Chapter 229 The closest place to the gods

云漠从未想过,他会在这种情况下与九王爷再次相见.在他满心回忆着过去的时候,那个失手“杀”了他心爱之人的凶手突然出现在他的面前,他究竟是该上前不由分说地把人揍一顿;还是拔剑一命抵一命;或者直接扭头走人?

In the end, Yun Mo suppressed the hatred in his heart and walked forward and called out, "Uncle Jiu."

Nangong Qingye nodded and signaled Yunmo to sit down at the stone table in the yard, and placed the two jars of wine he brought on the table, "Aged daughter Hong, just stolen from your uncle."

Yun Mo took a jar of wine, raised his head and poured it down. Nangong Qingye frowned, "I taught you how to drink wine, I don't remember I told you that this is how you drink wine!"

"You also told me that when you meet someone you like, you should boldly chase after him and tell her loudly, 'I like you'! Don't want to be mother-in-law and mother, take this and that. What's the use of regretting it when the person leaves?" Yun Mo put down the wine jar and looked at Nangong Qingye, "I did it all, but she still left."

Nangong Qingye was silent for a while and put a sword in front of Yun Mo. It was the fish intestine sword that Murong Lingfeng stabbed into the man in black that day, "Do you know why I'm waiting for you to come back here?"

Yun Mo frowned at the Yuyan Sword. He gave the Yuyan Sword to the young master, but the young master only used it twice, once falling off a cliff, and once life and death are unknown. In this way, this Yuyan Sword is really an ominous weapon.

"I just think that I should pay you my life." Nangong Qingye said.

Yun Mo stroked the pattern on the scabbard, "At that time, I really wanted to kill you! But I couldn't do it. It was not only because you were my uncle Ninth, but also a teacher and a friend to me. More importantly, Feng'er would rather sacrifice herself than be hurt at all, so how could I go against her wishes?"

Nangong Qingye looked at Yun Mo's sad and lonely figure and suddenly thought of himself many years ago. The word "love" is too painful and painful, but how many foolish men and women are drunk like moths to the fire?

Seeing that Nangong Qingye was staring at him, Yun Mo smiled, "What, Uncle Jiu still teaches me how to deal with a broken heart?"

"You are not called love breakup, Feng'er will come back sooner or later!" Nangong Qingye said firmly.

As he was talking, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open again, and this time there were many people. The leader was the smiling Emperor Chu. Behind him was the second prince, the sixth prince, the family of the Wu Prince's Mansion and the brothers who had just returned to Chujing with Yun Mo today. "I knew you two would be here!"

Emperor Chu first grabbed the seat next to Yun Mo. Seeing the people behind him, he could only go back to move the bench helplessly, laughing, not caring about his image as an emperor.

Yun Mo saw that the yard suddenly became cheerful and lively, and curled his lips. These people were simply too blind to see him. Didn’t you see him and Uncle Jiu’s hearts hurt here?

Emperor Chu was still there, "Han'er, ask someone to bring a few more jars of wine. A Jin, A Ling, where are our barbecue? Why didn't you bring it over? Come on, Yezi, Xiaoxiao, put the fruit here, and bring a few more plates! Let's eat and chat!"

Everything was ready, and everyone sat around. The Ninth Prince looked at the formation and couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what are you doing here?"

"If you have something to talk to you!" Emperor Chu opened a jar of wine, poured it into a bowl like a scholar, picked it up and drank it boldly, "Tsk tsk, wine, it should be like this to drink it to taste good!"

"What's the matter?" asked the Ninth Prince.

Emperor Chu put down the bowl and tore up another piece of barbecue to put it in his mouth, "Well, it's delicious! What else can happen these days? It's good weather, no illness or disaster, and Mo'er is obsessed with the world. What Gu is doing is simply too easy! Now what can be considered a matter is, isn't the only thing left to the Netherworld Trial?"

Emperor Chu ate two more bites of meat, looked up and saw everyone staring at him, stunned, "Why don't you eat it? It's so delicious!"

Everyone said, we are not waiting for you to talk about the serious matters.

Still listening to it, "Your Majesty, we just had a meal and were not hungry yet. Why don't we talk about the Netherworld Trial first?"

Emperor Chu waved his hand, "No, everyone hasn't arrived yet! Now that I'm finished speaking, I have to repeat it again for a while, I'm tired!"

Everyone looked at each other, weren’t everyone here? Who else?

Emperor Chu glanced at Qi Rong beside him, "You go to the door and take a look, why haven't he come yet? Don't be lost."

Qi Rong agreed to leave.

Just as everyone racked their brains to guess who the person who dared to let the emperor wait for was, Qi Rong smiled and led a man in, "I really guessed it right. The marquis wandered around the door for a long time, but didn't dare to come in." If that's right, who could believe that the house of Murong, the first family in the world, would be so dilapidated?

When they saw the visitor, the biggest reaction was the brothers Song Ye and Song Xiao. They immediately stood up and saluted the man respectfully, "Father!"

That's right, the person who came was Song Ye and Song Xiao's father, Song Yu, the Marquis of Zhennan.

Song Yu was the brother of Emperor Chu and the Nine Kings. Something happened more than 20 years ago. Song Yu left the capital and guarded the border for eighteen years. In Song Xiao's life, this adoptive father almost never appeared, and he met Song Yu at a few times. However, Song Xiao admired Song Yu from the bottom of his heart. In his heart, even though the Ninth Prince and the Holy Prince were the gods of war in Nan Chu, the most powerful general was his father, Song Yu, the Marquis of Zhennan. This was probably a sense of innate superiority.

In comparison, Song Ye is much happier than his younger brother. When he was young, he followed Song Yu for a while. It was not until Song Yu left the capital that he lived in the Wu Palace.

However, unexpectedly, after eighteen years, Song Yu returned to Chujing.

Song Yu nodded to them, then walked over and gave a big gift to Emperor Chu, "Emperor!"

Emperor Chu waved his hand to let him get up, that's what he meant, "Come on, wasn't it when you pointed at the lonely nose and scolded the foolish emperor?"

Song Yu was helpless. He had a bit of a temper that day, but Nangong Qingtian was too scrupulous and had been remembering his grudges for more than 20 years!

Emperor Chu asked Qi Rong to bring a bench for Song Yu to sit down. Song Yu glanced at the bench that was obviously half shorter than others, and was speechless, "All of you are so old, you are all bored!"

Emperor Chu glared at him, "You know you're old? You don't come back to see your brothers so much. Do you think you should be punished?" He pointed to the small bench and said nothing, "You'll sit here for Gu today! Otherwise Gu will punish you for deceiving the emperor!"

Good guy, I'm going to be punished? Song Yu took a helpless look at the small stool, "Can I sit on the ground?"

Emperor Chu raised his eyebrows, that's what he meant - you can do it yourself!

Song Yu really had no choice but to sit on the small stool unwillingly.

The Sixth Prince smiled and said, "Why did you feel like you were back when we were young? Whenever Lao Qi bullies Xiao Yuzi, Xiao Yuzi is so helpless! Hahaha, I didn't expect that after so many years, Xiao Yuzi, you are still in the hands of Lao Qi."

Song Yu also sighed, why have he been bullied by him in this life? But he is still a prince. If he bullies him back, it will be another "crime of deceiving the king". He loses all over the world, and he is frustrated!

When Emperor Chu saw that Song Yu sat down like a little book boy, he stopped making trouble. He cleared his throat and talked about the important matters. "Half a month ago, the envoys of Zhantian Palace had arrived. In about three days, we will set off for Zhantian Palace."

"So fast?" Chu Jin said in surprise. They had just returned and were leaving again?

"We should have left a few days ago, so aren't we waiting for you to come back?" said Emperor Chu. "If we don't set off in three days, we will be completely unable to catch up with the Netherworld Trial."

Speaking of the Netherworld Trial, Emperor Chu remembered another thing. He looked at Song Yu and Yun Mo with a smile, "This time, I'm afraid your uncle and nephew will fight!"

Both of them were stunned. They didn't understand each other very well. What were they fighting for?

The Ninth Prince was aware of it, "You Uncle Yu also asked the Lord of Zhantian Palace to find someone, but there was only one leader in the Netherworld Trial." Nangong Qingye looked at the two of them, and suddenly he didn't know which side to go. He said that Song Yu had been waiting for more than 20 years, and this rare opportunity should be given to him. However, Yun Mo also had deep affection for the young master. As for the Ninth Prince's original intention, he also hoped that the young master would come back.

When Song Xiao heard that Song Yu was looking for someone, his eyes immediately lit up, "Does his father want to find his mother?"

Song Yu nodded with a stern face, and he looked so serious, with a little gentleness, awkward and funny, the key is that he was so cute. It made Ouyang Feifei cover her mouth and laugh, "If Xiaoyan was here, she would definitely laugh at you again!"

When Song Yu heard Chu Yan's name, his expression became much gentler.

Yun Mo has also heard of the story of Song Yu and Chu Yan.

Chu Yan is also called Nangong Yan, the biological sister of Emperor Chu and the Ninth Prince and the same father and mother. However, when the Empress Dowager was pregnant with Chu Yan, he was framed by a traitor. Chu Yan was poisoned when he was born. Fortunately, Duke An Guo's wife, An Shuli's mother, was pregnant. Mrs. Murong took her husband to Chujing to visit her sister. Jiushang Valley had been in close contact with Murong's mansion, and several generations of Murong's heads were disciples of Jiushang Valley. Murong Shen's medical skills were naturally no problem. With his timely treatment, Chu Yan survived. It was just that the child was too young and the poison did hurt her body. The Empress Dowager finally endured the pain and handed over Chu Yan to the Murong and his wife to raise. It was naturally unqualified that Murong gave the name of Nan Chu to her, and named it Chu Yan.

Murong Shen did remove the poison from Chu Yan, but the child had been around for so many years and had a relationship. In addition, the situation in Nanchu was unstable at that time, so the late emperor and the queen mother did not ask them to send the princess back. The Murong and his wife pretended not to know and continued to keep the princess by their side. It was not until Chu Yan was eighteen that she returned to Chu Jing. But she only came back once, but took away the heart of Song Yu, the most powerful general of Nanchu. Later, for some reason, Chu Yan left and never came back since then. Song Yu found her for more than 20 years, but found nothing.

Speaking of which, among them, besides Emperor Chu, the Ninth Prince and Song Yu, there is another person who has some connection with Chu Yan - Chu Jin.

Chu Jin was a little refugee who was about to starve to death that Chu Yan picked up on the way back to the capital. Chu Yan saw that the child was smart and tough, and the key was that he was quite cute, so she brought the person back to raise him as a son.

Chu Yan was only eighteen years old at that time, so how could he raise a child? He had left it to Princess Wu who had already given birth to two children. In Chu Yan's words, one was rushing and the two were released, so that the child would be raised with one more piece! Chu Jin was also a filial and obedient person. Although Chu Yan didn't care much about him, he just came over to tease him happily, but he always remembered that Chu Yan took him out of the dead and shouted at him one by one, and he didn't call him too intimately. Whenever he called his mother in that glutinous voice, Chu Yan would hold him and smile. She had a son before she got married, and she was not ashamed. However, in the end, when Chu Yan left, she still did not take him with her.

By the way, the name Chu Jin is also an allusion. It is a great blessing for a refugee child to have a saliva and drink and eat. He has never seen the brilliant pavilions and towers of Chu Jing. A two or three-year-old child has seen too many cold and cold worlds, so he is naturally reserved. He looked at such a beautiful gate of the Wuwang Mansion and looked at his dirty shoes. How dare he enter? Chu Yan didn't care about him, so he walked straight in. After walking more than ten meters away, he found that the child had not followed him. He walked back and called him, "Come in! Why don't you come in? Come in!" After struggling like this three or four times, Chu Yan was no longer patient, "Just call you Chu Jin!" So, the name of the future general of Nan Chu was so hasty!

So, in addition to Song Yu, Chu and Jin also hope to see Chu Yan again.

Yun Mo took the wine handed over by the Ninth Prince and took a sip, "Everyone can rely on their abilities!"

Emperor Chu nodded. He planned so too. Anyway, he would be happy if he wins. There is still a good show to watch, so why not do it!

"In previous years, each country could have two hundred people entering Zhantian Palace, including guards and maids; while the eighteen villages had only fifty places in each village; plus the 300 team formed by the people, a total of two thousand people. This year is no exception. These two thousand people gathered in Xuantian City, and a competition will be held, and one hundred people will finally be decided to enter the Netherworld Trial. The remaining 1,900 people can choose to leave or enter the Zhantian Palace as an audience. Of course, it is a rare opportunity to go to Zhantian Palace to see it, and no one will be stupid enough to give up." Emperor Chu remembered the scene when they went to Zhantian Palace that year, and couldn't help but sigh, "Only those who have been to Zhantian Palace know what is the closest place to the gods, how small and unbearable we are, and what awe are."
