Chapter 25 Chapter 25

The journey to the Dragon Palace was very difficult and dangerous, and the seven people were all masters of martial arts, and it took them more than an hour to arrive at the Qingshi Avenue in front of the palace gate.From a distance, you can see the towering gate of the Dragon Palace, the flying dragon and the pillars, which are majestic and magnificent.When he got closer, he saw a tall and strong middle-aged man standing at the door, wearing a green cloth robe and sword eyebrows, he had an extraordinary bearing.The four gang members bowed to him and saluted, saying: "Guangzhu!" That person was indeed Yun Longying.He lowered his head and looked at Zhao Guan for a few times, then he clasped his fists to Cheng Da as a salute.Cheng Da clasped his fists in return, the two met.Leader Yun then invited the two of them into the palace, sat down and served tea, asked about things on the way, and said: I heard that Leader Zhang set off from Suzhou with the second in mid-April, and estimated that they would arrive around the tenth of last month. delay?

Cheng Da said: There is no delay.Zhao Guan has never traveled long distances. I took him to see the wonders of the mountains and rivers along the way. Sometimes the scenery is so beautiful that I stayed for a few days longer, so the journey was slower. Please don't be offended, Lord Yun. Leader Yun knew that the prodigal son Cheng Da was working with Zhao Guan, but he didn't know the relationship between him and Zhao Guan, and why he came all the way to the Dragon Palace, and wanted to ask, but felt that it was inappropriate. What is the intention of Da Shanglonggong, he finally couldn't help saying: Cheng Daxia, I have admired your martial arts for a long time, and I have always hoped to have the opportunity to ask you for advice.I have a precious sword, which is said to have been used by the sword king Hu Da.Your Excellency is the only descendant of the King of Swords, and I dare to ask Cheng Daxia to appraise it.Please become a hero and move.He also ordered: Ah Fu, bring some snacks for the young master.Then he led Cheng Da to a side room in the back hall and closed the door.

Zhao Guan watched them walk away, feeling nervous and amused at the same time, these two are heroes in the world, and they both think that they are their sons, so if they talk behind closed doors, what will come out of the talk? After a meal, Cheng Da and Master Yun came out together. The two talked and laughed happily, with a calm expression on their faces, as if they had ever had a dispute or talked about any embarrassing things.Looking at the two of them, Zhao Guan felt suspicious.The three of them sat and chatted for a while about what they had seen and heard on the road, all of which were ramblings.After a while, a servant came in and said, "Report to the lord: Ma'am, please."Leader Yun nodded, apologized to the two, and walked into the inner hall.

Cheng Da got up and walked towards the courtyard, looked back at Zhao Guan, and motioned for him to follow.The two walked into the courtyard next to the hall one after another, Zhao Guan looked at Cheng Da's back, his heart was beating wildly, and he thought to himself: What is he going to say to me?Is he going to tell me my biological father's secret?Who is my father?Or they don't know? But he saw Chengda turn around and smile at himself.Zhao Guan also forced a smile.Cheng Da said: "Zhao Guan, I'm going down the mountain soon."You stay here, be careful in everything, obediently don't make trouble.

Zhao Guan just felt his heart sinking, and wanted to ask: Is Master Yun really my father?How do you know?Before asking, Cheng Da said again: There are only two things you should pay attention to.Master Yun knew your mother, but he didn't know that she was Ji Huohe from the Three Flowers of Wulin, nor did he know that you were from the Baihuamen.I didn't say anything, you can tell him or not, it's all up to you.Second, the sword technique I taught you, don't show it in front of others, find a secluded place on the mountain to practice morning and evening, don't relax. Zhao Guan nodded, knowing that Chengda was about to leave, tears welled up in his eyes.After Cheng Da finished speaking, he walked back to the hall, and at this time, Gang Leader Yun had also come out. Zhao Guan heard Cheng Da say goodbye to Yun Longying, hurriedly wiped away his tears, and walked quickly to the hall, thinking: This matter must be clarified. !But seeing Cheng Da and Yun Longying shaking hands and saying goodbye, they were very affectionate. In this situation, it is difficult to ask who is his father.He stayed there, but when he saw Chengda walking towards him, he patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Zhao Guan, you are still young, don't drink too much, you know?"Zhao Guan couldn't speak, just nodded.

Cheng Da bowed his hand to Gang Leader Yun, turned around and left the hall, strode out of the palace gate, and left down the mountain. Zhao Guan chased him out, looking at his back, he felt a sense of melancholy, not knowing what it was like.But behind him, the leader Yun said: Ah Fu, you lead the young master to the room to rest.Youshi is having dinner, so you take him to the dining room.Madame wants to see him. Zhao Guan turned around, but saw that Master Yun had already started talking with the two gang members around him, the servant Ah Fu approached and gestured for him to go to the palace.He turned his head and saw Chengda's back had disappeared behind the mountain, so he followed Ah Fu.

The building of the Dragon Palace is majestic and strange, and the roads are full of twists and turns, but Zhao Guan is not in the mood to look carefully at the layout, and followed Ah Fu for a while, and came to a side room.Ah Fu opened the door for him and said: Young master, this is your room. Zhao Guan saw that the room was neatly arranged, with a small hall in the center, a bedroom on the left and a study on the right.He walked into the bedroom and saw that there were all bedding and pillows on the bed. He opened the closet and found that all kinds of clothes were neatly folded. Ah Fu smiled and said: Young master, the master knew that you were coming, so he ordered the maids to sew the clothes for the four seasons for you.

When Zhao Guan was in Qingfeng Pavilion, although his life was better than that of ordinary servants, he only had a small bedroom and three sets of clothes.This room was bigger than his mother's room, and the closet was full of new clothes. He couldn't help being flattered and thought: They really regard me as a young master?Who is that grandma, is it the wife of Chief Yun?He turned his head and smiled at Afu, and said: Uncle Afu, thank you for your hard work.Those aunts sewed clothes for me, please thank them for me.As for grandma, I have to thank her in person.Ah Fu laughed and said: Young master is considerate of servants, we can't afford it.Just now the master ordered that for dinner tonight, grandma wants to see the young master, so the young master should thank her in person.

Zhao Guan asked in a low voice: Uncle Afu, how is grandma's temper?Tell me, please, lest I reply impolitely later.Ah Fu said: "How is your madam's temper? How dare a villain talk nonsense?" Zhao watched him with disappointment and anxiety on his face.Ah Fu couldn't bear it, so he said, "To tell you the truth, my grandma is very serious and doesn't like others to joke with her."She became angry and cursed very fiercely.Zhao Guan nodded, thinking: You must often flatter horses on their legs and be scolded by her.Hmph, what did a serious old woman do to treat me so well?She wants me to recognize her as my mother, never mind.

Zhao Guan is used to getting along with the companions in the Qingfeng Pavilion as servants, so he chatted with Ah Fu immediately, slowly figured out the situation from his mouth, and soon came up with a general idea: it turns out that the leader of the Yun clan has no children, and Mrs. Yun only has children. She gave birth to a daughter, three years older than Zhao Guan, exactly seventeen this year, and she has promised to the eldest son of Huxiao Villa, Ling Biyi.Although Master Yun has taken in many disciples, he still regrets not having a son. He was extremely happy to find a son in his middle age, and determined to raise him well, hoping that he can inherit the incense of the Yun family.

Zhao Guan was puzzled and thought to himself: I don't know if you are my father yet, so you have to educate me well and let me inherit the incense of your Yun family.Fuck, are you crazy or am I crazy? That night a maid came to his room to help him wash and change his clothes.Zhao Guan teased her to joke, but she just smiled and didn't answer.It was about the time of You, Ah Fu came to the door and led Zhao Guan to the dining room.Zhao Guan saw blue lanterns everywhere in the palace, and thought: This dragon gang is very rich, lighting so many lanterns every night, it's like my Qingfeng Pavilion attracting guests.Lanterns are not red but blue, so spooky and frightening? When he came to the dining room, he saw a middle-aged woman sitting in the hall, wearing an embroidered satin gown, which was very elegant, with a rich round face without rouge, drooping corners of her mouth, with a cold expression.Seeing him coming in, the woman only snorted softly, but didn't speak.Zhao Guan couldn't help feeling disgusted, thinking: those old madams in the courtyard put on makeup, I don't think they look very good anymore, I didn't expect the old women to look even more ugly without makeup.Ah Fu pushed him behind him, and said in a low voice: "Meet grandma soon." Zhao Guan walked up a few steps, bowed and said, "Grandma is good." The woman turned her head, glanced at him, then turned her head away again, still not speaking.Zhao Guan stood there, not knowing what to do, so he walked to the side and sat down.At this moment, a girl came out from behind the screen.Zhao Guan's eyes lit up, but he saw that the girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with bright eyes and white teeth, a beautiful and charming appearance, and a noble and elegant demeanor, she presumably was the only daughter of Gangzhu Yun.The girl first gave her mother a blessing, then turned her head to glance at Zhao Guan, then looked at her mother, and said: "Mother, is this the child that father found?" The woman snorted and said, "Isn't it?The children who came out of the dirty place really didn't have the slightest upbringing.Fanfan, go and teach him how to come to see me. Yun Feifei said: Yes.He came to Zhao Guan and said, "Little brother, this is my mother."When you meet her for the first time, you should kneel down and kowtow to her.Come, let me take you to salute.As he spoke, he took his hand and took him to kowtow to Mrs. Yun. Seeing her kindness, Zhao Guan couldn't refuse her, but he refused to kowtow to the woman after all, so he said, "Sister, I only kowtow to heaven and earth rulers, kitchen gods, loyal ministers and heroes, where is your mother?" A sort of? Mrs. Yun couldn't help being furious when she heard this, she stood up suddenly, her eyes widened, she was so angry that she couldn't speak for a while.
