"So, the Third Prince's subordinates have been attacked and killed by unknown persons one after another over the years. Is it you who is doing it secretly?"
Jia Lian cast a dull look at the elder Quan who asked the question, but did not answer his question, but said:
"Last night Xia Zhou showed his Xiantian realm cultivation. There will be a lot of relatives and friends coming to visit next time. I gave Xia Zhou the status of 'the old man's personal disciple' before. You can just watch and deal with the other ancestors.
, Xia Zhou will also be staying in the mansion recently, please feel free to say hello if you need anything."
When the old lady heard her precious grandson's order in person, Jia Xiazhou did not show any dissatisfaction. She was shocked and at the same time, a feeling of excitement similar to the one she felt when she first took over the power of the back house of Rongguo Mansion also surged into her heart.
This is a Xiantian realm master!
At the same time, the old lady is also a person who has been famous for most of her life. It is said that people are old and smart, and ghosts are old. From Jia Xiazhou's attitude, we can roughly guess that Jia Lian's strength is far more than just Jia Xiazhou.
At this time, she finally let go of her worries about Jia Lian. With such strength, there is no problem in protecting herself no matter what. If the Rongguo Mansion can be preserved, she can continue to enjoy the glory and wealth. In this case, there is no need to worry!
Now the old lady looked at Jia Lian with an even more kind look.
"I don't want to show up yet. I'll leave the outside matters to the old lady and the elders.
Well... I'm a little hungry. I'm going to see if Dad and Aunt Shu are making anything delicious, so I won't accompany you.
Also, Aunt Min is pregnant, so we have to prepare some gifts for her, otherwise we will complain again that no one in our family cares about her!"
Jia Xiazhou was left behind to accompany these elders to discuss the Jia family's external affairs in the capital. Jia Lian took Miss Zhiyu out leisurely and headed east across the courtyard.
…
Sure enough, not long after noon, Rongguo Mansion was invaded by relatives and friends from all walks of life. Rongguo Mansion, which had been deserted for more than five years, suddenly seemed to become popular again.
Even Jia She, who was nominally included, also had many contemporaries and old friends from the four princes and eight princes' families who came to gather together.
Jia Lian originally thought that Cheap Daddy would be able to hide away and be quiet for a while, but he found that he valued Jia She's "forbidden" sign too much.
In the end, he could only hide in Aunt Shu's side yard with peace of mind. He had someone bring a deck chair and place it under the big tree. He picked up the little Yingchun and put it in his arms. The brother and sister swayed slightly in the comfort of the breeze.
Sleeping soundly on the recliner...
The deer Xiaobai, whose whole body was covered in snow-white fur dotted with emerald green stripes, stretched out her slender neck to get close to them, gently kissed the pink cheeks of the little Yingchun lying in Jia Lian's arms, and then took a brisk little step and walked for a while.
The faint emerald light jumped into the big tree nearby and disappeared.
Aunt Shu saw the beautiful scene from a distance at the door of the house, especially the peaceful little face of her daughter who was sleeping quietly in Jia Lian's arms. She felt that her heart was about to melt at this moment.
…
As night falls, in the center of Shenjing City, and at the southeast corner of the Forbidden City, there is a huge mansion. This is a royal palace covering an area of nearly two hundred acres, which is also the mansion of the current third prince Yang Yong, who is titled Prince Rui.
Yang Yong is in his thirties or forties and looks to be of the same age as Jia She, but his face looks a few years older than Jia She.
The dark eyes and cold expression make Yang Yong look majestic and indifferent, with a high nose, a blue python pattern robe, a purple gold crown on his head, and a handful in his hand.
A white folding fan, a golden belt around the waist, a pair of black boots on the legs, each with a piece of jade the size of an egg.
Kneeling in front of Yang Yong was a middle-aged man dressed as a farmer. Judging from their expressions, it was obvious that they had encountered some serious situation that was difficult to deal with.
"So, it has been a whole day since last night, and you have only found out this little thing? What does it mean that the 'Shadow Demon' is suspected to be related to Rongguo Mansion? What does it mean that Rongguo Mansion may be hiding a Taoist master in the realm of refining gods and nourishing health?
?
Is it that you use this suspected and possible information to take away 300,000 taels of silver every year from my king’s treasury?”
"Your Highness, the 'Shadow Demon' has been killing us in recent years. As long as the people below show any trace of contact with the palace, the Shadow Demon will find them within three days. Even officials below the fifth rank
, as long as anyone who helped deal with the bad things in the mansion was assassinated one by one, the secret guards of today are no longer what they used to be!
The secret guards no longer dare to recruit new people in their own name, and even the former staff can only be retained by spending money again and again."
"..."
"The lonely Prince Daqing, your Majesty's third son, was actually forced to this point by a mouse hiding in the gutter and not daring to show his face?"
"My incompetence has caused His Highness to be humiliated. I should wait... Your Highness, be careful!"
…
But at some point, the wave of shadows as huge as the sky turned into reality had completely enveloped the main palace in the hinterland of Prince Rui's Mansion without any sound!
"Hey! There is actually a pseudo-innate here, His Royal Highness Prince Rui has a lot of background!"
"Huh? Are you the 'Shadow Demon'? You are so brave, you dare to cause trouble at the feet of the Emperor!"
"You traitor! Next to this place is the palace. You are really brave!"
Seeing the iconic power of shadow described in this information, Yang Yong instantly guessed which party was coming and what it meant when the other party came to him. However, the graceful demeanor cultivated by the royal family since childhood still allowed him to barely maintain it.
The majesty on the face does not fall.
"Your Excellency's abilities are indeed extraordinary, and they must have been hard-earned. Why do you have to embarrass the court? I wonder if there is some misunderstanding with Gu. If there is something that Gu can do, as long as you can abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, I will do anything!
"
"Is there any objection? Hahahaha! Well, I want your Prince Rui Yang Yong's head! You can bring it."
"Sir, this joke is not funny."
What Yang Yong responded to was a huge wave of terrifying shadows that rose more than three feet high and was shot down heavily!
"Boom!" There was an explosion. The figure of the middle-aged farmer who was blocking Yang Yong at the critical moment burst out all his martial arts energy. He could only barely block the huge wave of shadows for a moment, and then he and Yang Yong were involved in the wave of shadows.
.
The wave of shadows rotated violently and shocked for more than a dozen breaths. Then, with a sharp swing, Yang Yong was thrown out like a rag. He was smashed on the hard floor of the palace with exquisite and complicated patterns. Yang Yong's body made a dull sound.
.
After a long time, Yang Yong finally recovered slightly. He struggled hard on the ground for a few times, but failed to get up. In the end, he could only lie on his back on the ground unbearably.
"Yang Yong, I would like to ask you, what did your people do in Rongguo Mansion in August of the 41st year of Shengyuan?"
"Rong Guofu? Are you really from the Jia family?"
"Yang Yong, I am the one asking the question now!"
"Judging from your voice, you must be young. You were so concerned about what happened in Rongguo Mansion in August of that year. Haha... Are you the boy named Jia Lian?"
???
Jia Lian: Am I exposed?
"It seems that you are not at peace with the evil things you have done! So, Yang Yong, are you ready to report to the underworld?"
"Haha...hahaha...cough! Ahem...boy, what if I say that I didn't do that?"
Thanks to the boss of Abyss Ghosts and Gods for the hundred rewards!
May the colorful flags fly and the red flag never fall!
The number of investors is still 9 short of 100. I’m rolling around asking for investment!
