Chapter 2123 Bailie is mine!
As for how to produce rare pearls, this was a method found by Lu Dingxun and also a secret of the Lu family, so Lu Zhenxian did not say much.
Emperor Jiuyou asked again: "Since then, has there been no more children of destiny?"
The elders all looked at Lu Zhensheng, but Lu Zhenxian said, "After that, there has been no more recognized sons of luck."
The key point is the word "recognized".
Lu Lianqing coughed and said, "The clan leader's second son, Lu Qinglin, was appointed General Mou Guoxu and married the daughter of General Yutian Xia Pei. He holds military power and is expected to take over the title."
"Is that so?" Emperor Jiuyou said calmly, "Shouldn't the son of destiny lead the family to prosperity? Lu Qinglin's career in the Mou Kingdom is very successful, but that is his own success. What does it have to do with your Lu family?"
He spoke bluntly, and Lu Zhensheng's face swelled slightly, but Lu Qingan pretended not to hear him.
The Lu family members inside and outside the garden felt secretly happy when they heard this.
Lu Zhensheng has always been proud of being the second son, but in the eyes of other people in the Lu family, Lu Qinglin's development and achievements in Mou State are often inseparable from Bailie's support. His parents and clans in his hometown have been giving him blood transfusions, so that he can thrive and achieve success.
The Nine Nether Emperor had a sharp gaze and immediately saw through the vanity of the Lu family father and son.
Lu Lianqing had no choice but to defend the clan leader: "Qinglin is certainly giving back to Bailie. In recent years, the Ya Kingdom has frequently invaded, and he lobbied Emperor Mou and even brought the Mou army back to drive out the Ya people."
Lu Zhenxian chuckled: "Second uncle, you are joking. How long does it take for Qinglin to bring his troops back? If we rely on him, Bailie would have been gone long ago."
The Great Emperor Jiuyou was right beside him, so what was he afraid of? Besides, he knew exactly what the Great Emperor Jiuyou was here for today, so he opened his mouth and hit a straight ball out.
These words had been in his heart for who knows how many years. As soon as he said them out loud today, Lu Zhenxian felt as if everything in his body was unblocked.
Ah, cool!
Lu Zhensheng was startled and didn't have time to get angry.
No matter what conflicts there were between the Lu brothers, they used to behave in a friendly and respectful manner. Now the sixth brother suddenly spoke out and stopped pretending. Was he trying to use the power of the Nine Nether Emperor to gain power?
No matter what happens in the future, my father and I are in danger today.
Lu Lianyun's beard was gray and his eyelids were drooping, but he had been carefully observing everyone's expressions. At this moment, he suddenly said, "Qingbang is also very capable. At the critical moment, these major battles were all fought by Qingbang."
When everyone heard this, they all complained in their hearts that this old man was opportunistic.
Lu Zhenxian waved his hands and said, "With Qingbang's little ability and luck, how can he be called a man of luck? Alas, it's a blessing to be even slightly related to him!"
He clearly said that his son was not a son of luck. Everyone was stunned and didn't know what he was up to.
How can he fight for the position of head of the family if he doesn't raise his son?
Moreover, Lu Qingbang looked normal, and even the impulsive Lu Feiyan looked as if it was a matter of course. It was obvious that the siblings and their father had already discussed it.
"Other people?" Lu Lianyun grasped the key point, "Which family?"
He knew that Lu Laoliu and the boss didn't get along, so he wouldn't praise Lu Qinglin with such envy and admiration. So this "other person" was probably someone else.
There are only a few people in the Lu family with the character "Qing". Apart from Qinglin and Qingbang, no one has been able to find a third person with the potential to be the "Son of Fortune".
Could it be that Lu Zhenxian was referring to his daughter Lu Feiyan? No, no, it doesn't seem like that.
Facing everyone's confused looks, Lu Feiyan spoke:
"Have you forgotten, Fourth Uncle? We still have the main family."
As soon as the word "master" came out, everyone's faces turned ugly.
I haven't heard these two words for a long time.
The Lu family had been a single-line family for several generations, with few descendants, and died out more than 20 years ago. Because Lu Zhensheng's ascension to the throne was not legitimate, it became a taboo word.
Several Lu clan leaders looked at each other. What was going on? They secretly glanced at Emperor Jiuyou and saw that he looked calm and silent.
With him by her side, Lu Feiyan couldn't possibly act rashly or speak nonsense, so this was all arranged in advance!
Lu Zhensheng's face changed drastically. Why did the Great Emperor Jiuyou specifically mention the "Son of Fortune"? Could it be...
Could it be that Emperor Jiuyou is going to support a so-called "Son of Fortune" to drive him out of power and control the Lu family?
It’s possible, very likely!
No wonder he rejected Lu Qinglin and Lu Qingbang. It turned out that he had more suitable candidates to promote!
Lu Lianyun rushed to speak before the others and passed the message to Lu Feiyan: "Xiaoyan, kid, just tell me what's going on. We all know that the main family has withered, and now the side branches are blooming."
Lu Zhensheng and several of his brothers are the "side branches".
But this time it was Lu Zhen who took over the conversation first: "The last bloodline of the main family is Lu Xiaoyun. I should call her my cousin. She left Bailie at the age of twelve and sailed west. There has been no news since then. We all thought she was buried overseas, but in fact she arrived in the country of Yuan in the west, grew up in Blackwater City, and got married and had children."
"Why has Bailie been getting worse and worse over the years? Even though the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has revived, we haven't seen any improvement here? The root cause is that the Son of Luck was forced to drift overseas and could not bless Bailie!"
"You want to say that Lu Xiaoyun is the child of destiny? That's ridiculous!" Lu Zhensheng was furious. He didn't care that Emperor Jiuyou was beside him. He pointed at Lu Zhenxian's nose and scolded, "Sixth Brother, where did you hear these made-up nonsense from?"
Lu Zhenxian turned his head to look at him, his eyes flashing with satisfaction: "Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't finished speaking yet. Lu Xiaoyun is not the child of destiny, but her son is!"
He exhaled and spoke, making sure that everyone in and outside the garden could hear his next words:
"Lu Xiaoyun's son's surname is He!"
Last name He... Last name He... There seemed to be an echo in the garden.
Those who were slower in reacting didn't know what was going on. What happened to He? But when they looked at their companions, those who were more intelligent had their mouths wide open.
Lu Qingan jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on. Lu Zhensheng's body swayed twice, and his breath was stuck in his throat, and he almost couldn't breathe.
The news was so explosive that the other members of the Lu family at the table looked at each other in bewilderment and were speechless for a moment.
The Emperor Jiuyou in front of me seems to, uh, also have the surname He?
Lu Lianyun looked at Lu Zhenxian, then at Emperor Jiuyou, with no other emotion in his eyes except shock.
"Sixth Brother, are you saying, saying..."
The two generals Wu and Huang standing beside them frowned.
How did things suddenly develop to this point?
They wanted to speak up to stop it, but they didn't know what to say. This was the Lu family's family affair, but it accidentally involved the Nine Nether Emperor.
He Lingchuan reached out and picked up the wine jug, pouring himself a glass. In the silence, the sound of the wine being poured was particularly abrupt.
Just like his appearance here was out of place.
"My biological mother is Lu Xiaoyun." He Lingchuan's eyes swept across the faces of everyone present. Those who were stared at by him subconsciously lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him. "It is my responsibility to support Bailie, because--"
He said word by word: "Bailie is my territory!"
