Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1268 I’m a little confused

She is fully aware of her mother's worries and her mother's good intentions.

Hearing this, Yaoniang smiled softly: "Mother, in the past His Highness Shengde was just one person, but now His Highness Shengde will never be weak."

"He is the sworn brother of the Crown Prince of Qin and his close friend. He also has many like-minded friends. He will not be in danger."

Princess Zhaoren breathed a sigh of relief, then covered her face and cried: "When Hiyori left, was it painful?"

In fact, in the eyes of the Izumo people, kinship is not that important. What they care more about is decency and inheritance. In layman's terms, it means honor and maleness.

Daughters are nothing compared to sons, but above them is the honor for which they are willing to sacrifice their lives.

Yaoniang's father didn't care about his biological daughter Yaoniang at all. How could Yaoniang's mother care so much about Xie Yun, a relative?
Yaoniang slowly shook her head: "My daughter doesn't know. Due to her status, she has never met Rihe, but she learned from His Highness Shengde that Rihe was protecting His Highness Shengde at the last moment."

Princess Zhaoren was very sad: "I am a useless person. I watched Hiyori go to Daqin and couldn't stop her. He is a very good child."

Yaoniang was silent and had no words.

She has a good upbringing, but it doesn't mean that she is an emotional person. Without relatives who grew up together, she cannot have those deep emotions. She can only sigh for Hiyori's sacrifice.

Princess Zhaoren stood up, took out a purple flower feather fabric and put it on Yao Niang: "How can you wear so little?"

Yao Niang touched the silky texture of Yu Zhi, with a smile on her lips: "Mother's craftsmanship is becoming more and more exquisite."

Princess Zhaoren held Gu Nian in her arms, and the three of them enjoyed the rare family happiness.

In the main hall.

The general knelt in front of Changsun Tao: "I didn't know that His Highness Da Qin arrived, but I missed you from a distance. Please forgive me."

Changsun Tao waved his hand gently: "General, please rise. I went on patrol incognito and did not want to attract attention, so I did not submit my credentials to His Majesty the Emperor in advance, informing him that I would visit Izumo."

The general changed his serious attitude and said respectfully: "Although I was caught off guard by the sudden visit of His Highness, Your Highness, I am very happy that His Highness came to my residence."

Changsun Tao glanced at the general with his long eyes: "Since I am on patrol incognito and I don't want to make it public, I can only report this matter to His Majesty the Emperor. Does General understand?"

The general replied respectfully: "I understand that I will obey your uncle's orders in everything."

Changsun Tao made a gesture and introduced Lu Mingyu beside him: "This is my wife."

The general handed over his hand, but his attitude was obviously not that respectful, as if he didn't take Lu Mingyu seriously at all: "I have seen the great uncle and concubine."

Lu Mingyu nodded slightly: "General, you are well."

Changsun Tao introduced the rest of the people to the general, but did not mention that Xie Yun was Prince Shengde.

The generals greeted each other with courtesy, but did not ask about Xie Yun.

After some pleasantries, they were invited to a separate large courtyard, and then told that this was where they would stay.

After a while, Yao Niang brought Gu Nian to find everyone.

"My father asked me to entertain you," she said.

Lu Mingyu reached out to pick up Gu Nian, rubbed her little face, and then looked at Yao Niang: "What do you say?" Yao Niang said: "Mother said that the late emperor passed away not long after the incident with the empress and His Highness Shengde. Adopted by a clan member, he was the envoy who went to Da Qin some time ago."

"The emperor who is currently reigning is the uncle of the former emperor, the great-uncle of His Highness Shotoku. According to my mother, he is a cruel and ruthless man and a loyal subordinate of that lord."

Lu Mingyu put down her thoughts and asked, "Does your father know about your second brother?"

Yao Niang nodded: "I told him just now and he was very unhappy."

Lu Mingyu and Chang Sun Tao looked at each other: "It seems that the second brother is now in an awkward position and may become the target of public criticism. After all, the appearance of the late emperor's son will threaten the status of the current emperor."

Xie Yun's focus was not on this. He asked Yaoniang: "Cousin, besides Rihe, do I have other brothers and sisters? I was too young at that time and I can't remember many things clearly."

Yao Niang slowly shook her head: "The emperor only had one wife, and the queen only gave birth to you and Hiyori. Your closest brothers and sisters are only Hiyori."

Xie Yun felt disappointed, and finally smiled bitterly: "Then, I don't have any concerns about this place anymore."

Nangong Suisui walked up to him, stretched out his hand to take him into his arms, and patted his shoulder to express comfort.

Sima Xuanmo said: "Now, it's not a question of whether you have concerns or not, but what others will do to you."

Lan Lingling glanced at Sima Xuanmo: "Hey, you idiot, you knocked down Emperor Shitian, who dares to take action against Xie Yun?"

Lu Mingyu asked Yao Niang again: "Where is Emperor Shitian's residence in Izumo?"

They came to the capital to find Emperor Shitian and rescue Xiao Qian and Dabao.

As for the problems that will be faced, as long as Emperor Shitian is eradicated, what is there to fear about this small country?
Even if the entire country's troops were gathered, there was no need to dispatch Da Qin's navy, only Sima Xuanmo's brothers could deal with it.

They feared nothing from the hatred of the Emperor.

Yao Niang said: "In fact, the master Izumo said is not Emperor Shitian, but Hongjiang. Because of the relationship between Emperor Shitian and Hongjiang, as long as we find the residence of that adult, we can probably find Emperor Shitian." sky."

"But that lady is very mysterious. I don't think even my father knows where she is. If I want to find her, I have to ask His Majesty the Emperor."

"Izumo is very small, not even as big as Daqin or Qingzhou, and its military strength is pitifully small. However, it is full of weird and evil arts. It may not be your opponent head-on, but don't take it lightly. Be careful of their insidious tricks."

Everyone looked at Xie Yun, wanting to know his attitude and thoughts.

Their trip is to rescue Xiao Qian and Dabao. Although they will fight back with all their strength in the face of danger, this is not Da Qin after all, and they have no power to decide the fate of this country.

So Xie Yun's attitude determines how they will deal with what happens next.

Xie Yun sat in front of the small table and looked at the plum blossom screen not far away, looking a little confused.

Finally, he said: "The purpose of my return to Izumo is to find my relatives, to know if my parents are alive, and to bring my future wife to meet them."

"Since my relatives are no longer here, this place is just a strange place of origin for me. Although I was born in Izumo, I grew up in Daqin. I am a native of Daqin. This place has nothing to do with me. What should I do? , just let nature take its course."

Lu Mingyu frowned: "I'm a little confused. Previously, Hiyori said at the Great Qin Palace banquet that the second brother is the second son of His Majesty the Emperor, and that the second brother's mother is Concubine Ying. What's going on with this confusing situation now?"
