The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength

Lu Xiuyuan noticed Xia Younan's sadness at the first moment, sat down next to her, took her hand and held it in his, silently comforting her.

Xia Younan sniffed, shook his head and smiled, "It's okay. Although I don't have parents, I have more than 30 brothers who love me and a master who raised me. No matter how you look at it, it's a win, hehe."

"Silly girl~" Lu Xiuyuan's heart was broken. He held her hand and kissed it gently.

"Perhaps, I was born with a weak bond with my parents, and was destined to have a deep bond with my fellow apprentices."

Chanmu was more open-minded. He was abandoned in front of a temple when he was still a baby, and he had never experienced parental love, so he did not feel any regrets.

Pu Xuan sighed and comforted them, "In one's life, there are gains and losses, and there are losses and gains. This is all destined from the moment you were born. You don't have to take it too seriously."

"Disciple understands." Chanmu and Xia Younan responded at the same time.

After discussing this topic, Pu Xuan looked at Lu Xiuyuan and saw that the young man had no eyes for anyone else but Xia Younan. He smiled knowingly and asked Xia Younan, "Younan, this is your husband, right?"

Xia Younan glanced at Lu Xiuyuan beside her and said a little embarrassedly: "Master, I forgot to introduce him to you. How did you know he was my husband's?"

Pu Xuan laughed and explained, "Master, I have long predicted that you will have a good marriage when you are eighteen years old. You are twenty years old this year, and you must have been married long ago.

"And the way this young man looks at you is full of deep affection, so I guess he is your husband."

Xia Younan's cheeks flushed quietly, and she leaned closer to Lu Xiuyuan, shyly admitting: "Master is very smart, Xiuyuan is indeed my disciple's husband. We got married two years ago, and he treats me very well."

"That's good, that's good!" Pu Xuan happily said yes twice.

Lu Xiuyuan bowed to Pu Xuan again and promised him that he would never let Xia Younan down. Then when everyone quieted down, he explained the purpose of their trip to Pu Xuan, hoping to ask him to come out and help.

Pu Xuan was shocked when he heard about it, and asked in astonishment, "How could such an incident happen in the city?"

Lu Xiuyuan clasped his fists and replied, "It is absolutely true! Master Puxuan, we are sure that the so-called 'miracle' must have been deliberately done by Ye Beimo and others.

"In order to achieve their goal, they did not hesitate to harm innocent people in the city. This is extremely shameless!"

"This is outrageous!" Pu Xuan said angrily, looking sullen, "I watched Tang City grow from decline to prosperity before my eyes. How can I let a villain ruin this peaceful and prosperous era?"

After saying that, he got off the bed, straightened his robes, and called a few people to go out. "We will go down the mountain now. Although I have not heard of worldly affairs for many years, I believe that I still have some face in the hearts of the city lord and the people. With me here, I will definitely not let the thief succeed."

Lu Xiuyuan and his companions were overjoyed and quickly responded and followed.

After Pu Xuan came down the mountain, before he entered the city, he was recognized by sharp-eyed passers-by. They were surprised at first, but then they bowed and kowtowed in fear and trepidation as if they had seen a god. They almost knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times to express their admiration.

Pu Xuan exchanged a few polite words with them gently, and when faced with questions, he said frankly that there were evil people in the city and he came to give advice and remonstrance to the city lord.

When the people heard this, they were shocked. They thought something big had happened. Even Master Pu Xuan, who lived in seclusion in the mountains, had intervened. They were so panicked that they rushed back to the city and told everyone about this important news. They asked everyone to gather at the city lord's mansion because something big was going to happen in the city.

Seeing this scene, Xia Younan was secretly shocked. Her master's influence in Tang City was even greater than she had imagined. It seemed that there was hope of stopping Ye Beimo from borrowing troops.

The news that Pu Xuan had gone down the mountain spread in the city at lightning speed, so much so that before Pu Xuan arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord Jun Zhonglin had heard the news and was waiting respectfully at the door of the City Lord's Mansion with civil and military officials.

At the same time, people in the city who heard the news also flocked here from all directions.

Seeing Pu Xuan coming from afar, Jun Zhonglin felt like he had seen his biological father. He lifted his robe and trotted over to meet him.

"Master, why are you here?" He greeted as he ran. "If you want to go down the mountain, please send a message to me in advance. I will drive the carriage to pick you up in person!"

Pu Xuan was a little unhappy, looking at Jun Zhonglin and complaining: "If I don't come again, your Tangcheng will repeat the same mistakes!"

Jun Zhonglin was stunned and asked hurriedly, "Master, what do you mean?"

"You lent a hundred thousand soldiers to evil people, letting them use them to start wars and harm civilians, and letting your own people become knives for others to kill. Can you bear such a huge cause and effect?" Pu Xuan accused him with a cold face, as fearless as when they first met.

“This…” Jun Zhonglin was choked by him, and after he came to his senses, he smiled bitterly and explained to him helplessly, “Master, so this is why you came down the mountain.

"Alas, I understand what you said, but borrowing troops is the idea of ​​the mountain god, not my personal idea. If you don't believe me, ask the people."

At this time, the people who rushed in after hearing the news had filled the entire street. Looking around, there were crowds of people in all directions, and there was no end in sight.

When Jun Zhonglin spoke, the people immediately agreed and explained loudly: "Master Puxuan, you don't know that borrowing troops is the will of the mountain god. The mountain god appeared, and the golden body showed the words!"

“That’s right, the city lord only considered it for a few days, and the mountain god sent down fire from the sky to burn down the houses, and also sent wild beasts into the city to cause chaos for us.

"These inexplicable celestial phenomena all indicate that borrowing troops is the will of the mountain god!"

The people responded one after another and explained to Pu Xuan the reason of the matter.

Pu Xuan had heard these things from Lu Xiuyuan before, and he was not moved. Instead, he frowned and said solemnly: "You are confused, the mountain god is a god, the protector god worshipped by Tang City for generations!

"As your protector, how could he push you into the fire pit?"

The people looked at each other in bewilderment. Someone said weakly, "It's just lending troops to others. How can it be pushing us into the fire pit?"

Pu Xuan sighed and explained the pros and cons of the matter to them, "People, you have been living in peace for too long and don't know how terrible war is.

"They borrowed our soldiers to fight and kill people, not to do some work and then come back. War kills people!

"Those 100,000 soldiers include your relatives, friends and neighbors. War is fiercer than a tiger. The battlefield is not a playground. It is full of killing and death.

"You're giving up your peaceful life and sending your people there to shed blood and sacrifice for the benefit of others. What do you want?"

After he said this, the bustling people gradually quieted down. They looked at each other, as if they had just realized the seriousness of the war at this moment.
