Lu Ye was stunned and instantly understood Mu Xiaolou's good intentions.
She wanted to find a reliable shelter for Lu Ye and Nannan in Lingcheng.
But, the head of the Jackdaw Family is actually Mulan’s biological father?
This information made it difficult for Lu Ye to digest it for a while.
Mulan comes from a noble family, but her mother's surname is Mu.
It seems that Mu Xiaolou has been avoiding the Jackdaw Family.
But now, for the sake of her daughter, she is willing to reveal this long-hidden news.
That's the Jackdaw family.
Lu Ye of the Jackdaw Family heard about it when he was a child.
This is a family that is different from other aristocratic families.
The family regards the jackdaw as a totem.
They are not practicing martial arts orthodoxly either.
Instead, he is like taming animals, raising many rare and exotic animals in his family.
Like jackals, wolves, tigers and leopards, they are all there.
Moreover, the beasts tamed by them will never rebel or turn against their masters.
Therefore, despite the fact that the Jackdaw Family's personal strength is not outstanding among the families.
But with their ability to tame animals, they are quite famous within the country.
Regardless of whether they have the mentality of domesticating pets or those who have the mentality of seeking help, they all respect this jackdaw family.
So in terms of fame, the Jackdaw family is more famous than the Nanjin Li family.
Even if the Jackdaw Family has connections all over the world, even if the Nanban Li family is in front of the Jackdaw Family, they must be polite and not show any disrespect.
Lu Ye looked at Mu Xiaolou with a wry smile.
This woman has found a very strange backer for herself.
But he also knew that since Mu Xiaolou begged him to take Mulan to meet the head of the Jackdaw Family and then recognize him.
Then this matter is definitely not that easy.
Putting aside the complicated relationship between Mulan and her mother, can she accept such a father she has never met?
The most important thing is that the Jackdaw Family is a famous family.
In ordinary aristocratic families, struggles for power and profit are common.
Now that a daughter of the head of the family suddenly appears, the other children must be a thorn in Mulan's side.
Mu Xiaolou seemed to have seen through Lu Ye's bitter smile, and smiled slowly: "Young Master, to be honest with you, even if you and Mulan have no plans to go to Lingcheng, I will let Mulan go there in the near future.
Over there.”
"Why?"
Lu Ye asked curiously.
If this is the case, then my guess just now is wrong.
"Because, that man's life is short."
When Mulan said this, she smiled desolately, her smile full of bitterness.
"A year ago, that man participated in a war with other members of the aristocratic family to encircle and suppress a certain person. In that war, all the sect leaders were poisoned very viciously, and they only had one year to live.
Now, one year is almost here, and this poison should have taken effect."
Mulan said bitterly.
"a year ago?
Who is it that can allow the heads of multiple aristocratic families to join forces to encircle and suppress him?
And not only did the sect leaders not win, but they were poisoned?
Also, is there no cure for this poison?"
Lu Ye's face was filled with shock.
To be able to become the head of an aristocratic family in this world, one must be at least a master in the middle stage of Huajin or above.
Several masters surrounded and suppressed one person, but all of them came back defeated. You can imagine how terrifying the person they surrounded and suppressed was.
"I don't know the specifics, maybe you will know it in the future.
After all, a mountain of martial arts is only so big, and the top of the mountain is just a tiny bit.
Young Master, you are destined to reach the top of the mountain, so sooner or later you will meet this person on your way to the top."
Mu Xiaolou said with a smile.
Lu Ye actually had some appreciation for Mu Xiaolou.
Although this woman was devoted to her daughter, she even went so far as to be submissive.
But her mind and vision are very broad.
What he saw was beyond comparison with Mulan.
"I don't know much about the poison in their bodies, but there is no solution.
Otherwise, with their status as heads of several aristocratic families, what kind of miracle doctor would not be able to be hired?
Now, one year is almost here.
I don’t want that man to die without knowing that he still has a poor daughter in this world.”
Mu Xiaolou suddenly choked up and said.
Lu Ye nodded solemnly this time, "Okay, I promise you, I will take Mulan to the Jackdaw Family."
On the one hand, Lu Ye sympathized with Mu Xiaolou for his deep love and good intentions, but on the other hand, he also had his own considerations.
If this trip goes well, it will be a great thing for Lu Ye to make good friends with the Jackdaw Family.
To go to Jackdaw Family, you have to go to Nanban Li Family in advance.
"Thank you, young master."
Mu Xiaolou said to Lu Ye with tears in his eyes.
At this time, footsteps were heard at the door. Mu Xiaolou quickly wiped the tears from his eyes and pretended to be nonchalant.
They knew Mulan was back.
Mulan stepped through the door and immediately saw Mu Xiaolou's still red eyes.
A complicated light flashed in her eyes, but it disappeared immediately.
She said coldly: "I'm going to cook. Young Master, please help me."
This is a very reasonable thing to say.
Mu Xiaolou wanted to stop him, but Lu Ye smiled slightly and said, "Okay, it's been a long time since I've had home-cooked food."
She gave Mu Xiaolou a reassuring look and followed Mulan out.
Mu Xiaolou was left alone, staring blankly at the door.
After Mulan returned home, she seemed to be a changed person.
She became taciturn.
Even when I was alone with Lu Ye, there was no such noise as before.
The two of them finished the meal without saying a word.
The three of them ate around the table, and it was extremely embarrassing.
Mu Xiaolou had a bad appetite and couldn't eat anymore after only a few bites.
She excused herself first and went back to her room to rest.
After Lu Ye took a few bites, he returned to a clean room.
However, in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"who?"
Lu Ye asked.
But I asked a bit knowingly.
"Come out and have a drink with me."
Mulan's clear voice came from outside the door.
Lu Ye opened the door.
That's right, Mulan is standing at the door.
She was wearing thin pajamas and carrying a box of wine in her hand.
When Mulan saw Lu Ye coming out, she stopped talking, turned around and walked forward.
He sat on a stone chair in the small courtyard.
Lu Ye also walked over and slowly sat down.
Mulan opened a bottle of wine for Lu Ye, and then drank it herself, not caring whether Lu Ye drank or not.
Lu Ye knew that Mulan had something on his mind.
He also drank with Mulan.
After taking two bottles, Mulan's face turned red.
It seemed that the grievances in my stomach were about to come out.
She suddenly stared directly at Lu Ye and asked, "What did my mother say to you?"
