Three World Swordsman
096: Situation of Wu Chang An City
Xie Jin was pensive after hearing the story about all the things that Lin Hua and Yao Zhi had experienced ever since he left the two of them without saying goodbye a dozen years ago.
Had he been able to turn back the clock, Xie Jie wanted to go back in their time together at the bottom of that abyss. So that Lin Hua would not experience grief like the one he had been in the past ten years.
"Hua'er let go of Zhi'er, you don't continue to grieve like this. Take care of your body health, especially now you no longer have the energy in."
Lin Hua leaned his head against Xie Jie's shoulder. Zhu Yin, who saw this, held the haru in her heart. The closeness of Lin Hua and Xie Jie, made him remember the times when he was with his mother.
"My teacher.I haven't been able to forget all the memories with him...I'm.."
"Hua'er, if it's a meaningful memory then don't forget it, because if humans die, they can only live in the memory of others."
Lin Hua was speechless hearing Xie Jia's words, a smile adorning her lips. The problems of his heart can be solved by some wise words from the Master.
" Hua'er. Where is my granddaughter Chan'er,"
Xie Jie suddenly recalled Yao Chan, in her memory still imagined the cuteness of Yao Chan who with her astonishment often made them laugh.
"Sister Chan's grandmother is going to the palace with Grandpa Gu..Uncle Lin Yung and Uncle Yu Ma."
Zhu Yin choked her breath, as she was about to mention Guo Jin's name, Lin Hua immediately gave the code so as not to mention Guo Jin's name.
Zhu Yin who was indeed the intelligent girl quickly understood that there was something between the two martial world figures.
In her youth, Xie Jia was known as a female swordsman nicknamed the Purple Flower Sword. His ability back then was one level above Guo Jin.
A moment later came the crowd from the front room, Xie Jia along with the others, immediately headed to the living room.
Xie Jia's eyes glared at the white-bearded figure who was also glaring at her.
"Jia 'er..."
Xie Jia smiled faintly to cover up her nervousness. They have not met for a long time. And this unexpected encounter made the two old warriors look awkward.
"Yung Gege, this is my grandmother Xie Jia Master and also the person who saved me and Zhi'er a dozen years ago."
Yu Ma who knew who Xie Jia was immediately giving his respects, as well as Lin Yung. He saluted as well as thanked for his help to Lin Hua.
"Crown prince Wu Jia you.."
Lin Hua's voice was stifled as he recognized the person dressed in warrior clothes behind Yu Ma and Lin Yung.
Lin Yung immediately approached her sister then slowly explained the situation that was going on in the Capital. Lin Yung's explanation made the atmosphere turn a little tense.
Lin Yung also explained that Yao Chan was currently picking up Princess Wu Mei with Yu Lian. They will both stay in this house to ensure their safety.
"Is that how important Wu Chan An is?"
Lin Hua asked her brother. Just as Lin Yung was about to answer Lin Hua's question, Xie Jia first spoke.
"Actually my goal here is in addition to wanting to meet Hua'er, I also want to convey something I accidentally heard while at the inn."
Everyone fell silent with their minds filled with questions after Xie Jia finished her story. Who was the Young Man who turned out to be the mastermind over Emperor Wu's murder.
While Guo Jin was more focused on the two grandfathers who were the bodyguards of the young man. Given his success in assassinating the Emperor and the Prime Minister, Guo Jin guessed that at least the two bodyguards possessed the ability of the Sacred Swordsman.
While Yu Ma and Lin Yung were thinking the same thing, was the situation that was happening in the capital at the moment part of the young man's plan? If the two were related of course this would be a dangerous thing for the Wu Empire.
"Whether the man was about thirty years old and had a body taller than mine."
Wu Jian's voice, the future Emperor Wu, woke those who were engrossed with questions in their minds.
"Rightly I've seen him twice, the young man was about thirty years old. He has a height that is above our average person, even his two bodyguards also have a height that is almost the same as him."
Xie Jia's explanation did not look meaningful to them other than Wu Jian who looked so shocked.
*Song He, crown prince of the Song Empire."
All eyes were now looking towards Wu Jian whose voice sounded trembling as he said that.
Wu Jian was not unaware of the curious gazes from them, only that he was currently weighing whether it was necessary to say something that was a secret known only to him and his late father.
After thinking that only they were the pillars of the current strength of the Wu Empire, Wu Jian finally explained the secret.
A year ago Wu Jian joined Emperor Wu Mao in attending the wedding of Emperor Song Yu's Princess who became the twelfth Emperor of Song. It was then that Wu Jian knew Song He who was the Crown Prince of the Song Empire.
During the dinner, there was tension because Song He made his point to Emperor Wu Mao to propose Princess Wu Mei to be his concubine.
Song He's remarks were very insulting to the pride of Emperor Wu Mao who at that time also left the dinner when he found Emperor Song Yu did not reprimand his son.
Even Emperor Wu Mao left the Song court without saying goodbye because he felt humiliated. This made Emperor Song Yu offended. Then sent a letter to Kaisar Wu apologizing for his attitude.
This problem was only known by Emperor Wu Mao, Wu Jian himself and the late Prime Minister Lin Bao.
"If it is true that the Young Man is Song He and the situation that is happening in the current Capital is his doing, then the situation during the Crown Prince's coronation later, will become very dangerous."
Lin Yung let out her opinion after Crown Prince Wu Jian finished telling a story.
"Do we have to delay this coronation?"
Yu Ma asked who. The situation they were in right now, really made them worry that there was a huge mess that caused a lot of casualties.
"Ma'er I think we should make the Crown Prince's coronation as Emperor, but we still have to do it. I've been thinking about a plan, and we need to discuss it together with Chan"er and Lian'er."
Guo Jin answered Yu Ma's question with a smile. The smile he forced upon the Honor of the Wu Empire.
They waited for Yao Chan and Yu Lian to discuss the matter.The two came a short while later.
