Chapter 450: Chicken Dog Ascension to Heaven
Great Seal Empire, Hidden Court City.
Today's Qianting City is particularly lively, to ask why? It turns out that the city lord Meng Hai has been promoted, not only his descendants inherit the position of the city lord, but also Meng Hai himself has been awarded the imperial history of the three products by the imperial family, and after that, he is about to go to the imperial capital to accept the official canonization of the royal family.
Although Meng Hai was also the lord of a city before, he was not linked to the royal family after all.
Now that he has finally come out of the way and has been hand-picked by the royal family, how does this make Meng Hai disliked? Under the great joy, today Meng Hai invited the nobles and wealthy families of the whole city to a banquet.
Not only the people with heads and faces in Qianting City were invited, but even the people from several large and small families in the surrounding cities, such as Black Rock City and Blue City, were also invited. So much so that now the city is full of excitement, and the streets and alleys are talking about it.
"The city lord of Meng Hai has survived for so many years, and he has finally come out. If you want to talk about a casual civil and military general in the imperial capital, there are more people than the main cattle forks in our small Qianting City Mansion. β
"Isn't it?, since the Bai family was destroyed, the City Lord's Mansion has been able to cover the sky in Qianting City with one hand. Now that he has become a Beijing official again, the Meng family will really be terrible in the future. β
"Well, don't say it. The small-eyed man narrowed his gaze into a small slit and whispered, "Do you know why Meng Hai suddenly soared into the sky?"
"Why?"
"Because he has long been attached to the former Prince Canglan, the current emperor, Cangxiong Fei Majesty. The City Lord's Mansion has always been secretly doing things for Cangxiong Fei's majesty. Let's just say that the Bai family was destroyed this time, but I am afraid that the City Lord's Mansion will not make a small contribution. β
"Shhh β
The small-eyed man smiled and closed his mouth honestly.
It has been several months since the Great Seal Empire changed hands, and the heat of this matter has always been high.
Cang Xiongfei forced the emperor's brother Cang Xiongwei to death and plotted to usurp the throne. At that time, it was like a tsunami and an earthquake that swept through the entire empire.
Especially in Azure City, some forces on the side of Qianting City. Some waters rise, and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. And some are ruined and devastated.
The clues are strange, and anyone with a little bit of a brain can see what is going on. I just don't want to mention it on the surface.
At noon, the clouds are light and the wind is light, and the warm sun is not dry.
In the Lord's Mansion, there was a festive and jubilant atmosphere, with bright red lanterns hanging high in the eaves corridor, and trees and vegetation were also covered with red ribbons.
The courtyard was full of guests, and the city lord Meng Hai, who was wearing a gorgeous robe, had a red face and couldn't close his mouth when he smiled.
"City Lord Meng, congratulations, congratulations, I wish you all the way to the top, haha. A middle-powered family head of Hidden Court City respectfully clenched his fists in celebration.
"Haha, thank you, thank you. β
Meng Hai was very happy today, originally with his arrogant character, he usually didn't pay attention to this ordinary force at all. But people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and it is rare to smile at these people today.
"The head of the Liu family, Liu is hanging!"
The voice of the city lord's mansion guard came from the gate, and his eyes swept over, and a team of eight people stepped into the courtyard gate, for a sharp middle-aged man, it was Liu Han.
At the beginning, the Bai family, the city lord's mansion, and the Liu family were in a three-legged trend in Qianting City.
Liu Hang had a son and a daughter, and his son Liu Yifeng was killed by Hanchen in the arena of the Three Cities Martial Arts. Now there is only one daughter left, Liu Xin.
The relationship between Liu Xin and Cang Yan'er is quite good, and this time the Great Seal Empire changed hands, and the Liu family naturally followed the chicken dog to heaven. Whether the Liu family will rise to prominence is only a matter of time.
"Haha, Brother Liu Hang, you're late! You have to punish yourself three cups later, three cups of self-punishment, haha. Meng Hai is quite enthusiastic about Liu Hang, and the reason is naturally needless to say.
"Hehe, how can three glasses be enough? Liu Hang laughed loudly.
"Haha, okay, don't get drunk and don't go home. β
Liu Xin, who was standing behind Liu Hang, stepped forward and said in a coquettish voice, "Uncle Meng, I wish you a straight rise and a high rise step by step." β
"Haha, Xin girl is really good at talking, haha. β
Meng Hai's smile didn't know how true or false it was, but he knew that with the relationship between Liu Xin and Cang Yan'er, the Liu family's achievements in the future would definitely not be worse than his City Lord's Mansion. Since you can't be an enemy, you can only be friendly with it.
"By the way, Uncle Meng, why don't you see Brother Meng Huo?" asked Liu Xin.
Meng Huo, the son of Meng Hai. He is also the most frivolous young man in Qianting City, and was once rated as the first day talent of Qianting City.
However, at the time of the three-city meeting, he finally returned home when he competed for the championship with Hanchen.
But after that setback, Meng Shu was not negative, but became more diligent and hardworking. And in these years, he has broken through again and again and has become a hot genius in Qianting City.
In these times, Liu Xin and Meng Huo are relatively close, but it is rumored that it is just Liu Xin's wishful thinking, and Meng Huo is not very kind to her.
"Oh, yes, where did this kid go?" Meng Haihuan looked for a while, and then smiled gently, "Hehe, Xin girl, Hou'er should be here soon." Not long ago, he broke through the Formation Realm, and he has been consolidating his cultivation for a while now, and even I haven't seen him a few times. β
Creating a Landscape?
All the people around couldn't help but gasp, and their faces showed envy. Rao is willow couldn't help twitching the corners of his eyes, and he secretly marveled in his heart.
"I didn't expect Young Master Meng to break through the Formation Realm, it's really demonic. A voice of admiration rang out from the crowd.
"Sure enough, he is worthy of being the first person in our Hidden Court City, and he has this kind of achievement in his twenties. β
"The city lord of Menghai is blessed, he is really envious of others. β
The crowd in the courtyard was full of discussions, and they talked loudly. From their tones, they were all filled with deep amazement and envy.
Now Meng Hai has been appointed as the imperial history of the capital, and his son Meng Huo has broken through the formation realm. It's like double happiness, which makes people envious, jealous and hateful. In the future, the city lord's mansion will be terrible.
Next to a table at the back, a quiet shadow quietly played with the teacup in her hand, and in this lively atmosphere, she looked out of place.
"Rushi, what's wrong?
A gentle male voice full of concern came, and the woman shook her head lightly and smiled slightly, "Dad, I'm fine." β
The woman is the eldest lady of the Ji family who had a marriage contract with Liu Yifeng, Ji Rushi. Next to him is the head of the Ji family, Ji Chengming.
At that time, the reason why Hanchen and Liu Yifeng broke out undying grievances was because of Ji Rushi.
Hanchen's mother Bai Muxuan and Ji Rushi's mother Su Hui are best friends, and the two were pregnant at about the same time. So Bai Muxuan casually said a joke and asked Hanchen and Ji Rushi to order a doll kiss.
It was just a joke, and it didn't take much seriousness. And Hanchen only regarded Ji Rushi as an ordinary friend. But Liu Yifeng was narrow-minded, and once insulted Hanchen in public, resulting in a tragic end.
Liu Yifeng is dead, and Ji Rushi and his marriage contract will naturally not be counted. Due to the fact that the size and pattern of Qianting City have changed over the years, the Ji family has been living a normal life.
Ji Rushi is still as beautiful as before, with fair skin, a smooth show, and a pair of big eyes under the long eyelashes. From a distance, it looks like a beautiful white peony flower, showing the beauty of tranquility.
At this moment, a young figure suddenly sat down beside Ji Rushi.
Ji Rushi frowned lightly, and said in a displeased voice, "What are you doing here?"
"Hehe, this is my house, where can't I come?" the man had a playful smile on his face, with an air of frivolity. The man was none other than the eldest young master of the City Lord's Mansion, the first day of Qianting City, Meng Yu.
"Master Ji, can I talk to Miss Rushi alone?" Meng Shu looked at Ji Chengming on the side with interest.
"This?" Ji Chengming frowned, and his face couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Ji Rushi saw her father's embarrassment, her red lips opened lightly, and she said softly, "Dad, it's okay, you go and talk to familiar friends first." β
Ji Chengming sighed, in the past, the Ji family didn't dare to provoke the City Lord's Mansion, let alone now. In desperation, he could only follow Ji Rushi's meaning and leave here.
Meng Yu's eyebrows were full of meaning, his handsome eyebrows were lightly raised, and he looked at Ji Rushi's beautiful cheeks seriously, "Hehe, I'm here, you are more and more in line with my appetite." Rushi, why don't you marry me!"
"Thanks to the kindness of Young Master Meng, the mountain of the City Lord's Mansion cannot be climbed like a poem. Ji Rushi replied lightly.
"Oh?
Meng Shu reached out to pick Ji Rushi's chin, but she avoided it. "Young Master Meng Huo, please be more solemn. β
"Haha, that's good, why didn't I see you so charming before! It's good that your former fiancΓ© is dead, otherwise I wouldn't have had a chance at all, haha. β
"You?" Ji Rushi's delicate body trembled slightly, and the other party's words pierced her heart like a sharp knife.
The past is uncovered like a scar, and it is difficult to face it.
"Rushi, I really like you! Can you find a second man in the whole city besides me?" Meng Shu didn't give up, feeling like he was amused.
Ji Rushi was finally a little annoyed, her pretty face flushed, she snorted coldly, and said, "Meng Shu, you are too self-righteous." Don't think you don't know your mind, you're doing this because of that person, he defeated you in the Tri-Cities Martial Arts, so you want to use me to get revenge on him. But you're wrong, he doesn't care about me at all, and whatever you do to me won't hit him in the slightest. β
