The magnates who left the Wei Mansion went to the council according to what Mu Chen said, and the cadres didn't care about any etiquette after seeing the queen's honor guard, and came to the door of Quan Yuren's bedroom on a rampage, if it wasn't for Lao Chen's imposition to stop them, they would probably break into the door directly and wake up the old city lord.

Quan Yuren took medicine yesterday and has been sleeping soundly until now, the old man has not slept a peaceful sleep since he returned to Baoling City, and finally he can temporarily put down his thoughts because of physical reasons, but he was woken up by these self-interested people who are eager to see, so he has no choice but to go out to deal with it, let them wait in the living room, and give him some time to wash and change clothes.

Ten minutes later, Quan Yuren walked in listlessly, although he had slept for a long time, his spirit had not yet recovered, and his face was still a little ugly.

Quan Mingde also rushed over when he got the news, he probably knew what these people were thinking, so he wanted to take this opportunity to persuade his father to give it a go according to what he and Shi Hanlu had planned.

"Old city lord, why are you still in the mood to sleep, the queen's men and horses have arrived. ”

"Yes, old city lord, the nobles from all over the country wrote letters to woo Mu Chen before, and now even the queen has sent someone here, will he leave like this with the patriarch in a fit of anger. ”

Quan Yuren pressed his head, drank a few sips of hot tea, maybe he slept for too long and was still a little dazed, waved his hand again and again, and asked, "Who do you say is coming, the queen is here?"

"Old city lord, queen... The queen's envoy came, and we saw them enter the Wei Mansion with our own eyes, and we are probably persuading Mu Chen to return to Infinite City at this time. ”

"Don't worry, he won't leave, with what I know about him, he won't leave until the matter of the Spirit Clan is decided. Quan Yuren picked up the teacup again and took two sips.

"Old Liu's words have come to that point, what else is there to conclude, the patriarch has also resigned, why do you still say that they won't leave?"

Quan Mingde looked at this group of people in surprise, they were usually respectful to their father, but now they dared to refute it bluntly, and his father didn't seem to care about this, and let them challenge their authority without any hindrance.

"I've known Mu Chen for thirty years, and no one has snatched anything from him that he doesn't want to give, you can rest assured, he won't leave. ”

"Then what do you mean, since you already knew we had no chance of winning, why didn't you stop it?"

"You all follow Liu Yi to coax first, how can I stop it, I said this in advance, follow Mu Chen, and then drive out the spirit clan through public opinion in the future, and you have all agreed. Who would have thought that the news would leak out so quickly, and who would have thought that he Liu Yixian would be so rigid, he had to fight for a red face, and neither side could get off the stage, and in the end no one could get a good deal, can I be blamed for this?" Quan Yuren still focused on shirking responsibility and pointed the finger at Liu Yixian.

"Old city lord, let's not talk about this, go and meet the Patriarch, and see if you can make her change her mind. ”

"I said they couldn't leave, and now they're all angry, what's the use of you asking me to see her?"

"Old City Lord, there are two demonic beast nests in my territory, seeing that they are about to come out of the hole, the great herd must not come forward, my harvest this year is all over. ”

"The road that our department was ordered to patrol has also been attacked frequently recently, three outposts have been destroyed, more than a dozen people have been killed or wounded, and the Patriarch is urgently needed to solve this matter, the old city lord, you can go and meet the Patriarch. ”

"You... Obviously, I can find other employers to solve it, just to save so much employment fees, I have to come forward at this time, you are simply..."

"Mu Chen asked you to go, and we have no other way. ”

"What did you say, what did Mu Chen say?"

"We went to the Wei Mansion early in the morning to ask to see the Patriarch, but Mu Chen said that you must come forward in person, otherwise no one will be seen. ”

"Is that really what you said?"

Everyone nodded hurriedly, and cast urgent eyes at Quan Yuren, they wanted to restore the previous order as soon as possible, they were too accustomed to living this shameless life without paying, but the reward was not less at all.

"Father, since it is Mu Chen's intention, why don't I accompany you on a trip, and the departure of the Patriarch does affect the interests of every nobleman in Baoling Prefecture. ”

Seeing that Quan Mingde also said this, Quan Yuren was silent, he didn't want to be too involved at this time, he was still a little weak in front of Mu Chen, and in the eyes of outsiders, as soon as Liu Yixian left, he came to the door in person, which was obviously biased. Although Liu Yixian was not as useful to him as Mu Chen in the struggle for imperial power, Liu Yixian was an indispensable existence in Baoling Prefecture, which was his foundation, but the territory of more than 100,000 people paid more taxes every year than hundreds of thousands of people around Baoling City, so Quan Yuren was in a dilemma, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

"Father, my son understands your concerns, but he is always decisive, I believe that if you let everyone choose at this time, your own interests will definitely be more important than the obsession of the old nobles. ”

After listening to the words of the full name, the nobles looked at each other in embarrassment, which was obviously sarcastic, saying that they were mercenary.

"Mu Chen will leave Baoling Prefecture sooner or later, and the Patriarch will definitely go with him, what you have done now is only in vain, and you can't go back to the past. ”

Under pressure, Quan Yuren told the truth, but the powerful did not buy it, they were like babies who had just lost their mothers, and they did not think about how to live in the future, but only wanted to drink milk as soon as possible to satisfy their appetites at the moment.

"Old city lord, even if the Patriarch will eventually leave us, she is still in the city, and we still have time to slowly adjust our mentality in the future situation, but we are not ready to deal with emergencies at the moment, so you should go and meet the Patriarch. ”

At this point, Quan Yuren had nothing to say, and under the soft grinding and hard bubbles of everyone, he reluctantly agreed. The old man's headache had not healed, so he used this as an excuse for Lao Chen to help him walk back to the room slowly, not wanting to continue to entangle.

The two sisters take Coco to the market to customize their clothes, and at first they go unnoticed, but as more and more people notice the wings behind Cocoa, gossip and fingers come to their faces.

"Sister, they are..."

"I don't know if I recognize us as wastelanders, but I haven't done that before. ”

The two sisters didn't realize that the strange eyes were on Coco, so they hurried into a shop and fled the busy street.

When the boss saw a guest coming to the door, he warmly stepped forward to entertain him, but when he saw Cocoa, he put away his smile and only looked at the sisters, asking them about their preferences.

"With the two of you, these aristocratic ladies' dresses are definitely not suitable, you look at these styles, they are soft and snug and accentuate the figure. ”

"What, boss, do you know us?"

"Yes, I happened to be there when something happened in the square, and the posture of the two of you fighting against the merchant group is still fresh in my memory, and besides, you still came with Lord Mu Chen, and you are a distinguished guest of our homeland city. ”

"Yes, don't you humans reject aliens, and the two of us are wastelanders?"

"What you said is unfair, the patriarch is not of the same race as us, and it is too late for us to love it, how can we reject it. ”

"Okay boss, don't use this example to prevaricate us, it's not clear in your own heart whether you are excluded or not. Forget it, look at the clothes. ”

"You please, you please. ”

The three of them walked around the store, Chunyue picked out a few pieces of color and style suitable for cocoa, and just compared them in front of her, the boss stepped forward and asked, "Who did you buy it from?"

"Buy it for her, can you change the backs of these bodies, or you can customize a few pieces according to her body shape. ”

"Two, I'm sorry, you take all the samples for display, not for sale, and the small store can't customize the clothes, or you can go to another store to have a look. ”

Jiayue immediately became angry when she heard this, walked to the boss in two steps, and asked menacingly: "For display, which one of you is not for display, which one will I buy?"

Seeing Jiayue's tough attitude, the boss hurriedly explained: "Blame me, I didn't introduce it to you clearly, the clothes in the small store are all for display, and they are generally based on which bare size, and then send them to your house when they are ready." ”

"You are clearly inconsistent, just said that you can't customize, but now you can, boss, what do you mean, do you sincerely make fun of us wasteland people?"

Under Jiayue's questioning, the boss was a little impatient, so he replied angrily: "My shop, I can do whatever business I want, the small store is closing, you should leave quickly." ”

"You... Skeleton soldiers... I'll make you look down on us. ”

Two skeletons emerge from behind the hanger and head straight for the boss, grabbing him by the legs and putting him upside down in mid-air.

"You... What do you want to do, listen to me, not at you, but at that winged alien, please put me down quickly. ”

"Coco, where did she offend you, and what did you do for her?"

"She... She's a spirit clan, they just attacked us yesterday, and they want to rob us of our land, no matter how greedy I am, I won't do her business. ”

Hearing this, Jia Yue fully understood, it turned out that the strange eyes on the street were also aimed at Coco, although she saw the reaction of the nobles with her own eyes, but she didn't expect that even ordinary people would reject the spirit clan like this.

"She... They are not what you think, yesterday's incident was a misunderstanding. ”

"Misunderstanding? Even the guards guarding the city gate have been killed, how can there be such a misunderstanding?"

"It's... You... Forget it, let him down. The boss was right, and Jiayue knew that he didn't know the reason, so he let him go and recalled the skeleton soldiers.

"You two are friends of the Great Patriarch and Lord Mu Chen, and you are relatively guests of our Homeland City, but this Spirit Clan girl, I can't treat each other politely, don't be embarrassed by me, if you want to buy clothes, go elsewhere." ”

Coco, who has been silent, walked out of the store, she didn't want to cause a bigger dispute, the experience of the past two days made her somewhat mentally constructed, knowing that the current situation of the Spirit Clan would not be easily accepted by humans, but when faced in person, she was still a little disappointed, her own race was not malicious, and she was not here to grab the land, as long as the human race could release some kindness, they would be grateful and protect the relationship between the two races for generations.
