Bai Jiushu didn't hear Zong Xuanyu speak for a while, so she knew that Zong Xuanyu's mother should be a difficult master to deal with.

Zong Xuanyu's mother likes to be a daughter-in-law, according to the inertia of the evil mother-in-law in ancient times, she will definitely look at her unpleasantly, and then target her everywhere.

There are many masters in the Shenhuang Kingdom, a few more, she is really difficult to deal with, for now, getting married is a trivial matter, and solving the upcoming troubles is a big deal.

Whether it is to guard against Heyang or to deal with the masters from the Divine Phoenix Kingdom, she needs to practice and become stronger and stronger.

"Zong Xuanyu, how powerful are you? When your mother came, were you sure how to deal with it? ”

Zong Xuanyu pondered for a moment and said, "None of the masters of the Divine Phoenix Kingdom are the opponents of this king, but they are better than the masters, and the only one who can really be regarded as a master next to this king is you." ”

Bai Jiushu was silent.

Zong Xuanyu held Bai Jiushu's hand, held it tightly, and interlocked his fingers at the end, "Don't worry." ”

"Bao, does your mother know martial arts?"

"Well, a little."

"That'...... If your mother targets me, can I hit your mother? ”

Zong Xuanyu: ......

He really didn't know how to answer.

Although from the bottom of his heart, he has always treated his mother as dead, no matter how much he denies it, it can't change the fact that it is his mother.

"Does your mother have a weakness?" Bai Jiushu asked.

Zong Xuanyu's eyes darkened, "After my father died, my mother remarried, and the person who married was my own uncle, and she also gave birth to Zong Xiqiong and Zong Boqing.

Zong Boqing is ten years old, which is my mother's capital and confidence in the Zong family, and it is also her weakness, but she should not have brought Zong Boqing here. ”

Bai Jiushu nodded, "Forget it, don't think about it so much, let's cover it with the soldiers." By the way, if your mother interferes in your marriage, will she also interfere in Yuki's marriage and prevent her from marrying Yuebai? ”

"Will interfere, the nobles of the Divine Phoenix Country usually do not intermarry with foreigners, even if they get married, the woman will not be able to enter the family tree, and can only be regarded as an outer room."

Bai Jiushu frowned, "This is too harsh, what's wrong with the foreigner?" And you are now the prince of the Northern Hidden Kingdom, and you and Youji are both from the Northern Hidden Kingdom. ”

"Well, the people of the Divine Phoenix Kingdom will interfere, but they can't, the affairs of this king and Yuji are in their own hands."

Bai Jiushu hooked her lips, "It's pretty much the same, it seems that you have to let Youji hurry up to the Bai family to propose marriage, so as to save your mother from interfering and marrying, at least it will be smoother." ”

"The Holy King's Mansion is already preparing, and Yuki will go to propose marriage in three days."

"Well, that's good."

“……”

After discussing with Wen Ruyu, Princess Rui set a wedding date, and Cang Junrong and Bai Miaohe got married on April 27, and there were more than two months.

Three days later, Zong Youji went to the Wen family to propose marriage, and also set a wedding date, the ninth day of the fourth month, more than half a month earlier than Cang Junrong, mainly because he was worried about Bai Miaohe being pregnant, and it was better to marry early.

On the night of Zong Youji and Bai Miaohe's marriage, Bai Jiushu went to the Nie family's ghost house and began to practice in retreat again.

Zong Xuanyu took her son and secretly followed her to the Nie family's ghost house.

Bai Jiushu was busy cultivating, and Zong Xuanyu was wandering around the Nie family's ghost house with his son in his arms, he was really bored, and he wanted to find a book to read, so he went to the Nie family's study.

Seeing that the door was open, he pushed the door directly and walked in.

As soon as he walked in, a painting scroll on the ground caught his attention.

Only half of the portrait is exposed.

The painting depicts a woman whose eyes have been pierced with a sharp object and turned into two holes, and under her delicate nose is a confident smile.

Zong Xuanyu frowned, feeling that the woman in the portrait was a little familiar, so he stepped forward and bent down to pick up the scroll.

Looking closely, although the woman in the portrait has two pierced eyes, the nose, mouth, and even face shape under the eyes are very similar to Bai Jiushu.

The paper is yellowed and looks old.

Zong Xuanyu's heart sank, remembering that before, Bai Jiushu had suspected that she was not the daughter of the Bai family, and now this portrait in the Nie family's study ......

Who is the woman in the portrait? What is the relationship with the Nie family? What is the relationship with Bai Jiushu?

"Daddy...... I want my mother to ......" Zong Huaipu pouted and said in a milky voice.

Zong Xuanyu smiled at him, "Your mother is very busy, and your father is with you." ”

Eyes wandered around the Nie family's study, walked to the table, and opened the scrolls on the table one by one, three of which were portraits of women, and the same person was painted.

The portrait is the same as the previous one, with two holes pierced in the eyes, so that the full picture of the woman in the portrait is not visible.

Still, the nose and mouth under the eyes can be used to tell how beautiful the woman in the portrait is.

The rest of the portrait is intact, but the eyes have been maliciously destroyed.

If the woman in the portrait is from the Nie family, then it is unlikely that the Nie family will destroy her portrait, and it can only be someone else.

The study was a mess, as if it had gone through a fight, which should have happened on the night of the extermination.

The murderer killed the people of the Nie family, and then destroyed the portrait, but only destroyed the portrait of the same person, which shows that the murderer hated the woman in the portrait very much, and hated it so much that he didn't even let go of the portrait.

If the murderer behind it is a woman, it may be jealousy.

If the murderer behind it is a man and hates a woman so much, the biggest possibility is that he hates because of love.

Before, Bai Jiushu said that he found a letter in the ancestral hall of the Nie family, and there were two names on the letter, Cang Min and Huang Zimang.

Cang Min was the first emperor.

If the emperor is related to the Nie family's extermination case, he is even the mastermind......

I remember that on the day he brought the army to Beiyou, when he entered the palace for a banquet, the emperor looked at Bai Jiushu's eyes...... It was the way a man looked at a woman, not at a junior.

The truth of some things seems to be beginning to emerge little by little.

If Bai Jiushu was not the daughter of the Bai family, Bai Ao must know her background.

Zong Xuanyu was in a complicated mood, rolled up all the scrolls, and put them in the cabinet.

After leaving the study, he did not go to Bai Jiushu, but left the ghost house of the Nie family with his son and went to the Ruiwang Mansion.

Rui Wang's Mansion, gazebo.

Cang Junrong is about to get married, it can be said that he is proud of the spring breeze, in a good mood, with a bewitching smile on the corner of his mouth, "What are you looking for me?" ”

"This king wants to know about the Nie family, all the things about the Nie family." Zong Xuanyu said in a deep voice, trying to keep his voice as low as possible.

"Nie family?" Cang Junrong was surprised, "How can you want to know about the Nie family?" ”

"You just need to help Ben Wang investigate, don't ask why."

Something flashed in Cang Junrong's eyes, and he pursed his lips, "You really asked the right person, since many years ago, when this son investigated the cause of my father's madness, this son's leg, and the accidental death of the emperor's grandfather's other sons, he investigated the case of the Nie family's annihilation." ”
