Chapter 38: A Snowy Night
The Quartet came here, and the indescribably expensive treasure was sent to the Huangfu Emperor's Palace, which made people envious.
Unfortunately, those in power are not as frustrated as outsiders.
The emperor's family, except for the current Emperor Fu Zong, the emperor of the five continents, all the men have no one who can take on the big responsibility, but the daughter Linlang, who is extremely talented and diligent.
It's just that recently, why haven't you seen anyone?
Huangfuzong won a headache, the Quartet came to the court, the son was not successful, and the daughter picked the son, all of which had to be done by himself.
Oops!
Mei Xue stepped on the thin white snow, holding a small wood carving beauty in her hand.
"It's snowing?" was surprised to see the wisps of white that were about to melt on her cloak. Yesterday was still a warm sun, and the sky was clear.
Mei Xue, who came in full costume, was angry.
This man has changed, if he treats her wholeheartedly, he will definitely not ask about the weather, but will be furious and jealous because of the wooden carving in her hand.
Thinking of this, my heart is slightly cold. The tone naturally did not return to the tenderness and sweetness of the past: "Well, it didn't take long for the snow to fall. He also deliberately played with the wood carving villain, which finally made this little thing enter the eyes of Huangfu Zongying.
"It's the Eagle again. "I reached out and took the statue, and the carving was quite detailed. "It's very similar to you, just as beautiful!"
He told the truth, this wood carving was lifelike, no different from the Mei Xue in front of him.
When he and Ling Xiao met when they were young, they were both heirs to the family.
Ling Xiao knows a lot of things, which have been cultivated by the Ling family since childhood, which makes him very envious. After all, as long as the heir of the Huangfu family is alive, talent or something is not very important.
Mei Xue has a heart attack, it's really changed!
"Give me back, this is what Brother Ling gave me. He snatched the wood carving and slammed the door in a rage.
Huangfu Zong smiled bitterly when he saw her go away!
He really didn't want to play this kind of game with her, especially when Ling Xiao's wife was separated.
People are selfish, and he never thought that he would harm Ling Xiao to what he is now.
He's mean, shameless, filthy, and a bastard!
He was holding the Ling Xue clothes sent by the Ling family in his hand, if he remembered correctly, this one should be the one enshrined in the Ling family's ancestral hall, the one he was not willing to give to his children!
He sat down on the ground, stunned!
The waiter who heard the voice outside the door probed slightly, and when he saw the simple and unpretentious Ling Xueyi, his face was strange.
It's night!
Ling Ruokong, who received the secret letter, looked puzzled.
The two handbooks were placed side by side on the table, and the lights in the corners of the table flickered, and the man at the table was very terrifying.
"Now, what is my father thinking? While persuading me to go home to inherit the head of the family, he also sent all the treasures of the Ling family to the Huangfu family. Is this going to leave an empty shell for me?" Ling Ruokong didn't hate or get angry, he got used to this kind of thing after seeing it too much.
The Ling Xue clothes enshrined in the ancestral hall are inherited from ancient times, and it is said that the ancestors of the Ling family wore it to survive from the battlefield of the gods, but it is not comparable to the two pieces refined later.
He's really willing!
Thinking of some of the things he checked, it's time to show Ah Niang, the Ling family is something he set for his eldest brother, and he wants to get something from him, have you asked him?
"Little boy, reveal the things we found to my aunt. ”
The boy nodded.
What kind of mentality did Huangfu Zong use to face Ling Xiao and his wife after so many years.
Ling Ruokong sneered, how to face it, what does it have to do with him. He's not him, he likes to cuckold himself!
Although Ling Ruokong is almost a waste, he has a good sister and a good mother.
His mother, Mei Yu, returned to Mei's house after dissolving the marriage contract with Ling Xiao.
The Mei family respects women, and originally thought that the Mei family might break off the inheritance after the only concubine married and had children. I was overjoyed to hear that Mei Yu and Ling Xiao had broken up, and the Mei family was united, and its profits were broken. Soon helped Mei Yu to sit firmly in the position of power in Nanlu.
His younger sister, Ling Ruoxing, was designated as the next head of the Mei family when she was just born. Although they are married, the other party will join Mei's family.
Behind him, in addition to the strong support of the Mei family, there is also half of the Ling family who are dissatisfied with Ling Xiao's spoiling and ignoring the bloodline of outsiders.
Although the eldest brother has not been heard from in recent years, he has become famous at a young age, and there are not a few people who are waiting and watching the remaining half of the Ling family.
Although he himself is not enough to see, the backstage is hard enough.
"I have been told. "They play with news like this, and naturally they have their channels.
"As for the Ling family's handbook in the future, there is no need to take it again. ”
"Yes. ”
Tomorrow is the day of the emperor's banquet, and it's really a pity that I can't be there!
The Ling family, the Shui family, and the Mei family all belong to the southern continent, and the resettlement site set up by the Huangfu family for them is on the south side of the imperial capital.
Like them, there are settlements on the east, west, and north sides.
Like them, they won't be calm tonight.
The manor on the east side is still ushering in the people of the Eastern Capital. Naturally, they are not very calm either.
When the old lady was alive, there were not a few people who were suppressed by her. As soon as she died, those people naturally began to behave openly and openly.
Sow discord, assassinate secretly, you name it.
And what he didn't expect the most would be Suyin's betrayal. Maybe it's not a betrayal, she is not the Jiang family in the first place.
Jiang Yige put his hands behind his back, the snow was falling outside the window, and the ground was already plain white.
"City Lord!" the person who came was the current head of the Jiang Mansion. A person of the same age who is rare to fall in love with him.
Jiang Beiyang was carrying a small wine jug, and it seemed that he had come to him for a drink and told him about his thoughts.
Thinking of this, it hurts!
"Come on, come on, city lord, you can't sleep anyway, take two sips!" Jiang Beiyang is no better than the children of several other small families, not only has no eyesight at all, but also thinks that he is self-righteous, and he makes a big fuss about the Jiang family's weak strength all day long, and then he is cut very miserably.
Although he is handsome, his vision is high enough, his heart is proud enough, and the most important thing is that he sees people very accurately. So when he stood in line, he decisively stood with the Jiang family. As for those in the family who disagree, ahem, his father's force value is not bad.
Jiang Yige happily accepted, and the two took advantage of the night to talk about life in this foreign land with the snowy scene.
"Have you been out of control recently?" I don't know why, he was always present when the city lord was out of control, and several elders of their Jiang Mansion still thought that they were sincerely obedient to Jiang Yige on the surface, and they were secretly doing it behind their backs.
Is he Jiang Beiyang such a person?
Jiang Yige shook his head, and the two out-of-control losses were caused by the strength of the rampage. As for the source of this power, the little pictures that have appeared in his mind in recent days have solved his confusion.
I'm afraid it's the will of God.
He consulted the ancient books of the Jiang family, knew about the battle of the gods, and knew the divine will. At the same time, I also know something about the will of God.
Ancient texts say that the divine will can be absorbed by man. But the divine will that can be absorbed by the human body and transformed into its own power is pure and immaculate. And the pure and flawless divine will is left behind by the strong people of the Eternal God Realm who willingly disperse the divine souls, with the purpose of allowing strong people to appear among the descendants of blood relatives to protect their descendants. This kind of divine will is rare.
He clearly remembered that the wisp of divine consciousness that day, although it was white, was not as pure as water.
Ancient books say that if it is not a pure and flawless divine will, it will be absorbed by others, and it will go mad at best, and degenerate into a demon at worst.
His two out-of-control times were too much like going mad.
"City Lord...!City Lord!" Seeing Jiang Yige coming back to his senses under his own call, Jiang Beiyang breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought you were going to get out of control again. Let me tell you, if you are out of control, those old men in our family will definitely think that I am going to seek power and usurp the throne again. ”
"I would like you to usurp power. If Beiyang sits in his position, he will not be like him, supporting all this alone.
"Don't. Seeing you so tired, I knew it wasn't a good job. If it weren't for the fact that his family was divided into two factions because they supported or opposed a young man who didn't know anything to be the lord of the city, and they were arguing endlessly, he wouldn't even want to be the head of the house. How good it is to be a gentleman!
He filled the pot for him, and filled himself with a cup. Jiang Yige said: "I'm working so hard just because of the huge Jiang family, and I'm the only one left who is outside the main family." Those big guys in the family, I went to invite them, and they would not make a move unless the Jiang family was alive and dead. You're different," he took a sip and continued, "Although your family is divided into two factions, they both love you, and if you are the city lord of this Jiang Capital City, they will inevitably twist into a rope and support you wholeheartedly." ”
Jiang Beiyang thinks about it, although his family is divided into two factions and often fights and makes trouble, he is still very good to himself. But...... Alas, no!
"Why do I think you're instigating me to rebel?" Jiang Beiyang reacted, he was trapping him in injustice.
"You found out?"
"Is there such a brother as you?" Jiang Beiyang snatched the wine jug with hatred, "My wine, I won't give you a drink." "After that, I just took a sip, and as a result, I choked.
Jiang Yige helped him pat his vest and help him get his breath. "What are you doing in such a hurry, if you don't give me a drink, I'm going to rob you?"
Jiang Beiyang, who kept coughing, had no time to refute this person, so he could only roll his eyes to show his dissatisfaction.
"Finally came to my senses. "This wine is good, why is it so uncomfortable to choke. "I said you, didn't we help you? Why are you so self-pitying? Moreover, you are doing a good job, don't you see that the few small families in the city who are looking forward to you are all defending you? Let me tell you, if you are so frustrated, I will join the elders to beat you. ”
Jiang Yige smiled loudly: "I really think you are suitable, but I didn't let you rebel." After all, the position of the city lord is not something we can decide. ”
"That's true, but don't say that again. Anyway, do you understand why you're out of control? My old doctor didn't diagnose you well, so you didn't have a point yourself?" Jiang Beiyang pulled the topic back again, he was afraid that it would be funny if he was the only one present when he was out of control.
Jiang Yige didn't know whether to say it or not, hesitated for a while, and just said ambiguously: "Probably!"
It's probably just a rough idea, as long as there is a reason, and if there is a reason, it can be solved, then it won't matter. "Think about it yourself, see if you can solve it, and say what you can't do. Shuijiang Mansion will always be on your side. Jiang Beiyang said very seriously, "As long as I, Jiang Beiyang, are in charge of Jiangfu, I will never abandon you." ”
Jiang Yige was shocked by this oath-like statement, and then he was full of emotion.
"Thank you!"
"Okay, don't keep a calm face when you think about it. Sleep well today, tomorrow's imperial banquet can only be done by you alone, be careful in everything. Jiang Beiyang patted him on the shoulder, he came today, and the most important thing was this last sentence.
"I will. ”
"That's good, then I'll go back first. I haven't thought about my goddess yet, I'm going to go back and take a second look. "Speaking of the goddess, because her coughing and flushed face when she choked just now was dyed a little hot.
......
What else can I say, Jiang Yige looked at his distant back and smiled.
