Chapter 130 The Ning Family's Secret

The letter was written by an old monk in gray clothes who had passed away. He was Ning Youbei's grandfather.

31 years ago, Ning Youbei's grandfather got a strange disease, Ning Youbei's father took the opportunity to control him with Gu poison.In desperation, Ning Youbei's father was appointed as the prince. Originally, he wanted to establish the old Jiangcheng king.

In order to protect the old Jiangcheng King, he drove him to the fief Jiangcheng before the first emperor ascended the throne, and handed over the power of the Dragon Guards to him.

The reason why he wanted to make the old Jiangcheng king the prince was because of the rules left by the founding emperor of the Dayu Kingdom and the ancestors of the Ning family.

The founding emperor of the Dayu Kingdom once had a deal with immortals:

Immortals branded the founding emperor's blood, and whoever wears this brand in the future will be the Son of Destiny.If the throne of the Ning family can always be inherited by the Son of Destiny, the Dayu Kingdom will never fall.

Therefore, the founding emperor of the Dayu Kingdom established a rule: the throne can only be passed on to the Ning family's children with brand marks on their bodies.

In order to protect the children of the Ning family with the brand mark on their bodies, the previous emperor personally informed the next emperor of this rule, and the Dragon Guards could only be handed over to the children of the Ning family with the brand mark on their bodies.

The old Jiangcheng King had such a brand mark on his body, and King Jing also had such a brand mark on his body, but neither Ning Youbei's father nor the current emperor had it.

Therefore, even if Ning Youbei's father became the emperor, he would not know that such rules existed in the Ning family, let alone the current emperor.

But Ning Youbei's grandfather told the old Jiangcheng King about the ancestor's rule, and handed over the Dragon Guard to him.

And this brand mark is the strange beast pattern on the leftover jade tablet.

The letter ends with:
I used to firmly believe in the rules set by my ancestors, but in the past 30 years, the two emperors after me have done well, no worse than when I was in power.So I thought: Dayu Kingdom has been around for nearly a hundred years, even if there was a blood brand before, it might not be so accurate after so many years.

There is no need to be obsessed with this rule in the future, the emperor can choose between those who are virtuous and capable.

……

After reading the letter, Ning Youbei stretched out his hand to get the jade plaque, and Qu Chu also stretched out his head to look at the jade plaque curiously.

At a glance, both of them were stunned.

It was precisely because both of them were stunned that they didn't notice the difference in each other's expressions.

The reason why Ning Youbei was stunned was because he also had such a pattern on his body.

Qu Chu was stunned because the totem on the waist of the man who raped her was exactly this pattern.

The old emperor's letter said that the old Jiangcheng King and King Jing had such patterns on their bodies, and it was King Jing that they saw when they lifted their masks. Did it mean: the person who raped her back then was King Jing?

……

Ning Youbei was stunned for a while before recovering. He asked Master Zhizhi, "When did grandfather come to Lingshan Temple?"

Smart Master said:
"29 years ago, the Supreme Emperor died of illness. In fact, he did not really die of illness, but left the palace under the pretext of dying of illness.

After the Supreme Emperor left the palace, he brought his old monk and a group of dragon guards to Lingshan Temple. It took nearly ten years to detoxify his body from the poison and cured the strange disease on his body.

Later, the Supreme Emperor became a monk at Lingshan Temple, and Lao Na accompanied him to become a monk. "

"Are you the commander of the Dragon Guard?"

"I am not the leader of the Dragon Guards. The Supreme Emperor handed over the Dragon Guards to the Queen of Xianjiang City, leaving only [-] people to serve. I am the leader of these [-] people."

"When did grandfather die?"

"The supreme emperor was recoiled yesterday after seeing the prince of Zhen Guogong."

Ning Youbei remained silent.

Only those who have practiced to a certain level can sit down and die, and ordinary people cannot do it.Although my grandfather failed to give birth to relics, it is a blessing to have reached a certain level of practice.

His grandfather had already passed away when Ning Youbei was born, and he had never met his grandfather, so besides being complicated, his mood at this time was not too sad.

It's just that Brother Huang and he didn't know the news that grandfather was alive, but Sui Lijing did.

In other words: King Jing knows.

It seems that the grandfather still believed in the rules of the old ancestor, otherwise King Jing would not have known of the existence of the grandfather, and he and the emperor brother had been kept in the dark.

However, if the anecdote of the Ning Family's Man of Destiny is really credible, then there should only be one person in each generation who will have the brand mark on his body. Why would King Jing and him have it?

If my grandfather knew that he also had such a brand mark on his body, how would he feel about it?
……

Before leaving Lingshan Temple, Ning Youbei asked about the current situation of the Long Guard, but Master Zhizhi didn't know about it.

Not only does he not know who the leader of the Dragon Guard is, he doesn't even know whose hands the Dragon Guard is in now.

But Master Zhizhi told Ning Youbei that Sui Lijing came to see the Supreme Emperor because of the poisoning of King Jing, and the Supreme Emperor gave Sui Lijing a token and asked him to take this token to meet the owner of Mantuo Villa.

……

Not only did he know the news he wanted to know before, but he also accidentally learned a big secret, but Ning Youbei was not surprised.

He left Lingshan Temple worried.

On the way back, Ning Youbei was silent, and Qu Chu was also silent.

It was not until returning to the coffin shop that Ning Youbei asked Qu Chu:
"Achu, grandfather said that the Dragon Guards were handed over to the old Jiangcheng king. Who do you think the old Jiangcheng king handed over to?"

King Jiangcheng is the son of the old King Jiangcheng, but he does not have a brand mark on his body; King Jing has a brand mark on his body. According to the rules set by the ancestors of the Ning family, the Dragon Guard should be handed over to him.

However, would the Old Jiangcheng King be willing to hand over the Dragon Guard to King Jing?

Qu Chu shook his head to express his ignorance.

It was only then that Ning Youbei noticed Qu Chu's abnormality.

I was uneasy because I knew a big secret, and I was worried that my brother would be suspicious of me after knowing it, so what about Ah Chu?
She's not the kind of person who feels uneasy knowing such a secret, so is she?

Thinking of something suddenly, Ning Youbei froze.

If it was Ah Chu who detoxified her from the blood mango flower back then, then she must have seen the totem on her lower back. At that time, she was still wearing the mask of King Jing. Ah Chu would not be the one who misunderstood her. Is it King Jing?
Thinking of this, Ning Youbei was in a bad mood, and the uneasiness brought about by knowing this secret instantly disappeared.

"Achu, have you seen the pattern of this brand logo?"

Qu Chu looked at Ning Youbei, "Why do you ask that?"

"I think you lost your mind after seeing the pattern, so I asked you."

Qu Chu glanced at Ning Youbei, but was not fooled by him.

"It's true that you don't belong to your own mind, how can you perceive my emotions?"

Although Qu Chu was indeed taken aback after seeing the pattern, and thought of something in his mind, but it was far from being out of control.

She just didn't bother to speak when she saw that Ning Youbei was silent.

"Then have you seen it?"

"never seen it."

Qu Chu answered crisply.
