Chapter 3 The Twin Flowers

Trembling slightly, Lou Xiyue turned over the jade ring in her hand: "I'm not sure what this jade represents, but I think it should be related to my life experience, so I carry it with me."

Except for Phoenix and Xiangyun, the word "Ruo" is engraved on her jade ring.

The two people with the same appearance looked up at the same time, their eyes reflected each other's face, as if they had known each other for a long time, and it seemed that they had met again after a long absence, a strange emotion surged into their hearts.

The two smiled at the same time, one was gentle and graceful, the other was cold and pure.

"I'm Ban Xiyu, I live in Banzhai, Huaijiang Mansion, and I'm also the granddaughter of Ban Hua's veteran general. You are also the granddaughter of my grandfather. You are Xiruo, Ban Xiruo, my sister."

As Ban Xiyu spoke, she couldn't help holding Lou Xiyue's hand.Her eyes flickered, she was very excited.

"Xi Ruo..." Lou Xiyue murmured, "So I have this name..." Compared to her younger sister, she looked calmer.

Seeing her long-lost sister, Ban Xiyu had a lot of questions to ask: "Grandfather has sent his cronies to search everywhere, but we never found your whereabouts. ?”

"It's not too bad." Lou Xiyue also had many questions: "How did I get lost back then? Who was the enemy who took me away?"

Ban Xiyu sighed and said, "It's a long story..."

Seventeen years ago, Xuanguo and Rongguo fought for a city on the southwest border. The two sides refused to give in to each other. At that time, Ban Zhao, who was still a guerrilla general on the border, was appointed as the deputy general of Shuning, and followed the general Fu Lan to the frontier to fight against the enemy. .

But unexpectedly, Ban Zhao never came back after this trip.

The reinforcements sent by the imperial court did not arrive in time, and the soldiers led by Ban Zhao and Fu Lan were trapped in Guicheng for more than three months.In order to get out of trouble, Ban Zhao secretly sent Fu Lan and his entourage out of the city to deliver a letter.

Rongguo wanted to take Guicheng, so he sent a special agent to visit Xuanguo unannounced, and took away the infant twin girls of Ban's family, with the intention of blackmailing Ban Zhao into surrendering.

"At that time, my grandfather led troops to capture Rongguo's spies in time, and followed them all the way. But the spies had to be supported by their accomplices, and my grandfather couldn't cope with it. He was attacked by the spies. He only had time to save me, but he missed the best time to rescue my sister." Ban Xi said:
"After my sister was abducted by them, my grandfather lost her sister's news. After years of searching, I still haven't found any clues."

But Ban Zhao, who was far away in Guicheng, didn't know that his own daughter was being held hostage. Out of loyalty, he led [-] soldiers to defend Guicheng to the death.

In the end, the soldiers and people in the city ran out of food, and finally came to the point of eating bark and roots.But when the ammunition and food were exhausted, the imperial reinforcements finally arrived.

Rong Guo saw that he could not take Guicheng, so he had to retreat.

Ban Xiyu looked sad: "But the reinforcements came too late. Even though my father defended Guicheng, he was exhausted. In addition to the recurrence of old injuries, he died on the way back to Beijing within a few days. Mother was overwhelmed with grief when she heard the news , and will pass away forever in a short time.”

Lou Xiyue frowned, and asked, "Marshal Fu Lan was sent out of the city to ask for help? Didn't he bring anyone back?"

"No." Ban Xiyu shook his head and said, "I only found out later that after Marshal Fu Lan left Guicheng, he was killed by killers halfway, and his entourage was also dead."

Fu Lan was the only son under the eldest princess' knee, and he was only in his twenties when he died.His wife died in childbirth, leaving only a baby boy.When Fu Lan died in a foreign country, his child was only six years old.

The eldest princess lost her beloved son, and she loved her only grandson very much, so she asked the emperor to order her younger grandson to be a prince.

At first, the Holy Majesty refused to agree, but he couldn't stand the Princess Chang's frequent quarrels. In addition, the officials of the court jointly wrote a letter, so the Holy Majesty had to decree that Fu Guan be named King Xuanping.

After that, the Holy Majesty made another decree to marry King Xuanping to the daughter of the Ban family who was less than one year old.It is euphemistically called the Home of Compassionate Heroes, and it wants to give the daughter of the Ban family who also lost her parents a safe home.

Lou Xiyue nodded clearly: "This is the reason for your engagement with King Xuan Ping."

Ban Xiyu smiled a little forcedly: "Yeah." She changed the subject and said, "Where is my sister all these years? Since you and I have known each other, why don't you come home with me? Very happy."

Hearing this, Lou Xiyue shook her head and refused, "I can't go back."

This surprised Ban Xiyu: "Why? But there are unspeakable difficulties?"

Lou Xiyue: "I'm going to do something, it's a bit dangerous, if my identity is revealed, it will implicate you and your family."

Ban Xiyu was puzzled and said, "What is my sister going to do? Since we are a family, if you have difficulties, we should help each other."

Lou Xiyue said bluntly: "I want to kill a person, or maybe a group of people, I don't know yet. That is my enemy. He killed the adoptive mother who raised me for many years. I must take revenge. I have investigated, That person has a lot of background, and I don’t want to cause any complications until I’m fully sure about it.”

Ban Xiyu's face changed slightly: "The enemy? But..."

She wanted to smell it more clearly, but unexpectedly, there was a mess of voices outside the Temple of the City God.The two turned their heads to look, and saw the flames outside the temple:

"Officer, it's probably here. However, I can't guarantee whether the person you are looking for is here. I just saw someone coming this way. I don't know what it looks like."

"I know. You wait and don't leave, we'll talk about it after we search."

"You guys, search carefully, and you must find the thief. Also, don't hurt Miss Ban, do you understand?"

"Yes!"

……

Lou Xiyue said: "The person looking for you is here, I'll take a step first." As she spoke, she pushed open the small door leading to the backyard.

Ban Xiyu chased after her: "Sister, wait, are you really not going back with me?"

Lou Xiyue shook her head: "You were quite frightened today, go back to rest earlier. I will look for you again when I find an opportunity."

As soon as the voice fell, Lou Xiyue took advantage of the moonlight and left.

At the same time, the guards of the Ban family who came to look for Ban Xiyu also broke into the Town God's Temple with torches: "Miss Ban, miss!—"

Suddenly someone pointed to the front and shouted: "Look quickly, is that the thief who kidnapped Miss?"

"Why, is it a woman who took Miss away?"

"Let's take a look at Miss first, why don't the rest of you hurry up?!"

"and many more!--"

Everyone paused, and when they turned their heads, they saw Ban Xiyu walking out of the temple slowly.Even though she was a bit embarrassed after falling into the water, she didn't look like she had been bullied by thieves.

Ban Xiyu said lightly: "Don't chase after me, that girl didn't do anything to me. She just happened to save me, but she didn't know where Ban's residence is, so she had to send me to the Town God's Temple to rest for a while."

At this time, Qingshuang hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her: "Fortunately, Miss is safe, otherwise I will be blamed even if I die."

Ban Xiyu smiled slightly: "Please worry, everything is fine. I'm tired, let's go home first."

Qingshuang: "Yes. Hurry up and send Miss back home."
