When Xie Yan walked out of the study, there was already a steward of Dingyang Hou Mansion waiting outside the door. The steward did not say much and respectfully led Xie Yan to where Shang Yue and Luo Junyao were.
Seeing Xie Yan approaching, Luo Junyao, who was fighting with someone, dodged and rushed towards Xie Yan, "Are you done talking to Marquis Dingyang?"
Xie Yan nodded, reached out to hold her slender waist, and looked up ahead.
There were several men and women standing next to Shang Yue who were obviously dressed as people from the world. Luo Junyao had just been fighting with one of the women. Although these people were dressed in different clothes, the swords in their hands were exactly the same. They were obviously forged from the same furnace.
from.
The identities of these people are naturally self-evident. They are obviously people from Wenjian Pavilion. Xie Yan glanced at them lightly and found that they were indeed masters with extraordinary skills.
When these people noticed Xie Yan's gaze, their expressions immediately became more vigilant. For a master like Xie Yan, no matter who he was, he would inevitably feel pressure.
"Your Highness." Shang Yue came over and bowed his hands in greeting to Xie Yan. He did not ask what Xie Yan had talked about with his father.
Xie Yan said: "Shao Yao likes to make trouble and is annoying the prince."
Luo Junyao glared at him displeasedly, but Shang Yue said with a smile: "My lord, you are serious. The princess is very strong in martial arts, and she is worthy of her reputation as a general's tiger girl." Luo Junyao felt a little embarrassed by the praise, "The prince of Shang is so complimentary.
I can't beat you."
She really couldn't beat Shang Yue, and she couldn't beat two of the people she just fought against. This shows that Wenjian Pavilion's reputation is indeed not false.
Shang Yue shook his head and said: "My senior brothers and sisters have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and their internal strength is much better than that of the princess. If the family teacher sees the princess, he will definitely regret that he cannot take the princess into his sect." With Shang Yue's cultivation, it is natural.
It can be seen that Luo Junyao has little internal strength, but he can defeat the elite disciples of Wenjian Pavilion with just his moves. There are only two people she can't beat. Their strength is really far apart. The two sides are not fighting to the death, and they have not used their full strength.
.
You must know that the Princess Regent is only sixteen or seventeen years old now. Who would not praise her if she met her?
Luo Jun shook her head. She knew how much she was capable of, but she didn't think she really had any extraordinary talent or understanding.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two of them said goodbye to Shang Yue. Shang Yue personally sent the two of them to the door. Shang Yue looked at the two of them and said solemnly: "The old business of the merchant, please let me go there in person." Xie Yan sided.
First looked at Shang Yue. Shang Yue was obviously aware of the past events, "I thought that Marquis Dingyang would not inform the crown prince of these things."
Shang Yue smiled and said: "Some things can always be found if you want to check them."
"The Prince of Shang should not come back." Xie Yan said: "The Marquis of Dingyang must have had some considerations when he sent the Prince of Shang to Wenjian Pavilion to practice martial arts."
Shang Yue shook his head and said: "There are some things that we cannot get rid of no matter what. Shang cannot, and neither can the regent. Shang thanked the prince for not taking action against my father today, and hopes... that he will not fight with the prince in the future."
"
Neither of them said anything, Xie Yan said goodbye and pulled Luo Jun onto the carriage.
Shang Yue stood on the side of the road and watched the carriage go away before turning around and walking into the Hou Mansion.
Sitting on the carriage, Luo Junyao looked at Xie Yan, whose eyebrows were slightly furrowed and his expression was obviously serious, "What did Marquis Dingyang say to you?"
Xie Yan sighed lightly, shook his head and said, "We'll talk about it when we get back."
Luo Junyao was not in a hurry to ask, and just nodded.
Returning to the Regent's Palace, Xie Yan told Luo Junyao the contents of his conversation with Marquis Dingyang. After listening, Luo Junyao sat in a spacious chair and did not speak for a long time.
Although they had guessed something before, listening to the person involved telling the inside story of what happened back then still made people feel heavy in their hearts and breathless.
It is no wonder that Emperor Gaozu and the Empress Dowager must protect the Dingyanghou Mansion. To be honest, it can be said that the Dingyang Mansion did not take any advantage in that matter, and the old Dingyanghou also died a few years later. Now this
As Marquis of Dingyang, he would have been a generation of talents if it hadn't been for that incident. At his current age, he should be holding great power, but he has wasted half his life in obscurity since he was in his twenties.
Even the eldest son was sent to the Jianghu from an early age, and his relatives were not allowed to be reunited.
Do you really not regret it? I am afraid no one knows except Dingyang Hou himself.
But did the Yao family deserve to be exterminated back then? The rich family was stinking of wine and meat, and people were freezing to death on the road. This scene is really hateful when you think about it, and it is enough to make any kind-hearted person become angry, but does this mean that the Yao family
Should the whole family be exterminated and no chickens or dogs left?
Perhaps it can be said that even if the Marquis of Dingyang did not participate, the Yao family would not be able to escape the destruction of the family. However, the Marquis of Dingyang did participate.
No one can tell who is right and wrong among them.
Luo Junyao sighed softly and looked up at Xie Yan. Xie Yan looked solemn and stretched out his hand to take Luo Junyao into his arms, as if he wanted to draw a little bit of warmth from her body.
"What are you going to do?" Luo Junyao asked softly.
Xie Yan said: "I don't know."
Luo Jun shook his head once and heard a trace of confusion and uncertainty in Xie Yan's voice. He obviously felt that he really didn't know what to do.
But no matter what he thinks, this matter must have an ending.
The chamberlain in the palace came to report that the Empress Dowager had summoned Her Highness the Regent.
Xie Yan had no choice but to go out and enter the palace first. Luo Junyao thought about it in his heart, but still felt a little worried and got up and went out to Luo's house.
Luo Yun was still asleep, and Qin Yao'er went to prepare the medicine. Doctor Xue also came to see him, and the conclusion he came to was the same as Qin Yao'er's. It was obvious that Yao Zhong did not lie to them. He was determined to let them go.
After eating, Luo Yun fell into a deep sleep for ten days and missed the chaos in the Yonghuang City.
Mrs. Luo woke up. As soon as she woke up, she staggered to Luo Yun's yard and burst into tears. It was not easy for Su Shi and Luo Jinyan to persuade her to go back. When Luo Junyao came back, Luo Jinyan had just finished dealing with Mrs. Luo's yard.
's servants.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Three months ago, several girls came into my grandmother's yard. The girl serving tea this time was one of them. She put medicine in my father's tea."
Luo Jinyan said in a deep voice.
Luo Junyao frowned slightly, "Three months?"
Luo Jinyan nodded and said, "That's right. That person was already planning this three months ago." Luo Jinyan looked at his sister and asked, "What is the relationship between the person who drugged his father and the Regent's Palace?"
Luo Jun shook his eyebrows and suddenly raised his head to look at Luo Jinyan. Luo Jinxing, who was also sitting on the side, also raised his head in shock, "Brother, what are you talking about?"
Luo Jinyan said: "After you left, you should have gone to see that person, right? In the west of the city? Then you went to Dingyanghou Mansion. The recent chaos in Shangyonghuang City has something to do with that person and Dingyanghou Mansion.
?”
Luo Junyao sighed. Xie Yan also said that this matter could not be hidden from Luo Jinyan. Of course, she did not want to hide it from her eldest brother. After considering the words, she still told everything about the Yao family and the Dingyang Hou Mansion.
After hearing what she said, not only Luo Jinxing but also Luo Jinyan were speechless for a while. Luo Junyao could understand their reactions very well, wasn't she herself speechless for a while?
After a long time, Luo Jinxing slowly said: "There is so much inside story about the Yao family being exterminated?"
Luo Junyao smiled bitterly, "The Yao family is a big family in Xinzhou after all. How could ordinary bandits and bandits wipe them out so easily?"
Luo Jinxing looked at Luo Jinyan who was silent and couldn't help but said: "Brother, this matter..." His mind was also a little confused. It was natural for the Yao family to want revenge, but if he was asked to say that Marquis Dingyang deserved death.
He deserved to be cut to pieces by a thousand knives, but he really couldn't say that.
The Yao family has already settled down after annihilating their family. The hatred for killing their father is irreconcilable, let alone the hatred for annihilating the entire family? There is absolutely no room for change.
But just watching Yao Zhong kill Dingyang Hou...
"Brother..." Luo Jinxing looked at Luo Jinyan for help. Although he had experienced the hardships of the battlefield, thinking about such complicated matters was really beyond his ability.
Luo Jinyan said in a deep voice: "Actually, the prince is right."
"What?" Luo Junyao and Luo Jinxing asked in unison.
Luo Jinyan said: "Kill the Marquis of Dingyang."
"But brother..." Luo Jinxing frowned and said with a bitter face, "Dingyang Marquis also wanted to..."
Luo Jinyan interrupted him, "What's the difference? The murderer Renheng killed him. Since the old Shanghou and Dingyanghou father and son made this decision, they must have thought that such a day would come, otherwise the Dingyanghou Mansion would not be able to survive these years.
He would be so low-key, let alone send Shang Yue to be a disciple of someone in the world."
Luo Jinxing said: "But..." However, Luo Jinxing did not say anything for a long time. He also knew that it would be fine if the Yao family really had no descendants. Since there are still people in the Yao family alive, the blood of the family cannot be in vain.
flow.
Even if Luo Jinxing felt that Marquis Shang's decision was not selfish but to save the people of Qinan, he could not say that the Yao family should not take revenge.
Luo Jinyan said: "All living beings are destined, who should die for whom? Who should decide who should die for whom? Since the Marquis of Shang decided to be the one to make the decision, all the karmic hatred will naturally fall on him."
Luo Jinxing still felt depressed. Luo Jin glanced at him and said seriously: "You can also understand that it is not easy to be a saint. If one day, it is your turn to make such a choice, first think about whether you can bear it.
You deserve the consequences."
"Shouldn't Shang Hou save people back then?" He believed that Shang Hou had indeed tried his best at that time.
Luo Jinyan said: "This is a personal choice. Not everyone has the courage to make a decision. Since Shang Hou chose it, he thinks he should be saved. Outsiders are not qualified to comment on whether he should be saved."
"Brother, what about you?" Luo Jinxing couldn't help but ask, "If you encounter such a thing, what would you choose?"
Luo Jinyan was silent for a long time, then shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Luo Junyao did not participate in the discussion of this issue. She had heard of many similar eternal problems before, but there would never be a correct answer no matter which one they chose.
Luo Junyao said softly: "Brother, just the life of Marquis Dingyang may not be enough." Back then, those aristocratic families were able to kill Marquis Shang, and Yao Zhong was able to send Qian Rizui into Luo Yun's mouth. If he just wanted to kill Marquis Dingyang, I'm afraid Dingyang Marquis would be killed.
The grass on Yanghou's grave is now taller than a person.
Luo Jinyan's eyes turned cold, "And the King Mu and his wife, as well as those who were involved in the Yao family's affairs back then?"
Luo Junyao said: "If this is the case, it can be considered the best result."
Looking at the looks the two brothers were looking at, Luo Jun said: "The Regent's Palace has always had many files on the Yao family's extermination case. There are also files on aristocratic families from all over the country and local files in Xinzhou. I went to see them once before I went out to participate in the Yao family's case.
The two local families in Shinshu that were involved in the Genocide became extinct a few years after the Genocide, and both became extinct one after another in the past two years."
"Extinction?"
Luo Junyao nodded and said: "Due to the internal power struggle within the family, the family was drugged by a second son who failed to seize power. There were more than fifty members of the family, and even the infant children were burned cleanly.
Another family took over the Yao family's shipping business. They encountered pirates and a shipwreck when they went to sea. Almost all the young men and women in the family died in the sea. As a result, the family fell into decline and was heavily in debt. In the end, the head of the family committed suicide and the women and children in the family were sold into slavery and prostitution.
, I will not die well."
"There is also a local martial arts sect in Shinshu, which has been annexed by other gangs. All the leaders of the gangs who had some status have died without their bodies intact."
Originally, we didn't know that these people were related to the Yao family's murder case, and naturally no one associated it with the Yao family. When the world is set, many families or forces will always be destroyed.
The so-called aristocratic clans are also left behind after generations of great waves.
But after listening to the inner story told by Marquis Dingyang, looking back now makes people shudder.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "So, he wants to wipe out all these families?" Luo Jinxing said.
Luo Junyao didn't speak, and Luo Jinyan was silent, but Luo Jinxing could see the real answer on their faces.
Luo Jinxing couldn't help but take a breath. No wonder Yao Zhong drugged his father. With his father's character, he would try his best to prevent this from happening.
Luo Jinyan frowned and said, "The Empress Dowager summoned the prince to the palace?"
Luo Jun shook his head.
Luo Jinyan sighed and said: "Then let's wait until the prince comes out of the palace to make a decision. Please do..."
"Brother, tell me." Luo Jinxing said seriously.
Luo Jinyan said: "Secretly order the Xuanjia Army to enter the city, and then set up defenses according to the map I gave you."
Luo Jinxing frowned, "Brother, the Xuanjia Army entered the city privately, I'm afraid..."
Luo Jinyan said: "Don't worry, once the prince comes out of the palace, it won't be considered as entering the city privately."
Luo Jinxing looked at Luo Junyao and touched his nose, "That's right." His brother-in-law was the regent, and it was not a matter of just one sentence to issue an edict allowing Xuanjia's army to enter the city.
"Brother, who should we help?" Luo Jinxing asked.
Luo Jinyan said: "Don't help anyone. The mission of the Xuanjia Army is to assist the Wuwei Army in maintaining stability in Shangyong. It is not to act chivalrously and seek revenge."
"Oh." Luo Jinxing was a little disappointed, but also breathed a sigh of relief.
If he really had to choose who to help, he wouldn't know how to choose.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
I experienced a day trip to the hospital yesterday. I was so tired from the public hospital. I went there at 8 a.m. and ran around for a bunch of tests. I went home with a bunch of medicine in the afternoon. At the same time, it triggered some anxiety for a person who lives alone.
Now I can still walk around on my own, but what should I do if I get older or sicker and have difficulty moving?
I still feel uncomfortable after taking medicine several times. I hope it will be better within three days~
