Countless people shouted excitedly and waved to Nan Xuanji, and Nan Xuanji all waved in response one by one, but whenever the carriage passed by, those citizens of White Dragon City would all stop what they were doing and smile at the city lord.

It can be seen that Nan Xuanji, the lord of a city, still has a very high status in the minds of everyone in White Dragon City.

As if to enjoy the scene in the city, perhaps in response to the enthusiasm of all the citizens of White Dragon City, the carriage traveled from the City Lord's Mansion to the Queqiao for nearly an hour.

The bridge is wide enough for three carriages to travel side by side, but there are very few people coming and going on the bridge.

"City Lord!"

As one of the fortresses in and out of the north, the Queqiao is naturally indispensable to guard, and when they saw the southern mystery coming by carriage, the Queqiao guards immediately stepped forward to salute.

"Brothers, you've worked hard!"

Although Nan Xuanji is the lord of a city, he is still very peaceful with the people under his hands.

"Yes, Lord Castle, are you going to leave the city?"

When facing Nan Xuanji, these guards in White Dragon City were not too restrained, Nan Xuanji treated people peacefully, and each of them knew it very well.

"Well, I'm going to go out of town!"

Nan Xuanji smiled and nodded.

Soon, the carriage was drifting away in the eyes of the bridge guards.

Although Nan Xuanji hadn't left White Dragon City for ten years, no one was surprised that Nan Xuanji suddenly left the city.

White Dragon City is not the only one in the City Lord's Mansion, in addition to the City Lord's Mansion, there are three major families in White Dragon City.

They are the Li family, the Bai family and the Duanmu family.

The three of them never cared about the mundane affairs of White Dragon City, but everyone in White Dragon City knew that there was a mutually restrictive relationship between the three major families and the City Lord's Mansion.

The matter of Nan Xuanji's departure from White Dragon City naturally reached the ears of the three major families at the first time.

White House.

At this time, all the people in the council hall who had some weight in the White Mansion gathered here.

"What is the matter with Nan Xuanji going out of the city at this time?"

Bai Youcai, the mansion master who was at the helm of the White Mansion, sat in the first place, his eyes swept over the faces of the people below one by one, and the doubts in his eyes were very obvious.

Bai Youcai looked like he was in his early fifties, with a messy beard, a slightly rickety back, and a head of gray-white messy hair, casually draped over his shoulders, as if he hadn't taken care of it for a long time.

"If my expectations are not bad, Nan Xuanji's trip is probably for the sake of Wu Sansi and Yan Zizai."

Under him, a middle-aged man with a glint in his eyes smiled and said, "He left the White Dragon City from Queqiao, and he should have gone to Luoxia City." ”

This person's name is Bai Yushao, although he is only young and not confused, but he is one of the two major think tanks of the Bai family, as soon as he opened his mouth, the other people in the council hall, after thinking for a while, all nodded their heads.

"Luoxia City!"

Bai Youcai touched his messy beard, a trace of essence flashed in his eyes, and said, "In this way, his trip to Nanxuanji will definitely not be too smooth?" ”

As the head of the family, he obviously has special trust in Bai Yusa and has no doubts about his analysis.

Yan Zizai and Wu Sansi were detained by Nan Ruosu and left on Wanglong Mountain to kneel and worship Nan Ruoxun, and Bai Youcai witnessed the whole process with his own eyes.

"Nan Xuanji is too big, and he actually only brought one Tu Yanxing to Luoxia City."

Bai Yusa sneered: "Whether he can come back alive or not, it's still two words." ”

As a member of White Dragon City, it is naturally impossible for Bai Fu to be absent from Nan Ruoxun's funeral, what happened in White Dragon City in the past two days, everyone present knows it.

The bold Nan Ruosu actually instructed his subordinates to drag Yan Zizai and the others out of the city to feed the wild dogs, if this matter reached His Majesty the Holy Emperor, it would be impossible for him to stay out of the matter.

"In that case, this is a great opportunity for us!"

Bai Youcai smiled and said, "The letter was sent out, right?" ”

"Rest assured, the head of the family, within three days, the stupid things that Nan Ruosu did in White Dragon City will definitely spread all over Luoxia City!"

Bai Yushao sneered on his face and said, "Nan Xuanji, that waste son, has done us a great favor this time. ”

It turned out that they had already taken a step forward in the south and sent what happened in White Dragon City to Luoxia City in a letter.

"In this way, the opportunity we have been waiting for for many years has finally arrived."

Bai Youcai was in a good mood instantly: "Yusa, you contact the other two families to see what their attitudes are." ”

"Yes, Master!"

Bai Yu answered and took the order.

Bai Youcai told the others to be ready at any time, and then he came to a boudoir in the depths of the Bai Mansion.

When Bai Youcai came in, a half-aged in the garden was still admiring the plum blossoms.

Seeing the woman's upturned back, Bai Youcai's eyes flashed a trace of heat, came to her back, hugged the woman from behind, and said softly: "Are these plum blossoms so good-looking?" Why are you staring at them every time I see you? ”

"You are still called talented, don't you know that plum blossoms are the most cautious?"

The woman sniffed the fragrance of plum blossoms, and a hint of playfulness flashed in her beautiful eyes, and said, "What about Bai Yusa?" ”

This half-old is Bai Youcai's wife and Shen Youyou, one of the two major think tanks in Baifu.

is different from Bai Youcai's sloppy and sloppy, Shen Youyou is very fashionable regardless of whether she is dressed or dressed, and it is not difficult to see that she is a very delicate woman.

"It's not that you don't know, I'm a rough person, so I know these things?"

Bai Youcai leaned his head on her shoulder, and said with a smile: "Over the years, Bai Mansion has been thanks to Mrs. You and Yu Sao, speaking of which, I should really thank you two." ”

Shen Youyou stretched out his hand and pushed his head away, gave him a blank look and said, "You should thank Bai Yusa well, he has helped you share a lot of affairs inside and outside the Bai Mansion over the years." ”

"What Madame said is that I will do this when I go back, but it can't make people feel cold."

Bai Youcai nodded solemnly and said, "I just sent him to contact the other two, I don't know if Mrs. has something to discuss with him?" ”

Shen Youyou's face was stunned, and he said, "Are you going to do something to the City Lord's Mansion?" ”

Nan Xuanji went out of the city not long ago, and she naturally heard about it.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Bai Youcai did not deny it.

Shen Youyou's eyes flickered, and only after a moment did he say: "The City Lord's Mansion is missing Nan Xuanji and Tu Yanxing, and there is a half-step sage on the bright side, can there be a chance of winning?" ”

"It's just a half-step sage, what can you change?"

Bai Youcai smiled disdainfully: "If Bai Yusa can contact any of the other two families, even if there is a sage in his City Lord's Mansion, he can't change the ending." ”

"It's a good thing to be cautious after all, Nan Xuanji is not an easy character to deal with."

Shen Youyou was still a little worried: "After Bai Yusa comes back, you let him come here, and I have something to explain to him." ”

"No problem!"

Bai Youcai originally wanted to make love with her, but he didn't expect that as soon as he leaned over a face, he was rejected by Shen Youyou.

"This battle is about the life and death of Baifu, do you still have the heart to think about this?"

After being glared at by Shen Youyou, Bai Youcai withdrew from the boudoir with a stupid face.

And Shen Youyou's eyes flickered, not knowing what he was thinking.

At the same time, a scene very similar to that of Baifu appeared in the Duanmu family.

Duanmu Qingshan, the head of the Duanmu family, summoned the old family of the Duanmu family as soon as he got Nan Xuanji out of the city.

Duanmu Qingshan is only in his early forties, his shape is tall, his blue eyes are full of ferocity, and his waterfall-like brown hair is tied behind him at will.

He is a very bold person, and he is also a very ambitious person, and the Duanmu family, as a rising star, can gain a firm foothold in White Dragon City, almost all of which is due to him alone.

"Nan Xuanji's departure from the city this time is undoubtedly a great opportunity for my Duanmu family."

After summoning the clan elders, Duanmu Qingshan went straight to the point: "I don't know what you think?" ”

Although under the leadership of Duanmu Qingshan, the Duanmu family has grown into one of the three major families on a par with the City Lord's Mansion in a short period of time, but for the ambitious Duanmu Qingshan, this does not satisfy him.

You know, whoever masters White Dragon City is equivalent to mastering the northern border fortress, so how can he refuse such a temptation?

"Although the opportunity is a good opportunity, once we take the initiative, the Bai Mansion and the Li family will inevitably jump out and intervene, which is not profitable for us."

"Yes, the other two must have coveted the position of the City Lord's Mansion for a long time, and once we make the first move, we will inevitably be targeted by the other two together."

“……”

Soon, many people below began to talk about it.

Duanmu Qingshan didn't seem to take their concerns to heart at all, and he just looked at them calmly.

After a moment, he turned his gaze to the old man at the front of the head, who had never spoken, and asked, "I wonder what the Great Elder thinks?" ”

The old man, whom he called the Great Elder, smoothed his beard and said with a smile: "There are not a few people who want to share a piece of the City Lord's Mansion, we can join forces with others to avoid worries for the time being." ”

"It seems that the Great Elder and I have been together."

Duanmu Qingshan nodded with a smile and said, "I wonder if the Great Elder has a choice in his heart?" ”

Just when everyone looked at the old man expectantly, suddenly a subordinate quickly walked into the main hall, half-knelt on the ground and said: "The head of the family, a person who claims to be Bai Yusao has come outside, saying that he has something to discuss with the head of the family." ”

"When I happen to be sleepy, the pillow will be automatically delivered to the door."

Duanmu Qingshan was suddenly in a good mood and said, "Please let him in!" ”

Soon, Bai Yusa was invited into the main hall, and when he saw the scene in the hall, he already had an idea in his heart.

didn't talk nonsense, he hugged his fists directly at Duanmu Qingshan and said, "Presumably the Duanmu family master has already guessed what he cares, right?" ”

Duanmu Qingshan invited him to take a seat, immediately served hot tea, and said, "If what I expected is not bad, does Baifu want to join forces with my Duanmu family?" ”

"The Duanmu family master is really wise!"

Bai Yusao stretched out his palm, then clenched his palm into a fist fiercely, and said, "What my family lord means is that our three major families will join forces to divide the city lord's mansion. ”

"I guess Your Excellency hasn't been to Li's house yet, right?"

The distance between Baifu and Duanmu's house is relatively close, and Duanmu Qingshan dares to make bold inferences.

Bai Yusa said truthfully: "The Li family is a little farther, and they will go there in the inferior class, as long as the head of the Duanmu family agrees to this matter, his Li family will lose the choice." ”

"Then I wish Your Excellency the fulfillment of your wishes!"

Duanmu Qingshan's face was filled with a bright smile, and he said, "No matter what his Li family's attitude is, my Duanmu family will choose to join forces with your mansion." ”

He knew the meaning of Bai Yu's words, the Li family had no right to choose, could it be that after the Li family agreed, would he have the right to make a choice?

After Bai Yusuo thanked him, he got up and left in a hurry.

Compared with the Baifu and Duanmu families, the Li family is much cleaner.

Li Ru, the head of the Li family, was a gentle middle-aged man, his cheeks were as if they were carved, with sharp edges and corners, and a pair of deep eyes as charming as stars in the night sky.

Li Ru doesn't look like a person who has been in a high position for a long time at all, but more like a scholar, just like his name, with an elegant atmosphere.

At this moment, he is playing against his daughter Li Ruxin's boudoir, and after the sunspot in his hand falls neatly, he then looks at his daughter opposite with a smile, and seems to be looking forward to how his daughter will break the game.

"Dad, I heard that Uncle Nan went out of the city?"

Li Ru thought for a moment, then dropped the white son in his hand, then held up his chin and looked at his father Li Ru with a playful expression.

Li Ruxin's appearance is quite similar to her father, with big eyes, thin lips, curved crescent eyebrows, and a white and tender mutton fat face, making her look as holy as a snow lotus.

Her son seemed to fall casually, but Li Ru couldn't help frowning when he took a closer look.

"Don't play, this is the fifth game, you still give your dad a set!"

Soon, Li Ru disarmed and surrendered, threw away the sunspot in his hand, and looked at his daughter helplessly.

"Dad, why haven't you made any progress in your chess skills?"

Li Ruxin pursed her lips with a smile and said, "What your daughter just said, did you hear it, Dad?" ”

Li Ru glanced at his daughter meaningfully, and said, "Dad's ears are not so back, the city lord is indeed out of the city, but does this have anything to do with us?" ”

Li Ruxin's careful thinking, how could she hide it from her father?

Seeing his father's slightly playful eyes, Li Ruxin's face suddenly turned red, and he said: "Uncle Nan left White Dragon City, nine times out of ten, he went to Luoxia City, if he leaves, White Dragon City may become a mess, what does Dad think about this?" ”

"The city lord's departure from White Dragon City is a great opportunity for several major families, and the Bai Mansion and Duanmu families will definitely not let it go."

Li Ru's expression immediately became serious, and said: "The strength of these two families should not be underestimated, and it is impossible for our Li family to stay out of the matter, they categorically do not allow us to do this." ”

I have to say that although he is bookish, his judgment of the current situation is to the point.

"I don't care what happens to others!"

Li Ruxin put all the chess pieces scattered on the chessboard into the chessboard, looked at his father Li Ru with a serious face and said: "But our Li family must not participate in it, father, don't forget, the general saved his daughter's life at the beginning, and our Li family can't do ungrateful things." ”

"There have always been rumors in White Dragon City before, saying that my Li Ru's daughter likes the eldest prince of the City Lord's Mansion, it seems that it is true?"

Li Ru looked at his daughter with a smile and said, "The eldest prince of the City Lord's Mansion is indeed a dragon among people, and it is reasonable to be able to fascinate our hearts above the top." ”

"Dad, my daughter is down to business, can't you be serious?"

Hearing Li Ru's words, Li Ruxin's eyes suddenly turned red.

General Nan Ruoxun will be martyred suddenly, which is beyond everyone's expectations, including her.

"Xin'er, do you know that your decision is very likely to push our Li family to a place of no return?"

Li Ru's expression immediately became serious: "If we don't participate, the Bai Mansion and the Duanmu family will definitely not give up, and when they free up their hands, they will definitely attack our Li family as soon as possible." ”

"Then why don't we leave them free to deal with us?"

Li Ruxin's bright eyes suddenly emitted a stunning light, and said: "Those who shoot the case seek wealth and nobility in danger, since the Baifu and Duanmu families choose to incarnate as mantises, then why don't we be yellow sparrows once?" ”

"What if it fails?"

Li Ru stared at his daughter with burning eyes.

"It's man-made, not to mention that there is a father, and my daughter believes that she can't be defeated."

Li Ruxin smiled sweetly, her eyes full of confidence.

"Speaking of which, you're still calculating your father?"

Li Ru said helplessly: "It is said that the female university is not staying, and it is true." ”

"How to decide, Dad, you can do it yourself, anyway, I have already asked my brother to protect Nan Ruosu."

Li Ruxin's face suddenly showed fox-like cunning.

In this regard, Li Ru was not surprised at all, as if he had known it for a long time, but asked an inexplicable sentence: "What do you think of Nan Ruosu?" ”

"Although he has a bad reputation, he is the son of Uncle Nan after all, and he is also the only younger brother of the general, and his daughter can't bear to watch him have another accident!"

Li Ru didn't think about it and said it bluntly.

Li Ru couldn't help but shake his head and said, "What others say about him is just him in other people's mouths after all." ”

Li Ruxin didn't understand what her father meant, and Li Ru didn't explain.

Judging from the performance on Wanglong Mountain, he didn't feel that Nan Ruosu was as useless as others said.

Hearing her father's tone, Li Ruxin's heart jumped inexplicably, and she was surprised: "What? Listening to what my father meant, it seems that he has a different opinion of him? ”

Li Ruxin knows very well what his father's personality is, and he has never been interested in the younger generation.

"I don't know!"

Li Ru smiled: "However, he is indeed a very interesting young man." ”

"Interesting?"

Li Ruxin couldn't help but roll her eyes, if it weren't for the general's reason, she wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to that disgusting guy.

"What a story!"

Li Ru's expression suddenly moved, and he sneered: "A guest is coming, dad go over and take a look!" ”

"Guest?"

Li Ruxin was slightly stunned, and before she could speak, Li Ru had already gotten up and left.

After a while, Li Ruxin seemed to think of something and muttered, "Could it be that they are from the two major families?" ”

She got up and wanted to go with her, but on second thought, it didn't seem necessary.

As soon as Li Ru walked out of his daughter's courtyard with his front foot, the subordinates of the family hurriedly walked over.

"Master, there is a person named Bai Yusao outside who asks to see you!"

"Bring him to the main hall to meet me!"

Li Ru just gave a light explanation, and then got up and left.

Li Family Main Hall.

As soon as Li Ru sat down and picked up the teacup on the table, Bai Yusa was ushered in.

"Are you from the White Mansion?"

Before Bai Yusao could speak, Li Ru cut straight to the point, "I heard that you want to see it?" I don't know what to do? ”

"The contemptible Bai Mansion Bai Yusao has seen the head of the Li family."

Bai Yusao arched his hand and said: "Master Li, the contemptible people came here this time on the orders of the head of my family, and came to talk to the head of the Li family about cooperation. ”

Li Ru is naturally known to him, I heard that this person is a scribe, he has always been old-fashioned and has no scheming, and he does not understand the world, but this is indeed the case when I see it today.

Before coming, Bai Yusa originally thought of some polite words, but Li Ru didn't give him a chance to express himself, so he didn't bother to say it.

"Cooperation?"

Li Ru took a sip of tea and chuckled, "My Li family doesn't seem to have cooperated with your mansion before, right?" ”

Bai Yusa smiled hypocritically: "Everything has a first time!" Just because you didn't have it before doesn't mean you won't have it in the future. ”

"Not before, and not ever!"

Li Ru smiled on his face, and said lightly: "My Li family just wants to live in peace and stability, and I don't want to get involved in any grievances between right and wrong." ”

"Doesn't the head of the Li family want to know the specific cooperation matters?"

Bai Yusao didn't expect him to be so stubborn, and his face immediately turned cold.

"Am I not speaking clearly enough?"

Li Ru sneered and said, "Someone, send off!" ”

He could not have seen Bai Yusa, and the reason why he saw him was to show his attitude.

"Master Li, don't regret it!"

Bai Yushao's face was difficult to see the extreme, and she immediately brushed her sleeves away.

Originally, he thought that it would be the Duanmu family who would be difficult on this trip, after all, the Li family has always been a loner and has no background backer, but he didn't expect that the Li family was the stone in the latrine.

"The same words, Li will give it to Your Excellency as it is!"

Li Ru looked at his back, and the corners of his mouth showed a trace of disdain: "White Dragon City is still White Dragon City after all." ”

After that, he tasted tea calmly as if he was nothing.

After a while, Bai Yusao, who was angry, returned to Baifu.

"How's the negotiation going?"

Bai Youcai, who had been waiting for him to come back, immediately asked about the result with an eager face.

"There's nothing wrong with the Duanmu family!"

Bai Yusao thought about the wording and said, "It's just that Li Ru of the Li family......"

Bai Youcai slapped the case and said angrily: "What? He is a half-life talent, dare to disagree? ”

"Not only did he disagree, this Li Ru really didn't know what to do, he actually made a lot of nonsense, saying that our Baifu is something, and we deserve to talk about cooperation with him!"

And, he said, ......"

Seeing that he was a little stumbling, Bai Youcai said angrily: "What else do you say? ”

Bai Yusa said cautiously: "He is also the master of the mansion, you are just a reckless pus, and you are not worthy of lifting shoes for him." ”

After listening to his remarks, Bai Youcai's cheeks instantly turned blue, and he raised his hand and slapped the table next to him with a palm.

"How unreasonable is that! Since he wants to find death, then I will fulfill him first! ”

Although his name is Bai Youcai, he actually doesn't know a few big characters, so the most taboo thing for him is that others say that he is reckless.

"Mansion Master, it's not appropriate at this time!"

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that he was on the verge of going berserk, Bai Yusa hurriedly persuaded: "It's not easy to clean up his Li family?" But at this juncture, if we take the Li family first, I am afraid that it will cause the vigilance of the city lord's mansion. ”

"Although Nan Xuanji is no longer in White Dragon City, most of the guards in White Dragon City are supporters of Nan Xuanji, and if they are allowed to take precautions, it will inevitably affect our plans."

"It's better for us to destroy the City Lord's Mansion first, and then take care of his Li family, wouldn't it be easy?"

When Bai Youcai heard it, he also felt that what he said was not unreasonable, and immediately restrained his irritable mood and said, "Then according to what you say!" Destroy the City Lord's Mansion first, and then clean up some Li Ru! ”

"The matter of dividing up the City Lord's Mansion should be sooner rather than later, when do you think it is appropriate to do it?"

Bai Yusao thought for a while and said, "Just tonight, Nan Xuanji has just left, and at this time, the City Lord's Mansion is in a vacant period, and it is the easiest to start." ”

"Then you are responsible for liaising with the Duanmu family on this matter!"

Bai Youcai nodded and said, "By the way, Madam said before that I had something to discuss with you, and you would go over later." ”

Bai Yu's expression remained unchanged, and she said yes!
