Chapter 228: Xiao Zhuge sees his father-in-law
A group of men and horses rushed to the city lord's mansion, and the passers-by dispersed, and the city lord of the banished city frowned, rushed over, and rescued a person from under the horse's hooves at once, and knocked the horse to the ground with one palm. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The man who was sitting immediately swooped into the air and slowly landed, glaring angrily.
"Father-in-law, father-in-law, are you alright?" Xiao Zhuge flew over from the horse behind him.
"Humph! Take care of your brute and don't let it hurt anyone. The city lord said to Xiao Zhuge .
Xiao Zhuge glanced at the man with angry eyes: "If you don't retreat, you will be embarrassed, and you can afford to hurt my father-in-law?"
The man glanced at the horse he was riding on, kicked it hard, and the horse slowly stood up.
"Little Zhuge , what are you doing here?"
"Father-in-law, my father heard that you have not had a good rest recently, so he has prepared some good Lantian jade materials, which are of great benefit to the body." Xiao Zhuge said and waved his hand to let people move things in.
"Since your father asked you to come, let's go into the house and talk about it!"
"Okay, okay, father-in-law, please first." Xiao Zhuge smiled and made a gesture of inviting in, this guy always has a smile, as the so-called opening does not hit the smiling person, the city lord can only follow him.
The things that moved into the house can be said to have taken a lot of thought, a pair of Lantian ink jade pillows, a cold ice jade bed, a set of white jade tables and chairs, two pairs of jasper mirrors, five jade jars, thirty jade plates, and countless green jade ornaments......
"Virtuous nephew, your marriage with Zi Ling has not yet been decided, it is not good to give such a valuable thing, besides, it is not appropriate for you to call me father-in-law now, Zi Ling will be angry when he hears it, I don't care if I call it......" The city lord of Banished City smiled.
"Uncle, uncle, it's the little nephew who is abrupt, Zi Ling mentioned to me that I have to call my father-in-law in the future, I tried to practice for a long time, this is called getting used to it for a while, it makes you laugh, if you say that this jade has nothing to do with me." Xiao Zhuge paused.
He continued: "This is the jade that my father gave you, and I don't know much about the friendship between your old friends." Xiao Zhuge said that his eyes swept around, but he did not find the figure of Zi Ling.
The old housekeeper whispered to the city lord that Zi Ling had sneaked out of the house, and the city lord was stunned for a moment, quickly recovered his expression, and motioned for him to retreat.
"Why don't you see Sister Ziling, I have prepared some gifts for her here." Xiao Zhuge said.
"Ahem, that Uncle Zhang, you go to see if Ling'er is in the room, just say that a distinguished guest is coming." The lord of the city commanded.
"Yes, sir." The housekeeper stepped back, and Xiao Zhuge didn't ask much, picked up the teacup and drank tea.
After waiting for a long time to see Zi Ling, Xiao Zhuge opened his mouth and said, "Uncle, I heard that Zi Ling went out this time and found herbs to heal the people in the city?"
"Heard? Is this true? I didn't even know at all, this girl didn't see me after she came back, if you don't say that I really don't know about it, it is estimated that she is afraid that I will punish her, and deliberately spread the news, this girl is becoming more and more disagreeable. The lord slapped the table as he spoke.
"What about Uncle Zhang? Why haven't you seen Ling'er coming? If she passes through the door, she can't let her mess around like this, she must be more restrained. The city lord patted his head and himself to death one by one.
"Uncle, don't be angry, Sister Zi Ling is just a little naughty, ask her in a while to know if it's true, if we really find a way, we don't have to work hard to transport the Ice and Fire God Spring Water to Banish the City." Xiao Zhuge said.
Uncle Zhang walked in in a panic at this time, knelt down and said: "Master, the princess said that she was sunburned by the sun when she went out, and she had no face to see people, and now she is having a temper, and no one will see her, saying that she will not come out to see anyone until her skin is better in a few days."
"This! Look at it, I'm used to what she looks like, but it's just a little sunburned, and it's still stinky and beautiful, it seems that the virtuous nephew can't see Ziling today, as the so-called love between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight, another day you come I will let her dress up beautifully and come out to see you. ”
Xiao Zhuge was very unhappy in his heart, this old fox diverted the topic in three or two sentences, and did not let Zi Ling come out to explain the reason, it seems that the matter is really inseparable, and he can't ask an eyebrow here, so it is better to investigate secretly.
"In this case, uncle, you should take a good rest, don't move your body, I deliberately brought a thousand-year-old shouwu, you can make up for your body!" Xiao Zhuge said and got up to leave.
"Uncle Zhang, immediately notify the people, quickly find Ling'er, if Ling'er falls into the hands of the people of Ice and Fire City......" The city lord gestured at his neck, signaling to kill the people of Ice and Fire City.
"Okay, I'll go and prepare, sir, be careful yourself." Zhang Bo said.
"Don't worry, there is a stone lion here, even if the monks of the Tribulation Period come, they can't help me." The city lord waved his hand and asked everyone to go down and prepare.
Xiao Zhuge went out of the City Lord's Mansion and arrested a few ordinary people to enter the inn, only to know under this questioning that Zi Ling had really found a way to save the people in the city.
"Fooled, you go and inquire about me, see if Zi Ling is not in the mansion, I'm afraid that the old thing dog will jump off the wall in a hurry, and let Zi Ling escape from Banishment City first." Xiao Zhuge regretted it, he knew that he should have gone to see if Zi Ling was in the room just now.
Not long after, the spies came to report that Zi Ling had already left the city and was missing, and he went out alone, very anxious.
"Sure enough, I want to escape, Zi Ling, I see how you escape, out of Exile City is the realm of my Ice and Fire City." Xiao Zhuge crushed the teacup on the table.
"Young Master, are we still staying here?" The subordinate asked Xiao Zhuge .
"No, I want to catch Zi Ling, if I let that old guy know that he definitely wants to catch me, the same reason, let's withdraw first, and then do it when we get to our realm, don't fall for the plan of the praying mantis to catch cicadas and yellow finches." Xiao Zhuge commanded.
"The young master is wise, maybe Zi Ling is a bait, let's pretend to be completely ignorant and leave secretly."
"No, I want to make a big show, and I want to hire songs and dances, and I want people to know that I am swaggering to the City Lord's Mansion of the Banished City, and I left openly, so they don't dare to come openly if they want to arrest me." Xiao Zhuge said.
"Young master, wouldn't this be too dangerous, what if they jumped off the wall in a hurry?"
"Haha! That's right, I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of just in case, so I decided to let you pretend to be me and go back in a sedan chair, it's a good idea! After Xiao Zhuge finished speaking, the man's face turned blue.
"Okay, young master, I'll do it for you, I bet they won't dare to embarrass you." The man agreed, but he didn't know how many times he had scolded Xiao Zhuge in his heart.
"Without further ado, let's leave quickly." Xiao Zhuge got up and made arrangements.
The gongs and drums on the street were noisy, Xiao Zhuge swaggered, passing through the market, Su Xia watched the convoy pass by with a folding fan in her hand, she had already inquired that this was the team of Xiao Zhuge of Ice and Fire City's son.
