Chapter 6: The Deceased
The next day, Xuan Xuan summoned several elders of Xuan Jia to explain the cause of the matter and discuss the succession of Ying Luo's mother, many elders were shocked by the theft of Yu Huan and the disappearance of the queen, some of the elders blamed Xuan Xuan for poor guarding, and another part of the elders expressed their expectations for Xuan Xuan, Xuan Xuan was the protector chosen by Yu Xuan, and they hoped that Xuan Xuan could recapture Yu Huan as soon as possible and find Yu Linlang. In this way, the elders of the two sides argued until sunset, and everything came to fruition. In the end, the elders of the clan agreed that Yingluo's mother would take over the queen's throne, and said that they would also help the new queen to calm the people's hearts.
When Xuan Xuan returned to the dormitory after ordering the cleaning of the wreckage of the Jade God Temple, it was already dark. I thought that I would pack my bags tomorrow and set off the day after tomorrow.
The next morning, while Xuan Xuan was still sleeping, Yingluo broke in: "Princess, princess, get up quickly! The palace broke into a man clamoring to see the queen." β
Xuanxuan, who was hiding in the quilt, poked her head out of the quilt: "Who did you say broke in?
"This morning a man from Edgeworth went straight to the palace, and the guards couldn't stop him, he shouted to see the queen, and now Changyun is holding a sword to stop him! β
After hearing this, Xuan Xuan hurriedly got up, got dressed and ran out without freshening up. Outside her mother's bedroom, she saw a man in a white robe and Chang Yun fighting inextricably, Xuan Xuan watched carefully next to her for a while and found that the two were somewhat similar in swordsmanship, just like a teacher from the same school, but the man in gray robe had more swordsmanship than Chang Yun.
After a few rounds, the gray-robed one was even better, he put away his sword and said to Chang Yun: "Boy, you are also a disciple of the Firmament, and your swordsmanship is good!"
Chang Yun also withdrew his sword and replied: "I am the outer disciple of the Qiongyu Sect Chang Qingzhen, and the predecessor is also the Qiongyu Sword Technique, I don't know who the predecessor is?"
"It turned out to be the apprentice of Uncle Changqing, fortunately, I will be lucky! No wonder the swordsmanship at a young age is so good, I am Changyun, the eldest disciple of the current head of the Qiongyu Changkong Zhenren, you and my master are senior brothers, so you can call me senior brother. β
"Alright, alright! stop talking nonsense. Seeing that the two of them were about to chat, Xuan Xuan hurriedly interrupted them. "Even if you want to see my mother, what is your relationship with my mother? What are you looking for her?"
As soon as Xuan Xuan finished speaking, he saw that the man named Changyun's eyes widened, and he walked quickly towards Xuan Xuan, "Your queen mother, are you Linlang's daughter?"
Xuan Xuan looked at him strangely and replied, "Yes, I am Xuan Xuan, the daughter of Xuan Linlang." As soon as the words fell, Changyun excitedly put his hands on Xuanxuan's shoulders and looked Xuanxuan up and down, his eyes were full of tears. Yingluo, who was standing next to her, felt strange and looked at Changyun, who shrugged her shoulders and said she didn't know.
Xuan Xuan took a step back and looked at him, "You...... Who is it?"
Changyun watched Xuan Xuan retreat, and withdrew his hand embarrassedly, "I am the deceased of your mother, what about your mother?"
"My mother is missing. Xuan Xuan said with a complicated expression.
"Missing! It seems that I expected it right, Linlang really had an accident! That's why she released the spirit bird to report to me. β
"Tell the news!Did she report to you before she disappeared?" Chang Yun and Xuan Xuan glanced at each other and asked in unison.
Changyun looked at them and said: "The day before yesterday, I suddenly saw the letter spirit bird released by Linlang, I guessed that something might have happened to her, 16 years, Linlang has cut off contact with me for 16 years, if it wasn't for what happened, Linlang would not have released the letter spirit bird to find me." β
Listening to Changyun's words, Xuan Xuan suddenly trembled and took a few steps back, "Before my mother was taken away, she used her spiritual power to conjure a spirit bird to inform you, why......? You are...... My father?" Xuan Xuan's voice trembled.
The few people next to them all looked at Xuan Xuan in shock, and then looked at Changyun.
Changyun looked at Xuan Xuan and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and he stopped talking, which was acquiescence.
"Oh my God, you're the princess's father!" the ...... who hasn't shown up in 16 years," Yingluo exclaimed, and Lile next to her tugged at her sleeve to tell her to shut up.
Tears had already flowed down Xuan Xuan's cheeks, and she choked up and said to Changyun: "I haven't appeared for 16 years, why do you appear now? Why wait until the queen mother disappears before you come? Is it that if you don't see the spirit bird, you won't appear in your life?" Since I was a child, they said that my father died of illness, but the queen mother never mentioned the father who died, and never took me to worship, I believe that my father must still be alive, so after being sensible, I forced the clan to ask the clan who my father was, although I knew the truth, but none of the people of the Jijia tribe could say why, they only knew that the queen mother left the jade capital 17 years ago to travel, a year later she returned to the jade capital, I was born a few months later, but the queen mother did not mention the child's father, for the sake of the face of the Jijia royal family, the Jijia royal family announced that the queen's husband was seriously ill and died. When I was 5 years old, I asked my mother why they all said that my father had died, why I didn't have a father, was it because I didn't want my father to do me? The queen mother told me that my father didn't want me, he only had a lot of things to do, and these things were so important that he couldn't come to see me. I was woken up by the thunder that night, and when I woke up, I found that the queen mother was not by my side, I cried and got out of bed to find the queen mother, but found the queen mother standing by the door of the temple looking at the ruby ring on her hand and crying, that was the first time I saw the queen cry in my memory, I think it must be my daytime question that made her think of her father sad, from that day on, I never asked my mother about my father, and when I grew up, I was even more afraid to ask, not only afraid of the queen mother's sadness, I think I was more afraid of hearing the queen mother say that in fact, my father does not want us anymore, or my father is really no longer aliveγ β
Changyun wanted to wipe away the tears on Xuan Xuan's face, but Xuan Xuan turned his head sideways to dodge, and he sighed: "I just turned 16 years old, and the master asked me to go down the mountain to experience a year of training, and then I left the top of the sky, and then I met your mother, and we fell in love like this when we were young." I gave her the red spirit stone I had accidentally obtained in a ring as a token of love, but I didn't know that it was a promise for her life, and we were really happy at that time. I don't want her to be summoned by your grandmother's spiritual power a year later to urge her to return to Yudu to succeed to the throne, she wants me to go back to Yudu with her, but the Jijia clan is a matrilineal clan, how could I agree, I am young and proud, that was our first quarrel, I said angrily that the one-year deadline given to me by my master has arrived, I would rather go back to the top of the sky, and cut off the seven emotions and six desires, and don't go to the jade capital and can't lift the man's head, I left without looking back, regardless of your mother's cry behind me, I don't know how long she waited for me in the same place, but I resolutely did not go back to find her, and then she returned to the jade capital, but your grandmother has passed awayγ I think that's why Linlang hasn't seen me for 16 years, because she waited for me in the same place but caused herself to miss the last meeting with her mother. I didn't know she was pregnant when I left, and I see you today......"
But you didn't know you had a daughter, and you can't blame you for not looking for a princess for so many years. Yingluo couldn't help but interject again.
Xuan Xuan wiped away her tears and looked directly at Changyun's eyes: "Back then, you abandoned my mother for the so-called self-esteem, do you think that now a few words can make me forgive you for 16 years of ignorance? Impossible, for the sake of you being an elder, I will call you Dad, but don't think that this is to forgive you, you have to find my mother and ask her for forgiveness." "When I finally saw my father, who had been thinking about me from a careful heart, I was more than to blame, of course, more joyful.
Changyun was of course extremely happy, "I will find Linlang to ask her for forgiveness, I have thought it clear for so many years, I left Linlang under the pretext of not being a reason, and I will use the rest of my life to make up for my mistakes over the years." β
Chang Yun, who had been listening quietly next to him, put his hands around his chest, glanced at Xuan Xuan and said, "Duplicity girl, dead duck has a hard mouth." β
Xuan Xuan opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but Changyun was pulled aside and asked her to tell the whole story of Xuan Linlang's disappearance, and Changyun also cast a glance at Changyun and Lile from time to time. Chang Yun directly ignored it and turned to leave.
