng instructed Lu Mingyang last time, his state was a bit special, and he was not as taciturn as before, and sometimes he could even speak a few words with the princess.
However, he had never voluntarily asked to play chess like this, of course Lu Mingyang would not refuse, but Lu Linger on the opposite side showed a bitter face.
"Daddy, you have to let me order!"
Lu Ling'er has learned how to play chess from Lu Zheng. Don't look at her father as a fool, but her chess skills are among the best in the Zhendong Palace, and even Lu Xun may not be an opponent.
"There are no fathers and sons in the chess game!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Lu Linger finished speaking, Lu Zheng answered the sentence seriously, making Lu Mingyang next to him look helpless.
His precious son, before he was crazy, had a serious temper, and he was two extremes with Lu Xun.
Now that the hysteria is gradually improving, this serious state seems to be getting worse, and even his own daughter has no intention of giving in.
"Hmph, I don't believe it anymore, Daddy is really much better than me!"
Lu Linger's childish nature was also aroused at this moment with a sense of arrogance. She quickly set up the chessboard and wanted to show it in front of her grandparents. At this moment, her face was extremely calm.
"Hey, big brother is trying to bully Ling'er, but it's a bit invincible!"
Just when Lu Ling'er was waiting in full force, a soft laugh suddenly came, which attracted the eyes of several people, and their faces were different after seeing it.
"Second uncle!"
Seeing this, Lu Linger jumped up excitedly. To be honest, she was not too sure about her father, but if the second uncle could help her, that would be another story.
"Stinky boy!"
Lu Mingyang was still a bit brooding about what happened in the Hall of Supreme Harmony that day. Although Lu Mingshan was buried now, he was cut in two by Lu Xun after all, and that was his biological elder brother.
However, Lu Mingyang already knew that Lu Mingshan was already dead, and Lu Xun also had his own thoughts. After a few days, his anger gradually subsided. It was impossible for him to vomit with his son for the rest of his life.
"On the chessboard, everyone depends on their ability, there is no bullying!"
Lu Zheng still answered Lu Xun's words in a serious manner, leaving several people speechless.
That's your daughter, a little girl who is not yet eight years old, so what's the matter with letting it go?
"Ling'er, play hard, second uncle will help you avenge you if you lose!"
Lu Xun was speechless for a moment, then waved his fist at Lu Linger, who didn't know that he thought he was Lu Linger's biological father, which also made the latter feel infinite confidence.
The father and son fought on the chessboard, while Lu Xun's eyes turned to the hall next to him, and he murmured, "This hall..."
"Come in with me!"
Before Lu Xun could finish speaking, Lu Mingyang interrupted aloud, and then spoke softly when he had a glance at Lu Zheng and his daughter who were playing chess and there was nothing unusual.
Lu Xun nodded slightly, and followed Lu Mingyang into the main hall. The princess at the back hesitated to speak, but in the end she didn't say anything, but turned her loving eyes to the two chess players.
Crunch!
The door behind him was gently closed, and Lu Xun raised his eyes to look inside the hall, only to see the majestic hall outside, but inside it was a mess, and there was even a hint of blood.
"More than a year ago, that Luoyou Mountain Saintess pulled out Ling'er's blood here, right?"
Lu Xun stepped forward, walked to a certain place, and looked at the few drops of blood that dripped on the ground, but were still bright. His tone seemed plain, but it was like the calm before the storm.
"As expected of the primordial divine blood, after so long, it still contains such strong blood!"
The senior brother's voice came from his mind, but it suppressed the hatred in Lu Xun's heart a bit. Until now, he didn't notice the unusualness of those few drops of blood.
Ordinary bloodstains, not to mention the past two years, will become dry and dark even in a few days. This is the process of normal blood changes.
But the few drops of blood in front of him were still as bright as the blood that just dripped on the ground.
With Lu Xun's current sensing ability, under the reminder of his senior, he can clearly sense the vitality in the blood.
It can also be seen from this that the holy girl of Luoyou Mountain who covets the blood of the primordial god so much, even depriving her own daughter of the blood, definitely has a big plan.
"Yeah, it's been almost two years, and everything seems to have happened yesterday!"
While Lu Xun was contemplating, Lu Mingyang had already come here, his tone sounded calm, but he was actually suppressing his anger.
