Chapter 613 Keep a secret
"Daughter, what exactly is going on?"
"Back then, after I was captured by Wu Jin, I also wanted to use my own identity to save myself."
"And during that time, everyone was saying that King Xiling was looking for his daughter. Every minute and every second, I wanted to tell them that I was King Xiling's daughter."
"Then why?"
"Who dares to kidnap my daughter, King Xiling, in this desert?"
Shangguan Wuhen couldn't figure it out at all.
Shangguan Jin said leisurely:
"That's because when I was taken in, I heard a secret conversation between Ugin and several people."
"They are talking about a very terrible secret. They even go into the desert just to kill you."
"After I heard this secret, I didn't dare to reveal my identity anymore. I was afraid that Wu Jin would sell me to them and they would take me as a hostage."
"I know your love for me, father. If they take me as a hostage and let you die, would you do such a thing for me?"
"So, I only had one hidden, and then I never heard any news again."
Shangguan Wuhen held his forehead and said with deep disgust:
"It's all because of me. If it weren't for me, it wouldn't be possible to harm my precious daughter."
"I have been keeping a secret for too long and I am really tired."
"The person you mentioned assassinated me during that time. I still have the impression, but I later regretted it."
Shangguan Jin said in surprise:
"Dad, what do you mean you regretted it?"
Shangguan Wuhen stood up, walked to the window, and said quietly:
"I built the Xiling Palace here just for one person and to keep a secret."
"But it was this secret that caused me so many fatal disasters."
"At the beginning, I still fought hard. Since you disappeared, I always thought that it was my enemies who captured you."
"So from that moment on, I changed my approach."
"I no longer choose to fight against them, but join them unconditionally and provide them with a lot of intelligence."
"Of course, I used part of my secret to gain their trust, so from then on, I joined them and worked with them."
"Dad, what secret are you keeping?" Shangguan Jin was anxious.
Shangguan Wuhen shook his head, "I can't say."
"………………"
Shangguan Jin was too lazy to ask any more questions, stood up and said:
"Oops, we, father and daughter, have been chatting all afternoon and have forgotten to entertain the guests."
"What guest?"
"The people who came with me? Especially Mr. Chen, he is my savior."
"If it hadn't been for him, I wouldn't have had any chance of coming out."
"What, your savior?"
………………
Several people were already waiting outside, bored.
Nie Shuanglong looked at the people next to him and said speechlessly:
"We are your eldest lady's best friends, how come we don't even have a sip of tea? We have come all the way here, how come we don't even have a sip of food?"
While he was talking, Shangguan Wuhen rushed out quickly and said excitedly:
"Everyone, I'm really sorry. My daughter and I reunited after a long absence, and we thought we were separated from each other."
"I'm sorry for neglecting you all. I'll have people ready immediately to help you."
Nie Shuanglong rolled his eyes and said, "This is more or less the same. Otherwise, I would have thought King Xiling was just a chicken."
Shangguan Wuhen glanced at it and asked:
"I wonder who Mr. Chen is?"
"Me." Chen Tian smiled.
Shangguan Wuhen held Chen Tian's hand tremblingly, wanting to kneel down to him.
"You are my daughter's lifesaver. I really don't know how to repay you. Otherwise, I will never see my daughter again."
"Mr. Chen, the gratitude in my heart is simply beyond words."
Chen Tian said casually:
"It's just a piece of cake, it won't be a problem."
"Mr. Chen, don't worry, I will definitely prepare generous gifts for you."
"Come on, everyone, please take your seats."
Then, Shangguan Wuhen brought several people inside.
The hall inside looks more luxurious.
Shangguan Wuhen hosted a banquet and asked his men to arrange it carefully.
Just in this desert, I prepared a luxurious meal that can only be eaten in an oasis.
Shangguan Jin changed into a new set of clothes and suddenly seemed to change from a mature woman back to a young lady. She looked very young.
People are also much happier.
Shangguan Jin picked up the wine with gratitude and toasted Chen Tian alone.
Shangguan Wuhen also kept toasting to express his gratitude.
After eating for a few hours, we became more familiar with each other.
At the dinner table, Chen Tian wanted to ask questions that he was concerned about several times, but he held back.
I still remember that Chen Tian has been pursuing Wen Jingyi's father all the way from Jiangzhou since Chasha killed him.
Later in Kyoto, Bai Yujiao helped him find some clues.
Cha Xi entered the country and first killed his enemy, the eldest young master of the Ye family.
Then he went to the provincial capital and kidnapped Wen Jingyi's father.
In this clue, Bai Yujiao once said that Cha Xi came from the border, and it was very likely that he had found King Xiling.
King Xiling also had many contacts with Wen Jingyi's father.
All the clues point to King Xiling. If King Xiling is from the Chasha faction, then a war is inevitable.
Besides, with Shangguan Jin as the middleman, a fight would be of no benefit to anyone.
It is also possible that King Xi Ling and Wen Jingyi's father are from the same family, so there will definitely be further answers to his father's secret.
Chen Tian couldn't hold back his excitement. At the same time, he was also very worried about bad consequences.
So he had to hold back and prepare to attack Shangguan Jin first.
After eating and drinking, King Xiling arranged superior rooms for everyone.
Everyone was so tired from traveling that they finally found a place with a bed to sleep, including Chen Tian, who fell down and fell unconscious.
In a room, Shangguan Wuhen and his daughter were sitting across from each other, as if they still had a lot to say.
After Shangguan Wuhen talked a lot with his daughter, he suddenly sighed:
"I never expected that the person who saved you was not much older than you, and he was pretty good-looking. This is considered a hero saving a beauty."
Shangguan Jin said embarrassedly:
"In this journey, she saved hundreds of girls. To them, she was also a hero saving beauty."
"No, how can they compare to my daughter?"
"Daughter, when I was having dinner tonight, I looked at you like you were hiding away as soon as I saw Mr. Chen. Are you embarrassed?"
"Dad, have you seen this?" Shangguan Jin was very surprised.
Shangguan Wuhen smiled and said:
"One night, I was thinking, how should I repay this great kindness?"
"Now, I suddenly have an idea?"
"Dad, how do you want to repay my benefactor?"
"You are no longer eighteen. After so many years, you have long been suitable for marriage. He saved you, have you fallen in love with him?"
"Ah, I didn't."
"Dad has already seen something interesting. You are just embarrassed. If you like him, I will help you tell him to be my son-in-law, King Xiling."
"This is the best reward for him. Not only will I marry my precious daughter to him, but I will also give him the Xiling Palace as his inheritance. I will have a bright future in the future."
Shangguan Jin blushed:
"Dad, please stop talking."
"This matter has been decided. If you like him, let him marry you."
