Chapter 160: A Bright and Honest Villain

"Congratulations!"

"Huh...... Come in. [Ran^Text^Library] []”

Xiao Ye bowed his hand and said politely: "I'm going to have fun eating!" ”

Xiao Zhuang's 70th birthday, banquet with the same door.

"Hou family, Hou Tianci." A sudden exclamation came from outside the door, Xiao Ye hurriedly ran out to greet him, Hou Tianci is a relatively powerful person in the Hou clan, so the official clan must take it seriously.

"Lord Hou, please sit in the hall." Xiao Ye smiled and bowed.

Hou Tianci is burly and a general in the imperial capital, so his status naturally goes without saying.

"Haha...... Today, Old Man Xiao celebrates his birthday, and the Hou family naturally wants to come! Hou Tianci laughed violently a few times and said, "Hou Ye has been busy recently, so he had to ask me to send a congratulatory gift on his behalf." ”

Between the words, Hou Tianci waved his hand and motioned for the people behind him to bring up the things.

A South Sea pearl, blood-red.

"It is worthy of Master Hou, his shot is really generous, and I also ask Lord Hou to go back and say thank you to Lord Hou for my father." Xiao Ye asked people to take the pearl and said politely.

Hou Tianci smiled indifferently, and then waved his hand into the Xiao family's compound.

"Xue Wangfu, Xue Tian arrives." Another shout came out violently, making Xiao Ye's heart twitch a few times, there was someone from King Xue's mansion, of course Xiao Ye had to go to greet him in person.

"Lord Xue, good!" Xiao Ye smiled, stood in front of a sedan chair, and greeted.

"Hmm."

The people in the sedan chair walked out slowly, almost not looking at Xiao Ye squarely, so they motioned to their subordinates to send the congratulatory gifts, and said: "Old man Xiao has a birthday, and Xue Tian will send a congratulatory gift on behalf of Xue Wangfu." ”

A jade Buddha, jade is cold ice jade.

"It's really generous!"

The moment he saw the Jade Buddha, Xiao Ye's eyes lit up, and he said, "I hope Lord Xue Tian can say a few more kind words for Xiao Ye in front of the prince." ”

"Hehe......"

Smiling indifferently, Xue Tian calmly took a step, glanced at Xiao Ye indifferently, and then walked into the Xiao family's compound.

"Cut, something. Isn't it just a dog's leg next to Lord Xue? I really fucking think of myself as a thing. Xiao Ye was very unhappy with Xue Tian in his heart, and said coldly in his heart.

Next, the guests arrived one after another.

Sure enough, many famous families in the imperial capital of the imperial city came to the Xiao family, and many of them were from the Hou family and the royal family.

"As you know, today is my father Xiao Zhuang's seventieth birthday, so I invite you to come." Xiao Ye stood at the top and said happily: "Since everyone is here today, you must eat well and play well." ”

……

…………

Outside the Shaw Mansion.

Under an ancient locust tree, a man in a floor-length black robe stood proudly, staring blankly at the sky, which would rain in a few moments.

"I hope the blood doesn't flow down the street!" Under the black robe, the man indifferently spit out a few words and said.

There was a black package in the man's hand, the lower corner of the package was dyed blood red, and some blood dripped from time to time, with a strong smell of blood.

The man's destination is Xiao Mansion, it is obvious that he came to Xiao Mansion to celebrate his birthday, and the black package stained red by blood in his hand is the congratulatory gift he gave to Old Man Xiao, as for this congratulatory gift, whether Old Man Xiao will accept it or not, it has nothing to do with the man.

"Stop." Screaming violently, you must know that the man's face is covered in a black robe, and the watchdog of the Xiao family naturally stops him.

"I'm here to give a congratulatory gift!" Under the guidance of Pan Long, Ye Shuming learned to lower his voice and imitate the voice of the old man, and the voice of his words at this time was no different from that of the old man.

"Which family are you from?" There were two people guarding the Xiao Mansion, both of whom were third-level dragon masters, staring at the black-robed man with wide eyes and asking.

"The Lan family." Ye Xuanming's purpose is obvious, to destroy the entire official clan, and to rescue Lan Bingning, after thinking twice, it is most suitable to be the Lan family.

"Have you heard of it?" The watchman on the left asked the watchman on the right, and said.

"Nope."

The caretaker on the right thought about it carefully, he had stayed in the imperial capital of the imperial city for thirty years, and he basically knew everything about the big family, when did the imperial capital have a big family surnamed Lan now?

There was no doubt that the man in the black robe was lying.

"Who the hell are you?" The watchman on the right looked suddenly serious, and shouted, "If you don't say anything more, we'll have to do it." "The caretaker must determine the identity of the other party, and then he can choose whether to move or not, otherwise if he fights the old lady of which family, he will not be able to eat and walk around.

"Let's do it!"

Under the floor-length black robe, Ye Shuming said indifferently, without the slightest panic and fear.

Rumble!

The two guards on the left and right made a total of explosive punches, rushing towards Ye Shuming, there was a few traces of strong and murderous aura on the fists, and the strength of the third-level dragon master could be seen.

At the same time, the two guards attacked from Ye Shuming's left and right sides, and their momentum was strong, threatening to take Ye Shuming's life.

"Kill!"

The ground-reaching robe fell in the wind, and under the robe, a sword was as fast as rushing water, and it danced wildly and slashed at the neck of the guard.

At this moment, blood spilled on Xiao's family, and the left and right were killed almost at the same time.

Ye Shuming slowly walked into the Xiao family, walked to the place where the congratulatory gift was registered, and said, "The Lan family specially came to congratulate the old man of the Xiao family on his seventieth birthday. ”

"Congratulatory gift, black wrap one."

The person who registered the congratulatory gift stared at what was under the package, it was a human head, indeed a human head, the head of a person he knew very well.

"Can I go in then?" Under the black robe, the person who registered the congratulatory gift couldn't see Ye Yuming's identity, but just nodded in a panic, and then prepared to inform the people of the Xiao family.

"Kill!"

Another sword grazed the neck of the person who gave the gift, and a touch of blood red floated out, and all this happened quietly.

………

"As we all know, I, Xiao Zhuang, serve the court and the people wholeheartedly, and I think that I have not done anything to be sorry for others, otherwise there would not be so many people today, giving the old man face to come here to congratulate the old man on his birthday." Already old, Xiao Zhuang gently stroked his slender beard and said loudly.

"The old man is right." Hou Tianci took the lead in representing the views of the Hou family, and said with a loud laugh: "The old man of Xiao Zhuang is a man who stands up to the sky, so naturally he has not done anything that hurts the heavens and reason. ”

"Hehe......"

Xue Tian smiled calmly and didn't say much, it's just that there are a few people who are officials, and everyone understands this truth, but everyone is unwilling to break it.

"If Xiao Zhuang has done anything to be sorry for everyone, everyone will say that Xiao Zhuang will work hard to compensate everyone." Xiao Zhuang was full of energy when he said this, and he was very excited.

Almost all the major families in the imperial capital came to participate in Xiao Zhuang

This big birthday, listening to Xiao Zhuang say this, everyone's hearts couldn't help but tremble fiercely, it turned out that Xiao Zhuang was so upright.

"Old man Xiao Zhuang, you don't need to say much, we all believe you."

"Yes, we believe in you."

The crowd talked a lot, expressing their respect for Xiao Zhuang, maybe this is Xiao Zhuang, one set in front of people, but another set behind people, which is incomprehensible.

"Hmm!"

Xiao Zhuang nodded with satisfaction, and a few smiles crossed Xiao Ye's face, there was no doubt that Xiao Ye must have done something hurtful behind Xiao Zhuang's back, but Xiao Zhuang didn't know, otherwise he would never say the kind of words that he wanted to compensate.

"In this case, I hope everyone can forget all kinds of unpleasantness in the past, and then eat and drink to your heart's content in Xiao Mansion." Xiao Zhuang was very happy and said with a loud laugh.

"Old man Xiao's life is bright and fair, let's all raise a glass together and toast Old Man Xiao."

"Good!"

Suddenly, many people lifted the quilt and prepared to drink it all, and people had a very high evaluation of Xiao Zhuang, of course, these evaluations were based on the performance of Xiao Zhuang people.

There are two kinds of people in this world, one is a villain who doesn't wear a mask in front of people, but wears a mask behind people, such as Xiao Zhuang. The other is a gentleman who wears a mask in front of people, but does not wear a mask behind people, such as Ye Shuming.

A kind of human being, hypocritical to the extreme.

A kind of person, above board.

"Smack!"

The first round of applause rang out, followed by snapping, snapping, snapping, and applause.

Everyone stopped the glass in their hands, and the wine didn't even say that they had drunk it yet, and looked at the person who applauded just now, and their eyes showed a little weirdness.

The person who applauded, dressed in a black robe, the black robe reached the ground, slender and covered the person's face, a little mysterious.

"Xiao Zhuang, bright and fair?"

Under the black robe, Ye Shuming chuckled and shouted: "He is a bright villain!" Ye Shuming's voice was not loud, but it was just enough for everyone present to hear it clearly.
