Chapter 157: The Four Great Families
A group of fifteen people sat scattered on three tables, among them, Lone Star and Chu Rou'er occupied one, and the rest of the people sat on the two tables and were slightly crowded. [Ran^Text^Library] []
At this time, it was the time for dinner, and the inn was already overcrowded, and it was not easy for the store to pull out three tables in front of the old shopkeeper, so it was naturally impossible to beg more people to leave, so Lone Star smiled at everyone apologetically, but Chu Rouer looked unimpressed, as if she was domineering.
After the two of them chewed slowly, they found that Ling Yun and the others had already gotten up, and were standing at the counter at the moment busy dealing with matters such as staying in the store, Chu Rou'er directly ignored them, grabbed Lone Star's arm, and said a little playfully under the candlelight: "Brother Night, if you are idle, you are idle, why don't you accompany Rou'er out to see the night scene, how about it?"
Seeing that there was nothing to do, and at the same time, she happened to have something to ask her, so she naturally didn't shirk it, nodded with a chuckle, and Chu Rou'er suddenly jumped up.
The two of them said that they would leave, led by Chu Rou'er to shuttle back and forth on several main streets in Luo'an City, as if they would never get tired, Lone Star looked at her lively and energetic, and couldn't help but think of the scene in Tianhuang City again, secretly funny but inevitably sighed.
As soon as she turned around, she saw Ling Yun and the others also following from a distance, Chu Rou'er pursed her mouth slightly, cursed softly, and then ignored it again, and walked around with Lone Star in front of her.
The night market is lit up by thousands of lights, and high-rise buildings with red sleeves are crowded. Now it's not like a normal day, and I still know it from the song.
As the capital city, the night scene of Luo'an is naturally not comparable to other places, just a few side streets, are illuminated by the lights as bright as day, not to mention how lively the main street has been.
The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and the stars are like rain. BMW carved cars are full of incense, the sound of the phoenix flute moves, the jade pot turns brightly, and the fish and dragon dance all night.
Ten miles of long street, bright lights, the moon is full in front of the moon building, drunk hidden in the lights of people's houses, reflecting the cold water into a picture, light and darkness sublimation, into a piece of virtual reality, it is difficult to distinguish in the end, which is the moon, which is the candle.
Lone Star grew up in the mountains since he was a child, and he naturally has never seen such a prosperous night scene like a fairyland on earth, but he is very good at restraining his emotions, so he is not like Chu Rou'er, every time he sees a novelty, he dances excitedly, shouts, and is reckless, and there is no dignity and nobility on the carriage in the white room.
"By the way, Rou'er, since you have lived here for a long time, do you know if there is a big family surnamed Ye in this Luo'an City?"
Accompanying her back and forth to the night market for several hours, buying a lot of all kinds of novel vendors, it was not until she was interested in pulling Lone Star to sit down at a wonton shop, and Lone Star asked.
"Brother Ye is talking about the night family?"
Chu Rou'er's eyes lit up, and she said without thinking: "Naturally, there is, the night, rain, sunset, and wind of the four major families of Luo'an, which one doesn't know, and which one doesn't know?"
"Night rain and evening wind?"
Lone Star repeated this novel term in Chu Rou'er's mouth, and said curiously: "In this way, this night family is quite famous?"
"Giggles, isn't it just quite famous, looking at the six countries, who doesn't know the Luo'an Ye family, Brother Ye, are you really from our Chu country, why don't you even know the Ye family?"
"That's... I grew up in the mountains, so I am naturally not very familiar with the things in this world..."
Lone Star was furious by her laughter, so she had to touch her nose in embarrassment, pretended to cough a few times, and asked, "Then Rou'er, can you tell your eldest brother something about the Ye family?"
"Oh, well. ”
When Chu Rou'er heard this reason, she was relieved, nodded and said, " As everyone knows, there are four major families in Chu that are famous all over the world, according to their status from high to low, they are the night family in the east of the city, the Yu family in the west of the city, the Xi family in the south of the city, and the Feng family in the north of the city ranked last, among the four major families, the Feng family is weak, and the Yu family and the Xi family are similar in strength, so the ranking often fluctuates, but it is only hovering between the second and third, among the four major families, only the night family in the first place is high, and has never been surpassed by the rest of the families, and the location we are in now is also in the sphere of influence of the night family in the east of the city. ”
"One of the four major families, in this way, this night family is so powerful..."
After listening to her introduction, Lone Star didn't know whether to praise or say with emotion.
"Flutter~"
Chu Rou'er was amused by his unintentional words again, and joked jokingly: "Don't say it's the Ye family, just any of the four major families, that is, looking at the six countries, which one is not the best in the world, the existence of rich and rich people, even if the Feng family, who has always been weak, stomps his feet here, I am afraid that this Luo An will tremble." ”
"The four major families, sure enough. ”
Lone Star really praised it from the bottom of his heart this time, it is not easy to influence the trend of a country with the power of a family, no matter how deep the background is behind him.
"Since these four major families are so powerful, and they are all rooted in the capital, don't you royal family feel threatened?"
This is a place that Lone Star is very puzzled about, although the four major families have an inseparable connection with the royal family in their origins, but in the final analysis, the four major families are always outsiders, or courtiers, the royal family is so conniving at them, is they not afraid that they will be highly meritorious, and then one day after the wings are full, they will replace the royal family?
This is by no means alarmist, there are not a few courtiers who have plotted against usurpation in ancient times, and how did the royal family conclude that after the four major families gradually grow, they will not have two hearts.
At this time, I saw Chu Rou'er pursing the corners of her mouth disdainfully, and there was a slight chill on her usually calm face: "Threat?
Chu Rou'er had previously admired these four families to the extreme, but in the blink of an eye, she changed to such a disdainful look, and Lone Star was suddenly a little dazed.
As if seeing through his doubts, Chu Rou'er held up her cheeks and seemed to smile: "Brother Ye, do you really think that you can cover the sky with one hand and dominate the world?"
As soon as these words came out, Lone Star was suddenly dumbfounded.
