The steward came to report the matter, Xia Lingling just glanced at Liu Yuan, and then said nothing, and had no intention of letting the latter leave.

After all, if it's really private, the kind of thing that can't be known to outsiders at all, after so many years of management, I know how to remind her.

So now it seems that there is still the possibility of accommodation, and it doesn't matter if you let your seniors know about it, and at the same time, you can show your trust in your seniors, and it will be helpful to wait until you have a request for someone in the future.

Moreover, the seniors have come so many times, and the person in charge knows what kind of status he has in his heart.

After the news came out, it was still a big deal, but there was nothing that could not be said to the seniors.

Xia Lingling frowned, stood up from her seat, and said suspiciously: "You heard clearly, are you sure it's a border city?"

"It's clear, the people who came have an old relationship with our house, and they won't deceive you recently Miss You've gained power. The steward thought of the news he had taken the initiative to inquire about earlier, and lowered his head slightly and said seriously.

"Okay, let's go, I'll go to the master's house. Xia Lingling glanced at Zhou Xiangwen and walked forward, and before going out, she didn't forget to tell Zhou Xiangwen something.

Now that Xia Xiang has also left this mansion, as long as she is not there, Zhou Xiangwen will have the final say on the affairs of the entire mansion.

In the few words of advice, in addition to some conventional things, the main thing is to say things related to the predecessors, of course, it is not explicitly said, it is very deep, with the tacit understanding between the two, Zhou Xiangwen can understand it.

Bang –

With a soft sound, the two people in the house watched the door of the house being closed, and the room became quiet again, Zhou Xiangwen looked at Liu Yuan with a smile and said, "Is there anything else going on with the seniors?"

"Oh, that's gone, I'm going to leave. Liu Yuan replied casually, obviously still immersed in the news of the accident in the border city just now.

Not surprisingly, there is another war in the border city, otherwise there could be something else.

However, in such a simple piece of news, Liu Yuan got several points to pay attention to.

First, there are often frictions and wars in border cities, which Xia Lingling took the initiative to mention before.

So now that someone has come to report, and the Xia family has named her to see her, it will be different from the previous situation.

Obviously, this time there was a real fight.

In this case, there are only two situations, either the Pingding King's side chooses to attack the city, or the Xia family's people are about to start planning to attack.

Regardless of which one is before and after, it means that this long-stalemate confrontation is about to evolve into a big war involving many forces.

"Okay, then send the seniors to Wen. Zhou Xiangwen stood up, smiled gently, and walked ahead.

In fact, as far as the relationship between the two is concerned, as well as each other, only their own secrets, there is no need to be so polite, but since it is in the Xia Mansion, Zhou Xiangwen still feels that he needs to pay attention to it.

When it was delivered to the door, Zhou Xiangwen stood in front of the threshold, waved his hand at the back of Liu Yuan who turned to leave, and did not continue to send it forward.

As for the subtext of what the young lady said, he Zhou Xiangwen could naturally understand it, and it was nothing more than asking him to seize the opportunity to implement the relationship, so that at the critical moment, Liu Da's shopkeeper could help them.

Note that it is to help them, not to help the Xia family.

However, Zhou Xiangwen didn't do it in private, just because it was unnecessary, and he still had hidden strength, Miss didn't know, maybe at a critical moment, she could surprise the latter.

......

Walking on the way back to the inn, Liu Yuan had a lot of things on his mind.

Now that he knows the news of Ziwei Mountain, and the war between the two sides is about to break out again, it will soon be time for him to make a move.

Missed this good opportunity, and next time he wanted to find the same opportunity, but it was not easy, and he would not give up.

Then the follow-up news still needs to be paid attention to, such as the movements of the Xia family, thinking that Chu Mu will appear on the most critical battlefield.

When Liu Yuan arrived at the inn, there was still a doubt in his heart that he couldn't figure out.

That is what is Chu Mu's purpose in doing this?

He is a cultivator, what good can he do to join this kind of power strife with him or Ziwei Mountain.

Liu Yuan didn't understand what happened on the Taiqing Mountain of the Taoist Sect at the beginning, only the third uncle knew that he was playing dumb riddles with Chu Mu.

It's a pity that now that the third uncle is gone, he can't come back to life to explain the truth of some things to him.

Thinking about it, Liu Yuan felt a little more sad in his heart, and he didn't even pay attention to the greeting of the innkeeper on the side.

"Is it news from Ziwei Mountain?" Before Liu Yuan came back to his senses, Pei Jiao took the initiative to ask.

"That's right, not only that, but even the border city of the Xia family has moved. Liu Yuan opened a teacup on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and said.

"What, are we going to do it too?" asked Dan Tangerine, stopping what he was doing.

"There's no hurry, just wait and see. Liu Yuan buried his head in drinking water, but as he spoke, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Suddenly raised his head, looked at Pei Jiao and then at Dantang, and frowned: "How do you know what I'm going to do?"

As soon as they heard this, the two glanced at each other, Dan Tang shook his head, walked from the bed to the table and sat down, and said, "Shopkeeper, sometimes don't think too stupid about me." ”

"Just because you care so much about the news of Ziwei Mountain, plus the matter in the Holy Hand Sect, others don't know where you are, don't I know either, as soon as you sum up with Sister Pei, you will naturally understand what you really want to do?"

As he spoke, Dan Tang smiled at Liu Yuan, revealing the dimples on his side.

Instead, Pei Jiao immediately took over the conversation and said, "What? Is there a grudge against Ziwei Mountain?"

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Liu Yuan was stunned, and did not answer immediately, but after thinking for a while, he told the two of them what happened on Taiqing Mountain in his own way.

When these things happened, the inn had not yet come to the two sisters, let alone Pei Jiao.

After listening to Liu Yuan's narration, the two expressed surprise at the same time.

But he didn't take it too seriously, especially Pei Jiao, who raised his hand and patted Liu Yuan's shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, we are fighting side by side with you." ”

Looking at the performance of the two, it seems that the opponent is not the big sect Ziwei Mountain, but some third-rate gangster.

While being moved, Liu Yuan also shook his head and said, "This is my own business, and I have no intention of implicating you." ”

But it was Liu Yuan's attitude that made Dan Tang a little angry: "You didn't abandon Dan Tang in the past, why do you want us to take the initiative to give up on you now?"

"This unrighteous name, let us take the initiative to bear it, don't you feel that you are wrong?"

"A few of us have long regarded ourselves as part of the inn, and none of us will be out of the way. After saying that, Dan Tang also slapped the table to show his resolute attitude.

Liu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and blinked stupidly and said, "But this is not the inn's business." ”

"The shopkeeper's business is the inn's business, and the inn's business is also our business. Dan Tangerine stared at each other, as if he felt that the shopkeeper was such a big person, why was he still so ignorant.

"Good, good. Liu Yuan, who has always been able to speak well, raised his hand and begged for mercy, which can be regarded as a confession.

Anyway, there will be a lot of variables in the future, and it's not clear how it will be, so let's talk about it later.

In the following time, Liu Yuan would go to the Xia Mansion every once in a while to ask for news, but as time went by, the people in the mansion became busier and busier.

There are some times, let alone Xia Lingling, even Zhou Xiangwen can't be seen.

From this, Liu Yuan can also speculate about what kind of situation it is, maybe the war has reached a further stage.

Even in the city, you can see a rough idea, from the restless mood of those knights in the rivers and lakes, as well as the faces of the common people, you can know that the situation is not very good.

And Liu Yuan, who often goes to the tea shop on the floor, also heard a lot of rumors.

Whether it's right or not, you can always know more.

So today, Liu Yuan walked out of the inn again and sat down in a tavern a block away.

As soon as Xiao Er asked Xiao Er to bring a pot of wine and a plate of side dishes, a man sat down directly in the opposite position, Liu Yuan looked up slightly, slightly surprised.

"Hehe, it's a coincidence, it's not a coincidence, we met again. Zhen Zhu sat opposite Liu Yuan and said with a smile: "But this time I took the initiative to come." ”

"Are you welcome?"

"Haha, it's an honor. Liu Yuan quickly regained his composure, he had never seen any strong winds and waves, and stretched out his hand to let Xiao Er fill a pot of hot wine.

When the two were eating and chatting, Zhen Zhu soon led the topic elsewhere and said, "With Brother Liu's auspicious words, Zhen successfully joined the Xia family. ”

"Good thing, come, have a drink. Liu Yuan raised his glass and said.

"It's a good thing, but it's not been a good time lately. Zhen Zhu frowned, leaned forward a little, deliberately lowered his voice, looked directly into Liu Yuan's eyes and said, "I always feel that someone is staring at me." ”

"Hehe, you say weird isn't weird. ”

There was a meaning in the other party's words, which was already overflowing, but Liu Yuan still pretended not to understand, and chuckled and said: "Oh? Yes, it's normal to think about it, it is estimated that the Xia family is investigating the newcomer, you also know, the family has to be cautious." ”

The topic was summarized here, and the two never mentioned this matter again, and after a while, after eating and drinking, Liu Yuan left the tavern first.

Along the way, he walked leisurely in the direction of the inn, but after walking out for a while, his ears moved, and he pretended not to find it, and walked forward, but turned into a remote alley.

When he reached the innermost, Liu Yuanfang paused, turned around, looked at the corner where he came, and said, "Come out, there is usually no one here, safe." ”
