Chapter Seventy-Three: The Master of the Proud Family (4)
PS: If you want to be in power, you must use thunder means, you can kill gods and demons, and so are your relatives!
The shadow of the tree is sultry, the dream is hard to break, even though time flies, in the bottom of Qinglong's heart, there is still a little memory of Ao Qingluo, the two people reunited after a long absence, even if things are wrong, but they are still reluctant, Ao Qingluo is even more with tears to awaken the long-buried feelings of Qinglong, looking down at the crying lover in his arms, Qinglong has a feeling of being in a different world, his eyes reveal a trace of tenderness, and he can't help but reach out to hug her......
But a few sudden knocks at the door woke him up from this dream like thunder, making his whole body shocked, and Ao Qingluo in his arms also hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Qinglong, how is it?, why is it so long......" I saw Yuanyang Xiuhong gently push open the door of the Demon King Hall and walked in slowly. She had been guarding the door with Sha Ying, worried that Ao Qingluo would not be able to convince Qinglong, and a long time had passed, so she was in a hurry to come in and take a look.
"Oh, it's okay, come in" Qinglong hurriedly pushed Ao Qingluo away in his arms, the lights in the Demon King Hall were dim, Yuanyang Xiuhong didn't notice Qinglong's actions, and Qinglong went straight to his wife, and blocked Ao Qingluo behind him.
"That'...... , does the demon king think that let Ao Qingluo serve as the head of the Ao family...... Is it feasible?" Yuan Yang Xiuhong looked at Qinglong with a nervous face, and then looked at Ao Qingluo behind him, but found that Ao Qingluo lowered her head and did not look at her.
"This ......" Qinglong hesitated, and stopped talking.
Actually, it's not that he doesn't want Ao Qingluo to be the head of the Ao family, it's just that in his impression, Ao Qingluo is just that a little rude girl, the so-called childishness has not gotten rid of it, and she has more than enough heart and strength, and she can't control the entire Ao family at all. The so-called hundred-legged insects, dead but not stiff, even if there is no Ao Lengshuang and Ao Tian, the two brothers Ao Guang, are only the elders of the Ao family, they are all old men of the Ao family, they are very prestigious in the Ao family, and they are all old slippery heads, how can they really tolerate a little woman riding on their heads, if they just use her as a puppet when the time comes. Or maybe the yang is against the yin. Wouldn't it be that he had completely lost control of the Ao family, making the Ao family a threat under his nose, how could Qinglong, who had just taken power, put his mind at ease.
"Demon King, are you worried about those old people of the Ao family? They won't be obedient?" After all, it was a couple who had been in trouble for many years, and Yuanyang Xiuhong immediately saw what Qinglong was worried about.
Seeing his wife's words, Qinglong couldn't help but smile, turned his head to look at Ao Qingluo, and before he could speak, Ao Qingluo raised his head. looked at Qinglong and Yuanyang Xiuhong with a serious face.
"Demon King, Demon Queen, since you still have concerns, I'll go back and make arrangements. Tomorrow's court meeting, in front of the hundred officials, I will let you see the evidence of me as the head of the Ao family, so that the two of you can be completely reassured. When the time comes. I also hope that the demon king can let our proud family have a way to live. After Ao Qingluo finished speaking, she bowed deeply to Qinglong and Yuanyang Xiuhong.
Before Qinglong could continue to ask, she added, "I hope the Demon King can let Prince Sand Eagle help me." He looked up at the green dragon. There was a coldness in his eyes.
Qinglong looked at Ao Qingluo, was silent for a moment, "Okay" Looking at Ao Qingluo's resolute appearance, Qinglong didn't say anything more, he turned his head and shouted to the sand eagle standing in the distance: "Fifth brother, you can accompany him on a trip." Everything is at her disposal. ”
"Yes, obey the order of the Demon King" Sha Ying bowed, but a trace of displeasure flashed on his face.
"Thank you, Demon King. I won't let you down. As soon as the words fell, Ao Qingluo got up and left in a hurry, and Sha Ying also followed, and the two of them left the Demon King Hall quickly.
Looking at the figures of the two leaving, especially looking at the expression on Ao Qingluo's face, Yuan Yang Xiuhong couldn't help but softly ask the Qinglong beside him, "Did ......Ao Qingluo cry?"
Qinglong remained silent, and smiled at Yuanyang Xiuhong, "Cry, what?" said and took Yuanyang Xiuhong's hand, "Let's go, the elders still have something to discuss, since you are here, just come with me, I also want to hear your opinion." ”
"Can I?" Yuanyang Xiuhong first looked at Qinglong with a little surprise, and when she saw Qinglong's sincere face, she couldn't help but smile, she was naturally overjoyed to be able to discuss state affairs with her husband, "Since the demon king has given the order, then I can only obey the order." As he spoke, he took Qinglong's hand and walked towards the apse of the Demon King Palace.
On the other hand, Ao Qingluo and Sha Ying, who left the Demon King Palace, rode the demon beast and went straight to the Ao family's mansion, along the way, Ao Qingluo was always thinking about what to do, and never paid attention to Sha Ying on the side, and Sha Ying also had a heavy face, thinking: "What is this woman going to do, I have discussed with Qinglong for a long time, how did she get Qinglong's trust...... No matter, anyway, sooner or later she will be my person, and when the time comes, with the help of the Ao family......" Sha Ying couldn't help but snicker in his heart, it turned out that when Ao Qingluo asked him to help him go to Yuanyang's house, he had already fallen in love with this beautiful woman, and more importantly, he found a chess piece to control the Ao family, as long as he could get Ao Qingluo, his power would increase greatly, so, before going to Yuanyang's house, the two reached an agreement, Sha Ying helped Ao Qingluo save the Ao family, and Ao Qingluo must be committed to him, which is why he is willing to take such a big risk to help Ao Qingluo. Sand Eagle pressed hard at his feet, urging the demon beast to follow closely behind Ao Qingluo.
The two soon arrived at the gate of the Ao family's mansion, only to see that the mansion was surrounded by bonfires, and around the bonfire stood full of sergeants, all fully armed, and there were squads patrolling from time to time, which can be said to surround the entire Ao family.
"Who?!" When the sergeants saw Ao Qingluo riding the demon beast, they immediately became nervous, picked up their weapons and surrounded them, blocking Ao Qingluo's face.
"Don't be rude, don't get out of the way" with a scolding, Sha Ying rode a demon beast and walked out from behind Ao Qingluo, his eyes widened, and he glared at everyone, and everyone put away their weapons and saluted respectfully, "Meet the general." ”
"General Sha, please take these sergeants with me to go in and arrest the remnants of the traitors. Ao Qingluo's face was numb, and she said coldly.
"Traitor?" Sha Ying looked at the woman beside him suspiciously, and when he noticed Ao Qingluo's cold eyes and numb expression, he suddenly understood in his heart, and a sneer flashed at the corner of his mouth, "The woman is ruthless." It's terrible."
"Good. Sha Ying replied while making a gesture to the guards at the gate to open the door, "All the soldiers obey the order! Arrest the traitor, meet resistance, kill! Don't!" The last few words, Sha Ying deliberately said one by one, so that the soldiers could hear them clearly. Ao Qingluo glared at Sha Ying, but didn't say anything, she jumped off the demon beast and walked straight towards the gate. Sand Eagle followed him with heavily armed sergeants.
In the Ao family's mansion, several elders of the family were discussing in the hall, they were all the most prestigious people in the Ao family, and even Ao Lengshuang was in awe of them before. At this time, several people were staring anxiously at Ao Qingluo's news. There is no such thing as the majesty of the past.
"It's back, it's back," a man rushed through the door, shouting at the crowd with excitement on his face.
"Are you back?" an old man hurriedly stepped forward to ask, he was the eldest Ao Song in the family, everyone called him Tai Ye, and he was Ao Lengshuang's distant uncle. This time, I was also caught in the Proud Family's mansion. Because he was the oldest and had a certain prestige, he quickly became the head of these people, and this time he also promised Ao Qingluo the matter of the head of the family.
"Yes. Master, I saw Ao Qingluo enter the door with my own eyes, and she was safe and sound!"
"Good," Aosong's face was full of joy. He looked back at the people behind him, "It seems that this girl really didn't break her promise, our proud family will not die." Everyone will know what to do later!" Everyone looked at each other, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding, and nodded their heads one after another.
At this moment, Ao Qingluo entered the hall alone and happened to meet Ao Song.
"Master, I'm back. Ao Qingluo saluted Ao Song with joy.
"How's the matter going?, where can the demon king have a turnaround!" Ao Song asked impatiently, waiting anxiously all night, it was a matter of life and death, and he couldn't care about any courtesy.
I saw Ao Qingluo's face happy, and nodded lightly at Ao Song, "The demon king has agreed! You can keep our Ao clan!" As soon as these words came out, Ao Song was suddenly relieved, as if he was reborn after death, he let out a long breath, and the haze on his face was swept away.
"Okay, I'll just say, Qingluo is the transfer pearl of our Ao family, and in times of crisis, it will definitely bring us a turnaround, now let's take a look, sure enough, sure enough, hahaha" Ao Song helped Ao Qingluo with a happy face, and said loudly to the people behind him, and a few people who were still anxious just now suddenly smiled.
"It's just...... The Demon King hopes that our Ao family will openly admit that my aunt has committed rebellion at tomorrow's court meeting, and bow down to the Demon King. Ao Qingluo said, looking at Ao Song.
"Well, this is natural, Ao Lengshuang made a rebellion, couldn't help but harm the first king, and almost ruined the lives of our Ao clan, and he deserved to die! Now, as long as he can save the life of my Ao clan, everything else is not a problem, not a problem!" In Ao Song's view, to be able to get the promise of the Demon King's immortal clan, all other conditions are not a problem, in the final analysis, in the face of life, what status and power seem insignificant. And Ao Lengshuang has also changed from the glory of the Ao family to the scourge of the Ao family overnight, which can be described as a hot and cold world.
"Qingluo, you've been busy all night, you must be tired, go and rest early" Ao Song still had a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of concern. However, in the face of Ao Song's so-called concern, Ao Qingluo's heart sank suddenly, "This old guy, sure enough, is ready to send me to 'rest', without mentioning anything about the head of the family, it is clearly intended to perfunctory me, it seems that ......" Thinking of this, Ao Qingluo smiled coldly," Master, for the sake of the proud family, I should be tired of this, not to mention that I shoulder the burden of the head of the family, naturally I should do my best to run for everyone, now I have fulfilled my promise, I don't know if the master can hand over the token of the head of the family to me in advance, and I will participate in tomorrow's court meeting in a good name. ”
Ao Song still smiled, but there was a chill in his eyes, "Qingluo, look at you, you are so tired, tomorrow's court meeting will be attended by a few of us on behalf of the Ao family, we are all old people of the Ao family, and it is time to sell some strength for the Ao family, not to mention that we have experienced more than this kind of scene, more experienced than you young people, as for the token of the head of the family, first put it with me, and when the time is ripe, your position in the family is stable, and then it is not too late to hand it over to you, young people should be calm!" Ao Song turned around as he spoke, his back to Ao Qingluo, and the elders of the clan nodded frequently, "The master is really thoughtful and thoughtful!"
"However, before leaving, the master promised that as long as I got the order of the demon king not to kill, I could take the position of the head of the family, besides, in front of the demon king, I appeared as the head of the family, if I let the demon king know that I failed to become the head of the family in the end, I am afraid it would be ......" Ao Qingluo gradually lost her smile and stared straight at Ao Song's back.
"It's not that the master doesn't want you to be the head of the house, it's just that the situation is critical now, for the sake of the overall situation, the master will be in charge first, and when the time comes, it will naturally be you young people, don't worry, don't worry" "That's it, that's it, after all, we old people have a lot of experience and can handle these things with ease." Everyone on the side stepped forward to persuade them.
Seeing that these old people in the clan had no intention of handing over the token of the head of the family, and then looking at their fake faces, listening to their big truths, Ao Qingluo couldn't help but be angry in her heart, and her eyes were full of bloodshots.
"I understand what the elders mean, and when I see that the situation is clear, I don't want to let go of power?
"Presumptuous!" Aosong let out a low roar, which startled everyone.
"Qingluo, how do you speak, isn't this all the elders' concern for you, you see that the master is angry, you don't want to inch in!" Everyone was admonished for a while, seeing that Ao Qingluo was unmoved, everyone turned to hug Ao Song and left, "Master, you first dissipate your anger, dissipate your anger, don't be like her." As he spoke, he walked towards the back hall.
"Don't leave!" I heard a loud roar, and a group of soldiers broke into the door, with swords in hand, iron armor to protect themselves, and a cold and murderous look on their faces, blocking Ao Song and the others who were just about to leave, and the elders couldn't help but tremble when they saw this formation, and the panicked people were surrounded by the soldiers.
"Yo, where are you going!" Just as everyone was in shock, they heard a mockery from behind the soldiers...... (To be continued......)
