Chapter 389 - Chapter 389 - True or falseHe wasn"t sure if this dragon and tiger stripes were real or fake. After all, only the people from the underworld clans would be able to tell. That was why the underworld clans were needed to help open the treasure.
"Fake?" Wei Yuanwei"s heart had really dropped from the clouds to the wild, and from there to h.e.l.l.
"I"m not sure, but I feel that it"s fake. The Dragon and Tiger Jade Tattoo Pendant shouldn"t be broken that easily, and I just saw the quality of this jade, but …" However, it was not of the highest quality! Mu Jin voiced out her thoughts.
They only knew the rumours in the martial arts world about the pattern of the Dragon and Tiger pattern on the jade pendant, but only the people from the underworld clans knew the true appearance of the Dragon and Tiger pattern on the jade pendant.
This was one of the reasons why the people from the Heavenly Fiend Pavilion and other organizations were doing everything they could to find the children of the hidden families.
"Wei Guanshu talked about the origins of the Dragon and Tiger pattern jade pendant?" Wei Yuanwei thought for a while before asking.
"I think it was Yun Xie who gave it to her! As for where Yun Xie came from, I don"t know! "
"Yun Xie? How could Yun Xie have such a Dragon and Tiger Seal Jade? " He thought that it would be his father who left it for her mother, and then pa.s.sed it to Wei Guanshu: "Did Wei Guanshu tell you this?"
"I didn"t ask, but it"s very likely that it was Yun Xie who gave it to me!" Mu Jin said carefully.
If he had asked, wouldn"t it mean that he had the intention to have Wei Guanshu stay?
"Perhaps my biological father was a member of the underworld clan. Father gave the Dragon and Tiger pattern jade pendant to my mother, and it ended up in Wei Guanshu"s hands." Wei Yuanwei made a rough guess.
Honestly speaking, the real Yun Xie was only a popinjay in her heart, he thought that it was impossible to get his hands on the Dragon and Tiger pattern jade pendant, regardless of whether it was in the Imperial Family or the martial arts world, countless people were more talented than the real Yun Xie, even if they were in line.
Mu Jin looked deeply at Wei Yuanwei, as if something was hidden in his eyes. In the end, he muttered in a low voice, "Iris, your biological father isn"t from an underworld clan …"
"What did you say?" Wei Yuanwei almost believed that her biological father was a member of the underworld clan, yet Mu Jin told her at this moment that her father wasn"t a member of the underworld clan.
Su Yun then said: "Could it be that it was because of my illusion earlier that you said that?"
In the illusion world, she had constructed Yun Xie into an unbearable state, and Mu Jin, who had entered her illusion realm, had also seen everything clearly.
"Ever since you married into the palace, I have been sending people to find your father. At first, I thought it was him, but then more and more evidence has shown that your father is not from a hidden family, and your mother was famous before she was born. Naturally, many people came to ask for your hand in marriage, including those from the four kingdoms …"
Mu Jin didn"t finish her sentence. Instead, she frowned harder.
"Then do you know who my biological father is?" Just by looking at the earrings his father had left for his mother, Wei Yuanwei knew that his father couldn"t be some n.o.ble and n.o.ble official, and might even be a poor scholar.
Mu Jin shook her head, "I"m still looking!"
If my own father was still alive, then even if he had my mother in his heart, she wouldn"t be held responsible for his entire life, and even more so, I wouldn"t be held responsible for the name of that b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Wei Yuanwei"s gaze was abnormally firm. She had only heard that her parents would look for their own children, so where would their children come to look for their parents?
Her father wasn"t willing to come back to find her mother, so why would she go back to look for her father?
Mu Jin looked at Wei Yuanwei deeply, "If we were to find your biological father, you don"t have to bear such a crime anymore!"
Mu Jin softly spat out those words. It was because he didn"t want Wei Yuanwei to bear the notoriety of being a b.a.s.t.a.r.d that he tried to find a way to help Wei Yuanwei find her biological father.
Wei Yuanwei knew what Mu Jin was thinking, but she didn"t care about someone who was about to die.
"Your Highness, after I leave you, I will naturally live in seclusion, and in the future, no one will know who I am or what I"ve called. So, Your Highness, don"t worry, I"m a little tired, so Your Highness should go back and rest early!" After Wei Yuanwei finished, he gave a light yawn.
Wei Yuanwei had already ordered for Mu Jin to leave, even if he wanted to stay with Wei Yuanwei for a while longer.
Mu Jin could only nod and stand up, "Then, rest early!"
"En!" Wei Yuanwei made a sound of acknowledgement before she crawled into the blanket.
Seeing this, Mu Jin sighed and walked out.
Were they really going to have a marriage like this? Did she care so much about his past?
The moment Mu Jin closed the door softly, Wei Yuanwei finally opened her eyes.
Mu Jin, thank you for your concern, but I no longer have the ability to stand by your side and fight alongside you.
The only thing I can do now is to get you away from me.
The night was thicker than ink. At this time, countless people in the Mo City had turned out the lights and entered into sleep. Only a solitary lamp was still lit in the Duke Palace"s study.
Tang Qing sent the information he had gathered over to the prince"s mansion. At this time, he had been waiting in the study room for a long time.
"Your Highness, I have been following your instructions to manage the matters of the village and have unintentionally obtained some important information regarding the Xiling"s Crown Prince." With that, Tang Qing pa.s.sed the letter in his hand to Mu Jin.
Mu Jin opened the letter and his slightly dyed eyebrows turned as black as ink. His guess was right.
Zhong Lixian had suspected him before, but how could he not?
Now that he had solid evidence, even if Zhong Lixian wanted to reveal his ident.i.ty, he would have to carefully consider it, no?
This was also better. Compared to threatening Zhong Lixian, this was even simpler than taking Zhong Lixian"s life.
"It has been hard on you. Now that this king has returned, go to the barracks and mix with Tang Yu back to the village!" Mu Jin folded the letter and gripped it tightly. With a heavy gaze, she looked at Tang Qing, "Do not let anyone discover your ident.i.ties and tracks!"
"This subordinate understands!" With that, Tang Qing quickly left the study and disappeared into the darkness.
"Xuan Li, is the death warrior that a.s.sa.s.sinated Zhong Lixian ready yet?"
"Your Highness, everything is ready!" Xuan Li walked in and answered.
Mu Jin looked at the candlelight on the table and his gaze turned pitch-black. "Have them secretly infiltrate Southern Yue and await orders!"
He had originally wanted to threaten Zhong Lixian with Zhong Lixian"s secret when Zhong Lixian came to the Mo City, but at that time, he didn"t have any conclusive evidence, so if he wasn"t able to threaten Zhong Lixian, then he must have let his sword go offensively, and let the Death Soldier who was lying in ambush to kill Zhong Lixian.
