However, just based on the small piece of totem on his neck, Jun Xiaomo still couldn't be sure that this was the son of senior Jiang Yutong.
She frowned slightly, thought about it, and decided to ask first.
"Sorry to bother you, I want to ask you a question, Commander." Jun Xiaomo looked directly at the Commander and said.
"Speaking."
"Is this eldest prince's mother-in-law... the princess Jiang Yutong from your Lieyan Kingdom who disappeared several years ago?" Jun Xiaomo carefully studied the commander's expression, not letting go of any subtle clues.
"Do you know Princess Jiang?!" The commander's eyes widened and he looked at Jun Xiaomo in surprise.
Jun Xiaomo waved his hand with a smile and said: "It's not really acquaintance, just a little bit of hearing. The deeds of Princess Jiang back then were also very sensational in the world of cultivation, and my father would occasionally mention her."
The commander twisted his eyebrows, pondered for a moment, sighed, nodded and said: "The eldest prince is indeed the son of Princess Jiang. Perhaps, it is because his father killed everyone in his mother's family, He also forced his mother and concubine away, so he couldn't let go of it for so many years, and finally committed the crime of patricide."
Jun Xiaomo's eyes flickered and he looked at the picture again -
On the scroll, a man with deep features and deep eyes is "looking" at the people outside the scroll with a playful smile, as if everything in the world is a game to him, and nothing will leave much in his heart. The traces are the same.
It's really hard to imagine that such a person would go to all the trouble to poison his father because of an old grudge. I'm afraid, in his view, even poisoning others is a very troublesome thing.
Jun Xiaomo thought about it silently in his heart for a moment, and intuitively realized that this matter might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Others in the Xuyang Sect were also listening to the leader's statement without saying a word. However, compared with Jun Xiaomo, they did not care what kind of person the "eldest prince" was. They only cared about one thing: Can they use these clues to catch the bounty target
"Oh, by the way, one more thing. After you enter the capital of Lieyan Kingdom, you must not mention the words 'Princess Jiang' or 'Jiang Yutong' in public. It will cause a lot of trouble. ." The commander warned seriously.
"Oh? Why is this?" Jun Xiaomo asked curiously.
The commander sighed: "Five years since Concubine Jiang disappeared, her name and title have been listed as taboos in the Lieyan Kingdom by the king. Anyone who talks about Concubine Jiang in public will be punished by She was sentenced to exile in a remote place and was not allowed to return to the capital for the rest of her life. In severe cases, her tongue was pulled out, her home was ransacked, her fingers were cut into pieces, and her bones were chopped into pieces. People were panicked for a while, and within a few years, no one mentioned Princess Jiang anymore."
In fact, when the current head of the country just came to the throne, almost everyone was well aware of the fact that Concubine Jiang's family "squandered the birds, hid the good bows, and killed the donkeys." Perhaps, because of this, the king of the country explicitly prohibited Lie Yan from mentioning the three words "Jiang Yutong" in the country, in order to cover up his guilty conscience.
The commander also understands this, but after all, he is a general of an army and is only responsible for leading troops to fight. He has no control over or the indignity of the royal family.
After listening to the commander's statement, everyone looked at each other and felt that the leader of the Lieyan Kingdom was a little too cruel.
Jun Xiaomo and Ye Xiuwen knew more about the inside story, and their impression of the country leader was even worse.
Why didn't you poison him to death? Jun Xiaomo gritted his teeth in his heart and complained silently that he really didn't like the current leader of Lieyan Kingdom at all, and even felt that it was a sin for him to live.
At the same time, a subtle sympathy arose for the eldest prince in the portrait. Although, judging from the appearance of this man, I am afraid he does not need sympathy from others, because his mind is strong enough.
You must know that it is difficult for a prince whose mother's family was slaughtered to survive the strife in the palace. But not only did he survive, he also seemed to have developed good skills. He alone could kill Liege. The Yan Kingdom was turned upside down, which was something Jun Xiaomo admired very much.
Now that it has been confirmed that he is the owner of the blood jade and the son of senior Jiang Yutong, she cannot watch the other person in jail. At least, she must take this opportunity to hand over the blood jade to the other party. Moreover, if the other party If her character was okay, she would still find a way to get the other person out of this situation. This was a choice she made in order to repay the precious resources left by senior Jiang Yutong.
"Okay, that's all the information I can provide. I wonder if all the experts are interested in taking on this task?" The commander bowed to everyone and asked.
Qin Lingyu's eyes flashed and he asked, "I wonder if the commander can tell you a little bit about what kind of rewards we can get if we complete the mission?"
"The specifics have to be decided by the head of the country, but elixirs such as Snow Lotus Rejuvenation Pill, Fusion Spirit Pill, Qingxin Pill are definitely indispensable. Lieyan Kingdom also has several national treasures. The second prince and the Queen Mother have spoken. , if anyone can capture the eldest prince and bring him to justice, then he can choose two of these national treasures and offer them together with both hands."
The treasure of the country? ! Qin Lingyu's eyes flashed with greed. If the previous elixirs only made him want to move, then the words "treasure of the country" obviously made him make the final decision.
"What do you think?" Qin Lingyu asked the Xuyang Sect disciples around him.
Even if he has made a decision in his heart, he still has to put on a proper posture. At least, he has to make himself appear fair and just.
"I don't have much opinion, it all depends on Senior Brother Qin." The disciple closest to Qin Lingyu said hurriedly to express his loyalty.
Others also smiled flatteringly and said, "Yes, it all depends on Senior Brother Qin."
Ke Xinwen and Yi Hong didn't speak. After all, they were just following Ye Xiuwen.
Qin Lingyu found that Ye Xiuwen had been staying silently aside without speaking, so he asked in a pretentious manner: "Senior Brother Ye, what do you think?"
Ye Xiuwen looked directly at Jun Xiaomo, because he also heard that the eldest prince was Jiang Yutong's son and the owner of the blood jade. He felt that "Yao Mo" would probably want to stay here for a while until he found The owner of blood jade.
Jun Xiaomo blinked at Ye Xiuwen, licked the corners of his lips and said, "The reward is really quite a lot. A person like me who has no desires and desires will inevitably be tempted. Brother Ye, let's stay and help, okay? good?"
Everyone: "..." What do you call "no desire and no desire"? He obviously looks like a money-grubbing villain.
Ye Xiuwen discovered that this little guy "Yao Mo" was really more and more fond of using words and actions to deceive others, but this was good, as it could conceal their true purpose - I'm afraid everyone here thought they were staying because of the rewards. Did you come down? Who would have thought that what they really want to do is to help the owner of the blood jade escape from the predicament
So, Ye Xiuwen patted Jun Xiaomo on the head and said, "Okay, then we'll stay."
Qin Lingyu sneered silently in his heart: Don't risk your life if you don't get the reward at the end.
Jun Xiaomo saw the calculation in Qin Lingyu's eyes. She felt that this nominal "fiancé" really liked to toss, as if he would get itchy if he didn't scheme against others.
Forget it, why bother with this kind of person? Sooner or later, he will fall hard!
Qin Lingyu said to the leader of Lieyan Kingdom: "Since everyone else has no objections, let's stay and give it a try."
The commander laughed, showing a bit of heartiness, and said: "That's good. If there are any new clues in the future, I will inform the experts present in time. By the way, I heard that this is your first time here. Lie Yan Country, then I will be a host and treat you to a meal of Lie Yan Country’s authentic dishes. I just hope you won’t dislike the food in our mortal world being too ordinary.”
"No, we are all traveling in the sect, and we don't have to pay so much attention. Since the commander is so enthusiastic, then we should be respectful rather than obey his orders." Qin Lingyu smiled back and said politely.
The leader of Lieyan Kingdom led everyone to the largest restaurant in Xingping Town and said to the owner of the restaurant, "I want a private room."
"Ah, sir, I'm sorry. There are so many people coming and going in Xingping Town these days. The private rooms are already full. Is the lobby okay?" The boss saw that the status of this group of people was not low, so he Can say with a smile.
The commander frowned. It didn't seem to be in line with etiquette for the distinguished guests to sit in a hall where there were many people coming and going.
"Commander, let's just go to the lobby. Anyway, it's just a meal, and we don't have to pay that much attention. What's more, isn't the flavor of the food more important?" Qin Lingyu, when he doesn't care about others, still has to be a person of sophistication. It was very good, he took the initiative to find a step for the commander.
"Haha, Brother Qin is right, I was wrong." The commander said, and asked the boss to clean up a big table, and they all sat down around it.
After sitting down, the food could not be served for a while, so everyone started chatting.
"Hey, having said that, the commander-in-chief has been looking for your eldest prince for a long time. Is it true that there are no clues at all? With this picture, it is still very difficult to find him."
"It is indeed difficult to find. However, a few days ago, I heard from spies that the eldest prince had appeared in Xingping Town, so we all rushed over. In fact, it may not be difficult to find the eldest prince. There are a few places that are special. It is possible that Xingping Town is one of them. However, even if we find him, we will not be able to deal with the eldest prince. For example, those spies were knocked unconscious after being discovered by the eldest prince."
"That's it." The disciples of Xuyang Sect nodded to express their understanding.
While Jun Xiaomo was secretly paying attention to their conversation, he released his spiritual consciousness to check the situation of the blood jade in the storage ring.
Senior Jiang Yutong said that as long as her son appears near the blood jade, the blood jade will glow red. Therefore, after knowing that the eldest prince was likely to be in Xingping Town, Jun Xiaomo decided to observe the condition of the blood jade from time to time. .
Wait a moment! It seemed to light up just now! Jun Xiaomo's heart thumped and he suddenly stood up.
Everyone was confused by Jun Xiaomo's move and didn't know what this "Yao Mo" wanted to do.
Jun Xiaomo didn't have time to explain to them. The blood jade flashed for a moment and then fell silent. This could only mean that the eldest prince passed by them at an extremely fast speed, most likely passing by the inn in an instant.
Jun Xiaomo chased after him reflexively, leaving everyone looking at each other in shock.
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, like the sound of something colliding.
"Xiao Mo!" Ye Xiuwen also stood up and ran out quickly. What caught his eyes was the scene of "Yao Mo" being held in the arms of a man in light blue clothes. Behind the man stood With a large group of followers.
Ye Xiuwen's eyes were sharp, and a bit of worry flashed in his heart. He even thought about raising his sword to slash at the arm lying across "Yao Mo's" waist.
"Little brother, be careful when you walk." The man smiled frivolously and looked at "Yao Mo" in his arms with a pair of peach blossom eyes without saying a word.
Ye Xiuwen was about to quickly go over and pull "Yao Mo" out. Unexpectedly, "Yao Mo" who seemed to be "dumbly" staying in the man's arms suddenly became serious and took out a bag from the storage ring. He stabbed the man fiercely with a sharp knife!
There is simply a feeling of never ending.
Jun Xiaomo's attacks are very methodical, and she is already at the second level of Qi training. Logically speaking, it is more than enough to deal with ordinary people. But when the man opened the folding fan with a "snap" and dodged very easily, it showed that he was probably also a cultivator.
"Xiao Mo!"
"Second Prince!"
The voices of Ye Xiuwen and the commander of Lieyan Kingdom sounded one after another, and Jun Xiaomo and the man stopped attacking and dodging at the same time.
"So your name is 'Xiao Mo'?"
"So you are the second prince of Lieyan Kingdom?!"
The voices of the man and Jun Xiaomo also rang out in unison, after listening to Jun Xiaomo's question. The man smiled and said, "Yes, does Xiaomo know me too?"
The man's language was very frivolous, and he was obviously teasing Jun Xiaomo, even though Jun Xiaomo was now a "teenager".
Jun Xiaomo raised the corners of his lips with a cold look in his eyes, but said nothing—
Of course she knew this man, although she never knew that this man was the second prince of Lieyan Kingdom.
No, she should know that this man eventually became the leader of Lieyan Kingdom and one of Yu Wanrou's concubines.
Even more so... one of the murderers of her child in her previous life!
Jun Xiaomo's chest surged with energy and blood, and he almost couldn't hide the hatred in his heart!
