Chapter 301: Forbidden Land of Ancient Ghosts

"The eleventh sister who is directly related to the fifth family!"

The surrounding Su family did not expect that this mysterious woman was actually the eleventh sister, Su Chuo, who had been expelled from the sect long ago!

Whether they are the Su family or visitors, there are many young and beautiful women among them.

But as soon as Lu Pianpian took off her veil, they felt a little ashamed of themselves.

Even Su Wan, Cai Quan'er and others who are very confident in their appearance are all like this.

Ming Mu, Zhang Dan and other foreign men looked at Lu Pianpian intently, making no secret of their admiration, their eyes sparkling.

After Su Wan was briefly stunned, his face suddenly turned cold.

When she saw Su Chuo's unparalleled splendor, which overturned all sentient beings, and suddenly compared herself with him, she couldn't help but feel jealous.

Especially the obsessed gazes of Zhang Dan and others made her even more jealous.

Women from scholarly families may not all be so elegant and virtuous.

"What Eleventh Sister?" Su Wan said, "Her family has been expelled from the clan long ago and she is no longer a member of the Su family in Shu County."

Everyone was stunned and didn't speak for a moment.

Su Wan smiled coldly and raised his head slightly to look at Lu Pianpian, "You have not been from the Su clan for a long time. How did you sneak in? No wonder you are sneaking around with a veil."

She was only a sixth-grade monk, and she didn't dare to be so rude to Lu Pianpian, a fifth-grade monk. But this was the Su family, so she was naturally confident.

"Sixth sister." Fourth brother Su Yin shook his head, "Don't be impatient for a moment. You don't need to mention what happened back then. Eleventh sister is back today..."

"Why can't you mention it again?" Su Wan heard the hint of protection in Su Yin's tone, and felt even more unhappy.

"Back then, her father colluded with the Demon Cult and leaked military secrets, which led to a thorough investigation by the court and almost harmed the Su family."

"If the family hadn't decisively expelled them from the clan, the consequences would have been disastrous."

"It's only been nine years since this happened, why can't I mention it? Can anyone from the Su family come in casually?"

Su Yin frowned and wanted to refute, but didn't know how to speak.

There are some words that you can only know in your heart, but you cannot express them with your mouth!

Su Wan is not stupid usually, why is he confused today?

Yes, in order to clear up the relationship, the family decisively threw away soldiers to save the car, expelled Wufang and his family from the clan, and Wushu also committed suicide.

Only in this way can the Su family's status and power be preserved.

But one moment and another moment! Now that the imperial court has too much time to take care of itself, how can it care about colluding with the demonic sect back then?

Nine years ago, the imperial court was still peaceful.

But now, rebels and thieves are rising all over the world, and the imperial court has been overwhelmed by the repeated defeats of the Jin army. It has lost sight of one thing and lost its prestige.

I don’t know how many families are ready to take action, planning to make bets on both sides and collude in all directions!

Why should the Su family still be cautious about what happened back then?

Eleventh sister is so outstanding. She came back today on her own initiative. Why should she be turned away?

Confused!

But Su Yin could not say these words in public.

After all, Shu County is still in the hands of the imperial court, and the emperor is still sitting in Chang'an. The centipede is dead but not stiff. Even if the dynasty really changes, it will not be now.

If it were said now, the Su family would be fine. First of all, they would fall out with each other.

"You don't understand." Su Yin's face darkened, "Eleventh sister is of the Su family's blood after all..."

"Fourth brother, why don't you understand?" Su Wan became more and more angry, "Is it possible that when the head of the family expelled them from the clan and stripped them of their clan membership, it was all fake?"

"I see." Ming Mu smiled slightly and smoothed things over: "Maybe it was a misunderstanding. The imperial court didn't investigate, so why should the Sixth Lady care?"

"We are all a family. Now that Miss Eleven is back, you sisters should be happy to see each other again."

He actually spoke for Su Chuo.

Lu Pianpian smiled and said: "Mr. Ming is right. What happened back then was just a misunderstanding. Mr. Ming is a nobleman of the clan and represents the court. So I can rest assured."

Her charming smile made Mingmu's heart suddenly tremble, and his soul was numb.

It’s worth speaking for a beauty!

A kiss with Fangze...there's something to be said for it!

Zhang Dan also quickly spoke up: "I've heard about what happened back then. Wufang was dismissed that year, so he was punished. There is also a time limit for being exiled and imprisoned, isn't it?"

"Forgive others when you find mercy. The saint's way of forgiveness is designed for this."

"The eleventh lady is back today because blood is thicker than water. Recognizing your ancestors and returning to your clan is... filial piety!"

"I, the Great Xia, rule the world with filial piety! Even the princes in the imperial court will not pursue it any further."

It is also the way of forgiveness of the saint and the great justice of filial piety. He is worthy of being the heir of Wenchang Bo Mansion.

"Master Zhang really understands justice." Lu Pianpian did not hesitate to give Zhang Dan a smile, "He is indeed a descendant of sages."

Zhang Dan couldn't help but feel swayed when he saw the girl's moon-like smile. The dignified fifth-rank official was actually a little lustful.

It’s not his fault. Su Chuosheng is so good-looking that even a man would find it difficult to remain calm.

Su Chuo secretly said to Lu Pianpian:

"You smile on the left and the other on the right, are you trying to pull off a honey trap? My smile is so worthless? I'm telling you, don't mess with it."

"If you provoke their inappropriate thoughts, won't you be self-defeating?"

"Hee." Lu Pianpian disagreed, "Do you think my sister gives them smiles for free? She is angry for beauty, but she smiles only for money."

"If I give them a smile, they have to help me and give me benefits."

"If you don't hit the smiling person with your hand, why should you take it seriously if you are in the world?"

After Lu Pianpian and Su Chuo finished talking, she looked at Su Yin with a smile, "Thank you, fourth brother. My little sister is wandering in the world, and she often misses her fourth brother and everyone."

Her expression became a little sad, and she looked around the huge library, "I often think of the Phoenix Book Pavilion."

When Su Yin and others heard this, they were also a little emotional.

"No matter what happened back then, now that Eleventh Sister has returned home, she is one of our own." Su Yin said with a gentle look, acting like an elder brother.

"Don't worry, eleventh sister. Since I promised to rescue you, brother, of course I will rescue you to the end."

Su Ding, another direct son of the Su family, also smiled and said: "The return of the eleventh sister is a great joy for our Su family. At least we ordinary people can only dream of it."

When the young masters of the Su family saw such a fairy-like sister coming back, they naturally accepted her generously and wished for her.

But the ladies of the Su family are different.

Not only was Su Wan hostile because of jealousy, there was also a woman named Su Xiu who also looked coldly on Su Chuo.

They hate it when sisters who are more beautiful and outstanding than them suddenly appear and take away their limelight and pride.

"Fifth brother." Su Xiu spoke up to help Su Wan, "Such a major matter as recognizing one's ancestors and returning to the clan needs to be decided by the grandfather or the head of the family. How can we, the younger generation, overstep our authority?"

"The punishment given to Wufang back then was a family temple meeting and a clan meeting in front of the ancestors. Since he was expelled from the clan and his clan membership was revoked, Wufang is no longer a clan member."

"Why are you so casual today? Are family laws and clan rules just for show?"

Su Xiu really couldn't stand the way Zhang Dan and other men tried to please Su Chuo, and couldn't stand how Su Chuo became the center of attention as soon as he came back.

A person who was expelled, why?

Upon seeing this, Cai Quan'er's mouth curved up and she couldn't help but smile with gloating.

She wished that Su Chuo would be targeted. She didn't like people who were more beautiful than herself.

"That's it!" Another woman named Su Yue stood up and said with a frosty face:

"Fifang almost harmed the Su family back then. It's only been nine years since the incident. How can you think that family laws and family rules are child's play?"

"Fourth brother and fifth brother, you are so protective of her, but we will not obey. Unless my grandfather or the head of the family personally orders the abolition of the family punishment back then!"

Suddenly, three legitimate daughters-in-law, Su Wan, Su Xiu, and Su Yue, came out to attack one after another.

Just as Su Yin was about to speak, Su Ding spoke up: "Seventh sister! Why are you joining in the fun? What do you know? You can't help but touch family laws and clan rules!"

"Don't fourth brother and I understand family laws and clan rules better than you do?"

"I, the Su family, come from a scholarly family, and this is the Phoenix Book Pavilion, a place of gentleness and tranquility! In front of guests, how can you be so unbecoming of making things difficult for sisters of the same race?"

Ming Mu and Zhang Dan once again spoke up for the beauty, "Harmony is precious, harmony is precious! The eleventh lady recognizes her ancestor and returns to the clan, which is also a happy event for your house..."

Since they received Lu Pianpian's smile, of course they had to speak for Su Chuo.

Su Yin finally spoke, "Sixth sister, seventh sister, it's understandable that you care about family laws and clan rules, so you have overreacted. As brothers, I don't blame you."

He smiled slightly and said calmly, "But the head of the family and my grandfather have made their own decisions, so you guys just need to calm down! The head of the family and my grandfather will soon have instructions."

"Brother, let me tell you first, we are all sisters, and we cannot write two characters of Su in one stroke. Let's just do it. If you want to read, you can read. If you don't want to read, just go outside for a walk."

Su Wan and other women did not dare to oppose fourth brother Su Yin anymore.

"Ha." Su Wan sneered, turned around and walked out.

Su Xiu, Su Yue and other women also followed her out.

Cai Quan'er thought for a while, felt bored, and left.

Lu Pianpian secretly teased Su Chuo: "Su Chuo, you are not very popular in the Su family. You see, your sisters all hate you and wish you to die."

Su Chuo was speechless, "Am I not popular? They are obviously jealous of me. They have been jealous of me since they were young."

Lu Pianpian was speechless, "They have been jealous of you since they were children? I really don't believe it. You can't even practice. At least they can practice. How can they be jealous of you?"

"Is it just because you have a photographic memory? This is indeed a skill, but it is not worthy of the envy of a monk."

"If I were jealous of your beauty, but you were still young at that time and didn't grow at all, so how could you be so beautiful?"

"Sister Yi, it seems that they were not jealous of you back then, but they looked down on you."

Su Chuo: "......"

After Lu Pianpian finished attacking Su Chuo, he started to do business.

"Fourth brother, I'm going to see my fourth uncle and ask him for advice on a feng shui issue. I found an ancient tomb outside and I need to solve it with feng shui."

Su Yin nodded and smiled: "You are lucky. My fourth uncle just came back from Jingzhou not long ago and is studying the art of Kanyuyi. He will definitely not give me face, but maybe he will meet you."

"Just came back from Jingzhou?" Lu Pianpian was startled, and then said to Su Yin and others in a stern tone: "Everyone, please excuse me, I'll go first! See you later!"

Before leaving, she did not forget to smile and greet Zhang Dan and Ming Mu, giving them a feeling of "a beautiful smile between the bamboo fences".

"Eleven ladies, walk slowly!"

Ming Mu, Zhang Dan and others looked at that graceful and graceful figure, their eyes involuntarily revealed a fiery look.

"Brother Su." Zhang Dan withdrew his gaze with some unfinished thoughts, "The eleventh lady is so graceful and graceful, with a heroic appearance, and the beauty is alone in the photo, which makes people admire her so much."

He came to Su Mansion this time for the purpose of getting married. When he met Su Chuo, who was extremely elegant, he immediately regarded Su Chuo as his first choice.

As for Su Wan, Su Xiu and others whom he had a good impression of before, he no longer had much interest.

Su Chuo is the best candidate for Mrs. Wen Changbo in the future.

Ming Mu was afraid that Zhang Dan would take advantage of him, so he said it more directly:

"Brother Su, my sister's country is beautiful and fragrant, and I have forgotten the customs when I see her. If I'm not afraid of Brother Su's displeasure, what else can a husband ask for when he has such a wife?"

After all, Su Yin was a young man from an aristocratic family, and he usually thought of himself as elegant and polite. Now when he heard Ming Mu say something so explicit, he couldn't help but feel unhappy.

Huh, I, the legitimate daughter of the Su family, am noble, can I speak blasphemously at will? It is really unreasonable for you to speak so freely!

However, Ming Mu was the nephew of the King of Shu, a clan relative of Daxia, and had the title of General Fengguo. Even if Su Yin was unhappy, he could not embarrass him.

He pretended not to hear Ming Mu's words, but changed the subject to Zhang Dan:

"Brother Ruoming, I heard that Cai Xuanshu, the seventh lady's brother, has become a doctor in the examination department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs?"

Zhang Dan nodded, "Exactly. Cai Ji attacked the spiritual officials and wrote letters to speak out, which won the favor of the cabinet. Even the chief minister and the emperor knew that the auspiciousness of Maple Leaf Village's Qingyun's birth should be Cai Ji's body."

"The imperial court issued an edict proclaiming that 'Qingyun descends into the world and sages enter the court' to encourage the hearts of the people in the government and the public. Cai Ji really has arrived at the right time."

After saying that, there was a lot of envy in his tone.

Cai Ji was very lucky. The court needed auspiciousness to inspire people, so Cai Ji just happened to have a "Qingyun Comes to the World".

Even if it is false, the court will say it is true.

Su Yin echoed: "The arrival of Qingyun into the world is a sign of a virtuous minister and a good prime minister. So, can Cai Xuan Shu really enter the cabinet and pay homage to the prime minister?"

Zhang Dan looked determined, "More than just entering the pavilion to pay homage to the prime minister? Cai Xuan's letter is in the heart of the emperor, and it will be a matter of time for him to be declared numb. But in the future, he may not just be Xuan numb."

"Oh? It's not just Xuan Ma who pays homage to the prime minister?" Su Yin became curious after hearing this, "I would like to hear the details!"

Zhang Dan said with great interest: "There is a prophecy in Chang'an: 'When a great name comes out of a book, it will clear the heart of a vegetable leaf; when a mysterious book comes out of Luoshui, it will bring peace to the world!'"

"Look, Cai Ji's courtesy name is Xuan Shu. Doesn't this prophecy refer to him?"

"He has a famous name. Others have no name, but he happens to have a famous name. Cai, Cai Ye. Clear the heart of Cai Ye and say that he is loyal and upright."

"Xuanshu came out of Luoshui...his name is Xuanshu, isn't that the right match? He is the great sage who saves the world, Ning said!"

Save Shi Daxian!

This is not just as simple as a prime minister! This is really a sage like Zhuge Kongming!

Su Yin looked surprised, "Rescuing the sage of time? Cai Xuanshu can really take on the responsibility..."

Having said this, he didn't say any more.

Cai Ji is a relative of Wenchangbo Mansion and a disciple of Wenchangbo Mansion. If he can really become a sage who saves the times, Wenchangbo Mansion will certainly be honored.

In front of Zhang Dan, he certainly could not question whether this prophecy was false.

Ming Mu smiled and said: "Isn't this prophecy unreliable? In the past two thousand years of my reign in the Great Xia, Emperor Taizu's bowl filled with heaven and earth. Isn't it destiny?"

"Although the national affairs are slightly depressed today, the destiny still exists and is as stable as a mountain. Where is the need for any sages to save the time?"

"Even if we really need to save the sage of time, I'm afraid it won't be Cai Xuanshu's turn."

Zhang Dan looked unswerving, but he was too lazy to argue with a noble family member like Ming Mu.

Huh, do you really think that your Ming clan is as stable as Mount Tai? Without the support of Confucian and Taoist scholars, Daxia would have perished long ago. What will be the fate of your Ming clan?

He simply said: "The seventh lady is likely to become the king's stepmother. Cai Xuanshu has been favored by the emperor, and his sister should not remain a concubine."

This is telling Mingmu: My father, Wen Changbo, believes in that prophecy. Who do you have the right to question?

Su Yin discovered that with the appearance of Eleventh Sister, Ming Mu and Zhang Dan, who were already a bit uncooperative, became even more tit for tat.

The eleventh sister's smiles provoked the two of them to confront each other. Really... beauty is a curse!

………

Lu Pianpian came to the Feng Shui Academy deep in the book pavilion and found that the Feng Shui Academy was an artificially arranged landscape garden.

Among the entire Phoenix Book Pavilion, this academy is the most remote and quietest place.

There was no human figure nearby, only dry water, ancient trees, red clouds, mounds, and stalagmites.

"Hey, it's strange." Lu Pianpian looked at the surrounding environment, "Why does this environment look familiar? I seem to have seen it somewhere before?"

Su Chuo said: "Have you ever met my fourth uncle Su Yu before?"

"I didn't know about Su Yu at all before," Lu Pianpian said, "I remembered it. There is a Feng Shui master in the Jingzhou General Altar of the Zhensi Sect named Chu Xuanji. He is my master's confidant and an elder of the sect."

"Although Chu Xuanji is my master's confidant, he doesn't know that my master is Medicine Master Tang."

"The cave where Chu Xuanji lives is very similar to here, and the layout is exactly the same."

"What?" Su Chuo was stunned, "Is my fourth uncle Chu Xuanji? Didn't he just come back from Jingzhou? Isn't the main altar of the Zhensi Sect in Jingzhou?"

Lu Pianpian looked at the Feng Shui arrangements around her with a playful expression.

"Hee. Your fourth uncle is hiding deep enough. Maybe he is really Chu Xuanji!"

"Your father colluded with the Zhensi Sect and was expelled from the sect. If Su Yu is Chu Xuanji, then he is not only colluding with the sect? He is also a high-ranking member of the sect!"

Su Chuo was silent for a while, and said in a faint tone, "Don't worry about this for now, just ask for a meeting."

At this moment, she suddenly discovered that her father's collusion with the Zhensi Cult might have a hidden agenda, and it was not that simple.

Lu Pianpian shouted crisply: "Niece Su Chuo, meet my fourth uncle! Please take the time to meet me, my fourth uncle!"

After a long time, a familiar voice came: "Su Chuo? The fifth brother's daughter, Chuo'er?"

When Lu Pianpian heard this voice, her heart suddenly brightened. She thought to herself:

"Su Chuo, that's right. I know that voice very well! Your fourth uncle, Su Yu, is the elder of our sect, Chu Xuanji!"

PS: What kind of readers are you guessing? I am a book friend who has always been loyal to me. I hope you will always be well. This book is just for you. Good night!

I would like to ask, can Wang Shuo write novels? He speaks very ignorantly, seems to have never read any books, and seems to be very poor in knowledge and ideas. Can he really write novels?

This person denies the prosperity of the Han and Tang dynasties, and just accuses the history of China. But the reason is too low, he is very illiterate, like a clown, he must have read few books.
