Section 95 Ten times

The menacing Xu stiffened, and intense fear suddenly appeared on his face. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As the daughter of a wealthy family, Xu has received a systematic education since she was a child. Although she didn't know much about the cultivation world, she had at least heard of the words "Heaven and Earth Rules".

Many people think that being able to be favored by the immortal master and become a member of the cultivation sect means that their status has been greatly improved. But they forgot that there are two sides to everything, and the same is true for cultivation.

Xu's hands slowly clenched, and his slender nails sank deep into the flesh. She didn't feel the slightest pain, her brain was firmly controlled by the intense fear, and there was no longer the slightest superfluous thought.

For mortals, the monk is a powerful being to look up to. The laws of heaven and earth also only bind monks. In short, the killing of even one mortal by a monk will have a certain amount of causal effect. Mortals kill monks, but the laws of heaven and earth will not move.

Even if you are just a person who has just come into contact with the concept of Taoism and has a slight sense of qi, you can be collectively called a monk.

Xu's two sons were both accepted as apprentices by Shen Changyou. At that time, Xu only felt that this was the creation of his sons, and his mind was full of wonderful ideas such as immortals and leisure. But she forgot that although her son's cultivation was only at the beginning of Qi refining, they had already become monks. In other words, the identity of Yang Wenjia and Yang Wenyao and Yang Tianhong is equal. If Yang Tianhong was brazen and killed his second son, the laws of heaven and earth would not move at all, nor would they fall thunder, so that Yang Tianhong would be wiped out.

The Xu family had already learned Yang Tianhong's ruthlessness. Five years ago, at a young age, a boy who was only eleven years old, he dared to go to the temple and ask His Majesty to take back the position of Marquis Yiyong in person. This kind of admissive and fierce and domineering approach will only grow with age.

Yang Tianhong is now a general of Xuanwu from the fourth rank of the imperial court. Heard. In the battle of Luoping Mountain, he ordered the beheading of thousands of thieves and bandits, and the corpses were piled up like a mountain and blood flowed like a river.

Xu's face changed, and he took a deep breath, his full chest rising and falling with the rhythm of his breathing. Even after giving birth to two children, the face was still beautiful, constantly flashing with blue and white, and there was a flush caused by the rapid flow of blood.

The hussar general Yang Jing and the Lu family were largely brokered by the Xu family. The Xu family has gained a lot of benefits for this, and has also received huge profits from selling horses from the north. It's just that I don't know why, the Lu family stopped coming to the door later, and never mentioned this family matter. The Xu family originally thought that the Lu family saw the decline of the Yang Mansion and wanted to get married. Yang Qiurong was not his own in the first place, and. The two sons seemed to be interested in Yang Qiurong, thinking that the marriage between the parent and the daughter would not be bad, but they didn't expect that the Lu family would come to the door at this time to propose marriage.

If this family business can be successful, the Xu family can also get more benefits through the Lu family as before.

It's just that no one thought that Yang Tianhong would be killed halfway. first abolished Lu Hongzhi's arm, and then scolded Lu Baoye for being bloody. Gray left the Yang Mansion.

Looking at Yang Tianhong, who looked indifferent, Xu couldn't wait to pounce. Hold your head and eat it alive.

He spoiled me too much, too many good things.

And over and over again.

Now, I'm threatening my two sons again.

Xu Shi forcibly suppressed his impulsiveness and rage, and roared unwillingly: "The Lu family is not as simple as you think. This family affair was promised by the master when he was alive, and the Lu family also had a marriage certificate in hand. Speaking of which, this matter is all the responsibility of the Lu family. ”

said. Xu Shi turned his gaze to Yang Qiurong, who was sitting on the other side of the table: "You'd better prepare, maybe someone from the Lu family will come to the door in the next few days." You can't avoid this kind of thing, even if you have the means to reach the sky, no matter how favored you are in the Qingling Sect. They must also obey the marriage contract and marry on time. ”

Yang Tianhong and Yang Qiurong glanced at each other, and neither of them spoke.

They had no interest in arguing with the Xu clan at all.

A dog stood there barking at herself, ignoring her.

If you shout hard and are too arrogant, then don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite. There are many ways to cook dog meat, and even if you don't like it, it's fun to chop it up and throw it out to feed to other dogs.

The Xu family is shrewd, and they can't see the thoughts of the Yang family sisters and brothers.

She sneered repeatedly: "Don't think I'm pretending, the Lu family's methods are far from being as simple as you think." I don't want to worry about it. But don't say that I haven't reminded you, this family business must be fulfilled. ”

......

The capital Anle Fang concentrated almost all the magnates of the Chu State. The Lu family is also among them.

Different from the outer courtyard of the Yang Mansion, which has a simple architectural style, the Lu Mansion is more in line with the aesthetics of the aristocracy and wealthy merchants. Sufficient construction funds, as well as strange stones and forests from all over the world, have made this the most representative existence of Kyoto garden art in the Chu Kingdom.

The entire province covers a vast area and strictly adheres to the basic architectural concept of two lines of the central axis. On the ground, most of it is covered with lush vegetation. Throughout the year, spring, summer, autumn and winter, Louvre always maintains a lush green, with tall trees, green grass, and a variety of flowers that are almost always in their most delicate bloom. There is a meandering stream between the pavilions and pavilions, which converges into a small lake in the rockery and lake rocks. The pond is stocked with colourful koi fish, and the trellis and gazebo are intertwined with evergreen vines, and each bush has been carefully manivered, and the gardeners have worked hard to make it happen, and cranes can be seen roaming in it from time to time. These supposedly spiritual birds have lost their feathers, and at best they can only glide in the pond with their wings fluttering. However, the bright red, white and soft feathers on the top of the head can indeed give people a reverie, as if they have come to the legendary Yaochi fairyland, in the blessed land of the cave.

In the most private living room of Lu Mansion, several men in expensive silk shirts gathered together. Each of them looked very capable, and there was a shrewd light in their eyes. This kind of momentum can usually only be found in people who have been in business all year round. Lu Baoye is also among them. At the top of them all is a sumptuous chair carved from sandalwood, on which sits an old man with a wrinkled face. He was wearing a well-tailored gray cotton robe, his eyes were wrinkled to the point that only a line remained, and he was playing with a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, slowly turning his thumb, looking very wise. Feeling oppressive.

Lu Yizhong is the head of the previous generation of the Lu family. Due to his advanced age, he gave up the position of head of the family to Lu Baoye. However, when there is a major and difficult matter to solve, the children of the clan will always ask Lu Yizhong to preside over it on their behalf. After all, within the Lu family, Lu Yizhong has always had the name of "wise man".

The Buddhist beads in his hand were strung several times. Lu Yizhong opened his mouth with few teeth left, and his voice was hoarse: "So, does the Yang family want to regret their marriage?"

Lu Baoye's face was very ugly. He nodded, and said sullenly: "Yang Tianhong is ruthless, and he doesn't follow the rules at all. Hongzhi shouldn't have entered the Guozijian to see Yang Qiurong, but they are fiancΓ©es after all, and it is not an exaggeration to say it legally. It's just that Yang Tianhong is really fierce, and he hurts people with a knife without saying a word. ”

Next to him, a middle-aged man who was shrewd and capable: "You dare to do it in the Guozi Prison?" Isn't he afraid that His Majesty will be wrathed and attacked by all the students of the world?"

Lu Baoye shook his head, with a wry smile on his face: "Yang Tianhong took the initiative to resign from the title of Marquis Yiyong five years ago, Your Majesty is too late to thank him for his benefits, how can it be that the thunder can be rained down because of such a trivial matter? As for the students in the world...... This kind of thing is just lip service. You have not dealt with Yang Tianhong, he belongs to the kind of person who doesn't care about reputation at all, and everything is premised on interests. I inquired that Cui Ji, the secretary of Guozijian, was Yang Tianhong's teacher. If it weren't for the fact that this person was maneuvering around. It is impossible for Yang Tianhong to take Hongzhi and leave Guozijian easily. ”

"Hmph! It's just a military attache from the fourth grade. ”

A tall man said coldly, "Since he wants to repent of his marriage." made the first move and completely abolished him. A large sum of money was spent, and a few people were bought at random in the military department, and he was given the task of leading troops to the border or suppressing bandits. Either send more worship monks to deal with him on the road, or arrange thieves to secretly attack. Regardless of whether the war is won or lost, he cannot escape the charge of "carelessness". When the time comes. His Majesty could not protect him. Anyway, all we want is Yang Qiurong. ”

Lu Baoye glanced at the strong man, sneered and said, "You think too simply. To put it lightly, do you think it will be easy to kill Yang Tianhong? He is the life-saving benefactor of Li Shaoming, the secretary of the Ministry of War, even if he buys off the officials below. It didn't help when I got to Li Shaoming. The Xuanhuo Army was strong, and in the battle of Pingshan, even the commanders of several other Beijing Division patrol battalions were apprehensive. As for sending the family to worship and secretly attack...... Don't forget, Yang Tianhong himself is a disciple of the Guiyuan Sect. I don't know what virtues he has accumulated in his previous life, but Guiyuan Sect actually arranged a Jindan Grandmaster by his side. My Lu family's strongest worship is only the third layer of foundation building, how can I fight the enemy?"

The strong man's face froze, and then he showed a look of complete disbelief: "Don't be kidding. Grandmaster Jindan?When did the Grandmaster Jindan in the world become so worthless? Even a sixteen-year-old doll has it by his side. Lu Baoye, you shouldn't be deliberately exaggerating and trying to blempty in front of the ancestor, right?"

Lu Baoye continued to sneer, shook his head, and said to the strong man, "Don't you believe me? You lead the team to assassinate Yang Tianhong, and see if I am talking nonsense, or if there is really such a thing. ”

The strong man's face immediately turned red, and he roared angrily: "You, what do you mean by this?"

Lu Baoye sneered and said, "What did you mean just now, what do I mean now." Since you think I'm talking nonsense, then let you, the warrior in charge of the family's security, play a role. Is it necessary for me to deceive you about this kind of thing?

At this time, the old man sitting at the top coughed lightly and interjected: "Enough, there is no point in arguing now." ”

After a pause, the old man's gaze fell on Lu Baoye, and he asked seriously, "Is it true that Yang Tianhong has a Jindan Sect Master by his side?"

Lu Baoye nodded with gloomy eyes: "I don't know very well about the strength of the monks, but the two immortal masters who followed me in the past will definitely not be mistaken." In front of that person, the two immortal masters couldn't even maintain their normal movements and demeanor. The man only said the word "roll", and the two immortal masters never dared to show their faces again. ”

The room suddenly resounded with fierce exclamations and discussions.

In the eyes of the Lu family, the foundation building monk is already a very remarkable existence. Yang Tianhong is just a young man, and there is a master guard by his side who is enough to make the foundation building monk frightened. Historically, the value of the target has been directly proportional to the strength of the guard. With such a person of considerable weight, the Lu family has never been stingy in making friends. The problem is that Yang Tianhong has now become an enemy of the Lu family.

The old man looked up. Silently staring at the glimmer of light coming in from the window, he fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he slowly spoke: "Anything in the world can be regarded as a business. ”

"Back then, our Lu family married Yang Jing, a hussar general, just to get a rich return. Although Yang Jing is dead. But the value of this family affair is still there. As long as Yang Qiurong is married, my Lu family will continue to get the immortal family elixir. No matter how you look at it, it's a good deal that is sure to make a profit. ”

"I saw Hongzhi's injuries yesterday, and that kind of muscle-building and bone-building powder is really wonderful. It was only one night's work before the wound had healed and the arm had grown. Although he has not yet recovered, it will only take a month at most for him to be able to move freely. ”

"The immortal family is wonderful, it is indeed beyond the imagination of mortals such as us. Nothing else. Take this muscle-building bone san as an example, if my Lu family masters the prescription and refining method, tens of millions of times the profit is also at your fingertips. In this world, there are tens of millions of people who have been cut off from their hands and feet? In the war, countless people have been injured. The miracle of this medicine and the huge profits are far beyond imagination. ”

"This family business must not be retreated. Baoye, tell you that Hongzhi child, let him start today. is honest and restrained, and is not allowed to go out to mess with flowers and grass again. What serious girl would like a prodigal child? All day long can only eat, drink, and have fun, how can the husband and wife be harmonious in the future? Yang Qiurong will definitely become the daughter-in-law of our Lu family. If it is because of Lu Hongzhi's own problems that Yang Qiurong refuses to marry, I don't mind if there is an extra beggar surnamed Lu on the streets of the capital. ”

Everyone in the room understood the meaning of the old man's words. must marry the Yang family at any cost.

"It's not going to be that simple. ”

Lu Baoye's voice was low: "The Yang family sisters and brothers are very resistant to this matter. Yang Tianhong said, if my Lu family has to marry Yang Qiurong. The Lu family must be restless. Even...... There is also the Plague of Bloodlight. ”

The old man looked at him very dissatisfied, and said coldly: "This kind of thing is what you will believe." Don't forget, the rules of heaven and earth have always been for cultivators. What's more, my Lu family is not wrong in this matter. It's his Yang family who wants to breach the contract first, what does it have to do with my Lu family?"

Lu Baoye shook his head again and again: "Yang Tianhong will not agree to family affairs." Yang Qiurong will not pass through the door. If we forcibly come to the door to marry...... Maybe. Something is going to happen. Ancestor, have you ever seen Yang Tianhong, that is a lawless lord. Think about it, how can a person who has the Jindan Grandmaster's escort by his side be able to easily settle the simple goods?"

The old man frowned again and fell silent.

After a long time, he said again: "Let's do it! Let's negotiate with the Yang family in another way." Go through the ledger and see how much dowry we gave to the Yang family back then, and how much silver supplies we gave Yang Jing back then?"

"Silver?"

Lu Baoye didn't understand what the old man meant, and hesitated and said: "The original bride price was 300,000 taels of silver. If we add the materials that have been transported to the Northland Army for several consecutive years, the total amount is about 800,000 taels. ”

"That's good! That's the most valuable chip we have in our hands. ”

The old man's gloomy mood suddenly became lighter. He tilted his head, slowly stroked the fluttering long beard on his chest, and said lightly: "Now I will order someone to draft a document and send it to the Yang family's mansion." Tell Yang Tianhong that if he wants to repent of his marriage, he must return the bride price of the year, together with all the materials and silver money consumed by his son, to our Lu family. There is no need to count the fraction, with 800,000 taels of silver as an integer, it will be multiplied tenfold. ”

Including Lu Baoye, the other members of the Lu clan in the room couldn't help but gasp.

Eight hundred thousand taels, ten times, that is, eight million taels of silver.

That's almost one-third of the entire Lu family's assets.

The old man's voice was slightly proud, full of disdain: "Great Chu Ling, Great Qin Law, Great Wei Gui, Great Zhao Law...... Every country in the world is governed by the law. If the host family does not wish, any person who repents of the marriage must compensate the host family for more than ten times the bride price. In this matter, our Lu family is in charge wherever we go. No matter how strong and domineering he Yang Tianhong is? What can Yang Qiurong do if he is unwilling to marry into my Lu family? Eight million taels of silver, not a single cent less. Of course, if he was willing to take out the Body Forging Pill, the Yuan Qi Pill, or the kind of muscle-building bone building powder to mortgage and repay, it would not be impossible. We won the lawsuit. Even if the Guiyuan Sect and the Qingling Sect reconcile from it, my Lu family will not let it go. Otherwise, the laws of heaven and earth would make him Yang Tianhong have nowhere to hide. The old man wants to see how long he can last?"

After a pause, the old man sneered coldly: "As for whether Yang Qiurong really marries into my Lu family, that's not the point." If you are willing to marry, of course it is the best. If you don't want to be the wife of Hongzhi's child...... Hem, we got what we needed. ”

Lu Baoye and the Lu family suddenly realized.

The purpose of marrying the Yang family was just to obtain the pill through Yang Qiurong.

Now, directly use the laws of Chu to force Yang Tianhong to hand over ten times the compensation. The Yang family has so much property up and down, and it is impossible to come up with eight million taels of silver no matter what. With Yang Tianhong's tough character, it is absolutely impossible to let Yang Qiurong pass the door. In this way, he had no second way except to take out the pill to deduct the silver money.

As long as the elixir is in hand, family affairs are no longer important. (To be continued.) )
