Chapter Forty-Seven: Each Conceives a Ghost
Zhang Zhai.
Bang!
Zhang Tao slapped the wooden table and scolded angrily: "Zhang Yueli, you still have me as a leader in your eyes!"
"The subordinates don't know what's wrong, please make it clear to the father. Zhang Yueli is also stubborn, facing her father's anger and not repenting.
"What's wrong? Ha! As I get older, my temper has also risen!" Zhang Tao laughed angrily, slapped the wooden table harder, and roared: "You are still not my Zhang Tao's daughter? β
Zhang Tianci was startled when he saw this formation on the side, and hurriedly defended his sister: "Father, I don't think Sister has a heart, you... β
"Shut up for me. Zhang Tao saw his son's cowering appearance, his heart was even more angry, and he scolded angrily: "You still have the face to say, for so many years, you have not grown in ability, and you have not done anything less, and you have not done a lot of things, you have not done a lot of things, what kind of woman do you want? Circling around a woman every day, it's too unusual, if you have half of your sister's talent, why don't you have a place in the temple." β
Hey, how did the wind come to me all at once! Also, I'm pursuing a true hobby!
Zhang Tianci naturally didn't dare to reply like this, so he could only bow his head pitifully and listen to the training.
Zhang Tao may have been tired of scolding, but after being happy, he waved his hand to let his children retreat, and stared at Zhang Yueli coldly before leaving, ordering that he could not participate in any meetings in the future unless he allowed it.
Zhang Yueli was fed up with this so-called meeting, so she was naturally willing to comply.
Zhang Zhengyang saw that the idle people in the house were gone, and slowly walked out of the inner hall and sat on the Taishi chair.
"Father!" Zhang Tao saw the comer and hurriedly bowed.
"What I ordered has been implemented!" Zhang Zhengyang picked up the wooden cup on the side and took a sip.
"I have proposed Ye Gucheng to be the city lord, and at the same time remove the clan name of my clan, and now he is a soldier of the new city, but... Zhang Tao hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Please also ask my father to tell me the reason, otherwise I really don't feel at ease!"
"I'm afraid you're not just uneasy!" Zhang Zhengyang put down the wooden cup and continued with a smile on his face: "If I didn't guess wrong, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well for several days!"
"Father! I really don't understand the significance of this move? In this way, our Zhang family will exist in name only, and the soldiers and horses we have worked hard to train will gradually become Ye Gucheng's people!"
"What's the reaction from the Xuanyuan clan?" Zhang Zhengyang seemed to change the topic casually.
"Xuanyuan Zhuo, the old horseman, is also strange, he even put all the clansmen under the jurisdiction of Ye Gucheng, and at the same time abolished the clan name, but I think he seems to be a temporary idea. Speaking of this, Zhang Tao couldn't help but pull back the topic again, and continued to ask: "Father, you haven't answered me yet, why do you recommend Ye Gucheng as the city lord, and why do you want our family to become his subordinate?"
"I always thought you were very smart! It seems that I still overestimated you! At least, Xuanyuan Zhuo is much smarter than you!" Zhang Zhengyang sighed, his eyes crossed with a trace of disappointment.
Xuanyuan House.
"Father, I don't know anything, why did you lie to the city lord? Xuanyuan Wuji was confused when he thought of this.
"Does that matter?" Xuanyuan Zhuo seemed to be in a good mood, and rarely showed a smile.
It really doesn't matter anymore!
However, there is one very important thing, thinking of this, Xuanyuan Wuji hurriedly said: "Also, why did you remove our clan name? Our Xuanyuan lineage has been passed down from generation to generation, how can it be cut off in our hands? I don't understand what my father thinks, and the soldiers are also indignant along the way. β
"Let me ask you, what is your surname, and what is the surname of the clansmen?" Xuanyuan's expression suddenly turned cold.
"Naturally, it's Xuanyuan. "Xuanyuan Wuji doesn't know why.
"Since your surname is Xuanyuan, my clan is still Xuanyuan, why do you say that the clan name is removed?"
"But didn't you say that you want to get rid of the clan name?" Xuanyuan Wuji was worthy of a tendon, and he couldn't figure out the reason at all.
Xuanyuan Zhuo sighed deeply and explained carefully: "Wu'er! Now there is more than one line in the city, never forget that there is still the Zhang family eyeing the tiger, don't believe in the so-called alliance, interests are the core! Now it has not turned its face, just because it has not yet involved deep interests, in the future, when everything is on the right track, the Zhang family will have a battle with us, and this battle will determine the true ownership of this city." But not now, therefore, we both need a puppet, a person who can check and balance the balance of the two clans but has no real power, this person must be Ye Gucheng!"
Xuanyuan Zhuo is very grateful to Zhang Tao, if he didn't recommend Ye Gucheng as the city lord, he didn't realize this; since he wants to take over this city in the future, in the name of the Xuanyuan clan, it is not a proper name, but if he adds the soldiers of the new city with the respect of the deputy city lord, it is logical, speaking of which, he also has to thank Ye Gucheng for giving him the position of deputy city lord.
Xuanyuan Wuji seemed to know his father for the first time, his mouth was wide open, and he looked demented.
Seeing this scene, Xuanyuan Zhuo suddenly felt powerless, how can the family prosper if he has such a child! Disappointed, he said in a deep voice: "Whether you accept it or not, this is a fact, and it will definitely happen in the future, this is the mission of Ye Gucheng, and it is also the mission of my clan." β
"What would you do to the City Lord?" Xuanyuan Wuji began to feel that his father was very terrifying, like an emotionless monster.
"After all, Ye Gucheng has contributed a lot to our clan, if he is interested, I will still let Xiu'er accompany him to spend his old age in the future, otherwise, kill him. β
"You want to kill the city lord?" Xuanyuan Wuji was frightened, and said urgently: "He is the destiny of my clan, the god of war in the hearts of the clan, and the clan all admires him, father, how can you... β
"The god of war of our clan is not surnamed Ye. Xuanyuan Zhuo coldly interrupted Xuanyuan Wuji's words, and Yin Yu said: "The god of war of our clan is only surnamed Xuanyuan, never forget this." β
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Wuji felt a cold current hit his whole body.
Zhang Zhai.
After listening to his father's dissection, Zhang Tao suddenly brightened up and was overjoyed.
"It is undeniable that Ye Gucheng is a rare talent in the world, but unfortunately, he is not my clan after all!" Zhang Zhengyang tasted the juice sent by Ye Gucheng again, and sighed lightly: "No matter how delicious the juice is, after all, it is a different kind, and it is not tolerated by water, and no water can tolerate being replaced by juice!"
The golden sun shines lazily on the lake, the breeze blows, and the water is sparkling and golden!
Under the tree, Ye Gucheng sat leisurely on the wooden chair fishing, but Yu Guang glanced to the side from time to time, and said to himself gently: "Fishing is about skills, and cultivating patience. β
Xuanyuan Xiu didn't say anything, as if he was trying his best to restrain something, but his small mouth was already high.
Today, she is very happy, because dinner is her favorite grilled fish, in order to eat fresh grilled fish, you must catch fish by yourself, the location, naturally is an artificially dug lake, the fish fry is Ye Gucheng took people out to sea to catch and raise, after years of training, now has grown a variety of fish species.
The way of fishing is very strange, she has never touched it, Ye Gucheng calls it fishing, a slender wooden pole and a thin line tied to the fish bubbles, with an iron hook made by a blacksmith.
Of course, what surprised her the most was that these things were really easy to catch a big fish! Looking at the fish swimming in the water, she couldn't wait to try, and then, tragedy happened, an hour passed, Ye Gucheng's wooden barrel was filled with dozens of fish, but her wooden barrel was empty, as if laughing at her own incompetence.
Burst!
The water splashed, and a fish close to the size of two palms was caught by Ye Gucheng again, only to see him proudly tear the big fish off the hook and throw it into the bucket, pretending to sigh: "Hey! The barrels are almost full, what can I do!"
As he spoke, he put the hook on the bait again, threw it into the water, and fished again.
Xuanyuan Xiu's appearance began to become frenzied, pursing his lips, opening his nose, his cheeks were as red as apricots, his eyes were shining with flames, and the jade hand holding the fishing rod was squeezing tighter and tighter, eager to pinch it.
"Calm down! Calm down! Anger won't solve the problem! You have to learn more from me, calm down, otherwise the fish will be scared away by you, and how can you take the bait!" Ye Gucheng laughed very treacherously, because he found that in the matter of fishing, he once again perfectly crushed the other party! What is it to be able to fight, no matter how good the arrow is, and being able to fish is the king!
Xuanyuan Xiu was already extremely unhappy, and when he saw Ye Gucheng's villain's appearance, he directly exploded his lungs, this fish can't be caught!
I saw Xuanyuan Xiu stand up for a moment, and immediately, pulled up the fishing rod and held it horizontally, with both hands, with a snap, he broke it stiffly, held one end tightly, rushed forward a few steps, and flicked his toes hard, the person jumped up like a flying swallow, his eyes were like electricity, and the sharp point of the broken rod was aimed at the water and stabbed down.
"Xiu'er!" This series happened too quickly and too suddenly, so that Ye Gucheng didn't have time to react at all, and when he came back to his senses, Xuanyuan Xiu had already plunged into the water.
Ye Gucheng panicked and regretted it! Knowing that the other party had a strong nature, he still made fun of her like this! In a panic, he hurriedly threw away the fishing rod and wanted to run towards the lake.
Xuanyuan Xiu fell into the water quickly, and surfaced faster! I saw her happily raising the wooden pole in her hand and smiling: "Look, Lonely City, I also caught a fish!"
In the sun, the wooden pole strung two fish in a row, still struggling and swinging in vain because they were not dead.
The fragrance of trees and flowers permeates the spring day, filling all the emptiness between heaven and earth, and in the water, there is a delicate dust, muttering innocence and fullnessγγγγγγ
Ye Gucheng looked a little stupid, and in a trance, he felt that all the troubles in the world were gradually moving away, and in his eyes and heart, there was only that smile like a treasure.
This is the life he wants! Simple, comfortable! There is no war, and he will be with him in peace and stability until he grows old!
