Chapter 46: The dog thief Xu Lan dared to lie to me
Qingzhou, outside the city.
The crowd was bustling, and the heads of the families in Qingzhou appeared here.
In officialdom, although people take tea and cool,
However, because there is no guarantee that they will return to Qingzhou in the future, some superficial work must be done.
Some people who couldn't come also sent people to send them off,
For example, Sun Hongying of the Sun family,
Even if she didn't come, she also sent Lin Jun, the chief manager of the Sun family, to see her off.
But to everyone's surprise,
Recently, the Xu family, which has been in the limelight, has not seen anyone.
This made many people whisper,
didn't even come forward on such occasions, Xu Lan was really not afraid of being put in small shoes by the people of the yamen in the future?
In the crowd, Chen Ci had already changed into the iconic black robe of the Hanging Mirror Division,
The whole person looks heroic,
At this moment, no one dared to look at her wherever she looked.
Imperial concessions, first cut and then play,
This is the right that the eldest princess has given to the Hanging Mirror Division,
None of the people present were willing to provoke the Hanging Mirror Division.
"Let's go."
Chen Ci snorted coldly, and the dust suddenly flew up.
The officials were required to return to Kyoto to report on their duties, while the troops that had been used as the Qingzhou City Guards rushed to other directions.
And at the same time in the Xu Mansion,
Xu Lan is persuading his mother to go to the Taoist temple outside the city to live for a few days.
"Are you hiding something from me?"
Yan Yu stared at Xu Lan in front of him,
I always feel that he is hiding something from him.
How can a good person let himself go to a Taoist temple outside the city to live for a few days?
"How so?"
Xu Lan said with a smile: "It's just that the child thinks that his mother is too hard during this time, and it is also excellent to go to the Taoist temple outside the city to rest for a few days." β
During this time, some big and small things in the Xu Mansion were handled by Yan Yu.
She's really worked hard.
"Really?"
Yan Yuhu was suspicious,
Then he said: "Miss Chen Ci left today, why don't you send her off?" β
"Let's go, it's a big deal."
Xu Lan said casually,
According to the original plan, Chen Ci will take people back a hundred miles away from Qingzhou.
Even the 3,000 black-armored iron cavalry would return and camp outside the city, and then enter the city after dark.
Hearing this, Yan Yu was even more angry,
Twisting Xu Lan's ears, he said in a tone of hatred: "Why don't you kid open your mind and leave Miss Chen behind." β
How could she not see the relationship between her son and Miss Chen Ci during this time,
These two people are already at a rather ambiguous level,
Maybe he only needs Xu Lan to take the initiative a little bit, maybe he will have a daughter-in-law.
Speaking of which, Yan Yu also had a headache,
Xu Lan is almost at this age to get married, and when he goes back to the child, his father has to put this matter on the agenda.
"In this case, it is better to go to the Taoist temple to pray for the child's blessing, and see if Miss Chen can be brought back."
"Really?"
Yan Yu thought about it, this is a good idea.
"Haha, of course it's true."
In the end, Yan Yu still couldn't resist Xu Lan and went to the Taoist temple outside the city, so that he would no longer have to worry about the future.
In this way, Xu Lan waited until the sky was about to darken,
A dozen or so figures in disguise entered the Xu Mansion one after another, led by Chen Ci and the rest of the Hanging Mirror Division.
"I'm tired of you today."
Xu Lan hugged his fists and said with a smile, the foundation of the Hanging Mirror Division was much stronger than he imagined.
Among the group of people in front of him, in addition to the Great Perfection of the Three Realms,
More than half of the remaining dozen or so people were cultivators of the Three Realms, and the worst was also the Great Perfection of the Second Realm.
Probably considering that there are outsiders there,
Chen Ci did not show too familiar behavior, but remained cold and stood aside.
"Childe doesn't need to say thank you."
One of them clenched his fists and smiled, "Being able to exterminate the rebels of the Demon Sect is also a rare opportunity for us and others. β
For the people of the Hanging Mirror Division,
Being able to catch more Demon Cult Rebels is equivalent to getting more rewards in the Hanging Mirror Division.
This kind of win-win thing no one will refuse.
However, at this moment,
There was a movement in Xu's mansion,
You can even vaguely hear someone shouting, "Dog thief Xu Lan..."
"Huh?"
Xu Lan and Chen Ci looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Sun Hongying, why is she here?
The two had seen Sun Hongying and heard her voice, and it was easy to identify each other at the moment.
"The Sun family's movements are much faster than I expected..."
Xu Lan sighed slightly in his heart,
He didn't expect the Sun family's movements to be so fast.
In just a few days, not only did he open up the ore vein passage, but he even dug down to find the formation master's cave.
As long as Sun Hongying found the cave mansion, she knew that the inheritance of that strong man had fallen into the hands of others.
So... Naturally, she became the object of her suspicion.
"Childe, someone from the Sun family is here."
At this time, Qingluan walked in with an anxious look on her face,
"yes, I see."
Xu Lan rubbed his eyebrows and said, "It's really not the right time to come..."
The Demon Sect they are going to deal with tonight, Sun Hongying's sideways intervention at this time will add a lot of variables.
"I'm going to convince her to leave."
Chen Ci said expressionlessly,
As one of the insiders, she can understand why Sun Hongying is so out of shape.
But the most important thing for her is to solve the affairs of the Demon Cult.
"You can't convince her."
Xu Lan shook his head and said, "Other people may be jealous of your identity as the Hanging Mirror Division, but she may not be. β
No matter how you say it, Sun Hongying is also a cultivator of the Great Perfection of the Four Realms,
Chen Ci wanted to use the identity of the Hanging Mirror Division to press her,
I'm afraid it won't work.
"So what?"
Chen Ci frowned,
According to Xu Lan's speculation, tonight will be the best opportunity for the Demon Sect to do it.
Whether it was the Hanging Mirror Division or the three thousand black-armored iron cavalry outside the city, they were all deployed for this purpose.
But at this moment, Sun Hongying's unexpected appearance is likely to make the Demon Sect jealous and even dare not make a move.
In this way, everything they have done for it is equivalent to the loss of their previous efforts!
If you miss this opportunity, you can't wait for the next one.
"Let her in, I'll talk to her."
Xu Lan smiled calmly,
The most important thing now is not how to solve this matter, but to fool Sun Hongying and ask her to withdraw the person first.
"Qingluan, you go and bring her in, saying that I only saw her."
Soon Qingluan took Sun Hongying into the courtyard where Xu Lan was,
The moment Sun Hongying came in, she noticed that there were more than a dozen cultivation auras in the courtyard.
"Hanging Mirror?"
Sun Hongying stopped walking, her little face full of surprise.
In these breaths, she sensed a familiar aura, and this aura happened to be the clichΓ© she had seen before!
But didn't the people from the Hanging Mirror Division leave Qingzhou today?
"Miss Sun, don't come unharmed?"
Xu Lan's voice came from the front, and Sun Hongying suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "Dog thief Xu Lan, you dare to lie to me!?" β
