Chapter 52
Inside the Santo's Mansion
Nangong Shiluo was also awakened by the shouts of killing in the city, and the late night a month ago was also the same as today.

Last time, Shangguan's house was destroyed, and its wreckage was broken. She still clearly remembers the scene after the fire, and that scene made it difficult for her to sleep.

Get up and open the door to see the city lord's mansion, the lights are on, several maids, together with her personal maid, Lian'er, are guarding the door nervously.

Outside the courtyard, soldiers in armor stood guard at the gate with serious expressions.

"Miss, you're awake!" Lian'er said when she saw her lady got up and opened the door and came out.

Nangong Shiluo frowned and said:
"Lian'er, what's going on here, where did the shouting sound come from? Could it be that those families are full and have nothing to do, so they are tossing around?"

"I don't know about this, but the master just ordered us to guard the door. At the same time, he asked the young lady not to leave the house until dawn."

Hearing that her own maid didn't know, and seeing soldiers guarding the gate of the courtyard, Nangong Shiluo reluctantly returned to her room, looked at the flames that dyed half of the sky red with a displeased face, and sighed with her heart full of thoughts.

In the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Nangong Yulie was sitting on a chair, tapping the wooden chair with his fingers, as if he was waiting for someone.

Hearing the sound from outside getting smaller and smaller, the smile on Nangong Yulie's face became bigger and bigger.

At this time, a man in black suddenly appeared in the hall, knelt on one knee and said:
"My lord, all the people from the two gangs and the two associations were wiped out. Leng Yueru led all his subordinates at the Phoenix Dance Party to seek refuge with Shangguan Qiuyu, and the Shangguan family will be successful."

"Hmm, press?" Nangong Yulie smiled very much when he heard that Shangguan Qiuyu wiped out all the people from the two gangs and the two associations.But when he heard that Shangguan Qiuyu accepted the Phoenix Ball, his expression became pale.

He waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to go down, then frowned slightly in thought.

As soon as the man in black retreated to the door, he saw a luxuriously dressed woman walking from the side. As soon as the man in black saw the woman, he disappeared quickly.

The woman just glanced at the man in black and walked straight into the hall without opening her mouth.

As soon as the woman came in, Nangong Yulie came back to his senses, smiled and said:

"lady"

The woman didn't speak, and went directly behind her husband, and stretched out her hand to press his head to make her husband relax.

After a long while, the shouts of killing outside sounded again, but this time it was much quieter than the previous three times, and it stopped after a while.

"Husband, is that child Qiu Yu back?"

the woman asked softly.

Nangong Yulie said unhappily:

"It's that kid who disturbs people's dreams at night." But he didn't hide it from his wife.

The woman was a little worried:
"Then, will he be all right?"

In his opinion, when Shangguan Qiuyu escaped, there were only about a hundred people like Hei Yiwei, and his own martial arts were not high. Now he came to take revenge in less than two months, which made her feel a little worried.

After all, she also watched Shangguan Qiuyu grow up. She has no son, and every time she sees Shangguan Qiuyu, she unconsciously likes him very much.

Especially when he saw Shangguan Qiuyu and his daughter together, seeing that his daughter liked him, he had already identified Shangguan Qiuyu as his future son-in-law.

What happened more than a month ago, she was also somewhat annoyed by her husband's behavior.

But, no matter what, the husband is a husband after all, and after Nangong Yulie's various explanations, she finally lost her anger and spared her husband.

Nangong Yulie shook his head and said:

"Don't worry, it's someone else, not him. That kid, after arriving at Tianyun Lake, took in a group of water bandits, his martial arts have reached the acquired level, and he even has a third-rate subordinate."

"Now, his vengeance has been avenged, and the Shangguan family has risen again under his hands. It was because of his husband that he underestimated him. I didn't expect him to do it so quickly. Shangguan Honglie died without regret."

Speaking of this, Nangong Yulie seemed to have relieved a lot of the burden on his body, and there was a trace of pity between his brows.

Immediately, I heard the woman seriously say:

"Then you should give the letter to that child Qiu Yu, otherwise he will continue to misunderstand, and when Shi Luo sees him, the two children will end up~"

"This..." Nangong Yulie hesitated when he heard his wife's words, and he was very entangled in his heart.

I don't know if I should give the letter to Shangguan Qiuyu, if I hand it in, the misunderstanding between the two families will be resolved, and my daughter may not go to the National Academy to study as he wants.

But if you don't hand it over to him, with Shangguan Qiuyu's viciousness now, maybe the misunderstanding will get deeper and deeper in the future, and then even hand over the letter to him.

I'm also afraid that he won't believe it anymore, and it is possible to turn against each other.

Seeing that her husband was hesitant, the woman was a little displeased, and said to him:

"What, what, since you think that Qiu Yu is a good kid, and now he is already at the acquired level at a young age, why are you hesitating? When you pass the martial arts to him, you are afraid that he will break through. It’s not enough if you don’t reach the first-class realm.”

Immediately, the woman asked again, there was a tiger who didn't show his strength, and you thought I was a sick cat, and said to her husband:

"Don't think I don't know what you did behind my back, I saw it when Nangong Xue went out just now.

Hmph, okay, how did you tell me back then, isn't he dead?How come you're alive now?Press? "

amount

Nangong Yulie saw his wife like this, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and looked at his wife with embarrassment.

He quickly got up, gave his seat to his wife, let her sit down, and helped her squeeze her shoulders.

Lian Sheng said:
"Okay, okay, I'll ask our daughter to call him over tomorrow morning, and then hand over the letter to him."

Immediately, he said in a non-negotiable tone:

"As for the matter of the National Academy, there is no need to discuss this matter, we have to go, but I let Qiu Yu go with our daughter, that's okay."

Seeing that her husband had already paid attention, the woman said no more, nodded and said:
"Well, with Qiu Yu's child here, I won't be afraid that our daughter will be bullied."

'call'

Seeing that his wife agreed, Nangong Yulie let go of his heart. He was most afraid that his wife would disagree with him.

Although this kind of thing rarely happens, as long as it happens, he must make concessions in the end.

Just after Nangong Yulie thought the matter was over like this, the woman suddenly asked again:

"Then what happened to Nangong Xue?"

Seeing his wife's words changed, Nangong Yulie smiled wryly in his heart and said, "Sure enough, my wife is not so easy to fool. '

Up to now, there is nothing to hide, so he opened his mouth and said to his wife:
"Since we came to Jishui County, after Shi Luo was born, I used my status as the city lord to let Nangong Xue secretly recruit people to become powerful.

Back then, because of my father, I was relegated to Jishui, and I had to suffer so much for you to accompany me along the way, which made me feel very guilty.

From then on, I swore that I would not let you and your wife suffer any wrongdoing in the future, so I handed everything I learned to Nangong Xue and the other four.

Let them grow up, and now the four of them have already reached the second-rate peak state, which is no worse than you. "

……

The woman listened quietly to her husband's narration, without any intention of interrupting, let alone being angry that her husband was hiding it from her, she just put her head in her husband's arms.
