Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The domineering head of the Cheng family, who shocked everyone, cried uncontrollably in front of her daughter’s grave.
The hard shell shattered with a bang. At this moment, she was just a mother who had lost her child. She was so fragile that the wind could shatter her.
Wei Ting and Su MO silently cleaned up the weeds that grew around them and did not disturb her grief and reminiscence.
Zongzheng Wei always felt that he had experienced the same loneliness as Cheng Sang.
At this moment, he suddenly didn’t feel that way.
Her life was too miserable.
Cheng Sang fainted from crying at the grave.
Wei Ting carried her back.
Wei Xu came over with incense and paper money and brought his sons to pay respects to this in-law he had never met.
The three little ones were brought over by Su MO and Su Li.
The three little ones obediently knelt beside Su Xiaoxiao and called her grandmother in a childish voice. They kowtowed three times seriously with Su Xiaoxiao.
“Is Grandma still sleeping inside?” Xiaohu asked.
Su Xiaoxiao touched his head. “Yes.”
Xiaohu spread his limbs and lay on the grave, his face pressed against it. His small hands clapped as if he was coaxing sleep.
Erhu lay beside Xiaohu.
Danu understood.
But he didn’t say anything and lay down with his brothers.
The three little packrats lay quietly and obediently on the grave, as if they were lying in Weiwei’s arms.
After offering incense to Weiwei and burning the paper money, the three little ones fell asleep on the spot.
Wei Xu carried one in each arm.
Ghostfear’s arm missed.
Hmph, he did not want to hug the little smelly farts to begin with.
The group returned to the Su family.
It was already very late, but the villagers stood at their entrance and looked around.
The news of the Su family’s meteoric rise had long spread throughout the countryside. Logically speaking, it was only right for Fat Lass and Mr. Wei to return to their hometown in glory.
However, they did not expect such a huge scene.
Any one of these old masters and young masters was more impressive than the county master, but there were a total of eight!
They all went to offer incense to Little Madam Chen!
There was also an extraordinary Madam who fainted from crying on Little Chen’s grave. It was unknown what her relationship with Little Chen was.
“Little Madam Chen was picked up by the Chen family. Could that Madam be her biological mother?”
“You don’t say. The two of them do have similar eyebrows. The other is her biological father, right?”
“I think so.”
“Back then, the Chen family didn’t take good care of them and raised her like a good-for-nothing. If they knew that she had such powerful parents, would they regret it?”
“What’s there to regret? They’re lucky. Their son was on the Imperial Rankings in high school and became a scholar. His entire family followed him to the capital to enjoy life.”
“Do you think they will find trouble with the Chen family?”
“These people are rich, but they can’t beat the scholar, right? I heard that they’re students of the Emperor!”
When Su Xiaoxiao returned to the Cheng family, Cheng Sang woke up.
Cheng Sang looked at Su Xiaoxiao’s red eyes and knew that she had cried too.
Her heart ached.
She knew how stubborn this child was. There were probably not many situations that could make her cry.
Weiwei was no longer around, but this child was.
She was only concerned about her pain and forgot that she was not the only one who had lost Weiwei.
She glanced at the door.
Wei Ting and Su MO looked inside casually.
She pulled Su Xiaoxiao into her arms and gently stroked her back. She said to the two of them at the door, “I made you worry.”
Su MO said, “It’s good that you and Sister are fine.”
Wei Ting wanted to say, “They’re my grandmother and wife.”
Su Xiaoxiao and Cheng Sang stayed in Su Xiaoxiao’s original room, while Wei Ting, Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu stayed in Su Ergou’s room.
Wei Liulang and Su Li went to snatch the small room where Wei Ting was originally recuperating.
The outcome was obvious. Su Li could not defeat Wei Liulang.
Zongzheng Wei stayed in Su Cheng’s empty room.
The others moved back to the inn in town.
When they passed by the village entrance, Zongzheng Wei pushed open the door of the village head’s house and said humbly, “Can I beg for a bite of wine?”
Su Xiaoxiao rested her forehead in Cheng Sang’s arms and didn’t move, like an aggrieved child.
“Does Xiaoxiao miss her mother?”
“Yeah.”
The originally blurry memories became clear and deep in her mind.
She remembered Little Madam Chen’s voice and smile.
Little Madam Chen always combed her hair gently and bathed Su Ergou.
That night, Su Xiaoxiao told Cheng Sang a lot about her childhood.
At least in the Su family for a few years, her daughter lived extremely comfortably.
Cheng Sang lay on the soft bed and hugged Su Xiaoxiao. She pressed his cheek against Su Xiaoxiao’s forehead. “Thanks to your Dad, and thank you and Ergou.”
“You saved Weiwei.”
Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting’s original plan was to move her mother’s grave to the graveyard of the Duke’s Protectorate in the capital. Now that her mother’s identity was revealed, Su Xiaoxiao felt that Cheng Sang might want to bring her daughter back to the Southern Wilderness.
Cheng Sang went to the grave to talk to Weiwei every day and stayed for the entire day.
Zongzheng Wei did not disturb her and just chatted with the Village Heads at the Village Head’s house all day.
How could the village head know that the person he was chatting with was His Majesty of the Southern Wilderness? When he was happy, he even placed his hand on Zongzheng Wei’s shoulder. “Brother Na, next time you come and stay at my house, I’ll treat you to a good wine!”
It was Nalan.
Forget it.
Su Xiaoxiao, Cheng Sang, Wei Ting, and the three little ones stayed in the countryside for three days. On the fourth day, they returned to town.
Princess Hui An immediately pulled Su Xiaoxiao to her room.
“Little sidekick, are you alright?”
She asked with concern.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “It’s fine. Sorry to keep you waiting, Princess. We can set off for the capital soon.”
Princess Hui An said, “If you want, you can stay for a few more days. I’m not in a hurry.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “My grandmother is anxious and wants to see Ergou and my father.”
Princess Hui An slapped her head. “That’s right. They should meet.”
When they returned to the capital, they specially went to the prefecture capital to visit Grandmaster Hui Jue, but they were told that Grandmaster Hui Jue had gone to visit a relative of the fief and did not know when she would return.
Su Xiaoxiao left a letter.
The group continued on their way and boarded the ship at the Qingzhou Ferry. What was worth mentioning was that they actually encountered water bandits halfway.
This was interesting.
On the ship, one was the God of War, Wei Xu, and the other four were the children of the Wei family. There was also the young master of the Su family’s navy, a Jade-faced Rakshasa, as well as the assassin of the Western Jin and Mei Ji.
For the first time, the water bandits felt that they had entered a bandit nest.
They boarded the ship at night and went to jail at dawn.
In June, after two months of traveling, the group finally arrived at the capital at dusk.
The burning clouds on the horizon illuminated the city wall.
The city gate had already closed.
The mighty team stopped under the city tower.
The power of one person was like a thousand troops.
Wei Xu rode his horse forward and looked up at the guards on the city wall. He said sternly, “Open the city gate.”
The guard glanced down at him.
He was newly transferred and did not know Wei Xu.
However, Wei Xu’s aura inexplicably gave him a sense of pressure.
He frowned. “If you want to enter the city, come back tomorrow!”
Wei Xu said, “I’ll say it again. Open the city gate.”
The guard sneered disdainfully. “Who are you? Let me tell you, I won’t open it even if it’s the emperor today!”
Mei Ji narrowed her eyes coldly and got out of the carriage. She rose into the air and opened her fan to shoot countless hidden weapons at the city tower.
The assassin stomped his feet and jumped up. He stepped on the hidden weapons that had sneaked into the wall and ascended to the sky in a few steps, landing steadily on the city tower!
He drew his sword and pressed it against the guard’s neck. “Open the city gate.”
“Who, who are you? This is the capital! Who dares to cause trouble under the emperor! ”
Wei Xu took the lead and looked at him coldly. He said word by word, ‘Wei Xu.”
‘What?’ The guard’s expression changed.
Ghostfear took a step forward. “Wei Chen.”
Wei Qing also urged his horse forward. “Wei Qing.” wei Liulang: ‘Wei Yan!”
Wei Ting said, ‘Wei Ting.”
Wei Xu held the reins and said with a cold gaze, “Tell Emperor Jing Xuan that the Wei family is back!”
Chapter 1068: Wei Xu I s Arrogance!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The guard and his companions were stunned.
What did that person say?
The Wei family?
Yes, they had just introduced themselves.
Wei xu…
Wait, Wei Xu?!
Everyone’s gaze landed on Wei Xu’s tall figure and looked behind him in unison.
Wei Chen, Wei Qing, Wei Yan…
They were all sons of the Wei family who had died on the battlefield. How could this be?!
The guard suspected that they were imposters, but at this moment, the guard
of the city tower came over.
The moment he saw Wei Xu, his expression changed.
The city gate was wide open.
Wei Xu said seriously, “Armor!”
Everyone changed into their armor in unison.
Every move was sonorous and powerful, and everyone’s eyes were filled with determination.
Wei Xu said, “Spread the flag!”
Ghostfear took down the flagpole from the carriage and waved it. The Wei family’s flag with red and black words fluttered under the afterglow of the setting sun.
The soldiers guarding the city were instantly filled with respect.
In the carriage, the children had fallen asleep.
Li Wan hugged Wei Xiyue and listened to her father-in-law’s intimidating voice. Feeling the movements of the armor and warhorse, her eyes teared up bit by bit.
The Wei family had waited too long for this day.
Although Su Xiaoxiao had not been married for long, from Wei Ting onwards, she had experienced the storm with everyone from the Wei family.
At this moment, the blood in her body boiled.
She touched the three sleeping children.
Emperor Jing Xuan wanted to kill all of King Nanyang’s descendants.
From the day they entered the capital, the three of them had been hiding, not daring to let anyone discover their true identities.
Although they were still so young and did not seem to know anything, they would subconsciously hide when they encountered unfamiliar people. In their small subconscious, they also knew that they could not be exposed.
In the future, they could finally live openly under the sun.
The group entered the capital.
To the citizens in the city, today was just an ordinary day in their long lives.
This was until they saw the Wei family’s flag and the dazzling golden armor under it.
The warhorse slowed down and walked steadily on the long street.
For some reason, the noisy street suddenly fell silent.
The commoners looked at the few generals who were riding their horses over in a daze. The person in the lead was wearing golden armor. His face was cold and his aura was sharp.
Behind him were four young generals in silver armor.
Everyone was surprised at first. As they watched, someone in the crowd recognized the Wei family’s flag. “It’s the Wei family army!”
A commoner said.
The vendor at the side said, “Didn’t the Wei family army disband long ago? After the war five years ago, the Wei family army was gone!”
Another commoner said, “Look at the flag! It’s so big!”
“It’s the Wei family, right?”
“The Wei family is only left with Scholar Wei and the women. How can there be so many men?”
“I remember this set of golden armor! It belongs to General Wei Xu! When the Wei family went to war, I sent them off by the roadside! I won’t remember wrongly!”
“Didn’t General Wei die in battle?”
“I heard he’s not dead.”
More and more people recognized Wei Xu. Both sides of the street were packed.
A bold young man stood on his tiptoes and asked, “Are you General Wei Xu?”
Wei Xu said, “I am.”
It was really General Wei!
General Wei had returned alive!
A young man said as if he knew everything, “That’s Eldest Young Master Wei! Behind him are Second Young Master Wei, Sixth Young Master Wei, and
Seventh Young Master Wei!”
His companion asked, “How do you know?”
The young man said excitedly, “I know their armor! I was there when the top scholar of the Seventh Young Master Wei paraded the streets. I was also there when he went to war! I know him!”
“That’s right, it’s Second Young Master Wei!”
Someone recognized Wei Qing.
His appearance had not changed much, but the accumulation of time made him look more dignified and reserved.
There were tattoos on Ghostfear’s face, and his aura had changed greatly. The once handsome, upright, and kind Young Master Wei now had a sharp killing intent.
Before Wei Liulang entered the city, he took off his mask, revealing his faintly scarred face.
The Sixth Young Master, who had once been famous in the capital and was like a jade immortal, had been in many women’s thoughts. When they saw him again, he was already unrecognizable.
“His arm… his arm..
An old man looked at the prosthetic limb exposed under the armor plate of Wei Liulang’s armor and suddenly couldn’t help but cry.
The commoners along the street were all speechless. Many people’s eyes turned red and they wiped their tears with their sleeves.
When they went to war, he was also a child.
The old man walked towards them shakily.
Worried that he would hit the old man, Wei Xu stopped the horse with his sons.
The old man touched them one by one with trembling hands and choked. “It’s good that you’re back… It’s good that you’re back…”
In a teahouse, Xiao Duye was drinking tea with his advisor.
Suddenly, he saw everyone running out of the teahouse and couldn’t help but ask, “What happened?”
The accompanying guard said, “I’ll go take a look!”
The guard left the teahouse and saw Wei Xu and the others riding over through the crowd.
His first reaction was that he was seeing things.
When he heard the crowd shout for General Wei, he hurriedly returned to the room and stammered, “Your… Your Highness, General Wei Xu is back!”
Before he could say that there were still a few young masters of the Wei family, Xiao Duye walked out with a suspicious expression.
He pushed his way through the crowd and out onto the wide long street.
It was clearly crowded on both sides, but there was no one on the streets. All the commoners spontaneously guarded the way home for the Wei family.
Xiao Duye looked at Wei Xu in a daze, then at Wei Chen and the others behind Wei xu.
His eyes widened instantly.
How… how was this… possible?
The royal prince was in front of him. Logically speaking, he had to bow and greet him.
Wei Xu did not even get off his horse. He said neither servile nor overbearing, “I’m wearing armor and I don’t kneel to the world; forgive me for not being able to give Your Highness a full bow.”
Xiao Duye opened his mouth as he was shocked speechless.
Wei Xu rode his horse and rode past Xiao Duye with his son as if no one was around.
It was not until they were far away that Xiao Duye suddenly came back to his senses.
When Wei Xu returned to the capital, the dead Wei family’s sons had also come back to life.
What was going on?
Also, did they not get off the horse and bow just now?
He was a prince!
What did the Wei family want to do?
Did they still have any regard for the royal family?
The Wei family left arrogantly. Xiao Duye gritted his teeth in anger. “Return to the palace! I want to report it to Father!”
At the Imperial Palace, Emperor Jing Xuan had just returned from the court.
Today’s morning court was another pile of memorials to impeach Qin Canglan. They said that Qin Canglan was belligerent and overeager for success. It was said that he raised troops and ruined the country; he should be deposed as the general of the world’s troops and immediately be recalled to the Imperial Court.
Naturally, there were also people who absolved Qin Canglan. They said that Qin Canglan was doing this for the 100 years of prosperity of the Great Zhou. Northern Yan was ambitious. If the Great Zhou did not beat them until they cried for their parents, they would make a comeback.
Emperor Jing Xuan was not in a hurry to deal with Qin Canglan. Anyway, he had cut off Qin Canglan’s rations. Qin Canglan would one day humble himself and beg him for rations.
What he cared about the most now was Wei Xu.
The envoy who had gone to the Southern Wilderness had returned, and his second son had returned to the capital.
His second son had suffered a lot and was still recuperating in the residence.
However, according to his second son and the envoys, they had not seen Wei Xu in the Southern Wilderness, nor had they heard any news about him.
So was Wei Xu alive or dead?
If the Great Zhou was attacked from both sides, he naturally hoped that Wei Xu could survive.
But now, there was no advantage to him if Wei Xu lived. Instead, he would become a threat to him.
He would not kill Wei Xu. After all, killing a hero would leave a bad reputation for ten thousand years.
Therefore, he could only hope that Wei Xu would die at the hands of the Southern Wilderness.
“Your Majesty!”
A young eunuch hurriedly came to the Imperial Study. “The city guard sent news that the Wei family is back!”
Emperor Jing Xuan said, “Wei Ting?”
The young eunuch said, “There’s, there’s Wei Xu!”
Emperor Jing Xuan paused. “Is he alive… or dead?”
The young eunuch said nervously, “Alive! Alive! Not only did General Wei Xu return, but even Eldest Young Master Wei, Second Young Master Wei… and Sixth Young Master Wei… returned alive!! !” Click.
The brush in Emperor Jing Xuan’s hand fell..
