Time is like flowing water, in the blink of an eye, one day, Li Yi, the king of Qingyang, was discussing something with several people in the rivers and lakes and important ministers of the imperial court in the side hall, and these people present were all his henchmen.

Listen to only one of the ministers; "Your Majesty, if this is the case, then why doesn't Your Majesty grant him a knighthood and recruit him into the court, so that everything is in Your Majesty's control."

After hearing this, the king of Qingyang thought for a moment and said; "What Qing said is very true, then it depends on what Qing said, but this matter must be properly arranged."

The minister said; "Your Majesty, rest assured, with the help of these people, it will be foolproof."

What the minister was referring to were the few masters of the rivers and lakes in this hall now.

Hearing this, King Qingyang nodded with satisfaction.

Then he asked; "Did the man catch it?"

Hearing the question, the leading Jianghu man on the side replied; "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister has mastered his traces, and now he is sending someone to capture him, and he can't escape from the palm of the minister's hand."

This leading Jianghu man is very confident in guaranteeing, but he does have his self-confidence capital, after all, as the president of the Illuminati and the number one master in the world, it is indeed not difficult to catch a person and grasp a person's whereabouts.

That's right, the people in the rivers and lakes in this hall now are officially Liu Qianshang and several master members of the Illuminati.

After listening to Liu Qiansheng's words, King Qingyang nodded again, he didn't have the slightest doubt about Liu Qiansheng's words, because he knew too well the strength of Liu Qianshang and the Illuminati.

Three days later, in Jiangxia City, Changgong Yao received a letter from his eldest brother Changgong Biannan, saying that the imperial court had enshrined him as the Marquis of Wu'an, and let him enter Beijing to receive the title in the near future.

Changgong Biannan's letter, Changgong Yao is naturally convinced, although he is not interested in the matter of the marquis, and he does not fancy it, but now Changgong Biannan has re-enshrined the king and worshiped the general, faintly reproducing the prosperity of the former Chu Palace.

Moreover, since the change of the imperial court and the re-establishment of the emperor, Chang Gong Yao has not yet entered Beijing, and now it is time to go.

So after some discussion, he finally took Xia Yingdong and Ye Lingqiu, and the three of them went to Luojing together.

From Jiangxia to Luojing, Nanyang is the place where you must pass through, Nanyang is the junction of Zhongzhou and Jingzhou, the south gate of Zhongzhou, the north gate of Jingzhou, since ancient times, it belongs to the throat artery, and the soldiers must fight for the place.

Because of its critical location, frequent trade and celebrities, it also makes this place extremely prosperous, and many merchants and giants gather here.

After two or three days of trekking, Changgong Yao and the three came to this place, the sky is getting late, it is not suitable to hurry, so the three of them decided to stay in this city for one night, after resting and rectifying, tomorrow in the rush to Luojing.

When the three of them entered the city, it was late, and they inquired about several inns, all of which were full, and in desperation, they had to find a small shop to live in, but the store was small, but it was clean and tidy, and the service was considerate.

Chang Gong Yao found the boss and opened two guest rooms, one for himself and one for Ye Lingqiu and Xia Yingdong.

After a long day of traveling, the three of them were also a little tired, and after a brief meal, they went back to their rooms to rest.

Changgong Haruka returned to the room, and after some washing, he lay on the bed on all fours, thinking about what happened during this time, and always felt like a dream.

Thinking that if the new emperor does not cut the feudal domain and his father is not assassinated, he is still a carefree young master at this time, and the eldest brother will not help King Qingyang to rebel against the imperial court, and the new emperor Li Lin will not end up with the end of giving up the country to others. If he didn't go to Jingzhou, he wouldn't have discovered the conspiracy of the Illuminati, let alone known that there were so many acquaintances among his colleagues in the Hades Palace.

………

This kind of thing, but unfortunately if there is no if, what should happen is still a non-falling happen, I am always a mortal, I can only follow the trend, not against the sky.

Zheng Changgong Yao sighed that although the manpower is strong, when it will eventually end, the way of heaven is strong and cannot be violated. Suddenly, I heard a slight footstep on the roof, very thin and light, but I couldn't hide it from Chang Gong Yao, a master of his level, as long as he listened carefully, within a radius of several miles, except for the sound of flowers blooming, nothing else could escape his ears.

Sensing that there was someone on the roof, and it was a master with a strong breath, Changgong Haruka frowned, and his figure disappeared into the bed silently.

On the roof was a middle-aged man, extremely rugged, with a face full of stubble, and a pair of eyes under his messy hair staring at the room where Ye Lingqiu and Xia Yingdong's two daughters lived, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Your Excellency's climb on someone's roof at night, it's a little rude!"

Just as the middle-aged man was about to make a move, a faint voice suddenly sounded behind him.

It was Haruka Tonomiya.

"Has it been discovered?"

Hearing the sudden voice, the middle-aged man frowned slightly, and his heart was shocked, he thought that with his martial arts, he could act quietly, but he didn't expect to be discovered.

The next moment, his body suddenly rose into the air, but he didn't want to escape, but urged the move to attack Changgong Haruka.

Changgong Yao was naturally not idle, the corners of his mouth raised a touch of arc, and with a slight touch of his toes, he met it with one hand.

That's right, although the martial arts of this person in front of him are strong, he still deals with it with one hand, this is not his pretending arms, but the confidence from his strength, he was beaten by Liu Qian before, but it was not in vain, under the pressure of the limit, his martial arts have improved a lot, if he is now against Liu Qiansheng, although he dare not say to win, but at least he can draw.

So to deal with the person in front of him, he was confident that within twenty moves, he would capture the other party.

Sure enough, the two fought each other, and before they could make twenty moves, the middle-aged man was knocked to the ground by Changgong Yao.

Of course, the sound of the fight between the two had already alarmed Ye Lingqiu and Xia Yingdong, after all, Ye Lingqiu's martial arts were higher than Changgong Yao, and a master like a middle-aged man appeared, so naturally he couldn't hide it from her.

"Tell me, who are you, what are your intentions to climb the roofs of other people's houses at night?" In the room, Changgong Yao looked at the middle-aged man with a trace of scarlet on the corner of his mouth with a smile.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man didn't answer, he didn't know where to take out a white brocade handkerchief, cocked his orchid fingers, and gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, before he said in a greasy voice; "Our family is Wen Chengqing, the head of the inner house."

As he spoke, he pulled his hand on his face, and a human skin mask was torn off, revealing a delicate face, not good-looking or ugly, with a hint of femininity.

Originally, Changgong Haruka wanted to complain about this middle-aged man's sissy with a scruffy beard, five big and three thick, but after hearing his self-reported identity, he instantly understood.

He had naturally heard of the name Wen Chengqing, the seventeenth on the list of heroes in the world, known as the number one master in the world, but unfortunately he was a eunuch.

"It's Lord Steward, what are you doing here?" Haruka Tonomiya asked with a smile.

Wen Chengqing said; "I'm no longer the head of Ouchi, but a fugitive from the imperial court."

His words were full of anger, and his eyes revealed a thick killing intent.

Chang Gong Yao listened, and suddenly his heart suddenly appeared, "I see, no wonder I dress up like this!" Then he asked with a faint smile; Then why didn't you run away, did you plan for me to send you to turn yourself in? His words were naturally ridiculous, and he couldn't have been stupid enough to believe such a ridiculous reason.

Wen Chengqing said; "I'm here to see someone next to Childe."

"Who?" Changgong Yaojian's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"She!" Wen Chengqing pointed to Xia Yingdong on the side.

"Yingdong?"

Chang Gongyao's brows furrowed even deeper, he didn't expect this little girl to be involved with Wen Chengqing.

Xia Yingdong on the side was also a little confused, and quickly searched for the information of this middle-aged man in his mind, and after making sure that he had not seen this person, his eyebrows were tightly locked.

"What did you find her?" Chang Gong Yao asked, although Wen Chengqing couldn't do anything with him and Ye Lingqiu here, but he also had to know the reason, after all, Wen Chengqing was a fugitive now.

Wen Chengqing saw him looking at himself vigilantly, and hurriedly explained; "Don't get me wrong, Childe, I'm just looking for her to confirm one thing, and I won't do anything to hurt her."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Haruka Tonomiya asked with squinted eyes.

"Have you heard of Xia Yueqing?" Wen Chengqing said.

Hearing this, Chang Gong Yao frowned slightly, thought for a while and said; "Southeast hero Xia Yueqing?"

If you ask others, maybe he really doesn't know, but he does know a little about this Xia Yueqing. This person is a figure who crisscrossed the rivers and lakes more than 20 years ago, because he was from Lingnan, his own martial arts are strong, and he is chivalrous and righteous, and the people of the time called him the southeast hero, and then for some reason he suddenly disappeared in the rivers and lakes, time is like a knife, and with the passage of time, it is gradually forgotten by people.

"Well, it's the Southeast Hero." Wen Chengqing confirmed Chang Gong Yao's words.

Hearing Xia Yueqing's name, Ye Lingqiu on the side seemed to think of something, and wanted to say something, but after glancing at Xia Yingdong next to him, the words came to his lips, but he took them back.

"Isn't it rumored that he disappeared twenty years ago? What does it have to do with my little girl? Chang Gong Yao naturally knew that Wen Chengqing would not mention this person for no reason, so he asked,

Seeing Changgong Yao asking, Wen Chengqing said; "Don't worry, Childe, wait for me to come to Childe one by one."

After that, his face froze, and he fell into endless memories, and when he talked about some important joints, his face was sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes nostalgic, sometimes angry......

It turned out that before Wen Chengqing entered the court, he and Xia Yueqing were sworn brothers, and the relationship between the two was very good at that time, and they were both at the age of high spirits, and the two were determined to do a great career and be a hero admired by everyone for a generation. Later, through the unremitting efforts of the two brothers, a force called "Providence Villa" was established. At first, everything went well, their power developed rapidly, and soon became the number one sect in Lingnan, due to their good management, the reputation of Providence Villa in the rivers and lakes was excellent, and the two brothers also fulfilled their dreams and became heroes admired by everyone.

Originally, if everything developed well, their brothers' status in the martial arts would rise, and it was not impossible to even become the leader of the martial arts alliance. But Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and the appearance of Providence Villa has broken the original order of the rivers and lakes, and it has also moved many people's cakes, so they joined forces and slaughtered all the doors of Providence Villa overnight while Xia Yueqing was out. In the end, under the desperate protection of Wen Chengqing, he escaped with Xia Yueqing's only bloodline, but on the way, he passed out due to his injuries, and when he woke up, he found that the child was gone.

Later, in order to take revenge, he joined the court and became the commander of the internal guard, but he also lost his male body because of this, otherwise with his talent, how could he only be seventeen in the world.

……

After Wen Chengqing finished speaking, Xia Yingdong on the side was already hazy with tears, and at this moment, she still didn't know that the child in Wen Chengqing's mouth was herself, and she quickly stepped forward and hugged Wen Chengqing, called "Uncle Wen", and then couldn't help but break down and cry.

She also finally remembered, that year she was three years old, in her memory, a big manor, full of fire, a fierce masked man ruthlessly slaughtered her family, mother's blood splashed on her face, frightened her to cry, when a masked man raised a knife to cut her, her Uncle Wen suddenly appeared, beat the masked man to death with a palm, and then picked her up, escaped from the manor, she was so frightened that she fainted, I don't know how long later, she woke up on the side of a road, Uncle Wen, who was lying on the side, remained motionless, and although she shook with all her strength, she still did not react at all. After a long time, a group of armored men appeared in front of her, and the leading general looked at her, then pulled her away, and finally she arrived at the palace of the king of Chu.

"Good boy, I'm sorry for you."

Wen Chengqing hugged Xia Yingdong, tears also flowed from his red eyes, he has been looking for Xia Yingdong and Xia Yueqing all these years, but after so many years, there is still no news at all, I didn't expect that today's providence made him find Xia Yingdong, his heart was very happy, and he cried with joy.

After listening to Wen Chengqing's words, Chang Gong Yao also knew what was going on, and when he saw him and Xia Yingdong recognizing each other at this moment, he was quite moved, sighed, called Ye Lingqiu, and went out.

left room for Wen Chengqing and Xia Yingdong.

"This girl in your family is really not simple, she is actually Xia Yueqing's descendant." As soon as he went out, Ye Lingqiu said.

Haruka Tonomiya asked; "Senior sister, do you know something?"

Just now, Ye Lingqiu wanted to speak and stopped, and he saw it in his eyes.

"Actually, I've seen Xia Yueqing." Ye Lingqiu said lightly.

"Where?" Hearing this, Changgong Yao hurriedly asked. After learning about Xia Yingdong's life experience, he made up his mind to help this girl find his father, he didn't expect that this girl was worse than himself.

Seeing Chang Gong Yao's anxious appearance, Ye Lingqiu sighed; "I know what you're thinking, but when I saw him, he was already a pile of dry bones, so I didn't tell the girl just now."

Chang Gong Yao frowned when he heard this, although he wanted to find Xia Yingdong's father, but he actually knew in his heart that Xia Yueqing was no longer alive, otherwise Wen Chengqing would not have any news after looking for so many years.

But now that Xia Yingdong just knows her life experience, and even thinks that her father is alive in the world, she still has hope, if she suddenly tells her that Xia Yueqing is dead, the glimmer of hope in her heart is shattered, and she really doesn't know what will happen.
