Chapter 03: Don't Underestimate Me
"It's the lord of the city!"
A tall figure stepped off the horse, eight feet tall, sitting upright with facial features, and a rich black beard, this is Shangguan Murong's father, Shangguan Feng.
"Rong'er, why do you still like to mess around, when is it, don't leave with your father soon. ”
Shangguan Feng came to the door and stared at the shadow on the second floor.
At this time, Shangguan Murong was still thinking about what had just happened in his mind, so he obediently jumped down the floor and followed Shangguan Feng to leave this place.
"What do you think, the situation is very unfavorable for us during this time, and we must not be careless at this time. ”
Shangguan Feng said to Shangguan Murong who was absent-minded on the side, and then commanded several maids to accompany Shangguan Murong to get into the carriage before leaving here.
......
In a courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion, before Shangguan Feng came back, there were already several people sitting leisurely on wooden chairs, drinking tea.
One had a relatively round face, an extremely fat body, like a leather ball, and no black beard that symbolized male maturity, and even a single hair remained.
This person is the ruler of one of the three major cities of the Shen family, the city lord of Ziyang City, with heavy troops, and his relationship with Shangguan Feng can be regarded as a superficial friend.
The other was darker, with abundant black hair, a horse-like face, and some sunken cheeks.
This person is the ruler of one of the three major cities of the Shen family, the city lord of Black Fox City, and his relationship with the city lord of Ziyang is relatively iron, but he is not bad with Shangguan Feng.
The two were chatting at this time, and the topic of conversation was the most important thing they came to Qingyun City today - how to choose.
Now the situation in the kingdom is that the old emperor of the Shen family is not long in life, and he just held a 100th birthday banquet a few days ago.
There are two sons under the knees, and it is rumored that the eldest prince can be literate and martial, and has a stable personality, while the second prince looks like a sick son all day long.
Therefore, as the more important figures of the Shen family, they naturally defected directly to the eldest prince, even if the eldest prince was not as perfect as rumored.
What the emperor needs most is ruthlessness, and the great prince has done this very well.
However, Shangguan Feng is a relatively stubborn existence, and the seizure of the throne has already begun, but until now he has not made any position clear.
As they already support the eldest prince, they naturally have to try to persuade that as long as the three cities are united, the throne of the eldest prince will naturally be captured.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please forgive me for being late. ”
Shangguan Feng walked in with Shangguan Murong from the entrance of the courtyard, came to the remaining wooden chair, and picked up the warm tea and sipped it gently.
"Qingyun City Lord doesn't need to be so polite, after all, they are all family. ”
The Purple Yang City Lord said without hesitation.
Shangguan Murong listened to the words, obviously understanding the intention of bringing her back.
Isn't it just to deal with these two uneasy and well-meaning weasels and send them away, as for other things, they can be delayed.
"Family?"
Shangguan Murong lowered her head, skimming her flat belly and Shangguan Feng's majestic body, and finally stopped at the round belly of the Ziyang City Lord.
"Sure enough, he came out of the barracks, and his personality is no different from your father's. ”
Although the Ziyang City Lord's face darkened, he had to hold back when he thought of business.
"That is, my Shangguan family is a strong person again, and feminine never disdains it. ”
Shangguan Murong didn't care about these complimentary words, and continued to mock.
"Qingyun City Lord, let's talk about business. ”
The Black Fox City Lord's face was also a little ugly, and he had an understanding of Shangguan Murong's ability to point out Sang and scold Huai.
"Good. ”
Shangguan Feng, who acted as a good person, naturally nodded in agreement, and Shangguan Murong did not continue to make things difficult.
"This is all my own people, I will let it go, now the situation is extremely unoptimistic, there are three clans outside, and there is a dispute inside, presumably Brother Qingyun does not want to see the day when the Shen family perishes, right? ”
Ziyang City Lord Xiao Luo took a sip of tea and said to Shangguan Feng.
"The so-called internal and external troubles are nothing more than a competition for favor between you and others, otherwise there is no difference in our troops, just with those three clans, they dare to only take the country?"
Shangguan Murong said contemptuously, but Shangguan Feng quickly reprimanded loudly.
"Don't be rude!"
Shangguan Feng pretended to be angry, but he agreed with Shangguan Murong's statement from the bottom of his heart, over the years, the three cities have done their own thing, and they have not seen the Shen family destroyed.
"This ......"
As the city lord, how could they not hear it, and immediately their faces were ugly, and they stood up and shouted directly.
"It seems that now that the Qingyun City Lord is not in harmony, it is better for us to leave first. ”
The two were about to leave, and although Shangguan Feng tried his best to refuse, he was naturally very happy in his heart.
"Wait, give you a chance, if your subordinates can defeat me, I'll convince my father to agree with what you say, how about it?"
Shangguan Murong shouted, but Shangguan Feng was full of confusion, obviously he was gone, why did he still make such a fuss?
"This ......"
Hearing this, the Ziyang City Lord touched his chin and thought about it, but it was the Black Fox City Lord who agreed.
"Since we all agree, then please ask the Qingyun City Lord to prepare the venue, and I will prepare first. ”
The two of them didn't care about Shangguan Feng's desire to stop them, and hurriedly walked out of the courtyard.
"Father, I have thought carefully about the current situation, and it is true that as the two of them said, the eldest prince is a good choice, so there is no need to make too much trouble with them. ”
Shangguan Murong was the first to explain.
It's right to follow a capable person, since the prince is good, then follow him.
"Hey, I'm afraid you don't know, the second prince is probably not as simple as the folk rumors, and it is because of this that he has not made a decision. ”
He couldn't tell the situation, but he always felt that something was wrong, and it was better to be careful.
"Father, in fact, I am also here to test myself in this battle, not just joking. ”
Shangguan Murong said.
After hearing the old words, she had a goal, not to say much, at least to solve the difficulties in front of her.
"Well, in that case, then the support of the Father is. ”
When Shangguan Feng heard this, he felt a sense of pride that came from nowhere, and agreed magnificently.
......
In the special ring of the City Lord's Mansion, Shangguan Murong was wearing a red cloak and a domineering tiger helmet armor, standing straight, waiting for the battle to begin.
On the other side is a lightly armed man, who is a battle wizard jointly elected by the Black Fox City Lord and the Ziyang City Lord.
But seriously, neither of them was sure about him.
Shangguan Murong is notoriously ruthless in the military camp, and there must be a gap between the two.
Why did the Black Fox City Lord agree was actually very simple, he had already seen Shangguan Feng's hesitation, so he specially took out a poisonous powder to teach the people on the stage, and sprinkled it on Shangguan Murong's body at the right time.
As long as it is successful, it will not take a few days for Shangguan Feng to come to him to get the antidote, although it is a ruthless move, but it is also an extremely efficient method.
"Excuse me. ”
Shangguan Murong rubbed his hands, his fingers clicked, and then he threw a brutal punch.
He didn't dare to rush to pick it up without knowing the power, so he had to dodge sideways.
Shangguan Murong relied on his elbow to exert his strength and blasted towards him on the side.
His goal was not to win, so he was quickly ready to be beaten, but when she was repulsed, she had already raised her hand to sprinkle the poison powder onto the snow-white skin on Shangguan Murong's back shoulder.
"I'm not invincible. ”
The man immediately shouted half-crouched.
Although Shangguan Murong was still unsatisfied, he had to let him go to the stage.
"Strange, I've never seen such a bad ringman. ”
Shangguan Murong frowned, but the current situation could only be to watch the Black Fox City Lord and a group of people leave this place.
"Father, I feel a little strange, but I can't say it for a while. ”
Shangguan Murong took off his armor and said to Shangguan Feng.
"I think too, but forgive them and don't dare to do anything wrong, you go back and have a good rest first, as a father, you still need to deal with some affairs. ”
As the city lord, Shangguan Feng was very busy, and Shangguan Murong was also clear, so he nodded and returned to his residence.
