Chapter 432: Cramped and uneasy
A kind of helpless love hit his heart, Zhang Hao was silent for a moment, and suddenly looked up at Qingluan: "Actually, I already have someone I like!"
But hearing this, Qingluan's expression became a little strange, and a trace of abruptness flashed in his sad eyes, and then he shook his head with a smile and said, "You misunderstood, my father didn't plan to marry me to you!"
No matter how thick-skinned Zhang Hao was, he instantly turned red at this moment, and hurriedly coughed to hide the embarrassment in his heart, and asked, "Then why are you ......?"
"It's Twilight!"
Before he could finish speaking, Qingluan said faintly: "Actually, my father knows in his heart that even if he really marries me to you, it will not necessarily make you feel entangled, so he chose Liu Dui!"
Hearing her say this, Zhang Hao immediately understood the mind of the Great Yuan Lord.
The reason why he didn't choose to marry Qingluan Xu to himself was that he was afraid that a cultivator like himself would not look down on his daughter, and the other reason was also for the sake of the stability of the Great Yuan Kingdom in the future.
Once the marriage with the Liu family is successful, then neither he nor the Liu family is embarrassed to do anything to the throne, this plan can be described as killing two birds with one stone, but the price is ......
"What do you think, do you really plan to marry Liu Dui?"
At this moment, Zhang Hao was even more disgusted with the Great Yuan Lord, but Qingluan was a victim after all, even if he didn't understand human feelings, he wouldn't be embarrassed in person, he pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Liu Dui agreed?"
Hearing this, Qingluan shook his head and sighed faintly: "This is just my father's wishful thinking, Liu Dui did not agree, and this matter was still kept in the dark before today, if I hadn't heard Liu Dui say this with my own ears, I'm afraid I wouldn't have dreamed that I had unknowingly made a lifelong decision!"
"Hey, your father is such a good trick!"
Seeing this, Zhang Hao smiled coldly, then put his hand on the table next to him, and his fingers tapped rhythmically.
Qingluan raised his eyes to look at him, but lowered his head again, and said softly: "Everyone envies me, but who knows my sadness and helplessness!"
Whether it is the royal family or those big families, for the sake of profit, sometimes they seem extremely ruthless.
But they are also helpless about this kind of thing, just like Qingluan now, knowing that she is being used as a bargaining chip, but she doesn't even have the courage to resist.
Whether Zhang Hao reminded her intentionally or unintentionally, she never said her inner thoughts from beginning to end. Perhaps this girl has already resigned herself to her fate.
"Go back and sue him, I don't want to pursue this matter, but if he still doesn't know each other one day, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After tapping his fingers on the table for a moment, Zhang Hao's cold voice suddenly sounded: "In addition, you and Liu Dui's affairs will be handled by yourself, and I will not interfere!"
When he said this, he was also relieved.
This time I came to the imperial capital, in fact, to settle accounts with Song Wufeng.
All along, Zhang Hao has maintained his own bottom line, as long as he doesn't provoke him, nothing has anything to do with him.
But Song Wufeng went against him again and again, and deliberately leaked the relationship between Zheng Yun and others and him.
From the moment he learned the news, he made up his mind to get rid of this person, but he didn't expect that after coming to the imperial capital, a series of things happened one after another, many of which exceeded his original expectations.
Whether it was the Song family, Wang Yuan, or the hell demon worm in his career, he didn't expect this.
After these things, the killing intent in his heart faded a lot. Otherwise, even if it is for the sake of Liu Dui and Qingluan's face, the Great Yuan Lord will not continue to sit firmly on the throne.
"Thank you!"
Qingluan did not doubt the promise made by Zhang Hao, with the other party's current cultivation, he could completely destroy the entire royal family.
It's just that the latter sentence made her say thank you from the bottom of her heart, Zhang Hao's meaning is already very clear, no matter whether she marries Liu Du or not, this matter will not be pursued again!
In this way, the initiative is in her hands.
It's just that Qingluan understands in her heart that even if Zhang Hao no longer pursues this matter, she may not be able to change her marriage.
"Go and call Twilight in!"
Hearing her thanks, Zhang Hao's heart became more and more unhappy, and this feeling of being afraid of him like a tiger made him feel very uncomfortable, as if he had lost something.
Qingluan got up and bowed to him slightly, and then slowly exited the room, judging from the cautious appearance in it, for fear of provoking his dissatisfaction.
When Zhang Hao saw this scene, he felt irritable in his heart, and a touch of blood red quietly appeared in his pupils. But the blood red quickly receded, and even he didn't notice it.
After Qingluan withdrew, within a moment, Liu Dui's hurried footsteps sounded outside, and he didn't stop until he reached the door of the room.
Standing outside, he seemed to hesitate, and then Liu Du immediately raised his legs and walked in.
When Zhang Hao saw the solemn expression on the other party's face, he sighed slightly.
Even Liu Dui, who has always been unruly and arrogant, now sees that he has to be cautious, and the friendship in the past seems to have faded a lot with the increase of his strength.
"Hey, I'm looking for you too!"
Liu Du stood there slightly cramped, the smile on his face looking somewhat stiff, but he still tried to talk to Zhang Hao in the same tone as before.
Maybe in his heart, he also wants to get back the brotherhood of the past.
"You should know why I only saw you alone when I came back, right?"
Zhang Hao didn't ask him what he was looking for, but suddenly asked in an indifferent tone. After hearing this, Liu Dui's heart instantly became cold, and he sighed secretly, the time has come after all!
However, he still maintained that stiff smile on his face, and said, "Actually, my grandfather ...... last night."
"What happens to him has nothing to do with me!"
However, Zhang Hao interrupted him coldly, then stood up, walked to Liu Dui's side, looked directly at him, and said, "What I value is your friend, if even you are so afraid of me, then what am I doing staying here?"
Hearing this, Liu Du realized that he had misunderstood him, the stiff feeling on his face was swept away, his chest straightened, and he patted Zhang Hao's shoulder with his hand with a big grin, and said, "I said it earlier, you scared Young Master Ben to death!"
"Huh!"
Seeing that Liu Du had regained his unrestrained personality in the past, Zhang Hao also smiled and shook his head, then sat down with the two of them and asked, "If you have anything to do with me, just say it, Lao Tzu still needs to rest!"
Liu Du was stunned by this sentence, and then burst out laughing. In his heart, he always thought that the current Zhang Hao was different from the past, but at this moment, when he heard that the other party was still full of Lao Tzu's foul words, he couldn't help but let go of the last trace of restraint.
After laughing for a while, Liu Du nodded and said, "What happened last night has been clarified, it was Liu Fei from the West Courtyard who leaked the news, I have asked Uncle Mu to take him down, and I will bring him in a while!"
"Sure enough, it's him!" Zhang Hao sneered, shook his head and said, "You can look at this matter, he is a member of your Liu family after all!"
In fact, as early as last night, when he saw Liu Fei and Elder Minglong together, he already understood it in his heart. It's just that I didn't have time to care about these little things at that time, and now I heard Liu Du say this with my own ears, which confirmed my guess.
However, after escaping death last night, he really didn't have any interest in revenge for Liu Fei, so he waved his hand casually and sent this time to Liu Dui.
And Liu Du opened her mouth to say something, but in the end, she sighed softly and asked, "Then what did you just ask me for?"
"It's nothing, I just want to tell you, I'll leave tomorrow!"
Zhang Hao originally wanted to ask about the royal family's proposal to marry Liu Duan, but he didn't say it when the words came to his lips, and he shook his head with a smile in his heart.
Since he decided not to take revenge on the royal family, this matter has nothing to do with him, and as for how Liu Dui decides, it is not for him to intervene.
"Tomorrow, so anxious?" Liu Du didn't doubt it, but sighed reluctantly, "Can't you stay longer?"
"Why do I listen to this sentence so strangely?" but Zhang Hao grinned at the corner of his mouth and said with a smile.
At this time, Liu Du also realized that what he said was really easy to misunderstand, and hurriedly laughed dryly: "You should be in a hurry to meet someone, right?"
He originally wanted to hide the embarrassment in his heart, but he didn't expect it to really hit Zhang Hao's mind.
His face turned slightly red, and Zhang Hao immediately laughed dryly and stopped answering. Seeing this, a hint of banter suddenly flashed in Liu Dui's eyes, and he smiled: "Tell me, which young lady can make you disregard brotherhood so much and hurry to see her?"
"What miss, where do you think you have gone!"
Zhang Hao shook his head in denial with an embarrassed expression, but there was a touch of affection in his eyes.
Seeing his appearance, Liu Du confirmed his guess even more, smiled, and then squeezed his eyebrows and said: "What is there to hide, tell me who it is, I don't know it, you name it, brother can help you check it!"
"Ahem...... This one...... Be...... Her name is Zheng Yun!"
Zhang Hao didn't want to say it at first, but Liu Du pursed his lips disdainfully. Seeing this, he had no choice but to say his heart, but his face became more and more hot.
Zheng Yun can be said to be the first girl who made him tempted, in the past two years, he has been wandering outside, and he has also met many women whose appearance far exceeds Zheng Yun.
Whether it is the charming Demon Moon, or the frosty Tianyue, or Lin Bing, every appearance of these girls is not under Zheng Yun.
But Zhang Hao never forgot the elegant and warm atmosphere she brought to herself.
"Zheng Yun?"
A trace of doubt flashed on Liu Dui's face, and she thought about it for more than ten minutes before she slapped her forehead suddenly: "The girl who is looking for you everywhere?"
As early as a few months ago, Zheng Yun traveled almost half of the country in order to find Zhang Hao, and finally met Liu Du in the imperial capital, and only then did he inquire about Zhang Hao.
Later, he followed his footsteps and walked tens of thousands of miles alone before meeting him in the Demon Hunting Mountains. This made Zhang Hao very moved in his heart, and he also made up his mind at that time to stay with this girl for the rest of his life.
Seeing that Liu Du thought about it, Zhang Hao nodded slightly, and then said a little embarrassed: "I plan to propose to her when I go back this time!"
"I see, hehe, I didn't expect it!"
The playful expression on Liu Dui's face became more and more intense, and she looked him up and down with a smile on her face, and only shook her head after a moment.
"What didn't you expect?"
However, Zhang Hao looked quite nervous at the moment, and in that appearance, where was there the momentum that a strong man in the Void Underworld Period should have, just like a boy who had just fallen in love, and was cramped and uneasy when pursuing the girl he liked.
Liu Du smiled, didn't explain, but stood up and said: "I must drink this cup of wine brother, hehe, if I don't get you drunk when the time comes, I will never give up!"
After saying this, he didn't wait for Zhang Hao to agree, and ran out with a smoke.
Zhang Hao, who was sitting there, only heard a burst of hearty laughter from the courtyard. This laughter suddenly made the corners of his mouth twitch slightly, and then he snorted coldly and withdrew his gaze.
That night, Liu's Mansion was brightly lit, and after Liu Dui went out, he didn't go to find Liu Kaiyuan, but turned around and went straight to Mu Donghai's room.
The two muttered in the room for a while, and Liu Dui left immediately, and the next day, Liu Fei's body was found outside the city, but the strange thing was that the Liu family did not respond to it in the slightest.
Especially the West Courtyard, which is even more lifeless.
What Liu Fei did was beyond the limits of what the family could tolerate, and even the head of the Western Courtyard, Liu Kaikai, chose to remain silent about Liu Fei's death......
