Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Many years ago, in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, a doctor opened a small pharmacy. He was kind and generous, and often provided free medical treatment and medicine to poor people who could not afford medical treatment. He was a great philanthropist in the eyes of countless people.

After his wife died in childbirth, he never remarried. He has a son and a daughter. The eldest daughter is a beautiful young lady, and the youngest son is smart and clever. The family of three lives in harmony.

But, accidents happen, and a fire late one night burned everything down.

His father died tragically in front of him, and his elder sister was kidnapped by criminals. The young child witnessed all of this with his own eyes, and his heart was filled with hatred. Later, he was adopted by the royal family's secret guard organization, and suffered a lot along the way...

"Wait a minute, arson?" Ning Zhiwei felt something was wrong as she listened, "Who did it? Could it be the remnants of the royal family of the previous dynasty?"

Xiao Linfeng was stunned, "Why do you think so?"

Ning Zhiwei felt that this operation was very familiar. "Isn't this what Su Haozhi usually does? If he takes a fancy to a child, he will kill the whole family and then pretend to be a good person to adopt the child. But you were adopted by the Royal Secret Guard Organization... uh, that shouldn't be the case, right?"

She suddenly realized, could it be that the royal family of Daqi learned this from the previous dynasty? They didn't learn the good things, but only the bad things? Or are all the royal family members so unkind?

Xiao Linfeng's face darkened. It's not that he didn't feel anything at all, but he didn't dare to think about it too deeply.

The secret guard organization adopts orphans who have no relatives to worry about and are focused. They are instilled with the idea from childhood that they are willing to sacrifice their own lives for the royal family and go through fire and water even if it means death.

Those who have relatives are not good enough, because they have concerns and are not loyal enough.

Ning Zhiwei couldn't help but ask, "You have shown a talent for martial arts since you were a child?"

Xiao Linfeng's face turned pale. He was very naughty when he was a child. He often fought with the kids nearby. He always won and was very famous in that area.

He felt indescribable pain in his heart, "So, it was me who caused the destruction of the family?"

Ning Zhiwei didn’t know whether it was true or not, but no matter what, the child was not wrong.

"Of course not. What could be the victim's fault? The ones who are wrong are those cruel and heartless people who treat the people of the world as straw dogs."

Xiao Linfeng's face became more and more uglier, his eyes were gloomy and heavy, as if hiding endless pain, making people feel depressed involuntarily.

Ning Zhiwei sighed softly, "Would you like to meet Shaoyao?"

Xiao Linfeng's emotions were on the verge of losing control, but he tried his best to suppress them. "There's no rush. Let her do her work first. I'll go and rest first."

Ning Zhiwei saw it, but didn't know what to say to comfort her. Some things she had to digest on her own.

"The inn across the street is owned by my family. The environment is pretty good and the food is good. Let's go stay there."

When Xiao Linfeng appeared the next day, he had returned to normal. The Jinyiwei commander who never showed his emotions was back.

Ning Zhiwei was having breakfast, Shaoyao was there too, and they both had a simple meal, consisting of baked steamed buns, millet porridge with braised beef, and two side dishes.

When Shaoyao saw Xiao Linfeng, she stood up subconsciously, her lips slightly parted, her expression nervous and at a loss. The young lady had already told her everything.

Xiao Linfeng looked at her face steadily, as if he wanted to see a familiar shadow on her face.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Ning Zhiwei took a sip of the millet porridge, as if she hadn't noticed anything, and introduced with a smile, "Peony, this is your uncle Xiao Linfeng."

Shaoyao's heart was in turmoil. It turned out that there was another blood relative in this world, her mother's sibling, her uncle.

She took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, and bowed deeply, "Peony greets uncle."

The word "uncle" made Xiao Linfeng's eyes warm, and countless past events came to his mind.

However, he didn't show any emotion on his face, and gave her a fake hand, "Get up, I will take care of you from now on, this is a meeting gift."

His tone was so calm. Shaoyao pursed her lips, her heart in a mess. Others burst into tears and cried bitterly when they recognized their relatives. Why were they so calm?

Doesn't he like her very much?

She glanced at him secretly, took the gift with both hands, and looked closely to see that it was the title deed to a five-story mansion in Beijing, not far from the Ning family's old house.

Her mood suddenly lifted, and her voice became sweeter, "Thank you, uncle."

The lady said, don't look at what a person says, but look at what he does.

Just listen to the saying "a small gift may convey great sentiment", don't take it too seriously. The importance of the gift represents how much the person values ​​you.

If a person is willing to spend money on you, it may not mean that he cares about you, but if he is reluctant to spend money on you, it means that he definitely does not care about you.

Housing prices in Beijing are so expensive, this five-story mansion is very valuable. The key is that this location is priceless and ordinary people cannot afford it.

Xiao Linfeng glanced at her, not quite understanding the girl's train of thought, "Don't call me uncle in the future."

Given his personality of keeping everything to himself, his emotions would naturally not show on the surface.

Shaoyao's smile fell, and her eyes were slightly red. It seemed that he really didn't like her! How could others like a child whose father was unknown?

Xiao Linfeng's indifferent voice came to my ears, "I have too many enemies, and it will implicate the people around me."

Ning Zhiwei immediately interrupted, "Okay, then just call him Sir Xiao. Safety is the most important thing."

Her heart was biased towards Shaoyao, who grew up with her.

Xiao Linfeng had done so many dirty things for the late emperor over the years and had offended so many people that it was probably impossible to count them all.

He is a martial arts expert, holds power, and is protected by experts, but Shaoyao is different, she only has a little bit of martial arts skills.

Besides, it is easy to dodge an open attack but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark.

"Peony, although you are not afraid of these things, you must also prevent others from using you as a weakness to threaten Lord Xiao."

When Shaoyao heard this, she nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll listen to you, young lady."

In fact, she was well protected and had always lived under the protection of the Ning family. Ning Zhiwei also protected her everywhere, so her mind was relatively simple.

Seeing this, Xiao Linfeng sighed silently and took something out from his arms, "This token is for you. If anything happens, you can summon the nearby Jinyiwei."

Shaoyao's eyes lit up, "Hey, Miss, do you have a token like this too? It's just a different color."

This piece is black, and the piece in Ning Zhiwei's hand is golden. "Yes, it was also given by Lord Xiao."

Shaoyao looked at Xiao Linfeng eagerly, her dark eyes full of curiosity, "Is there any difference?"

"Different levels mean different things can be done." Xiao Linfeng looked at Ning Zhiwei expressionlessly and changed the subject calmly, "I haven't had breakfast yet, can we have breakfast together?"

Ning Zhiwei was very considerate and said, "Bring a set of bowls and chopsticks to Master Xiao."

There was no touching family recognition scene, no out-of-control excitement, only a faint warmth.

Xiao Linfeng, who was used to eating delicacies from land and sea, was now eating simple meals. His heart was more peaceful than ever before. It felt really good to have a meal with his family again after many years.

I just hope that time like this will go slower and slower.

At this moment, a hurried sound of footsteps came closer and closer. "My Lord, the princess's wedding procession has arrived at the city. They asked you to go and greet them."
