Shui Han, Xiao Tian, and Zhong Shao were standing on the front terrace of the Confucian Hall. Their three pairs of eyes did not look at Xun Kuang, the majestic owner of Jingdi Village on the stone steps, but only stared at a slightly rickety figure in front of them. elder.
The old man is the eunuch in charge from King Yan's Palace. His name is Sixi. His status in King Yan's Palace can only be described in one sentence.
The old King Yan grew up with him.
And the eunuch in charge of Sixi came here just to find one person. That person was none other than the young man in red who was standing in front of him at this moment, Yi Shuihan.
"Um, I didn't quite understand just now. Father-in-law, are you sure you are talking about me?"
Father Si Xi looked at Shui Han, his face was filled with joy, and even those deep wrinkles seemed to have relaxed a lot.
He smiled and said:
"Yes, yes, the old slave is sure that you are Xiaoyi's son just by looking at the young master's features. Xiaoyi's father, Xiaoting, was once the general of our Yan Kingdom. He and our king are brothers with different surnames and share the same love.
Now that General Xiao has passed away long ago, his sword god son is also missing. Every time the king thinks about this, he sheds tears silently. The old slave feels distressed when he sees it.
I'm fine now, but I never thought that this bastard Xiaoyi would actually have a heir. I heard from Master Xun that you were going to Jicheng today, so I set off early and hurriedly came here just to come in person. I will take you to the palace to meet the king. "
Shui Han opened his mouth wide with a look of astonishment, and then looked at the old man Xun Kuang. He had a wicked smile on his face, as if his plot had succeeded.
The father of Sword God Xiaoyi is actually the general of the Yan Kingdom and a good brother of King Yan. The most ridiculous thing is, when did he become Xiaoyi's son?
No matter how he thought, all this was a conspiracy of Xun Kuang or Jingdi, but Shui Han couldn't figure it out. Could it be that all the Yan people were fools and he believed what others said?
You don't even need to check your background or anything like that. Just by looking up, you can find out, how could the waiting room of Zuixian Tower in Yishui Town be related to the General Sword God of the Yan Kingdom?
But the world is still so magical. Eunuch Sixi has no doubt about Shui Han's identity. No matter how Shui Han explains it, it's useless. In the end, considering that this identity seems to be good for him to get the Yaoming Order, he doesn't go there. Tangled, he got on the carriage in one stride.
As for Xun Kuang in the Confucian Palace, he was very happy.
"Dad, are you being a little too naughty?"
Xun Ge was a little helpless, "You clearly know that Shui Han is not Xiaoyi's son at all, why would you spread that kind of news to Yan State?"
"Nonsense? That's not true. Isn't that kid going to Jicheng to find Yaoming Ling? I'm just going with the flow and giving him a convenient identity. Besides, as a descendant of the general, maybe he can really catch big people in the Yan Kingdom. fish."
"Sure enough, you still used Shuihan as bait, wanting to find out the truth about King Yan."
Xun Kuang did not respond to Xun Ge's words, but instead said:
"Xiao Ge, what do you think about the killer named Qiu Ying in the Ghostly Dead Sea?"
"You mean his Chengying?"
Xun Kuang nodded. Eleven of the Thirteen Blades in Canling were recovered by the Yuling Palace and kept in the Yuling Palace. Later, the swords were distributed to the original aristocratic families.
If the aristocratic family cannot be found, Yulingdian will choose a capable and virtuous person to teach him the sword, or directly seal it.
Among them, only Jiu Dao is an exception, because Yulingdian believed that no one in the Oni clan at that time was qualified to hold the Fei of Oni Ren, so it awarded the Fei to the powerful Jiu Dao.
When Jiu Dao accepted Gui Gu under his sect, he not only took a fancy to Gui Gu's talent, but also intended to complete the inheritance. Passing Yu Yu to Gui Gu could be regarded as a perfect and beautiful thing, but he didn't want Gui Gu to suffer from it now. Something so weird happened,
It can be seen that most things in this world cannot be perfect.
Xun Ge sighed and said:
"I remember that because Yu Ling Lan was trained by Yu Ling Hall herself, and her Cheng Ying was found by herself, Cheng Ying was not sent out, but stayed in Yu Ling Hall.
As for why it came into the hands of the killer named Qiu Ying, it is unknown. Is there really someone who can steal Cheng Ying from the Yuling Palace? "
Xun Kuang also sighed. He touched his short white beard and said:
"There's something you may not know yet. Even the person at the Yuling Palace doesn't know about the theft of Cheng Ying."
"What, even Sen Luo can't detect it? Who is that person who stole the sword?"
"Don't you think it's interesting?"
"interesting?"
"Yes, wherever Shuihan has been, there will always be some elusive and mysterious figures. So what interesting things will happen in Jicheng, the capital of Yan this time?"
Xun Kuang looked outside the hall. The five entrance gates divided the scenery outside the hall into five equal parts, and each part showed some different colors.
The carriage drove on the spacious and flat official road, which was surrounded by green mountains and green trees. You could occasionally hear the shouts of woodcutters in the forest, revealing a little bit of the simplicity of the people.
Shuihan, Xiaotian, and Young Master Zhong were sitting in the carriage, while Eunuch Sixi was driving outside. Unexpectedly, the old eunuch who lived in the palace was very familiar with setting up a carriage.
Regarding what happened just now, Shui Han still didn't understand. How did Xun Kuang make them believe that he was Xiaoyi's son?
"That father-in-law." Shui Han asked tentatively, "How did you know that I am Xiaoyi's son?"
Eunuch Sixi smiled and said:
"The giant sword of Xiaoyi boy has always only obeyed the master's call. Now the giant sword recognizes the master and obeys the master's call. Isn't this enough to explain your identity, master?"
Shui Han suddenly realized that it was because of Juzi, but to be honest, the matter of Juzi was completely arranged by that boy Zhongluan. Now that Zhongluan has disappeared, he himself is really unable to explain himself.
Chong Luan was just his imaginary partner. Even if he was still here, these things would still be blamed on Shui Han.
Alas, why are you living such a psychedelic life these days?
Shui Han laughed at himself bitterly in his heart.
"Since the young master is going to Jicheng, I would like to tell you about the situation in the royal city."
Naturally, Eunuch Sixi could not guess Shui Han's bitterness, so he began to speak to himself,
"Old King Xi of Yan is now nearly sixty years old. He has a son and a daughter. The son's name is Dan. He is now a hostage in the Qin State and is known for his talent. On the list of talented people circulated in the world, our prince ranks eighth. ,
The girl's name is Qing, and she is Nianfang Doumou. She lives deep in the palace and rarely goes out, but she has a good reputation. The princes and princes who came to ask for Princess Qing almost broke down the gates of the palace, but so far no one has One that caught Princess Qing's eye. "
When Eunuch Sixi spoke of Prince Dan, his tone was very proud, and when he spoke of Princess Qing, he was even more fond of it. It seemed that the eunuch in charge, who grew up with the old King Yan, had already regarded Yan as The Wang family regards them as their own family.
Shui Han heard these words, Master Zhong also heard them, but Xiaotian heard them in his heart and picked up some clues.
Although the current times are chaotic and rituals have collapsed, the rituals and laws in the palaces of various kings are still relatively sound.
As Xiaotian knows, the names of ministers in this country must be taboo. The taboo means to avoid the surnames and first names of the kings when naming, so as not to conflict with the royal court.
But the old King Yan's name is Xi, and Eunuch Sixi's name also contains Xi. I am afraid that the status of this eunuch in charge is more noble than imagined. He is so noble that he does not need to avoid King Yan. Name taboo.
It’s been a long journey.
