Chapter 164 The Real Mo Family (I)
&34;I would like to answer my sister's question first. She asked me what exactly I remember.
At the beginning, before I separated from Orange and came to find my sister, I had complete memories of my previous life. Orange's departure caused me to lose my memories. There was nothing I could do about it. So, my memory only included the place mentioned in the book that Orange gave to my sister. &34;
After hearing Shen Jinyi's answer, Cheng Jinchu nodded slightly.
"That book... the direction was changed because of me. You know me. I was furious when I read that book, so I did some things. As a result, there were some parts that disappeared before I had time to read them. Only the words about the princess's plum blossom viewing banquet were left. Now, those words have also disappeared with the end of the princess's plum blossom viewing banquet."
Shen Jinyi smiled, took the plum blossom cake that Cheng Zi handed to her, took a bite, and the fragrance of plum blossoms spread in her mouth...
This is her favorite pastry. Orange still likes to feed her food like before. In this respect, she is very similar to her sister. Looking at her thin appearance, Orange always wants to fatten her up.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, these are just some unimportant plots. Since my sister has changed the direction of the story, does the subsequent content still matter?"
When Cheng Jinchu heard Shen Jinyi's relaxed tone, he started laughing along with her.
"Then, about the Mo family..."
Shen Jinyi knew what Cheng Jinchu wanted to ask, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he took two sips of tea and wiped the pastry crumbs off his hands with a handkerchief.
"The Mo family affairs are memories that Chengzi helped me to keep. I misunderstood my father for a long time in my previous life, so in this life I just want to stay by my father's side and take good care of him. The Mo family affairs are the complete story that I pieced together before I died in my previous life. However, at that time, my father thought I was living a good life, so he followed my mother, and I..."
Having said that, Shen Jinyi sniffed and forced a smile.
&34;Sister, don't look at me like that. I'm fine. It's just that these memories that I force into my brain often give me headaches. Actually, there are no other disadvantages. Besides, it will take a lot of effort to investigate the affairs of the Mo family. I remember these things, which just happens to solve the big trouble, right? &34;
Cheng Jinchu pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and sighed softly, then closed her eyes and took a deep breath, raised her head again, forced a smile, and then reached out and touched Shen Jinyi's head.
&34;My sister... has grown up and can handle such a big problem by herself. I am very happy! &34;
Shen Jinyi looked at her sister who was smiling very reluctantly. She knew in her heart that her sister felt sorry for her, but she said that because she wanted to cooperate with her forced smile. However, she was really happy. This time, she finally didn't have to face everything alone, so she unconsciously put on the most relaxed tone.
"Well, sister, I'm going to start telling you a long story. Orange, please sit down and listen to the story carefully!"
After saying that, Shen Jinyi poured himself a glass of water before sitting down.
"When I talk about the Mo family, I want to talk about an organization first. I don't know if you have heard of that organization, because this organization is not well-known in Cang Continent. It appeared suddenly, and once it appeared, it stood at a very high position. That organization is called Duling."
As Shen Jinyi spoke, he dipped his finger in tea and wrote the name of the organization on the table. Cheng Jinchu looked at it carefully and searched her memory. She had indeed never heard of it and could only shake her head. However, Ming Yetang should be able to find out something in advance if he checked it out.
&34;What is the so-called high position? &34;
Cheng Jinchu noticed the key point in Shen Jinyi's words.
&34;First of all, I want to make one thing clear. I do have memories of that part, but they don't correspond to the people and there are no pictures.
Um~ What I mean is, I remember that the Han Kingdom's national teacher was in that organization, but I don't know who the Han Kingdom's emperor was at that time. I am sure I have met that national teacher, because I remember the scene of the meeting, but I don't remember what this person looks like. &34;
Cheng Jinchu was not surprised to hear Shen Jinyi say this. Her memories were all forced upon her, and it was already very good that she could clearly remember the name of the organization and that someone in that organization had become the national master.
"I think the emperor must not be the current one."
Cheng Jinchu had read the book The Good Maid, and she knew who would win in the future struggle for imperial power.
"Then, I guess, it's probably the second prince."
Shen Jinyi blurted out the words almost without thinking.
Cheng Jinchu smiled. This result was not difficult to guess. The eldest prince actually had no intention of becoming the emperor. It was just that he had the best status. His maternal grandfather must have hoped that he could ascend the throne. The eldest prince had the most supporters in the court, so he had to fight for the throne even if he didn't want to.
Next is the third prince, who is the most eager to compete but the least qualified and the most useless. He is not good at either civil or military affairs. He can only dream. No one is optimistic about him.
The current emperor has few children, and the only ones who can compete for the throne are the first three princes. As for the second prince, he is the best among his brothers. If we have to find a bad thing about him, it would only be that his mother was just a lowly foot-washing maid in the beginning!
I heard that the second prince followed his master when he was ten years old. His master Qi was a well-known figure in Cang Continent. He was famous for his martial arts. Master Yi, who had been mentioned before, was famous for his medical skills. However, if you count carefully, Qi became famous more than 20 years earlier than Master Yi!
No one has seen Qi since he retired from the world 20 years ago. It is understandable if you think about it. According to people who have seen Qi, when he met Qi 50 years ago, he saw a teenager. So, Qi is old now and can no longer fight, so naturally he wants to cultivate his character and retreat from the world. It is inevitable.
"Oh, now I remember, the second prince should be your nephew, right? I remember Qi was your senior brother."
Cheng Jinchu nodded. His senior brother felt that life was too boring, so he started teaching apprentices to pass the time. After a while, he got bored, so most of those apprentices were taught by his eldest disciple Tan Lin. Only Zhang Zirui and the youngest apprentice were taught by himself. However, Cheng Jinchu had never seen the doted little junior sister. Zhang Zirui once told Cheng Jinchu about that girl, saying that the girl looked a bit like her.
Cheng Jinchu remembered the nephew of the second prince of Han Kingdom, Xiao Junyi. He was very old-fashioned and boring, although his martial arts skills were not the best among her senior brother's disciples.
However, to be honest, among the male disciples, he is definitely ranked first in terms of appearance. No, it should be said that among all the good-looking men Cheng Jinchu has seen in this life, or in his previous life, his appearance ranks among the top few.
He always wears white all year round, which makes him look cold from the inside out.
"Ah... He is a boring person, very rigid, conservative and rigid. However, I heard from Zhang Zirui that the other disciples suspected that he liked their pampered little sister. By the way, do you still remember Zhang Zirui?"
Hearing Zhang Zirui's name, Shen Jinyi couldn't help but laugh. He was the "playboy" who seemed to be romantic and dissolute but was actually very innocent, the one who dressed so well that he looked like a butterfly every time she saw him, the one who always lavishly gave him many gifts whenever they met, and the eldest grandson of the Zhang family's legitimate lineage.
Speaking of the Zhang family, there is no family in the Cang Continent that is as rich as the Zhang family. Moreover, the Zhang family is good at making weapons, and the Zhang family's mechanical skills are also very powerful. However, the mechanical skills are all rumors. After all, the head of the Zhang family and his clansmen retired from the world fifty years ago and announced to the outside world that they would not participate in any national struggle.
It's not just a rumor that the Zhang family's weapons are of excellent quality. Because a certain monarch of the Southern Kingdom had done the Zhang family a favor, the Southern Kingdom provided the raw materials, and the Zhang family would provide two batches of weapons to the monarch of the Southern Kingdom every year. The Zhang family has been making weapons for the Southern Kingdom for ten years, and this year happens to be the last year.
