Chapter 51—The Death of the Patriarch (II)
Soon, Luo Yinying's body appeared in one of the most majestic buildings in the ring mountain range, a red brick building that looked two stories higher than other ordinary houses, and was the Yue Senate. This place is not only the place where these eight high-ranking elders live, but also the place where every time a major event occurs, the countermeasures are discussed and the content of the aftermath is discussed. This is also a place frequented by the patriarch of the Yue tribe, and over time, it has become a place among the Yue people that even surpasses the status of the patriarch's residence.
Luo Yinying also knows this place very well, when she was a child, as a very enthusiastic princess, Her Royal Highness has always come here to see what is going on. Over time, she became acquainted with these eight elders in this life. Luo Yinying actually knows very well that these eight elders are just ordinary Yue people who look serious and introverted on the outside, but in fact they are eight very kind and wise existences, Luo Yinying has been mixed with them since she was a child, and she has learned a lot of these knowledge and practical experience in all aspects, such as financial management, business management, military dispatch management, and other things Luo Yinying has learned a lot. It's just that after that, before Luo Yinying could continue to follow these eight elders to study all aspects of the content in more depth, she followed her father all the way to lead the Yue army south to attack the Qi State. It was this time that her father swore before leaving, that he would succeed, and the battle changed Luo Yinying's subsequent life.
By the time Luo Yinying returned to the Yue clan now, these eight elders were no longer exactly the same eight people as they were back then, two of them had passed away, and it was their son who replaced them, so there were still two middle-aged men among the eight elders now. However, these eight elders were still able to coordinate with each other to do everything well. Luo Yinying also knew this, and she also visited the Senate when she returned to the Yue clan. It's just that she really didn't expect that those three girls would be in the Senate now.
When Luo Yinying walked up the five steps to the gate of the Senate, the guards on both sides knew her, and there was basically no one in the entire Yue tribe who did not know their Royal Highness the Princess, and everything this strange woman did was deeply rooted in the hearts of every Yue tribesman. Therefore, the guards on both sides of the Senate did not need to ask Luo Yinying to show the tokens and warrants necessary for others to enter the Senate. The two guards not only directly got out of the way, but also enthusiastically said to Luo Yinying: "Your Royal Highness, those three women are talking to Elder Xi, you just need to go in and see them." ”
Luo Yinying nodded slightly, and after saying thank you, she continued to walk towards the interior of the Senate. For her, the identities of these three women are becoming more and more confusing, so that she doesn't know what is going on.
However, when Luo Yinying walked into the council hall in the center of the Senate, she had already seen Elder Xi sitting on a chair with his back to her, and an old man with a childish face was talking to the three women sitting opposite in front of her. When Luo Yinying got a little closer, she immediately shouted in surprise: "Yun'er, Fei'er, it's really you! I thought it was someone else, and Xuejun, why are you here?"
The three girls also stood up and ran to Luo Yinying's side, and the three girls hugged each other with Luo Yinying, and even laughed and played. These three girls are none other than Nangong Yun, Yu Fei and Lin Xuejun, who came here from Que Cheng before. After Nangong Yun took the lead and received the news that Shi Lanbo and Sun Hao had gone to the Xuanling Continent first, the three girls did not hesitate anymore, and rushed here directly to meet Luo Yinying as quickly as possible.
In the Royal Academy of Qi Kingdom, Luo Yinying was recognized by other students with her humble attitude and kind way of doing things. Among them, the relationship between Nangong Yun and Yu Fei and her is naturally needless to say, since Feng Yuchong and Gao Hanyue left the Qi Royal Academy, Luo Yinying and Nangong Yun, Yu Fei and Jiang Yuehan have a very close relationship. It's just that she didn't know Lin Xuejun too much because of Nangong Yun at the beginning, of course, she still knows Lin Xuejun, but she is not very familiar with it. It's just that what makes Luo Yinying curious is that if she remembers correctly, Lin Xuejun is the eldest lady of the Lin family, the only remaining family in Qi State. She had also heard that Lin Xuejun had developed a new type of spice and was selling it all over the country and even in some cities of the Closed Country, why did she follow Nangong Yun and Yu Fei here now?
Seeing the little puzzled expression flashing in Luo Yinying's eyes, Nangong Yun, who was very observant, couldn't help but smile and clenched Luo Yinying's jade hand, and explained in a coquettish voice: "Sister, she hasn't been in a very good mood these days, so she took the initiative to leave the Lin family and decided to go to the Xuanling Continent with us. I think my sister's mood is not too good now, so it's a good choice to come out and relax. So, after getting the consent of Lin Feng, the head of the Lin family, my sister followed us here. ”
Only then did Luo Yinying understand why when she saw Lin Xuejun for the first time, she found that Lin Xuejun's mood was not very good, and there was even a trace of loss hidden in her eyes. Such an emotion, coupled with Lin Xuejun's light blue dress now, reveals a lonely atmosphere even more. Although Nangong Yun did not say what caused Lin Xuejun's low mood, she could probably guess it. After all, Lin Xuejun drank the marriage of Lu Qing, the son of the Lu family, and basically every Qi person knew about it. Now that the Lu family has fallen, the marriage relationship between Lu Qing and Lin Xuejun will inevitably be shattered, which is also the result of Luo Yinying's own guess.
After all, Luo Yinying is a princess with a big heart, although she doesn't know much about the current situation. But she still took Lin Xuejun's hand and comforted Lin Xuejun: "It's okay, in our place, the people of the Yue nationality are simple and kind people, and we will hold a welcome dinner tonight, so that you can see the customs and customs of our Yue people, and I guarantee that your mood will become better." ”
Luo Yinying's words finally made Lin Xuejun's brows that had been locked open slightly, she smiled reluctantly, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, my emotions have affected the reunion of my partners, I'm sorry for my bad Ying'er"
"Where?" Luo Yinying smiled and pulled the three women beside her to sit down together, and they talked to each other about what had happened before. After a while, the partners who were originally a little rusty became intimate again, and even Lin Xuejun couldn't help but listen carefully to what the three women beside him were saying.
It was only at this time that Elder Xi in front of him slowly turned around, and he smiled and explained to Luo Yinying: "These three women said that they are your distinguished guests, and after some inquiries and investigations, I feel that there is actually nothing wrong with them. That's why I took the initiative to invite them into the Senate, I wonder if Her Royal Highness the princess thinks the old man is doing the right thing?"
Luo Yinying herself didn't want to pursue these things, looking at Elder Xi's expression that seemed to be smiling, Luo Yinying smiled slowly, but her eyes looked around the hall, and saw that although it was magnificent, there was still something missing. So, Luo Yinying replied, "Elder Xi, what are these words, aren't you the one who allowed us to reunite? By the way, what about the other elders, why are you the only one in the council hall today?"
Elder Xi secretly admired that Her Royal Highness the Princess's observation was really keen. He stood up and explained to Luo Yinying and the three women in front of him, "It's not because of the recent incident in the Xuanling Continent, the merger of this Xuanling Continent is also a thing that is difficult to tell whether it is good or bad for our Yue clan. On the one hand, we Yue people may be able to find a way out through the Xuanling Continent, according to the possibility, we may really encounter a great risk, if it is really as your Royal Highness the princess said, wouldn't we still need to find a way out as soon as possible, otherwise if that day really comes, wouldn't we have been in a situation of helplessness until now? This is something that we absolutely cannot accept. As a result, all seven of their elders had already gone to the Xuanling Continent to look for possible opportunities. ”
"I see. Luo Yinying nodded, since this is the case, such a result is reasonable, but no matter what, there should be no need for these seven elders to go to the Xuanling Continent together. But Luo Yinying is now mainly immersed in the joy of meeting her partners, but she doesn't care too much about other things. So, Luo Yinying pulled up the three partners beside her, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, I'll take my partners around the village, Uncle Nan, what do you think?" The West Elder who was known as "Uncle Nan" smiled slightly, "Your Royal Highness the princess, although you can go with confidence, there is nothing to do here anyway now, I will go and tell the people in the village, so that they can prepare well for the next night banquet." When the time comes, Her Royal Highness's friends will surely enjoy such customs. ”
Luo Yinying smiled deeply, she was very grateful to this Elder Xi for his ability to understand the situation and help her accomplish all the things in it. So, Luo Yinying pulled up the three girls next to her and said with a smile: "It's better to go to the village first" Nangong Yun, Yu Fei and Lin Xuejun The three girls all nodded now, and the three girls were not in a hurry to go to the Xuanling Continent, and the other partners were also on the Xuanling Continent now. At this point, these partners are actually not too worried, at least at this time, they can still learn more about the internal situation of the Yue people here. In case one day, if the forces of some aspects of the Qi State really send troops to assassinate the Yue people, I am afraid that the Yue people will still have some power to fight back. In any case, at least not so passively now.
Nangong Yun, Yu Fei and Lin Xuejun still have some thoughts in their hearts, they followed Luo Yinying to look around in this Yue village, and when they looked at the simple and kind faces of the people, the hearts of the three girls surged with an indescribable strange emotion.
