Chapter 412: The Unsightly Truth

When Mu Chunsheng said the name Liu Yan, Mu Junhe's head buzzed as if he had been punched hard.

Because the name is both strange and familiar to him.

The reason why he is unfamiliar with the name is because he never calls out the name.

But he is familiar with the name because the person who calls it is the person closest to him.

And Mu Junhe will replace this name with another name.

And that title is "Master".

That's right, Liu Yan is the real name of his master Taijizi.

"I can't think of it! Actually, I met your master many years ago before you even apprenticed. โ€

The smile on Mu Chunsheng's face at this time was more of a naughty meaning.

"In this way, does the family teacher who accepted me as an apprentice also have something to do with my uncle?"

Hearing Mu Chunsheng say that he and his master Tai Jizi had known each other before he apprenticed, Mu Junhe immediately began to wonder if his master had something to do with Mu Chunsheng when he accepted him as an apprentice.

"Not really!"

Mu Chunsheng immediately shook his head and replied.

"I met that kid Liu Yan because of your relationship."

"Something to do with me?"

Mu Junhe didn't expect that the opportunity for Mu Chunsheng and his master Tai Jizi to meet was because of himself.

"That's right, in fact, your master has been secretly observing you for several years before taking you as an apprentice!"

"What? Master started paying attention to me before he took me as an apprentice? โ€

Mu Junhe couldn't help but be taken aback.

He had always thought that his encounter with Master was just a coincidence.

But Mu Chunsheng's current statement completely subverted his cognition.

"Yes, it was for this reason that our Yin people regarded him as a person who wanted to plot against your family."

In fact, Mu Chunsheng was embarrassed to say it clearly, at that time, they thought that Tai Jizi was a person sent by the royal family to assassinate Mu Junhe's family.

However, Mu Junhe also understands this.

"That's why the people of the Yin Clan who were responsible for protecting your family had a conflict with your master at that time."

"And how does it end?"

Mu Junhe immediately asked curiously at this time.

For a long time, there has always been a mystery in the hearts of Mu Junhe and the other senior brothers, and that is how strong their master Tai Jizi's martial arts are.

According to Mu Junhe's thoughts, since he can train his disciples to become martial arts masters, he must also be martial arts masters himself.

However, what made Mu Junhe feel strange was that Tai Jizi had always claimed that his martial arts were common, and the martial arts of these disciples had actually surpassed him as a master.

But Mu Junhe always felt that it was just his master's humble words.

At the same time, he also firmly believes that his master must be a master of martial arts but unwilling to make a move.

And now he had heard that his master had had a conflict with the Mu clan, so he wanted to get a glimpse of his master's skills.

"Hehe, of course, the masters sent out by the Yin Clan have all been defeated! Otherwise, where would I be able to come forward in person! โ€

Mu Chunsheng said with a smile.

However, although Mu Chunsheng said it with a smile, Mu Junhe still heard a domineering spirit from his tone.

At the same time, he also felt the momentum of a martial artist in Mu Chunsheng's body.

Therefore, Mu Junhe couldn't help but take a long breath, he didn't expect that Mu Chunsheng, who was trembling when he walked with a silver thread in front of him, was also a martial arts master.

"What? Little Junhe, do you look down on my uncle? โ€

Mu Chunsheng saw what he was thinking from Mu Junhe's surprised expression.

So he said jokingly.

"Junhe doesn't dare!"

Mu Junhe immediately realized that his thoughts were a little disrespectful to Mu Chunsheng now, so he hurriedly bowed to Mu Chunsheng and apologized.

"Alas, the years are not forgiving, no matter how heroic the previous one was, in the end, only the remnants of this body and endless memories remained!"

As he spoke, Mu Chunsheng picked up a yellow leaf from the ground.

Then he pinched the autumn leaf in his hand, and then with a slight force of his wrist, the ginkgo biloba leaf shaped like a folding fan flew out of his hand in an instant.

This soft yellow leaf does not flutter like the autumn leaves falling from the trees.

It flew out with a "whoosh" like a hidden weapon.

Under Mu Junhe's surprised gaze, the yellow leaf crossed the distance of three or four meters and was directly nailed to the bark of the ginkgo tree.

Mu Junhe was stunned by Mu Chunsheng's casually exposed hand.

He could see clearly that the fallen leaf didn't happen to be stuck to the bark.

The fallen leaf cut directly through the top layer of the bark and then directly embedded in the bark.

"What a terrifying force!"

Mu Junhe couldn't help but think in his heart.

Mu Chunsheng couldn't help but feel proud in his heart when he saw the look of surprise on Mu Junhe's face.

In fact, Mu Junhe didn't know that Mu Chunsheng's seemingly casual moment was actually infused with the strength of his own body.

"Didn't that teacher explain why he was secretly observing me?"

Originally, Mu Junhe wanted to ask if Mu Chunsheng and his master had a final battle after that, and at the same time, he was more curious about which strength of the two sides was stronger or weaker.

But his words had already reached his lips, but he swallowed them back.

Because he suddenly realized that if the two sides win, no matter who wins, the image of the other side in his mind will be greatly affected.

So he simply didn't ask about the results.

But Mu Junhe began to wonder why his master Tai Jizi secretly observed himself before taking him as an apprentice!

"I asked him the same question at the beginning, and the answer he gave was that you have a special identity and are related to him, and the reason why I secretly pay attention to you is to protect you!"

Mu Chunsheng thought for a moment and then said slowly.

"Protect me? Could it be that the royal family ever sent someone to do something to us? โ€

Mu Junji did not doubt what Tae Jizi said.

After all, he is his own master, and after so many years of getting along, Mu Junhe can clearly feel his love for him.

"Although we didn't find the person he said he did to you afterwards, we still found some clues after careful investigation!"

Mu Chunsheng didn't hide it and said directly.

"But at that time, it was the reign of Emperor Shengshu, could it be that he sent people in the first place?"

Mu Junhe couldn't believe it.

If the original emperor was Emperor Shengheng, he might still believe it, after all, Emperor Shengheng was ruthless and moody.

And he also personally ordered himself to be hunted down.

But Emperor Shengshu is not a man of great talent, and his personality is relatively introverted and soft.

How could such a man send men to assassinate him?

"You feel something is wrong, don't you?"

The smile on Mu Chunsheng's face at this time had completely disappeared.

There was an unsettling chill in his gaze.

"Could it be that it is not the Holy Emperor who wants to put our vein to death, but someone else?"

At this time, Mu Junhe had already begun to carefully analyze who was going to put his own vein to death.

It stands to reason that their line has long since declared their independence from the royal family, and they do not have their own fiefdoms.

A branch of the royal family like theirs should not pose any threat to the emperor.

Therefore, there is no special reason, Emperor Shengshu should not be stupid enough to send someone to remove such a royal branch as them.

You must know that the emperor has to take a great risk to do this kind of thing.

Once this news leaked out, the emperor would inevitably bear the infamy of killing his kindred.

"At first, we also thought that this incident was done by Emperor Shengshu, but later after our investigation, we found that Emperor Shengshu actually didn't know about this matter at all."

"Emperor Shengshu doesn't know anything?"

Mu Chunsheng's words made Mu Junhe realize that this matter was probably extremely complicated.

"But our line has announced that we have completely withdrawn from the royal family, which shows that we already have any idea of the throne and power, so who wants to kill us in this case?"

Mu Junhe didn't understand who they had offended at the beginning.

"Actually, the person who wanted to get rid of your lineage was the original Emperor Cheng, the current Emperor Yu, Emperor Shengheng!"

Mu Chunsheng immediately gave a person that Mu Junhe couldn't even think of.

"How is this possible? Emperor Shengheng was only the son of Emperor Cheng at the beginning, and later Emperor Shengyin succeeded to the throne, he was just a vassal king, until the later Emperor Shengjing and Emperor Shengshu, he was just an imperial uncle, what reason did he have to kill our lineage? โ€

Mu Junhe asked puzzled.

"Since I have said this, then I want to ask you why your grandfather was deprived of all royal privileges by Emperor Shengcheng and reduced to a commoner?"

After Mu Chunsheng's reminder, Mu Junhe felt that his head suddenly became clear.

"Could it be that my grandfather caused the trouble in the first place?"

At this time, Mu Junhe had already remembered what his father had told him about his grandfather.

At the beginning, because his grandmother was just an ordinary palace maid, she was lucky enough to be favored by Emperor Shengcheng overnight, so she became pregnant with his grandfather.

Later, although his grandmother was not a mother and was named a concubine by virtue of her son, she finally broke away from the identity of the palace maid by virtue of her son's identity.

But people often say that since ancient times, flowers have not been red for a hundred days, and people have not been good for a thousand days.

Since his great-grandmother gave birth to a prince, he was inevitably jealous of others.

And not all the concubines in the harem can be as lucky as his grandmother to give birth to a prince.

Therefore, when his grandfather was nineteen years old, a favorite concubine of Emperor Shengcheng was jealous because she could not give birth to an heir for Emperor Shengcheng for a long time, so she directly assassinated her grandmother.

Later, when his grandfather found out about this, his grandfather angrily beheaded the evil concubine and the eunuchs involved.

It was precisely because of this incident that his grandfather was stripped of all his titles and rewards by Emperor Shengcheng, and demoted him to a commoner.

"Could it be that the evil concubine that my grandfather killed at the beginning has nothing to do with Emperor Shengheng?"

Mu Junhe immediately thought of this only possibility.

"Yes, that woman does have a lot to do with Emperor Shengheng."

Mu Chunchang sighed and said.

"Mo is not ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

Suddenly, Mu Junhe thought of a possibility that he really couldn't speak.

"I think you should have guessed that to put it irreverently, your great-grandfather, Emperor Shengcheng, is a faint king who is full of greed for pleasure."

Mu Chunsheng said mercilessly.

Mu Junhe has no objection to this.

After all, what Emperor Shengcheng did at the beginning is known to everyone in the world.

And for his grandfather, Mu Junhe, he is also extremely disgusted.

"At that time, Emperor Shengcheng had another big hobby in addition to being obsessed with pills, which was to covet women, and his princes also knew their father's hobby, so they offered him all kinds of beauties."

Speaking of this, Mu Junhe has completely understood.

"So the evil concubine at the beginning was sent to the palace by Emperor Shengheng?"

"You guessed right, that woman was indeed given to Emperor Shengcheng by Emperor Shengheng, and this woman was one of his own concubines before being sent to the palace by Shengheng."

When Mu Chunsheng said this, he couldn't help but sigh and shook his head.

He hated such unethical things.

"How can there be such a ridiculous thing?"

Mu Junhe originally only thought that this woman was selected by Emperor Shengheng to be sent to the palace, but he didn't expect that this evil girl turned out to be Shengheng's own concubine.

"That's not right! There should be palace rules in the palace, and you can't enter the palace unless you are perfect? โ€

Hearing Mu Junhe's question, Mu Chunsheng couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha! Palace rules? Do you think that the immorality of Emperor Shengcheng would care about this? โ€

"Shameless!"

Mu Junhe was also so angry that he gritted his teeth at this time.

"At the beginning, the princes of Emperor Shengcheng tried their best to send beautiful women to him in order to win the favor of Emperor Shengcheng, and these princes wanted to add chips to themselves in the heart of Emperor Shengcheng through the pillow wind of these women, and Shengheng was worried that the women sent out could not do their best to contribute to themselves, so he gritted his teeth and dredged up the relationship and sent his concubine into the palace."

Mu Chunsheng slowly said the matter.

"So my grandfather killed that woman, which is equivalent to completely offending Emperor Shengheng, which is why he wanted to destroy our lineage later?"

Through Mu Chunsheng's combing, Mu Junhe finally understood the ins and outs of the whole thing.

"In this way, when Emperor Shengheng said that he wanted to recruit me into the palace and serve him, it was just an excuse to take the opportunity to get rid of me?"

Immediately, Mu Junhe suddenly thought of what Emperor Shengheng wanted to recruit him into the imperial court for his use.

"Yes, fortunately, you directly refused at the beginning, otherwise once you enter the imperial capital, he will have ten thousand ways to devote himself to death."

Mu Chunsheng said to the moon in the sky.

"How can the Dayu Dynasty be immortal in the hands of such a person?"

Mu Junhe could only look at the moon and sighed secretly.

"Yes! According to what your master said, it has been almost 400 years since the establishment of my Dayu Dynasty, and 400 years have already allowed those powerful vassal kings to oppress the people to the extreme, and it is time to change the dynasty. โ€

When Mu Chunsheng said this, his tone was full of helplessness and emotion.

"If Uncle Ancestor knew, why didn't he try to change these things like everyone else? After all, the Dayu royal family was established by the Mu family? โ€

Mu Junhe couldn't understand why as the Great Elder of the Mu Clan's Yin Clan, since he had already known many years ago that the Great Yu Dynasty was about to fall, why didn't he try to avoid such a situation?

"There are some things that cannot be done by manpower, and the purpose of our Yin Clan has been to ensure the continuation of the Mu clan's bloodline since ancient times, as for those so-called imperial hegemony, they are all things that the Yang Clan should work hard for, and it has nothing to do with us."

Mu Chunsheng said in a very flat tone.
