Chapter 352: A Sudden Invitation
"You want me to go to Dingzhou as a 'bounty hunter' in the Northlands?"
In the reception hall of the inner courtyard of the Valley Manor, Chen Ying sat in the first place with a surprised expression.
"That's right, it's just a formality on behalf of the Northland Taishou Mansion!"
General Lei sat in the guest seat, and explained with a relaxed smile: "There is a group of Jiangyang thieves, led by the three brothers, the strongest is already the congenital strong, and the weakest have the realm of acquired success!" ”
Speaking of this, he subconsciously glanced at Ling Feng, who was sitting not far away, and continued: "This gang of Jiangyang thieves is bold and reckless, they have done a lot of bloody cases in the hinterland of Daqi, and they can't help but flee to Dingzhou when they are wanted by the government!" ”
"The masters sent by the imperial court, as well as the local garrison in Dingzhou, have surrounded this gang of Jiangyang thieves, and invited the governments of several nearby states to send elite people to participate in the encirclement and suppression!"
Tut!
The encirclement and suppression of bullshit, how does it feel like trying to use the heads of that gang of Jiangyang thieves to establish authority, do you really think that others are stupid?
Chen Ying was not polite, and directly expressed his thoughts in his heart, and said angrily: "General Lei, can you tell the truth, so I have a good bottom in my heart!" ”
"That's right, that's what the imperial court wants!"
General Lei's attitude was also frank, nodding and smiling: "No matter what you think in your heart, you have to give face to the court!" ”
Chen Ying nodded in understanding......
"Is there another master besides me?"
It's not a big deal to go and see it, as General Lei said, it's just a formality.
"I'll lead the team this time!"
General Lei's face flashed with joy, and he said in a deep voice: "The rest of the people don't want to mention it, the strongest one has just penetrated one or two strange meridians and eight veins!" ”
Hearing this, Chen Ying didn't ask again......
General Lei's meaning is already quite obvious, he is the face of this 'folk bounty hunter', at least he can't let the surrounding state capitals look down on him.
"When are you leaving?"
He didn't think it was too troublesome, and asked with a smile: "This time I went to Dingzhou, how long does it take to go back and forth?" ”
"Let's go in three days!"
General Lei smiled: "As for the time required to go back and forth, a little relaxation of about a month and a half, even if there are any accidents, it is almost enough!" ”
Chen Ying nodded in agreement......
As far as he knew, it would take about seven or eight days to travel from Beidi City to Dingyuan, the capital of Dingzhou, by light car.
It takes almost half a month to go back and forth, and there is more than half a month to observe the foreign thieves sent by the imperial court, which is more than enough.
In that case, there is nothing to say, and General Lei agreed to meet at the gate of Northland City when he set off, and the matter was settled.
After General Lei left satisfied, Ling Feng, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke: "Owner, do you want me to go with me?" ”
When he said this, his face was full of eagerness.
"Forget it!"
Chen Ying rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You really want to follow, I'm afraid that if General Lei didn't use the masters sent by the imperial court and the surrounding state capitals, he would be captured directly!" ”
Ling Feng grinned and showed two rows of white teeth, his face showing disapproval, obviously not paying much attention to Chen Ying's reminder.
Chen Ying sneered, and said in a light tone: "If there are two or three innate masters besieging you, can you withstand it?" ”
Hearing this, Ling Feng's face changed slightly, and he wanted to reply with a hard voice, 'I can stand it'.
It's just that when he looked at Chen Ying's smiling eyes, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed to speak.
If he was really surrounded by two or three innate masters like Xiong Gang, even if he risked his life, at most he would severely injure one, and he would inevitably die.
Isn't it good to be alive?
"This time, I'll go to Dingzhou for a walk, Brother Ling, you will stay in the manor!"
Seeing that Ling Feng's expression was no longer insisting, Chen Ying said slowly: "The manor is my foundation, and it is also the place where you started, what can you do in the future, the development of the manor here is very important, I don't want to go on a long trip to come back, but the manor has already changed owners!" ”
Ling Feng's expression was shocked, and he said in disbelief: "With the background of the owner of the village, is it possible that who else dares to fight the idea of the manor?" ”
He is not a fool, before choosing to form an alliance with Chen Ying, he naturally has already found out the details of Chen Ying.
The third son of Chen Longcheng, the first powerful town in the North, although he is only a concubine, he does not have to worry about being bullied by outsiders.
Chen Ying's own strength is unfathomable, and with his extraordinary background, no matter which side of the Northland wants to make an idea, he has to weigh it carefully.
"Hehe, what I'm worried about is reaching out to the Gongfu!"
Facing Ling Feng, an ally of the guest qing, Chen Ying chose to tell the truth, and said slowly: "The income here in the manor is quite amazing, and it also produces precious pills continuously, I'm afraid that some people in the mansion can't bear to stretch out their hands indiscriminately!" ”
Hearing this, Ling Feng was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to do......
Although Chen Ying did not explain in detail the disputes within the Zhenbei Mansion, some things can still be guessed.
There are also storytellers here in the Northland, and there are a lot of gossip stories about the inside of the wealthy families, as long as you ponder it a little, you can basically guess the approximate situation.
Ling Feng wasn't really a fool either, since he had already chosen Chen Ying as an ally, he naturally had no intention of jumping ship at will.
At least, Chen Ying, a young master of the public mansion, treats him quite politely, and he does not have a domineering posture, and he has not seen what the powerful son looks like.
"Don't worry, unless you encounter a strong enemy that I can't resist, the control of the manor will definitely not be left behind!"
After just a little pondering, Ling Feng said categorically, and said with a smile: "The strength of the second young master of the Zhenbei Mansion, Chen Wu, is good, if he comes, I will definitely have to 'entertain and entertain', what does the owner think?" ”
"That's great!"
Chen Ying clapped his hands and smiled: "But don't take too many measures, there are still a few powerful inner family fist masters in the public mansion!" ”
It's both a warning and a reminder......
Sure enough, Ling Feng's eyes lit up and he nodded again and again, obviously moving his mind!
Smiling lightly, Chen Ying didn't bother to pay attention to Ling Feng's thoughts, and after spending half a day explaining it well, he returned to the mansion with the maid bonus.
Anyway, this time I went to Dingzhou on behalf of the north to testify, and I always had to talk to the big guy in the house.
……
The news of Chen Ying's return to the house reached the ears of the master of the mansion as soon as possible.
"Why don't you stay in the Valley Manor and suddenly go back home?"
The housewife of the mansion is used to life without Chen Ying, and she is very dissatisfied with Chen Ying's sudden return to the house.
No one can answer......
However, Chen Xiong, who had been confined to the mansion for a period of time, rushed to the courtyard where Chen Ying lived when he heard the news.
"Third brother and third brother, I heard that Ling Feng joined the manor?"
I didn't come back for a long time, and the small courtyard where Chen Ying lived was naturally full of dust, and at this time, Hua Hong was directing the bottom maids in the house to clean, and Chen Ying took a clean chair and sat at the door of the small courtyard.
Hearing Chen Xiong's anxious inquiry, Chen Ying said with a smile: "Yes, there are too few masters on the valley manor who can sit and suppress Xiaoxiao, so I can't do everything myself, or be restrained in the manor and be unable to move, right?" ”
"Isn't there still me?"
Chen Xiong pointed to his nose and said dissatisfiedly: "Why, the third brother can't look down on my strength?" ”
"I can see it, but Aunt Zhao may not agree!"
Waving his hand, Chen Ying said angrily: "If you kid really live in the valley manor, doesn't it mean that you will follow me in the future, and Aunt Zhao will agree?" ”
Hearing this, Chen Xiong was immediately deflated......
Chen Ying's words are to the point.
According to his observations and opinions, Aunt Zhao has great expectations for her own son Chen Xiong, and naturally she is not happy for Chen Xiong to follow him.
are all concubines, what kind of fame can they make?
In other words, in recent times, Chen Xiong has been confined to the house and unable to go out, and it is estimated that there is such a meaning.
Aunt Zhao was worried that Chen Xiong was completely enveloped by Chen Ying, so she had such an action, which made Chen Ying cry and laugh a little.
Of course, he didn't mean to ridicule and ridicule, a mother's heart.
"What are you doing when you're frustrated?"
Seeing Chen Xiong's dejected look, Chen Ying said with a smile: "It's not that you won't be allowed to go to the manor in the future, if you want to find Ling Feng to learn, he won't refuse!" ”
"I'm afraid that the number of times I can go to the manor in the future will be less and less!"
Chen Xiong's face was depressed, he was still sullen, and muttered: "My mother plans to send me to Pegasus Hall, and I may have less time to come back in the future!" ”
"Pegasus?"
Chen Ying looked puzzled and asked curiously: "What kind of existence is this, why have you never heard of it before?" ”
Seeing Chen Ying like this, the frustration on Chen Xiong's kid's face was suddenly swept away, and he said triumphantly: "Third brother doesn't know, I heard my mother say that Pegasus Hall is amazing, it is the Jianghu sect that has risen the fastest in the northwest region of the empire in recent decades!" ”
Jianghu sect!
Chen Ying's heart was shocked when he heard this, his eyes were blazing and he looked at Chen Xiong, who was dancing with his eyebrows flying and his face proud, and put on a posture of listening to his ears.
Sure enough, his gesture aroused Chen Xiong's interest in talking, and he said happily: "Listen to my mother, the masters of Pegasus Hall are endless, and looking at the entire northwest region of the empire, they are all among the most powerful forces!" ”
"Let's hear it, what are the masters in Pegasus Hall, and what is their strength?"
Chen Ying said curiously: "Such a force should be famous, why haven't I heard of it before?" ”
"Listen to my mother, the hall master and several deputy hall masters of the Pegasus Hall, as well as several elders, are either the peak of the day after tomorrow or the innate powerhouse, they are very powerful!"
Chen Xiong explained with great interest: "Listen to my mother, Pegasus Hall used to develop mainly in the western part of the empire, and now there are signs of expansion in the north!" ”
Although the explanation was not very clear, Chen Ying did not break the casserole and asked to the end, but just smiled: "The opportunity is rare, you kid have to take advantage of it this time, don't waste the great opportunity!" ”
"Of course, as soon as I go, I will be able to worship under the master of Pegasus Hall, and my strength will definitely increase rapidly in the future!"
Chen Xiong glanced at Chen Ying and said proudly: "Third brother also has to work hard, don't be overtaken by me in three or two clicks......"
