Chapter 31: The Ministers

Following the crow into the town hall where Rose and the leopard meet for the first time the dignitaries of a city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The conference hall was simply arranged, with a large rectangular conference table in the center, and at the end of the conference table was a forty-centimeter-high pulpit platform, on which a long table was placed horizontally, but now only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl sat on the right side of the long table, and the other side was empty.

Below the side of the pulpit was a lonely seat, on which a stout old man of short stature and a bearded face like a halberd stood majestically, looking forward to it without anger or threat.

Directly below the pulpit was the main conference table of the conference hall, and thirteen people of various ages sat around one side of the conference table, facing the high pulpit.

The left side of the conference table is facing the vacant position on the pulpit, and the first person sitting in the first place is Du Ming, the leader of the Du family who I saw last night, the personable Du Ming, Du Ming changed into another same snow-white dress, and the part of the table in front of him was wiped spotlessly clean, even so, he still put a handkerchief on the table, and then put his hand on the handkerchief with confidence.

Du Ming's right hand sitting was a bald man, the age was almost the same as Du Ming, but the fat one was close to round, and it was difficult to cross his hands in front of his stomach, although he sat down again, he still looked at Sun He opposite with anger, and his mouth was panting heavily, and he didn't know if he was angry, or because he was tired from the action of sitting down. The only one who will be so dissatisfied with the Sun family is Song Bin, who has just finished arguing with Sun He.

Sun He, who was staring at him, sat at the first place on the right side of the conference table opposite, the old man with a long beard and fluttering hair was all open, and he looked at Song Bin without giving in, and the heavy dragon head crutch was tightly held in his hand, as if he was about to smash it on the other party's bald head if he didn't say a word.

On Sun He's left hand side is a strange woman, judging from the seat, there is no doubt that this is Li Ying, the head of the Li family, the last pillar family in Brocade City.

She looked to be in her forties, with a weak appearance, a homely silk dress, and a small handbag by her side, and at first glance, she felt that this was a full-time housewife who could be seen everywhere in the market, but she just walked the wrong way and did not go to the market, but walked into the city hall.

However, if you look at her carefully, you will find that it is just her own illusion, obviously ordinary and weak in appearance, but on her face that should have a soft expression, there is a fierce aura from her bones, even if she is just knitting a sweater with her head down, but she is still like a fierce beast that chooses people to devour, exuding a bloody and ferocious atmosphere at any time.

Well, that's right, she's knitting sweaters, in the city council, which represents the most important decision-making occasions in the city, and among the city's most important ministers who can preside over the life and death of all the people in a city.

The four important ministers sat around the heads of several important functional departments of the city, Song Lin, the guard of the early warning center, Li Xiu, the commander of the city guard, Wang Tao, the chief of the planting building, Dou Liang, the chief of the municipal engineering center, Li Mei, the chief engineer of the light industry department, Sima Sun Peng of the Wulian Division, Du Fei, the pawn of the foreign affairs department, and Du Hu of the internal history of the economic and trade department.

"Yo, Sister Li, the sweater is well knitted, and the one for Xiao Kai is still for Xiao Maozi. The crow sat down and didn't get to the point immediately, but said with a smile to the head of the Li family who was knitting a sweater, "Knit one for me another day." ”

"Not available. Li Ying didn't give any face, raised her eyelids and swept the crow's smiling face with a sharp gaze, and her voice was as cold as a blade. However, with the crow's smile, she folded the sweater needles together, stopped what she was doing, and stared at the roof in a daze.

"Brother, give. The little doll-like girl on the side handed a lollipop before the crow could speak, "I just made it this morning." ”

"Oh, thank you, Xiao Si is so good. The crow stuffed the lollipop into his mouth and nodded, "The spicy taste is a little heavy, next time I put two less bags of chili peppers, and I can replace them with mustard." ”

"yes, I see. Xiao Si nodded vigorously with a smile on his face, looking like he was carefully taught.

"Alright, let's get down to business. The crow clucked and crushed the lollipop, threw the candy stick aside, and said vaguely, "Mr. Fujiwara, I'll take over the chairmanship for a while, you don't have an opinion, and Xiaosi, you don't have an opinion, it's good, then I will preside over the meeting for the time being." ”

After seeing the head of the Supervision Division's Imperial History Fujiwara and his sister, the crow knocked on the table and said, "Now everyone put away their emotions, the city council is not a quarrel meeting, although every time you turn it into a quarrel meeting, but this time it's a serious matter, and if you want to quarrel, I'll help him sober up with my own hands." Old Sun, you put down the crutches, you are quite old, you really threw it out, maybe you hit your own foot, Uncle Song, I didn't say you, your eyes are so big, why, you have stayed in the breeding center for too long, and you have formed a deep friendship with the cow? Sister Li, you too, if you don't knit a sweater, you look at the sky, is I handsome on the ceiling? Look at Uncle Du, who is concentrating on wiping the table, how intentional it is. ”

"Snort. Sitting behind the crow's side, the female leopard couldn't help laughing, although she couldn't see her face, she could fully imagine the helpless expression on the crow's face at this time.

"Alas. The crow sighed deeply, shook his head and said, "Last night's incident, I think everyone here heard about it, eleven of the fifteen iron guards of the Lu family died, and Lu Qing was slightly injured, if it wasn't for Sun Wei and the Sun family's guards fighting to save each other, I could say goodbye to her body today." ”

"I just finished talking with her eldest brother Lu Hu this morning, which can be regarded as temporarily stabilizing the Lu family, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, and Lu Hu will know the specific situation sooner or later, and it will definitely not work if he doesn't give him an explanation. ”

"There is also the Sun family, Sun Wei and those guards were injured to death in order to keep the century-old friendship between brocade and mulberry hemp, and it is completely understandable that Sun Lao lifted the table and scolded. Don't, Sun Lao, put your hand down, my sentence is not literal, in short, what I need now is an explanation, no, two explanations. ”

"Besides, please bring me a glass of water for the little girl over there who is sleeping and eavesdropping against the wall, and the waiter will teach you how to be lazy when you are training?" ”

"Young City Lord, I have a question. Unexpectedly, the first person to speak was Li Ying, the head of the Li family who was like a humanoid beast, Ms. Li's natural bloody gaze swept over the crow's face, and then circled the faces of the rose and the female leopard, and then asked in a cold voice, "Our municipal council of Brocade City, why are these two people listening?"

"Hmm. The crow tilted his head and thought for a while, and said with a smile, "All of you in the Li family, those with or without the surname Li are counted, plus the garrison of more than 200 people under Xiu Meizi, they are just one person, with only one hand, they can pinch you all to death in half an hour, well, just based on this, why, do you have an opinion?"

The crow's words were full of provocation, but Li Ying's gaze at the two ladies became much softer, and she nodded, "I have no opinion." ”

"Very well, then I'll continue. ”
