After hearing what An Wuyu said, Yu Lingyi's eyes widened and asked, "Oh? Why did Pavilion Master An say this?"
He thought to himself, "According to what the emperor said, King Julu at that time fled from Jianzhou in Zhulan County to Ganshui City in Fanxi County, while King Leiyang hid from Hanzhou in Xiahe County to Nianzhou in Tankou County. . Since I have found the descendants of King Julu in Ganshui City, it means that the message the emperor received is true. Although the descendants of King Leiyang are also named Xu, they are in Nianzhou instead of Ruozhou. How can I Wu Yu actually said that the Xu family of Ruozhou is probably the descendant of King Leiyang? This is strange."
"I didn't know at first. I dared to guess so after reading the letter from my ancestor." An Wuyu said seriously, "The An and Chen families are of the same origin. This is written in the genealogy of both families. However, An and Chen The Chen family has always been on good terms with the Xu family, this is no accident."
Seeing the suspicion on Yu Lingyi's face, he added: "Twenty-one years ago, there was a very talented young swordsman in the An family. He was killed while traveling to Ruozhou. Later, Zhaixing Pavilion found out that the murderer was Xu You know, the swordsman who was killed was my second uncle’s favorite son, and the An family would never give up. But the result was that my second uncle endured it and never even went to the Xu family. At that time, no one in the clan could figure it out, they all thought that the second uncle was old and fearful and did not dare to provoke the Xu family."
"This is happening!" Yu Lingyi was also very surprised.
An Wuyu nodded and continued: "It is sheer nonsense to say that the second uncle is old and afraid of getting into trouble. With the second uncle's martial arts at that time, no one in the Xu family could be his opponent. And I know best the strength of the Zhaixing Pavilion. No, there is no argument that the An family does not dare to go to the Xu family."
Yu Lingyi naturally knew something about the two families, and since An Wuyu dared to say this, it meant that even if the strength of the An family was not as good as that of the Xu family, it was not far behind, so he said, "Not bad."
"Er Niang was so angry that she cut off her (*) meridians and died. It was rumored in the whole clan for a while." An Wuyu said softly with a look of unbearability on his face, "Not long after, the second uncle became seriously ill. Before he died, he still I have been told a thousand times that no matter what, I must not ruin the harmony between the An and Xu families. I also said that it is passed down from ancestors and that the three families of Chen, An, and Xu should be as close as one family."
After pausing for a few breaths, he added, "What's even more puzzling is what happened next." Before Yu Lingyi could ask, An Wuyu answered, "The second uncle left not long after. On his first seven days, Xu Xiaoyu actually brought a human head."
"Head?" Yu Lingyi frowned and asked, "Is he the murderer of that young swordsman?"
"Yes." An Wuyu replied, "It turns out that Xu Xiaoyu has been investigating that matter, and later it was found out that the murderer was a high-status retainer of the Xu family. In the end, he ignored everyone's pleas and killed the retainer with a sword. Cut off the head and bring it to the grave of my second uncle and second mother."
After hearing this, Yu Lingyi already understood and nodded slightly.
"It wasn't until now that I read three old letters." An Wuyu sighed, "It turns out that our ancestors, King Julu and King Leiyang, were brothers born from the same mother. After changing their surnames in Qianshui City, our ancestors sent many I went to Hanzhou to inquire about my brother's whereabouts, but I didn't find him at that time. I think it was probably later that the two families got to know each other."
... ...
In Prince Yun's palace, He Fukai traveled quickly.
"Your Majesty! There's good news!" When he saw Xia Muyan, he couldn't help but laugh.
Xia Muyan was copying scriptures, and when he heard the joy in He Fukai's words, he was a little infected. He glanced up at him and said with a smile: "What good news? I can make you so happy."
"Your Majesty should have guessed it." He Fu opened the door.
The political situation in Dahua has become dominated by one family. Although there are many enemies of Prince Yun's Palace, there are only two who are really threatening: one is the Duanmu family and the other is Prince Duan's Palace.
The only thing that could make He Fukai smile so brightly at the moment was that something happened to one of the two families.
The Duanmu family has a solid foundation, so there is no possibility of anything going wrong. The only possibility is Prince Duan's Mansion.
Xia Muyan frowned slightly and chuckled: "It couldn't be that news came from Prince Duan's Mansion?"
He has been dormant for many years and has already set up spies in various houses. Some big news cannot be hidden from these spies.
"The news came from the palace that King Duan had not entered the palace at three quarters at noon. I was feeling strange. Just now our people sent a message. Early this morning, King Duan fell ill after returning to the palace. All the family members in the palace fell ill. He was standing guard outside his door. I heard from the two old monks that I'm afraid it won't work anymore." He Fukai became more and more happy as he spoke, and the corners of his mouth raised higher and higher.
"It is indeed good news!" Xia Muyan couldn't help but praise, with a smile on his face. As if he remembered something, he thought for a moment and asked, "Two old monks? Who are those?"
"The monk from Kuchan Temple." He Fukai had already sorted out his clues and replied, "He is here to ask for an explanation for the old monk Xuan Yue. I heard that King Duan fell ill, and it was those two old monks who made him angry."
Hearing this, Xia Muyan understood. Without asking any questions, he lowered his head and continued copying scriptures.
After about a quarter of an hour, I think I finished copying the scriptures.
He put away his pen and inkstone, arranged the desk, and asked softly: "Is Zhang Suiguang still in Lingchengzhai?"
He Fukai thought for a while and replied: "Our people can't sneak inside, but they are all on guard and haven't seen him come out."
"Salt Gang... Ninth Palace... It's a pity that it can't be used by me, what a pity!" Xia Muyan frowned slightly and pursed his lips, as if he was weighing something.
He Fukai naturally understood what he meant. He came closer and asked, "My lord, do you want to take action?"
... ...
Xu Qianye had not been as happy as he was today for a long time. Not only did Zhang Suiguang, Yi Qilin, and Yun Xiaomeng all agree to go to Ruozhou to participate in the martial arts conference led by the Xu family, but he also met a young master with extremely high martial arts skills. Dozens of moves, the one that made him happiest was this snow bird of prey.
After only borrowing it for a day, he felt that the snow bird was already his close friend.
However, when he thought that he had borrowed the horse and would have to exchange it for it soon, he felt panicked. On the way to the branch of Wangzhaixing Pavilion in Prince Jaw Mansion, he kept thinking, "There must be some excuse for him to give me this snowy bird of prey."
Before he could think of a solution, An Ruqing's courtyard arrived.
"Is the matter done?" Before Xu Jinye entered the yard, he heard An Ruqing's voice coming from inside.
Normally, he didn't think so, but now he felt that the crows of crows sounded better than that, and he couldn't help but cursed a few times in his heart, "You bastard An Ruqing, you tricked my sister into marrying you, and you came to steal my horse." !" Completely forgetting that it was this "bastard" brother-in-law who hurriedly sent the secret letter from Zhaixing Pavilion to help him accomplish the important things of this trip.
Xu Jinye walked into the yard, ignoring An Ruqing who was practicing swordplay, and went straight to the pavilion to sit down. I saw some preserved fruits and cakes there, so I picked them up and ate them. After a busy day and night, he was already very hungry.
After finishing the plate to the bottom, he walked out of the pavilion, walked to the opposite side of An Ruqing, and said with a smile, "I'm here to make a deal with you!"
