Chapter 56, The Dong Family
"Poof!"
A headless corpse fell in front of him.
Dong Huan, who was holding a red waist knife, was startled, clenched the waist knife with both hands, and shrunk her neck.
The familiar blue narrow-necked robe, just by looking at the figure, you can recognize this person as Zhao De, but the head on the neck is missing.
After a few breaths, the headless corpse was still lying on the ground, without any movement, Dong Wan was bold, leaned in front of the headless corpse, and stretched out her hand to touch the corpse that was bleeding.
"Graceful." The voice of wishing no harm suddenly came from behind.
Dong Wan shrunk up and stood up, turned to look at Zhu Wuxian, her eyes were tearful, with fear, "Brother Wuxian." ”
Zhu Wuxian comforted, "It's okay, he has been killed by me, I'll take you away, when you go home, I'll kill Zhao Ge again, and you'll be free." ”
"Hmm." Dong Wan threw down the red waist knife in her hand and shrank into Zhu Wuxian's arms.
Throwing the head in his hand next to the corpse, he reached out and summoned the red knife and ink stick, and a fire charm appeared on his fingertips.
Spiritual power poured in, and red flames erupted from the fire talisman, covering Zhao De's body.
Dong Wan looked down at the palm-sized blue bag in her hand and quietly put it into her arms.
With a wave of his hand, the fire talisman burned around, igniting the entire Zhengde Hall.
"Let's go, someone will come in a moment." Zhu Wuxian picked up Dong Huan, and a five-colored streamer rose under his feet, sweeping into the air.
"Lou Wan, where is your home? I haven't been here in over a decade. Zhu Wuxian asked.
Dong Wan leaned on Zhu Wuxian like a kitten, "Before I entered the palace, my family moved to Zhuangzi outside the city, and after the attack, I never went out again, and I don't know if my father and mother are in Zhuangzi outside the city now." ”
There was more sadness in Dong Huan's words.
"Then let's go to the Zhuangzi outside the city first." The five-colored streamer under his feet surged, dragging out a long tail mark.
In the small hall, a middle-aged man with a little wealth, without saying a word, sat on the main seat, exuding majesty.
A somewhat emaciated woman, with a handkerchief in her hand, covered her face and sobbed incessantly.
"Dad, mother."
Dong Wan suddenly appeared in the hall and looked at the two excitedly.
"Graceful?" The haggard woman was a little incredible.
"Mother, it's me." Dong Wan was about to hug the haggard woman with a crying voice.
"Hmph, no matter which thief you are in the rivers and lakes or who is a doorman in the court, you dare to pretend to be an old man and an only daughter to come and deceive." Dong Yunshu stood up, stopped in front of Dong Huan, and shouted coldly, "There is no family heirloom of the Zhu family here, you are in the wrong place, hurry up."
Although the old man has hated the emperor and is not treated well in the court, but in the end there is still the official position of the prime minister, if you wait to pretend to be the old man's daughter to cheat here, the old man does not want this face, and also go to your master to ask for clarification. ”
The haggard woman also came to her senses when she heard Dong Yunshu's words, half-hidden behind her master, and looked at Dong Huan blankly, although she was pretending to be Huanhuan to deceive, it might be good to look at Huanhuan with this face.
Since entering the palace, I haven't seen her in all these years, and I don't know how she's doing...
Thinking about it, tears fell on the haggard woman's face again.
"Dad, what did you say? I'm a lady, I'm not here to lie to you, my brother rescued me from the palace. Dong Wan said, still wanting to get close to the two.
Dong Yunshu's face did not change, and he still looked at Dong Wan coldly.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Don't you know me? I'm your lady! Dong Huan's tears rained down, the father and mother she missed day and night did this to herself, did they forget themselves?
"Uncle Dong." Good luck with no injuries to take a step forward.
Only then did Dong Yunshu notice that there was a tall man standing beside him.
"What? It's so soft that I want to give the old man a hard one. Dong Yunshu's eyes turned sideways, and the extraordinary courage that the temple had cultivated for many years made him not have the slightest fear.
"I am Zhu Wuxian, I followed my father into Beijing when I was ten years old, and I lived in Dong Mansion at that time." Zhu Wuxian explained, "I went to the palace to kill Zhao Ge, and when I met Huanhuan, I brought her out. “
Dong Yunshu's expression changed slightly, "Since you said that you wish you no harm, there are three maids by your mother's side, what is the name of the tallest one?" ”
"There is only one maid by my mother's side, called Lantern Festival." Zhu Wuxian looked at the haggard woman who was half-hidden behind Dong Yunshu and kept wiping her tears, and said, "Listen to my mother, Lantern Xiao is from the north and followed her father into Beijing to do business.
As a result, she lost her capital, and her father contracted the wind and cold again, and in order to survive, he sent her to Dong Mansion to be a person.
After Mrs. Dong found out, she saw that Lantern Festival was delicate and dexterous, so she gave her to my mother, and she could go home to take care of my mother in normal times. ”
When the haggard woman heard this, she became excited, "Master, yes, yes, he is right, he is not harmed, this is really a grace." ”
Dong Yunshu stretched out his hand to comfort the woman behind him, and looked at Zhu Wuxian, "If you are Zhu Wuxian, how did you survive in the first place?" Where have you gone in recent years? ”
"At the beginning, everyone in the mansion fought desperately, I escaped, and over the years I worshiped the immortal gate of Yan Kingdom and practiced immortal law, and I came here to kill Zhao Ge and comfort my family for the dead." Zhu Wuxian said with hatred.
Dong Yunshu believed nine points, stopped the haggard woman's arm and let go.
The haggard lady rushed forward, hugged Dong Huan, and cried, "Huanhuan." ”
"Mother!" Dong Wan cried in her arms too.
Dong Yunshu's lips twitched twice, and tears appeared in the corners of his eyes.
"The virtuous nephew has killed Zhao Ge." Dong Yunshu put away his inner emotions and turned his head to ask.
Zhu Wuxian shook his head, "No, Zhao Ge went out for a private visit and never found him." ”
"If you haven't killed Zhao Ge, you will bring out Huanhuan, there are immortals in the palace, virtuous nephew, you should take advantage of the fact that the matter has not been revealed, and send Huanhuan back." Dong Yunshu sighed,
"Otherwise, I'm afraid it will bring disaster to the Dong family."
"Sir, what did you say?"
"Dad, I'm not going back!"
The haggard woman and Dong Wan looked at Dong Yunshu together.
"I heard that everyone in the court said that Zhao Ge is very interested in Huanhuan, if he knows that Huanhuan was taken back to the Dong family, I am afraid that the Dong family will also follow in the footsteps of the Zhu family." Dong Yunshu let out a long sigh and personally sent his old only daughter into the deep palace, he naturally couldn't bear it.
"Uncle Dong, don't worry, the Taihemen monks in the palace have been killed by me." Zhu Wuxian's eyes flashed, "Zhao Ge is in the north at this time, I will get up immediately, Zhao Ge will not survive today." ”
When Dong Yunshu heard this, his eyes also flashed with essence, "If this is the case, I can support the puppet in advance, and I will definitely be able to ensure the integrity of my Dong family." ”
Zhu Wuxian turned around and left, "I'll do it immediately." ”
"Wait." Dong Yunshu stopped Zhu Wuxian, "When your father came to the capital, he noticed that something was wrong, and left a letter to you here for me to pass on to you.
I don't know who released the wind and said, you wish your family to be able to guard the border all by a family secret technique, and this secret technique is here with me, so many people have repeatedly come to pay attention to the family letter.
Now that you're here, you just happened to hand over that letter to you, and I also had a heartfelt matter. ”
"Family letters?" Zhu Wu's heart rippled, since he left the Zhu family and drifted alone in the Xuanyi Sect, he had not heard the name of home for many years.
"I put the letter elsewhere, and I won't be able to get it for a while, I'm afraid I'll have to wait for a night." Dong Yunshu saw the strangeness of Zhu Wuxian's appearance and said,
"You can wait here with peace of mind, I will let people pick it up, and then secretly set up a first move, so that the news of Zhao Ge's death will come from the north, and I can help other royal relatives to seize the throne."
"Yes, uncle, I've been waiting for a few years, and it's not too late." Zhu Wuxian replied, "If there is any obstacle, I can help my uncle get rid of the trouble." ”
Dong Yunshu shook his head, "The battle for the temple relies on scheming, and killing people with a knife has been successful, I have lived on the temple for decades, and I have my own means."
Your father discussed with me at the beginning and promised to marry you Huanhuan, and you should talk to Huanhuan well. ”
Zhu Wuxian heard the deep meaning of Dong Yunshu's words, "Uncle Dong rest assured, the relationship between Lou Wan and my brother and sister, I will make a good life to appease Wan Wan." ”
After being an official for many years, Dong Yunshu naturally understood Zhu Wuwu's thoughts, so he didn't say anything, walked outside the courtyard, and called an old servant, "You go and tell Lao Rong that I want to eat fish, and let him bring two ten-pound golden carp to the house." ”
"Yes, sir." The old servant bowed and stepped back.
Night.
Zhu Wuxian stood in the courtyard outside the hall, quietly watching the full moon hang high, sprinkling moonlight like water.
"Brother Wuxing, why are you standing here?" Dong Wan changed into a goose-yellow dress and walked from behind to hold Zhu Wuwu's arm.
Zhu Wuxian moved his steps lightly, and he didn't know how to dodge away, "I'm used to cultivating in the immortal gate, and I can't sleep." ”
"Can't you cultivate here? I've never seen what cultivation looks like. Dong Wan raised her eyes softly, and the affection in her eyes flowed like water.
"Outside the immortal gate, among the mundane, there is no aura gathering, and cultivation is impossible." Zhu Wuxian avoided injury, and persuaded him, "It's late at night, your body is weak, let's go back to the room." ”
"When Dad gets the letter back for you, are you going to leave?" Dong Wan still looked for Zhu Wu's eyes.
"Yes."
"Won't you ever come back?" There was a hint of strangeness in Dong Huan's words.
"Hmm."
"Hurt brother, can you take me away?" Dong Wan threw herself into Zhu Wuxian's arms, hugged her tightly and didn't let go, "I know that I am a broken flower and a willow is not worthy of you, as long as you can take me, even if you let me be a concubine, I am willing." ”
Zhu Wuxian twitched his body, wanted to break free, and said softly, "Huanhuan, don't worry, my brother will come back to see you, and I will come back when you remarry." ”
"I don't want you to be my brother, I want you to be my husband." Dong Wan hugged her tightly, and her whole body was pasted with Zhu Wuxian, "Uncle Zhu and my father have already agreed that they will marry me to you, and you marry me is also Uncle Zhu's meaning." ”
Zhu Wuxian exerted a slight force, broke away from Dong Huan's palm, and turned around, "I have already stepped into the fairy gate, and I don't want to be nostalgic for the love of children in the world." “
"Did you meet a better woman in the Immortal Gate, that's why you don't want me?" Dong Wan looked at Zhu Wuwu's back and wanted to cry.
