Lu Manxi did not argue with Lu Yuanxi, but still showed a strange smile. Along with his nondescript bald head, no matter how you look at it, it makes people think that this eldest prince is not a kind person. And he has been protecting Lu Lu, the person who has a great possibility of being involved in the Wu family tragedy.
People vaguely felt that Lu Manxi might be the real culprit back then. But when you think about it carefully, it is impossible. After all, he was only a teenager when the Wu family was in trouble. But all the evidence points to Cheng Chu, but the eldest prince is still standing with Cheng Chu at this moment, which makes people wonder.
The emperor never spoke during this period, but when Lu Manxi spoke for the journey again, displeasure appeared on the old and painful face. He also looked at his eldest son with fixed eyes.
Lu Manxi glanced at his father, smiled strangely, and continued drinking.
Wu Zhan couldn't hold back his emotions anymore, and with a strong force, he broke away from Xunfan's pressure. He ducked to the center of the hall, and the murderous aura on his body almost condensed into substance, heading straight for the distance.
Lu Lu felt the bone-chilling murderous intent for the first time. Wu Zhan has always had a murderous aura, but now his murderous aura is the aura of vowing to kill.
Unforgettable hatred, twenty-three years of pain and suffering. I warned myself over and over again in my heart that I must not forget the hatred, and I must vindicate the injustice for the Wu family.
This unparalleled injustice has been held in his heart for so many years. As time goes by, his hatred becomes stronger. But now that he has almost locked onto his enemy, how can he still suppress it.
Xunfan and Situ You ran out at the same time, grabbing his arms one on the left and the other on the right. Looking at Wu Zhan's current state, he will definitely go on a rampage and kill people. But now I don't care whether I can kill him or not. Even if he kills me, it will be in vain.
Even though all the symptoms indicate that Lu is the real murderer, there is no real evidence, so it cannot be said that Lu is the murderer. If Wu Zhan really makes a move, he will be caught by Lu Zhan, which will be extremely disadvantageous to Wu Zhan. Moreover, there are three female cultivators with good strength behind Lu Zhan, especially the masked woman standing in the middle, who is extremely powerful. not simple. Even a martial arts attack might not be able to kill him.
The Origin Qi fluctuations in Wu Zhan's body became more and more violent. Xunfan and Situ You also used a lot of Origin Qi power to hold Wu Zhan down.
"Wu Zhan, please don't be impatient. This is not the right time. Don't mess up something big. Your more than twenty years of waiting will be wasted." Xunfan whispered in Wu Zhan's ear.
What Wu Zhan cares about most is his own revenge. For revenge, any forbearance will do. In the Eastern Region for more than 20 years, waiting for the opportunity for so many years, isn't it just to be able to take revenge? To comfort the spirits of everyone in the Wu family. If he is impulsive and ruins a major event, he will become a sinner of the Wu family and be speechless against the ancestors of the Wu family.
The murderous aura in his body was weakening, but the ferocious eyes looking at the journey did not weaken at all.
"When the real culprit of the Wu family's massacre is confirmed, I, Wu Zhan, will cut his body into thousands of pieces and destroy his entire family. I will repay ten times what I have done to my Wu family." Wu Zhan said through clenched teeth.
After Wu Zhan finished speaking, he walked away. When he walked to the door, he said without looking back: "Xiao Yuan, I'll leave the investigation to you. This is what your Lu family owes to my Wu family!"
Indeed, this is what the Lu family owes to his Wu family. The Wu family has protected the empire for seven generations, and many good men from the Wu family have been stained with blood on the battlefield, but in the end, the Wu family, the most meritorious family in the world, was wiped out. However, the Lu family, which had been favored by the Wu family for so many years, failed to redress the injustice of the Wu family more than 20 years after the disappearance of the Wu family. It is true that the Lu family owes the Wu family a lot.
"Brother Zhan, don't worry. It doesn't matter if you die for this." Lu Yuanxi didn't say it loudly, but just whispered there.
Today's protagonist, Wu Zhan, is gone, and the banquet ends happily. In fact, everyone present was an important minister, and they all knew what the focus of today's banquet was. The banquet was just an excuse, during which Lu Manxi was the only one eating and drinking.
Today's meeting was very brief, and the only speakers were Lu Yuanxi, Lu Longxi and Distance. But it allowed everyone to clear away the thick fog and clarify some important points in the events that year.
The Wu family is absolutely innocent.
Lu Lu is most likely the culprit in the massacre of the Wu family.
The long road and the journey are connected with each other.
This imperial city is about to make waves again, and it will be a turbulent wave, earth-shattering.
In the next few days, what happened at the banquet spread like wildfire. Words have no feet, but they travel very fast. Now not only everyone in the imperial city knows what happened at the banquet, but almost the entire empire also knows.
This caused an uproar. Originally, people did not believe that the Wu family was wiped out, but now they all support the Wu family. There was an unprecedented frenzy throughout the empire, and the voices for Zhaoxue of the Wu family became louder and louder.
Only now did Xunfan and the others know the true purpose of this banquet. Not only to express those words, but more importantly, to use people's words to build momentum, create public opinion, and create a mass base for the redress of the Wu family.
Although the masses cannot control the situation, such a nationwide trend will create psychological pressure on those who frame the Wu family. At the same time, this method was used to express to the whole world that the Wu family had been wronged. This method was much more effective than the royal family coming forward to explain the innocence of the Wu family. The cleverness of this method was breathtaking.
Xunfan and the others finally understood the horror of the tactics of conspiracy, and all this must be the result of a conspiracy between Lu Yuanxi and the emperor. But although Lu Yuanxi's tactics are powerful, he uses them on the right path, and his high IQ cannot but be admired.
Now we finally know that the Wu family was wrongly accused, but we only suspect that Lu Yuan may be the culprit who framed the Wu family, but because there is no evidence, we can only wait for the arrival of the witnesses Lu Yuanxi said. Everyone was practicing and waiting at Wu Zhan's home.
During this period, Wu Zhan hardly spent time with everyone, locking himself in the main hall to accompany the souls of his clan members. He was about to avenge his family, and the hatred in Wu Zhan's heart became even stronger.
In the past few days, the number of long-distance visits has become less and less. Everyone understands that he is taking care of the important matter of redressing the injustice of the Wu family. What Wu Zhan said that day, "The investigation of Xiao Yuan's case will be left to you. This is what your Lu family owes to my Wu family." put too much pressure on Lu Yuanxi, and just as Wu Zhan said, The Lu family owes the Wu family a lot.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Wu family has been the patron saint of the empire. He used his own blood and life to protect the safety of the empire, and that was why the Lu family had been firmly in the position of emperor for so long. But the Wu family was wronged, and it took more than twenty years for the Lu family to start redressing the injustice for the Wu family.
In these hundreds of years, no one from the Wu family has ever said what Wu Zhan said, "It's your Lu family that owes me the Wu family." They always believed in the unswerving relationship between the Wulu family and devoted themselves without any regrets from beginning to end. But it brought him the disaster of annihilation. How could Wu Zhan not have resentment in his heart.
There is another important reason. The Wu family only controlled the country's military strength. In terms of political management, it has not been involved at all. Especially now, the only thing left in the Wu family is martial arts.
If Wu Zhan ascends to the top and makes a call, a large number of troops will respond to the Wu family. But it is still a military bargaining chip. For this kind of investigation, the investigation of the information and files of those who participated in framing the Wu family was beyond the scope of the power controlled by the Wu family.
The Lu family is the royal family and has the absolute right and ability to visit everyone. This is also the main reason why Wu Zhan said that.
With Lu Yuanxi's respect for Wu Zhan and the Wu family. Wu Zhan's words weighed more than a thousand pounds, causing him to devote himself both physically and mentally to the investigation of the Wu family tragedy.
On this day, everyone was chatting together after practicing. Wu Zhan also came out to sit with everyone, but he still didn't like to talk too much. Someone came to report that the eldest prince Lu Manxi was visiting.
This sudden news immediately confused everyone. What are you doing here at this time? He and Cheng Cheng were obviously on the same team, and Cheng Cheng was most likely the enemy of the Wu family.
Since he helped Lu Lu speak for him more than once at the banquet, everyone had a very bad impression of the eldest prince, and he must have been able to see the attitude of the people on Wu Zhan's side towards him, but he came at this time. What do you want?
No one went out to greet the eldest prince, and soon Lu Manxi entered the room. There is still a seemingly friendly smile on his face, but it feels mysterious.
But Lu Manxi didn't care at all that no one was there to greet him, and went straight to Wu Zhan and sat down. Wu Zhan, on the other hand, looked at the eldest prince with a frosty face, the strange man he called his elder brother when he was a child.
"Brother Zhan, how come after more than 20 years of separation, even the eldest brother doesn't want to get close to me. I think back then, you and I got along very well. How good is it that the elder brother is younger than the younger brother?" Lu Manxi seemed to be sighing, more like He was testing Wu Zhan's attitude towards him.
"The eldest prince said something serious. Back then, Wu Zhan was young and ignorant, and he didn't know the depth. He was worthy of the eldest prince's brothers, and he didn't know the heights of heaven and earth. Now Wu Zhan is the scapegoat, and he cannot go beyond etiquette." Wu Zhan's cold words showed that Because of his mentality, he didn't want to treat the eldest prince who was protecting his journey as brothers anymore.
"Brother Zhan was angry that I spoke for Uncle Wang that day. Everything that happened that day was indeed not good for Uncle Wang. Anyone else would have told Uncle Wang that he was most likely the culprit who framed the Wu family. But I know that Uncle Wang would not do that. Yes, Uncle Wang is a good person. Mr. Xunfan and Mr. Situ also know this. In the Eastern Region, Uncle Wang helped the two gentlemen a lot, right, gentlemen." Lu Yuanxi smiled Looking at Xunfan and Situ You.
The two of them immediately understood what Lu Manxi meant when he said that the help was not small. It refers to the fact that Situ You got so many good things along the way.
Xunfan said nothing and listened calmly, while Situ You smiled and said to Lu Manxi: "Please tell the prince for me, the eldest prince, that Xunfan and I will never forget the promise we made at that time. "
promise? What promise? Are they related to the journey? They all looked at them.
This troublemaker, saying this now, doesn't this make everyone suspicious? Xunfan felt this curse in his heart. He didn't know what promise Situ You was talking about, and looked at him suspiciously.
"When the prince is in danger, we will be there." Situ You made that promise. Xunfan finally remembered and then smiled. Is attendance required? I'm afraid it's a slap in the face!
Lu Manxi didn't say anything, looked at everyone and said: "Everyone here is the top combat force in the mainland. This is a big combat force. I have seen many heroes, and I will be in contact with you often in the future. . I also hope that everyone will treat each other with sincerity."
No one paid attention to Lu Manxi's words, but he was still lukewarm. Still smiling. Turning his head and looking at Wu Zhan, he said: "Brother Zhan is unhappy with me because I spoke for Uncle Wang. And I am close to Xiao Yuan because Xiao Yuan is running for the Wu family to redress the injustice. In fact, I can do that too. If Xiao Yuan can redress the injustice for the Wu family, I, the eldest brother, can also do it. If I contribute to redressing the injustice for the Wu family, what will you do?"
Everyone never expected that he would say this, and everyone looked at this weird eldest prince.
"If the eldest prince can find the real culprit of the Wu family, you will be my eldest brother forever." Wu Zhan said meaningfully. Everyone knows that Lu Manxi and Cheng Cheng are in the same group. And it is almost certain that Lu is his enemy. Find out the real enemy, will he hand over the journey? Disaster!
Lu Yuanxi stood up and walked out, "Okay, brother Zhan, remember what you said today. Brother is gone." He drifted away. Still no one came to see me off.
