Chapter 13: Staying in the City Lord's Mansion
Fu Lao went to Yuncheng for a while, and after having a good chat with Yunxiao Mountain, this Ning Beimen was also invited into the Cloud City Lord's Mansion.
After some in-depth consultations, Ning Beimen tentatively promised that he would not trouble the Fan family again.
However, after Ning Beimen left, Fu Lao's heart was faintly worried.
Yun Xiaoshan also received a secret order from the Martial Sect, and he would give up the position of city lord to Ningbeimen.
It's a little awkward.
In the future, Fan Yi and this Ning Jun will abide by the agreement between the two cities of Rongyun together, and even the old man has no bottom in his heart.
Fortunately, if Qin Sheng left Rongcheng, then he could still help Fan Yi for a while.
It's just that the old man will be summoned by Wu Zong to leave, no one can say.
If the old man leaves Rongcheng, I am afraid that there is no one in the entire Rongcheng who can contain the north gate of Ning.
Although Ning Junzhi did not dare to attack Rongcheng openly after receiving the Great Seal of the City Lord's Mansion, he would definitely make a mistake behind his back.
For example, conniving at the martial artists of the family in Yuncheng and going to the Yunze Spirit Mine Mountain Range to be a demon and make a stumbling block will also make Fan Yi very uncomfortable.
Fu Lao also had a sense of urgency in his heart.
Qin Sheng had to hand over the affairs in his hand within a month, and then he had to leave Rongcheng.
After Fan Yi went home that night, he had a big drink with his father and a group of warriors in the family.
The next day he ordered his servant to fetch eighteen iron rods, which were only the thickness of a teacup, and plant them in the open space in his inner courtyard.
In the morning, he went to practice boxing, and in the evening, he used medicine to boil his body.
In this way, he swung his fist ten thousand times, condensed his fist intent as he wanted, and retracted and released it freely.
On the sixth day.
Early in the morning, the steward of the Lin family came to visit the Fan family, and it turned out that he was sending an invitation.
The Lin family and the Shangguan family had a great event.
Young Master Lin Xiu will hold a big wedding with Shangguan Lin three days later.
Now.
Fan Yi stood beside Fan Zhefu, he took the invitation from his father and looked at it carefully.
After Fan Zhefu sent away the Lin family's steward, the expression on his face suddenly became worried.
Fan Yi looked at the name on the invitation, and reacted in an instant, during the last martial arts trial, the Shangguan family suddenly announced that they would give up the top four places to the Lin family.
It turned out that the agreement between the two families was about this matter, Fan Yi praised it and said with a smile:
"Father, it seems that in the future, the Lin family and the Shangguan family will be of the same mind. I really admire Brother Lin Xiu, he is decisive, not only won the Keqing waist card, but also hugged the beauty, haha! ”
Fan Zhefu glanced at his son and said:
"Yi'er, you're so smart on weekdays, can't you see the cattiness in it? This Lin family and Shangguan are married, so the status of the Lin family in Rongcheng is definitely higher than that of the Li family and our Fan family, aren't you worried? ”
Fan Yi pinched one corner of the invitation, fanned the wind, and said:
"Father, I haven't read a lot of books, and of course I know what's at stake, but we don't have to worry about it. The Lin family and the Shangguan family are married, which is not necessarily a bad thing for us. ”
"Think about it, if the Li family also received this invitation, what would their Li family do?"
Hearing this, Fan Zhefu patted his head, and then his face began to improve, and he said:
"Yi'er, you see I'm really confused, according to what you say, now the Li family must also want to find an ally to contain the Lin family. And the only one who can contain the Lin family is our Fan family, does that mean it? ”
Fan Yi nodded slyly, and said:
"In my opinion, it doesn't take three days for Brother Li to come to me, so I have to think about it in advance, and set up conditions when the time comes, so that when my father negotiates with the Li family, he will not be unprepared."
Fan Zhefu was in a good mood, so he stood up and said:
"My family Yi'er is smart, for my father, I'm going to prepare a gift for the Lin family, haha!"
Saying that, Fan Zhefu stood up, humming a little song, and was about to walk out of the hall.
Fan Yi thought for a moment and added:
"Father, don't be too light on this gift."
Fan Zhefu didn't look back, waved his hand and said:
"Stinky boy, don't worry, the old man won't be confused!"
Fan Yi laughed twice, then walked out of the hall again, ready to go back to the inner courtyard and continue to practice boxing.
Anyway, Chang Long said that it would take at least a year to return his Dantian Qi Mansion, so there seemed to be nothing to do other than practicing boxing.
Fan Yi is a relatively low-key type of person among the children of many families in Rongcheng, who likes to read and prefers to practice martial arts.
This is not as free and easy as Li Baihuo.
It is rumored that on the night of Li Bai's sixteenth birthday, he had nothing to do, so he followed a vassal Li family's warrior and went to Goolan to listen to music.
After being known by the head of the Li family, it was a night of chasing and beating all over the city.
Since that time, he has loved the place deeply.
Whenever you are free and your waist is swollen, you have to cultivate it.
Of course, teenagers really just go to listen to music.
The so-called: thousands of flowers have passed, and the leaves do not stick to the body.
This is Li Bai's favorite sentence to say when he is questioned by others.
After the Li family received the invitation from the Lin family, Father Li hurriedly asked Li Bai to come to Fan's house to find Fan Yi, probably also to form an alliance and come over in advance to blow the wind.
Unexpectedly, Li Bai just walked halfway down, but he heard that a new Oiran had come, and Li Bai didn't think about it, so he went to listen to the music again.
It was almost evening.
Fan Yi was still practicing boxing in the inner courtyard, and at this moment, the personal servant came panting to report.
The little guy said that an important person came to visit, and the head of the family, Fan Zhefu, had already gone to greet him in advance, and the person had just gotten off the sedan chair and didn't see who it was.
Fan Yi jumped off the iron stake, clapped his hands and said:
"You go and get some food, and I'll go when I'm full of food and drink, it must be Brother Li Bai."
The little guy hurriedly said:
"Young master, the master said that he was a distinguished guest, and he couldn't wait for a long time, so he had to go over immediately."
Fan Yi said with a dark face:
"Matters related to the interests of the family must be calm. Even if the head of the Li family came in person, he still had to let him wait, and his father just couldn't hold his breath. ”
"Listen to me, let's go and prepare first!"
The little guy scratched his head blankly, and then went down to prepare.
Fan Yi returned to the house, washed his face comfortably, and waited for the little maid to come in with food, and then ate and drank slowly and leisurely.
Duration.
Fan Zhefu sent someone to urge him twice, but he let the little guy leave.
Fan Yi packed up and stopped before walking to the hall.
However.
When he was still ten zhang away from the hall, he heard Fan Zhefu's roar:
"Do you eat dry food? asked you to call Fan Yi over, it's been twice, why hasn't you come for so long? ”
At this time, an old man's voice came, and he smiled dryly:
"The head of the Fan family is angry, and the old man can wait."
It didn't matter, but it scared Fan Yi a lot.
Isn't this voice the old man in charge of the City Lord's Mansion?
Fan Yi hurriedly trotted up, his heart was up and down, and he scolded himself in a low voice, saying:
"Why is the old man here? It's a big deal this time, damn it! ”
As soon as I entered the door, I found my father standing sideways in front of the old man.
And the old man sat in Fan Zhefu's usual seat, drinking tea slowly and methodically.
Fan Yi's heart tightened, and he hurriedly went up and bowed to the old man three times.
Said:
"You're old, and the juniors were practicing boxing just now, and they couldn't control the momentum for a while, so it's too late."
After hearing this, the old man laughed and said:
"It's okay little guy, the old man is not in a hurry, you can wait, oh yes, don't stand still, please sit down."
Fan Zhefu hurriedly bowed, then glared at Fan Yi viciously, and trembled to find a seat and sit down.
Fan Yi said in his heart:
"No wonder I heard it from afar, and the old man said that he could wait, but it turned out that my father was punished for standing, and he was sitting and drinking tea."
Fan Yi didn't dare to look directly at his father, and his heart was empty.
Fu Lao coughed lightly and said:
"Okay Fan Zhefu, since this kid is already here, let him go with me, there are many things in the city lord's mansion."
Hearing this, Fan Zhefu hurriedly agreed:
"Okay, Fu Lao."
Fan Yi was stunned when he heard this, and asked:
"Where are you going?"
Fan Zhefu said angrily:
"The old man of the mansion took the order of the city lord and took you to the city lord's mansion to live for half a month, after you went, it was best to give me a little peace, don't live up to the city lord's expectations of you!"
Fan Yi: "...! ”
