Tang Xiaobao said: "You are really kind. If it were me, I would probably kill them all. There is no use in keeping them."
Cheng Yin looked begging.
"Okay, then you can handle this matter first. How do you need me to cooperate?"
"I will ask them to come down the mountain to see you and see their attitude."
"Okay, oh, by the way, there is one more thing about your daughter. How are you going to tell her?"
"I'll talk to her later. I don't want to hurt her, so just tell the truth."
"If people know that she is your daughter, will it affect your position as Pavilion Master?"
"Even if I am not the master of the pavilion, I still have to recognize her. After hiding it for so many years, I am actually very tired. Although I usually take care of her a lot, I can't do it too obviously in front of the people below.
As a mother, I have had enough of the pain of not being able to love my daughter openly."
Cheng Yinyin bit her lip and said.
She seemed to have made up her mind.
Tang Xiaobao nodded: "Okay, the rules of your Xianyin Pavilion are passed down from your ancestors. You cannot get married, right?"
"Yes."
"Then you are the Pavilion Master now. You can make new rules. Don't worry, with me here, no one will threaten your position as Pavilion Master."
Tang Xiaobao praised Haikou and made a guarantee.
Cheng Yinyin said movedly: "Thank you very much, elder."
…
After lunch, Tang Xiaobao returned to his palace to rest.
In just one morning, the news that Tang Xiaobao became the Supreme Elder of Xianyin Pavilion had spread to everyone.
This news is absolutely shocking.
Xianyin Pavilion never accepts men.
It was very rare for people like Tang Xiaobao to stay overnight in Xianyin Pavilion, which was considered a break from convention.
Now, he has actually become the Supreme Elder.
Cheng Yinyin also announced in public that Tang Xiaobao was not only the Supreme Elder, but also the number one Supreme Elder.
From now on, if Tang Xiaobao gives any orders, everyone in the Xianyin Pavilion must not disobey them, otherwise, they will be bullying their teachers and destroying their ancestors.
As soon as this news was announced, it would naturally cause dissatisfaction among some people.
Why?
How can a man be so virtuous and capable at such a young age?
This is to override the pavilion master.
But all the dissatisfaction can only be kept in the heart, and no one dares to speak out.
Who doesn't know that Tang Xiaobao is a distinguished guest invited by the Pavilion Master? To question him publicly is to question the Pavilion Master's authority.
Cheng Yinyin returned to her residence and found Zhao Ling'er.
After shooing away the other disciples, Cheng Yinyin looked at Zhao Ling'er, sighed and said, "Sit down."
"Pavilion Master, do you have anything to do with me?"
Zhao Ling'er is still covered in bones.
She asked as soon as she sat down.
She still respected this pavilion master very much.
Of course she can feel Cheng Yinyin's kindness to her.
She has always regarded Cheng Yinyin as her mother.
"Ling'er, do you have anything to say about my decision just now?"
Cheng Yinyin asked.
Zhao Ling'er said respectfully: "The master of the pavilion makes such a decision, of course you have your reasons."
"But, your fellow apprentices and sisters are very unconvinced."
"That's because they don't know how powerful Elder Tang is. If they knew that Elder Tang had robbed the ancient martial arts world, they might not be dissatisfied. I'm also curious, why didn't you tell them about this?"
Zhao Ling'er said doubtfully.
Cheng Yinyin said: "Why do you say that He Zhidong didn't know that we invited him here? Don't you think it would be better to let him suffer some losses in a few days? If he knew that Elder Tang was here, he would definitely not come here. This
I know people too well. They bully the weak and fear the strong, and they are eyeing us. It’s just a lesson for him.”
Zhao Ling'er suddenly realized it and stopped talking.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. There are no outsiders here."
"yes."
Zhao Ling'er agreed, frowned and said: "What I'm worried about now are the several Supreme Elders on Baihua Mountain. They will definitely know the news. When the time comes, what will happen if they make things difficult for you together?"
"Hmph, I do hope they will come to make trouble. Well, I have already asked someone to inform them of this matter, and I order them to go down the mountain to see Elder Tang within today."
Cheng Yinyin said with a glint in her eyes.
Zhao Ling'er was startled: "At this critical time, aren't you stimulating them?"
"Yes, I just want to stimulate them. You don't have to worry about this matter. I have my own reasons. Now, what I want to say is another matter, which is related to you and is very important."
Cheng Yinyin said.
Zhao Ling'er was a little confused.
related to her.
Suddenly, something happened in her heart, her face changed slightly and turned red.
When Cheng Yinyin saw this, she coughed and said, "You——"
"Pavilion Master, I, I, I was picked up by you. Without you, I would still be in the orphanage. You have nurtured me. If you have to let me accompany him, I, I, I can't
Refuse, but I really don’t love him.”
sweat……
Cheng Yinyin was stunned, unable to laugh or cry.
Misunderstand……
"You think I'm going to force you?"
"I, I don't know."
"I won't force you."
Cheng Yinyin took a breath and sighed: "How could I be willing to force you?"
Her expression was full of doting. At this moment, Zhao Linger was actually a little moved.
It was this smile that she remembered all her life. Although she was still young in the orphanage, when she first saw Cheng Yinyin, the latter had such a smile.
"Actually, you are not an orphan."
"What?"
Zhao Ling'er felt like she was struck by lightning: "I'm not an orphan?"
"Yes, your mother is still here."
Zhao Ling'er looked excited: "Where is she? Is she still alive?"
"You want to see her?"
"How could you not want to?"
Zhao Linger pursed her lips.
"Then you don't hate her?"
"Hate...I, I don't know."
Zhao Ling'er lowered her head with a complicated expression.
Cheng Yinyin opened her mouth, but she didn't dare to say any more.
She is also very nervous now.
This secret has been kept for decades. She originally wanted to keep it forever, but now, she wants to tell it, but she is so scared.
She is afraid that her daughter will hate her.
After a while, Zhao Ling'er seemed to have calmed down and asked: "Pavilion Master, please tell me, I really want to see her, not to mention love or hate, I just want to ask her, since she gave birth back then,
Me, why did she send me to the orphanage again? I just want to ask why she hasn't visited me after so many years."
"I--"
Cheng Yinyin's eyes turned red and she started to cry.
When Zhao Ling'er saw it, she quickly said: "Pavilion Master, why are you crying?"
"Okay, there are some things that I have hidden from you for more than ten years. I can't hide them forever. That would be unfair to you."
Zhao Ling'er was baffled.
Cheng Yinyin no longer hesitated and said directly: "Actually, I am your biological mother. If you want to hate me or scold me, I will not blame you. After all, I have treated you too badly over the years."
