C10 A glimmer of hope

My husband, Di Ming, had forcefully tainted my body. My husband, Di Ming, had died because of hatred, so I did not dare to reveal my influence, but hearing that you have killed Di Ming, I have specially come to thank you that this was an egg laid by an old hen in my house, and it was still warm. Young master, please accept it.

"This little girl is Southern City's Wutong Lane's Liu Family Wife, and she has also been tainted by Di Ming. My husband was beaten to death by him, and these two years, this little girl has been washing her face with tears. The Young Master has avenged me, and this little girl is willing to repay you for your kindness. "

"My humble concubine was in Green Willow Lane, weaving at home that day. Only after being insulted by a passing young master did my humble concubine find out that that person was Young Master Di Family, my lowly concubine couldn't afford to offend him!"

One after another, the women who had met with a tragic end narrated the story of how they were bullied and bullied by Di Ming.

The Di Family people were stunned, what the f * * k was going on?

The people of Prince Guo's Mansion were also dumbfounded: What the heck is going on?

The spectators in the distance began to mock and ridicule them, their voices piercing to the ears.

"I never thought that Di Ming would actually be such a scum. It's good that he died!"

"The scum that the Di Family has taught us, the entire Di Family cannot escape its responsibility!"

"Yeah, Di Family's reputation was already bad, but after this incident, it's completely ruined."

"Men, go to the accounting office and get the silver. Give them a hundred liang each." Guo Nan called out, and a servant from Prince Guo's Mansion immediately ran over to get the silver, and the girls kowtowed to him, thanking him with their tears.

Guo Nan looked at the dumbstruck Di Long, shook his head and sighed: "Let's go quickly, don't embarrass yourself here for a scum son who isn't related by blood."

"What did you say?" Dillon was startled and angry.

Guo Nan shrugged his shoulders, pointed to the middle-aged woman whose eyes were filled with fear, and said: "Di Ming was born to her, but it has nothing to do with you, she is not your child."

Di Long's complexion changed when he saw the evasive look in Shi Mu's concubine's eyes.

In front of so many people, Dillon couldn't back down even if he suspected it.

He shouted angrily, "Don't talk nonsense!"

"Whether or not you are spouting nonsense, you will know when you go back and ask. There is no wall in this world that doesn't leak air." Guo Nan sneered.

"Let's go!" Di Long looked at Guo Nan fiercely, he waved his hand, grabbed the middle aged woman and left. Di Family's guards immediately lifted the coffin and followed him.

This was the end of a farce.

"Fighting with me is simply asking to be humiliated." Guo Nan pulled the startled Xiao Rou and turned to enter the Duke Palace.

Not too far away, a young man was hiding behind a black cloak. Seeing this scene, his mouth curved into a sinister smile as he blended into the crowd and left.

"I never thought that my Misty Rain Pavilion ladies would have such an effect. I think I have to make good use of them in the future.

"Kid, this is all part of your plan, right?" In the main hall, Guo Ziyi looked at Guo Nan, with an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Guo Nan smiled and did not speak. Guo Ziyi then asked doubtfully, "How do you know that Di Ming is not Di Long's biological son?"

"I was just randomly guessing. Di Long has so many concubines, how would he be able to take care of them?" Di Ming and Di Long did not look alike at all. I spoke carelessly just to divert the attention of the people from the Di Family, to stop them from investigating the authenticity of those women. "Who would've thought …"

Guo Nan laughed joyfully, "Judging from Di Long's panicked expression in his concubine room, he shouldn't be Di Long's seed, right?"

"You hooked up with the Master of the Misty Rain Tower?" Guo Ziyi knew what happened in Misty Rain Pavilion last night. Prince Guo's Mansion's informants were much stronger than what Guo Nan had imagined.

Guo Nan said helplessly: "Master of the Misty Rain Tower is a man, isn't it good to hook up with others?"

"The person who assassinated Princess Qiu Yue must be here for you, right? Qian Jinbao is a big shot in the arm, don't tell me that all of this is just a coincidence. "

"I didn't say anything." Guo Nan paused, frowned and thought for a moment, then asked: "Grandfather, do we have primeval stone at home?"

"Yes, you need a lot of earth attribute primeval stone, and I also cultivate a lot of fire attribute primeval stone. If you need it, I'll give you black ginseng. "

Guo Ziyi would never forget that a precious black ginseng was among the news that was reported to him.

Guo Nan obtained hundreds of primeval stone, but they were all of low rank, spirit mid and spirit upper rank. He didn't have a single yellow level primeval stone.

primeval stone was birthed from heaven and earth, it contained pure spirit energy. Even though he did not know what Guo Nan wanted with the other primeval stone s, the old man still gave it to him generously.

In the little garden, Guo Nan sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. While he was breathing, the Elemental Essence of the Five Elements had entered his body and the primeval stone in his hands had been slowly consumed.

In just half a day, Guo Nan had used up twenty primeval stone, of which five were metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. There were still many fire and earth primeval stone left, the rest of the primeval stone s had all been used up.

"Fifth level of the Origin Gathering Stage!"

Guo Nan opened his eyes as a hint of happiness flashed past his eyes. He muttered to himself, "With enough primeval stone, my cultivation speed will be very fast, but the price of primeval stone is too high, so there is only this little within the Duke Palaces."

"Nan-ge, I heard that you killed Di Ming and even humiliated the people of Di Family.

Pan Feng carried his blade, and his gigantic body appeared in front of Guo Nan.

The Pan Family was the military wing, and they had always been under his lead. The Di Family was a faction of the civil officials, they had a good relationship with the Yuwen Clan, and after the Di Family was humiliated, the entire clan called it fast.

Pan Feng arrived in front of Guo Nan and said: "Nan-ge, my father wants me to train in Fenyang City. Cultivating in the capital is too slow, and only by fighting to the death can I create strong practitioners."

"When are we going?"

"Tomorrow." Pan Feng's eyes burned with passion. Joining the army and fighting with passion had always been his dream.

"Hey, Pan Family kid, you're here too?"

Guo Ziyi walked over.

"Greetings, Grandpa Guo." Pan Feng immediately bowed.

Guo Ziyi waved his hand and laughed: "You have come to say your goodbyes?"

"Yes." Pan Feng looked at Guo Nan with reluctance written all over his face.

Guo Ziyi raised his hand, as if he wanted to pat Pan Feng's shoulder to comfort him, but halfway through, Guo Ziyi smiled bitterly and retracted his hand. This Pan Clan kid, was simply too huge.

"After he finishes his little crown, I'll have him go to Fenyang City to find you."

The "Little Weak Crown" was a sixteen year old coming of age ceremony. After the "Little Weak Crown" ceremony, one could get married and have children to inherit the title of a noble. To be a weak crown at the age of twenty meant that he had reached adulthood.

"Thank you, Grandpa Guo."

"You juniors should chat first, Guo Nan, come look for me in the study later."

When Guo Ziyi left, Guo Nan immediately brought Pan Feng to his own courtyard, and locked himself in his room, writing quickly.

"Heaven Decimating Tyrant Blade Art, a high-grade heaven rank martial skill. Give it to that brat Pan Feng, I hope he can achieve something."

"A total of more than eight thousand moves. With Pan Feng's current Sforces state, he can just barely cultivate around ten or so moves. With good training, he can just barely protect himself."

Four hours later, Guo Nan called Pan Feng into his room, handed over the book to him and said in a stern voice, "Pan Feng, you can only read the contents of this book yourself. Remember this book as soon as possible, and then destroy it."

Pan Feng did not even look at what it was about, he immediately put it into his clothes and wrapped it tightly around himself, saying: "I won't let others see, but my memory is poor, and I won't be able to memorize it in a short period of time."

"Take your time on your way to Fenyang City. If there's a chance in the future, take care of my grandfather."

"Of course, Grandpa Guo is just like my biological grandpa."

Pan Feng did not understand the deep meaning in Guo Nan's words, but Guo Nan forced out a smile and let Pan Feng return home, then went to Guo Ziyi's study.

"Guo Nan, the Emperor has drafted an imperial edict, bestowing General Qin the title of King in Daxing. He also wants us Guo Family to give half of the authority of the garrison to the General Qin. Changyang City is our Guo Family's greatest reliance. Once half of us are separated, our Guo Family will be in danger. "Tomorrow at dawn, the imperial edict will be issued."

Guo Ziyi's face turned serious, and a look of worry surfaced in his eyes.

"Is there any way to save them?"

"Yes, that's the same as having none."

Guo Ziyi looked deeply at Guo Nan, and helplessly shook his head: "When two dukes compete, it will definitely involve the younger generation. The emperor means that as long as you can defeat General Qin's son Qin Sheng at the day of the Little Weak Crown Ceremony, a hundred thousand garrison will still belong to our Guo Family. If he lost, all of the garrison would fall into the hands of the Qin family. He took away our Guo Family's military power because he wanted to use you as an example. After all, your previous performance was too terrible!
