Chapter 6: The Assassin's Aftermath
"No, Chonglou, you misunderstood, I don't mean that we will withdraw from the marriage, but I hope that you will take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, in this case, it is reasonable to the outside world. Shen Fengyang opened the box in front of him as he spoke, and suddenly, the entire hall was full of jewels, and the huge box was full of gold, silver and jewelry, neat and tidy, obviously prepared for a long time.
Ye Chonglou didn't even look at it, and continued to say coldly: "Reasonable, hehe, Hou Ye is really merciful, if we propose to withdraw from the marriage, outsiders will not say that your Shen family is ungrateful, we propose to withdraw from the marriage, you can grandly find a prince and grandson worthy of her for your daughter, you can say it reasonably, but in the eyes of outsiders, we are just trying to eat swan meat by a toad, and finally sent away by a box of jewelry!"
"Chonglou, if you think so, I can't help it, these jewels are not to buy the marriage contract, but just to compensate for the virtuous nephew. After all, you have to be clear that Ye Chong has no talent in martial arts, and with these jewels, he can at least live a life of food and clothing and live the life of a rich squire. Although Shen Fengyang still used cordial words when he said this, his voice also cooled down a lot.
This can be regarded as spreading out the words, Ye Chong thought silently.
Such hypocrisy, in the last life on Earth, he was already not surprised. Shen Fengyang just didn't want to be ungrateful and didn't want his daughter to marry a waste wood. It's understandable to have this kind of thought, but with this kind of layout, this attitude is a little disgusting.
Ye Chonglou also got up, took out a red sticker from his arms, threw it to Ye Chong, and said, "Since it is your marriage contract, it's up to you to make the decision." ”
Ye Chong was stunned, it was all at this point, how else could he decide? Could it be that he didn't agree to break the contract? Crying and hugging his thighs and saying I just want to marry your daughter?
Immediately, I heard Shen Fengyang's somewhat excited voice, "Virtuous nephew, not to mention the wealth in this box, it is more than enough for you to be rich in any city other than Chaoge." ”
Ye Chong looked at his father, could it be that this cheap dad wants to try his heart?
He couldn't help but smile helplessly, got up slowly, and put the wedding card on the table in front of Shen Fengyang, "I am indeed quite a wastewood, and I am indeed not worthy of the daughter of your proud daughter that day, the Shen family does not owe me anything, so I agree to dissolve the marriage contract, and in the same way, you don't need to give me any jewelry." ”
He paused and said, "As for the grievances between my father and the Shen family, it has nothing to do with me, nor does it have anything to do with this dissolution of the marriage contract. ”
Shen Fengyang's eyes immediately turned cold, this Ye Chong, there is something in his words!
This box of jewelry, in the final analysis, is still for Ye Chonglou, in addition to replacing the marriage contract, he also has to pay off his kindness to the Shen family, and Ye Chong rejected the jewelry, which also rejected his Shen family and Ye Chonglou's thoughts of both kindness and wealth. Especially his words, the implication is that I have no relationship with your Shen family, and I don't want to repay the favor, so I dissolved the marriage contract, you don't owe me, but you will always owe my father.
The Shen family will always owe Ye Chonglou!
This is also the most true thought in Ye Chong's heart, not only the other party's request to dissolve the marriage contract, what really made him say this sentence was that Ye Chonglou had been farming in the countryside for many years, and no one in the Shen family took the initiative to care.
From their conversation, Ye Chong has determined the fact that Ye Chonglou has the grace to save his life with the old marquis of the Shen family, if it weren't for Ye Chonglou's help, his Shen family would not have the Hou Mansion of today's Gaomen Compound, and would not have a prominent title and power, which is also recognized by Shen Fengyang himself.
However, Ye Chonglou is just a farmer in the end, Ye Chonglou must have made meritorious contributions, just with his life-saving grace back then, the old marquis would not treat him badly, otherwise, the old marquis of the Shen family would not have made a marriage contract. Ye Chong could imagine that there must have been an accident many years ago, which made Ye Chonglou down, but the Shen family, Shen Fengyang, was like a bystander, watching coldly, otherwise he would never let him fall and not help.
Shen Fengyang's arrogance and meanness hidden under the appearance of hypocrisy can't hide Ye Chong, who fought hard in the mall in his previous life.
It's just that Ye Chong doesn't know much about Ye Chonglou's past, so he uses the word "grievance" vaguely.
However, these words pierced Shen Fengyang's heart like a knife.
Because in his words, he is telling the truth.
Many years ago, Ye Chonglou was indeed famous, and even in this dynasty, he was even more famous than him Shen Fengyang, and Shen Fengyang, who was the little marquis, was also jealous of this. So much so that when Ye Chonglou suffered an accident later, from the first assassin on the top to a down-and-out farmer, Shen Fengyang got the news in advance, but chose to stand by and watch.
This is a thorn in Shen Fengyang's heart.
Ye Chong provoked this thorn.
So Shen Fengyang's eyes when he looked at Ye Chong became gloomy, has the little thing that was timid and cowardly when he first entered the Hou Mansion two years ago become so sharp-toothed now?
A gloom rose in his heart.
At this moment, a blazing golden light flashed and crashed into the box full of jewels.
Boom!
There was a bang.
The jewels in the box suddenly exploded, shooting in all directions like shrapnel after a lightning explosion, and the sound of ping-pong jewels hitting the walls, windows, and falling to the ground suddenly sounded in the entire main hall.
The two doors of the main hall were suddenly opened, and four men in strong suits and holding Bing Ge rushed in, protecting Shen Fengyang in front of the panicked Shen Fengyang, and Dao Ge pointed at Ye Chonglou.
"Ye Chonglou, what are you going to do?" Shen Fengyang looked at Ye Chonglou with a gloomy face.
"What am I going to do? Hehe, what can I do? My Qi Sea was abolished more than ten years ago, and I can't arrange for my subordinates to ambush Hou Ye outside the window at any time, tell me, what can I do?" Ye Chonglou looked at Shen Fengyang with a sneer, and said word by word: "But I'm afraid you will forget, I was born as an assassin, and assassins are all people with secrets, even if Qi Hai is abolished, there is still money to do such a job as killing!"
Shen Fengyang's face was pale, these four masters were indeed ambushed by him outside in advance, although he was very clear about the abolition of Ye Chonglou's Qihai, but everyone knew that this guy was carrying a murderous weapon, and no one knew what it was so far.
So Shen Fengyang had to take precautions, in case things were not properly discussed in the main hall, the other party was annoyed and angry, he had to think about his own life, and he had never been afraid to speculate on others with the greatest malice.
As Ye Chonglou said, he was an assassin.
Sure enough, he also has the ability to kill.
That blazing golden light was emitted by Ye Chonglou, and Shen Fengyang knew very well that this was the other party's warning to himself. Because he had bad intentions towards Ye Chong at that moment just now, he didn't want this sharp-toothed son, especially the one to whom their Shen family was indebted, to continue to stay in Chaoge City.
Ye Chonglou's move was to cut off his thoughts and dare to use means against my son, and I will kill you!
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Shen Fengyang's forehead, many years ago, when Ye Chonglou was still the first assassin of the country, he was afraid of this guy, and now that long-lost fear came to his heart again.
The corners of Shen Fengyang's mouth twitched, "Forgive...... I don't want to send it far!"
"Let's go!" Ye Chonglou glanced at Ye Chong, put his hands behind his back, and swaggered out.
Ye Chong hurriedly followed, he looked at Ye Chonglou's back, and the shock in his heart was incomprehensible. He had just seen with his own eyes that after the golden light burst the jewelry box, it returned to Ye Chonglou's body in a flash.
This situation is exactly the same as the little sword in his dantian!
The sea of qi was abolished, but it could still have such power, except for the artifact that was the same as the small sword in his dantian, Ye Chong could no longer find a reasonable explanation.
Assassin, yes, that little sword is not the best weapon for assassins!
......
After the father and son of the Ye family left, a graceful and luxurious woman soon walked into the main hall.
"That Ye Chonglou is too arrogant!" the woman couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she looked at the broken jewels all over the floor.
Shen Fengyang motioned for a few men in strong suits around him to leave, and looked at the woman: "Qian'er came in just now to make trouble, you instigated it, right?"
The woman snorted, "That little country bastard is not worthy of our family, don't you think so?" ”
"Alright. Shen Fengyang waved his hand and said, "This matter has passed, and since the marriage contract has been dissolved, don't mention it again in the future." Where's Qian'er?"
When the girl heard the news of the dissolution of the marriage contract, she ran out, saying that she was going to Qinglan Academy to tell her sister not to worry about this matter anymore. The woman crouched down and carefully picked up the unbroken jewels on the floor.
"Nonsense, now there are more than ten days left before the assessment of the Divine General's Academy, she can't practice at home, what is running around!"
"Why are you worried about this, Qian'er opened up a sea of qi half a year ago, and these days she has practiced the martial arts of the Shen family, what can be the problem of passing the assessment!" Speaking of this, the woman paused for a moment and looked up at Shen Fengyang, "By the way, will the kid surnamed Ye also participate in this assessment, then won't Qian'er have a martial arts academy with him in the future?" I think it's better to wait, let Qian'er go to the Qinglan Academy and be with her sister." ”
"You know what. Shen Fengyang stroked his mustache, "I asked Qian'er to go to the Divine General Academy, naturally I have my reason, as for Ye Chong's kid, hmph, he hasn't opened up the sea of qi yet, waste one, don't worry about it!"
