"What's your relationship with that woman named Lin'er?" Lu Nanzhou asked, staring at her face.
"What's the relationship?" Hailan's fingers gently stroked her eyebrows, "Are we alike?"
The eldest daughter of the Hai family was beautiful, charming and pure, and dressed in gorgeous and complicated clothes. The woman named Lin'er was dressed in white, with long hair down to her waist, and her beauty was lively and broken.
They are two completely different styles, and at first glance you wouldn't associate them together. But if you look closely, you'll find that their eyebrows and eyes are actually very similar.
Lu Nanzhou guessed, "Is that Lin'er the daughter of the Hai family?"
Hai Lan held the beautiful gem inlaid on the pendant on her chest. This was something Lin Er had specially found after searching for a long time at sea. She inlaid it on the necklace and gave it to her.
"Her name is Hailin, and she is my twin sister from the same mother."
Mrs. Mei covered her chest and said in disbelief, "How could this be..."
At that time, Mrs. Hai gave birth to a pair of twin girls. The younger girl was born sickly and could not adapt to the climate of the East China Sea, so she was sent away to be raised.
As time passed, people only knew that the eldest daughter of the Hai family was extremely beautiful, but few people knew that the Hai family also had a second daughter.
Luo Sheng said coldly, "So you are seeking revenge for your sister?"
"Shouldn't it be?" Hai Lan said bitterly, "The ship returning to the East China Sea encountered a storm in the sea, and Lin'er disappeared. I finally found out about her, but she had been slaughtered in the Bamboo Sea. How can I not hate her! She is my sister who was born of the same mother and is related by blood!"
For a moment, the room was very quiet and no one spoke.
It can be said that it is a completely ill-fated relationship. Lanling City is the first of the four major cities in the East China Sea. The young city lord Baili Ci is young and promising, handsome and noble.
The seventh daughter of the Luo family fell in love with him, and the two were engaged. But a year ago, Baili Ci rescued a beautiful and fragile woman from the seaside.
The girl was innocent, kind, and beautiful when she smiled. The young city lord, who was tired of the intrigue, fell in love with the girl.
He even proposed to the Luo family to cancel the engagement, which the arrogant Luo Yi naturally couldn't stand. He bribed the people around him and learned about Hai Lin's existence.
In the end, she designed to kill Hai Lin in the bamboo sea. Baili Ci fell out with her because of this incident, but was locked up in Lanling City by the old city lord.
After all, the two families had been married for generations, and their relationship was complicated. She was just a helpless woman, so they killed her. Neither side took it to heart, and felt that the marriage between the two families should not be destroyed for this.
Luo Yi was also sent away by the Luo family because of that incident. They said they were sending her out to relax, but in fact they had someone teach her the rules. After all, she would be the wife of the young city lord if she married there, and her level was not high enough.
This time Luo Sheng went to pick her up in person to take her back to marry Baili Ci. But she died on the boat, which is why he was so angry.
Jiang Xue Ning yawned as she listened to it. It was another tragic love story.
Luo Sheng said coldly, "Anyway, you killed my sister, and this matter is not over yet!"
Hai Lan said fearlessly, "When I made up my mind to take revenge, I had already prepared for the worst."
"That Miss Lin'er, Qingqing once said that she was from Pearl Island." Father Ji said with sparkling eyes, "Oh, Mrs. Hai is also from Pearl Island, no wonder the Hai family is getting better and better."
His face was full of greed, and his long-standing suspicions and speculations about the Hai family were confirmed today.
Hai Lan pointed her sword at him and said, "If you dare to covet Pearl Island, I will kill you!"
"Oh, you want to kill people to silence them. Once the news gets out, the Hai family will be finished." Father Ji said fearlessly, "Everyone wants to have a piece of the huge wealth."
Jiang Xue Ning, who had been silent, stood up and said, "It is rumored that Pearl Island was once the territory of the mermaids. It is surrounded by water and fog all year round. There are countless pearls and night-shining pearls on the island."
"Countless merchants have gone there, but none of them have come out alive."
There is indeed a legend about mermaids there, and now a group of Li clan members live there. They have lived on Pearl Island for hundreds of years. Everyone is good at swimming and beautiful, and they rarely leave the island.
Luo Sheng said sinisterly, "You know a lot. You're not an accomplice, are you?"
Jiang Xuening looked at him with disdain, "I am just a well-read person. I once read about Pearl Island in a book of strange stories."
"Hehe..." Luo Sheng waved his hand, "Catch that person for me."
Jiang Xue Ning said coldly, "Don't touch her!"
"What does King Xiang mean by this?"
Jiang Xue Ning said in a deep voice, "General Ming Xi was once one of the leaders of the Phoenix Army. He was extremely intelligent and resourceful. He led the Phoenix Army to success wherever it went.
In the Battle of Heisei Pass, General Mingxi led 50,000 Phoenix troops to fight to the last moment, but was eventually killed by eight sword strikes. "
"What does this have to do with me? This young master doesn't have time to listen to the past of your Phoenix Army." Jun Sheng said unhappily.
Jiang Xuening looked at him sharply, and said word by word, "General Mingxi's real name is Li Zhi."
"That's my aunt!" Hai Lan said in disbelief.
The Li clan rarely left the island, but that didn’t mean they were not allowed to leave. Hailan remembered her mother telling her that her aunt had been very naughty since she was a child. Later, she secretly left the island and her whereabouts are still unknown.
Jiang Xue Ning had never thought that there was such a connection. It was a pity that the revelation was a little late, otherwise she would have helped her conceal it for Li Zhizi's sake.
She sighed, "Mingxi once said that she would go home when Xiling was at peace, but unfortunately she never lived to see that day."
Things were getting complicated. Luo Sheng said solemnly, "So, you have to get involved now."
"General Mingxi has lived up to the people of Xiling, the Phoenix Army, and King Xiangchu. I will certainly not let her down." She looked indifferent, but very determined.
"This is the East China Sea, and we are about to reach Tianshui City." Luo Sheng reminded her.
"So what?" Jiang Xue Ning said coldly, "Who dares to touch a hair on my head?"
It’s just that they are far away. Xiangchu is not dead, and so many soldiers are not gone.
If she really died in Tianshui City, Tianshui City would not be in good condition.
Luo Sheng said angrily, "Nosy woman! Anyway, the people of my Luo family cannot die in vain like this. This matter is not over yet."
Although it was not over yet, he was indeed in a dilemma for a while. He was arrogant, but he was aware of the weight of a prince who commanded hundreds of thousands of troops, so he did not dare to do anything too extreme.
Seeing that the situation was at a stalemate, Lu Nanzhou said, "This is about Miss Seven, and the city lord needs to make a decision on this matter."
Finally, someone was left to guard Hai Lan and the others and put them under house arrest, not allowing them to leave the room without permission.
No matter how unwilling the other two families were, they also temporarily followed Luo Sheng and left.
Hai Lan said worriedly, "Once the news about the Hai family and Pearl Island spreads, I'm afraid the Hai family will never have peace again."
She looked at Jiang Xue Ning again and said, "If mother knew that my aunt had passed away, she would be very sad."
Jiang Xue Ning didn't say anything to comfort him, but said, "Since things have come to this, let's muddy the waters."
