The extraordinary experience of this family of four made Sima Hongyan sigh with emotion.

After Nan Guying finished speaking, Sima Hongyan said: "After many hardships in the past, but your family can finally be reunited safely, this is a great thing, and from now on, you don't have to hide in Tibet, it can be regarded as a bittersweet end." ”

Seeing that Nan Jiuxiao and Yan Mengling were both nodding, Sima Hongyan said again: "I have a question for my uncle and aunt here, and I want to ask the two elders to solve my doubts." ”

Yan Mengling smiled and said, "I know what you want to ask me, is it about you replacing the Yan Dynasty?" ”

Sima Hongyan didn't hide it, and replied: "What my aunt said is true! I wondered, whatever the reason, now that I am the heir of Yanling. This is the inheritance of my aunt and grandparents for hundreds of years, doesn't my aunt blame me? ”

Yan Mengling smiled softly again, and was silent for a while before saying, "Actually, I'm not surprised that the Yan family will have this ending!" This world has been turbulent for so long, and Yanling has nothing more than two endings: one is that it is divided by the heroes, and Yanling no longer exists. The other is that Yanling changes hands, and the capable live there. ”

Sima Hongyan was very curious and asked, "Why does my aunt have such thoughts?" ”

Yan Mengling said: "I know my brother too well, he is enthusiastic and ambitious. But judging the situation for others, working in scheming, he has to plan everything seamlessly before he dares to implement it, and he is too cautious and cautious. But this world is no longer the world of hundreds of years ago, the five countries are standing together, holding each other back, if you use the old way, I am afraid that you will not be able to do anything at all. And in recent years, Dongning has grown, and Xiyue has also recovered, if it continues to be conservative, there will only be the two endings I just mentioned.

I have seen a lot along the way, and I have never seen the people have the same support and expectation for a king as they did for you when I was living among the people, so I think it may be a change and breakthrough for you to take charge of Yanling. And you are kind to the old people, and you are a kind person. As long as everything is people-oriented and the people can live a good life, I have nothing to resent.

Maybe it's because I've been living in the folk all these years, but I like this free and easy way of life, so I didn't have the idea of going back to the palace to be a canary a long time ago. As he spoke, he glanced at Nan Jiuxiao, who was silent on the side, with deep affection in his eyes. And Nan Jiuxiao was also looking at her.

Looking at each other, Yan Mengling continued: "What could be happier in this world than staying with your beloved for a lifetime? ”

Yan Mengling's words touched Sima Hongyan deeply, but she didn't expect Yan Mengling, who left the palace in her teens, to begin to cherish the life of ordinary people after decades of hardships, it seems that she is no longer the pampered princess she used to be, but an ordinary woman who just wants to stay by her husband and children.

Sima Hongyan was relieved for her, and she was also relieved for herself, she had actually always been worried that this matter would become an obstacle between her and Nan Guying, after all, she overthrew Nan Guying's mother's Yan dynasty, this is an unchangeable fact, she never expected Yan Mengling to take this matter seriously at all.

After saying that, Sima Hongyan's heart was much more relaxed, and he hurriedly handed Yan Mengling a cup of tea.

Then Sima Hongyan looked at Nan Jiuxiao and said, "Uncle, I have something to ask you about." Have you seen my father, Sima Yongcheng? ”

Nan Jiuxiao was a straightforward person, and nodded without hesitation: "That's right, I've seen it." Originally, when I saw you for the first time yesterday, I wanted to tell you that your eyebrows really resemble your father. ”

Sima Hongyan said: "Can you please tell me more about it?" I always knew nothing about my father's affairs, and I asked my uncle to explain it to me. ”

Nan Jiuxiao said: "Good boy! Actually, if you don't ask, I'm going to tell you today. Speaking of which, I met your father because of the fire that took place more than 20 years ago, and he was the one sent by the emperor to arrest me. ”

Seeing that Sima Hongyan didn't have a surprised expression, Nan Jiuxiao secretly wondered, but he didn't ask more, and continued: "When you mention this matter, you have to talk about one thing, and all grievances revolve around this thing. ”

"Qiankun Yin!" Sima Hongyan said without hesitation.

Nan Jiuxiao nodded gloomily and said, "Yes, this is it." But who would have thought that in fact, there is no Qiankun seal in the world! ”

Sima Hongyan was stunned for a moment, and his expression changed slightly. Although she has already cultivated the ability to be invisible, Qiankun Yin has involved too many past events, and it was suddenly said that it was something that did not exist at all, which really made her unacceptable for a while.

Nan Jiuxiao looked at his family and asked Sima Hongyan, "Girl Hongyan, have you ever heard of the origin of the surname Old Man?" ”

Sima Hongyan shook his head and said, "I don't seem to have heard of anyone else with this surname except for my uncle's family. ”

Nan Jiuxiao said a little proudly: "Not bad! Because so far, I'm afraid that the only person with the surname Nan is the old man's family. Because this surname is the surname of the ruler of the Garu people thousands of years ago, the old man is the only remaining bloodline of the rulers of the Garu people. ”

"The people of Garu?" Sima Hongyan seemed to have heard this name before, but after thinking about it for a long time, she didn't remember who told her.

Nan Guying said at this time: "Do you remember the animal skin map I showed you in the Cangxiu Valley?" On the back of the map, there was a symbol, and you said that someone had taken out an ornament with this symbol in the Five Nations Tournament. In fact, that symbol is the text of the Jialou people, as for the fact that you said that Li Siyu got the waist card in the nameless ancient city of the Xiyue Desert, I also told my father, but my father felt that this matter was unlikely. ”

As soon as Li Siyu was mentioned, Sima Hongyan immediately thought that the person who had mentioned Jialou to her was Shi Jinyan. It was also during the Five Nations Competition, Shi Jinyan mentioned a word to the Jialou people, but for some reason, Shi Jinyan did not elaborate. She didn't care about it at the time, and then she forgot about it.

Sima Hongyan immediately asked Nan Guying: "I remember that you said that the animal skin map was given to you by Jia Gong, the great eunuch next to Emperor Yan Rong, so that the Yan clan has always collected relics about the Jialou people thousands of years ago. ”

Nan Guying said: "I guess that's the case, but I don't know much about the people of Jialou, so let's let my father tell us in detail!" ”

Nan Jiuxiao nodded, his eyes looked high, as if he was in a deep thought, and it took a long time to slowly tell the past events that had lasted for thousands of years.

It turns out that thousands of years ago, the earliest rulers on the Central Plains continent were the Jialou people, as for the origin of the Jialou people and why they are called the Jialou people, because they are too long to verify.

The so-called Garu people are just a general term, but in fact, they are also divided into several different ethnic groups according to their surnames. They each have their own strengths, depend on each other, and live in peace for hundreds of years.

At that time, the most powerful and commanding the group was the Nan clan, they were brave and strong, responsible for the prey and predation of the entire Jialu people, and they were the most prestigious clan among the Jialu people.

And it is recognized that the most intelligent race is the Yan clan, although there are not many of them, but most of them are full of wisdom and thoughts. Finding a place to shelter and building a shelter are all ways they have come up with, and they are the wise men of the people of Garu.

As time passed, the Yan people gradually refused to submit to the rule of the Nan people, believing that having wisdom was far more qualified to rule the group than having a strong body.

So the Yan clan secretly united with other tribes and launched a surprise attack one night, slaughtering most of the people of the southern tribe. Although the Nan people were brave and good at fighting, they could not fight against more than ten times the enemy, except for a small number of people who escaped by chance, and the Nan people were slaughtered overnight.

Later, the Yan people replaced the extinct Nan people as the new leader, in order to consolidate their own master status, the Yan people began to design and build houses, farm land and animal husbandry, and led the Jialou people to slowly build a civilized land.

In order to make the tribe forget everything about the Nan people in the past, the Yan people created a new script and destroyed all the civilizations brought by the original Nan people. This is done so that all the Jialu people can completely forget the existence of the Nan people through the passage of time.

Later, the Yan people established a system, established an army, and allowed intermarriage between various ethnic groups, completely disrupting the boundaries between various ethnic groups, blurring the concept of ethnic groups, and turning everyone into one ethnic group, and the Yan people finally renamed this new whole Yanling.

After hundreds of years of development, there began to be a capital, a palace, and a palace, and the earliest Yan people also proclaimed themselves emperors and completely ruled the entire Yanling. At this time, the people had forgotten the former Jialou Alliance, and they had forgotten the Nan people who had commanded them.

However, the good times did not last long, and in Yanling, which was ruled by the original Yan people, many people began to be dissatisfied with the prosperous and luxurious life of the Yan people, but they had to work continuously, but they still did not have enough food and clothing.

As a result, many rebellion battles broke out in Yanling, but the scale of the uprising was not large, and all of them were violently suppressed by the Yanling army, and countless people lost their heads. Unexpectedly, just a few years after peace, the Yan people's own internal fighting suddenly broke out, and the Yan people, as the rulers of Yanling, suffered heavy casualties in the continuous civil wars.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, several forces once again condensed to resist the rule of the Yan people and established themselves as kings, which is the origin of the three kingdoms of Dongning, Xiyue, and Nanyi.

The Yan royal family was once in danger of extinction, but the Yan people woke up in time to stop the civil war, and fought back with all their might to resist the enemy's attack and keep the existing Yan Tomb. However, Yanling, who had already suffered a great loss of vitality, wanted to recover the territory that had been cut off, but he had more than enough strength to do so. In addition, the Beiling Kingdom, which was unexpectedly established later, came out, and finally formed the current five kingdoms standing side by side.

Nan Jiuxiao's ancestors were the descendants of the Nan people who had fled, and after escaping from the massacre, they fled everywhere and inadvertently went to the valley of Cangxiu Mountain. It is blessed with unique natural resources and mountain barriers, so these few remaining Nan people settled there and lived and multiplied.

It is not so much that Nan Jiuxiao is a descendant of the Jialou people, but more precisely, it should be a descendant of the Nan people, and the Jialou people can only be regarded as a collective name for the combination of multiple ethnic groups. In fact, the people of the five kingdoms are now considered to be descendants of the Gallutes.

The reason that caused the Nan people to leave the Cangxiu Valley was because of a heaven and earth tribulation. Once, the Nan people who were hiding in the valley suddenly found that the sky was covered with black clouds, and the thunder was continuous, and the ground trembled and shook, as if the sky was falling apart. The Nan people were frightened, they thought it was a warning from heaven and earth, and they were no longer allowed to live here, and it was an expulsion from them. So the helpless Nan people all left the valley and moved with their families.
