Chapter 323: The Benefit of the Tongue (I)
Suddenly seeing Liu Dongquan here, Chen Ao couldn't be happy at all.
He and Liu Dongquan have an embarrassing relationship, and they are not even partners. Moreover, during this period of time, Chen Ao was disgusted that Liu Dongquan had too much appetite, and took advantage of his return to Beijing to restore his life, and stopped bribing him with all the money. This time, the relationship between the two is probably going to be discounted again.
Chen Ao knew that if Liu Dongquan still wanted to take advantage of him, he should quietly connect with him in advance, instead of suddenly appearing at this Hongmen banquet. Could it be that Liu Dongquan was also afraid of the power of the four major families and decided to abandon his pawn to protect the commander?
Chen Ao really didn't guess wrong. It turned out that the imperial court also heard that the Shaolin Temple would hold a martial arts conference, but they didn't know that this grand event was masterminded by the people of the four major families. Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng was worried about the recurrence of the Wulin Rebellion of the previous dynasty, so he hurriedly sent the people of the Imperial City Division to inquire about the news. This errand naturally fell on the head of Liu Dongquan, who was "able to do things".
Liu Dongquan arrived in the middle of the night yesterday. As soon as he came, Nangong Jun's people also came to the door. Nangong Jun and Liu Dongquan had a secret conversation all night, and Liu Dongquan made up his mind that he couldn't let Chen Ao live, let alone let Chen Ao say that they had cooperated.
Chen Aomu was stunned for a long time and did not come back to his senses. Father-in-law Liang had already stood up to greet him, and said with a smile: "Lord Liu, the old man heard that the lord is doing a good job and has been promoted to the position of commander, congratulations!"
Liu Dongquan replied to him with the gift of a military attaché: "Thank you Father-in-law Liang!"
Chen Ao's heart sank, and he secretly thought that they still knew each other's identities, and they were obviously already in a gang. Liu Dongquan is strong in martial arts, this one is not calculated, I'm afraid it's going to be bad!
He quietly looked at Zhao Ling. Zhao Ling was also nervous. Both sighed at the same time, both trying to reassure each other, and smiled at the same time.
But since both of them have understood each other's intentions, this comforting smile has lost its meaning and turned into a bitter smile.
Several people had already sat down, and Chen Ao saw that there was only one main seat left, obviously waiting for Nangong Jun. Just thinking about it, I heard Nangong Jun's hearty laughter sounding from outside the door. Qiao Jiulang walked away to meet the laughter, and soon welcomed Nangong Jun in.
Nangong Jun was full of spring breeze and glanced at Zhao Ling. Several people in the room hurriedly got up to greet each other, although Chen Ao was very reluctant, but now he was still a guest, so he had to put on makeup to welcome him.
Nangong Jun walked to the main seat and motioned for everyone to sit down. He opened his mouth and said with a smile: "You are all good friends here, today I have prepared a few glasses of turbid wine to catch up with you! Hahaha......"
Chen Ao sneered in a low voice: "The monk drinks in the temple, I don't know what to be happy about!"
Although his voice was small, Nangong Jun's internal strength was profound, and he still heard it. He smiled slightly and said, "Is Lord Chen asking me why I'm so happy?" Hehe, I didn't expect to come to Shaolin Temple for a tour, and I would have the opportunity to find incense and explore flowers. Not only do you have to drink, but you also have to take a beautiful concubine, and the mandarin ducks sleep together!
When Chen Ao heard this, his heart sank. What did Nangong Jun's words mean? Come to this place to take a concubine? What kind of concubine did you accept? Chen Ao immediately remembered Liang Xiaoya. Could it be that this Nangong Jun saw Liang Xiaoya, and when he saw it, he actually came up with this idea?
When Chen Ao thought of this, he suddenly became angry and glared at Nangong Jun. Nangong Jun just didn't know, waited for someone to serve the wine and food, raised the wine glass to greet Liang's father-in-law, but said in his mouth: "This beautiful concubine is not an outsider, it is Mr. Liang's dear pearl." Hehe, in the future, I and the two Liang Gongzi will be a family!"
Liang's father-in-law and the Liang brothers both raised their glasses and smiled, their eyes glancing at Chen Ao, and they were all waiting to see Chen Ao's angry and helpless appearance.
It's the pleasure of their prey. In the eyes of these people, as soon as Chen Ao stepped into this small courtyard, he was already a dead corpse. Wouldn't it be too boring if you couldn't tease him more before he died?
And Nangong Jun said that he wanted to accept Liang Xiaoya as a concubine, but it was not groundless. In the early hours of this morning, Liang Xingzhi sent Liang Xiaoya up the mountain, and Nangong Jun went to see this girl and was immediately attracted by her beauty. However, there are countless beautiful concubines in his family, and he has seen a lot of beauties, so that he was not carried away by Liang Xiaoya's appearance. Liang Xiaoya is reckless in the rivers and lakes, and this identity is not worthy of entering the door of Nangong's house. If this girl gets it back, it's better to be a beautiful maid who serves people. When you need to vent your lust and entertain guests, this person is the best choice.
Nangong Jun was used to being arrogant, and told his thoughts to Liang's father-in-law as they were. These three surnamed Liang are people with cold nature. In addition, Liang Xiaoya has a true affection for Chen Ao, and the three Liang family have long denied her. After listening to Nangong Jun's words, not only was he not angry, but he felt that Liang Xiaoya deserved such a result.
Nangong Jun drank wine, his eyes glanced at Zhao Ling from time to time, imagining that he and Zhao Ling and Liang Xiaoya were sleeping together tonight, killing two birds with one stone, and the smile in his eyes took on a bit of obscenity.
Chen Ao and Nangong Jun are both men, and they are both men with a high appreciation for beautiful women, how can they not see what Nangong Jun's eyes mean? He only felt a rush of blood rushing to the top of his head, and thought to himself, Liang Xiaoya and Zhao Ling are both good friends of mine, and they really don't say anything to me. Even if I can't have any relationship with them, I can't let you insult them at will!
Thinking so, he couldn't help but slam the wine glass in his hand to the ground. The porcelain cup shattered, startling Zhao Ling. Zhao Ling knew that Chen Ao was impulsive, and he was afraid that he would do something reckless, so he was busy pulling Chen Ao's sleeve.
As for the other people, they had already expected this scene, and they looked at Chen Ao with a smile in their eyes, just waiting to see his jokes!
Chen Ao Huoran got up, but calmed down, thinking to himself, Lao Tzu can't be a hero. This little life, Lao Tzu must keep it, Zhao Ling and Liang Xiaoya, Lao Tzu must also protect it!
He made up his mind, looked around, saw the hateful old face of Father-in-law Liang, and sneered: "Father-in-law Liang, Xiaoya is your granddaughter. I didn't expect you to be generous!"
Liang's father-in-law naturally knew that he was talking about sending Liang Xiaoya to Nangong Jun as a concubine. Chen Ao's reaction had long been expected by them. Seeing that Chen Ao was anxious, Liang's father-in-law was naturally even more happy, touched his beardless chin, and said with a smile: "Master Chen, the old man has always been generous. If the helmsman kneels in front of the old man, respectfully call grandpa. The old man will definitely accept it generously!hahaha......"
The crowd burst into laughter. Chen Ao snorted coldly, thinking to himself, you are such an old eunuch, and you still want to have a full house of children and grandchildren?
He sneered: "Hehe, Liang's father-in-law, you want your grandson so much? It's not enough to accept two, and you don't care about your granddaughter." Isn't it because you're gone?"
Liang's father-in-law's face changed suddenly. He is a eunuch, and he is very sensitive to this kind of thing, no matter how good his cultivation is, no matter how deep the city is, he can't help but change color.
Chen Ao didn't wait for him to make a difficulty, he suddenly raised his head and laughed, laughing very arrogantly. While laughing, he thought in his heart, Lao Tzu laughed first so that your heart was furious, and you were jealous of Lao Tzu. Even if you know how to do it later, you have to be afraid!
His abnormal behavior really made Nangong Jun and the others a little confused. At this time, shouldn't Chen Ao be panicked and beg for mercy? Why do you make it seem like he is the leader here?
And Zhao Ling also secretly pinched a cold sweat, clenched his hands into fists under the table, ready to give a signal and order an attack!
