When Feng Jiuer walked into the side hall, Lan Yue had something in her hand and was studying it.
He was fascinated by it, but his attention didn't seem to be on this thing, but rather he seemed to be in a daze looking at it.
As he walked closer, Jiuer realized that what he was looking at was a jade pendant.
"uncle."
Jiu'er walked over and called softly.
Lan Yue suddenly woke up and looked at Feng Jiu'er who was walking up to her. The things in her hands were submerged in her palms.
He obviously took it out deliberately, but then suddenly took it back. There seemed to be something wrong with the uncle's expression.
"Uncle, what are you thinking about?"
Feng Jiuer sat down next to him, waved her hand to let Qiao Mu out, and then filled Lan Yue with a cup of tea.
"Uncle, what was in your hand just now?
Is it for me?"
This girl always spoke so directly. Lan Yue sighed and finally spread her palms.
"What's this?"
There was actually a pattern on the jade pendant! Jiuer took the jade pendant and took a closer look: "It seems...where have I seen it?"
"You probably haven't seen it before, but if I take out the topographic map you showed me that day and look at it in conjunction with the jade pendant, I might make new discoveries."
Jiuer immediately took out the topographic map from his sleeve pocket.
Lan Yue took the jade pendant back from her hand and placed it in the center of the terrain map.
It was a group of somewhat fuzzy lines, and the drawing was not clear. However, after placing the jade pendant on it, and looking at the topographic map through the gaps in the patterns carved on the jade pendant, I could vaguely see another picture.
"This...why does it feel like a mountain range?"
How come my uncle has such a jade pendant?
This jade pendant can be viewed together with the terrain map?
There was endless surprise in Feng Jiu'er's eyes. Looking at Lan Yue again, she felt that Lan Yue's eyes seemed to be a little darker after confirming that the jade pendant was related to the topographic map.
Uncle... seems to be in a bad mood.
"Uncle..." "I'll give this jade pendant to you."
"Why?"
When I looked at it just now, I clearly felt that this jade pendant was very important to my uncle.
"It's useless for me to keep it."
Lan Yue didn't want to say more. Since this girl has the Feng Clan's treasure map, she needs this jade pendant even more.
I originally thought that this jade pendant was going to be left to Feng Jiu'er, but unexpectedly, it was given to a girl named Feng Jiu'er.
Was there some arrangement somewhere along the way?
He has never met the real Jiu'er, but he always feels that Feng Jiu and Jiu'er are very similar.
No, it is not similar to Jiu'er. After all, Jiu'er was just a baby when he left the imperial city. When he came back later, Jiu'er was no longer alive.
Perhaps, he just felt that this girl was very similar to his sister... Jiu'er accepted this jade pendant. Maybe he would go to the Feng Clan and really be of help.
She hasn't arrived at the Desolate Ruins yet, so she can't tell what the pattern she sees through the jade pendant is. She will definitely know when she gets there.
However, she is more worried about her uncle and grandpa now.
"Uncle, can you promise me something?"
"What's the matter?"
Ever since this girl lost her martial arts skills, Lan Yue's attitude towards her has become much better than before.
I don’t know if it’s because of sympathy or pity or what. In short, when I look at her now, I always feel distressed. How can I think of being indifferent to her?
Feng Jiuer was silent for a moment, and after making sure there was no one else around, she whispered: "Uncle, don't act rashly for the time being. Can you wait until I come back..." "You don't have to worry about my affairs."
Lan Yue's face darkened slightly, she obviously disagreed with these words.
He can now be sure that Feng Jiu will not harm him, let alone the brothers in their villa.
However, this is his own business. Since Feng Jiu is not a member of Emperor Qiwen, it is best not to step into this muddy water.
What's more, he originally planned to wait for Feng Jiu to leave and immediately have his old father arranged before starting a new round of actions.
Feng Jiu is not in the imperial city. No matter whether her actions are exposed or not, at least she will not be implicated.
Her leaving was the best time for him.
Although Lan Yue said nothing, the aura in his eyes allowed Feng Jiu'er to see his thoughts clearly.
"Uncle, you can't!"
He actually planned to launch a new round of attacks while she was away from the imperial city! How could that be possible! It was too dangerous! Not to mention, there was a masked empress in the palace whose martial arts was so powerful that even she could not imagine it!
Although the Masked Empress may not necessarily care about Emperor Qiwen's life or death, it seems that the Masked Empress has many plans, and Emperor Qiwen may be able to help her.
Since it was useful, the Masked Empress would not allow Emperor Qiwen to die at the hands of his uncle.
When the time comes, if there is a head-to-head confrontation with the Masked Lady, Feng Jiuer is really not sure whether her uncle can win.
She has experienced the power of the Masked Empress herself! Even the Nine Emperors Uncle was injured by her hands. Is Uncle Lanyue sure that his martial arts is superior to the Nine Emperors Uncle?
He couldn't be sure at all, right?
"Uncle, listen to me. There are so many masters in the palace. You may not have the chance to get close to Emperor Qiwen. What's more, after the last assassination, Emperor Qiwen sent many more masters. Today, the palace is heavily guarded.
They are all institutions, if you try to force your way in, wouldn’t you be throwing yourself into a trap?”
"I told you, you don't need to worry about my affairs. Just go to the Feng Clan and look for what you're looking for."
"Uncle..." Lan Yue stood up and planned to leave.
Feng Jiu'er chased after her and said anxiously: "Uncle, if Jiu'er is still alive, she will definitely not want to see you so reckless!"
Reckless! She knew what she said was serious. Her uncle was burdened with a blood feud. The pressure on him and the pain he had endured for so many years were beyond her imagination.
Therefore, the word reckless is really hurtful.
But according to the current situation, it is really reckless to rush into the palace to assassinate him! "Uncle..." Jiu'er walked behind him, knowing that his self-esteem was hurt by his words, but there were some things that he still had to say.
"Just listen to my advice once and wait a little longer until I come back, okay?"
"When you come back, are you going to help me assassinate Emperor Qiwen, or are you going to help the Ninth Prince coordinate it and make me give up revenge?"
Lan Yue's words stunned Feng Jiu'er, unable to respond at all.
If possible, she naturally hopes that her uncle will stay calm for now and wait until she finds the real culprit behind the scenes.
But for the uncle, what is the difference between this and crushing his ideal with his own hands?
My uncle has lived for so many years just for revenge. Jiu'er doesn't want to see him like this, but this is his obsession.
After more than ten years, how difficult is it to break such an obsession?
