Chapter 140
Because of the curfew, the guests dispersed quickly, leaving only Le Zhengquan and his wife, Le Zhengzhi and his wife, Le Zhengfang, Le Zhengying, as well as Nangong Pavilion Master, Junior Pavilion Master, and of course Le Zheng Qiming, Le Zheng Shuiling and Le Zhengli.
Le Zhengli suddenly jumped out, intending to scare Le Zheng Shuiling, but unexpectedly she was frightened to vomit, and the vomit went onto his shoes.
"Hehe, Uncle Master."
"Hey, how much alcohol did you drink?"
Le Zhengli used magic to clean up the vomit.
"She drank too much hangover soup. Although Miss Yunxiu said that it's okay to drink more of it, did you drink more than ten bowls in one go?"
"If you don't want to drink it, I'll give it to you."
Seeing that she still wanted to vomit, Le Zheng Qiming turned her to Le Zhengli, who quickly moved ten feet away. Fortunately, she did not vomit.
"Oh, Shui Ling is drunk?"
Le Zhengqiming came over and planned to search Le Zhengzhi for hangover remedies to give to her, which made Le Zhengzhi giggle.
"She's not just drunk. Find something to hold her breath and get the contents of her stomach vomited out."
Baizhi covered her nose and looked at them with disgust. Seeing that everyone was coming, Lezheng Qiming could only take the sobering medicine given by Baizhi and pull Lezheng Shuiling to vomit somewhere else.
Originally, Le Zheng Yuhua also wanted to leave, but Pavilion Master Nangong spoke first, so he had no choice but to stay.
"Is this our groom? Let me take a closer look."
The head of Nangong Pavilion is named Nangong Haoyue. Although she is already thirty-five years old, time has not left any mark on her.
Her skin was fair and elastic, and her figure was plump and graceful. Le Zheng Yuhua was already over 30 years old, so it was inevitable that he would be attracted to her. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and looked away.
"Yuhua meets Pavilion Master Nangong."
"Le Zheng Yuhua? Is this your name?"
"Yes."
"Do you know me?"
"I'm sorry Yuhua, I've only met a few of Miss Mu's friends."
"To be honest, I don't know Miss Mu, and we are not good friends. Only she knows why she said that, but it saved us a lot of trouble. I am now her guest, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I can only stay in your house for a few days."
Le Zheng Yuhua looked at the people present. The eyes of Le Zhengfang and Le Zhengzhi seemed to tell him that Nangong Haoyue's visit was inextricably linked to them, and they did not want to pry into other people's secrets.
"Please do as you please, Pavilion Master Nangong. Yuhua still has something to ask Uncle Quan for advice, so I'll excuse myself for now."
Since he could avoid it so consciously, they just let him go.
Now only Master and disciple Le Zhengfang, Le Zhengzhi and his wife, as well as Pavilion Master Nangong and Junior Pavilion Master were left. Le Zhengfang cast a spell, and instantly they were as if at the bottom of the sea, unable to see the surface of the sea.
"With this spell, we can talk in peace."
"Master, I'm worried that someone is watching in the dark."
"I remember that Yun Xiu released the barrier. I guess she wouldn't tolerate anyone running around in her barrier."
"Then she would know us, wouldn't she?"
"Miss Mu helped us. No matter what her intentions were, she should be fine even if she knew. Even if she told others, someone with a different surname would have to believe her."
Le Zhengfang focused his attention on the young man next to Nangong Haoyue. He was Nangong Haoyue's adopted son and the young master of Donghai Pavilion, Nangong Lin.
At Nangong Haoyue's signal, he took a step forward and knelt.
"Lin'er greets aunt."
"Get up quickly and let me take a good look."
Le Zhengfang couldn't help but tear up when looking at him, yet she couldn't suppress her happy smile.
"He's already this big."
Bai Zhi couldn't help but turn around. She had never seen Nangong Lin, but when she thought that he was the one Le Zhengzhi exchanged for their son, Bai Zhi couldn't help but burst into tears. Le Zhengzhi could only come over and hug her.
"Lin'er greets Master Zhi and Doctor Baizhi. It was you who saved Lin'er, and I have no way to repay you."
Bai Zhi wiped away her tears and came over to help Nangong Lin, who was lying on the ground.
"Let me take a good look at you."
"Yes."
"Pavilion Master Nangong really takes good care of you."
"Mother treats Lin like her own son and trains him as the future leader of Donghai Pavilion. She hopes that Lin can return to Lezheng with honor in the future and manage Lezheng for father, thus fulfilling his last wish."
"Le Zheng is different from many families in the Dao League today. It is not a case of sons inheriting their fathers' businesses. Even if you return to Le Zheng with glory in the future, it will be difficult for you to inherit the position of the head of the family, let alone manage Le Zheng."
"Aunt, please rest assured. The head of Lezheng is the one who is capable. Lin has heard from mother a long time ago. If Lin can only inherit the position of head of the family through his father, it would be a shame to mother's careful cultivation."
Le Zhengfang was very pleased, but when he thought that he couldn't return to Le Zheng yet, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Alas, my aunt is incompetent and cannot let you return to your roots early. Although I govern together and have the same rights as my senior brother, and no one is lower than the other, in fact, I don't have much real power in my hands, and there are even fewer things I can decide."
"Senior Brother Qin is only slightly better than you. He can't have the final say on truly important matters."
"Yes, nowadays, music is becoming more and more scattered."
Nangong Haoyue stepped forward and said, "Excuse me for being frank, but Le Zheng's barrier is much weaker than it was seventeen years ago. Judging from your current situation, it's hard to say how long Le Zheng can defend Jimen Pass. Have you ever thought about the people in the city? How are you going to deal with it?"
"The people of Jimen Pass live here because they trust us, the Le Zheng. They are our Le Zheng's last glory. We have thought about protecting them, even if we have to use extraordinary methods. However, our Le Zheng also needs support, and they are the pillars."
"It is both a pillar and a shackle, you know it very well."
"Since Lezheng has been branded as a traitor for thousands of years, we have no way out."
Le Zhengzhi couldn't help but hold Bai Zhi's hand tightly. Bai Zhi also knew something, but they couldn't say it out loud.
Just like they have already lost Le Zheng Zuo Si and He Jia Zhu, if they tell others, they will definitely lose more.
They have no idea what the real truth is, and they can't measure whether it's worth it, so all they can see are the immediate benefits.
Yun Xiu lowered the window and walked in. In her eyes, she could only see the calm sea surface. She could not see the people there, let alone hear their conversation. She could only feel that they were under the water.
"Is there something interesting going on between Donghai Pavilion and Le Zheng? Why did Miss help them lie?"
"I'm just interested in the young man next to Nangong Haoyue."
"Miss, are you interested in him? You are now Le Zheng's wife. I remember that Donghai Pavilion did not accept the invitation last time. It's a pity that they are also one of the candidates we are considering."
"Marry him? Then you'll be Le Zheng's wife, right?"
"Miss, what you mean is...he is Le Zheng's man?"
Mu Xin smiled and did not answer, so Yun Xiu knew the answer. But even if his father was from Le Zheng, his last name was Nangong now, and Yun Xiu could not understand why he was still considered Le Zheng's man.
I wanted to ask Mu Xin again, but she was already leaning against the bed, looking a little sleepy.
"I don't think the son-in-law will come tonight, so you should take a rest first."
"Tonight? He may not come in the future. Well, I can't choose a husband and let someone else lose my virginity, right? It's not because he kept me awake, but because a few mice are bothering me. Go and deal with them. Remember to leave them alive so that you can bring a message back to their master. My Mu Xin's barrier is not so easy to break through."
