Chapter 173: Changing Faces
Win?
The battle of the feudal marquis was really won!
The first war was sealed, and since then, the fish has jumped into the dragon gate and gone straight to the clouds.
This demon commander from a remote town really did it!
Until Lu Ming was the only one standing alone in the ring, the onlookers were still in shock, unable to accept this result for a long time.
Although he was only the lowest seventh-rank martial marquis among the princes, how old was this person? Moreover, this was a symbol of status and status, which was of great significance, and it was a glory that all cultivators of the imperial dynasty could not ignore.
Those who do not have the title of prince and prince, when they see Lu Ming again, they also have to call Hou Ye. has a fief, real power, glory, and the strength of a feudal marquis who is out of the dust together, what are the regrets in such a life?
What's more, once you become a marquis, as long as you don't die, the title can be increased with the increase in strength.
In other words, after Lu Ming reaches the realm of the sixth grade, he will be the sixth-rank martial marquis, and the fifth-grade will be the fifth-grade martial marquis.
However, the four-rank king is another threshold. It is not so easy to be crowned king, and it takes a battle to be crowned in order to be crowned. Once crowned king, it is the real pinnacle of life, and you can even inherit the title and blessing future generations.
But even if it's just a feudal marquis, it's also very remarkable, not only to glorify the ancestors, but also to raise soldiers and medicine in the fief, and the fief can also be passed on to future generations.
Lu Ming also knows something about this, but he is a man who wants to be a martial emperor, and he was not interested in this before. If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to get the resources he needed as soon as possible and give Daoji a little bit of power, he wouldn't have acted so flamboyantly.
It wasn't until Zhuo Changkong, the superintendent, announced Lu Ming's victory on the spot that the people present recovered from the shock, some were happy and some were worried, and it was complicated and indescribable.
It stands to reason that the Demon Division of Yunkong Dao Town has a new seven-rank martial marquis, which is a great joy in the entire Yunkong Dao, and the people of the Dao Division should be the happiest.
However, most of the Daoist priests are not happy now, not only because Lu Ming is not from the Daoist Division, but also because he was not very happy with this new marquis before. Of course, there are also people who react extremely quickly -
"Haha...... Congratulations to Commander Lu for his victory in the First World War, and we have the honor of being a demon in Yunkong Dao Town. If the prince knows about it, he will definitely be very pleased. When Zhuo Changkong's words fell, Luo Yan suddenly stood up and laughed.
"Thank you Lord Luo for your love, it's just a fluke. Lu Ming faced Luo Yan and clenched his fists slightly, not being rude.
Several other hall masters also reacted, and while secretly scolding Luo Yan for being shameless, they got up to congratulate, but their expressions were difficult to understand, and there was always a sense of depression in their hearts. Lu Ming didn't bother to guess their thoughts, so he just hugged his fists one by one.
"Yunkong Dao Town Demon Division has walked out of a seven-rank martial marquis, which is really gratifying. At this time, an elegant middle-aged man stood up on the side of the Dao Ya and congratulated him with a smile, but he quickly changed his words and said loudly: "But I heard that a few days ago, the Dao Si also turned away this Lord Lu, not only is it true or false, but why?"
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and many people present were puzzled and began to discuss. Even Zhuo Changkong, the supervision envoy from the General Division, frowned slightly and looked at Luo Yan and the others.
"The affairs of the Demon Division, don't bother outsiders. Luo Yan and the others were speechless, but Su Luoyan sneered, and said: "Let's go back to the Daoist Division together, Master Zhuo, please also move to the Daoist Division." ”
"This guy has ill intentions, and he still wants to use me to suppress the Demon Suppression Division?" Lu Ming glanced at the middle-aged Dao Ya and remembered the other party's face.
He didn't think that this person was helping himself, saying such things at this time would only embarrass Dao Si, and also caused a greater gap between Lu Ming and Dao Si.
Although Lu Ming was dissatisfied with some people in the Dao Division, he would not kill everyone with a stick, at least he could see that there were still people among them who remained neutral.
In the final analysis, Lu Ming just wants to get what he wants, not to be the enemy of the entire Dao Division, and the best way to deal with it is to accept it when he sees it.
What extent do you want to gain an inch, to what extent? Do you want to provoke the king of Cangnan out before you stop? Lu Ming has not yet been conceited to this extent.
In the excited discussion of the onlookers, Lu Ming left the Yunkong Martial Arts with the people of the Dao Division, as for those who had been clamoring to fight for Shi Ran, they had already left in disgrace.
Jokes, they are at best just children of the family, and they have a little energy in Cloud Sky City, but if they provoke a promising Hou Ye, isn't that looking for death?
"This person, how does it look a little familiar?" On the way back, Liu Qingluo kept pondering, always feeling that Lu Ming gave her a sense of familiarity, but she was never able to connect with the acquaintances in her mind.
There was also Li Yunqiu, who was following behind Yun Qinggu, the master of the Chuan Gong Hall, who was a little absent-minded and sad, and wanted to get close to Lu Ming several times and return those golden leaves. By the way, explain again, it wasn't that he didn't help before, it was the hall master who ordered Lu Ming to be snubbed.
"This black cauldron can't be carried. Yun Qinggu was beside him, Li Yunqiu could only give up for the time being, and find an opportunity to explain it clearly afterwards.
As for Zhong Qianzhong, who was beside Luo Yan, he was very calm, as if he didn't know Lu Ming at all. After working hard in officialdom for many years, Zhong Qianzhong knew that he couldn't do anything now, so he could only bury the gossip and 'slotting' in his heart.
Everyone soon returned to the Demon Division, and Luo Yan was almost about to take Lu Ming's hand and enter the door together.
If Su Luoyan hadn't secretly reminded him to make a face, Luo Yan would have been able to snub the superintendent Zhuo Changkong.
"Regarding the matter of sealing the marquis, I need to agree with this Lord Lu, please ask Lord Luo to prepare a secluded place for us. Zhuo Changkong felt the strange atmosphere, but he didn't speak until he entered the Demon Suppression Division.
"This is natural, Lord Zhuo, please come to the side hall, I have ordered someone to prepare refreshments. Luo Yan said with a smile, after personally sending Lu Ming and Zhuo Changkong to the side hall, he did not forget to remind Lu Ming enthusiastically: "Fenghou is a big deal, ask Lord Zhuo for advice, you won't suffer." ”
Lu Ming hugged his fist at Luo Yan, he found that he really couldn't see through this deputy commander of the Dao Division, and he didn't even know whether the other party was friend or foe now.
"It's all an old fox in officialdom, and the ability to steer the rudder when the wind is really out of reach, I still don't guess. Lu Ming thought a little weakly.
"Don't you feel very uncomfortable, before and after the sealing of the marquis, the treatment is very different?" When Luo Yan left, Zhuo Changkong, who had already sat down, suddenly laughed, with a little teasing.
Lu Ming said secretly in his heart: "It's not just a world of difference, I feel that everyone is changing their faces." ”
However, he was not so familiar with the Inspector, so he just said respectfully, "Please also ask your lord to give me advice." ”
"The officialdom of the Demon Suppression Division, although it is not as deceitful as the civil officials, everyone is not a pure martial artist. It's good that you can take it when you see it. Moreover, after the marquis, your world will be very different, there will be a lot less intrigue and more pure. ”
