943 Sacrifice, there is no good for no reason
The Hua family made no secret of their importance to Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, and as soon as the carriage arrived outside the gate of the Hua Mansion, the door of the Hua family opened, and the Hua family even came out to greet them in person. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
If it were someone else, seeing that the Hua family valued it so much, he would inevitably feel proud, and a sense of superiority would quietly arise, but Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu would not, the two of them knew their identity and status in the empire very well.
No matter how detached the status of the two of them is in Dongwen, when they reach the empire, they are only a little better than ordinary people at most, and they can't afford to be so valued by the Hua family at all.
Seeing the Hua family master standing at the door, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu glanced at each other, the two stepped forward, and without waiting for the Hua family to speak, Xiao Tianyao took the first step and said: "Hua Shao, we can't afford you to value it so much." ”
Although, with the value of the Hua family, it will be much more convenient for them in the empire, but the Hua family has done too much, so that they can't feel at ease.
In this world, there is no good for no reason, the more they get now, the more they may pay in the future.
Although they are involved with the Great Prince, they do not want to be involved with the rest of the Empire, especially the various families of the Empire.
"It's not up to you to afford it, it's our Hua family who has the final say, my father and mother are waiting for the two in the flower hall, please ......" Not only the Hua family, but also the head and wife of the Hua family, it can be seen how high the Hua family's specifications are for receiving Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, but the more so Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu are more uneasy.
However, the Hua family was obviously reluctant to say more, or he didn't know that Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were in vain even if they wanted to ask.
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu looked at each other silently and didn't say anything.
Regardless of the future, they have come here, and there is simply no way back for them.
The Hua family is one of the seven great families of the empire, even in the imperial capital where every inch of land is valuable, the house is very spacious, looking at the least, there are hundreds of acres, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu sat in a carriage, and walked for a quarter of an hour before walking from the door to the main courtyard.
After getting out of the carriage, Hua Jinrong led the way for the two of them in front, and from time to time introduced the scenery of the Hua family to Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu only listened to it.
The group soon arrived at the flower hall, and a steward greeted them at the door early, and when they saw Hua Jinrong, Xiao Tianyao, and Lin Chujiu, they hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Young Master, these two must be King Xiao and Princess Xiao of Dongwen, right?" Sure enough, it is a dragon and phoenix among people. ”
The one who spoke was an elderly grandmother, who looked very kind, and was very respectful to Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.
No matter what the Hua family has in mind, it is really comfortable to do this.
"The master has been waiting for the two, the two of you, please." Mama smiled and welcomed the three of them into the house.
In the house, the head of the Hua family and the wife of the head of the family sat on the main seat, and when they saw Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu coming in, they nodded implicitly, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu took the initiative to salute the two, but as soon as they bent down, the two of them said kindly: "Don't be polite, you two are the life-saving benefactors of my Xiao Jiu, please sit down." ”
A life-saving benefactor seems to explain why the Hua family treats the two of them well, but Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu still have doubts in their hearts, but they don't show it on their faces.
"Don't be a life-saving benefactor from Mrs., everything is just a coincidence, the ninth prince can turn the danger into a disaster, it is the luck of the ninth prince." Xiao Tianyao opened his mouth lightly, and once again rejected the life-saving benefactor.
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu have never regarded themselves as the life-saving benefactors of the Hua family, and they themselves used this matter and asked the Hua family for help, how are they qualified to say that they are the life-saving benefactors of Hua Jiushao, and ask the Hua family to always be good to them?
"The two of them are really as good as Da Lang said." Seeing Xiao Tianyao's calm expression, the head of the Hua family was even more satisfied, neither excited nor nervous.
obviously has the opportunity to climb the family of the empire, but these two do not have a trace of heart, it can be seen that both the heart and character are not bad, and there will definitely not be much problem when introduced to the Dongyang family.
That's right, the Hua family values Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu so much, and constantly gives face to the two, except for the life-saving benefactor, more because the Dongyang family wants to meet Lin Chujiu and wants to ask Lin Chujiu to heal his legs for the eldest son of the Dongyang family.
The eldest son of the Dongyang family was crippled in both legs ten years ago, and the world's famous doctors were ineffective, including the famous ink doctor of the four countries, and the Dongyang family also invited him, but they were all useless.
Originally, the Dongyang family would not have noticed Lin Chujiu, but they coincidentally learned that Lin Chujiu not only had medical skills above the ink god doctor, but also might have the special bloodline of the imperial Lin family.
I don't know if it's God's favor for the Lin family or the punishment of the Lin family, every one or two generations of the Lin family, there will be a person of the blood of the sacrificer.
This "sacrifice" refers to the meaning of sacrifice, that is to say, by sacrificing this clansman, the Lin family can help the seriously ill person continue his life, transfer the serious illness of that person to himself, and the person of the blood of the sacrificer will bear the pain and die on his behalf.
Yes, the sacrificial bloodline is also defective, and he can only help the seriously ill to continue their lives, but he cannot help the old and dead to continue their lives, nor can he bring the dead back to life.
In the previous generation, there was a sacrificial bloodline in the Lin family, and that person was Lin Chujiu's biological father, who was forced by the Lin family to sacrifice for today's saint, sacrificed his life, and saved today's saint.
A person who has the blood of the priest is generally unable to leave descendants, but if someone can leave descendants, his descendants must be the blood of the sacrificer.
The Lin family has thought of many ways to let the people of the sacrificial bloodline leave heirs, but they have not succeeded, so the sacrificial bloodline of the Lin family will come out again every two or three generations, but ......
For some reason, the bloodline of the previous priest actually left an heir, and if it was unexpected, Lin Chu inherited the bloodline of the sacrificer nine times out of ninety.
Although it is said that in addition to sacrificing a sacrificer, there is a huge price to be paid, but when life is threatened and it is not old and dead, there are still people who are willing to pay the price to continue their lives.
The Dongyang family naturally targeted Lin Chujiu for the sake of sacrifice, but what they wanted was not Lin Chujiu's life, they wanted to try the bloodline of the sacrificer, whether they could transfer the leg disease of the eldest young master to Lin Chujiu.
Of course, the Dongyang family will not ask Lin Chujiu to sacrifice as soon as they come up, they will salute first and then soldiers, and they will also give Lin Chujiu a chance to let Lin Chujiu heal his own family.
If Lin Chujiu can heal the eldest young master's leg is the best, if he can't heal it, the Dongyang family will definitely sacrifice and try whether this method is feasible.
As for paying the price?
The last thing the Dongyang family is afraid of is to pay the price, as long as Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu are willing, they can pay any price, even if it is to help Xiao Tianyao seize the throne.
However, these Hua family members don't know, and the Hua family knows only the Hua family owner, as for everyone else, they all think that the Hua family owner treats the two so well because he is grateful to Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu for saving Hua Jiushao's life.
After all, the Lin family was very tightly covered by the sacrificial bloodline, except for the head of each family, no one else knew about it, and even if they knew, they didn't know that Lin Chujiu had the sacrificial bloodline......
