Everyone knows that the young master of the Zheng family is a second-generation ancestor, and whoever causes trouble will be in trouble.
Everyone was just looking at Nangong He's teasing at this moment, and no one dared to step forward, but Zhou Yuan, who had been sitting in the corner silently, wanted to fight against the injustice.
"Boy, do you know who our young master is? If you dare to come forward at this time, do you believe that my young master will twist your head off?" A follower shouted with arrogance.
Zhou Yuan said inexplicably: "Isn't it called Zheng Heng?"
"Are you tired of living after knowing that you still dare to show your face?" Zheng Heng looked unhappy.
Zhou Yuan raised his head and thought for a moment, "You can put it that way."
To be honest, it didn't want to show off, it just wanted to get in touch with Nangong He, so it just found any reason.
"Hmph, this kid is looking for death, let me take care of him." Zheng Heng suddenly shouted, and all the followers around him started gearing up.
Zhou Yuan also stood up, preparing to be a hero to save the beauty.
Who would have thought, but at this moment, Nangong He suddenly shouted: "Stop."
As soon as this sound came out, everyone stopped, including Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan cursed in his heart. He still wanted to fight against the injustice. Wasn't this woman deliberately trying to ruin his good deeds?
But Nangong He didn't think so. She stared at Zheng Heng, with anger on her crescent-shaped face, "Zheng Heng, do you know who I am?"
Suddenly, there was complete silence.
Nangong He is the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, and the Nangong family is one of the nine aristocratic families in the imperial capital.
Everyone else knew about this identity, but Zheng Heng was the only one who was kept in the dark.
Zheng Heng turned his head and looked at Nangong He with a suspicious look on his face, saying, "I would like to know whose girl you are, so that I can visit you some other time?"
"It's really blinding your eyes."
Nangong He snorted coldly and took off an jade token from his waist. On the token, the word Nangong was clearly engraved.
With a plop, Zheng Heng immediately collapsed on the ground, his face turned pale.
Only then did he realize that the people he was provoking were actually members of the Nangong family. The Nangong family was one of the nine aristocratic families. His Xu family was only a second-rate family, and was not worthy of being a subsidiary family of the Nangong family.
For a moment, Zheng Heng felt that he had gotten into big trouble.
Sitting down with Zheng Heng was Zhou Yuan, but Zhou Yuan was sitting on a chair.
He looked a little embarrassed. He wanted to settle the injustice and take the opportunity to get in touch with Nangong He, who was also pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
In this case, wouldn't it be redundant to take action yourself?
"As long as you don't embarrass yourself, others will be embarrassed." Zhou Yuan took a sip of wine.
However, everyone had no time to pay attention to Zhou Yuan. They were all watching Nangong He slap Zheng Heng in the face.
Nangong He stared at Zheng Heng, his face as gloomy as water, and continued: "Now, do you still dare to visit me?"
"I don't dare, I have offended Miss Nangong, please forgive me this time." Zheng Heng's face was full of horror, and he even knelt on his knees, and other attendants around him also knelt down and begged.
"No, you have to come to my door someday. If you don't give me an explanation for the person who beat me, is this okay?"
Nangong He said disdainfully.
Zheng Heng nodded quickly when he heard this, "Yes, yes, I will definitely come to my door with a generous gift to apologize one day."
Zhou Yuan was stunned for a while. It seemed that Nangong He was not simple at all. The city was even quite deep.
Nangong He ignored Zheng Heng and glanced at Zhou Yuan in the corner, "You, follow me."
Zhou Yuan subconsciously raised his head and saw Nangong He looking at him. He couldn't help but feel a little confused. Was he... talking to him?
After a brief moment of confusion, Zhou Yuan stood up and followed Nangong He out of the inn.
"Thank you, Master, for taking the initiative." Nangong He bowed slightly to Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan was even more stupid. He didn't take action, but the other party still wanted to thank him. Are all the people in the imperial capital so hospitable?
But after all, it was not a problem that he could solve by himself. Zhou Yuan quickly changed the subject and said: "Since the girl comes from the Nangong family, one of the nine aristocratic families, why is she bullied by a child of a second-rate family?"
Nangong He sighed slightly.
"So what about the nine great families? Without the martial arts seal, they are no different from ordinary people. Even if my father is the head of the Nangong family, he will not care about me." Nangong He paused and continued: "If my brother is still here,
No one dares to bully me."
Zhou Yuan also fell into deep thought. In Tianluo City, the martial arts seal was just a legend. Unexpectedly, in the imperial capital, it was as common as cabbage.
Without the Martial Arts Seal, we are just ordinary people. Is the Martial Arts Seal really so important?
But soon, Zhou Yuan was shocked by another news. The Nangong He in front of him turned out to be the daughter of the current head of the Nangong family.
He has inquired these days and found that the position of head of the Nangong family has not changed for more than 20 years.
This shows that the head of the family has always been Nangong Yu's father. So, isn't Nangong Yu the brother of Nangong He?
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan's eyes immediately flashed.
"Is your brother's name Nangong Yu?" Zhou Yuan asked tentatively.
Hearing this, Nangong He suddenly turned around and looked at Zhou Yuan, "You know my brother, do you know where he is?"
Nangong Yu ran away from home ten years ago, and there has been no news so far. His father even searched the entire Tianyun Kingdom, and finally had no choice but to pass the title of Crown Prince to Nangong Shao, who is from the collateral lineage.
By now, Zhou Yuan was convinced that Nangong He was indeed Nangong Yu's sister.
He immediately said: "I am your brother's friend in the past. Now I come to the imperial capital. Firstly, I want to join the Seven Star Academy. Secondly, I have something to bring you Nangong Yu's parents."
"What? Why did my brother ask you to deliver something but he didn't come back? Where is he?"
Nangong He panicked for a moment and realized something was wrong.
Her brother had been away from home for ten years, and her impression of him was very vague, but one thing she remembered particularly clearly was that when she was a child, his brother often fought for no other reason than to protect himself.
In her mind, her brother is like a mountain, giving her endless security.
Seeing Nangong He's expression, Zhou Yuan really couldn't bear to tell the truth, but it was obviously unrealistic, so he immediately said: "Your brother Nangong Yu, he is dead."
"Dead? Impossible. My brother is so talented. How could he die?"
Nangong He couldn't accept it, and two lines of hot tears poured down at once, staining his makeup.
It can be said that the whole family has been looking forward to Nangong Yu's return for ten years, but in the end they heard such bad news.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Zhou Yuan then turned over his hand, took out the piece of tiger jade from Najie, and handed it to Nangong He, "This is what your brother left behind. He was poisoned by poison and was unable to recover."
Nangong He immediately took it and his consciousness penetrated to check.
There is a universe inside this tiger jade, which is originally a token left by Nangong Yu. It is engraved with the last words he wanted to say to his relatives, which can be said to be his last words.
Moreover, tiger jade can seal Nangong Yu's unique aura and cannot be faked.
This shows that Nangong Yu is really dead.
"Nangong Shao, it's you?" Nangong He held the tiger jade, anger burning in his beautiful eyes.
Back then, her brother ran away from home for no reason, and her cousin Nangong Shao, who had the martial arts seal, became the eldest son of the Nangong family. She was very young at the time and didn't know the reason. Now as she grows older, she feels something is wrong.
It was only now, after reading Hu Yunei's last words, that Nangong He fully understood.
