259. Chapter 257

"I'm sorry for making you wait for a long time, I'm Ning Keran, the city lord of Ning City, and this is my son Ning Yu. A middle-aged woman with a slightly fat figure and a slightly out of shape walked in with a peaceful smile on her face.

Her appearance is purely the kind of person who is not easy to find if she throws her hand in the crowd, and even her eyes are gentle, and it is really difficult to link her to the lord of a city, but people have clearly introduced themselves.

Didn't let a few people wait too long, or to be precise, there was almost no waiting, the maid in the mansion just poured the tea and retreated, and the city lord of ningcheng came in, this time was just right, and it was just a polite statement to say that waiting for a long time.

These people are definitely not people who judge people by their appearance, but Wu Qingya has always believed in her judgment and intuition, her gaze drifted from the man behind the city lord of Ning, he lowered his head slightly and lowered his eyes so that people could not see the emotions in his eyes, but Wu Qingya's intuition told her that this man was definitely not as timid as he seemed on the surface.

"The city lord is polite, we are bold and presumptuous!" This was actually a test of how the city lord Ning guessed that they would come to the city lord's mansion, but the other party just responded politely, as if he hadn't heard the subtext at all.

"I don't know where they are? It shouldn't be the people of my Ningcheng. ”

Nonsense, isn't this talking nonsense with your eyes open?

However, Yili still replied politely, "We are from Cangming Country, and we are going home through Guicheng." ”

"It turned out to be a distinguished guest from Cangming, that... Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking a few of you who are here..."The City Lord Ning wanted to speak and stopped, but the meaning of what he wanted to ask was already very obvious.

[Miss, this city lord is really unhappy, going around. Xiaoxue is not familiar with human nature, so naturally she doesn't like such polite words too much, and her face has shown impatience.

Wu Qingya ignored her and glanced at Ge Wushuang to hand over the sovereignty to him to speak more.

This is the country of women, although it is now Nalan Tianyou who has ascended the throne as the emperor, but the foundation and power for hundreds of years are all held by women, and now women are still officials, and the city lords of each city should also be held by women.

But the more this is the case, she cares more about Song Wushuang's feelings. At the same time, thinking of the question of the female honor, Wu Qingya once again floated with a thoughtful gaze from Ning Yu, the son of the city lord, who had been silent since entering the door.

Ge Wushuang smiled back at her, he knew well about her little thoughts, and at the same time felt warm in his heart. It's just that Yaya thinks about it a lot, so he doesn't have so much caution and childishness, but he is still happy that she cares about him.

"That's right, I heard that there were many boys in the vicinity who disappeared for no reason, but just now at the gate of the city, I heard that there was no such thing in Ningcheng, and I came here for the city lord's governance, and I wanted to see the city lord's face. Now that the topic has reached this point, there is no need to do Tai Chi anymore, but Ge Wushuang's words are mixed true.

Wu Qingya was keenly aware that when Wushuang said that he had heard that a boy had disappeared all the way, although Ning Yu, who had been expressionless, still lowered his eyebrows and made a submissive and quiet introverted appearance, he gently moved the corners of his mouth.

Wu Qingya's eyebrows twitched slightly, he seemed to have an objection to what Song Wushuang said!What about Weishenme?

"Haha~ Your guest has won the award! It's not that it's well governed, but the buildings in Ningcheng are more conducive to defense. In addition, since this is a gateway city, our guards are more strict in guarding and checking. When she said this, her eyes drifted to the son who was sitting next to her, but there was nothing wrong with it.

But it is precisely because of this subtle move that Wu Qingya seems to have caught some clues in her heart, but she can't make any conclusions.

"But what makes us wonder is: how does the city lord know that we will come to your mansion instead of leaving directly?"

Ning Keran and Ning Yu were slightly stunned, and quickly glanced at each other, this housekeeper is really, how can he reveal such important information.

Suddenly, Ning Keran's face was already a little embarrassed, you must know that she still pretended not to know anything and asked the other party Weishenme to come to the City Lord's Mansion!

"Oops~ It made a few people laugh!" However, this city lord is obviously not in vain, and he has already come from the color of embarrassment in an instant.

"Then I won't say anything dark!" Ning Keran glanced at his son and said, "A few of you just said that you have heard about the strange incident of the boy's disappearance all the way here, in fact, when you just arrived at the city gate, you have already attracted the attention of Yu'er, who was patrolling the city wall in the distance at that time, and because of the unfamiliar face, Yu'er paid more attention. ”

Several people nodded in understanding, which was reasonable.

Speaking of this, the son of the city lord named Ning Yu finally raised his head and looked directly at a few people, because he had only a quick glance before and couldn't see his appearance clearly, but at this time he could already see clearly, not to mention handsome and brilliant, but it was also a very comfortable feeling of being white and pure.

Presumably, except for Xiao Xue, the other three people all noticed that under his white scholarly appearance, there was a strong and unyielding color in his dark eyes.

On the city wall in the distance?No wonder a few people didn't feel that someone was observing them at the time, thinking that the distance was relatively far away, but how did he know about such a long distance?

Ning Keran naturally knew the doubts of several people, and continued to explain, "Although my son is not easy to be noticed by several people from a distance, because he has something he has made himself, he can look at it from a distance within a certain range, and he can analyze the content of several people's words according to the lip movements of several people. ”

Obviously, the inadvertent look on the face of the Ning City Lord when he said this was very proud of his son.

Wu Qingya suddenly realized, it turned out that this man actually knew lip language, but she was more interested in the thing she created herself, looking at it from a distance, this couldn't help but remind her of a modern item, "It turns out that Yu Gongzi understands lip language, what a talent!"

Lip language? is an apt word.

When hearing Wu Qingya praise herself as a talent, Ning Yu did not disdain it, but a trace of joy flashed in her eyes, but she quickly disappeared.

"Why doesn't Young Master Yu speak?" Hearing the conversation of several people and Wu Qingya's appreciation of Ning Yu, Xiaoxue looked at Ning Yu curiously. But at this time, she was a little dissatisfied, this boy was really strange, from the moment he entered the door to the present, he never spoke except for nodding and saying hello, and even when the young lady praised him now, he didn't even reply, it was really rude.

"Xiaoxue must not be rude!" Wu Qingya naturally knew that Xiaoxue was unhappy that the other party was rude to her, but she still reprimanded her.

Xiaoxue's aggrieved mouth didn't say anything anymore.

"It's not to blame this girl, it's just..."The City Lord Ning was about to explain, when the leader who had left before suddenly walked in.

"City Lord, my subordinates have something to report!"

I saw him walk up to the Ning City Lord and whisper a few words, and then quickly retreated.

City Lord Ning was slightly stunned when he heard the news, and then quickly returned to normal, but when he looked at a few people again, there were some doubts and speculations in his eyes.

"Ah, I'm sorry everyone, where did you just go!" Ning Keran found a very haode connection for herself and then continued to herself, "Ah, by the way, this can't be blamed on the girl, it's normal for this girl to have doubts, it's just my son, alas..."
