Volume 3 Pauling Prefecture Chapter 77 Accusations
The three of them had happily gone out to buy clothes, but due to the status of the Cocoa Spirit Clan, they could only return empty-handed. Entering the inner courtyard of the Wei Mansion, Coco still maintained a curled figure, and still did not let go of the sense of self-protection formed by being excluded along the way.
"Coco, it's okay, they'll learn the truth slowly. Junyue said as she rubbed her shoulders to let her relax.
"Sister Junyue, we... We just wanted to find a way out, and we didn't want to hurt anyone, butβ" Coco couldn't hold back and cried.
"It's okay... It's okay, with Mu Chen here, everything will be fine. Chunyue hugged her and caressed and comforted, and Jiayue sighed on the side.
Mu Chen heard the crying, came out of the room, asked Jiayue a few questions, and roughly understood the situation, so he knocked on Qiluna's door and gathered everyone together.
"Let's go out to eat today, and then have a good visit to Baoling City in the afternoon, I may not have been here for a long time, just take this opportunity to relax and relax. Mu Chen didn't want to lie in the room and continue to torture himself, and at the same time apologize to the people who endured his bad temper, so he decided to take everyone out and change his mood.
"Mu Chen, coco, she..."
"Your sisters are overflowing with love, and this little thing is nothing. Coco, we were much worse than you back then, you are the one who will decide the fate of the spirit race in the future, how can you serve the public when you cry, I will invite you to a big meal in a while, don't cry. β
"Thank you, Lord Mu Chen. β
"Girl, bring the dark orange with you and let her be a guide. Although the expression of fear on Dark Orange's face was no longer there, she was still hiding behind Kiruna, and she had not yet returned to her previous lively and cheerful appearance.
When Wei Gonglu heard the news, as soon as he heard that Mu Chen and they were going out, he asked the housekeeper to prepare the carriage and horses, and he also went with him.
"No need, let's go, don't follow, stay in the house and wait for news." β
Wei Gonglu sent them to the gate, and asked again if they needed to follow someone to arrange a dot, and after Mu Chen refused, he watched them leave.
The group had never walked on the streets of Baoling City like they did now, Mu Chen and Qi Luna walked in the front, Mo Cheng stuck behind Qi Luna, and the sisters held Coco in the middle and followed side by side at the end.
Everyone they met on the road saluted them with smiles, but when they saw the wings behind Coco, everyone frowned, they didn't understand why the Great Patriarch and Lord Mu Chen would walk with a spirit clan, the demeanor of several people did not look like they had captured this person, but there was no other explanation to explain the picture in front of them, so everyone was speculating and discussing, but no one dared to come forward to ask.
Mu Chen and Qi Luna's comfortable and firm steps made Coco slowly let go of her guard, she went from bowing her head and afraid to look at passers-by to looking up and looking around, it only took ten minutes, and even discussed the meaning of the names of each shop with the two sisters, laughing while talking, no longer caring about the eyes of others as much as before.
The group walked to the restaurant "Jiaweixuan" where they had their first meal, and the boss saw the patriarch and Mu Chen, who didn't know him at the time, and hurriedly ran over to greet him, although he aimed at Cocoa, but his attitude did not change, and he still served enthusiastically, without saying a word of superfluity.
"Lord Mu Chen, last time the villain had no eyes and couldn't recognize you, I hope you don't blame you. β
"What's there to blame for this, it's a sin to not cook well. β
"What you said is, you please. The boss took Mu Chen and his party to the staircase, and was going to arrange them in the private room on the third floor.
"Wait, boss. If you don't go up, you eat in the hall. β
"Hey, Lord Mu Chen, this is not appropriate, the hall is noisy, and it is a four-person table, and you can't sit down. β
"Just put the two together, and eat them in the hall. β
"Listen to your orders, this way, please. β
Since it was noon, there were few empty seats in the hall, and the men found an empty table, and took another table out of the storeroom, and put the two tables together.
The guests were all eating with their heads down, and when they caught a glimpse of the busy chattering scene, they subconsciously raised their heads to look, and as soon as they saw the Patriarch and Mu Chen, they immediately got up and saluted, and passed from table to table, and finally everyone in the entire hall put down the dishes and chopsticks and stood up.
Mu Chen motioned for them to sit down as he walked, and joked: "Have a meal, don't make it the same as a review, sit down, sit down." β
As soon as a few of them took their seats, an even more laughable scene appeared, around the table, including the boss, there were six people standing waiting to serve, this battle was obviously one-on-one service, more attentive than in the private room.
"Boss, let them get busy, there are always people watching after I have a meal, can you still eat this?"
"It's too messy, leave a few more people for you to call. β
"No need, you just have to do business normally, or this money, look at it. With that, Mu Chen put a stack of gold coins on the table.
The boss didn't shirk this time, put away the gold coins and thanked him repeatedly, and took the guys to the back kitchen to arrange the dishes.
"Coco, let me tell you, this stuff is delicious, especially the peach blossom mead, I last time..."
"Chunyue, you are embarrassed to mention this, do you still drink it today, if you want to drink it, I will give you another bucket. β
"Mu Chen, you... I just described the taste with cocoa, and I didn't say I had to drink it. β
Several people joked about drunkenness, and the laughter gradually became extremely loud from the noisy ambient sounds, and Jiayue suddenly felt that there was only her own voice in the hall, and there was silence around her, so she immediately stopped and looked around in a panic.
"You want to ask something, but it doesn't hurt. Mu Chen looked at the guests who bowed their heads and said nothing, and took the initiative to talk.
Coco realized that it was her own reason, put away her smile, and lifted her shoulders again.
"Her name is Lingxi Coco, from the Spirit Clan, I brought it from Spirit Tree City in the Giant Crocodile Forest, and I want to move their Spirit Clan as a whole to the human villages and towns. Because of this incident, the girl and I, that is, your patriarch, turned against the major nobles in the state, including Quan Yuren, and the girl also resigned, what else do you want to know?" Mu Chen saw that no one dared to ask, so he told the truth by himself.
Hearing the resignation of the Patriarch, everyone was no longer silent, and someone tentatively asked Qiluna: "Patriarch, have you really resigned?"
"Resigned. β
These two words were like sparks, and they rekindled the noisy atmosphere of the hall, and when they heard the Patriarch admit it himself, everyone was suspicious in a moment, and in a moment they became self-justified, saying that even if the Patriarch resigned, he would protect the homeland city, but it was just a title, so there was no need to worry too much.
Until Mu Chen interrupted them: "Resigning is resigning, and in the future, the girl will no longer participate in anything in Baoling Prefecture." β
With such a straightforward answer, there was no way to deceive himself anymore, so someone asked in a reprimanding tone: "Patriarch, why did you abandon us for the sake of a foreign race, our people in the city have always respected you, are you worthy of us in doing so?"
Although this group of people was overwhelmed by the sudden unexpected news, there were still people who kept their senses, and this kind of unreasonable questioning was immediately refuted, and some people even told him to get out and not mess around here.
The questioner saw that he had become the target of the public, so he stood up angrily, pointed at the people who were insulting him, and roared angrily: "You are all bad seeds, Lao Tzu stands up for you, not only are you not grateful, but you dare to scold me, she eats us and drinks ours, and now she is going to abandon us for a foreign race, I ask what's wrong, I'll ask, Patriarch, you say..."
Before he finished speaking, his friend at the same table covered his mouth and apologized while pulling out: "I'm sorry, everyone, he drank too much... If you drink too much, Patriarch, don't take it to heart, he did drink too much, I will take him away immediately, and you will continue to eat. β
The drunk who was dragged broke free from his friend, walked to Mu Chen's table with a slight stagger, pointed at Lingxi Coco and scolded: "What kind of thing are you, people are not people, birds are not birds, you deserve to eat here like this, get out of the homeland city." β
Just when the hall was about to fall into chaos, the boss came out of the back kitchen with the dishes, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately put the plate aside, hurriedly ran over to pull away the drunkard, and persuaded repeatedly: "Master Li... Master Li, you have drunk too much, this is the Patriarch and Lord Mu Chen, don't come nonsense, I will help you into the house to rest, don't make any more trouble. β
"Boss, do you know him?"
"Lord Mu Chen, he is the guard of the South Gate, Li Wuchang, who often comes to the villain's shop, he is a little rude, but his human nature is not bad, he drinks too much, if he says something wrong, you will be more responsible... Be patient. With that, the boss took Li Wuchang and walked out, but before he could take two steps, he broke free again, and this time walked towards Qiluna.
"Patriarch, our captain Liu... Liu Jie, who is upright, in order to protect the peace of mankind, has fought against Warcraft on the battlefield for more than ten years, I... He saved me, you... You actually forced him to die in the council for this monster, is this in the past, this... This isβ" He became more and more agitated the more he spoke, and finally burst into tears with the strength of the wine.
Mu Chen was not prepared to stop him from the beginning of the trouble, and the two sisters did not make a move when they saw the attitude of human beings, and even the accused Qiluna and Coco were allowed to abuse without saying a word, but Mo Cheng, who had been snuggling up to Qiluna, couldn't sit still, she slowly straightened up from hearing someone questioning the Patriarch, and the expression on her face became more and more gloomy, and finally when the drunkard in the mouth of this crowd confronted the Patriarch directly, she broke out, and kicked him in the stomach, the power was so great that a burly soldier retreated several steps in succession, knocking over the food on the next tableγ
Seeing this, the boss hurriedly stepped forward and pulled, Mo Cheng looked back and pointed at his nose to scare him away, and then pounced on him, punched and kicked Li Wuchang, and finally knocked him to the ground, riding on him and intimidating: "The patriarch is also a pariah like you who dare to judge, I will let you go to your Captain Liu today." β
