Chapter 36 (24)
If Shangguan Yaohua had a choice, he would never want to sit at the same table with Jiang Yanchen. But if it was really because of his temporary likes and dislikes, he missed the opportunity to find the whereabouts of Nangong Xue, wouldn't it be a pity?
Jiang Yanchen said: "Very good, Lord Pingzhuang, you give me orders, and all the hospitality to King Cheng will be the same as this seat and frost embers, and there can be no deviation." Whoever dares to be disrespectful to him will be severely punished. The owner of Pingzhuang responded a few times and said, "Lord Jiang, you can rest assured. I may not be able to handle the things on the side, but when it comes to paying attention to etiquette, among the four major families, my Ping clan is the first. You linger for a few more days, and I promise to make the three of you live comfortably......"
Jiang Yanchen said: "No need, it's over tonight, and the next seat will leave to go back." Don't disturb here, so as not to disturb the owner and Miss Yaxing. ”
The owner of the village was full of hope that he would delay for a long time, but since all aspects had been fully prepared, it was unexpected to hear him say that he would only stay for one day. This surprise was not a disguise, and he blurted out: "Why are you in such a hurry? Lord Jiang came from afar, and the journey was delayed, so I don't know how many days. Since we should live longer, we can also have a long talk and talk about martial arts, which is the great plan of the world. If you come in a hurry, and go away in a hurry, and let others hear about it in the future, will you laugh at me for not knowing how to entertain?"
Jiang Yanchen said: "The affairs of the sect are busy, and you can't leave, how can you be so comfortable? In just a few days, I don't know if the left protector can hold on to it, and don't stir up a few more civil strife." In fact, this time I came not to be a guest, but to see the work of your village. Now that everything is fine, this seat is relieved. ”
The owner of Pingzhuang was overjoyed, and his face was still pretending to be a little reluctant, and he sighed: "Ah, that's really a pity! I wanted to call the little girl...... Ask you a few more tips. ”
Jiang Yanchen said: "You are too humble. Miss Ping, who has a father like you, has been deeply educated and benefited from a wide range of benefits, which is beyond the reach of this seat. Although I haven't seen her kung fu exactly, I expect that Frost Ember can handle it, so it is better to let them learn from each other to prove their shortcomings. ”
The owner of Pingzhuang listened to him casually dial his daughter to a child, even though he knew that Ling Shuangyan was one of the best masters in the rivers and lakes, he was still unhappy. Ping Ruoyu was overjoyed, and she danced and talked to Xuanshuang.
Shangguan Yaohua said impatiently: "Hey, have you said enough? When will you meet you...... What kind of Hongmen banquet are you going to?" Ping Ruoyu smiled: "Yes, Daddy, my daughter is also hungry." Let me sit with Brother Yew Wah later, okay?"
As soon as the words fell, the Ming Ping Zhuang Ding rushed to the side and said, "Zhuang Master, the slaves are looking for you everywhere, it turns out that ...... You are here. The feast has been set up, and the newly returned sons of the family have also been taken care of, waiting outside, not knowing the owner and the distinguished guests...... When will you be there?"
Ping Ruoyu smiled: "You really came early as it was better to come at a good time, we are thinking about it." Eat the food while it's hot, Daddy, let's go?" The owner of Pingzhuang smiled, "You are the most anxious monkey! Shangguan Yaohua shouted: "Hey, Old Man Ping, give that ...... Mu Zixun, also leave a seat!"
The owner of Pingzhuang pondered slightly, if Nangong Xue sat too close to Jiang Yanchen, it would not be good. Besides, the atmosphere at the dinner table is casual, don't be careless, show your feet, and give up your previous efforts, which is really reluctant. Jiang Yanchen said: "You listen to him." This Mu Zixun is full of mysteries, and this seat is also very interested, and he is about to study it. The owner of Pingzhuang was helpless, so he had to grit his teeth and said: "Just follow the instructions of the adults." ”
When everyone came to the banquet hall, they saw that there was a very large square table in the center. A group of families who had been cleaned up stood aside, whispering to themselves, and when they saw a few people present, they immediately stopped talking, pretended not to say a word again, straightened their backs, and stood straight. Xuan Shuang snorted lightly: "Hmph, this kind of unruly rules, such as in this religion, how can it be allowed? A flat dealer stepped forward and said, "Please follow the column." ”
Nangong Xue's heart tightened, and she didn't know what flaws she had exposed, so that people could notice it? Could it be that before the meal, they had to make a special trip to judge themselves? The family members were also deeply impressed by this companion who called himself "Mu Zixun", and they all knew that he was the soft bone who coaxed the master to please him with his clever words. They were all expecting him to be unlucky, and when they heard the greeting, their reaction was much greater than his, and they all turned their heads together, and looked at her with their eyes.
In this situation, Nangong Xue could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb, so she had to walk out hard. looked ahead with a dodgy look, and when he saw Shangguan Yaohua, his eyes suddenly dilated, and his expression froze at the same time.
Previously, he was the same as himself, and he was imprisoned in a dungeon. He agreed to the transaction of the owner of the flat village and was willing to become a pawn for him, so he was allowed to be released. But how could he be here? Could it be that his identity was really exposed, but he was asked to identify it? His heart was pounding, and he didn't know what to do next.
Shangguan Yaohua's eyes were also firmly fixed on her face. Judging from his face alone, he couldn't find the slightest resemblance to Nangong Xue in the past. Only those eyes, those two eyes that were like weeping and complaining, like resentment, made him confirm his own speculation.
finally waited for her to stand still, immediately stepped forward quickly, grabbed her hand, felt that her palm was still so soft and tender, and her heart really fluttered. immediately suppressed this emotion and pulled her to the corner of the table. Nangong Xue passively held him, not daring to resist, let alone questioning out loud. So does he know or not his identity?
Jiang Yanchen seemed to appreciate a good show, holding his shoulders with his hands, watching him reveal his true feelings for a long time, and finally said: "Yo, Lord Cheng, so enthusiastic? Why, do you recognize him?" Nangong Xue felt like a hammer in her heart, and hurriedly shook Shangguan Yaohua's palm gently, signaling him not to show his flaws.
Shangguan Yaohua had a lot of questions, and he also knew that Nangong Xue must have a hard time, so he had to temporarily suppress it, and said lightly: "If you know, you know, can't you?" This king has known him since he was a child, and his father has already had business dealings with their Mu family, and the relationship is very good. If she were a woman, I would marry her. This sentence is to make up for Nangong Xue and Li Yijie's childhood sweethearts, and they can't get involved. Nangong Xue was shocked, and his heart was shocked by his last ambiguous words.
Jiang Yanchen smiled and said, "I see, that's really fate." Then several people also took their seats. Ping Ruoyu couldn't sit with Shangguan Yaohua, and she didn't want to lower her value, so she went to discuss with Nangong Xue in a low voice, so she had to sit opposite angrily.
There was a faint suspicion among the children of the family on the side, and said, "That Muzi follows ...... He is also a subordinate of the same status as us, how can he be at the same table as the master?" "Yes, why should he be treated so preferentially? Originally, he did not pass the test, and he was not even qualified to be a slave. "Is it just for him to talk nonsense to Lord Seven Evil Saints? I knew that Lord Jiang liked others to be disrespectful to him, and who wouldn't say anything about similar words?"
Xuan Shuang clapped the case and shouted: "What are you arguing about? It's turned the sky upside down? Young Master Mu questioned and questioned, and he had a reason! Moreover, he had commendable courage, dared to blaze a trail, and did what ordinary people did not dare to do, this is a middle meaning! I know that you were all rich sons in the past, and if you didn't use them first at the dinner table, no one dared to move your chopsticks first! To tell you the truth, I used to be the same as you, and it is no exaggeration to say that my status is more noble than that of each of you. However, when you go out, you are different from your own home, and you must abide by the rules of where you are a guest! If you are not satisfied, you are more qualified to sit at the table, and that is not a problem. What kind of ability are you talking and screaming nonsense from below? A bunch of people dare to be angry but dare not speak, dare to say and dare not do waste!"
After saying that, the crowd that had been noisy suddenly fell silent. But there are still people who are not convinced, thinking that Nangong Xue is all opportunistic, if she is qualified, she will definitely be more qualified. Sure enough, there was a person who swaggered forward, but when he reached the middle, he was stared at by dozens of eyes, and he couldn't help but stutter. Zhi Wu said: "Young Master Ling, that upper seat, I think I ...... There's nothing you can't sit still......"
Xuan Shuang said: "Okay, welcome! Come and sit!" said that he opened a chair for him very attentively and made a gesture of "please".
Shangguan Yaohua was secretly frightened, only to feel that Xuanshuang was a few scales higher than Ling Beile in the palace a year ago. He said softly: "It's really courageous...... Are you Xuanshuang?" Even Shangguan Yaohua was so surprised, Nangong Xue was naturally even more frightened, holding her breath and waiting for him to answer. Xuanshuang raised a finger, shook it gently, and smiled, "No, it's Frost Embers." 'Frost Ember Sky' Frost Ember, 'Heaven Shaking Earth' Blood Demon Demon, have you ever heard of it?"
At this time, another person recognized at a glance that Shangguan Yaohua was the person who had quarreled with everyone in the cell, why could he also change into a noble dress and sit on the table?
Jiang Yanchen swept his eyes and said, "You are not qualified to question him." When will you be the second village master of the world's first gangster, or after the cottage is down, you can still quickly make a comeback and be the little prince of the Qing Dynasty, and then your opinions will have a little more value for people to hear. ”
The questioner shouted: "Why, it turns out that he is Shangguan Yaohua? That famous wall-to-wall grass, staggering coward? What is the great thing about the status that he has gained by climbing one leg up and stepping down? Is it that only this kind of person can enter the eyes of the old man, the sect leader? This cowardly and incompetent despicable villain, who made a mess with a little effort, set fire to the Qingtianzhai temple in the first place, and cut himself off from the back, isn't it also this benevolent brother? Such a scourge is suspected of being killed too late! There are rumors that he will rebel when he meets the lord, and he has enough of the little prince, and he wants to take refuge under the wing of this sect, so you indulge him like this?"
Shangguan Yaohua's face was blue and white for a while, and the bone joints were held under the table very loudly. Nangong Xue pressed the back of his hand and signaled him not to act rashly. Shangguan Yaohua raised his eyelids, looking at Nangong Xue's face, and reluctantly suppressed the fire qi that reached his chest.
Jiang Yanchen said: "You shut up for me! I'm really impatient!" Before the others could see how he moved, they saw a beam of light shoot out, and through the man's forehead, blood spurted out wildly. The man shook a few times and slowly collapsed. Those who watched from the sidelines avoided the bloodstains on their clothes. Several family members stepped forward and carried the body down with expressionless faces.
Jiang Yanchen said coldly: "Listen to me, whoever dares to have a word of disrespect to His Royal Highness King Cheng is equivalent to insulting this seat, this is his previous experience." Do you remember?" everyone hung their heads under this intimidation, and only promised.
