“Emperor Wu? What Emperor Wu?”
Wei Liulang was stunned for three seconds.
Ghostfear glared at his stinky brother and wanted to beat him up.
Ever since he became a sacrificial soldier, a certain someone’s temper gradually couldn’t be controlled.
After all, the rules of sacrificial soldiers were to do people in.
“The previous dynasty’s Emperor Wu, ” Wei Ting said.
Ghostfear’s violent temper eased a little.
At the mention of the previous dynasty, Wei Liulang remembered.
He was wondering why it was so familiar.
His father’s golden armor was placed in a secret room in the ruins of the previous dynasty to cover the relics of the previous dynasty inside.
That relic was now safeguarded by Seventh Sister-in-law.
As for what was in the box, Su Xuan guessed that it was the jade seal of the previous dynasty.
However, this was only a guess. They would only know if they opened the box.
Unfortunately, up until now, they had tried many methods but could not open the box.
Perhaps their father knew.
But their father’s current memories were chaotic…
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Wei Liulang’s mind.
“Didn’t the royal family of the Southern Wilderness descend from the previous dynasty’s royal family? Why would there be a need for a descendant of Emperor
Wu to revive the country?”
Wei Ting spoke. This time, he deliberately lowered his voice.
Uncle Han said, “It’s different. The royal family of the Southern Wilderness is a side branch of the previous dynasty’s royal family. Only Emperor Wu’s lineage is the direct descendant and has the prestige to command the world.”
Wei Ting continued, “How do you know that Wei Xu is a descendant of Emperor wu?”
Uncle Han shook his head. “I’m not sure about the details. I was following the Saintess’ instructions. She doesn’t need to explain everything to me, and I don’t have the guts to ask. I swear, what I said is true!”
The three brothers exchanged a look.
Wei Ting continued, “You went to Broken Pa.s.s with Cheng Qingxue a while ago.
What did you do?”
Uncle Han was shocked.
The Ji family had actually found out that they had gone to Broken North Pa.s.s?
Wei Liulang threatened, “Tell me quickly! If you don’t, I’ll chop you up!”
Uncle Han trembled. “I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you! Wei Xu suffered internal injuries. We wanted to find the Snow Domain Hemp to treat him.”
Wei Ting gave Sixth Brother a look.
Wei Liulang stabbed the back of his hand.
“Ah!” Uncle Han let out a scream of pain, his face twisting.
“What’s wrong with you?” Ghostfear scolded Wei Liulang in a low voice.
Uncle Han was about to cry. At least there was someone sensible.
Ghostfear said unhappily, “Aren’t you supposed to chop off his finger? If your saber technique isn’t good, get someone else!”
Uncle Han was speechless!

He was really afraid.
He did not dare to hide anything anymore and told him about finding the relics of the previous dynasty.
“What’s that relic?” Wei Ting asked.
Uncle Han cried and said, “I don’t know… I really don’t know… The Saintess only said that it’s related to restoring the country… With him… the ident.i.ty of
Emperor Wu’s descendant can be legitimate…”
If it was a jade seal, this explanation matched.
Wei Ting continued, “Is the revival of the country the ambition of the King of the Southern Wilderness or the Saintess’?”
Uncle Han said with a trembling voice, “The… the King of the Southern
Wilderness… the Saintess of also has a little selfish thought.”
Wei Liulang asked anxiously, “What selfish thought?”
Uncle Han swallowed and braced himself. “She wants… to marry the descendant of Emperor Wu after she abdicates and give birth to the bloodline of the
Emperor’s descendant.”
This shameless woman had indeed taken a fancy to their father!
Not to mention that their biological mother was still around, even if she was not around, it was not her turn to be their stepmother!
The reason why the Saintess did not turn Wei Xu into a eunuch was solved.
The dignified Saintess actually coveted their father.
Their father and the Saintess were more than a generation apart. He already had seven sons. What was the Saintess thinking?
Fortunately, they arrived in time. Otherwise, they would really have a younger brother or sister.
She did not care about ordinary people. She did not even care about the royal family of the Southern Wilderness. If she wanted to marry, she would marry a true descendant of Emperor Wu.
What an ambitious woman.
After coming out of the alley, Wei Ting lowered his voice and teased Ghostfear. “Brother, you’re Father’s eldest son. The Saintess can’t get Father. If she finds out that you’re still alive, she might capture you as her son-in-law.”
Ghostfear muttered, “Why is this guy being even more annoying than Sixth Brother?
“What about that person?” Wei Liulang asked.
His voice was neither loud nor soft, just enough for Uncle Han to hear.
Wei Ting said in a dramatic manner, “The family head didn’t ask us to take his life. It’s better not to complicate matters. Let’s go back and report to the family head.”
Uncle Han gritted his teeth.
Family head…
It was undoubtedly the Ji family.
Just you wait, the Saintess will take revenge!
The three of them returned to their residence.
Li Wan had just finished bathing Dahu and Erhu and was drying their hair when Wei Xiyue fell asleep in Wei Qing’s arms.
“Second Sister-in-law, where’s Xiaohu?” Wei Ting asked.
“In Dad’s room,” Li Wan said. “Dad doesn’t seem to be feeling well.”
Actually, he was already uncomfortable just now. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone back alone after giving Xiaohu to her.
Li Wan was a little worried. “Your second brother said that ever since Dad returned, he has been locked in the room alone and didn’t eat dinner. Xiaohu went in just now.”
“I’ll go take a look!” Wei Liu ang said. Li Wan reminded, “Little Six, be careful!”
Just now, when the a.s.sa.s.sin went to their father, he was slapped by Wei Xu.
Their father’s condition was not right.
Only the children were not attacked by him when they approached him.
Wei Xu was experiencing a very painful withdrawal reaction. It was as if ten thousand ants had crawled into his bones and blood.
He fell into an extremely manic state.
Before he completely lost his mind, a round ball climbed up.
He looked at him cutely. ‘Grandpa, what’s wrong?
His childish voice was like a clear spring that flowed into his sea of consciousness.
A moment of clarity returned to his eyes.
Xiaohu rolled around the bed, b.u.mping into him from time to time or crawling all over him.
He was like a small mountain. Xiaohu climbed over the mountain with a sense of accomplishment.
Wei Xu hugged the little guy.
Xiaohu couldn’t move.
His big black eyes blinked and his eyes darted around. “Is Grandpa going to sleep? Alright.”
Xiaohu wanted to twitch his small arm, but he couldn’t.
Only his small head could move.
He thought for a moment and rubbed his head against Wei Xu’s chest.
“Grandpa, be good. Sleep.”
Wei Xu’s mania was comforted by the little fellow’s head bit by bit.
“Grandpa, be good and sleep.”
Xiaohu coaxed Wei Xu like an adult coaxing him to sleep.
“Grandpa, be good… be good… sleep… hu-” Xiaohu coaxed himself to sleep.
Wei Liulang pushed the door open and entered.
He heard Xiaohu’s even snoring and saw that his father was also asleep.
He walked over quietly, bent down, lifted the thin blanket, and planned to carry Xiaohu out.
Just as he grabbed the little fellow’s shoulder, Wei Xu opened his eyes.
“Dad… Howl—”
Wei Liulang was sent flying again.
Wei Xu rolled the little guy into his arms.
To think Wei Liulang wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h the little packrat from him.. Hmph!
