Monarch of Evernight: In the Past of 169

bsp;Everything in the house was intact except for her absence. The only thing that disappeared with her was a piece of crystal. It was not a high-end product, but a gift that Zhao Weihuang bought for her from a passing caravan with his first month's salary after settling in the town. It was also the only crystal that disappeared with her. One gift at a time.

Zhao Weihuang didn't seem surprised, as if she was still at home, he greeted her, sat down to eat, and told her about the interesting things that happened in the town today. The chair she usually sat on was empty, and Zhao Weihuang was talking to an empty chair like that.

At this time, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a group of Zhao clan warriors rushed in. The first old man was Duke Xuan Yuan's great help, and he was also the one who watched Zhao Weihuang grow up. When they saw Zhao Weihuang, they all breathed a sigh of relief. As the wedding date approached, Duke Xuan Yuan finally made up his mind to use the secret method, and he found Zhao Weihuang.

"Uncle Wu, please go out first. I will follow you back after dinner." Zhao Weihuang said calmly, but his tone did not allow for disobedience. The man who would later ascend to the throne of the Zhao Clan leader showed for the first time the majesty of a true superior.

Zhao Weihuang finished dinner, packed up the dishes, and left home and this town.

In the days that followed, life got back on track.

Zhao Weihuang successfully married Princess Gaoyi, officially took charge of the clan, and at the same time obtained the Wolf Smoke Legion establishment. After winning consecutive battles in the outer league, Northwest Wolf Smoke's reputation grew. In the inner league, he won four sons, all of whom had excellent talents, especially the fourth son, Zhao Jundu. During the full moon, the talent test was full of strange phenomena, and he was as bright as the sun. He was actually a rare super.

As a child of a powerful family, Zhao Weihuang seemed to have everything, power, merit, heirs, and a bright and smooth future.

Until that year, the Yanyun Zhao family and the dark kingdom once again entered a full-scale war. Zhao Weihuang led a team to rescue Youtong Pass, and had an encounter with the dark race on the way, and narrowly won. Unfortunately, it was a human town that became the battlefield. After the battle, the whole town was almost reduced to ruins.

Zhao Weihuang saw her again among the ruins.

When she raised her head, a tall figure in military uniform was reflected in her indifferent eyes, and it seemed as if the nearly ten years of separation between them did not exist at all.

Except that she already possesses the eighth-level force, nothing seems to have changed, the same breath, the same joy, the same addiction.

However, when Zhao Weihuang woke up the next day, she disappeared quietly again, as if this night was just a dream.

The war ahead was tense, so Zhao Weihuang could only stay behind to follow him and search for him, while he led the team to continue rushing to the battlefield. Naturally, she found nothing. She was not a small town resident, perhaps just an occasional traveler. The world is so vast that even with the power of the Zhao clan, it is impossible to find the woman who calls herself Ye Ji.

When Zhao Weihuang thought that this encounter would sink into the depths of his memory again, someone suddenly came to Zhao Clan with a baby in his arms and asked to see Zhao Weihuang by name.

That was an extremely ordinary old civilian woman. In addition to the baby, she also gave Zhao Weihuang a crystal lock piece. Gold, silver, and jade were popular in imperial jewelry, but crystals were rare. The material of this crystal is very ordinary. For a family like Zhao Clan, it is not a good ornament. However, when Zhao Weihuang got it, he immediately recognized that this was what he had bought with his first salary. That crystal.

The carving of the lock plate is equally poor. The only surprising thing is that the patterns on it are actually two ancient runes. It is said that the generation of ancient runes was before the birth of the people of darkness, and was related to the origin of the avenue. It is so difficult that even the strong men of the dark race cannot master a few of them. But when he saw these two runes, Zhao Weihuang naturally understood the meaning.

That is: Qianye.

According to the old woman, she was asked by a seriously ill woman to return the child to his father. At this point, Zhao Weihuang still didn't understand what was going on, but when he and the old woman went to the town where the woman spent her last days, they couldn't even find her bones from the mass graves where outsiders were buried.

Afterwards, the identity of the old woman was screened countless times, but she was just an ordinary civilian in the Zhao clan's territory. The entire family had been born and raised here for generations. For a moment, she felt compassion for that person. The dead woman fulfilled her final request, and there really is no doubt about it.

In the end, Zhao Weihuang had no choice but to give up and accept this fact.

However, at that time, Zhao Weihuang was young and energetic, acted as he pleased without any thought of covering up, and acted too much. The news reached the ears of Princess Gaoyi, who was pregnant. Zhao Ruoxi was born.

Speaking of this, Zhao Weihuang sighed and seemed to have suddenly aged ten years. After a long while, he said: "What happened back then was really a fate."

Qianye looked calm on his face, but his heart was filled with ups and downs. From the Yin Ma Yin family to the Song family in Gaoling, he has seen a lot of chaos within the family. He really has no good impression of the so-called high-ranking people, but now he actually heard such a past event from the mouth of the man in front of him. It was unexpected. Besides, the resentment and injustice that persisted due to old wounds were slowly fading away.

Zhao Weihuang looked at the young man standing in front of him like a Yue Zhi, with mixed feelings in his heart.

The so-called imperial bloodline not only means noble status, it also means strong ability and huge potential. Princess Gaoyi had a high status in the imperial family before she got married. This was because of the purity of the emperor's blood. The late emperor had passed away twenty years ago, but she can still mobilize some of the imperial family's resources and still has some influence in the clan. It can be seen that back then, Sheng.

The appearance of Qianye made Princess Gaoyi's face dim. If only that was the case. The children of any high-ranking family were not young and confused when they were young. But Zhao Weihuang's undisguised actions back then clearly showed his affection for the unknown woman.

This move was tantamount to a slap in the face of Princess Gaoyi, tearing apart the illusion of harmony between husband and wife that had been maintained for nearly ten years. However, during the next bloodline and talent test for Qianye, after Ruo Ruo slapped Princess Gaoyi head-on, he slapped her again with her backhand, and the slap was even harder.

Not only is Qianye, who is under one year old, indeed of the Zhao family’s bloodline, he is actually born with raw crystals in his body!

The ability of the original crystal is endless. As long as it exists, the vitality of the body will be endless. No matter how serious the damage is, it will slowly recover as before. It is the best assistant for practice and combat. Although this is not a powerful attack ability, the appearance of the original crystal means a direct path to the divine general. With such talent, he can stand shoulder to shoulder with Zhao Jundu.

After learning about Qianye's talent, all the elders of the Zhao clan fell silent and stopped talking about the son's return to the clan. Fortunately, Zhao Weihuang finally retained some sobriety and immediately issued a gag order to block the news and prevent it from being spread. In the end, only a few people at the top of the Zhao family knew about this matter.

On Princess Gaoyi's side, Zhao Ruoxi, who was busy taking care of her newborn, ignored the matter. After assigning Qianye the status of a concubine of the Zhao clan, she ignored it. Everything seemed calm.

The Zhao Mansion, which was a peaceful place, finally underwent a big change two years later.

It happened suddenly. As the New Year approaches, the rebels in the Western Continent are in chaos again, and Zhao Weihuang returns to the front line to take charge of the overall situation. Princess Gaoyi took her children to the imperial capital to attend the New Year's family banquet as usual. Zhao Ruoxi had never left the Western Continent because she was young and frail. This was the first time she entered the palace.

At this New Year's imperial family banquet, a major event happened that shocked the empire. The famous gun Manjushahua, who had been dormant for many years, recognized his master. Everyone remembers the master of this generation of Manjushahua, Zhao Clan, Zhao Ruoxi.

But what people don't know is that after the famous gun recognized its owner, Zhao Ruoxi became critically ill that night, and several senior ministers of the imperial family paid a huge price to stabilize her condition. It turns out that Zhao Ruoxi was born weak and had a short lifespan. After being connected to Manshu Shahua's soul, she could not contain such a powerful force.

Zhao Weihuang stopped talking again.

Qianye took a long breath and understood most of it, "Force plundering, so it is like this. So, the original crystal is now in the fifth lady's body?"

Zhao Weihuang nodded heavily.

Qianye was not angry or gloomy. His face, which had always been calm and almost indifferent, slowly melted away, and he said: "This ending is not bad."

"You" see Qianye like this, Zhao Weihuang doesn't know what to say.

Qianye said calmly: "I am a concubine after all, so I have no choice."

In a large family, the status of a **** may be lower than that of a powerful branch, and his existence is a thorn in Princess Gaoyi's heart. What's more, given the situation at that time, as long as Zhao Ruoxi could be saved, no price could be paid. Not to mention Princess Gaoyi and the imperial family, even the elders of the Zhao family would probably make the same choice.

However, there was one last question. Qianye asked: "Then what? What happened." How did he appear in the garbage dump of Yongye Continent.

Zhao Weihuang could not give him an answer. When Manshu Shahua recognized his master and the news came that Zhao Ruoxi was critically ill, Zhao Weihuang felt something was wrong. Zhao Weihuang and Princess Gaoyi immediately had a big quarrel.

Who would have known that on the night when Zhao Weihuang rushed to Princess Gaoyi's courtyard, a murder occurred in the courtyard where Qianye lived. Many unknown masters invaded and the guards suffered heavy casualties. When the rest of the Zhao clan arrived, not only were all the invaders killed, but they also destroyed their bodies.

According to the surviving guards, the goal of the invaders was to kill Qianye. When they were about to be unable to resist, a strong man wearing the Zhao Clan guard uniform broke in and killed most of the intruders. He took Qianye away.

At that time, foreign enemies invaded, half of the Zhao clan was alerted, and the outer defense line was activated. The man actually broke through several defenses and injured more than a dozen Zhao Clan masters. Even two twelfth-level generals came together, and it didn't take much time. The man was seriously injured on the spot, but he still managed to break through the encirclement.

Afterwards, it was verified that the man who took Qianye away was indeed a subordinate of the Zhao clan. He was a master with a foreign surname. He had joined the Zhao clan for several years and was among the best in combat power among the younger generation at that time. However, this man was usually the same as Zhao Weihuang. There was no relationship at all, and this result puzzled everyone. The Zhao family then blocked the ports in various places and searched the surrounding cities, but the man disappeared and there was no news again.

Qianye couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. This was even more surprising to him than Princess Gaoyi's answer that she wanted to eradicate him.

Zhao Weihuang sighed in his heart, except for the servants and guards who took care of Qianye, Zhao Jundu was the last person to see Qianye.
