Chapter 565: An Invitation from the City Lord's Mansion
Seeing this, the old man's eyes widened instantly, and then he began to pretend to be pitiful, "Little girl, I'm a prisoner, where is the money on me, and my only hairpin is still in your hand, if you like it, I'll give it to you." ”
Jiang Yuling didn't expect him to really come up with something, so he said lightly, "Okay, this hairpin can barely be used as a reward." ”
Playing with the hairpin in his hand, he pointed to his face at the old man, and then pointed to Qiu Yue next to him, "Are we good-looking?" ”
"It's pretty." The old man didn't understand why she did this, but he still replied honestly, "But you shouldn't be from Leizhou." "After all, Leizhou can't give birth to such a tender little girl.
"Your reaction is not right, too calm." Jiang Yuling retracted his gaze and said lightly.
As soon as these words came out, the old man instantly understood, and then he looked unconvinced, "Little girl, you may not be too confident." ”
Jiang Yuling finished eating the last bite of noodles and stood up, proud as a white swan, "So what." ”
After solving this farce, Jiang Yuling and Qiu Yue continued to shop.
"Little Lemon, have you noticed that every vendor here is smiling unusually happy?" After walking for a while, Qiu Yue suddenly said to her.
"No... Forget it, you can call it whatever you like. Jiang Yuling sighed and looked at the surrounding vendors, indeed everyone was filled with the joy of a bumper harvest.
"Do you know what that means? This means that Ye Sisi has already patronized them. ”
After listening to it, Qiu Yue felt that it was a little outrageous, but what to put on Ye Sisi was unusually reasonable.
"Shall we buy it then?" Qiu Yue asked.
"Do you think we can still buy something with Ye Sisi's handwriting?"
QIU Yue; “… Let's move on. ”
The two of them judged through the smiles on the faces of the two small vendors that they had been poisoned by Ye Sisi, and then looked for them all the way, and none of them were spared.
"Ye Sisi is probably crazy during this time, if we try to change streets, there should be more than one commercial street in Azure City." Jiang Yuling suggested.
Qiu Yue nodded without hesitation, "Okay." ”
It seems that Ye Sisi will not be able to have too much money in her hands in the future, and the two of them thought at the same time.
The two soon changed to a new commercial street, which was as lively as the previous one, and it was not swept away by Ye Sisi.
The two walked on the street, their eyes swept over the small stall, they didn't deliberately want to buy anything, they walked all the way, looked all the way, as if they were looking at the flowers.
Although there are many vendors who claim that their things come from secret realms or the ruins of caves left by great powers, most of them are just ordinary things.
However, they didn't rush to pick up the leaks, so they didn't feel lost.
At this time, a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby body and a kind face stopped in front of them.
As soon as they met, he arched his hand at the two of them, and said in a gentle tone, "Thank you two young ladies for helping the City Lord's Mansion catch the escaped wanted criminal, and the City Lord specially asked me to invite the two of you to the City Lord's Mansion, and I hope to enjoy the light." ”
Jiang Yuling and Qiu Yue glanced at each other, not understanding what kind of medicine was sold in the city lord's gourd, so they said, "It's just a gesture, and there's no need to thank or anything." ”
Seeing Jiang Yuning's refusal, the smile on the middle-aged man's face remained unchanged, "The City Lord just likes to promote the juniors he fancies, by the way, the friends of the two of you, Miss Ye and Young Master Luo, have also received invitations, and they are already waiting for you in the City Lord's Mansion." ”
Qiu Yue's face turned cold, "Are you threatening us?" ”
The middle-aged man realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said, "That's not the case, I'm just stating a fact, our City Lord's Mansion doesn't have any malicious intentions, and besides you, the City Lord has invited others." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Yuling couldn't help but be interested, and said, "I know, we'll go." ”
Seeing that Jiang Yuling agreed, the middle-aged man who came to invite couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and smiled again and said, "In this case, the City Lord's Mansion is waiting for the two of them to come."
After the middle-aged man left, Qiu Yue was a little worried, "There won't be any traps in this, right?" ”
Jiang Yuling shook her head, "Probably not, and didn't you listen to him, they didn't just invite a few of us, I think there must be something else in this." ”
"What could that be, so mysterious?"
"Who knows." Jiang Yuling shrugged, "But even if there is really something, the initiative is still with us." ”
Jiang Yuling and the two found a teahouse, and then called out the first year of junior high who had been hiding in the shadows.
"How much do you know about the Azure City Lord?"
Chu Yi didn't have any reluctance in his heart about Jiang Yuning's use of him as a tool, after all, compared to the tasks given to him by the young master, it was just to investigate a person, and he didn't need to do it himself.
Soon, information about the city lord of Azure City appeared in front of Jiang Yuling.
"Are you sure this information is accurate?"
Chu Yi clasped his hands into fists and said in a serious tone, "Sure." ”
"Okay, I see."
"What's wrong?" Qiu Yue asked curiously, a little puzzled why Jiang Yuling just glanced at the information in his hand, and the expression on his face changed several times.
"See for yourself." Jiang Yuling handed over the information in his hand.
I saw that on the first page, it was written that the city lord of Azure City was named Huang Hexin, a female, an ordinary person without any cultivation.
Although there were serious differences between the several states in the upper realm, it was unprecedented for an ordinary person to become the lord of a city, and even if the other city lords agreed, the cultivators would not allow an ordinary person to ride on top of them.
Putting away the information, Jiang Yuling and Qiu Yue got up and walked in the direction where the City Lord's Mansion was located.
After coming to the City Lord's Mansion, the middle-aged man he had seen before had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw the two of them appear, he immediately greeted them, and then led them with a respectful face.
After approaching the City Lord's Mansion, they passed through a scenic corridor along the way, but before they could reach the main hall where the banquet was held, they heard a burst of sounds begging for mercy and the sound of crackling whips not far away.
"What's going on over there?" Jiang Yuling stopped and asked.
"It's just punishing some disobedient people." The middle-aged man said unconcernedly.
"Presumably, the two of you already know that our city lord is just an ordinary person who has no cultivation, and as an ordinary person, if you want to manage a city, you naturally need some iron-blooded means."
