”What?!”
Lu Chen’s words immediately made Long Xiuxian feel as if he had been struck by lightning, and his face instantly turned pale.
The Purple City Rebellion ten years ago is still a taboo that cannot be mentioned.
The death of Princess Xiliang has been an unsolved mystery for many years.
This “unsolvable mystery” is not really unsolvable, but that no one dares to solve it.
Even the king of Xiliang, who was so powerful in his power, was forced to endure it in the end. Who would dare to really seek out the truth?
At that time, officials kept saying that they would find out the real culprit, but in the end they still left the matter unsolved.
This is enough to prove that the mastermind behind the unrest in Purple City must be extremely powerful!
It even involves the supreme imperial power!
Although the Long family has a great business, it is still not worth mentioning in front of those powerful relatives of the emperor and the country.
So after hearing Lu Chen’s needs, Long Xiuxian was shocked, panicked and scared.
The water here is too deep. Once the Long family gets involved in it, they may be catastrophic at any time!
”Master Long, don’t be too nervous. I’m not asking you to die. Why are you so afraid?”
Lu Chen restrained his sharpness, smiled slightly, and returned to his calm appearance.
”Little…little prince, I can agree to the first two conditions, but I really can’t help with this matter.” Long Xiuxian cried sadly, feeling very aggrieved.
Once the taboo that has been dusty for ten years is restarted, it will be a shocking turmoil.
”Master Long, if I remember correctly, my mother should have helped your Long family back then, right?” Lu Chen suddenly asked.
”This…” Long Xiuxian was speechless for a moment.
At that time, the Long family almost suffered a disaster because of being unable to think about it.
In desperation, he could only turn to the powerful King of Xiliang for help.
As a result, the king of Xiliang didn’t like to meddle in other people’s business and didn’t bother to deal with him.
In the end, the princess begged for mercy and persuaded the King of Xiliang herself to help the Long family escape.
He will always remember this kindness in his heart.
”It seems that you haven’t forgotten what happened back then.”
Lu Chen smiled faintly: “My mother has done good deeds throughout her life and never asked for anything in return, but I am different. I have to get back whatever is owed to me. Master Long, the lives of more than 100 members of your Long family belong to me.” Mother saved her, shouldn’t you… should repay her?”
Hearing this, Long Xiuxian fell silent.
Holding the tea cup in both hands, he refused to speak for a long time, his eyes full of confusion.
Lu Chen poured himself another cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. His tone remained calm: “Master Long, don’t get me wrong. I’m not asking you to avenge my mother. I just hope that you can help secretly investigate what happened back then. That’s all, this request shouldn’t be too much, right?”
Long Xiuxian’s hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly, and the tea in the cup rippled.
Just like in his heart.
After pondering for a long time, Long Xiuxian took a deep breath, his hands suddenly stabilized, and the tea slowly returned to calm.
”Okay, I promise you.”
No unnecessary nonsense, just a few simple words.
Calm and determined.
There is no way to repay the kindness of saving a life.
Now, he could only use his own meager strength to comfort the princess’s spirit in heaven.
”Thank you, Lord Long.”
Lu Chen stood up solemnly, clasped his hands and bowed deeply.
”You’re welcome, little prince, this is what I should do.”
Long Xiuxian quickly stood up, helped Lu Chen upright, and said with a wry smile. “That’s all I can do…”
He did not dare to avenge the princess, nor did he have the ability.
He could only help Lu Changge secretly and repay his kindness.
”That’s enough.” Lu Chen smiled slightly: “At least it proves that my mother didn’t save the wrong person back then.”
”Ashamed…” Long Xiuxian shook his head.
”Master Long, it’s getting late, so I won’t bother you here. If you have any news, please contact me at any time.”
After leaving each other’s numbers, Chase Lu decisively resigned and left.
To gain a foothold in Yanjing and investigate the truth, the help of these wealthy families is indispensable.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to avenge his mother with his own strength.
