Chapter 321: Leader of the Hidden Family
The moonlight is nice.
When Meng Niang was holding Niang Rong's little hand and passing by Cheng Jiao and Zi Nu's house, they heard clearly audible erotic music.
He couldn't help but quicken his pace, catching Niangrong off guard.
"What's wrong? There was a noise in there just now. Is it Cheng Jiao and that woman in purple doing those things? Don't you want to go in and try together..."
Meng Niang shouted in a low voice: "That's enough, if you keep saying that I'll send you to jail!"
Niangrong immediately quieted down and stopped chattering, urging Mengniang to go over so that she would have a chance to slip away.
If something goes wrong, her only support from Cheng Jiao will be gone.
People have to bow their heads under the roof.
Niangrong felt it was not easy for her to understand such a profound truth at such a young age.
……
The next day, the sky was bright and the sun was already high in the sky.
After putting on his clothes, Cheng Jiao walked out of Zi Nu's room alone.
I was too busy last night because of the addition of Yingge.
As a result, Zi Nu and Ying Ge had to continue lying in bed to rest.
By the way, I refined Cheng Jiao's spiritual power last night and gave it to them.
"You're finally out."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Jiao couldn't help laughing when he saw Wei Zhuang's left arm wrapped in a bandage and hanging around his neck.
It would be perfect if I could add two more rabbit ears.
"Brother Wei Zhuang, do you need me to treat you?"
Wei Zhuang snorted coldly: "I'm not hurt!"
Cheng Jiao shrugged. Indeed, to his second uncle, apart from being stabbed in the back by Gai Nie, everything else was nothing.
"Are you waiting for me?"
Wei Zhuang said solemnly: "That's right."
"What happened?"
"That day, after I was severely injured by Ji Wuye and Xue Yi Hou, I discovered a secret."
"Didn't you tell Zi Nu?"
"No."
"What secret?"
"Zi Nu's life story."
Cheng Jiao was a little confused: "Zi Nu's background? She is not..."
Wei Zhuang said in a deep voice: "That's true, but not entirely true. Her mother didn't tell her the whole truth."
Cheng Jiao pondered and said, "Why didn't you tell Zi Nu, but told me instead?"
Zi Nu had told him before that her mother was a noble from Wei State who was exiled to Korea, and her father was a hostage sent by Wei State to Korea.
Is there some secret here?
Wei Zhuang's eyes were cold and stern: "Only you can help her."
Cheng Jiao said slowly: "Tell me about it."
Although my second uncle was a little reckless, he never joked. Maybe there really was something he didn't know.
"Not long after you left Xinzheng, the Straw Clothes Man secretly controlled many Korean nobles and wanted to encroach on the Night. It was not until half a month ago that this move was exposed, and the Blood Clothes Marquis and Ji Wuye began to work together to suppress the Straw Clothes Man. However, a group of mysterious people appeared, and each of them was a good player above the second-rate master. It was not until I received the information from Tang Qi yesterday that I learned that this group of mysterious people were masters from the Yin family."
Cheng Jiao whispered: "The Yin family? The Yin family again."
"Have you ever been in contact with it?"
"That's right. When I was in Xianyang, I was assassinated by the Yin family. There was one top master and three or four first-rate masters. It can be seen that the Yin family is quite powerful." Wei Zhuang said: "The Yin family is mostly composed of wandering nobles from the ruined country. It is not surprising that they have such power. Do you know why the Yin family appeared in Xinzheng?"
Cheng Jiao asked, "Didn't the Raincoat Man want to join forces with the Hidden Family to control the Night?"
Wei Zhuang said: "This is only one of the reasons. The second one is related to Zi Nu. I also heard it from Ji Wuye and Xue Yi Hou accidentally. Because of this, I was discovered by Ji Wuye and Xue Yi Hou and a fight broke out."
Cheng Jiao asked, "Are you trying to say that Zi Nu is related to the Yin family?"
Wei Zhuang couldn't help but tighten his grip on Sharktooth's scabbard: "Do you know who the leader of the Yin Family is?"
Cheng Jiao dodged many people but ruled them out one by one. In the original book, he had never heard of the Yin family, one of the Hundred Schools of Thought.
"Who is it? Where is the Yin family?"
Wei Zhuang's eyes were sharp: "He is a descendant of the former Zhou royal family."
Cheng Jiao was both unexpected and felt very reasonable.
After all, King Nan of Zhou was dead, and the Zhou Dynasty disappeared into history under the manipulation of King Zhuangxiang.
If we were to ask who should be the leader of the Yin Clan, a group of wandering nobles whose families and countries were destroyed, there would be no one more suitable than the descendants of the Zhou royal family.
Wait, could it be...
Cheng Jiao recalled that some netizens in his previous life had analyzed and speculated that Zi Nu might be a descendant of the Zhou royal family, the daughter of the Zhou emperor, a princess.
The last kings of the Zhou Dynasty were based in Luoyi, not far from Xinzheng, Han State, so it was normal for royal descendants to flee to Xinzheng.
"Are you trying to say that Zi Nu is related to the Zhou royal family?"
Wei Zhuang said in a low voice: "If I am not mistaken, Zi Nu's mother was one of the daughters of the Zhou Emperor, and Zi Nu..."
Cheng Jiao sorted out his thoughts. The timeline was a little wrong. When King Nan of Zhou died, Zi Nu was already living with her mother in Xinzheng, unless Zi Nu's mother had left Luoyi before Luoyi was destroyed.
Perhaps the Zhou royal family left a backup plan to avoid being exterminated and ensure the continuation of their bloodline. This kind of thing also happened in the Qin royal family, some of them were in Xianyang, some in Yongcheng, some in Zhao, and some in other countries, living incognito.
Cheng Jiao frowned and asked, "So, what does the Yin family want to do with Zi Nu?"
Wei Zhuang said: "According to the fragments of information from Ji Wuye and Xueyi Hou, the leader of the Yin family seems to have died. Before he died, he said that before the fall of the Zhou Dynasty, there was a lineage in Han, and its descendants could be found to succeed the position of leader of the Yin family."
Cheng Jiao said: "The leader of the Yin family is dead, why not choose someone from the Yin family to continue to serve as the leader?"
Wei Zhuang sneered and said, "They only recognize bloodline, which is also the cornerstone that has allowed the Yin family to survive until now."
Good fellow, he is still playing with the theory of bloodline, and he is almost saying that only kings, princes, generals and ministers are born with blood.
"How did they find Zi Nu?"
"The man in the straw raincoat should be from the Yin family. Since he was preparing to devour Night Curtain, he has attracted many people from the Yin family. It should be that someone among them discovered Zi Nu."
"How did you discover it? How did you confirm it?"
"From the casual conversation between Ji Wuye and Xueyi Hou, it seems that Zi Nu is very similar to the deceased leader of the Yin Family. Now Ji Wuye and Xueyi Hou are helping the Yin Family investigate what happened back then. The condition is that the Yin Family must not intervene again."
Cheng Jiao took a deep breath. Wow, this is quite a complicated matter.
"Isn't it a good thing for Liusha that Zi Nu can become the leader of the Yin Family? Brother Wei Zhuang."
Wei Zhuang said calmly: "The leader of the Yin family is, after all, just a mascot, serving as the bond of the Yin family's existence. Zi Nu is me after all... She is not suitable and will be in danger."
"How do you want me to help Zi Nu?"
"Stop the Yin family from joining forces with Nightmare."
Cheng Jiao gently waved a folding fan in his hand.
Needless to say, after Zi Nu knew about this, she would definitely not become the leader of this so-called Yin family.
Then there will inevitably be a conflict with the Yin Family. Now Ji Wuye and Xueyi Hou will definitely help the Yin Family in order to prevent the Straw-Cloak Guest from succeeding, and by the way, they can also strike at the current Quicksand.
You know, Zi Nu is in charge of Liusha's intelligence network. Once Zi Nu leaves, Liusha will be no different from a blind man in a short period of time.
