Mentioning her parents, Lan Lingling's eyes dimmed instantly.

She pursed her lips tightly and finally spoke with difficulty: "He was killed by the Qin people. As you know, there has been no peace between Great Qin and Southern Xinjiang in the past few years."

"I have also tried to find enemies, but because of the passage of time, the events of that year have been buried with the passage of time."

"In these years in Da Qin, I have been trying my best to find out the truth of that year, but apart from knowing that they died at the hands of the Qin people, I can't find anything else."

"Master advised me to give up and not let me spend the rest of my life on revenge. Gradually, this matter was suppressed in my heart. Because of the disappointment again and again, I was not so persistent."

When Lu Mingyu heard this, he understood Lan Lingling.

For the people of Qin, filial piety is greater than heaven. Killing someone to avenge their parents' blood is not only not a crime according to the national law, but is highly praised by the national law.

In this context, no one can forget the hatred of killing his father and his mother.

Just like what my brother once shouldered, I will try my best to get revenge.

But it is different in southern Xinjiang. No matter how deep the relationship between parents and children is, they will not be bound by ethics and education since childhood. There is no concept of father being the guide for son.

Therefore, Lan Lingling can bury this hatred deep in her heart, not because she has forgotten it, but because it is more important to live a good life in the future than to seek revenge that is out of reach.

So, Lu Mingyu held Lan Lingling's hand: "As a survivor, what I can tell you is that it's good to be alive."

Lan Lingling blinked her eyes and held back the tears in her eyes: "Thanks to Master, if he hadn't adopted me and trained me to become a saint in Southern Xinjiang, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Lu Mingyu asked her: "What are your plans for the future?"

Lan Lingling said: "I can no longer be a saint. I will definitely face being expelled from southern Xinjiang in the future. What's worse is that I have to pay the price with my life for my actions."

"But I don't regret it. Since I made the choice, I should bear the corresponding consequences for my actions."

"But I am greedy and timid, so I will survive as much as possible. Only in this way can I stay with Ace for a long time."

"I came to you today. In addition to thanking you, I also want to ask you to do me a favor. I know this may be embarrassing for you, but it is very important to me."

Lu Mingyu nodded: "You say."

Lan Lingling took a deep breath: "These elders are not the kind of people who can swallow their anger. This time because of my matter, they must feel that they have been fooled."

"Based on their character, they will definitely take revenge on you and His Highness. I know they have no chance of winning, so can you promise me to spare my master's life in the end?"

"My master is a good man. He has been thinking about southern Xinjiang his whole life. I hope he can live, both emotionally and rationally."

Lu Mingyu readily agreed: "Zhaohua and I are not the kind of people who kill innocent people indiscriminately, and we will not make fun of our lives easily."

"If they can negotiate this matter properly, Zhaohua and I will naturally compensate them for breaking the contract. But if we can't negotiate, we can only take tough measures."

"Don't worry, we will spare the life of the great elder, even if it is to repay their kindness for traveling thousands of miles to Yujing City to save His Highness."

Lan Lingling held Lu Mingyu's hand and was so moved that she didn't know what to say: "Yu'er, thank you."

Lu Mingyu asked her: "How prepared are you and Your Majesty to deal with the punishment imposed on you by the elders?"

Lan Lingling said: "In fact, I am planning to go to Master to express my feelings first and let Master know that I have made up my mind."

"Let Master know that he doesn't have to show favoritism in my matter and just deal with me in accordance with the rules of Southern Xinjiang."

"As for whether I accept the punishment, that is my own business. I am not afraid of anything now. The only thing I am worried about is that Master will be in trouble because of my matter."

Lu Mingyu sighed: "I understand this is not easy. When will you go? I will accompany you."

Lan Lingling shook her head: "I can only face this matter by myself. Not only do I want peace of mind, but I also need to let several elders vent this out, so as not to end up with it in the future."

When Lu Mingyu heard this, he could only nod his head: "Be careful in everything. If you need anything, be sure to let me know."

Lan Lingling stood up: "Then, I will go to the post house now."

After saying that, she grabbed the food from Table Mountain, smiled and left.

After she left, Lu Mingyu called Ah Liu: "Send a message to Ling, who is keeping an eye on the post house. We must protect the safety of Miss Lingling."

Ah Liu bowed in response and then retreated.

Lu Yi brought the lunch: "Mother, eat your food first. It's not good for your health to be so hungry and full after a meal."

Lu Mingyu nodded: "Bring it here. I want to drink chicken soup. Ask the kitchen to simmer it for me. I want to drink it tonight."

Lu Yi responded in a low voice.

Lan Lingling did what she said, and she quickly arrived at the post house.

After pacing back and forth at the door a few times, she walked in.

The fifth elder set up a Gu array and was the first to notice her arrival, so he told everyone: "The saint is here."

The great elder sighed: "You're here to have sex, right?"

The third elder's face turned ferocious with anger: "She still dares to come, and she is not afraid of death!"

The fifth elder advised: "Third brother, the other party is the emperor of Qin. I think it is better to let her marry the emperor of Qin as a saint than to deal with her."

The third elder was furious: "Boss, what do you think about anger?"

The great elder has feelings for Lan Lingling, so naturally he has some selfish motives.

Hearing this, he nodded slowly: "Lao Wu is right. The matter has come to this, and there is no point in punishing her. It is better to get married and take the opportunity to ask the Emperor of Qin for a condition."

The other two elders were silent, obviously they were watching.

After a while, Lan Lingling walked in from the outside. Facing the elders who were "ready to prepare," she knelt down respectfully: "Master, I am here to apologize."

The third elder snorted coldly: "Shameless!"

The great elder sat down slowly and did not speak immediately.

The fifth elder asked her: "Is the Emperor of Qin willing to marry you? Make you his queen?"

Lan Lingling saw that the reactions of several people were somewhat different from what she imagined. After hearing the fifth elder's words, she immediately understood the key.

In the end, she didn't hide anything and told the truth: "He is willing, but the court officials are not willing."

As soon as he said this, the third elder suddenly sneered: "Boss and Fifth, did you make the wrong calculation? The Emperor of Qin only wants to eat, not take responsibility."

Everyone was silent for a while, and Lan Lingling did not refute. She did not want to argue with the stubborn and irritable third elder.

In the end, it was the Great Elder who spoke first: "Lingling, tell the truth to Master, do you think this choice is worth it? Are you... happy?"
