When Lanba Academy was preparing to enroll students and start the school year, the political situation of the Star Luo Empire in the south suddenly became turbulent due to the incident in the Wuhun City finals.

After Davis was brought back to Star Luo, Emperor Dai Tianfeng happened to be away from Star Luo City, and Queen Zhu Wei urgently summoned all the doctors in the main city to come to the palace for treatment.

As the first heir to the Xingluo royal family, how could he be a eunuch so casually?

Zhu Wei immediately blocked the news in the palace, and no one was allowed to visit, including her in-laws Zhu family.

When the treatment effect was not satisfactory, she hurriedly sent her confidants to the south and notified the emperor Dai Tianfeng to return to the palace as soon as possible.

Star Luo City, Zhu Family.

Zhu Zhuyun's temperament changed drastically when she returned home. She used to be competitive and cheerful, but suddenly she became taciturn.

She often stood in the back garden and watched the sky, and also released the canary she had kept for several years.

Her mother, Gu Man, thought she was worried about Davis. After all, there were constant rumors in Xingluo City these days, and the news that Davis was infertile had begun to circulate secretly.

No emperor would tolerate the severing of the bloodline, and no emperor would pass the throne to an infertile prince, even if the prince was good enough.

"Zhuyun, don't worry too much. Our Xingluowuhuatianbao has outstanding people and many extraordinary talents. Weiss's condition should get better. Don't listen to those market rumors." Gu Man consoled him from the side. .

In fact, the rumors in Xingluo City were spread by Zhu Zhuyun through trickery. At this moment, she and Wang Siming had the same mind. Whether she could remarry into the Xingluo royal family and become the queen was completely unattractive to her.

"Mom, please don't comfort me. I saw it clearly at the scene. I'm afraid the rumors are not true. By the way, how is Third Sister doing now?"

When Zhu Zhuyun mentioned his third sister Zhu Zhuya, Gu Man knew that the eldest daughter was looking for a way out.

The Zhu family has been matching up with the Dai family because of martial arts issues. Zhu Zhuya and Xingluo's second prince Dai Li are similar in age, so they also got engaged when they were young.

Later, Dai Li died unexpectedly, and their marriage was automatically dissolved. Zhu Zhuya also left Xingluo City and transferred to Kwell College in the south.

"The son of Duke Kwell is pursuing her. There is a high probability that she will marry into the Duke's palace when she comes of age. You should not make any plans in this regard. After all, Davis is the eldest son of the emperor, but it all depends on Emperor Tianfeng's consideration. ..”

"Hmph, with the ruthlessness of the Dai family, if Davis is really crippled, it's not even a matter of whether he can survive." Zhu Zhuyun snorted coldly.

"Hey, my aunt is really serious. My relatives don't allow me to visit. If we know the result earlier, we can prepare for a rainy day." Gu Man said.

"Where's father?"

"They seem to be accompanying Emperor Tianfeng to Kwell. Such a big thing happened to Weiss, I guess they will be back soon."

After the mother and daughter waited for more than ten days, Dai Tianfeng returned from the south, but Zhu Zhuyun's father did not return to Xingluo City.

Just when Zhu Zhuyun and the two were wondering, Dai Tianfeng's close servant came to report: Emperor Tianfeng was assassinated while inspecting the Kingdom of Kwell. Mingxing Hou Zhu Yuan died in a fight with the assassin, and his body is still stored in Kwell.

Although Zhu Yuan is not a Titled Douluo, he is still in the late Contra realm. Moreover, Emperor Tianfeng is a Titled Douluo. What assassin has such great ability to assassinate?

"Who is the assassin?" Gu Man felt a little dizzy. She didn't believe that her husband would die.

"I haven't found out. His Majesty is probably from Wuhun Palace." The waiter replied.

"So he escaped?" Zhu Zhuyun asked with a puzzled look on his face.

The waiter wanted to say: "I don't know the specific situation. The queen, Madam Xuanhouye, came to the palace to discuss it in detail."

"Zhuyun, I have to go to the palace now. You go to Xingluo Royal Academy to bring your second brother Zhuhai home." Gu Man ordered.

"I know mother."

Although it was difficult for Gu Man to accept the fact that Zhu Yuan was killed in battle, she was the mistress of the Zhu Mansion after all, and her innate sense of the overall situation forced her to think comprehensively.

Zhu Yuan is not only Gu Man's husband, but also the Ning Luo Marquis of the Xing Luo Empire. He is also the leader of the Nether Clan.

The Zhu family has been able to maintain a marriage relationship with the royal Dai family for a long time. The Nether family plays a vital relationship behind the scenes. After Zhu Yuan's death, those collateral blood relatives will inevitably not jump out to seize power.

If Zhu Zhuhai cannot successfully inherit the position of clan leader, the Mingluo Hou bloodline may decline by then.

Zhu Zhuyun is so smart, mother and daughter left the house at the same time to do various things.

It was late at night before Gu Man slowly walked out of Xingluo Palace, her beautiful face completely occupied by exhaustion.

"Mom, how is the situation?" Zhu Zhuyun was relatively calm, while his second brother Zhu Zhuhai asked excitedly.

"The situation has been confirmed. We have to rush to Kwell overnight. In addition, Zhuyun, you must be mentally prepared." Gu Man hesitated before speaking.

"Mother, tell me, I can bear it." Zhu Zhuyun said with determination.

"The royal family may want to choose Dai Mubai as the heir. Emperor Tianfeng seems to have sent people to Tiandou to find him. I'm afraid your position as queen will be..." Gu Man sighed sadly.

"I don't care, let's set off as soon as possible." Zhu Zhuyun felt very heavy because she had been paired with Davis since she was a child, so Zhu Yuan and Gu Man were much better to her than the other three younger siblings.

"Then let's go." Gu Man was in a state of confusion. Not only did she have to help her 18-year-old son succeed the clan leader, but she also had to find ways to ease her relationship with her youngest daughter, Zhu Zhuqing.

The mother and daughter, together with a dozen experts from the Zhu family, traveled day and night, and in less than seven days they arrived at the kingdom of Kweir, which faces the sea in the south. The body of Zhu Yuan, Marquis of the Underworld, was resting in the kingdom's golden cathedral.

When Zhu Zhuyun and everyone arrived, they saw that the large church was packed with seats. Several priests were chanting sutras and praying beside Zhu Yuan's black coffin. The third sister Zhu Zhuya and the fourth sister Zhu Zhuqing had cried their hearts out.

Duke Kwell, the worshipers and elders of the Netherworld clan, and Prime Minister Sun You of Xingluo were all waiting there.

"master..."

"Father..."

Before seeing the body, Zhu Zhuyun was still lying to himself. It was probably a joke played by Emperor Tianfeng on their family. But when he really saw Zhu Yuan's cold body, Zhu Zhuyun burst into tears.

Ever since she was a child, this man's kindness to her suddenly reappeared, and the picture appeared in front of her like a marquee.

"My condolences, Madam, let's finish the funeral as soon as possible and let the Marquis be buried in peace, right?" Duke Kver advised.

"Emperor Tianfeng has made Zhu Yuan a Duke, and he wants us to bury him as a Duke." Prime Minister Sun You reminded.

"Well...I am a woman..." Before Gu Man could finish speaking, a discordant voice suddenly appeared in the hall, "Yes, bury him as soon as possible. Our Nether Clan has to choose a new leader."

It's a terrible sight and chilling.

Duke Kver and Sun You turned around and glared angrily, and suddenly the church was as silent as death.

Gu Man's psychological quality is very good. She wiped her tears and continued: "I am a woman and don't know much about funeral etiquette. I have to rely on you for help these days..."

"Hey, Mrs. Zhu is too polite..." Duke Kver sighed.

After greeting everyone, Gu Man took Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuhai to change into mourning clothes, and the church immediately became noisy again.

The Nether Clan is getting ready to make another move.
