Chapter 174: Selling Yourself
"Ha," but Liangyu smiled, put the sword into the sheath, and raised her hand to signal her to sit at the bamboo table where the tea had already been set and waiting for her to come, "What, is Miss Su's worth worth these invitations?"
"If it weren't for the great luck when I was a child and worshiped the immortal road, not to mention the invitation of the World Association, I wouldn't even be as good as this cup of tea in front of me. Su Zi took a sip of tea while laughing, Tianxing Sect is worthy of being one of the four sects, even the tea is excellent, the aura is tangy, the entrance is clear, and the aftertaste is endless.
Noncommittal to this sentence, but Liangyu casually added another cup for her, but it was a small action of pouring tea, but it was chic and natural for him to do, Su Zi saw it in her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, sure enough, the impressions were all preconceived, even if she had already understood intellectually that this person had an extraordinary background and a promising future, but she still had in her mind the spirit of the young man who refused to bow his head in front of the dark king.
"That's why you have sent a message to me to refuse this marriage. Seeing that Su Zi didn't plan to speak first, but Liangyu waited for a while, and then said this sentence, not a question, but a statement, no contempt, no anger, just mentioned this matter as usual, with a general tone of "good weather".
Sure enough, this matter was not brought up by Qi Liangyu at all, Ye Yu had this idea, so he responded casually, she wanted to refuse, and he also had a complete discussion, but it just depends on how the chips on both sides are pressed, Su Zi held the fingers of the teacup and subconsciously took it, to put it mildly, she owed him a request as early as four years ago and has not fulfilled it yet, and this invitation can be regarded as a blessing to him, I really want to talk about it. She really doesn't have a conditional position, but ...... Either way, give it a try.
"If this family affair is done. Jing and Qiong are interconnected, and the dynasty benefits. Presumably, it can temporarily deter the faint capital and the heavenly capital that is secretly observing, but in addition, what good can it do to you and me? But the new upstart family has entered Ye Xuan's eyes, but at the same time, he has made many enemies among the old faction of the imperial capital, if you follow Ye Xuan's arrangement to marry me at this time, the family will be completely separated from the old faction, although you can get all the trust of Ye Xuan, but Xing also obeys him. If you really plan to be such a 'loyal minister', you won't say that to the life thief at all when you were in the Dragon Cave in Danzhou. ”
Listening to Su Zi's analysis, but Liangyu was not in a hurry to express her position, she just raised her eyebrows and looked at her funny, as if her serious appearance was very fresh. "How is it not a good thing for you? But the family is not a first-class family now, but within fifty years, this surname will definitely become the first surname under the surname of Southern Ye, is it not worth considering at all? You're actually upset with me?"
What kind of romance novel unfolding is this...... Su Zi looked at Qi Liangyu who was waiting for her to answer speechlessly, and replied very honestly: "Everyone has their own ambitions, and the Gaomen Mansion has never been my consideration, let alone such a marriage that is completely based on the needs of the alliance. Whether it is rational analysis or human nature, as long as it is not an unshirkable responsibility, no girl is willing to be a transaction and a link. Even if a hostage is married, I don't think I can compare to Ye Yu's scheming. If any Heavenly Dynasty wants to break up with Dengxian Dao, I will be the first victim. Again. Regarding your question......" Su Zi paused for a second, "I can't talk about any dissatisfaction or liking, being a friend is strong enough and reliable enough, but if one day becomes an opponent, I'm afraid it will be just as terrible." ”
The power of the Dark King and the blood of the Emperor River...... Although the curse of undying may seem ethereal, she can't completely forget it.
"Ha, I see. But Liangyu pointed his finger on the bamboo table, with a slight smile, "The reasons you said are indeed worth considering, but ...... What you didn't mention was that you didn't want to offend the imperial capital, and you came to me because you wanted me to open this mouth to refuse marriage. ”
This is too straightforward, but Su Zi is more familiar with Qi Liangyu who shows such a side, and his face is not blushing, "When I owe you again, if there is a dispatch in the future, I will never shirk it." ”
"Okay, I remember this, since we are friends now, it is not difficult for me to speak, but the matter of ascending to the immortal path of the Chaodu Alliance will not change, and the marriage will be abandoned, and there will be side things, so you had better prepare in advance. The moment Liangyu simply responded, Su Zi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but the second half of his sentence made her frown again.
"Why did this capital lord just hold me and let me go? I really don't know when I became so famous......" Although she thinks that her strength is good, her reputation will spread in the mountains of no return at most, after all, she has not even participated in the martial arts cultivation list, and there are conditions for the youth to become famous, she is not good enough to break through the sky, let alone have a commendable net worth background, if Ye Yu just stared at her at a glance four years ago, it is really a bit unbelievable.
However, for this question, Qi Liangyu obviously knows the key better than her, "Isn't it strange? The last time you searched the Soul Tomb, this time the Calamity Dragon Grotto, didn't you come and go freely and unharmed?"
Su Zi was stunned for a moment, and then a little speechless, "The words are too exaggerated, and you can come and go freely without injury...... And didn't they all follow you these two times, young master?"
"So, if you can compare with me, why should you be arrogant?" said this sentence very seriously.
“…… I was speechless. Su Zi was really speechless.
"After the business is over, the first time you come to Tianxing Sect, do you want to visit?" Their conversation this time was quite effective, but it was just the time to drink two cups of tea, even if Yan Shu just had nothing to do and came to Tianxing Sect for a friendly meeting, it would not end so quickly, but Liangyu obviously knew this, so he took the opportunity to mention such a sentence.
"Forget it, there has been a lot of trouble in the past month because of this marriage, and if I appear with you in Tianxing Sect at this time, it will only add to the trouble, I will go to find my uncle. After Su Zi finished speaking, he was about to get up and leave, but was stopped by Qi Liangyu who suddenly raised his hand.
"It's just the talk of some irrelevant people, if everything in this world should be so concerned. It's too tiring. The eight views of Tianxing are the crowns of the four sects, if you enter the mountain and do not see it. It's been a wasted trip. With that, he got up and led the way. "Let's go. ”
Looking at his back, Su Zi stood in place for a moment, then sighed and followed, "What you said is naturally good, but in the end, not everyone has the capital to be so arbitrary." ”
"Oh, I thought it was just an excuse," but Liangyu didn't look back, "If it's strong enough to stand at the top, why bother with the idea of ants under your feet." The weak will be worried, because in their hearts, they are always hinting to themselves that they can never become strong. ”
Su Zi was shocked, such a thought......
“…… Well, this is a mockery of my lack of ambition?Okay, let's go and see what your Eight Celestial Visions are like!" She pressed down on a thought in her mind for the time being, and quickly caught up with Qi Liangyu's footsteps.
After Yan Shu said goodbye to the Taoist Master Guixian, what he saw when he went out was the scene of Su Zi and Qiliangyu coming together. He paused in a little surprise, but the expression under the mask was unknown, and when the two walked in, he smiled and nodded to Qi Liangyu. "I was tired but the son entertained Su Zi. ”
"The senior was polite. But Liang Yuli was thoughtful, and then he personally sent the two of them down the mountain, and Su Zi didn't think about how many onlookers he encountered along the way. It's really that the circle just now has already been seen enough, and now she has basically entered a state of breaking the can and falling.
Until after leaving the Tianxing Sect and returning home. Yan Shucai broke the silence that had been permeating several people just now. "Didn't go well?"
"No, it's going very well. But Liangyu promised to take the initiative to refuse the marriage to Lord Ye, I just have to wait for the result. In any case, the purpose of this trip can be regarded as a very successful achievement, and Su Zi said that she is still very satisfied.
"I see, that's good. Yan Shu smiled after hearing this, and didn't ask her how she finally appeared in the Tianxing Sect with Qi Liangyu, but suddenly asked another question, "Don't you want to get married?"
Su Zi was slightly stunned, and asked instead of answering, "Then do you want to marry a wife?"
"Hah, that's right. Yan Shu shook his head, "If fate comes, everything will naturally go its course." ”
"So I don't plan to think about this for the time being," Su Zi said, suddenly frowning, "But this time, the hidden information behind it is much more important than the marriage itself, and I can't figure out what Youdu is going to do now...... Since the last time I went to Danzhou with you, and then I went to Danzhou, I have encountered unusual things. ”
"For example?" Yan Shu looked at her.
"For example, the Red Blood Divine Tree, and the Sky Devouring Dragon. ”
After returning to the Mountain of No Return, Su Zi still returned to Xuanfeng directly with the wild goose, so the gossip that she went to Tianxing Sect to see her husband in an instant did not reach her ears, and it was not until she got up at home to study the notes that half a month later, Ren Pingsheng came to Xuanfeng in person and brought the explosive news she had been waiting for.
"Yunbo came and brought Lord Yedu's handwriting, but Liangyu has personally refused the family matter mentioned before, I heard that both of you have no intention of getting married, but ...... I am willing to serve as an official in the capital for five years to repay the good intentions of the lord of Yedu. ”
Su Zi's face, which was blown up by this message in an instant, immediately turned black, but this one cheated her again!
But the words have already been spoken, it is better to sell herself for five years than indefinitely, she forced her expression not to be too distorted and nodded to Ren Pingsheng, "...... This is indeed the case. ”
Ren Pingsheng's always peaceful gaze stayed on her face for an extra second, and then spoke: "That's fine, then prepare for a day and leave with Yunbo." ”
So fast? Su Zi couldn't bear to ask these three words, honestly said goodbye to Yan Shu, and then returned to Shufeng and explained the situation to Jiu Fengjun.
"Hmm. Jiu Fengjun didn't care about this, but paid more attention to another question, "How do you read the handbook?"
"It's so cluttered that I haven't figured it out yet. Su Zi's answer was extraordinarily honest.
"Five years. Jiu Fengjun looked at her and seemed to smile.
"Yes. ”
Time was pressing, and after saying goodbye to Jiu Fengjun, she only left a few letters and set off with Xiao Yunbo.
It's been four years...... Coming to the capital again. (To be continued......)
