Chapter 76 Fierce Followers (Second Update)
The eldest princess didn't speak, but the sadness permeating her body was enough for Lin Xi to understand.
This is the second time the eldest princess has mentioned the little master’s biological father.
He is handsome and unparalleled in the world - very similar to Rong Xuan.

Nalanjing has the habit of getting up early, even when the weather is cold.
Rong Yu and Rong Qian had a hard time reading at night every day. The task of accompanying Nalan Jing up the mountain in the morning fell on Rong Xuan.
The road into the deep mountains had already been cut off by a small path for Nalanjing. The two of them successfully found the dragon's blood trees. Nalanjing took out the scissors and started to cut the necessary branches.
Dracaena is planted by tree cuttings. This is winter, which is not the best time to plant dracaena. However, it can still survive if it is well protected from the cold.
After Nalanjing had almost finished cutting, he and Rong Xuan went down the mountain together.
The eldest princess usually slept very lightly. I wonder if it was because of the medicine she took, but she had another good night's sleep and it was already midnight when she woke up.
The old woman told her that Rong Xuan and Nalan Jing had gone up the mountain to collect medicine.
The eldest princess stood in front of the stove, watching her take out the flint and skillfully light the fire to cook porridge.
Seeing that she didn't leave, the old woman pulled a low stool for her to sit on.
After the eldest princess sat down, the old woman chatted with her.
Old woman: "Axuan is a very sensible child. His parents passed away suddenly. At that time, Xiaoliu was only more than two months old. He probably knew that his parents were gone and cried all night. I am such an old bone.
He couldn't bear it, and the people in the house couldn't take him with him, so A-Xuan carried Xiaoliu, who was just a few months old, behind his back."
"At that time, he was still a seventh-grade official, responsible for investigating some minor cases. Once he encountered a major murder case, and the adults above him couldn't find it out, so they gave the case to him. If he couldn't find it out, he would be charged. He carried the case behind his back.
Liu ate and slept with the corpse of the deceased for three days. Three days later, he solved the case and caught the murderer. This was also the first case in which he rose to prominence."
"On the day I came back, Xiaoliu stopped crying. I thought he was scared and I didn't dare to let him carry Xiaoliu out again."
The eldest princess had difficulty breathing, so she pretended to be fine and said, "He was taught very well at home."
But the old woman shook her head: "It was he who taught all five younger brothers well. When I went to Beijing from Youzhou, he was almost seven years old, and his grades in the academy were always among the best. After Erlang was born, he began to teach
Erlang knew how to read and read. After Sanlang was born, he didn't like reading, so he taught him to practice kung fu. Silang and Wulang were twins. When they were in trouble and the other was quiet, he also taught them according to their aptitude. Xiaoliu... Xiaoliu always thought that Ah Xuan was his father when he was a child."
When she said the last sentence, the old woman couldn't help laughing.
Rong Xuan has been sensible since he was a child. He rarely cries like other children, nor does he laugh heartily. He beats his younger brother for not being sensible, and after beating him, he goes out with them to buy greedy sweets.
Old woman: "Actually, many times I don't believe that Rong Xuan is a child of our Rong family. He is the smartest and wisest person I have ever met. The Rong family has not produced a number one scholar for eighteen generations, but he has won the first prize."
I came back with a three-yuan grade."
"You don't know, when the rankings were announced and the top pick was paraded through the streets, I saw him in the crowd, and I thought he should be a dragon in the sky..."
In everyone's heart, their children are shining brightly, and the old woman is not sure if she is the only one who feels this way.
That day, the No. 1 Scholar Parade was filled with people and the streets were empty. They saw San Yuan and were impressed by his charisma.
When the porridge was cooked, the old woman took out a basin and scooped it out, then gave her another spoonful: "Eat it first, don't wait for them, they are not that early."
The eldest princess: "Do they go up the mountain every day?"
The old woman shook her head, but said: "This is the first time for Ah Xuan to accompany his granddaughter-in-law up the mountain. In the past, Erlang Sanlang always accompanied his grandson's daughter-in-law to go up the mountain, and sometimes she went up the mountain alone."
Speaking of this, the old woman sighed again: "I always thought Ah Xuan was too sensible, but now I have a wife who makes me feel more distressed than him."
"When we first arrived in Youzhou, we were penniless and our children were so hungry that they cried all the way. Our granddaughter-in-law went hunting in the mountains to fill our stomachs. Later, we moved to this village and rented this house. At that time
Ah Xuan is unconscious. She gets up at 9 o'clock every day and goes to the mountains to dig herbs to make money to feed her family."
"Look at the cold weather now, she also went up the mountain, so that she didn't have to work so hard, and she was satisfied with having food and drink at home. She said she wanted to plant medicinal fields. What she wanted was not food and drink, but
…”
Rather, she wants to achieve a bright future even in remote mountains and remote areas.
Nalanjing and Rongxuan went up the mountain wearing stars and the moon. It was already Chen time when they came down the mountain. They went to plant in the fields and did not return home until lunch time.
Just after lunch, an apprentice from Wu's iron shop drove a carriage over and said in a hurry: "Miss Rong, our shopkeeper asked you to come over. Something happened at the iron shop..."
Shopkeeper Wu is taking care of the iron shop's business. Except for problems with farm equipment, there are rarely such urgent times.
Nalanjing asked the apprentice to wait while she took some banknotes with her, and Rong Xuan followed her.
Wu's iron shop's big knife killed someone.
The iron shop, which was originally bustling with people, had been sealed by the government. Wu Dong's family was taken to the Yamen for interrogation and has not yet come out.
The iron shop was closed, and Nalanjing and Rong Xuan could not get in. They had to go to the gate of the government house and wait for Wu Dong's family to come out.
The case has not yet come to light. Although the Wu Dong family is the owner of the iron shop, there is alibi evidence and there is no direct conviction. They left the government office more than an hour later.
The ancestors of Wu Dong's family were blacksmiths. Because of their good skills and their business, they opened this factory. This factory has been passed down from generation to generation.
It is said that Wu Dong's family has more than a dozen workers, but he is the only one who knows the hardships among them.
If it weren't for our ancestors who still had fertile land to sell, the factory would have been unable to survive these years.
Now that his business has just improved, but this happened, his whole spirit became a little depressed.
Nalanjing and Rong Xuan took Wu Dong's family to a nearby restaurant and served a pot of hot tea.
Wu Dongjia drank a bowl of hot tea, and his complexion improved for a long time before he slowly said: "That big knife is the ancestral sword of our old Wu family. It is extremely sharp. It has been placed at the door of the iron shop. It has been the signature of Wu's iron shop for so many years.
Nothing happened, how could someone suddenly be killed..."
Nalanjing looked solemn and said to Rongxuan: "Let's go to the iron shop and have a look."
Wu Dongjia was exhausted, so he took them to the iron shop.
The front door of the iron shop is sealed and the back door is locked. You can enter by opening the door.
Not long after, they appeared at the inner gate of the iron shop, which was also the first scene of the crime.
Because it was a person who died at the door, the iron shop discovered it in time and reported it to the government. When the government officials came over, they pulled the seal and the scene was well preserved.
The body had been taken away, and a pool of blood was quietly flowing on the ground.
The big knife was also taken back by the government because it was a murder weapon.
