Chapter 166: The Governor of Heprovince Arrives
This... Ye Liancheng's face was full of shock, and the automatic brain made up for the brainwashing BGM that was used in the advertisement of the sand sculpture novel.
As everyone's eyes focused, a white-bearded man wearing armor and holding a helmet on his right hand walked into the backyard, followed by four armor soldiers with neat steps, which was really magnificent.
This person is the governor of Hecheng Province? Ye Liancheng swallowed his saliva, although he was a little disgusted with such a bridge, he still felt a substantial oppressive force from the white-bearded man's body.
Only soldiers who have really fought on the battlefield for many years, and who have a lot of blood on their hands, will inadvertently release this sense of oppression to their surroundings.
There is more than one dynasty in Xiniu Hezhou, just like the land under Ye Liancheng's feet now belongs to a dynasty called 'Great Zhou', and Black Stone City and Chaofeng City are both subordinate to the Great Zhou Province.
Governor of Hejiang Province, this official name is not simple as soon as you hear it, simply put, this man is the supreme administrator of Hejiang Province.
All the guests present did not dare to come out, and they couldn't help but lower their heads and didn't dare to look at the terrifying governor of Hejiang Province, and they were also guessing in their hearts when the Su family took the road of the governor of Hejiang Province?
The old lady's eyes lit up, how dare he put on a shelf, as long as the governor of Hezhou Province gave an order, wouldn't his Su family in Chaofengcheng be like a piece of paper, and it would be broken with a stab.
With Su Rui's support, the old lady personally stepped down from the high platform and came to the governor of Heyuan Province with his head bowed.
"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you salute Governor Liu soon!" the old lady commanded to the children of the Su family who followed him.
Liu Zheng saw the thin man behind the old lady, his eyes were slightly dull, and he was about to blurt out subconsciously: "Dragon..."
Su Ze's head, which had been lowered, suddenly raised his head, glared at Liu Zheng, and asked him to forcibly swallow his words back.
"I can't reveal my identity unless I have to." Su Ze's words before leaving sounded in Liu Zheng's mind, which made him realize that he had almost lost his temper just now, so he withdrew his gaze from looking at Su Ze.
Liu Zheng waved his hand at the old lady and said, "Today is the birthday banquet of the old lady, there is no need to act like I am the master, there is no need for these red tapes." β
Only then did she stop the Su family's gesture of giving gifts, and the smile on the old lady's face became even stronger, and she couldn't understand why the governor of the dignified province came back to attend her birthday banquet, just because the ancestors were smoking, and the Su family wanted to be blessed and happy.
Although Liu Zheng said this, the old lady was such a shrewd person, and said complimentarily: "Governor Liu, please go to the high platform and do it." β
Liu Zheng subconsciously glanced at Su Ze, and after nodding, he followed the old lady to the high platform, where there was a vacant seat reserved for him.
Before he sat down, as soon as Liu Zheng stretched out his hand, a soldier behind him came to the old lady with a long box.
"There are some thousand-year-old ginseng here, and I hope to smile at such a thin gift. As soon as the words fell, the armor opened the wooden box, leaking out five ginseng with a little dirt inside.
The old lady smiled and nodded, and personally took the thousand-year-old ginseng in his hand, this ginseng was a little thin compared to the previous birthday gift, but the person who gave the gift attached him a layer of irreplaceable value.
"Sit down, sit down, Governor Liu must be a little tired from coming from afar, so it's better to stay here tonight. β
Liu Zheng sat on the seat with a golden knife, raised his right hand, and refused the old lady's kindness, "The affairs of the army cannot be delayed, after the banquet, I will leave to return, and I ask the old lady to forgive me." β
The old lady showed a regretful look on her face, did not continue to persuade her, and after instructing the maid to serve food to Liu Zheng and the armor behind him, she was polite for a long time before returning to her original position.
"Mother, after today, I'm afraid that everyone in Chaofeng City will be headed by my Su family. Su Rui did not hide the joy on his face, and said excitedly to the old lady.
The old lady's face was also stretched, "Look at your virtue, in the future, with the backer of the governor, how can a mere Chaofeng City tolerate my Su family." β
At this time, the old lady was in a good mood, but in the corner of his eye, he saw a person he didn't want to see the most - Su Rui.
Fortunately, the Governor was right behind him, otherwise the old lady would have started scolding people a long time ago.
"Old Taijun, my marriage contract with Shiyu has been delayed for so long, do you think it's time to do it?" Su Ze said after coming to Lao Taijun's side, his tone was not hurried or slow, as if he was talking to his subordinates.
This made the old lady the most unhappy, a mere waste son-in-law, and dared to speak to himself like this in this tone, "What is the meaning of delaying the marriage contract? It is your honor that our Su family can accommodate you as a son-in-law!"
Su Ze clenched his fists tightly, he gave up a lot of things for Su Shiyu of the Su family, and even his surname, after joining the Su family three years ago, he changed his name to 'Su Rui', I didn't expect to endure it for so long, this Su family is still so excessive!
The old lady wanted to continue to reprimand Su Ze for a few words, but he didn't expect another announcement from the attic: "The dragon envoy has arrived !!"
As soon as the report of the subordinates fell, a group of black-robed people appeared in the backyard, although they wore black robes, but the leader leaked his face, it was a middle-aged man, his eyebrows were extremely rough, and his face was full of anger, and he couldn't help but want to retreat at a glance.
Before the old lady stepped down to greet him, the group of black-robed people came to the high platform in the blink of an eye.
"I wish the old lady a good birthday, the dragon sent me to send tens of billions of orders to help the Su family be promoted to the first family in Chaofeng City!" said the dragon envoy Hei Feng humbly, and then a black-robed man behind him stepped forward and handed a thick scroll to Su Rui.
Above the scroll is tens of billions of orders, and above them are merchant order contracts worth tens of billions of gold and silver in Hezhou Province, with such a contract, even if the remaining three of the four major families join forces, they cannot be the opponents of the Su family.
Looking at the scenes on the high platform, Ye Liancheng almost laughed, but looking at the surprised people around him, Ye Liancheng still forcibly held back his laughter.
"Brother Qi, who is this 'dragon'?" Ye Liancheng asked Qi Ji with an open face asking for advice.
Although he had a rough guess in his heart, Ye Liancheng still had to confirm it, after all, this was not the same as the background of the sand sculpture advertisement in the previous novel.
"Brother Ye, you won't even know about it, right?"
Qi Ji looked at Ye Liancheng with a shocked expression, which made Ye Liancheng scratch his head a little embarrassed, "I have been practicing in the mountains with my master, and I have never asked about these things in the world." β
I see, Qi Ji nodded thoughtfully, and then explained to Ye Liancheng: "The dragon is the metaphor of the Son of Heaven, in addition to the Son of Heaven in the Great Zhou Dynasty, only the first general who has made great achievements on the battlefield can be awarded the title of 'Dragon' by the Son of Heaven. β
"The younger brother has been taught, and it seems that the Su family is indeed going to develop after today. Ye Liancheng sighed, when the emperor of the dynasty was able to allow the first general to be called 'dragon', it was enough to see the emperor's attention to it, this Great Zhou Dynasty has advocated force since the founding of the country, which is why the Iron Sword Sect, a fairy sword sect, can gain a foothold in the dynasty and even control a part of the land.
Qi Ji patted his chest with a frightened face, and after taking a long breath, he said to Ye Liancheng: "Fortunately, our Qi family sent someone here today, otherwise we would have felt better." β
Ye Liancheng nodded, there was only Qi Ji of the Qi family in the backyard, and he didn't see anyone from the other two families. Presumably, after today, the Su family will have to do something to the other two.
But... Ye Liancheng smiled secretly, the Su family didn't know if they could stop today, and Ye Liancheng looked at the high platform again.
As if carried away by the succession of happy events, the old lady's hands had begun to tremble a little, she didn't check the scroll with the contract on it, and she didn't have to worry about the dragon envoy cheating.
Now that the Su family has two big backers, the governor and the dragon, it can be said that they have no worries, and the first thing to do now is to get rid of that waste.
The old lady pulled her granddaughter by her side, and it happened that Su Ze also came over at this time, presumably because she wanted to talk about the marriage contract again, okay, just right, the old lady was laughed angrily, pointed at Su Ze and scolded: "You waste, you have been away from home for three years, and you are still like this when you come back, today my Su family is going to expel your son-in-law from the Su family!"
Su Ze was stunned for a moment, and then took out a red-letter contract from his arms, on which was the marriage contract agreed with the Su family, "But this marriage contract is clearly written, why do you want to regret it now?"
"Su Ze, that's enough!" Su Shiyu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, thinking that she was also fed up with the waste fiancΓ© beside her, she pointed at Ye Liancheng and said: "It's been so long, if you have half of Ye Gongzi, half of it, but look at your current appearance, you still want to be worthy of me?!"
Gow, Ye Liancheng swallowed his saliva, and once again confirmed that Su Shiyu pointed to his hand, No, I just said why didn't I see the villain who robbed my son-in-law's sweetheart, it turned out that the villain was changed to himself?
With Su Shiyu's pointing, the eyes of everyone present fell on Ye Liancheng, and he once again became the focus of the field.
"Shiyu, even you..." Su Ze's face was flushed with pain, he didn't expect his most beloved woman to say such hurtful words, "You must have been with this crazy woman for a long time, and you were led astray by her, right?"
"It's the other way around, it's the other way around!" I didn't expect Su Ze to dare to call himself a 'crazy woman', which made the old lady directly angry, pointing at Su Ze and scolding loudly: "You waste, you shouldn't have made this marriage contract for your father's sake!"
Ignoring the old lady's words, Su Ze still looked at Su Shiyu affectionately, waiting for Su Shiyu's answer. When he returned to the Su family after three years, things were wrong, and even outsiders didn't know that the Su family had a son-in-law, Su Ze's inner pain was conceivable, but he still hoped that the woman in front of him could say the answer he wanted as before.
Su Shiyu's face was full of disgust, and he said coldly, "Su Ze, don't call me Shiyu in the future, I'm disgusted when I hear it." β
These cold words pierced Su Ze's heart like a bayonet, so it is, so it is!
It was himself who was wrong at the beginning! Su Ze suddenly burst out laughing like crazy, and anyone could hear the helplessness and desolation behind this laughter.
