In the living room, the Xia housekeeper of the Tie family sat on a chair, leisurely sipping tea and eating snacks.

The steward of the third-class family and the patriarch of the fourth-class family are in some cases reciprocal. For example, now, in front of the fourth-rank family palace patriarch at the bottom, Steward Xia put on a posture of equal status for you and me.

Although Gong Qiong's heart was unhappy, he couldn't have an attack. The Tie family is a veritable upstream third-class family, and if they want to deal with themselves, they can do it with their eyes closed.

"Steward Xia, you came over early in the morning, and it really scared me. I wonder if you have something important to discuss with me when you came this morning? ”

"Discuss? That's right, if it's a different person, the word is not used correctly. Last night, my lord called me into his study and talked with me all night.

It wasn't until the rooster crowed that we finished talking. And the main content of our conversation last night was your palace family. ”

Speaking of this, Steward Xia glanced at Gong Qiong deliberately. He wanted to see some clues in Gong Qiong's eyes, so that he could prepare for his next words.

At this moment, an abrupt voice made Gong Qiong, whose expression was changing, stand up with a smile in an instant, and took the initiative to walk towards the door of the living room.

This change made Steward Xia's face not look good. What should have been smooth sailing may be complicated by this change.

"Uncle Gong, I'm sorry, I'm late. Hey? There are guests, I didn't bother you! ”

"No interruption, I'm just going to introduce you to this big shot." Gong Qiong was very satisfied with Feng Ming's opening remarks, which was really leaky.

"This is the steward of the Iron Family, Xia Ming.

This is the military advisor of the Jinling City Military Region of the Southern Xuanwu Realm, Feng Ming.

It is said that the two are also very fateful, and they both have a clear word in their names. ”

"Hello, Steward Xia."

"Hello."

The attitudes of the two men are in stark contrast. One is modest and courteous, and the other has no one in his eyes.

"Steward Xia, Fengming Military Division is a new star in the army, and he has been unanimously praised by the marshals of the military department. Prince Zhuge and Prince Xu also admired him, otherwise, he would not have been invited by Zhuge Ye to participate in the action of Haiwei Mansion. ”

Gong Qiong's words made Xia Ming's eyes roll. Originally, I saw that he was young and didn't want to pay more attention to him, but who let him get involved with the marshal and the prince of Zhuge ?

"Wait, Gong Family Master, what did you just say his name?" Xia Ming was just about to change his attitude towards Feng Ming, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered something.

"Fengming, what's wrong?"

"It turned out that he injured the young master Tie Feng and annoyed the third young master Tie Hong. Hum! I have something to do today, otherwise, I will definitely capture him back to the Tie family and let him taste the bitter fruits of offending the Tie family. ”

Xia Ming's words not only offended Feng Ming, but also made Gong Qiong very faceless. It's a palace family here, don't you organize the language before you speak?

On the territory of the palace family, if you want to arrest people, you can arrest people, and if you want to train people, you can train people. Does this also take the Gong family in your eyes?

"Steward Xia, since the Fengming Military Master is in my mansion, he is my guest. As long as he doesn't leave my mansion for a day, then I won't let anyone hurt him, not even your Tie family! ”

Xia Ming was shocked by Gong Qiong's tone, and immediately knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he smiled and said: "This is my natural way, I made a mistake just now, and I ask the palace family master not to take it to heart."

Now we're going to talk about something very important. Can you ask the idlers to stay out of the way? ”

"Feng Ming is not an outsider, just say something! When that's done, I'm going to have breakfast with him. ”

Xia Ming gritted his teeth and suppressed the rising heart fire. Before the master's explanation is completed, he still has to give him some face.

"Hehe, our master knows that your palace family's current situation is not good, and he wants to help you and help you."

"Help us? Hmph, how can there be such a good thing in the world. Just open the skylight and say something! Your time and mine are precious. ”

"Good! The head of the palace family is really a happy person, and dealing with a happy person is a pleasant feeling.

Our lord said that as long as your palace family is attached to our Tie family, our Tie family will not only use resources to cultivate the descendants of your palace family, but also protect your palace family when it is in danger.

Once you are attached to our Iron Family, we promise not to let your Gong Family fall out of the scope of the Fourth-Order Family, and to a certain extent, you can move up slightly. ”

Xia Ming's words made Gong Qiong stunned. If Feng Ming hadn't come, if he hadn't seen the scene last night, maybe he would have listened to what he said just now, and he agreed to the request.

After waiting for a while, Xia Ming spoke again: "Master Gong, what do you think of this proposal?" Please send me a reply, and I'll be able to go back to my life. ”

"I think this proposal is very good, Uncle Gong, you can agree to the Tie family!"

"Huh? What did you say? Gong Qiong's heart was pinched hard by Feng Ming.

"I said you agreed to the Tie family's proposal. However, the signing of the documents can only be done when the old family owner leaves the customs. ”

"This..."Gong Qiong didn't know what to say for a while.

"Hahaha..., Fengming! Your performance this time is very good, and I will pass on your performance today to my master.

Master of the Gong family, juniors are so sensible, you won't be as good as a junior! ”

"Steward Xia, are you challenging my bottom line? You can go back, the Iron Family Master's proposal, please let me think about it for three days. Three days later, I will give you an accurate answer. ”

"Good! Deal. Don't make a decision that will embarrass the two families! Leave! ”

After Xia Ming left, Gong Qiong asked puzzledly, "Fengming Military Master, what do you mean by this?" Aren't you afraid of the Tie family? ”

"Uncle Gong, do you think I'm such a person? Don't you want to think about why I didn't let Gong Fei come in with me? Besides, did you really hear what I just said? ”

Gong Qiong held his chin and recalled carefully. After three breaths, his eyebrows furrowed, and a smile rolled into the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that Uncle Gong, you have found the answer. That's right, the most important thing we lack right now is time. I asked you to promise him a delaying tactic, as for when the old master will leave the customs, isn't it up to us to have the final say? ”

"It's really yours, so quick thinking. Presumably, even if it was an iron pillar, it would not react so quickly. ”

"Uncle Gong, that's not necessarily. There are still a lot of wise men, and I can't hide it for long because I can't hide it for long. ”

"How long do you think you can hide it?"

"Two or three days as fast, a month as slow."

"What! That's too short! Can you think of a way to drag on a little longer? ”

"You can think about it, but can we go to breakfast now? The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers! ”

"Yes, yes, yes, look at my mind, I still haven't cultivated at home! Let's go, let's eat. ”
