$43. So what?

Willing to follow His Highness till death?

Xiao Changfeng was stunned, turned his eyes to Zhou Zhenghao, and raised his lips slightly:

"Master Zhou, what do you mean by this?"

Follow!

These two words cannot be said easily.

Zhou Zhenghao said this.

Then from now on, he is Xiao Changfeng's subordinate.

Prosperity together!

Loss together!

Zhou Zhenghao had preached to him before, and was extremely disappointed.

How come he wants to follow him in the blink of an eye?

Zhou Zhenghao is not Lu Wenjie or Zhao Sanqing.

Lu Wenjie and Zhao Sanqing were impressed by his elixirs and became his disciples to learn alchemy.

Zhou Zhenghao is the governor of Qingzhou, a high-ranking official.

He is also a strong man of the sixth level of the Imperial Martial Realm, with 100,000 heavy troops.

He is equivalent to a local lord.

Such a person actually wants to follow him.

Xiao Changfeng does not think that he has any kingly aura that can make people bow down to him.

Then, Zhou Zhenghao's move must have other meanings.

Sure enough, Zhou Zhenghao looked up and looked straight at Xiao Changfeng.

Then he carefully took out a handkerchief from his arms.

The handkerchief was square and white like brocade, but there was a pair of lifelike red cicadas in the center.

"This is your mother, Concubine Xuan's handkerchief!"

Zhou Zhenghao's words instantly made Xiao Changfeng's eyes focus.

Handkerchiefs are private items for women.

Don't give them away easily.

How could his mother's handkerchief be in Zhou Zhenghao's hands?

Last time he said that his mother had saved his life, so he would preach to himself.

Now it seems.

There seems to be another hidden story?

"Your Highness, let me tell you a story!"

Zhou Zhenghao's eyes were bright and he spoke in a deep voice.

"Okay!"

Xiao Changfeng looked at Zhou Zhenghao deeply and nodded.

He had a hunch.

The matter about his mother was finally about to be revealed.

"There was a beautiful girl, born in a big family. Her beauty was well-known, so many people came to propose marriage."

"In a big family, women have no say in marriage and can only listen to their parents, but this girl was unwilling to be manipulated, so she took her servants and escaped from the family."

"They ran and ran, and ran very far away."

"They wanted to wander around the world, but one day, the girl met a man who made her heart beat."

"So they met, got to know each other, fell in love, and finally got married!"

"But this man is not an ordinary person, but the ruler of a country, so the girl naturally became a concubine."

"Empress Xuan, that's the girl, and I am the young lady's servant!"

Zhou Zhenghao's eyes flashed with memories, and he spoke slowly.

Xiao Changfeng was startled, this was the first time he learned about his mother's past.

His mother left when he was three years old, so the memory in his mind was very vague.

But as Zhou Zhenghao told the story, the image of his mother gradually became clear.

His mother's surname was Xia, and her given name was Chan.

Xia Chan.

"After the young lady passed away, I have been concerned about your highness, but the queen is powerful, so I can only do it in secret, not in front of others."

"I know that the young lady's death is related to the queen, and your highness's martial soul was also taken away by the queen. I am heartbroken every night, but I can't do anything."

"I wanted your highness to give up the idea of ​​revenge. With my power, I can at least protect your highness for life."

"Your highness is the only blood left by the young lady, and I can't watch you die."

"But your highness has given me too many surprises."

"Now that you have the power of revenge, I decided to tell you all this."

Zhou Zhenghao's eyes revealed an emotion called sadness.

This upright and upright man.

Finally, tears welled up.

It's hard to imagine how he survived by burying this pain in his heart for more than ten years.

That day, he and the young lady escaped from the family.

In his world, the young lady was the only one.

But later, his world collapsed.

It was like his heart was dead!

His preaching to Xiao Changfeng, his disappointment in him.

In fact.

It was all for protection.

To protect the only blood left by the young lady.

Xiao Changfeng understood all this.

In front of him, a gentle figure gradually emerged.

Her name was Xia Chan.

She is my mother!

Xiao Changfeng was silent for a long time, and a smile appeared on his face from time to time, which turned into a faint sadness in an instant, and then calm again after a moment.

I don’t know how many kinds of emotions fermented, intertwined, and collided in his heart at this time.

Xia Chan, this strange and familiar name, seems to have truly integrated into his life today.

Even though he was an invincible immortal emperor in the last life.

But in this life, he is a son of man after all.

"Mother is not dead!"

After taking a slight breath, Xiao Changfeng spoke.

These words were like thunder in a clear sky. Zhou Zhenghao suddenly raised his head and stared at Xiao Changfeng with a look of shock.

"Miss is not dead? Is she still alive?"

Zhou Zhenghao's breathing became rapid, and his sadness was swept away and turned into hope.

Xiao Changfeng did not hide anything and spoke out what the eldest prince said during the martial arts examination.

"I think my mother should be imprisoned somewhere. I am holding this elixir auction and issuing the master order to get help to find the place where my mother is imprisoned!"

Xiao Changfeng spoke in a deep voice and told Zhou Zhenghao the true purpose of this elixir auction.

"We are willing to do our best and work with His Highness to rescue the young lady!"

At this moment, Zhou Zhenghao knelt on his knees, making a loud noise and his eyes were firm.

He is a loyal man.

It's just that his loyalty is not to His Majesty the Dawu Dynasty.

It was Xia Chan who he had always called young lady.

"What is the origin of mother's family?"

suddenly.

Xiao Changfeng spoke.

In Zhou Zhenghao's story, there is him, a mother, and a father.

But there is also a huge family.

My mother escaped from marriage.

as the Son of Man.

He wanted to know where his mother's family came from.

Because he had a premonition.

Sooner or later, I will have intersection with this family.

However, when faced with this problem, Zhou Zhenghao averted his eyes for the first time.

"That is a very big family, very, very big. The Dawu Dynasty needs to surrender in front of it!"

Zhou Zhenghao seemed not to want to talk about this issue.

But there was a hint of it in his mouth.

But it was enough to surprise Xiao Changfeng.

The Dawu Dynasty was already one of the great powers in the world.

However, my mother's family must submit to the Dawu Dynasty.

That's really big.

"After His Highness rescues the young lady, you should ask the young lady in person!"

Even Zhou Zhenghao did not dare to reveal the origin of this family easily.

Xiao Changfeng's heart sank.

But soon, I felt relieved again.

Even if this family is extremely powerful.

Even if there are many strong people in this family.

Even if this family dominates one side.

But, so what?

Even if I am against the whole world, I have nothing to fear!
