Volume 2 Ji Hui Ningdu Chapter 317 The Secret of the Xiao Clan
Ningdu, Jingzhong Street, Xiao Mansion.
The people living on the whole street are all descendants of the Xuanyuan Palace Guards, but after the Ming family entered Ningdu, the descendants of the soldiers living on this street secretly took refuge in the Ming family, and the word Jingzhong has also become a big irony.
The whole street was dark, after all, it was so late, and most of the people had already fallen asleep.
Only in this mansion of Xiao Mansion, there are a few rooms that have not turned off the lights.
In the study of the Xiao Mansion, a man in red brocade sat quietly in front of the desk, and under the desk was an old man in a wheelchair.
This old man is the owner of the Xiao Mansion, Xiao Xuan.
Xiao Xuan is only in his forties, but there are already some old age lines on his forehead, he looks very old between his eyebrows, and there are a few strands of silver faintly visible between his loose hair.
"Discovered?"
"Yes...... If the Dark Guard is discovered, there is probably no chance of escape. ”
The man in the red brocade looked at Xiao Xuan and said, "Haven't you found the person yet?" ”
"Your Highness, the old man has sent more than thirty secret guards, follow the clues they left behind to search, and now he has not come back to restore his life, according to the past situation, if the dark guards find nothing, they will definitely come back to restore their lives. In the current situation, either the secret guard has found someone, or it is ......"
"We only have three days left. If you can't find it within three days, then everyone will die together! The man stood up and was about to leave.
"Your Highness!" Xiao Xuan stopped him.
"Xiao Xuan, if people don't find it, let's ...... There will be no place to die! This, you know, right? ”
"Yes, the old man knows."
"So what?"
"Can Your Highness give this girl to the old man?"
"How?" The man asked, standing up, turning his head slightly.
"That girl is Yue Panlong's daughter, right?" Xiao Xuan asked softly.
The man turned around completely, slowly walked to Xiao Xuan, stared at Xiao Xuan's old face with a pair of eyes, and suddenly showed a hint of evil smile, "Xiao Xuan, Xiao Xuan, you old immortal thing, you are just a dog of my Ming clan!" Who are you to bargain with me? ”
"Your Highness really can't be perfected?" Xiao Xuan's face flushed, obviously a little annoyed.
"I can't."
"Why? Lao Yu took the Xiao family to His Royal Highness, doesn't His Highness know what Lao Yu is for? Xiao Xuan's face was a little ugly and asked.
"Ahem......" He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his body, and couldn't help coughing, he covered his mouth with his hand, trying to make himself cough less painful.
"Daddy!" At this moment, a young man came out of the corner of the study and rushed to Xiao Xuan's side with an anxious face.
"What are you? Do your own thing, otherwise, I can't guarantee that you will see the sun tomorrow! The man said coldly, turned around and strode away.
Xiao Xuan's face turned red, and his fists clenched in a creaking sound.
The anxious look on his face eased a little, and he picked up the black porcelain bottle and came to Xiao Xuan's side, then took out the wooden cork of the porcelain bottle and poured it into the palm of his hand.
However, after pouring it several times, nothing came out.
Xiao Xuan stopped coughing, took his hand away, spread his palm, and there was a dazzling blood red in his palm, and there was blood stains on the corners of his mouth.
"Dad, you're coughing up blood again!" The man said anxiously, running towards the desk, rummaging through the cabinets and finding a black porcelain vase.
"Dad, it can't be! There were still ...... last month How could there be none!"
After all, the porcelain vase still didn't pour out anything, he threw the porcelain vase aside, and said anxiously, "Dad, you hold on, I'll ask for medicine!" I'm going to ask for medicine! ”
His face became anxious again, and he frantically poured into the palm of his hand, "What's the matter, what about medicine!" Medicine! ”
"Ahem...... Xiao Xuan coughed again, blood coughed up directly from his mouth, his face was already very ugly, and he said weakly to the man, "Man'er, don't bother, medicine..... It's already eaten. ”
Seeing this, Xiao Man hurriedly ran back and helped Xiao Xuan up.
"Dad, hold on, I will be able to save you! You wait here, I'll go to the palace to ask for medicine! The King of Zhongshan has woken up and can give us medicine! ”
After saying that, he turned around and ran out of the study.
"Man'er...... Man'er, don't go! It's useless! Xiao Xuan stopped him and was about to get up and pull him back, but he fell off the wheelchair and fell heavily to the ground.
"Man'er, haven't you always wanted to know what the hell is going on? Daddy will tell you ...... now."
In the 900th year of the Xia calendar, Xiao Xuan had just taken over the position of the lieutenant of Ningdu Pujiamen from his father, and Ningdu was under the control of the Ming family, and most of the people had already thrown themselves into the Ming family, but the Xiao family was still a small family, so they naturally refused to succumb to the Ming family.
Xiao Xuan grabbed Xiao Man's hand and said weakly, "It's useless, Man'er, don't go over and beg him." You listen to your father......"
Xiao Man's eyes were already full of tears, and he said, "Dad, ...... you say?"
found out that it was the two mansions of the Zhongshan Ming family, and he immediately ordered his men to go down to fetch water to extinguish the fire.
However, as soon as he appeared at the door of the mansion, he saw Ming Heng, who was still the prince of Zhongshan at the time, standing at the door of the two mansions with more than 100 people.
On one night, Xiao Xuan was on duty, leading dozens of people to patrol the night.
Suddenly, seeing the direction of a certain street in Suzaku City, he hurriedly led someone to check the situation.
Xiao Xuan was very puzzled when he saw Ming Heng stop him.
He remembered very clearly that these two mansions should belong to the Ming family's property, and they lived in them Ming Yuyao, the most beloved princess of the King of Zhongshan at that time.
And there were screams from inside the house, as if they had been burned by fire.
"Captain Xiao, what are you going to do?" Ming Heng saw Xiao Xuan with his subordinates, holding buckets and running towards the mansion, so he led someone to stop him.
"Is there one? Xiao Duwei heard it wrong, right? Ming Heng said, his eyes staring at Xiao Xuan with a vague hint of warning.
Looking at the soldiers behind Ming Heng, Xiao Xuan knew that if he insisted on saving people, it was not certain whether he could save them, and he might not be able to break through Ming Heng's obstruction.
Why did Ming Heng take so many people, not to bring himself not to fight the fire, but also to prevent others from fighting the fire.
"Your Highness, this courtyard is on fire, if you don't put out the fire, it will all burn down! Moreover, I also heard a cry for help in the courtyard of the house. Xiao Xuan was still enthusiastic at that time, and their Xiao family did not take refuge in the Ming family, but spoke up.
Although he left, the screams in the courtyard still echoed in his ears, and he could not disperse for a long time.
So he returned to the vicinity of the two mansions alone, and took advantage of Ming Heng's lack of attention, sneaked into the burning mansion, and also took advantage of the chaos to look inside.
He knew that this fire must have been set by Ming Heng.
"Oh, that's because I misheard." Xiao Xuan ordered his subordinates to put down the bucket and leave.
It's just that Ming Yuyao didn't know that the fire in the mansion was set by the Ming family, and Xiao Xuan naturally couldn't say it, after all, he had no evidence to prove that the fire was set by Ming Heng.
The reason why Ming Heng set the fire was also instructed by his father.
Finally, he found a surviving woman inside, and this woman was Ming Yuyao, the most beloved princess of the King of Zhongshan.
After rescuing Ming Yuyao, he secretly hid Ming Yuyao in the Xiao Mansion.
At that time, the innate fivefold was a rare existence, and the Ming clan naturally wanted to take it under his command.
However, how could such a master be willing to succumb to the hands of the Ming clan, so naturally he did not agree.
It turned out that a Jianghu ranger named Yue Panlong had recently come to Ningdu.
Yue Panlong is not from Ningdu, and he has the strength of the innate fivefold.
When the Ming family wanted to talk to Yue Panlong about the two getting married, Yue Panlong refused.
And when the Ming family asked the reason, they knew the secret hidden in Yue Panlong's body.
So, Ming Heng suggested to the then King of Zhongshan that he use the beauty trick to let Ming Yuyao, the nineteenth princess of the Ming family, "meet" Yue Panlong.
Sure enough, the two got to know each other so "reasonably", and King Zhongshan also gave the two mansions to Yue Panlong and Ming Yuyao.
Yue Panlong sewed this martial art into the meridians, only when it was greatly stimulated, causing Yue Panlong's qi and blood to flow backwards.
This martial art will fall out of the meridians, and only by picking up its blood and bones can this martial art be learned.
It turned out that the reason why Yue Panlong was so strong was because he had cultivated a martial art, and as long as he cultivated this martial art, he would be able to reach the innate very quickly.
At that time, it was so rare for a congenital master to get this martial art, and after several inquiries, the Ming clan finally knew the secret.
Only when Yue Panlong discovers that his beloved has died will he be stimulated.
And when Yue Panlong found out that the house was burning, he was really stimulated.
Yue Panlong was unwilling to hand over this martial art, so Ming Heng came up with a poisonous plan, that is, to stimulate Yue Panlong.
So, there was a fire to the house.
Since Ming Yuyao was rescued by Xiao Xuan, and Yue Panlong refused to marry Ming Yuyao, King Zhongshan invited Xiao Xuan to Zhongshan Palace, intending to let Ming Yuyao marry Xiao Xuan, so as to stimulate Yue Panlong again.
It's just that Xiao Xuan was also kept in the dark at that time, and he didn't know about Yue Panlong, so he naturally agreed.
Fortunately, after Ming Yuyao was rescued by Xiao Xuan, she appeared in front of Yue Panlong in time, so that Yue Panlong's qi and blood did not flow backwards.
King Zhongshan and Ming Heng saw that they couldn't make a plan, so they made another plan.
On the day of marriage, Xiao Xuan thought that he had saved Ming Yuyao, so he hugged the beauty.
On that day, he took the people of Xiao Mansion, put on new clothes, went to the palace, and married Ming Yuyao.
On that day, his life was turned upside down.
