The city lord's birthday banquet?

Dongfang Shuo was stunned for a moment.

Although the head of the Cao family is only a promise, he should not be a person who has never seen the world, right?

A little city lord's birthday banquet, where is it his turn to Dongfang Shuo to attend in person?

Unless, in this Xue City Lord's birthday banquet, there is no cave.

Of course, that kind of thing, Dongfang Shuo is too lazy to mix, and if he can, he won't muddy the water.

"Definitely. ”

Dongfang Shuo shook his head, and then moved his chopsticks to pick up some vegetables.

At noon, although he was not hungry, the aroma in front of him made him can't help but move his chopsticks.

As the saying goes, even the emperor Lao Tzu prefers folk snacks.

What's more, although Dongfang Shuo was born in the Dongfang family, he didn't eat any delicacies from the mountains and seas very seriously, and basically stayed in the Tiandou Sect after he was eight years old.

"Isn't it?"

The head of the Cao family was stunned for a moment, and then immediately laughed and said, "In this way, it is a contemptible mistake, young master, forgive me." After finishing speaking, he immediately opened the subject, "However, Young Master Dongfang can come here, that is the honor of the many forces in my Inch City. I don't know, when did the young master come, do you have a place to live?"

"Accommodation, not yet. ”

"In this case, if the young master doesn't dislike it, I'll send someone to prepare a separate courtyard for the young master in the cold house, I don't know what the young master thinks?"

"Can you disturb the head of the Cao family?"

While speaking, Dongfang Shuo still did not forget to move his chopsticks.

When the head of the Cao family heard this, he immediately got up, bent over and said: "Young Master Dongfang is tormenting my Cao family, if Young Master Dongfang is willing to live in a humble house, my family will only feel honored, and it will shine." ”

"Polite words are avoided, eat. Dongfang Shuo fiddled with his chopsticks and said, "Eat and drink well, just like in your own home." ”

After that, he continued to move his chopsticks and feast.

Seeing him like this, the head of the Cao family was stunned, and then after ordering someone to go down to do something, he sat down with a smile.

There wasn't much talk after that, and it was basically just a short conversation for some parents.

"Speaking of which, Master Cao, I have a reluctant request here. After chatting so much, Dongfang Shuo also felt that the time was almost up, so he said.

When the head of the Cao family heard this, he immediately got up and arched his hand: "What do you mean by being reluctant? What an honor it is for my Cao family to be able to do things for Young Master Dongfang? Young Master Dongfang has any orders, but it doesn't hurt to say that it doesn't matter, my Cao family will definitely be ruined." ”

Dongfang Shuo smiled and said, "The head of the Cao family doesn't have to be so excited all the time, there's no need to stand up and talk at every turn, you sit down." After he sat down, Dongfang Shuo continued, "Actually, it's not a big deal, and it can't be done." I just want the head of the Cao family to send a few people out to keep an eye on the courtyard for me. ”

"Yard?"

The head of the Cao family was stunned for a moment and asked, "But the courtyard in the city?"

"Exactly. ”

"Come on, bring me the map of Cunfang City. The head of the Cao family immediately ordered.

After a while, a huge map was spread out on the ground in front of Dongfang Shuo, and almost the entire inch square city was copied on it. Of course, the exception is the City Lord's Mansion.

"Young Master Dongfang, please command, which courtyard is it?" said the head of the Cao family, "As long as it is on this map, my Cao family can stare at you to death." ”

After Dongfang Shuo glanced at the map in front of him, he picked it up casually and threw the chopsticks in his hand.

After the parabola, the chopsticks hit the ground vertically, and they just pierced a place on the map and slammed straight to the ground.

"Here?"

The head of the Cao family looked fixedly, and then asked.

Dongfang Shuo said: "In this courtyard, there are two people living in the mortal stage, one in the mortal fetal stage, and the other in the immortal root stage. Questions?"

When his gaze fell on the head of the Cao family, the expression of the head of the Cao family also moved slightly, and there was a bit of deep meaning in his eyes.

"Young Master Dongfang already knows, who lives in this courtyard?"

Dongfang Shuo was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It seems that the head of the Cao family also knows?"

Immediately, the head of the Cao family got up and arched his hand: "Knowing is knowing, but sometimes, you still have to learn to pretend to be deaf and dumb, please don't blame the young master of the East." ”

"Hehe, this kind of thing is deserved, what do I blame you for?" Dongfang Shuo stirred a plate of dishes in front of him with another chopstick, and said, "And I just said it, don't stand up without moving, sit back." ”

The head of the Cao family nodded, and sat back again.

Afterwards, the head of the Cao family said: "In that case, I may know why the young master of the East came here. ”

"No, you don't know. ”

Dongfang Shuo shook his head with a smile, obviously knowing what was going on in the head of the Cao family, so he said, "I want your Cao family to keep an eye on them, but don't let them find out, and don't act rashly." ”

"This ...... Be. ”

Although he was puzzled, the head of the Cao family still agreed.

It's better not to know what you shouldn't know.

"When they left the yard, they followed as much as they could, and then told me all the people they came into contact with day by day. Dongfang Shuo said, "You are a force rooted here, you should be far more familiar with Cunfang City than them, it should be easy to spy on them without being detected, right?"

"That's nature. ”

The head of the Cao family arrived, "I will not disgrace my mission." ”

"It's not a mission, it's too grand. Dongfang said, "Okay, eat the vegetables." ”

As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the house.

When Dongfang Shuo turned his head to look, he vaguely felt a breath and was approaching this side.

The man didn't speak, and without even waiting for an announcement, he pushed the door outside the house and walked in.

But it seemed that he noticed Dongfang Shuo's existence when he entered the room, and after a seemingly casual glance, he bowed his head and knelt down.

"Master, the matter is done. ”

The man said.

The head of the Cao family suddenly showed anger on his face, and he slapped the case: "Didn't you see that I was receiving distinguished guests, there are really no rules at all! Someone, give me ......"

Such a posture is like a heavy punishment.

Seeing this, Dongfang Shuo got up with a smile, stopped and said: "Master Cao, forget it, the subordinate is the subordinate after all, and he has not done anything wrong, there is no need to be so harsh." I have already eaten and drunk enough, and since it seems that the head of the Cao family still has business to do, I will not bother, so I will ask the head of the family to send someone to take me to the residence. ”

When he said this, he naturally saw the inexplicable nervous look of the head of the Cao family, obviously there was something hidden in the Cao family that could not be known to outsiders.

However, Dongfang Shuo is not a gossip maniac, he also knows how to accept it when he sees it, and it is enough to clean up the pair of grandchildren before, and there is no need to embarrass a Cao family's descendants at this time.

"You idiot, why don't you thank Young Master Dongfang for his magnanimity?" said the head of the Cao family, pointing to the people under the hall.

Seeing this, the man hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him.

Dongfang Shuo also smiled, uncommittal, and then, under the leadership of a middle-aged housekeeper, he left the Cao family's main mansion.

After he left, the head of the Cao family breathed a sigh of relief.

"Get up, don't be so reckless next time. The Cao family said.

The man stood up and said, "Yes." ”

"So, you just said that it was done, and you brought it back?"

"Yes, it's in the storeroom right now. ”

"Okay, okay, take me to see it!"

"Yes. ”

......

Dongfang Shuo, who left the main house, walked through the corridor of Cao's mansion under the guidance of the housekeeper.

The flowers on both sides of the corridor are blooming, and the fragrance is overflowing, and it is also refreshing to walk in the meantime.

"Hey, butler, what is planted on the edge of this corridor of your Cao family, and why is it still in full bloom when it is almost autumn?" Dongfang Shuo asked.

"Back to the East, young master, this is called spring fall, which is the flower that blooms in summer and autumn and withers in winter and spring. ”

"Oh, there's still this plant under the sky?"

"Yes, after all, I'm just a layman, not as detached as the Dongfang family, so I just like the feeling of evergreen in the four seasons, so I made this kind of flower for viewing only, so that the young master of the East smiled. ”

"Vulgar, heh, not vulgar. Dongfang Shuo shook his head with a smile and said, "The withering glory of this flower is different, isn't it just going against the sky? ”

With that, he moved on.

And in just a moment, three teenagers came to the corridor.

They talked very happily, and they didn't even notice Dongfang Shuo and the housekeeper of the Cao family.

"Hey, let me tell you, this Zhao Yihuo is very awesome, in my opinion, it won't be long before even the position of the first person in Qingzhou is his!"

"I don't think so, but I heard that not long ago, Dongfang Shuoke has already built a five-fold foundation, at this speed, Qingzhou's first iron will definitely be his soon, where is the turn to get Zhao Yihuo?"

"But today's Chen Liu, the first person of the young generation in Qingzhou, is already the king of the first line, can Dongfang Shuo catch up?"

"It doesn't matter if you can catch up with it or not, Chen Liu is already twenty-eight years old, and he will not be the younger generation in two years, and Dongfang Shuo will definitely be the first in two years. ”

"No, the first must be Zhao Yihuo, I heard that Zhao Yihuo was very easy, and he defeated Qin Hao!"

In the conversation between you and me, the three teenagers are also getting closer and closer.

"What are you three talking nonsense, and what does it have to do with you who is the first?!" The butler stepped forward quickly and scolded, "Why don't you close your mouths and go to practice pupil arts?!"

When the three young men heard this, they were immediately silent, and after saluting and saying goodbye, they left in a hurry.

Dongfang Shuo looked at the figure of them leaving, and he also felt inexplicably funny.

"It's my Cao family who can't discipline me, and I ask Lord Dongfang not to be surprised. After they left, the housekeeper hurriedly turned around, like Dongfang Shuo to make a salute.

Dongfang Shuo smiled: "It's okay." ”

But then, the housekeeper said: "But their nonsense, you must not take it to heart, your talent is known to the world, he Zhao Yihuo is just a thief who does not enter the stream, he is a fart in front of you, you just let it go." ”

"Lead the way, don't say it. ”

The corners of Dongfang Shuo's mouth twitched, and he even had the urge to strangle him.
