Chapter 8 The Family Affair That Must Be Done II
Night.
A carriage tried through the mountains and forests, and two men in black stepped down, opened the door, and a black cane poked out of it, followed by a white-haired old man.
The old man was dressed in a black dragon-patterned shirt and a black round hat, his face was engraved with the traces of time, and his eyes were full of inviolable seriousness and authority, which made people dare not laugh and talk casually in the range of these eyes, and some of them did not even dare to look directly.
The leader of the Zhaba tribe walked to the carriage, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "I don't know that the prime minister is coming, and I have missed the welcome, so please forgive me." ”
The prime minister glanced at him, but his eyes fell on the young man beside him, snorted lightly, ignored the leader of the Zhaba tribe, and walked in directly.
"Leader Zaba, why are you? What about your elder? Didn't he come? Or, is he indulging in the arms of a beautiful woman to enjoy life?" a young man in a white thin Sven and a silver robe walked over, as if jokingly.
The leader of the Zhaba tribe withdrew his hand indifferently, and said very politely: "Lord Feng, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I don't know what kind of wind is blowing from the Dongba tribe today? ”
"Naturally, it's the east wind. After Master Feng finished speaking, he smiled coldly in his heart.
The leader of the Zhaba tribe didn't care about the sarcasm of the man's words at all, and still looked polite and indifferent, and said: "Is it? That's really auspicious, no wonder, I heard a magpie calling early this morning." ”
"The wind will change direction, won't it? And it looks like it's winter and the magpies won't show up. After Lord Feng finished speaking, he smiled and said to the young man beside him: "This must be your son, what a talent." ”
Amir had never been praised like this, and he was a straw bag, so he couldn't understand the meaning of the words at all, so he scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "Hello, Lord Feng, I'm Amir." ”
"Hello, Prince Amir, it's a pleasure to meet you. Lord Feng was stunned, quickly reacted, and said calmly.
"Lord Feng, are you standing here?" reminded the leader of the Zaba tribe in a seeming joking.
"Thank you for reminding me, if you delay here for a long time, the Prime Minister will be angry. After saying that, Lord Feng and Amir nodded and walked inside.
The leader of the Zaba tribe patted Amir's shoulder, looked straight ahead, and said, "Amir, you are too nervous, this is not going to the battlefield, take it easy." ”
Amir's eyes flashed, he closed his eyes, and secretly took a deep breath, but he still couldn't help but tremble, and said, "But, Daddy, I'm so nervous." ”
The group quickly entered the main village, the prime minister sat on the main seat, Feng Yuanqing, the master of Feng, stood beside him, and the leader of the Zhaba tribe sat first on the right.
The leader of the Zhaba tribe said respectfully to the prime minister: "I received a letter from the prime minister a few days ago, saying that I want to come to the Zhaba tribe for a tour, and I only thank the prime minister on behalf of the tribe for his revisit. After speaking, he got up and bowed slightly.
"Elder Yuan is not here?" said the prime minister.
The leader of the Zhaba tribe was stunned and said, "Elder Yuan went out a few days ago, and I don't know when I will return. ”
"Oh, then, isn't it Elder Yuan who called the old man with that thing?" the prime minister looked at the leader of the Zaba tribe, his eyes sank, and he said without anger.
"No, no, how can I make my own decisions, and besides, how dare I offend the Prime Minister so much, that thing was personally sent to the Prime Minister by Elder Yuan, but it happened suddenly, and he left, otherwise, he would definitely come to greet you personally. ”
The prime minister was silent for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "No matter who called it, if you have anything, just say it, but, remember, only one thing is allowed." ”
"Please be merciful when the chief asks. Feng Yuanqing reminded in time on the side.
"Well, I'll be blunt, actually, ......"
After listening to his request, the prime minister's eyes flashed, and at the same time, he felt sad for himself and the friend he hadn't seen for a long time, but he didn't expect that he would become a person who oppressed people with power because of his former favors, and if his words were true, then his friend would be so unkind and unjust as he was!!
***
The butler went out of the study and went downstairs, and at the corner of the corridor, he unexpectedly ran into Ayula's subordinate.
The chief butler was stunned, gritted his teeth, and followed his subordinates to Ayula's room.
When he pushed the door open and entered, the servant stepped back and pulled the door open.
Ayula was resting on the sofa with her eyes closed, she looked tired, and her beautiful face had a faint dark circle.
Arjuna opened her eyes and saw him come in, smiled slightly, sat up, pointed to the opposite position, and motioned for him to sit down.
The big butler walked over, sat down, looked at her like this, and couldn't help but care: "You are tired?"
"Well, it's tiring. Ayuela's straightforwardness made the chief butler stunned for a while, choked for a long time, and then said hesitantly: "Then you can rest well." ”
"How's it going on with Nia?" Aryula made no secret of her tiredness, her voice a little hoarse.
"Ni-, Second Miss, I'll take care of it. ”
Ayula rubbed her head and said, "I just want to know, does the arrival of that adult this time have anything to do with Nia?"
"It's nothing, don't worry. The chief butler was silent for a while, and said, "Don't worry, I don't care about Niya less than you, I won't harm her, she is my daughter." ”
"Nia must not marry Amir, you know?" said Ayura's voice.
"Of course, madam, I understand that this is important, but are you still at ease with me? If Nia marries, everything we have done for ten years will be in vain. ”
"I don't care about that, I just care about Nia's lifelong happiness. Ayula said in grief that he had only power in his heart.
"Please trust me!"
The big butler got up and looked at Ayula a few times, the years didn't seem to have left a trace on her, she was as beautiful as she was at the beginning.
It's just that human feelings have changed!
With a silent sigh, the butler left the room.
Moments after he left, Ayula opened her eyes, and the glint in her eyes was too complex to be clear.
Ayula touched her own face that he was staring at just now, although she could still feel his gaze with her eyes closed, this unchanging face was pretended to be flattered by many envious and jealous women as a blessing from heaven, and it was also considered by many people to be the reason why the Dongba leader had always loved her, but she knew very well that it was not, because it was the most precious and the best if she couldn't get it.
Men, they are all cheap!
But this, she doesn't want, what she wants most, she can't get it in this life, she can only guard the second most important thing and continue to live like a walking corpse.
