Chapter 212
Shui Chengxing's face was like a stone sculpture without showing a trace of heart, but he and Wen Dengrong looked at each other from afar and knew that the general trend had gone. I never thought that after months of painstaking planning, I finally promoted a huge forced marriage seizure, and it was so silently destroyed by a proprietor who had never met before.
Seeing Shui Ling'er smiling like a flower, Yingying's eyes scanned Zhang Zhao's direction from time to time, Wen Dengrong only felt that an evil fire in his chest could not be suppressed and rose up, he stood up and raised his glass to Shui Chengxuan and forced a smile: "Uncle Shui, the little nephew was in a hurry for a while, please forgive me." ”
"Hey, the virtuous nephew is also very kind, and what you said is indeed reasonable, what a crime. Wen Dengrong raised his glass and drank it but did not sit down immediately, but turned his head to Zhang Zhao: "Zhang Zhangzhao, are there still some things between the two of us that have not been resolved?"
Zhang Zhao withdrew his gaze on Shui Ling'er, and looked at Wen Dengrong with a puzzled face: "Young Master Wen, why don't I know what else I have to do with you?" ”
Wen Dengrong said hatefully: "Just now you want me to say the method first, and then you can say your method." Now that I've said it, it's your turn. ”
Everyone who was talking in a low voice stopped talking, and anyone could hear that Wen Dengrong was looking for an opportunity to take revenge. Now, of course, no one can come up with better conditions than the Sea Devil, and whatever Zhang Zhao originally wanted to say was in vain.
"Huh...... It turns out that this is still the case, Wen Gongzi, don't you see that everything has been resolved? Why do you want me to say it again?" Wen Dengrong didn't hear the deep meaning in Zhang Zhao's words at all: "That's okay, you say it and listen to it, just make everyone laugh." ”
"Master Wen, I don't think you can do things too absolutely, and you have to leave room for others at all times, so I won't talk about it. Zhang Zhao stood up and raised his glass to him: "Let's get acquainted with each other, why do you have to embarrass anyone?"
Wen Dengrong's eyes were red as if he was about to spurt blood: "Then what's the matter, everyone is waiting to hear your good idea, why are you pushing like this? Could it be that you are just talking nonsense?"
Zhang Zhao sighed heavily: "Gongzi Wen, do you have to say it?" Wen Dengrong's face turned purple and gloomy and said: "Of course, the embarrassing things are all found by yourself, and you can't run away if you want to." ”
Nodding silently, Zhang Zhao sat down without saying a word, and then looked at Wen Dengrong and smiled without saying a word. Everyone in the hall also stopped and watched with bated breath, all wanting to hear how he could respond.
Wen Dengrong waited for a long time but didn't see him speak, so angry that his voice even changed his tone: "Zhang Zhangzhao, are you so untrustworthy in the public?
Shui Ling'er's wonderful eyes fell on Zhang Zhao, and she couldn't think of a way to help him exonerate, seeing that everyone in the hall was staring at Zhang Zhao with contempt, her heart was extremely sad.
"Okay, since Gongzi Wen is desperately requesting, then I will do what you want......" Zhang Zhao stood up again and looked around at everyone and smiled: "But didn't you hear it clearly just now? Why do you have to say it again?"
Wen Dengrong suppressed his anger and gritted his teeth and sneered: "Zhang Zhangzhao, are you pretending to be crazy and stupid again? We all hear it clearly, when have you ever said your idea?"
Everyone in the hall let out a burst of soft snorts, Shui Chengxuan saw his daughter's anxious expression, sighed in his heart, and was just about to say something to stop him, when he heard Zhang Zhao say loudly: "Young Master Wen is young, is there something wrong with his ears? You didn't hear what this cuckoo girl said just now?"
In the midst of the uproar, Wen Dengrong couldn't help but look up to the sky and smile: "Let everyone judge the theory, who is wrong?" He raised his voice with mockery on his face: "Are you saying that your idea is the same as the conditions that Miss Cuckoo just said?"
"Well, how do you understand that it's exactly the same. Zhang Zhaoru sighed with relief: "If I say it again, it won't be interesting for everyone to listen to it, Gongzi Wen, don't you say?"
Wen Dengrong was so angry that he almost vomited blood: "Zhang Zhangzhao...... You...... "You dare to say it again in front of the cuckoo girl, your idea is the same as what she just said?"
Zhang Zhao nodded and smiled easily: "Dare, what don't you dare, my idea is her idea, what I wanted to say at the beginning was the same as her, how many times do you ask, I still answer this way." ”
"Okay, okay, count you ruthlessly, today really opened my eyes to Wen Dengrong. Wen Dengrong was a little confused by Zhang Zhao, he forced his chest to roll and asked: "If the Sea Devil doesn't agree with your so-called ideas, what are you going to do?"
Zhang Zhao's face was full of helplessness: "How come? Wen Gongzi must have drunk too much wine, how many times do you want me to say it? My idea is her idea, I will agree to what I want to do with the Sea Devil, you still don't understand?"
"Who drank too much? Who drank too much?" Wen Dengrong shouted out the question in everyone's hearts: "Zhang Zhangzhao, how dare you speak out in front of so many people?
When Shui Chengxuan heard this, he hurriedly got up and stopped: "Okay, no one should mention this matter again." Wen Dengrong ignored Zhang Zhao and shouted: "Cuckoo girl, this madman said that you Sea Devil will obey his words, are you just going to let it go?"
If Zhang Zhao offended the Sea Devil because of his nonsense, the consequences would be really unimaginable. Wen Dengrong deliberately said this, obviously with the intention of provocative, and when everyone was disturbing, Du Juan slowly stood up.
"What he said, of course, we all up and down the Sea Devil must obey. Wen Gongzi, because this madman you are pointing at is the true owner of our Sea Devil. ”
"Poof......" Wen Dengrong, who was severely injured, suddenly spewed out a cloud of red blood mist, and most of the people in the hall were also choked by the wine and coughed in a low voice: "What? What did she just say? This kid is really the owner of the Sea Devil?"
Everything in front of him was spinning, and the dizzy Wen Dengrong faintly knew that he had been led into a huge trap by Zhang Zhao, and he muttered to himself regardless of his qi and blood: "This is impossible, you colluded to deceive me, you have already colluded to ......"
Zhang Zhao didn't look at him, and saluted Shui Chengxuan respectfully: "Uncle Shui, it's definitely not that Zhang Zhao deliberately concealed it, I haven't had a chance to see you these days, not to mention that if I say it clearly on the spot, it will be really unconvincing, so I let the cuckoo girl do this." ”
"Water Sect Master, the owner doesn't know that the Sea Devil blocking the road will bring a lot of trouble to the Xuanshui Palace, this is all the fault of the cuckoo, please don't misunderstand the owner. If you doubt the identity of the cuckoo, you can send someone to the Xuan Water Area to find out......"
Tong Chenghai hurriedly got up and clarified: "Sect Master, don't worry, junior brother has seen this cuckoo girl before, and there are always six sea demons around her boat, so she can't be wrong." ”
In the whispers of everyone, Wen Dengrong, who had no face to stay in the hall for a few more moments, turned pale and staggered and was helped away by several guards. Although Shui Chengxuan was surprised by the change in Zhang Zhao's identity, he nodded with a smile after thinking for a moment: "Virtuous nephew, please sit down, how can this kind of thing be fake?"
A little-known boy suddenly became the overlord of the sea, and of course the merchants in Xuanshui City came close to toast. Zhang Zhaolai did not refuse to drink until the glass was dry, and his bold demeanor made everyone admire.
"Brother Zhang Zhao, it's wise that we didn't fight with you. Zheng Yunxian and Bai Shaohua stepped forward to drink respectively, and Li Qisi also smiled and raised his glass: "This brother, you are really ruthless, you don't even move your hands, just with one mouth, you vomited blood from the guy who was always instigating behind your back, it's really happy." ”
When the celebration was over, Shui Ling'er thanked everyone who came to congratulate and left first. The elders of the Xuanshui Palace stayed in the hall to discuss matters, and the rest left one after another to go back to wait for the news of going to sea.
Seeing that Shui Ling'er's face was calm and not as happy as expected, Zhang Zhao couldn't help muttering in his heart, could it be that he concealed his identity to make her unhappy. He was about to go back to the guest room when he was stopped by Miao Yan, who was waiting outside the hall.
"Boy, you wait a minute. Seeing that the God of Medicine had something to say to Zhang Zhao alone, Feng Gongzi and the others hurriedly bowed and retired. When they walked away, Miao Yan beckoned to Zhang Zhao: "Come on, Xiao Ling'er wants to see you." ”
"It's so scheming, I said how do you always beat around the bush so that the girl doesn't have to worry, it turns out that you also arranged this hand. Even a few of our old guys looked away, you kid actually has such a deep family background. ”
"But how can you get in touch with the Sea Devils? As far as the old man knows, no one has ever dared to command those fellows. Zhang Zhao hurriedly explained with a smile: "Senior Miao, in fact, the juniors just learned about the Sea Devil before they came here, and they didn't listen to me for everything, but wanted me to do me a favor." ”
The two walked into the side hall, and several worshippers and three white-robed old men looked at Zhang Zhao with curious eyes. Zhang Zhao quietly walked into the room, Shui Ling'er raised her head and looked at him silently, her eyes contained a trace of resentment.
Zhang Zhao looked at Shui Ling'er and comforted softly: "Ling'er, I didn't mean to hide it from you, but I was afraid that you wouldn't believe it." Now everything is all right, why are you still not happy?"
"Zhang Zhangzhao, you can hide it from me, but why did you only make such a request to my father?" Shui Ling'er seemed a little embarrassed when she said this: "What a fool, I missed a great opportunity." ”
Only then did Zhang Zhao understand what she meant: "Ling'er, I thought about taking this opportunity to propose to your father, but if I do that, it will inevitably make them think that I am taking advantage of others." ”
"You also know that the head of the family has arranged for me to have a family affair, and that feeling is very uncomfortable. I didn't want you to feel a little bit reluctant in this matter, so I made that request. ”
"On that day in Hongfu City, the lord of Hongcheng offered to accept me as his righteous son, if it weren't for the concern that he was plotting for the inheritance of your family, maybe I would have agreed on the spot. But I realized later that you and I never need to be a good match. ”
"Whether I'm an ordinary disciple of Lingxiao or have a deep family background, you never took this to heart at first, if I took this opportunity to rush to propose, I'm really sorry for you. ”
"I can now understand Mr. Zhuo's mood in the Nine Shadows in the past, it's not that you have to give you something is enough, but that you have endured so many difficulties for me, how can I leave you with a little regret?"
"So I want to work hard to climb to the top of the Five Profound Realms, propose to your father at a moment of great attention, so that you can marry me in style. ”
Shui Ling'er looked at the confident Zhang Zhao obsessively, and felt the sudden masculinity on his body, and couldn't help but feel a little confused. Hearing his last sentence, his face immediately flushed: "Zhang Zhangzhao, aren't you afraid that you will run out of money and money when the time comes?"
Zhang Zhao smiled at her: "Of course I thought about it, even if I didn't get ahead, your father agreed to my request anyway." It's a big deal to let you choose by yourself when the time comes, and the result will be the same anyway. ”
Shui Ling'er couldn't help but feign and said: "I'm really ashamed, you said a lot of things to coax people, it turns out that you have already thought of a way out." Seeing Zhang Zhao's smugness, she hurriedly changed the topic: "Then why don't you ask for Tianyi Holy Water by the way?
Zhang Zhao caught a glimpse of her cunning gaze and couldn't help but smile: "I don't want Tianyi Holy Water for Senior Sister Mo, no matter who is injured, if I can help, I will definitely help." Since that thing is so important to the Xuanshui Palace, how can I open my mouth to ask for it without any importance. ”
Shui Ling'er bit her lip and smiled: "Okay, your answer makes this girl very satisfied, the matter of Tianyi Holy Water is on me, but you have to remember what you just said, don't admit it when you go out." ”
With the assistance of the Sea Devil, everything in Xuanshui City quickly returned to normal, and Shui Chengxuan also made an unexpected decision to assign the decision-making power of most of the business in Xuanshui Palace to everyone in the door.
As Wen Dengrong said, it is too cumbersome to report everything, as long as the various businesses can be handed over to the immortal crystals on time under the control of the Xuanshui Palace, it doesn't really matter who makes the decision. The whole thing went quite smoothly, and even Shui Chengxing's son was divided into several businesses.
"Zhang Zhangzhao, my father said that he could send you Tianyi holy water, so I should thank you for your kindness. Shui Ling'er's face flushed when she relayed this, and she also remembered Shui Chengxuan's next sentence: "Good daughter, don't worry, this is not your dowry, let that kid rest assured, what I promised will always count." ”
Feng Gongzi and his group of young people have been gone for many days, Zhang Zhao originally planned to take the holy water to say goodbye, but after careful questioning, he learned that this drop of holy water still has to wait for the Xuanshui Palace to send someone to the Wanli Ice Plain to find it.
"Uncle said that he once saw a drop of holy water that was about to take shape, so he brought someone to fetch it. Shui Ling'er rolled her eyes: "Zhang Zhangzhao, otherwise let's go around with us, I've never been to the ice field." ”
The three white-robed old men hurriedly spoke out to dissuade: "That's not good, the cold air on the ice field is bone-chilling, even we find it unbearable, you are just recovering from your illness, you should wait at home." ”
"Three grandfathers, with this dress he sent, Ling'er must have no problem. Shui Ling'er shook the colorful skirt on her body: "Let's go and have a look, if you feel uncomfortable, Ling'er will come back immediately." ”
