Blind Ghostwriter: Starts with the full level of Nine Yang Magic Skill

Chapter 35 Prince Mu’s Mansion

"Madam Wang, I'm sorry. I was too self-righteous. It was my fault that Mr. Wang was killed!"

In the Wang family hall, Zhuo Qingfeng, who was already heartbroken, still forced himself to do the finishing work. However, the first thing he did was to apologize to Wang Yuanbao's wife.

Mrs. Wang and Wang Yuanbao are a typical combination of an old husband and a young wife. Wang Yuanbao lost his wife in his early years and did not remarry until he was in his forties. At that time, Mrs. Wang was only seventeen or eighteen years old. Now, more than ten years have passed, Wang Yuanbao is in his sixties, and Mrs. Wang is only in her early thirties, at the peak of her charm. She knelt on the ground and cried, her eyes tearing up.

Zhuo Qingfeng was silent, full of guilt.

It was indeed his dereliction of duty in this matter. He had started to lay the groundwork several days in advance and had the help of many martial arts masters. Under such circumstances, the assassination of Silver Fox was still successful. He needs to take the blame for dereliction of duty.

At present,
The person most affected by Wang Yuanbao's death was Mrs. Wang.

Because Mrs. Wang and Wang Yuanbao were married later in life, and Wang Yuanbao's sons were older than Mrs. Wang, in this situation, once Wang Yuanbao died, Mrs. Wang would have no one to rely on, and her life would be very difficult in the future.

At this time, in the hall,

Mrs. Wang lay on Wang Yuanbao's body and cried heart-wrenchingly, almost fainting.

After a long time,

Mrs. Wang was helped by her maid to sit on the chair, her eyes dull and her expression numb.

"I'm sorry, Madam Wang," Zhuo Qingfeng stepped forward to apologize again, saying, "Don't worry, I will do my best to catch the murderer. I will not only avenge Mr. Wang, but also avenge my dozen or so colleagues from the Six Gates. However, the current situation is due to my dereliction of duty, which has led to such a tragedy. I'm sorry!"

Madam Wang slumped in her chair, completely numb. She said, "I don't blame you, Master Zhuo. I know you've done your best. The Six Gates lost so many men, and even the friends my master invited to help him sacrificed their lives. You've done your best. I thank you all on behalf of my master!"

Mrs. Wang's understanding and reasonableness made Zhuo Qingfeng feel even more guilty, and Gu Mo, Bai Tou Weng, and Shusheng, the three ghostwriters, felt very embarrassed.

"Master Zhuo, all the heroes,"

Mrs. Wang wiped her tears, stood up suddenly, and said, "I have something I would like to ask for your help!"

After saying that, Mrs. Wang knelt directly on the ground.

"Madam Wang, what are you doing?"

Zhuo Qingfeng hurriedly helped Madam Wang up.

The two ghostwriters, Bai Tou Weng and the scholar, also hurriedly said, "Madam Wang, if you have anything to say, please tell me. If you want to avenge Mr. Wang, you don't need to say anything more. As long as we have the chance, we will definitely kill Silver Fox!"

"Yes, yes, we will definitely bring Silver Fox to justice." Both of them were still not too confident. Judging from the current situation, Silver Fox's swordsmanship was so superb that it was beyond imagination. Although both of them were gold medal ghostwriters, they were not afraid of death. With the strength shown by Silver Fox, any of them would have no chance of survival if they met him alone.

However, in the current situation, they could not admit defeat, otherwise they would be too ashamed to survive in the underworld if the news got out. Therefore, both of them expressed their willingness to take revenge, but they did not say how or when.

However, Madam Wang shook her head slightly and said, "I'm not asking you to avenge my master. Revenge is certain. Afterwards, my Wang family will increase the reward to ten thousand taels. However, right now, I want to talk about another matter."

As she spoke, Madam Wang looked around and said, "Actually, my master had a premonition that he might not be able to escape this disaster. So, two days ago, he told me that if he really couldn't escape the disaster and died, I should make public in front of you all the reasons why he was assassinated by Silver Fox."

As soon as Mrs. Wang said this,

Everyone's expression became serious, and they all realized that what Mrs. Wang was about to say was definitely a big deal.

Madam Wang pondered for a moment and said, "I wonder if you have heard of the Mu Palace. It once dominated the Yunzhou martial arts world over a hundred years ago."

Zhuo Qingfeng responded, "I've heard that Prince Mu was the brother of Emperor Dezhao. After Emperor Dezhao ascended the throne, he was granted land in Pyongyang County, Yunzhou. However, Prince Mu later participated in a rebellion and his entire family was exterminated. The Prince Mu's Mansion disappeared from the world. Is this the Prince Mu's Mansion Madam Wang is talking about?"

Madam Wang nodded and said, "It is this Muwang Mansion. What I want to talk about is related to this Muwang Mansion.

More than a hundred years ago, the Mu Palace was destroyed and the entire family was exterminated for participating in a rebellion. Before the extermination, Mu Wang had anticipated this and called in his three most trusted guards in advance, handing each of them a token.

This token is a treasure map that records the treasure hidden by the Wooden King. The Wooden King tells the three guards that only by combining the three tokens in their hands can they find the treasure location.

He ordered the three guards to change their names, hide in the underworld, and wait for the call from the descendants of the Wood King. He warned the three guards to pass down this secret, and that all future generations must wait for the call from the descendants of the Wood King. When the descendants of the Wood King arrived, they would combine the three tokens and take out the treasure left by the Wood King to use as funds for rebellion.

After hearing this, everyone had already made some guesses.

Madam Wang continued, "My master's ancestor was one of the three great guards of the Mu Palace. However, by the time it was passed down to my master, he was already the fourth generation and had no connection with the Mu Palace. Moreover, the current emperor is wise, so my master naturally no longer took the ancestral precepts to heart.

However, three months ago, the master received a letter from Qingyang County. The person claimed to be the descendant of one of the three great guards and said that he had received a summons from the Mu Palace.

The master made an appointment to meet that person. That person was of high status as well. He was a famous master in the underworld of Qingyang County named Zhao Hai. He had many children and grandchildren and a harmonious family. He made it clear that he was unwilling to rebel with the so-called descendants of King Mu, and he had no interest in the so-called treasure, and he did not want to see war in Yunzhou.

However, Zhao Hai didn't know what the descendants of King Mu were planning, so he gave his family's treasure token to my master, saying that if he could reach an agreement with the descendants of King Mu, then everything would be fine. If not, he might die, and if he died, let the master find a way.

A month later, the master received news that Zhao Hai had died. At that time, the master knew that the descendants of the Wood King would definitely come to find him next. Sure enough, not long after, the family received a letter from the descendants of the Wood King, asking the master to come to see him with a token. Thinking of Zhao Hai's experience, the master did not go to the appointment. Then not long after, he received the death notice of the killer Silver Fox!
