Chapter Forty-Seven: Confession of Relatives by Blood

A few days later, everyone finally came to the Ximen family, the building of the Ximen family is indeed majestic, especially the two pairs of stone lions in front of the house, the four big characters 'Ximen family' stand on the door beam of the gate, the Ximen family looks like just a mountain villa, but after entering, you will find that its range is wide, which is eye-catching.

Although the Ximen family is located in the territory of Quanzhou City, it is not built in the city, but between the mountains in the southwest of Quanzhou City, there is only one way in and out, it can be said that it is a husband and a man, and the backyard is hundreds of zhang high cliffs, the ancestors of the Ximen family have to say that it is after careful consideration, there is a water source in the villa, you can grow food and vegetables, that is, the Ximen family is attacked by the major forces, as long as you hold the road in front of the Ximen family, the Ximen family can be self-sufficient even if it is blocked.

The Baizhang cliff of the back mountain, even the first-class master is difficult to climb, the left and right sides and the front are lofty mountains, which are left countless traps by the Ximen family, after hundreds of years of countless martial arts people's lives, it proves that only the road in front of the Ximen family is the safest passage.

As everyone entered the Ximen family, Shangguan Fei also saw the mistress of the Ximen family, Murong Piaoxue, the eldest young master Ximen Hao, the second young master Ximen Zhao, and Ximen Town's wife Zhong Qian, Xu Min, and sons Ximen Yue, Ximen Yu, and Ximen Kang. Daughter Simon Xue. Murong Piaoxue is a hostess's demeanor, which makes Shangguan Fei and the two like a spring breeze.

Ximen Hao looks mature and steady, Ximen Zhao's eyes are above the top, Zhong Qian. Xu Min looks like a good wife and mother, Ximen Yue and Ximen Yu look like humble sons, Ximen Kang is a big man, Xu Min is lively and active, perhaps as the only princess of the Ximen family, Xu Min has a good relationship with everyone present.

The Ximen family had a scene of family harmony, but Shangguan Fei found a hint of it, Ximen Yue and Ximen Hao got closer, and Ximen Yu and Ximen Kang were closer to Ximen Zhao. And although everyone looked like they welcomed the return of the third lady's mother and son, Shangguan Fei found that this was not the case, at least the jealousy flashed in Ximen Zhao's eyes, but he did not escape Shangguan Fei's eyes, only Ximen Xue surrounded Ximen Hu (Erdan) and asked questions.

After Shangguan Fei and Li Qingmeng met with their elders, they were arranged in a small courtyard with a guest room. As a first-class force in the rivers and lakes, the Ximen family is really not covered by its own wealth, and the two of them can be said to have eaten all the delicacies of the mountains and seas in a few days. Li Qingmeng saw Shangguan Fei eating and drinking: "Brother Fei, I didn't lie to you, my uncle's family is a rich man, I can eat these every year when I go to my uncle's house, and I used to be happiest in a year than to come to my uncle's house." ”

Shangguan Fei said: "Meng'er, aren't you the daughter of the Hou Mansion, don't you have these things at home?" Li Qingmeng said: "Brother Fei, my father just has an empty title, and a certain amount of money, where he can afford it, and my father is not very picky about food." By the way, Brother Fei, how is your Tai Chi perfecting? These days, you went to find a disciple of the family every day, and now they are afraid of you?"

Shangguan Fei said: "Taijiquan has almost been perfected, but I am afraid that the Ximen family will not be too calm in the future, and the wind and rain are coming." Li Qingmeng said: "What's wrong with my uncle's house? Shangguan Fei said: "Do you pay attention to the fact that there are rumors about the Ximen family now, and they all question the appearance of Ximen Hu, and they have a clear eye. ”

Li Qingmeng said: "When the third lady left the Ximen family, there was no sign of pregnancy, and after ten years, she actually returned to the Ximen family with a child today, and it is reasonable for them to have doubts." Shangguan Fei said: "Meng'er, I'm afraid it's not like this, someone should be deliberately spreading rumors behind the scenes, although the Ximen family is not a royal family, but it is also strictly ruled, if there are no people to encourage it, how can anyone dare to chew their tongues." ”

Li Qingmeng said: "Brother Fei, you must be too careful, I feel that my cousin and cousin are good." Shangguan Fei said: "Then we'll wait and see." Meng'er, we haven't practiced for a long time, and today we're going to practice. Soon a day passed in the sparring between the two, and the next day the two were ready to say goodbye to Ximenqing.

It's just that before they got close to the hall, they heard the sound of Ximenqing swearing and smashing cups. When the two heard it, it turned out that it was because the descendants of the Ximen family were constantly spreading rumors about the identity of Ximen Hu, which made Ximen Qing furious, and even threatened to kill those troubled subordinates.

As Shangguan Fei and Li Qingmeng came to the hall, they saw Ximending facing Ximen Qing and said: "Big brother, this is not the time to punish those subordinates, the most important thing is to quell this rumor, make this rumor self-defeating, and restore the reputation of my Ximen family." Ximen Qing said: "Second brother, do you mean that you want me to recognize Hu'er with blood?" Ximen said: "Big brother, do you have any other good ways?"

Ximen Qing said: "Okay, if you recognize it with blood, you will recognize your relatives with blood, once it is proved that Hu'er is my son, I will invite celebrities from all walks of life in Quanzhou City to celebrate Hu'er's return to the Ximen family, give him the identity he should have, and let some people with ulterior motives shut up." Meng'er, Xiaofei, since you are all here, you can just serve as a witness. ”

Shangguan Fei didn't want to get involved in these family grievances and said: "Uncle, Meng'er and I came today to prepare to resign, we have been disturbing for a few days, and we are already preparing to go to Beijing tomorrow." Ximen Qing said: "Xiaofei, why are you in such a hurry? Today you will help me to testify, the day after tomorrow I will prepare a banquet for all the celebrities in Quanzhou City, you are the benefactor of Hu'er, how can there be no reason." Meng'er, it's decided, you can leave if you want to, but you must set up a feast for Hu'er. ”

Shangguan Fei and Li Qingmeng saw Ximen Qingyan's decision, so they didn't shirk. Then I saw that the main members of the Ximen family had already arrived, and after everyone sat down, Ximen Qing said today's theme. As the head of the family, Ximenqing has no right to oppose at all.

Soon an old mother took a bowl of water and put it in the center of the hall, and Ximen Hu was called to his side by Ximen Qing and said: "Hu'er, today we will use facts to prove your innocence, good, wait a minute, you just need to cut your finger a little and leave a drop of blood." ”

Ximen Hu looked at the third lady with red eyes, and then looked at Ximen Qing, and then cut his finger helplessly, and a drop of blood fell into the bowl. Seeing this, Ximen Qing also took out a dagger and made a cut in his finger, only to see a drop of blood quickly sink to the bottom of the bowl.

Everyone watched as the two drops of blood fused with each other at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a moment later, the two drops of blood had fused into one. Ximenqing said with a smile: "I just said that the tiger is my species, what else do you have to say?"
