Faced with the question of the Luo family's heroic little girl, Xiang Yu naturally could not tell him that it was Li Er who asked him to come.
If word got out, not only would Luo Yi become even more arrogant, but Hou Junji and Zhang Liang would also become estranged from Li Er, chilling the hearts of their old subordinates.
Therefore, he could only rely on himself to deal with the Luo Residence's rescue this time.
Li Er would not provide any help, let alone admit that he had sent him.
"Ahem, in fact, most of the people in the Heavenly Policy Manor are good people. Look at Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Xu Maogong, and the others. Didn't they also go to save Wei Zheng's family?”Xiang Yu's thoughts raced as she hurriedly defended her intentions.
Although this fifteen or sixteen-year-old beautiful girl was highly skilled in martial arts, she was still at an innocent age. Xiang Yu's words made her unable to refute.
However, when she thought of the grudge between her grandfather and the Heavenly Policy Manor, she hesitated.
At this moment, a middle-aged guard whispered to Luo Yiyi.
"Did he really kill all those bad guys outside?”A trace of surprise flashed through the young girl's red phoenix eyes."It seems that this person is not here to help the wicked.”
Although the girl was somewhat certain, she still asked,"Hey, why do you want to protect my Luo residence? Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, and the rest protected Wei Zheng because they were old friends of the Tile Gang Village. Why did you stand up for my Luo Residence?”
Xiang Yu did not expect this little girl to ask such a question. She scratched her head and braced herself."My…family is also old friends with your residence.”
The beautiful girl obviously didn't believe him.""Humph, liar, I've never heard my grandfather say that my Luo Manor has an old friend with the Heavenly Policy Manor.”
Who said that fifteen or sixteen year old girls were the easiest to fool? This little girl in front of him was simply a little fox.
She looked innocent and innocent, but she was actually a clever little girl.
"If I didn't have any old friends, why would I risk offending three of my colleagues to help your family?”Xiang Yu threw the question back to the other party. In order to prevent her from continuing to ask, he hurriedly said,"I heard from my father that it was a friendship between my ancestor and your great-ancestor.”
The little girl had the temperament of a child after all. Xiang Yu's words immediately made her not know how to respond.
The kindness of the ancestors, how long ago was that?
"Since you're an old friend, why haven't I seen you come to our Luo residence before?”The beautiful girl thought about it and threw out the last question.
Xiang Yu seemed to have been prepared for this question."Firstly, the Luo residence is a royal residence. His Majesty personally conferred the title of King of a different surname. Countless noble families visit every day. How can our Xiang family, a small family, dare to casually acknowledge relatives?”
"Moreover, we belonged to different camps at that time. Your grandfather was the Crown Prince's trusted aide, and my father was the general of the Heavenly Policy Manor.”
"Now that your Luo Residence is about to face such a great calamity, how can my Xiang Clan stand idly by and watch an old friend of mine be exterminated?。”
Xiang Yu's big talk was so loud and powerful that the little girl was stunned.
Just as he had said, if he wasn't an old friend, why would he risk offending Hou Junji and the other three Great Generals to protect the Luo Clan?
"Since the crisis has been temporarily resolved, I will take my leave first.”Xiang Yu knew that he could not stay here any longer. Otherwise, if this little girl continued to ask, he would not know how to cover up this mess.
Moreover, the guards of the Luo Residence were all valiant warriors who could fight against ten people at once. As long as the elite army of the Great Tang did not come to encircle the Luo Residence, they would be safe for the time being.
Xiang Yu once again looked at the beautiful young lady and then cupped his hands.""Lady Luo, farewell."
Seeing that he was about to leave, the beautiful girl was at a loss.
Other people had disregarded their safety and helped him so much. If he left just like that, it would seem that the Luo residence did not understand the ways of the world. However, if she asked him to stay, how could this beautiful girl with a tender face say such a thing?
At this moment, a tall and strong woman walked out and bowed to the young girl. She said,""Wan An, the young master of the Xiang family. My ancestor has invited you.”
"Ancestor?" Xiangyu said in surprise.
"She's…my great-grandmother." The beautiful girl was also surprised, but she patiently explained.
Xiang Yu scratched her head. This…was getting out of hand. He had just said that it was a friendship from his great-grandfather's generation. He had thought that the dead would not be able to testify. Who knew that the Luo Residence actually hid an ancestor of a great-ancestor.
"Ahem, alright."
Xiang Yu knew that she could not hide this time. Since he was here to recognize the old man, how could he leave without seeing the old man?
"A lie needs a hundred lies to cover it up.”
Soon after, under the lead of the tall and sturdy woman, Xiang Yu quickly arrived at the meeting hall in the back hall.
In the meeting hall, regardless of gender or age, more than a hundred Luo clansmen were fully armed. Each of their expressions contained a chilling courage and determination.
Xiang Yu now understood that even if she hadn't come, Hou Junji's private troops would have had a hard time breaking into the hall.
There was not a single sound in the hall of a hundred people. The atmosphere was solemn and solemn.
In the main seat of the meeting hall, a silver-haired old woman was sitting majestically with a dragon-headed walking stick in her hand.
Although time had taken away her beauty and elegance, it had left behind a pair of eyes that could see through the world, as well as a far-sighted and exquisite heart.
"Junior Xiangyu greets Old Madam." Xiangyu's expression was indifferent as she bowed slightly to the old madam.
The old lady's dignified expression revealed a rare smile.""Since you're the descendant of an old friend, there's no need to be so polite. Child, come here and let great-grandmother see you.”
Xiangyu laughed bitterly in her heart,'Oh no, this Young Master has another great-grandmother now.'
However, since it had come to this, he could only brace himself and walk over, squeezing out a smile.
The silver-haired old lady looked at him and held his hand. Her expression was filled with kindness and excitement."You, you really look like your great-grandfather. Back then, your great-grandfather was the captain of my old man's personal guards, and his Xiang Clan Spear Technique was superb…At that time, your great-grandfather was shot blind in one eye while protecting my old man…"
The old madam seemed to have fallen into a long memory. She nagged and talked non-stop. When she reached the emotional part, she even shed a few lines of turbid tears.
The old and young people of the Luo clan in the hall couldn't stop sighing.
But…Xiang Yu couldn't stop cursing in her heart…This…is also possible…
This old madam looked to be in her eighties or nineties. Why was she lying through her teeth? Captain of the personal guards, and he had mastered the Xiang Clan's Spear Technique…
Shameless, shameless old lady, lying without a draft…
"I didn't expect that after so many years, I would still be able to see Blind Xiang's descendant…Child, why didn't you and your father come to see me all these years?”
"There aren't many people left in the capital after my old man's generation…The heavens have finally opened their eyes and allowed me to see the descendant of an old friend before I died.”
As the old madam spoke, she could not help but wipe her tears."Fei 'er, Yi' er, hurry up and meet your brother.”
