Looking at the reunion of mother and son, the patriarch stood beside him, his expression was complicated, and he looked at Tang Lin's mother with a little guilt.

Tang Lin hugged his mother, this warm embrace, this faint fragrance, this kind smile, all of them stirred in his heart.

Mother!

Tang Lin hugged her tightly, as if he was afraid of losing again, since he was a child, he heard his father say that his mother died of a serious illness, but now he can hold his mother again, Tang Lin is like a dream.

This feeling of happiness surrounded him so thickly that if it was a dream, he would rather never wake up!

After a long time, Tang Lin's mother realized that the patriarch next to her, her cheeks were slightly red, she took Tang Lin's hand, and said, "Come here, Lin'er, why did you come to the Long family?"

Tang Lin and the patriarch followed him into the courtyard, which was a simple courtyard, with fences and guardrails, lotus flowers floating on the small pond, and carp jumping, quiet and empty.

After Tang Lin sat down, he immediately told his mother about his coming here, including many things that happened when he was a child, from how he couldn't practice martial arts, how he knew Xiao Ash, how he grew all the way, and then to this point, he told his mother again, but he hid the Ruthless Immortal Mansion and didn't say it, after all, there was a patriarch next to him.

For the patriarch, Tang Lin is still a little estranged in his heart, as for Xiao Ash, it doesn't hurt to say it, with his current strength, it is enough to protect Xiao Ash, and as the patriarch, he will not make a big deal for Xiao Ash.

As he spoke, Tang Lin looked at his mother. He found that his mother was extraordinarily dignified and beautiful, and she should be in her forties now, but she was exceptionally young in terms of maintenance, with white and tender skin, slender and skillful hands, and excellent demeanor, with the charm of a mature woman with a smile and a smile.

Tang Lin thought secretly: "When my mother was young, she must have been a very beautiful woman. ”

And Tang Lin's mother, Long Xiang'er, heard Tang Lin's tortuous experience, sometimes worried, sometimes happy, sometimes shocked, she didn't expect that after so many years of leaving, her husband and children in a small town far away have experienced so many things.

Especially Tang Lin.

A half-saint under the age of seventeen!

Although there is Xiao Gray's assistance, Tang Lin's own efforts and enlightenment cannot be ignored, and this talent is no less than that of her back then.

And it also has the ability to awaken the barbarian bloodline!

And her own daughter, but married into the palace, in the future, she will have no worries about food and clothing, she is also at ease, as for the eldest son, wandering outside as a ranger, maybe he will be able to make a career in the future.

The son grew up, but the husband still loved him.

She only felt that she had no regrets in this life, and seeing Tang Lin today was the happiest day she had in the past 16 years!

The patriarch looked at the smile on Long Xiang'er's face, it was a smile from the heart, his heart was sour, he had never seen his daughter show such a happy smile when she was with him, for a while, his heart seemed to be dozens of years old, and his expression was gloomy.

"Father. Long Xiang'er looked at the patriarch and said sincerely and sincerely: "Thank you for bringing Lin'er here, my daughter is not filial and has been living here, for so many years, I have not fulfilled my filial piety, don't be surprised by my father." ”

The patriarch's heart warmed, and he smiled bitterly: "As long as you don't blame me, it's fine." ”

Long Xiang'er smiled and said, "How can it be, I understand my father's hard work, I never blamed you, really!"

The patriarch was shocked, looked at her, and said, "Really?"

"Of course. Long Xiang'er didn't think about it, looked at Tang Lin next to her, and said: "You can't hold a grudge against your grandfather, you know? Grandpa has his own hardships, our Long family has a weak bloodline, if we intermarry with the outside, the Long family will completely decline in the future, this is a last resort!"

Tang Lin nodded and said, "I know, but I still hope that my grandfather can give you permission to meet your father. ”

Long Xiang'er's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly looked at the patriarch expectantly.

The patriarch frowned, looked at Tang Lin angrily, and said, "At a young age, he is so cunning, and he will have it when he grows up in the future!"

Tang Lin said disapprerovingly: "Isn't this the inheritance of your excellent bloodline?"

The patriarch was dumbfounded.

"How do you talk to your grandfather? Long Xiang'er pinched Tang Lin's face, then giggled, and said, "Little naughty, after so many years, your father must be tired with the three of you." ”

"Isn't it, it's hard work. Tang Lin immediately added fuel and vinegar and said: "Every day I am so tired that I crawl out of a mud pit, my waist is bent, I was only forty years old, but I look like I am eighty years old." ”

Long Xiang'er glanced at him with disgust and said, "You little clever, I don't know your father's body, how can his waist bend, don't underestimate him." ”

Tang Lin scratched his head.

The patriarch sighed lightly and said, "What the child said makes sense, I'll arrange a time for you to meet, but I can only do it secretly, and no one is allowed to know." ”

Long Xiang'er's body shook, looked at her father in a daze, and said, "Really, really?"

The patriarch said melancholy: "I can keep your people, but I can't keep your heart, I thought that after more than ten years, your relationship with him will fade, but I didn't expect that you still haven't forgotten him, okay, I'll break a precedent." ”

Tang Lin didn't expect the patriarch to really agree, he was stunned for a moment, and then silently lowered his head.

"Father!" Long Xiang'er pounced, knelt in front of the patriarch, her face was full of tears, and said, "My daughter is not filial!"

With a wave of his palm, the patriarch lifted her body up, and sighed lightly: "You prepare, I will arrange for you to meet in a while, but it is only a meeting, and you can't let anyone know." ”

Long Xiang'er looked at her father gratefully, her body trembled slightly, and she was so moved that she couldn't speak.

The patriarch looked at her gently, stroked a tuft of messy hair for her, then glanced at Tang Lin next to him, and said with a smile: "I won't bother you if your mother and son are reunited." With that, he turned and walked towards the outside of the fence.

"Grandpa. Tang Lin suddenly shouted.

The patriarch's body shook, and his body stopped, but he didn't look back.

"In the future, when the Long family needs me, even if I go to the soup and break my bones, I will do my best to help!" Tang Lin said word for word.

The figure of the patriarch stood for a long time, the corners of his mouth seemed to be touched, and then he stepped out of the courtyard.

After the patriarch left, Tang Lin sat with his mother and chatted about what had happened over the years.

Although he hasn't seen him for more than ten years, Tang Lin feels that his mother's blood is thicker than water, there is no estrangement and estrangement at all, everything is so kind and natural.

On this day, Tang Lin ate the dishes made by his mother.

On this day, Tang Lin was embraced by his mother.

The day......

Too many things have happened on this day, this day is Tang Lin's happiest day, he slept very sweetly, as if he had returned to his childhood.

What martial gods, what saints, Tang Lin forgot them all, in his heart, there was only his mother, only the warmth of the moment.

In this small fence courtyard, Tang Lin lived for more than ten days, and the time seemed to pass like flowing water, and he didn't feel long at all.

Every day looking at the afterglow of the sunset, watching the rising sun, smelling the fragrance of his mother's body, smelling the fragrance of food, and listening to his mother's voice, Tang Lin only feels that the happiest thing in his life is nothing more than this.

He is no longer alone.

......

On this day, the patriarch came to the outside of the fence courtyard, holding in his hand a golden scroll, which emitted a strong and sharp golden light, like tiny needles.

The patriarch looked at Long Xiang'er and Tang Lin, who were sitting on the stone table laughing, his eyes were soft, and he said softly: "You guys come first, there is a holy decree." ”

Long Xiang'er and Tang Lin were surprised, but they still stood up, walked to the holy decree and knelt down on one knee, although they are all their own family here, they don't have to salute, but Tang Lin has read poetry and books since he was a child, has great wisdom in his chest, and believes in etiquette and filial piety.

People take filial piety as the first and benevolence as the foundation, this is the consciousness that Tang Lin has been cultivated since he was a child, as a minister, it is a kind of etiquette to see the emperor salute.

When Long Xiang'er saw Tang Lin saluting, she naturally didn't want to be a mother, but she lost her etiquette, so she knelt down on one knee.

The patriarch pulled open the scroll, and a brilliant golden light burst out from above, shaking the eyes of the two, making it impossible to look up and look directly.

After reading it, the patriarch closed the scroll and said to Tang Lin: "The Ice Emperor issued an order to summon you to the palace, it is said that it is the Moon God Pavilion, and he intends to invite you to join." ”

"Moon God Pavilion?" Tang Lin was stunned.

Standing up, Tang Lin took the holy decree and opened it to see that although the words written by the civil officials on it were respectful and talented, flying with dozens of ancient seal characters, it was to the effect that he wanted to enter the palace by himself and discuss the matter of joining the Moon God Pavilion.

"Lin'er has such a talent, this Moon God Pavilion seems to be tempted. Long Xiang'er said with a smile: "It's not bad to join the Moon God Pavilion, and with this relationship, the status of our Long family will rise a lot." ”

The patriarch groaned, but shook his head, and said, "On the surface, it is our Long family who takes advantage, but in fact, it is the Moon God Pavilion that takes advantage!"

"Oh?" Long Xiang'er was surprised.

"For so many years, the Moon God Pavilion has always been the protector of the Cangxue Dynasty, in the Cangxue Dynasty, some people don't know our Long family, but there is no one who doesn't know the Moon God Pavilion!

"You mean ......"

"The Ice Emperor has long had the intention of restricting the Moon God Pavilion, and the imperial power is above all else, but the two old witches in the Moon God Pavilion are too strong, and the Ice Emperor will also move his mind and dare not act rashly, but the Moon God Pavilion has already taken precautions, and now that the people of my Long family have joined in, it is equivalent to a little relationship, and in the future, the Moon God Pavilion will have a more stable position in the Cangxue Dynasty, and it will be more unscrupulous!"

When Tang Lin heard the patriarch's words, he secretly admired in his heart, he didn't expect that behind this holy decree, there would be such a thing, and sure enough, everything related to politics and the palace was by no means as simple as it seemed.

These high-level forces possess not only strength, but also insights and wisdom that are higher than ordinary people.

"Moon God Pavilion......" Tang Lin looked into the distance, as if he saw the majestic purple pavilion.
