Chapter 11: The Mysterious Background, the Master of Dongying (3)

There was silence in the curtain for a while, and then I heard Aunt Gongsun say: "Your biological mother's name is Murong Lanyu, and she is also the junior sister of this seat. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" Nangong Yu was puzzled: "My mother is also a member of the Divine Needle Gate, why don't I know." Aunt Gongsun said: "Because the mother you know well is only your adoptive mother, Murong Qing quietly escaped after handing you over to your father, and did not stay by your side." Nangong Yu was puzzled: "Then why did my mother run away? Where did she go?" Aunt Gongsun said: "Since it is for important things, she... She doesn't want to leave you, either. As for what it is, and where the people are, I don't know. ā€

Nangong Yu said: "Then does my father know?" Aunt Gongsun said: "Maybe." Nangong Yu said: "Then why did he never mention it to me?" Aunt Gongsun said: "Then you have to ask him." Nangong Yu frowned and pondered for a moment, and said, "What kind of person is my mother?" Gongsun Auntie said: "She may not be a good person in the eyes of others, but this seat knows that she cares about you, although it is difficult to be with you, but she misses you every day." Nangong Yu said: "Have you seen my mother before? How do you know that she thinks about me every day? Aunt Gongsun said: "I have studied art with her for more than ten years, and of course I know her personality. Nangong Yu said: "Then does she also know martial arts? What does she look like?" Aunt Gongsun said: "Her martial arts are not under this seat, you debuted late, you haven't heard of her name, just ask more people on the rivers and lakes." As for her appearance, you can look in the mirror yourself, and you look eight points like her. ā€

Nangong Yu's heart suddenly moved, got up and came to the embroidered curtain, and said, "There is another thing I want to ask my seniors about." Before Aunt Gongsun could speak, he suddenly lifted the embroidered curtain and stepped in. I saw a woman kneeling on a futon, in front of her was an antique long case, on which was placed an incense burner, and light smoke curled up. The woman still had a scarf on her face, and she couldn't see her face clearly. She was not surprised to see Nangong Yu break in, nor was she angry, and said calmly: "You heard that your mother looks similar to you, but this seat doesn't see you, so you guess that this seat is your mother, right?"

Nangong Yu stared at her deep and condensed eyes, choked up and said nervously: "You... Are you really my mother?" Aunt Gongsun sighed lightly: "It seems that you can't dispel your doubts without taking off the scarf." As he spoke, he took off the scarf, revealing a delicate face, like a young beauty, but her actual age was far greater than her appearance, although she was extremely beautiful, she was completely different from Nangong Yu. Aunt Gongsun put on the scarf again, and said slowly: "It is not appropriate for women to show their heads, I don't want to make you feel too much." ā€

Nangong Yu hurriedly confessed: "The juniors are reckless and rude, please atone for the seniors." Aunt Gongsun said: "You can understand your mother's heart." Speaking of which, you are still my nephew, sit down and talk to my aunt. Nangong Yu thanked him, sat down on the futon on the side, and said, "Auntie, do you know where my father is now?" Aunt Gongsun said: "I don't know, your father is of royal blood, he should be busy with the restoration of the country, he has a group of masters to escort him, don't worry." Nangong Yu said: "It's been more than a year since I said goodbye last time, so I'm so busy that I can't even write a letter." Aunt Gongsun said: "One thing is certain, you are the most important person in the entire restoration plan, everything they do is paving the way for you, and not contacting you is to protect you." Nangong Yu sighed: "I mainly want to ask him about his mother, I always want to see my mother." Aunt Gongsun was relieved: "It's enough for you to have this heart, I believe you will see your father soon." Nangong Yu said: "Auntie, as one of the eight masters in the world, didn't my father ask you to help restore the country?" Don't mention him, let's talk about something else, I heard that you are studying art under the Heaven Pavilion, is everything going well?"

At the moment, Nangong Yu told the story of the valley, and when it came to interesting things, Aunt Gongsun smiled, and finally said: "Yao Guangzi is a martial arts person, and my aunt admires him very much, and it is also blessed that you can worship him as a teacher." Nangong Yu said: "Yes." Auntie, are you living here?Can I come to you in the future?" Aunt Gongsun said with a smile: "We came to Nanjing this time to participate in next month's 'Famous Embroidery Exhibition', and Yuhua Pavilion is just a temporary residence. Nangong Yu said curiously: "Embroidery Exhibition? Auntie's Divine Needle Gate will definitely win the championship, as far as I know, no embroidery workshop has such a high level of skill." Aunt Gongsun smiled: "But the world doesn't know." In the past, we embroidered and tailored only for practice, and some of the exercises had to be completed through them, and we never thought of using them to become famous and make money, until we heard that Zhang Qiaoshou, who had only studied tailoring for one year in this department, became popular in the capital, and then I understood that this craft was still useful, so I wanted to use it. Nangong Yu said with a smile: "I see, I believe that the name of the Divine Needle Gate will soon be able to spread all over the country." ā€

They chatted for a while, and before they knew it, it was past noon, and Aunt Gongsun said, "Stay and have lunch with Auntie." Nangong Yu remembered the matter of the Tea Martial Arts Meeting, and thought that she had been delayed, so she had to go back to see Zhu Xinqi, so as not to make her anxious, so she said: "I have been bothering my aunt for a long time, let's come back tomorrow." Aunt Gongsun said: "Tomorrow is tomorrow, we rarely see each other, what's the matter with having lunch." Nangong Yu was so enthusiastic that she had to agree.

After a long lunch, Nangong Yu was worried about Zhu Xinqi's competition and asked for resignation again. Aunt Gongsun said lightly: "Yu'er, it's okay if you don't go to the tea martial arts meeting of the Jiangdong Dart Bureau." Nangong Yu was stunned, puzzled: "Why?" Aunt Gongsun said: "Someone wants to attack those people in the rivers and lakes, so my aunt invited you here and told you your life experience." I hoped to delay you a little longer, but I didn't expect you to see through the flaws in the embroidery curtain and let us meet in advance. ā€

Nangong Yu was shocked and said, "Who wants to attack the Jiangdong Dart Bureau?" Aunt Gongsun said: "It's Dongying." Nangong Yu was surprised: "Why do the Dongying people want to deal with the Jiangdong Dart Bureau. Aunt Gongsun said: "Dongying originally took a fancy to Huang Kaishi's influence in Jiangdong and intended to woo him, but Huang Kaishi refused. The Dongying people planned to make an example of each other and deter the martial arts, so they saw the opportunity of Huang Kaishi's birthday, intending to wipe out the Jiangdong Dart Bureau and all the guests. ā€

Nangong Yu said: "This is the Ming Dynasty, how many people does Dongying want to send to deal with so many heroes of the rivers and lakes?" Gongsun Auntie said: "Killing people doesn't have to be too many, as long as the method is appropriate, one or two people are enough." Nangong Yu said: "What method do Dongying people use?" Aunt Gongsun glanced at him deeply and said, "It seems that Auntie can't keep you, right?" Nangong Yu said with firm eyes: "I have to go back, and ask Auntie to teach me." Aunt Gongsun sighed and said: "Dongying people will use 'cartilage powder' on the lunch of Jiangdong Dart Bureau, the smell of 'cartilage powder' is very light, mixed in food can not be detected at all, after poisoning, it will be weak and weak in an hour, and the internal force will be completely empty, even if there are more people who are not killed." Nangong Yu said: "Auntie does have an antidote?" Aunt Gongsun said: "Of course not, I'm not from Dongying." Nangong Yu said: "The little nephew said goodbye first." ā€
