Chapter 45: The Favorite Person
The entire banquet hall fell into dead silence, so quiet that the sound of everyone's rapid heartbeat could be heard clearly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, the dragon madness was not dumbfounded like the others, but frowned slightly and re-examined this Zhou City Lord.
Noble status, should be a person who speaks his word, but he casually overturns the decisions he makes, and at the same time violates the agreement with others, is it free and easy, or does he have the city in his heart? !
After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't see through it, he shook his head and sighed, muttering: "The human heart is unpredictable......"
At this time, an indignant word broke the silence in the palace: "City Lord Zhou, you are the lord of a city, how can you go back on your word." Moreover, when I go back, how will I explain to my father! ”
The person who spoke was none other than Wu Chengsheng, his tone was humble, but there was a strong sense of threat between the lines.
Everyone was slightly shocked, but they didn't expect that Wu Yuansheng would dare to threaten the city lord with his words.
Hearing this, the dragon madness gloated a little, and immediately used the spirit yuan power to shake away the slender jade hand held on his arm.
He picked up the wine bowl, took a small sip comfortably, then turned his face sideways, looked at Zhou Xiaotang coldly, and thought: You dare to calculate me, see how your father and daughter end.
However, Zhou Xiaotang didn't care about his gaze, he was still calm, eating the spirit fruit carefully.
On the throne of the palace, Zhou Yixiong's face did not change, as if he did not notice the threat in the other party's words, and laughed loudly: "In the world, who has not repented? The city lord will naturally explain to Ling Zun that the virtuous nephew does not have to worry. ”
"You... This ......"
These words were similar to scoundrels, and Wu Chengsheng was also speechless for a while.
Zhou Yixiong smiled slightly, and continued: "The little girl already has a favorite person, besides, the emotional matter is barely coming, and I ask the virtuous nephew to bear with me." ”
Hearing the "favorite person", everyone turned their heads to look at the dragon madness who was at the bottom of the left column, and their eyes were full of disdain.
Despised by everyone, Long Mad just sneered and smiled, not disapproving at all, and slowly sipped the wine in the bowl.
He had other plans in mind for this matter.
After learning the reason for the cancellation of the marriage contract, Wu Yuansheng couldn't help but look up and laugh, and said, "Haha...... Dragon mania? Cultivated as a shallow lost dog. Are you insulting the Wu family if you would rather marry Xiaotang to him than to marry me? ”
As soon as this remark came out, it caused a burst of laughter.
Xiaobai, who was gnawing on the leg of mutton, was stunned by the tiger, and said, "Little madness, do you want to kill him?" ”
However, the dragon remained silent, smiled and shook his head, and then poured a large bowl of wine with his head up.
He was watching, waiting.
"The dragon madness used the foundation building period to cultivate, and captured the four princes from the hands of the Jindan period monks, let me ask everyone here, who can do it?"
To everyone's surprise, the speaker turned out to be Long Tianao.
Even the dragon madness felt a little surprised, stunned for a moment, and secretly admired that this person was really weird.
After a slight groan, he smiled slightly, raised the wine bowl to salute Long Tianao, and then drank it all.
However, as soon as he put down the wine bowl, Wu Yuansheng's threatening voice came: "Dragon Mania, if you forcibly interfere in my marriage with Xiaotang, aren't you afraid of the wrath of my Wu family?" ”
Wu family?!
Speaking of the Wu family, Long Mad remembered Wu Ren, the initiator of his mother's immortal death.
The past was like fire, instantly igniting the hatred in my heart.
He stood up suddenly, raised his sword eyebrows, and asked coldly: "Do you know the housekeeper of the Long family of the Northern Qin Kingdom?" ”
"Wu De? I don't know. ”
His eyes were deep and piercing, and Wu Yuansheng was stunned, and his eyes were erratic when he spoke.
Sure enough, it's the Wu family!
Today, Long Mad finally learned Wu De's true identity, and he couldn't help but look up and laugh with a mixture of joy and sorrow.
The eerie laughter, as if coming from the Nine Hells, was filled with a cold aura, which seemed to penetrate into the soul and terrified everyone.
In the blink of an eye, the laughter stopped, and he regained his composure, and immediately sat back on the ground, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all.
At this moment, Long Tianao strode to the center and respectfully bowed his hand to leave: "The younger generation is not strong enough to drink, so I can only say goodbye first." Thank you City Lord Zhou for your hospitality, and I hope to forgive your sins! ”
Zhou Yixiong bowed slightly and returned the salute, and said with a smile: "The virtuous nephew doesn't have to be polite, I won't send it far." ”
Long Tianao gave up his hand again, and immediately turned to leave, looking quite anxious.
After putting down the wine bowl, Long Mad raised his head, glanced at Long Tianao who passed by a few days ago, and smiled knowingly.
He knew that Long Tianao left in a hurry to send the news back to the Long family as soon as possible.
After all, Wu De has been a housekeeper for decades and knows the situation of the Long family well, if he doesn't get rid of it as soon as possible, there will be endless troubles.
……
After a while.
Unexpectedly, until now, Wu Chengsheng still had hope, he was ruthless, stood up and arched his hand and said: "City Lord Zhou, if you can't marry Xiaotang in the future, the Wu family will be shameless to stay in Yunmo City anymore!" ”
When everyone heard this, they all shook their heads, thinking to themselves how he could even pull the entire Wu family up.
The dragon madness was also dumbfounded, with a rare hint of joy on his face, and he raised his head and poured down the wine.
Unintentionally glanced at it, and he felt a little surprised, because Zhou Xiaotang beside him had not spoken, and his face was not shocked, and he looked like he had nothing to do with himself.
Zhou Yixiong took a sip of the wine glass, and after a little thought, he said slowly: "Nephew of the Fallen Sheng, are you saying this on behalf of the entire Wu family?" ”
"Yes!"
Feeling that the other party's tone slowed down, Wu Chengsheng felt quite proud in his heart, thinking that his intimidation had an effect.
However, Zhou Yixiong's next words made him frightened: "This is very good, pass on the order of the city lord, within two days, the Wu family and others must all leave Yunmo City, otherwise they will be killed!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Wu Chengsheng suddenly collapsed to the ground, his face was pale and bloodless, and he was about to explain, but he was thrown out of the hall by the guards.
All the leaders present were stunned, and there was a trace of fear in their hearts, they never thought that the city lord of Zhou was so resolute and ruthless.
Seeing this scene, although the dragon madness remained silent, his heart was ecstatic, and he excitedly poured several bowls of wine one after another.
The City Lord's Mansion and the Wu family completely tore their faces, and from then on, they became enemies, which was exactly what he expected to see.
After dealing with everything, Zhou Yixiong was happy in his heart, raised his glass and said: "Everything is over, everyone should not be affected, drink as much as you like." The lord of this city toasts everyone. ”
"Thank you, City Lord!"
Everyone raised their glasses with both hands and drank them all.
"Hoo ......"
Long Mad also drank all the wine in the bowl, and after exhaling a sip of wine, he asked with a smile, "Zhou Xiaotang, why are you using me?" ”
The words were peaceful, but the slightest goodwill that had been built up before was gone.
Zhou Xiaotang had already recovered his cold appearance, and said emotionlessly: "Each other." ”
"Really?"
Long Mad was slightly surprised, thinking that she would find some high-sounding reason to cover up her argument, but she didn't expect to be so calm.
After thinking for a moment, his face changed, his clear eyes flashed with a strange light, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a wicked smile, and said, "Use me, what benefits will you give me?" ”
Looking at his appearance, Zhou Xiaotang panicked in his heart, the cold aura around his body disappeared in an instant, and his black jade-like eyes showed a look of horror, and said, "You... What are you going to do? ”
"Don't move, a lot of people are watching here!"
As he spoke, Long Mad looked hideous, rubbing his hands, and his body got closer and closer.
Zhou Xiaotang was so frightened that he was at a loss, and even his words trembled a little: "You... Don't mess around......"
Seeing that the noses of the two were about to touch, the masculine aura came to her face, and she could only close her eyes helplessly, afraid and shy.
"Humph!"
However, Long Mad's face suddenly became gloomy, Teng stood up, glanced at her, then sneered, reached out and grabbed Xiaobai, and walked straight out of the Yanxiong Hall without saying hello.
