The most outstanding genius of the younger generation of the Xiahou family, he participated in the Qianlong War at the age of twenty-five and became the top seventy-two on the Qianlong Ranking. In terms of talent, he was even better than Long Yin.
After all, Long Yin was twenty-eight years old when he broke into the Qianlong Ranking, three years older than her.
That's why.
Xiahou Mulan not only had a very high status in the Xiahou family, but even in the imperial capital, Xiahou Mulan was an absolute figure among the younger generation, not comparable to Xiahou Yan.
Xiahou Yan naturally understood what his father meant when he asked him to call Xiahou Mulan.
That's why it's unbelievable.
Is it possible that his sister, the jewel of the Xiahou family, should be asked to accompany this bastard puppet?
At this time, Xiahou Mulan got on the beast carriage and stood in the large carriage. She glanced at Long Xiaoshan, whose face was covered with blood. There was a slight shock in her eyes, but soon she looked at Xia Houchen, her face revealed.
doubt.
Xia Houchen directly communicated with his spiritual thoughts.
Long Xiaoshan's replacement of Long Yin is an absolute secret. The fewer people know about it, the better. Therefore, even the most core people in the Xiahou family know about it, and most people don't know.
Xiahou Mulan also heard about this for the first time.
Naturally, she had met the Crown Prince Long Yin before.
Even the Xiahou family had plans to marry her to Long Yin.
However, Xiahou Mulan refused, and with Xiahou Mulan's talent, the matter was not forced, and it was settled in the end.
However, she did not expect that Long Yin and his father would secretly carry out such a bold plan. In order to conceal the sudden change in Long Yin's bloodline, they found a substitute.
The person in front of me is Long Yin's puppet.
At first glance, she didn't recognize any difference between the two.
But this is normal. With my father's meticulousness, how could he randomly find a substitute who would reveal his flaws?
But no matter how careful he is, this move is still too bold.
This would let the imperial clan know that not only Long Yin would be doomed, but the Xiahou family would also be doomed.
"Father, are you sure you want to do this?" Xiahou Mulan took a deep breath, and her calm temperament was a little shaken at this time.
After all, the impact of this incident was too great.
Xia Houchen said: "The arrow is on the string and we have to shoot it. The prince's situation cannot be delayed. Once someone discovers that his bloodline conflict has changed, he will definitely be purged by the imperial clan and lose everything."
"But..." Xiahou Mulan glanced at Long Xiaoshan, but there were some words she didn't say.
Maybe Long Yin will be purged.
But the Xiahou family has reached its current status, which is much better than before Xiahou Wei married Long Xiang.
Even if Long Yin was kicked out of the imperial clan, the Xiahou family would not be able to recover from the fall. Why bother being tied to the same boat as Long Yin?
It can be said that she is smart as ice and snow.
Before these words could be spoken, he stopped.
She secretly sighed. Now that the Xiahou family has made a decision, they will definitely not stop. Although she pays little attention to family affairs and concentrates on cultivation, it does not mean that she does not understand the family's ambitions.
"Mulan, this son is very important, so we must find a trustworthy person to keep an eye on him and search the family. Only you are the one whom my father trusts the most. Therefore, this matter is entrusted to you. You must not go out on business.
Xia Houchen said solemnly.
"I?"
Xiahou Mulan frowned: "Father, why are there so many people in the family looking for me? You know I never care about these things. What's more, the Battle of Qianlong will start soon. I am preparing for the battle with all my strength. How can I have so much time?
"
The corners of Xia Houchen's mouth twitched, and he felt helpless as he recounted what had just happened.
"Mulan, I don't want to trouble you, but I don't worry about the others. And the fewer people know about this, the better. Your brother is definitely dying. Only you can help me as a father. I beg you as a father.
, you don’t want to see the Xiahou family doomed, right?”
Xiahou Mulan lowered her eyes and pondered expressionlessly. After a while, she raised her head and said, "Okay, but let me do this until the Qianlong Battle. After the Qianlong Battle, I will go out to travel around the mainland to find a breakthrough.
The opportunity of a true immortal cannot remain here any longer."
Seeing Xiahou Mulan agree, Xia Houchen breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I will make other arrangements when the time comes."
The conversations between the two were all transmitted through spiritual thoughts.
So Long Xiaoshan couldn't hear it.
However, he made a rough guess.
After Xia Houchen and Xiahou Mulan finished their discussion, they turned to look at Long Xiaoshan, with murderous intent still in their eyes. Although Long Xiaoshan's reprimand just now was not unreasonable, Xia Houchen was also a little upset when he thought of Long Xiaoshan's identity.
But after all, he is an extraordinary person, not comparable to a junior like Xia Houyan.
In a blink of an eye, he put away all his emotions and said calmly: "Your Highness, you are right. Xia Houyan was rude and disrespectful. I asked him to shut up and think about it. From today on, Mulan will be your companion and go to the academy with you.
"
Although Long Xiaoshan's face was covered with blood, his injuries had long since healed. He half-leaned on a piece of tiger fur with a leisurely expression, his eyes swept over Xiahou Mulan's body, and he showed a faint smile: "This is not bad, even as a vase.
, at least it’s more eye-catching than that idiot.”
Click!
Although the city was deep enough, Xia Houchen couldn't help but clenched his fist.
I wish I could slap this guy with a slap in the face to death.
On the other hand, Xiahou Mulan, who was on the side, had a calm face and had no reaction at all to Long Xiaoshan's words.
The beast cart flew smoothly and quickly on the road.
After some tea time, Qianlong Academy arrived.
Xiahou Mulan said to Xiahou Chen: "Father, leave it to me."
Xia Houchen smiled and nodded. He was very reassured about this daughter. She had been his greatest pride since she was a child. He looked at Long Xiaoshan indifferently and said, "Okay, Your Highness, it's time to get out of the car."
Long Xiaoshan had already tidied up his appearance and washed away the blood on his face. He laughed, stood up, waved his sleeves, and got out of the car.
Xiahou Mulan followed closely and got out of the beast cart.
Long Xiaoshan stood at the gate of the grand academy. He had followed Long Yin here several times as a subordinate and was familiar with the environment, so he was no stranger to this place. However, this was the first time he came here as Long Yin.
He smiled faintly and walked towards the academy.
Xiahou Mulan was not far behind him. She was also practicing in the academy, where countless elites from the imperial capital and even within the empire gathered.
Because the academy does not prohibit people from other forces from joining, most of the geniuses will come to the academy to further their studies after they have achieved success in cultivation. Firstly, the academy has indeed gathered the best teachers and various resources in the empire.
Secondly, only competition can make people grow.
A wolf who grew up in a kennel will never be able to defeat a dog who grew up in a wolf den.
Cultivation talent is important, but the environment is equally important.
The academy brings together talents from all over the world. Here, competition is extremely fierce, which is also what attracts many talents to gather here.
