Fish only seek revenge, not leap over the Dragon Gate

Chapter 236: The road to Tianfeng Mountain is blocked, Lu Jiayi returns

Tianfeng Mountain is located in the northernmost part, facing Wancong Mountain in the distance.

Although both are mysterious mountains, the feelings they give people are completely different.

Wancong Mountain is shrouded in poisonous fog all year round, and no one can see inside, which gives people a sense of mystery. At the same time, because the poisonous fog kills people, it also gives people a sense of evil.

Tianfeng Mountain is different. Although the top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, it gives people the feeling of a fairyland, which makes people yearn for it.

Lu Xian traveled day and night and finally brought his men to the foot of the mountain. In the small teahouse, Zhou Yunfeng was asking the boss how to get to the top of the mountain.

The young boss waved his hands when he heard this, "Sir, I'm not trying to throw cold water on you, but you can't climb up Tianfeng Mountain."

Lu Xian frowned slightly, and Zhou Yunfeng immediately asked, "Why can't you go up? Many of the poems I wrote down are about Tianfeng Mountain. If you can write about it, then you must have been there before."

The young boss sighed, "Sir, you are right. There used to be a road leading to Tianfeng Mountain, but it suddenly disappeared ten years ago."

"Suddenly it disappeared?"

"Yes, it's gone suddenly." The young boss looked outside, his eyes full of regret.

"My grandfather and father used to go hunting to support the family. Since the road was lost, our livelihood has been in trouble."

The young boss shook his head dejectedly, took a rag and started to clean up the empty tables. This small teahouse was opened only out of necessity.

Zhou Yunfeng returned to Lu Xian's table and sat down, "General, there is no way to climb Tianfeng Mountain."

Lu Xian took a sip of wine and twitched the corners of his mouth. The road was destroyed ten years ago, and Wuwang's most important things were on it. No matter how he thought about it, the destruction of this road was related to Wuwang.

He really put a lot of effort into it.

That’s right, he himself is a monster and has the ability to fly. It doesn’t matter to him whether there is a road or not, as long as others can’t get up.

That thing looks really important.

Humph, he would chisel a way through it even if he had to and destroy that thing.

Lu Mansion

Nanny Li and the servant who took care of Lu Rong inquired about it and were shocked by the result. They quickly reported it to their master.

Zhang Feng was shocked when he heard this.

"Mammy, you said... Is this the identity Xiaoyuer mentioned?"

"But...how could there be a snake demon in this world?"

"Madam, I don't know." Madam Li shook her head, "If it weren't for Miss Lu Yu's statement about his identity, others would probably think that the servant was hysterical after hearing what he said.

Similarly, if it weren’t for what the servant said, Miss Lu Yu’s identity would not have been mentioned.

Others would only speculate that there was some unknown secret about that boy's family background, but when the two are combined, one cannot help but think that he was a monster."

Zhang Feng frowned, the handkerchief in her hand was about to be torn to pieces, "Mammy, go check with Xiao Yuer."

Nanny Li did not move, but asked, "Madam, what if it is confirmed?"

"It's better for us to pretend we know nothing."

"No, no." Zhang Feng stood up and grabbed Li Ma's arm, his voice trembling.

"Mammy, I have to confirm it. Only then can I make amends and ask for forgiveness."

"When Xiao Yuer suggested that Lu Rong live in Qingshan Courtyard, he was there. When I refused, he probably held a grudge against me."

"If he really is a demon, then he must make amends and apologize, and ask for forgiveness no matter what."

"otherwise……"

Zhang Feng was extremely frightened. She was afraid that her husband and children would be implicated.

Nanny Li had a different opinion. She helped her sit down and explained the situation to her carefully. "Madam, since Miss Lu Yu dared to let him live with Master Qingshan, it shows that he is harmless.

Rather than trying to figure it out, you might as well pretend you know nothing. As the saying goes, ignorance is not to blame, and figuring it out would be bad."

"Besides, because of Miss Lu Yu's relationship, even if that person holds a grudge against you, he will at least give Miss Lu Yu some face."

Zhang Feng was gradually appeased and nodded slowly, "Mammy is right, with Xiao Yu'er in the middle, I don't think he will do anything."

"Mammy, go and sort out some items from my dowry and give them to Xiaoyuer, Huanzhu, and that other person, as a token of congratulations to them on their new home."

"Yes, I will go right away. Madam, please relax."

When Lu Qingshan learned that Lu Yu had moved away, he was very happy. He sent Lin Ruquan away that evening.

Who would have thought that he would come back the next day and pull him out of bed.

"You, you left?"

The little fat boy narrowed his eyes and stared at me, his face full of disbelief and frustration.

Lin Ru carried him out with an expressionless face, and threw him into the yard, "I haven't finished what the young lady asked me to do, so I have to come back to continue."

In addition, he told the young lady about Zhang Hao, and the young lady asked him to pay attention to it at all times.

Once that woman acts like a demon, immediately notify her to come and watch the show, and beat the actor while you are at it.

The actor not only refers to the woman, but also the monk she invited.

When the fat boy Lu Qingshan heard him say this, he lost all his strength and just lay on the ground in a spread-eagle position, pretending to be a dead body.

Lin Ruquan didn't tolerate him at all and lifted him up again. Amid his shouting, several of them flew out of the Lu Mansion.

The servant who served Lu Qingshan watched his master being taken away without any expression, because he was already used to it.

He just had to do what he had to do. Anyway, he had no way of competing with this hero Lin.

Six days passed, and before Zhang Hao brought the monks to catch the "ghost", Lu Jiayi, Zhang Hui and a group of people came back.

I have to say, there are really a lot of people here.

There were some people who were injured in the battle with the Dragon Guards and were recuperating in the valley, some who left early, and Old Madam Gu.

In addition, there are the officials and family members of the Sun family who have long since defected to the Duke's Mansion.

There were also some who were Prince Xin and the officials and their families who were waiting to surrender.

Because there were too many people, the Lu Mansion did not have enough space to accommodate them, except for Old Madam Gu and a dozen guards that Lu Yu brought from Houqian City, who were taken to Lu Yu's own house.

The rest of the people found their own places to live.

Everyone understood and there was no dissatisfaction.

There are really a lot of people in Gunzhou, and housing is very tight, so Prince Xin only bought a small house with two courtyards.

The guards, maids, and other servants who followed them all rented separate houses.

Prince Xin was not unhappy even though the house was so small. Instead, he felt relaxed and at ease, strolling leisurely on the street.

It's so lively! Even more lively than the capital.

This atmosphere is really infectious. Prince Xin didn't feel tired after walking around for a whole day and always had a smile on his face.

When he returned to the mansion, he was still sighing with the people around him, "The sea is peaceful and the river is clear. These four words are just right for this place."

Prince Xin took off his coat and handed it to the old servant beside him. "Today, I didn't see any bullying or looking down on anyone. Everyone was full of laughter."

“It’s so rare.”

"Think about when I was in the capital. Even though I was a prince, those powerful officials would still look down on me when they saw me."

"Your Highness is right. This place is different from the capital. No, it is different from any other place."

The old servant also followed him for a day today and felt something: "Many people in the world look down on others. Those who wear silk look down on those who wear cotton, and those who wear cotton look down on those who wear linen."

"Officials look down on merchants, merchants look down on farmers, and farmers look down on beggars."

The old servant poured a glass of water for Prince Xin and continued, "I have also observed all day today, whether it is a pharmacy, a restaurant, a jewelry store, or a cloth shop,

All the staff greeted us with a smile, and treated everyone equally, regardless of who they were greeting. "

Prince Xin took a sip of tea, smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's right. It's incredible, isn't it? Laws and rules can only regulate people's superficial behavior, but cannot control their hearts."

"If there is a way to unite everyone, then nothing is impossible."

Prince Xin leaned back in his chair, his eyes slightly closed. Even if Hua Chao did not have Wuwang, the situation would probably be over.

Because a better ruler has emerged.

The founding ancestor of the Hua Dynasty once said that if one wants to secure the throne, the first thing to do is to gain the support of the people.

If the people are on your side, you will be as stable as Mount Tai. If the people are not on your side, even if you are in a high position, you will be like a small boat in the sea, which may capsize at any time.

The slight resentment in my heart completely disappeared after strolling around for a day.
