Anti-theft chapters, updated and replaced, I hope you support the genuine.
"Iris, I've worked hard for you these days, with such a good daughter as you, Daddy really has a lot of less to worry about." Cheng Gang said with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes. "Daddy doesn't need to be polite, it's natural for a daughter to help daddy. What's more, Kite is also an idle person, and if my father doesn't let me do something, I'm really a little unaccustomed to it. ”
"Hahaha, it's the sweetest in your mouth! But it's good to help your father, but girls still have to get married when they are older. Do you remember the young master of Sword Forge Villa that I mentioned to you last time? The two of you were tired of playing together every day when you were young, and he will come to this martial arts conference. And you and Uncle Yin also want the two of you to get married, so that we can get close to each other. ”
Hearing Cheng Gang's words, Cheng Dui's originally smiling face suddenly turned pale, and she looked up at Cheng Gang with her fists clenched, trying to see a flaw in his expression. Who is Ke Cheng Gang? The castle master of Chengjiabao is the top master of today's martial arts. He was able to stand in such a place where fish and snakes were mixed, how could he be seen through by such a little girl as Cheng Dui?
No matter how good Cheng Dui is, she is still too tender in the face of Cheng Gang.
"Daddy! Kite said that she has no intention of getting married yet. Yuan'er and Mo'er are still young, I am their sister, and I have to take care of them, how can I marry someone else first? What's more, it's not that no one wants the kite, why is Dad in such a hurry to marry the kite? Is it that Daddy is annoying to kites? Hate kites? ”
Cheng Dui's first half of the sentence was a little blunt, and when she noticed Cheng Gang's suddenly darkened face, she hurriedly adjusted her tone and changed it to coquettishness. even ran to Cheng Gang's side and tugged on his sleeve with his hand, like a fool when he was a child. Just this moment made Cheng Gang laugh from the bottom of his heart. Although he objected to the relationship between Cheng Duiyuan and Li Yunxiang, Cheng Gang still loved Cheng Dui.
"Okay, okay, then let's put this matter aside for a while, and wait until the martial arts conference is over, and when the time comes, you ghost spirit spirit is not allowed to make excuses." Hearing Cheng Gang's relief, Cheng Dui's hanging heart finally relaxed. Sure enough, Daddy still noticed something, and it seemed that he and Sister Xiang were still too close.
"The Qing family has something to do, and there is nothing to retreat from." Chu Xiang sat upright on the dragon chair, his brows furrowed tightly. Yesterday, it was another sleepless night. The longing for Cheng Dusk Kite gradually increased with the number of days, and it has almost reached the point where it is difficult to rest day and night. The same scene, the same person, painted and painted, watched and watched, but could not solve a little lovesickness, only increased the sadness.
"Your Majesty, minister, something is going on!"
"Prime Minister Wang said."
"Emperor Qiqi, the minister recently got the news that the martial arts conference will be held in three days. At that time, hundreds of sects will gather at Chengjiabao. Those people in the martial arts have always been a little snub about the orders of the imperial court. The minister thought that the emperor could meddle in the martial arts conference in the name of understanding the situation. In this way, it can not only show that the emperor cares about the people in their martial arts, but also establish prestige among them. ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar. The ministers present had some opposition and some support, and they jumped out one after another to express their opinions. For a while, the majestic and quiet Zaochao suddenly became as noisy as a vegetable market, but someone's heart had already drifted elsewhere.
Chu Xiang looked at the recital on the table in a daze, and when it came to what Prime Minister Wang was talking about, he couldn't hear it for a long time. After hearing the three words of Cheng Jiabao, the soul had already wandered elsewhere. Cheng Jiabao, Cheng Dusk Kite. Chu Xiang linked the two names together in his heart, as if he had thought of something, and almost jumped up excitedly. It wasn't until the eunuch next to him reminded him that he came back to his senses.
"Ahem, what Prime Minister Wang Cheng said is very right. After passing the order, I decided to go to Chengjiabao in person to attend this martial arts conference. Chu Xiangqiang held back the excitement in his heart and said, thinking that he would be able to see Cheng Duichi immediately, he couldn't wait to set off for Chengjiabao now. God really wants to help himself, he is worried about the time when he can't intersect with Cheng Dui. This martial arts conference gave him a chance.
"Yes! The emperor is wise! The ministers below knelt on the ground, ready to retreat. None of them noticed Chu Xiang's happy expression, but Gonggong Wei beside him could see it clearly. Thinking of his master's behavior and strange behavior in the past few days, as well as his reaction at this time, a spiritual light flashed in front of his eyes.
As soon as the news of Chu Xiang's intention to participate in the martial arts conference came out, it attracted opposition and angry scolding from countless sects. Although the whole world is not the king's land, the hearts of the people in the king's land are not necessarily all towards the court. From ancient times to the present, martial arts people are a single individual. They do not obey the imperial court and are not subordinate to the royal family, they only believe in the noble martial arts, and the martial arts alliance leader who can overwhelm the others.
If the imperial court is a sphere of influence, then martial arts can also be regarded as one, but the power of the imperial court is much greater than that of the latter. Although they are two spheres of influence, for hundreds of years, the relationship between Wulin and the imperial court has always been that the well water does not interfere with the river water, as long as you don't interfere with me, I will never disturb you.
Chu Xiang's behavior obviously broke this relationship. In the matter of martial arts, which round got you an emperor who didn't even grow a beard to intervene? The heads of various sects and factions are not convinced, and the entire martial arts are naturally unconvinced. However, the world is like this, even if you are dissatisfied and dissatisfied, you can't put it on the table. If a fool really goes to the court and says that he doesn't want Emperor Yongxiang to interfere in the affairs of martial arts, it is two words - looking for death!
As the martial arts conference was gradually approaching, the day before, all the participating sect heads and their disciples had already come to Chang'an City one after another. At this time, it was the end of Guiyue and the beginning of the third autumn, and all the vendors in Chang'an City got up early, set up their unique shops on the streets, and waited for the guests to come.
Compared with the good business of the vendors, the business of inns and restaurants has ushered in the second spring after the opening of the store. No matter what sect or disciple they are, when they come to Chang'an City, in addition to having a look, they must stay in a hotel and eat. Seeing the full room and the money in the account, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er could hardly close their mouths when they smiled.
"Hey! What do the three guests want to do? Our store provides live and top drinks, as well as the alliance master wine specially brewed for this martial arts conference! "I saw the three men in black cloaks, hats, and swords pinned to their waists at the door. The sharp-eyed shopkeeper could see at a glance that they were the ones who were going to participate in the martial arts conference, and hurriedly promoted the alliance leader wine they had brewed specifically for money.
"Okay, let's come to the three upper rooms first, and then send a pot of alliance master wine, and your special side dishes here to the room." One of the leading men said, his voice sounding rough and powerful, matching his tall appearance. "Okay, guest officer! Please go to your room and rest! The shopkeeper asked Xiao Er to take the three men to the room, and he looked at the silver he had just received and smirked.
After the wine and food were served, the man sent the little two who delivered the dishes away, and then took off the hat on his head, revealing his true face inside. "Senior brother, Shizun has already gotten up and rushed here a few days ago, why can't I see his shadow in the entire Chang'an City?" A thief-looking man asked the man in charge.
"Hehe, dad naturally has his plans to do things, this time the leader of the martial arts alliance must be in the bag of our Sword Forging Villa. No matter what it is, Cheng Jiabao and the other two major families, when they encounter the sword in our hands, they must be defeated! ”
"But senior brother, I heard that Cheng Gang of Chengjiabao is extremely difficult to deal with. As early as ten years ago, he was a well-known figure in the martial arts, and after becoming the castle master, who knows how good his martial arts will be? and her eldest daughter, Cheng Dui, who has also been a famous figure in martial arts in recent years.
"Hahahaha!" The man at the head laughed loudly when he heard the words of his junior brother, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes, but a cold light. "Senior brother, you are the ambition of the enemy, and destroy our own prestige! No matter how powerful that old man Cheng Gang is, how can he be better than my father? And that Cheng Dusk Kite is even less troublesome. I heard my father say that the Cheng family intends to marry our Sword Casting Villa, and wants to marry Cheng Dui to me. If you think about it, that person is mine, so why should I be afraid of her? ”
"Senior brother is really a dragon among people, I heard that Cheng Dusk Kite is only fourteen years old, and he has already been born slim and elegant, and he has captivated the country and the city. Now that he can combine with his senior brother, he is really a pair of golden boys and girls! Envy of others! The two juniors kept patting the man in the lead, but it was clear that the latter was very useful.
"Hahahaha, I knew that it would be a good decision to take the two of you out to see it this time, and when I returned to Sword Casting Villa, I would let my father choose two swords with you, and let outsiders see the strength of our Sword Casting Villa!"
"Thank you, brother! Thank you, brother! The two junior brothers finally got the sweetness and hurriedly bowed their heads to thank them.
Although tomorrow is the martial arts conference, there is no time to be idle in Chengjiabao. Cheng Duiyuan was busy preparing the dishes for the banquet, and Cheng Gang was selecting the disciples who would be able to participate in the ring tomorrow.
