Chapter 33: Departure
Huo Yun smiled, "When you first met me, you boldly cooperated with me, and the idea was unique and creative, which is exactly what business people need; Again, you boldly tried to use fake death medicine to hide the world and leave King Jing's mansion, and successfully got rid of the supervision of King Jing's personal guards, and your thoughts and courage are not like what a fifteen or sixteen-year-old daughter should have. ”
He put the teacup in his hand lightly and said,
"The most important thing is your mind. Since they all chose to die to escape the concubine selection ceremony that had the opportunity to soar to heaven, can Huo Mou think that a free, prosperous and wealthy life is what Miss Ling, or Miss Xiahou, yearns for the most? ”
A life of freedom and prosperity...... That's not what she, a young man in the 21st century, yearns for the most! Ling Ling couldn't help but change his opinion of Huo Yun again from the bottom of his heart, he could find out that she was Xiahou Ling, and that kind of strange fake death medicine, or a business tycoon in the Mingyan Continent, the key was that she had a good character and was handsome!
After thinking about it, so many people with halos are her cheap father-in-law, she can make a lot of money!
"I've never been Xiahou Ling, I've been just Ling Ling from the beginning. Since Boss Huo is bold enough to recognize people and takes such a fancy to Ling Ling, what reason do I have to refuse to live the life I yearn for? ”
She said with a smile in her eyes and an eyebrow.
"Haha, okay, then from today on, you will be my Huo Yun's righteous daughter."
Ling Ling was stunned, so hastily admitted?
"Uh...... You can't do any ritual or anything like that, so you can recognize it? ”
"Oh, look at me! I'm glad to forget about such a big thing......"
Ling Ling was a little embarrassed, was this still the smart and calm Huo Yun? The contrast between before and after is a bit big!
"In this way, here today, you give me a cup of tea first, and it will be decided with me! After a while, when I get to Longyun Gate, I will gather everyone in the gate and hold a formal ceremony for you! ”
"Longyunmen?"
"You see, I forgot to say that Longyunmen is the headquarters where I manage all the scattered forces in the Mingyan Continent, and I am the master of Longyunmen. Okay, there will be an opportunity to tell you about these things in the future, Ling Ling, you should serve tea quickly! ”
Huo Yun had a father's smile on his face, and he was sitting precariously waiting for Ling Ling to serve tea, and the two mustaches on his lips made him look a little funny.
Ling Ling smiled helplessly, found a new teacup, poured hot tea, raised the teacup with both hands, and knelt in front of Huo Yun.
"Ling Ling, meet my father-in-law."
"Okay."
Huo Yun was pleased to take Ling Ling's tea.
His wife and children were killed, her parents were killed, and there were so many similarities in her body that she resembled him.
The moment he drank Ling Lingjing's tea, Huo Yun thought about giving her the best.
……
After that, Huo Yun let Glory sneak into the inn and take all of Ling Ling's belongings back to the mask shop.
Behind the mask shop was an extremely hidden Great Villa, and Huo Yun arranged a room for Ling Ling to live in temporarily.
Listening to him, he will stay in Night City for a long time this time, because he is the first merchant in the Mingyan Continent, and he is originally from the White Seal Kingdom, as a guest, Bai Yixiu invited him to participate in the concubine selection ceremony.
Huo Yun told her that the day after the concubine selection ceremony, they would leave for the Longyunmen headquarters.
She was not in a hurry, after recognizing Huo Yun as her father-in-law, Huo Yun ordered Glory to hand over some information about Longyunmen and all the branches of the Mingyan Continent to her to familiarize herself with.
She used this time to jot down the information.
Huo Yun's commercial power is all over the Mingyan Continent, all the names are Longyunmen, Longyunmen is headquartered in the north of Jiangnan, outside the border of the Baixi Kingdom, in a region that does not belong to any country, the headquarters is as big as a small city, and all the elite members of Longyunmen on the Mingyan Continent come and go.
Among the elite members, among them, the Quartet Guardian is the second only person in the Longyun Gate after Huo Yun.
They are talents cultivated by Huo Yun, and they were arranged by Huo Yun in the four directions of the Mingyan Continent, and each of them was in charge of one of the forces for Huo Yun.
On one side are all the forces in other countries east of the White Seal Kingdom, and all the people in the Longyunmen area in the east area, except for Huo Yun, all obey a man named Qi Yi, Qi Yi is twenty years old, has a smart mind, and has a unique vision, and has made the forces of Longyunmen's Oriental Commerce and other forces prosperous.
And the second party is the other national forces of Longyunmen in the south of the White Seal Kingdom, where there is also a general manager like Qi Yi, Chu Bo, who is as old as Qi Yi, and his ability to act is not weaker than Qi Yi.
In the same way, the person in charge of the forces in Ewest was a woman named Yan Yun who was twenty years old a year; The person in charge of the forces in the north is a man of the same age as Qi Yi and Chu Bo, named Han Tian.
And Huo Yun is mainly in charge of all the forces in Baixi's country.
Ling Ling couldn't help but admire Huo Yun from the bottom of his heart, he could really be described by the words "rich and rivaling the country", he could make the industry so big, and the four guards cultivated by his subordinates were all one in a million.
She couldn't help but feel empty in her heart, she was standing on such a high platform as Huo Yun's righteous daughter, if she didn't let herself reach and surpass the strength of the Quartet, I am afraid, she would not have the face to recognize this righteous father.
And in the face of this challenge, Ling Ling actually had a strong desire in her heart, she must make herself strong, for the sake of freedom, for the sake of glory and wealth, and for the sake of those who treat her sincerely.
So during this time, the lights in Ling Ling's room were always on until late at night, and when she got up during the day, she sat at the table and read books about Longyunmen, she had to use the shortest time to understand all the matters of Longyunmen.
She keeps reading books every day, firstly, to make rapid progress, and secondly, to prevent herself from having free time to think about that person and those things......
A month later
That night, after reading the book, she climbed onto the roof and watched the sky in a daze.
She was used to the night city overlooking the Snow Ning Pavilion, but now that the height was more than half lower, she was really not used to it.
But when I think of Xue Ning Pavilion...... Although she has been burned by her, as long as she thinks of the first day of the first month, she will feel uncomfortable.
As long as she thinks of the handsome face that can't be erased in her mind, she will panic.
Especially tonight.
Huo Yun went to the palace with glory and participated in the concubine selection ceremony as a guest secretary.
Ling Ling hugged his knees, his eyes were hollow, and his lips were pursed.
I don't know, what will happen at today's concubine selection ceremony, who will marry the emperor? I don't know if that gentle Nangong Lingyu will marry someone she likes, and ......
I'm afraid tonight, he will have a princess, could it be her......
The more she thought about it, the more confused she became, only to think that the roof tonight made her more and more annoying!
She simply got up and climbed down, and continued to read at night.
On the second day, Ling Ling and Jinrong packed their things early in the morning, got into the carriage, and followed Huo Yun and his party to leave.
When passing by the streets of Night City, the results of the concubine selection ceremony in the palace last night were also posted on the imperial list.
Because Bai Yixiu ascended the throne for a year, the harem was deserted, and the people he accepted as concubines were Murong Xue, Shangguan Qiang'er, Nangong Lingyu and the daughters of two other important ministers of the court.
And the hottest thing in the night city today is nothing more about King Jing Bai Feiye.
On the imperial list, there is no information about Princess Jing.
