"Bang bang! Bang bang!" There was a knock on the door outside the house. After knocking a few times, it stopped. After a while, it knocked softly a few times again.
"Creak!" With a sound, the door of the house was opened from the inside, revealing the person standing outside.
"Uncle." Jiang Ningxuan called, stepping aside to get out of the way and letting Jiang Yuanzhen in. He glanced left and right, and when he saw no one was paying attention, he closed the door.
When they separated, Jiang Yuanzhen looked at Jiang Ningxuan and made a few gestures, indicating that she would stay for the time being and that they would talk about anything later.
Jiang Yuanzhen walked into the house, without saying anything in advance, and looked at Jiang Ningxuan back and forth, as if he couldn't get enough of it. After looking at Jiang Ningxuan several times and confirming that Jiang Ningxuan was fine, he showed a satisfied smile.
"How are your parents? How long has it been since Kunlun here? Have you ever visited Kyoto?" Jiang Yuanzhen had a lot of questions to ask.
Jiang Ningxuan also has many questions that she wants to know the answers to. Fortunately, there is plenty of time now. They have enough time to figure out what each other wants to know.
When Jiang Yuanzhen heard that Jiang Ningxuan was coming from Kyoto, he immediately asked Mrs. Jiang about her situation. He learned that his mother was fine. Because he saw his granddaughter, he was so happy that he could use half a bowl of rice more than before, and the smile on his face became more sincere.
.
Jiang Ningxuan said: "Grandma misses my uncle very much."
Jiang Yuanzhen's eyes were slightly moist. He also missed his mother in Kyoto very much.
The two talked about private matters for a while, and learned that everything was fine in Kyoto, and that his younger brother would probably reply to Kyoto in the near future. Jiang Yuanzhen's heart and eyes were filled with happy smiles, and he was even happier than he was when he was promoted and praised by His Majesty.
"Okay, okay, you and your family have finally come to the end of their hardships. When your third brother comes to Kyoto, your eldest uncle will be a guest and he will invite you and your family to have dinner at the best restaurant in Kyoto, and then ask your second uncle to accompany you." Jiang Yuanzhen said.
The second uncle was much more cunning than the eldest uncle, and he extorted a lot of fine wine from her.
Jiang Ningxuan thought of the grand occasion of everyone gathering, and a smile appeared in her eyes.
Jiang Yuanzhen said: "Girl Ningxuan, don't blame your grandfather. There is a reason why my father did what he did in the first place. Moreover, when my uncle went to Yanzhou, it was also because my father calculated that you were destined to be doomed and specially asked my uncle to come to Yanzhou.
To resolve.”
The poison of a tiger does not eat its seeds. Where in the world can there be a grandfather who really hurts his own granddaughter?
Jiang Ningxuan was noncommittal and had no interest in continuing the conversation on this topic.
"Uncle, why are you here?" Jiang Ningxuan asked.
Jiang Yuanzhen sighed and said this, his expression became heavy.
Jiang Ningxuan said, "Can't you tell me?" Seeing her uncle's hesitation, if there was anything about this matter that couldn't be said, then don't say it. She didn't have to know.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuanzhen said, "Girl Ningxuan misunderstood. It's not that we can't talk about it, but that too many things happened. Uncle didn't know where to start."
Many things happened in a short period of time, and Jiang Yuanzhen was greatly impacted.
It's a long story. That night, he was still in Biquan Palace, preparing things and wondering if there was anything wrong with Taishan accompanying him. There was a knock on the door outside the house. The person who came was the boy next to his father, who sent a message to him.
past.
After Jiang Yuanzhen heard the order, he followed the people. The road went further and further away. Instead of heading towards the inner courtyard, he walked to the outer courtyard. If he hadn't known that the person leading the way was a confidant of his father's side, he would never have been there.
Questions, you can't help but wonder if someone is setting you up.
Outside Biquan Palace, Jiang Ze took off the gorgeous and complicated robes of the imperial master and put on tight clothes. When he saw his eldest son coming, he directly called him to get on the horse that had been prepared nearby, and the group of people galloped away.
Jiang Yuanzhen said: "We walked for a whole day and night, met the great wizard of the ancient city, and then came here."
At that time, the great witch was worried about the fact that the seal of the ancient city was about to be broken. The letter asking for help had been sent out, but the sky was high and the road was far away. In a short while, it was too late.
The original formation in the ancient city suddenly weakened for some unknown reason. When the dark beast attacked, it was less than 50% of its original strength.
Dark beasts are cunning, these things are ferocious in nature, and must not be let out to cause harm to the world.
Jiang Ze took Jiang Yuanzhen and followed the great witch to the ancient city, and used new methods to suppress the restless dark beast.
After Jiang Ningxuan listened to her uncle's story about the past, the mystery in her heart was answered, but there were more mysteries.
This is what happened. Jiang Ze seemed to know that the ancient city was in trouble, so he specially brought Jiang Yuanzhen to help.
Jiang Ningxuan thought of something and told Jiang Yuanzhen: "Uncle, when Ningxuan arrived in Kyoto, the second uncle gave Ningxuan a letter. It was...a letter written by his grandfather, specially left for Ningxuan.
"
Jiang Yuanzhen exclaimed: "The letter my father left for you!" He had never heard of this, and his second brother had never told him.
The two people looked at each other.
Jiang Yuanzhen said: "My father must have deep meaning when he does that."
Jiang Ningxuan was a little annoyed that she didn't think much about it at the time. After getting the clue, she went after it so directly. Now that she was deeply involved in the situation, she had to think more.
"Girl Ningxuan, when you came here, did you see the grand occasion of His Majesty's conferment on Mount Tai?" Jiang Yuanzhen asked. He could only miss such a rare event for many years. Jiang Yuanzhen was so steady that he felt in his heart
Pity.
When Jiang Ningxuan heard this, her expression became a little strange.
It turns out that my uncle didn't know what happened on Mount Tai. He didn't see the grand ceremony of the Zen ceremony, but he did see a lot of the excitement. It was indeed a rare encounter in many years, and it was engraved in his heart.
Jiang Ningxuan picked up the important things and recounted everything that happened when Mount Tai was enshrined in Zen.
Jiang Yuanzhen's brows furrowed for a while, relaxed for a while, clenched his fists for a while, and even couldn't sit still and stood up directly. When he heard the end, he knew that the emperor had returned to Biquan Palace safely and had seen through King Ni.
He and Li Qinglin's conspiracy, and after killing them, he finally let go of his worries.
"It's okay, it's okay. Fortunately, it's okay." Jiang Yuanzhen was still frightened and his face turned pale. He only regretted that he was not there at that time and failed to protect His Majesty.
He looked at Jiang Ningxuan again with an appraising look. If it weren't for the difference between men and women, he would have wanted to check if his niece had indeed grown up.
Jiang Ningxuan repeatedly assured that she was fine and not injured. At most, she was just a little tired from traveling all the time.
Jiang Ningxuan said: "Ningxuan will come here because he has received His Majesty's order to look for someone."
The emperor directly asked her to come here to look for him, and he came in secret, which made her speculate that maybe the emperor knew some inside information and was so eager just now. Thinking of the letter left by Jiang Ze in Kyoto, in this matter,
Her grandfather, the national master, did not know what role he played.
