Chapter 17 Causes

Thirteen cousins?

Tang Tang is really Du Rui's thirteenth cousin, not a joke to take advantage, it's just that their kinship has to go around several times, and the seventh aunt, the eighth aunt and the like are distant relatives among distant relatives.

Du Rui's mother is not surnamed Tang.

However, Du Rui's mother, Mrs. Shu's grandmother, is surnamed Tang, from the Tang family in Shu.

This old man and Tang Tang's great-grandmother are cousins, that is to say, Tang Tang's great-grandmother and Mrs. Shu's grandmother have a common grandfather, because Tang Tang is the thirteenth in her generation, so she said that she is Du Rui's thirteenth cousin, there is nothing wrong.

Frowning slightly, Du Rui slowly paced back and forth in the courtyard.

This is a rich merchant's courtyard, located in Wannian County, the courtyard wall is towering, there are three zhang high, it is also isolated from the sight of outsiders, there is a pavilion in the courtyard, the pavilion is located in the water pavilion, below is a lotus pond, the green lotus leaf pavilion, the red lotus flower is in full bloom, the breeze comes slowly, from time to time disappears, there is no leisure.

Coming to the pavilion and looking at the lotus, Du Rui took a deep breath.

Last night, Tang Tang used his true qi to open up Du Rui's meridians.

Not only the injured left meridian, but also the twelve meridians and the eight meridians of the Qi meridian all over his body were all passed by Tang Tang's innate true qi, and in this way, the meridians became wider.

Du Rui suffered a lot of crimes, and it could have ended in half an hour, but it dragged on all night.

Thinking of Tang Tang's smile, it's hard to say that this is not her bad taste.

Of course, Du Rui has gained more, and if he cultivates in the future, once the true qi enters the meridians, he will not encounter too many blockages, and the speed of the flow will become extremely fast, and the time to run for a week will be much less than that of others.

For this, Tang Tang also sacrificed a lot.

After finishing the work, his face was as pale as paper, although his smile was still so chic and uninhibited, his face was full of fatigue, and the tiredness in his eyes could not be concealed.

If you want to open up a person's whole body meridians, even if you are a congenital master, it is not an easy task.

Why?

Why, exactly?

Is it really just because of the kinship that can't be beaten by eight poles?

When he was an infant, Du Rui's mother would occasionally talk to herself beside him, telling her childhood past, Du Rui had the impression that her mother and grandmother died at the hands of the enemy when they were very young.

Later, Du Rui's grandfather wandered around with his daughter, hiding from the enemy.

At that time, the Tang Sect did not come forward to help.

Why?

Mrs. Shu herself didn't know, and Du Rui didn't understand it either.

Later, in a chase by the enemy, Du Rui's grandfather was seriously injured, so he entrusted Mrs. Shu, who was still a child, to a family in the Sword Pavilion, who later came to Yizhou.

After that, it is the draft girl who enters the palace.

Originally, the daughter of that family was on the list of conscriptions, and in order not to want her daughter to enter the palace, the host family accepted Du Rui's mother as a righteous daughter, and finally, let her go to Chang'an to be a palace maid instead of her daughter.

At that time, when he was hunted down, Tang Men did not come out.

also allowed Du Rui's mother to live alone under the fence, and finally, as a substitute into the court, these days, has never come forward, never contacted Mrs. Shu.

Why is it appearing now?

Du Rui couldn't figure it out.

If he wasn't the prince of the Tang Dynasty, would this thirteenth aunt be so kind to save her life?

Du Rui will inevitably think so.

Without waiting for Du Rui to ask, Tang Tang took the initiative to mention the reason.

Decades ago, the queen of heaven was old, her reign had entered an advanced stage, and the Du royal family was preparing to counterattack the throne, and a bloody storm would soon be staged. At that time, Shu was also divided into two factions, the Jiannan Dao Jiedu envoy was the family of the Queen of Heaven, and the Yizhou Thorn Shi was a member of the Du royal family. At that time, people on both sides were ready to compete for power and gain from each other, and they would not back down.

Once the queen of heaven dies, Shu will definitely be in chaos, and it is inevitable that the two sides will fight.

At this time, there were also disagreements in the Tang Sect in Shuzhong.

One of the factions suggested standing on the side of the Queen of Heaven's mother's family, assisting the other party to suppress the Du royal family's faction, borrowing chickens and eggs, so that the Tang Sect forces could see the light of day again, with the help of the Tang Sect, most of the Shu land snakes would also follow and stand in line, so that an overwhelming trend would also be formed. Even if the Queen of Heaven clan fails in Chang'an, as long as they close the Sword Pavilion, they will be able to divide Shuzhong.

The other faction disapproves and hopes to continue to hibernate, recuperate, and sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight.

If the queen of heaven's mother's family wins, usurps the throne successfully, replaces the Tang Empire, changes the name of the country, and may not be able to tolerate the Tang Sect's occupation of Shuzhong, when the time comes, the birds will be exhausted, the lackeys will hide, and their own power will be completely exposed, and it is very likely to be wiped out by the other party, so they must not act rashly.

A strong party is the right way, and opportunism is unacceptable.

The two factions were not in harmony with each other, first they fought and debated with each other, and later, they developed into martial arts.

Du Rui's ancestors were victims of civil strife, her parents died, and her daughter was hastily sent out to marry someone else, and the reason why she was able to achieve such an ending was also because her parents were on the side of the victor.

At that time, civil strife caused the strength of the Tang Sect to collapse.

At this time, the mountain had to be closed and entered the second low tide period.

The first low tide period occurred when the Tang army entered Shu, and had to abandon the royal court, sneak into the people, and hide in the market like a mouse, and the second low tide period is not much better than it.

There are many foreign forces that have taken advantage of the situation, such as the Tianlong Temple in the Nanzhao Kingdom.

There are also many local gangs that have grown, such as the Emei and Qingcheng factions, as well as the Pai Jiao who had been relying on the Tang family before.

At that time, the rivers and lakes in Shu were very chaotic, and there was an endless stream of conquests against each other, and Mrs. Shu's mother and grandmother also died in the hands of the enemy, this matter has been a long time, when the Tang Sect recovered its strength, slowly poked out its tentacles, and wanted to find back the people who left the family during the civil strife, this was the case, and then, all the way to the pursuit, avenged his family, and also found Du Rui's grandfather.

His maternal grandfather had broken a leg and became disabled.

After that, I found that family, and I knew the whereabouts of Du Rui's mother, which was more than a year ago.

The Tang Sect is strong in Shuzhong, well-informed, after the Qinling Mountains, to the Guanzhong Plain, the strength has been greatly reduced, and there are only a few strongholds, the situation in the Daming Palace, even if there is a lot of information, it is just a flower in the fog and the moon, and I don't know if it's true or not.

Half a year ago, they learned that Du Rui's mother had become Mrs. Shu, and they also got in touch with Mrs. Shu.

They also knew about Du Rui's existence.

Yesterday, Tang Tang said.

She came to Chang'an this time for Du Rui, and the assassination of Xue Zhuo was just a convenient one.

Tang Tang ranked thirteenth in the Tang Sect in Shuzhong, but his mother was from the South China Sea, since she was a child, she has studied both at the same time, because of her amazing talent, this can step into the congenital at the age of less than thirty.

has become a congenital master, whether in the court or in the rivers and lakes, it can be regarded as first-class.

In addition to the Eight Methods of Qinglian, there is also a technique in the South China Sea, called Bihai Chaosheng, which is a sound skill that can capture people's souls, and on the contrary, it can also treat the so-called soul-losing disease, which can bring back the souls of soul-lost people.

This is the reason why Tang Tang came to Chang'an as soon as he came out of the customs and returned to the Central Plains.

Whether it is Tangmen or Mrs. Shu, they all hope that Du Rui's soul loss will be cured.

After knowing this task, Tang Tang was a little excited.

Because she knew that the practice of Bihai Chaosheng had been exaggerated a lot, and it was very easy for those who had shallow cultivation to lose their souls, however, it was even more difficult to return the souls of the lost souls, and over the years, there were only one or two cases, and there were countless cases of failure, but it was not spread, at most it was just to make the mad people calm down a little.

However, since he has come, Tang Tang also wants to meet Du Rui.

Perhaps, there will be a miracle?

No, she hadn't gone to Xuanzhen Temple yet, and when she assassinated Xue Zhuo, she bumped into Du Rui, and when she heard the eunuch shouting Handanjun's name, Tang Tang's mind at that time was also a little confused.

She couldn't let him die.

The hope of the restoration of the Tang Sect is also pinned on Du Rui.

This is a cunning child!

Little did anyone know that his soul loss had been cured.

Du Rui didn't know what Tang Tang was thinking, but he guessed that it was nothing more than mutual use, and the only person he could be used by those guys was this identity!

We'll see......

There was a sound of footsteps ringing in his ears, and Du Rui turned his head.

A middle-aged man with a dark complexion, long hands and long feet, wearing a short black shirt, walked over, stopped outside the pavilion from a distance, and then bowed down to Du Rui.

"Young master, the frame is ready, please go back!"

This is a three-entry courtyard, the courtyard is located in the back of the entrance, there are not many servants in the house, there are two gatekeepers, there are grooms, there are gardeners, there are maidservants, there are healthy servants......

These people, without exception, are all practitioners.

Under Tang Tang's orders, they all called Du Rui a young master.

In the early hours of this morning, Tang Tang left.

She asked her subordinates to prepare the frame to send Du Rui back to Xuanzhen Temple, but she didn't know where to go, of course, before leaving, she told Du Rui that it wouldn't be long before she would go to visit him.

She wants to teach Du Rui the technique of Bihai Chao Shengdu.

This is because last night, Du Rui was in a coma twice.

It's not that she can't bear the pain of opening up the meridians, but the automatic protection of the brain, of course, in Tang Tang's opinion, this is because Du Rui's soul loss is not a good reason, after all, she also knew from Du Rui that Mrs. Shu passed away.

It was such a strong stimulus in the Danfeng Hall that Du Rui woke up like a big dream.

After all, there are still sequelae.

The courtyard was very quiet, only the rustling of footsteps, and there was no one along the way.

After a while, he came to a corner door, walked out of the corner gate, there was a carriage in the alley outside, Du Rui got into the carriage with the support of the man in black, and then, the carriage was lined with trees, shaking and leaving the house.
