Chapter 311: Blue Dragon City Dinner (3)
It's a pity that this time, the people of Qinglong City are destined to be disappointed, the future of Qinglong City is bright, and it will gradually move towards glory, but these, Zhao Yi is not destined to be the witness.
He had already decided that he would no longer be the lord of the city, and the rest of his life was short, as if he had no energy to accompany the Blue Dragon City to create the future together.
Yes, it's time to entrust the future of Qinglong City to the younger generation.
Zhao Yi raised his right hand and waved it in the air, signaling everyone to be quiet and listen to him.
The inside of the main hall was silent for an instant, and a pair of eager eyes stared at their city lord, looking forward to the city lord's next words.
"Next, I want to announce an important decision, before announcing this decision, I have a question I want to ask you, Qingyue, that is, the acting city lord during this time, her performance during this period of time is obvious to everyone, you can objectively evaluate her behavior, is she worthy of the position of the lord of the city?"
For Qingyue's governance of Qinglong City, it is naturally a good review, she was originally a person with outstanding ability, if she hadn't been carried away by love and love, I am afraid that she would not be what she is today, her ability has been unanimously recognized by Qinglong City.
Qingyue couldn't help but chuckle in his heart when he heard this question, why would his father ask such a question on such a grand occasion?
What is certain is that Zhao Yi is definitely not asking such a question to question her ability, but to make a foreshadowing for what she is going to say next.
Qingyue's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, she always felt that something big was going to happen, and her eyelids were beating hard, she suddenly became cramped and uneasy, but her uneasiness didn't last long, and Zhao Yi spoke again.
"Time flies so fast, today's Qinglong City, is no longer the Qinglong City I am familiar with, that day, on the way to escort me back to the City Lord's Mansion, I took a closer look at the current Qinglong City, and found that the changes are really big, the salt crispy chicken made by the husband and wife in the south of the city is the most tempting, in the past leisure time, I always like to go there alone to order one, just with strong wine, a good meal, but now there is no trace. The mung bean cake in Wang Kee Pastry Shop is my favorite dessert, and it has changed its taste, the shop is still the same shop, and the boss is still the same boss, but why has it changed its taste? There are too many changes like this, just like the Qinglong City is still the Qinglong City today, but I am no longer the Qingyi I was at the beginning, no matter how unwilling I am to face it, I have to admit that the vicissitudes of life, things are people, many things have changed, I am old, this terrible fact, it's time to admit it honestly. ”
Everyone heard the sadness from Zhao Yi's words, they looked at the old man on the first seat with incredible eyes, as he said, he was old, his beard was white, his body was thin, I don't know when it began, the years have ruthlessly carved the ravines on his body, he is no longer the tall and strong, commanding the mighty appearance, those edges and corners on his body have been gradually smoothed out in the wind and rain.
The people present couldn't help but have a sour nose, and then remembered the scene when he just entered the main hall and shrunk in a wheelchair and was pushed to attend the dinner, and this sad feeling was instantly ignited.
"I'm not young anymore, and ...... And my current body has been tossed and broken, you are not mistaken, when I was in the Holy Doctor Valley, my legs have been abolished, and now these thin legs are like ornaments, without the slightest consciousness, I may not be able to stand up again in my life, and even worse, I have taken the bone erosion acacia, the meridians are broken, and the martial arts are all wasted, and now Qingyi is no different from a wasted person. ”
Zhao Yi thought that it would be extremely difficult for him to say these words, but he never thought that he could finish these words so calmly, which made him feel like a fish in his throat, but in fact, it did not embarrass him as he imagined.
Everyone was amazed!
Before everyone could recover from the shock, they heard Zhao Yi say again: "I believe that Qinglong City will have a more brilliant future, even if it is ...... Even without my testimony, I know that with my crippled body, I can no longer serve as the lord of a city, nor can I bring any benefit to Qinglong City, so it is better to let go happily and leave the future of Qinglong City to you to create. I, Qing Yi, officially announced that I will entrust the position of the city lord of Qinglong City to the next city lord Qingyue, hoping that she can devote herself to her duties and lead Qinglong City to prosperity. ”
After Zhao Yi said so many words in one breath, the whole person was so tired that he collapsed, his chest rose and fell violently, even if it was just a conversation, it had consumed most of his energy.
There was a deathly silence in the hall for a long time, and everyone was stunned, their eyes widened, and the movements of their hands stopped completely, as if they had been pointed at by someone.
What the? What did they just hear?
Is it true? Their city lord just said that he wanted to completely drag the future of Qinglong City into the hands of another person, did he really not plan to want Qinglong City?
They once listened to the villain's slander, misunderstood their city lord, and expelled him, completely breaking his heart, for some reason, the back of the city lord when he left Qinglong City became extremely clear in everyone's mind, and that thin figure was so distressing.
They collectively turned their backs on the city lord who had worked hard for them for most of their lives, which made him heartbroken, but when their Qinglong City was in dire straits again, it was their city lord who came to save them, completely ignoring the evil words of the year.
When they knew the truth of the 'plague' back then, and knew that everything was a misunderstanding between them, the entire Qinglong City fell into a haze of guilt, from Lord Qingyue to Buyi in the market, all of them regretted it, and they had been looking forward to their city lord being able to return to them and give them a chance to kneel in front of him and ask for forgiveness.
However, there was no more chance, their city lord left at that time, and he would never come back, and it was they who personally expelled the wise and martial city lord from Qinglong City completely.
"Lord of the city, don't do it!"
An old man in the crowd shouted hoarsely.
With this shout, the old man fell to his knees.
Immediately afterwards, more and more people shouted this sentence heartbreakingly, and then fell to their knees one after another.
The hall was dark and oppressive, Zhao Yi closed his eyes depressedly, and two lines of tears quietly slipped from the corners of his eyes, fell to the placket of his clothes, and then slowly faded away.
"I've made up my mind, so I don't need to say more."
Zhao Yi dropped this sentence, and turned to Mo Yuan and Yin Lingyue: "Xiao Yuan, Yue'er, you two should send you as a teacher to rest, I'm tired." ”
Mo Yuan nodded, Yin Lingyue also got up neatly, no one paid attention to the kneeling people behind the main hall, just pushed Zhao Yi, and faded out of everyone's field of vision little by little.
