Chapter 457: Two Women Fight
Chapter 457
A woman like Pei Qianying is definitely not the kind of person who can bow her head easily, she came to find herself three times and twice, and she definitely has another purpose, such as this time.
"Isn't Master Luo going to invite me into the house to sit?"
Pei Qianying smiled at Luo Chen, showing natural familiarity, and said, before Luo Chen could open her mouth to invite, she had already raised her steps and jumped over Luo Chen's body and walked in the direction of the other courtyard.
Luo Chen frowned, dispelling the urge to throw her out, and then he wanted to see what tricks this woman was going to play today.
The Zhong Mansion is very large, very magnificent, the only deficiency is that it is a little deserted.
Some open places are overgrown with weeds, although Steward Wei will clean it up every day, but the huge mansion is difficult for Steward Wei to clean up alone, and over time, it will be left alone.
Pei Qianying walked in the front, looking preoccupied, the two of them walked one after the other, walking endlessly along a path paved with soft stones, and the weeds sticking to the dew wet their trouser legs.
Further on, is a lotus pond, at this time in the summer, the lotus flowers are in full bloom, the air is mixed with the slightest lotus fragrance, take a deep breath, refreshing people's spleen.
Luo Chen picked a lotus pod casually, he leaned on the stone bridge while eating lotus seeds, and looked at Pei Qianying with slanted eyes, along the way, the two of them were silent, Pei Qianying was not in a hurry, and Luo Chen didn't care.
Finally, it was Pei Qianying who couldn't help but take the lead in speaking: "Young Master Luo, the city guard garrison mansion has now been reclassified into the city lord's mansion.
Luo Gongzi, you have offended the merchant, so you don't worry about the merchant's settlement after the autumn?"
Luo Chen continued to peel the lotus pod in his hand, and said with a smile: "The lotus seeds are very good, do you want to have one too?"
"No need, Mr. Luo, you ......"
"It's not too early, it's time for breakfast, don't you want the Pei family to be together?"
Luo Chen threw the last lotus seed into his mouth, and then, he stood leaning on the stone bridge, smiling at Pei Qianying and revealing two rows of white teeth.
Accompanying this woman for nearly half an hour is enough, Pei Qianying's purpose for coming to him basically has a trace of speculation in his heart, I'm sorry, he can't control the internal affairs of the Pei family, and he doesn't want to care.
How deep is the water in Licheng, he is still in the temptation, it is better to be quiet and not to move, he still hasn't figured out what is going on with the Iron Soul Order, and he is worried about it, but there is no extra leisure to waste on such a trivial matter, trouble.
The internal struggle within the Pei family is by no means something that can be solved with a fist, which is also the main reason why he has repeatedly shirked it.
Luo Chen's expression was very tactful, he believed that with the cleverness of this Pei family master, it should be easy to understand his attitude, but what made him speechless was that this woman's kung fu pretending to be stupid was amazing.
Pei Qianying was angry in her heart, Luo Chen's answer to the question almost ignited the small universe in her heart, at this moment she really hated to pick up a brick from the ground, and then slapped it on Luo Chen's face, it was so annoying, this little bastard, damn it, endure it!
"Okay, since Luo Gongzi invited sincerely, then Qianying will bother today. ”
Luo Chen was speechless, his own words were all said to this, according to his previous understanding of her, she should have thrown her sleeves and left, what kind of evil wind blew this morning, so evil.
On the dining table in the living room, the atmosphere was a little depressing, Steward Wei shook his head and drank tea alone with a plate of peanuts, and the circle of young people, the old guy himself didn't go to join in the fun.
There are two bowls of porridge and a basket of drawer buns on the table of the Eight Immortals, and the bowls and chopsticks are in pairs, and there is no third pair.
"I'm really sorry about this, the head of the Pei family didn't say hello in advance, I knew that I would have added an extra pair of chopsticks, do you need to add another pair of chopsticks?"
Shen Ke broke the embarrassment when he spoke, and his tone sounded polite, but in fact, he was very targeted.
Luo Chen didn't like Pei Qianying for various reasons, but Shen Ke's dislike was much simpler, it was completely out of one woman's defensiveness and caution against another woman.
Therefore, when the two women met, invisibly, the war had already begun to spread.
Pei Qianying has controlled the Pei family for so many years, and has developed the momentum of a unique superior, and ordinary women, in front of her, will really not be able to stand it.
Who is Shen Ke, and what kind of big scene has she not seen after being the emperor? Although Pei Qianying's momentum is not ordinary, in Shen Ke's opinion. It's just the same thing, it's not worth mentioning.
"Don't bother, this bowl is fine, thank you. ”
Facing Shen Ke's dismount, Pei Qianying behaved very naturally, with a smile, she pulled the bowl of porridge in front of Luo Chen, and took a sip with provocation.
"You!"
Shen Ke was angry and stood up from his seat, Luo Chen shook his head at her, Shen Ke sat down with his silver teeth, and heard Luo Chen say, "Master Pei, can you still say it?"
"Well, it's okay, it's just that although the lotus seeds are good, if you put too much, it will inevitably affect the aroma of the lotus seeds themselves, and the porridge should not be too bad, so it will be a little sticky to drink, and the lotus rice can be medium-cooked. ”
Pei Qianying opened his mouth to comment, Shen Ke's little face turned white with anger, seeing this, Luo Chen secretly said that it was not good, and quickly changed the topic, Shen Ke went to bring Luo Chen a bowl of porridge again, and when he came back, the atmosphere was even more stiff.
After breakfast, Shen Ke cleaned up the table, I don't know if this little girl did it on purpose, when she was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Pei Qianying's tableware fell on the floor tiles with a bang, and the bowl shattered to the ground.
Shen Ke turned his head and walked out of the living room, making a nasal sound, Luo Chen shook his head with a wry smile, Pei Qianying looked at Shen Ke's back, and smiled at Luo Chen: "What a big vinegar smell." ”
Luo Chen was a little embarrassed, and said, "Master Pei, I have also visited this mansion and eaten breakfast, tell me the purpose of your visit this time." ”
If it goes on like this, he is really worried that the two girls will suddenly pinch each other, so he doesn't plan to beat around the bush anymore and get straight to the point.
"Luo Gongzi doesn't plan to continue to go down with me?" Pei Qianying straightened his posture, first glanced at Luo Chen with a variety of amorous feelings, and then said with a straight face: "The city guard garrison military mansion is under the jurisdiction of the city lord's mansion, although the two iron armies have not been integrated together for the time being, but the merchants who have mastered the two iron armies have further consolidated their position in Licheng.
Luo Gongzi once offended the merchants, so he didn't worry about the merchants' retaliation afterwards? Maybe Luo Gongzi thought that his destiny was extraordinary, and his strength was amazing and fearless, but after all, a person's strength was limited, how could he rely on his own strength to fight against the two iron armies of Licheng?"
Indeed, the two major iron armies in Licheng have a total of 8,000 people, once they are surrounded and suppressed, let alone the powerhouse of the eight-star Fighting Soul Master Realm, it is estimated that even a powerhouse of the nine-star realm does not dare to guarantee 100% that he will be able to break out of the encirclement unharmed.
Conceit is innate for geniuses, even Luo Chen is no exception, but although he is a little confident, he is not arrogant, thinking that he can fight a thousand, because this is simply unrealistic.
It is not impossible to fight an army alone with the strength of one person, but this requires the cultivation strength of the Soul King Realm, and it is obvious that Luo Chen does not have this qualification now.
"What does the Pei family master mean?" Luo Chen said with interest.
"Cooperation!" Pei Qianying said categorically.
"Cooperation? Shu Luo was stupid and didn't understand what the so-called cooperation in the Pei family's words meant. ”
Pei Qianying's words surprised Luo Chen, but he was soon relieved, the Pei family and the merchant have been grudging for a long time, maybe this time they also feel the crisis, right?
"Unite with the enemy!" Pei Qianying looked at Luo Chen and said seriously.
"Oh, unite the enemy, what kind of common enemy law? The merchant has the support of two iron armies, unless the major families in Licheng unite to have the strength to fight, you and I alone are undoubtedly hitting stones with eggs. ”
"Not necessarily. Pei Qianying smiled mysteriously and said: "Don't take that Shang Chunqiu too seriously, according to the news that my Pei family just got not long ago, there were some small mistakes in the handover of the city guard garrison, and nearly half of the original city guard commanders resigned, and now there is still chaos in the city guard garrison mansion, so there is no need to worry about it at all."
As for the three thousand black armor guards, it is even more complicated, on the surface, Shang Chunqiu is the highest leader of the black armor guards, but those who can really mobilize to do practical things are only four or five hundred people who are dead.
The rest of the black-armored guards, although they also cater to flattery on weekdays, are at most just doing superficial kung fu, and they don't really obey their commands.
Otherwise, these 3,000 black-armored guards alone would be enough for him to run rampant in Li City, without fear of anyone!
In addition, in the past two years, merchants have been rampant and domineering in Licheng, which has already made the major families dissatisfied. ”
"So, when you said about uniting the enemy, you didn't just mean you and me, but everyone else?"
Originally, he was still a little suspicious in his heart before, but now he has some sudden realization.
"That's right! Don't underestimate Li Cheng, the water here is deep, just a commercial clan that came from a transfer, if it weren't for the black armor army behind their backs, they could barely reach the level of a second-rate family in Li Cheng, and they would dare to call themselves the first family in Li Cheng? ”
