Cui Xuanyu was speechless for a while, but she didn't expect that Meng Chen was here. She was overjoyed and quickly looked at her clothes, feeling quite nervous.
The twelve clan elders who were shouting to fight and kill also stopped and looked at Cui Xuanyu in surprise.
The smile on Cui Yingzhou's face that was so proud just now froze. Looking at Cui Xuanyu's appearance, that guy really might be her fiancé!
Cui Xuanyu tidied himself up and hurriedly walked out the door. When he was about to go out, he took a deep breath, patted his chest, calmed his breathing, and then walked lightly to the door.
The moment she saw Meng Chen, her eyes lit up and a smile appeared on her face, like a snow lotus blooming in winter, bright and moving.
However, this smile only lasted for a short while. Her eyes lowered slightly, and emotions of grievance, loss, and confusion floated on her delicate and soft face, and she trotted into Meng Chen's arms.
Meng Chen hugged her and glanced at the group of people behind her. This time he asked distressedly: "What's wrong? Why have you been wronged?"
Cui Xuanyu couldn't stop crying, and the warm liquid had soaked Meng Chen's chest.
She seemed to have found support, and said with a tearful voice: "Meng Chen, my father...he has lost contact in the imperial capital. You also know the purpose of his assassination. Now the four major families have cut off contact with their heads and sent The people in the imperial capital have never returned, and I really don’t know what to do.”
Meng Chen was shocked. Huang Wujin had indeed taken action, and there was a high probability that he would succeed. Everyone in the four major aristocratic families did not know if they were still alive...
Meng Chen's heart sank slightly. He didn't want to see Cui Xuanyu sad and didn't want her to lose her father.
"It's okay. Huang Wujin and Yun Niang probably won't kill them all. At least... at least your father will definitely be alive."
Cui Xuanyu became more and more worried and said in panic: "What should I do? Meng Chen, what should I do..."
She was probably under too much pressure during this period, so when she got a chance to talk, she couldn't help but talk.
Meng Chen patted her back gently, and his eyes fell on the group of old men from the Cui family. The struggle within the family was also very fierce.
At this moment, those old men stared at Meng Chen with a scrutinizing gaze.
Meng Chen met their gazes without any hesitation. As his eyes moved, he saw Cui Yingzhou hiding behind.
He pondered for a moment, but did not choose to pursue it, and whispered: "Xuanyu, don't cry now. If you have anything to do, find a suitable place to talk slowly."
After Cui Xuanyu vented her anger, she gradually calmed down. She took Meng Chen back to the Cui family meeting hall and asked someone to add a chair next to her. Then she talked about Cui Dongsheng's missing contact.
Before Cui Dongsheng went to Kyoto, a communication array was built to be able to contact the Cui family hundreds of millions of miles away at any time. However, after Cui Dongsheng said about the competition, they lost contact with Cui Dongsheng.
The Li family, the Zheng family, and the Wang family are in a similar situation. They have all lost contact. Moreover, the imperial city is now closed, and only people are allowed to enter, but no one is allowed to leave. They sent several waves of people but failed to spread any news.
Meng Chen fell into deep thought. He didn't know much about the family, but he had some feelings about Huang Wujin's terror.
Right now, he actually doesn't have any good options.
"What are you going to do?" Meng Chen asked.
Cui Xuanyu revealed the plan without hesitation. The four major families were really frightened this time, so they have formed an alliance. As soon as the news of the murder of the family head is confirmed, they will announce their separation from the Red Phoenix Immortal Dynasty and call for subordinates. The city was completely rebellious.
Meng Chen did not expect that they would be so bold, and said in a deep voice: "Are you really sure you can deal with the Empress? With her talent, it is not certain that she may enter the Mahayana realm now."
Meng Chen planned to be exaggerated to make them more vigilant and fearful. Otherwise, with the audacity of these aristocratic families, they might take action at any time. And what he said is not impossible. Huang Wujin has now completed her soul, and it is estimated that the fusion will be completed soon. By then, she may really be able to enter the Mahayana realm!
Cui Xuanyu didn't say anything, and a white-haired old man slammed the table and angrily shouted: "Impossible! Don't let others have ambitions and destroy your own prestige! Although the little emperor is extremely talented, he wants to enter the Mahayana, haha!"
His words were full of contempt and disdain, and he was obviously determined on this matter.
Seeing this, Meng Chen sneered: "You are so sure that the little emperor's insanity was not your fault, right?"
The smile on the old man's face suddenly solidified: "No, it's not! You don't need to know these, you just need to tell us about Kyoto now."
Meng Chen shook his head: "I left before the competition, so I don't know what happened."
"Trash! What else can you do! You are still trying to get your hands on me, the eldest daughter of the Cui family, are you worthy?"
Meng Chen was scolded, and his face darkened: "My father-in-law said he is worthy, then I will be worthy. Who do you think you are? How dare you point fingers at the son-in-law designated by your family master!"
The old man sneered disdainfully: "Haha, you just admit it when you say you approve it?"
Meng Chen took out a token and threw it into the old man's hand. It was given by Cui Dongsheng, saying it could prove his identity.
The moment the old man saw the token, his eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
"This... no matter what, an outsider has no right to dictate the affairs of the Cui family!"
Other clan elders also began to discuss. During the argument, only the words "outsider", "unauthorized", "confidential", etc. were clearly audible, as if they were deliberately trying to make Meng Chen know his position.
Cui Xuanyu looked sad. When he heard that Meng Chen had been recognized by his father, a hint of joy flashed across his face.
However, because his father's whereabouts were unknown, he was still very depressed.
Meng Chen pondered for a long time and said in a deep voice: "Forget it, I will go to Kyoto again and I will bring my father-in-law back."
The Cui family will not reveal all their details, and Meng Chen does not want to be associated with them, so he can only save Cui Dongsheng by himself!
Cui Xuanyu hesitated for a moment and then said firmly: "I want to go too, to the imperial capital!"
She knew Yunying, and Yunying was the empress's personal guard. If Cui Xuanyu went, his life would definitely be safe.
"In that case, let's go to Kyoto just for the two of us! But before that, you must not act rashly!" Meng Chen said with a serious expression.
Cui Xuanyu also joined in and started arranging things after she left. Although the elders of the wealthy clan were not very good at dealing with her, they could only hand over the Cui family to him at the moment. However, she also asked the elders of the three clans and the fourth clan who were close to her to The auxiliary clan elders can be regarded as a check and balance to the big clan elders.
After doing all this, Cui Xuanyu immediately packed up his things and took Meng Chen to the Cui family and the teleportation field platform in Kyoto.
Now that Kyoto is blocked, the teleportation field platform can only teleport them to places thousands of miles outside Kyoto, which is enough.
