Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Lingzhou Chapter 172 Wu Bai Zhou Li

Wangchuan City is not destined to be quiet tonight, and there is only one reason, that is, Xu Yan successfully entered this huge city alive.

In a luxurious mansion, a middle-aged man, after hearing the exact news, angrily smashed a very precious celadon teacup from Longquan kiln in his hand.

"How is this possible!"

The middle-aged man roared at the subordinate who came to report the news, and then he shouted: "This is simply impossible! Father, he was already a sword cultivator in the Upper Three Realms decades ago, how could he break his halberd in the hands of a young man who is less than twenty years old? Then check for me, you who eat dry food, you must find out this matter clearly for me, there must be something strange about this matter!"

This is Yan Fu's eldest son, who is also Yan Ziyi's biological father, and the middle-aged man who was stabbed to death by Aunt Yin's handsome brother, who was stabbed to death by Aunt Yin's sword, was full of resentment in his heart at the moment, but at the same time he also had a trace of despair.

Because if his father really had an accident outside, it would definitely be a fatal blow to him, and even the entire Yan family.

The subordinates who have been slaves in the Yan family for more than ten years heard the other party say this, and they were still respectful on the surface, but in fact, they had already retreated in their hearts.

Looking at his subordinates, after being ordered to withdraw from the main hall, Yan Tong, who is now the last backbone of the entire family, dared to show his dejection, he sat on the Taishi chair behind him, and his hand that was serving tea couldn't help but tremble.

"No, I can't just sit here like this, since that Xu Yan has now appeared in the county town unharmed, this is also very unfavorable news for Lord Su, so I will visit Su Tang here and let him capture this person. ”

Yan Tong thought carefully in his heart, then got up and ordered his subordinates to prepare a carriage for him, and then drove quickly towards the Xingguan Mansion in Xicheng District.

However, when he got out of the carriage and was about to step into the mansion, he was intercepted by the boy named Chunzhi, and said: "The Yan family, please stay, my second master said, he still has political affairs to deal with tonight, so he can't get out of the way, if you have anything, you might as well come back tomorrow." ”

Yan Tong heard that the other party refused to meet him, he was both angry and resentful, although he did not have the mature overall situation of his father, but in the end he had lived for more than forty years, how could he not understand that the other party had expected him to take the initiative to come to the door in advance, and then made a response in advance.

So, in anger, Yan Tong immediately said coldly to Chunzhi: "What does Master Su mean by this, is it because you want to break off the relationship with my Yan family?"

When Chunzhi heard the other party say this, his immature face suddenly turned cold, but in fact, in his heart, he couldn't help but start secretly admiring his second master, who could predict this Yan family master so accurately, not only calculated that he would visit in person tonight, but also predicted that he would say the current sentence.

Chunzhi followed Su Tang's words to him in advance, and learned Su Tang's tone and replied to Yan Tong: "The Yan family is young, my second master wants me to tell you, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense, in addition, if you don't want to take over the courage of your family just now, it will become a situation where the family is ruined, and you have to put away those crooked brains as soon as possible, so as not to end up in the end, otherwise even the second master of my family will not be able to protect you." ”

After saying this, without Yan Tong saying anything more, Chunzhi didn't stop, turned around and walked back to the mansion directly, leaving only two guards with expressionless faces, standing on both sides of the gate like door gods, staring at Yan Tong under the door.

Yan Tong saw that the other party had already anticipated his actions, and his heart couldn't help but be desolate, until this moment, he really realized why his father always showed a hatred for him in normal times, it turned out that when the crisis was really coming, he was helpless at all.

......

The Li family's mansion in Wangchuan City.

There was a dignified woman who went to the courtyard of her eldest son, and since her children had returned from the mountains, the second son had been wandering around the market all day long, during which he had made many friends with foxes and dogs, and they were drunk with money, drunk and dreaming of death.

Her eldest son, on the other hand, became even more silent than when he was a child.

For most of the time, the woman could only watch the child shut herself up in the courtyard, not communicating with the outside world, and not daring to disturb him, for she knew how much pain he was in the latter's heart, but just now, after she had received a message from her servant, she had to come and talk to him on her own initiative.

The middle-aged woman's face was sad, and she came to the eldest son's study, and saw that the other party was in a daze, looking like a master of six gods, and her heart couldn't help but become more painful.

At this moment, the young man in the study still looked at the plane tree outside the window, which did not even have a leaf left, and also looked at the white snow that kept falling from the air outside. He didn't look back and said, "Mother can just say anything you want, I'm listening." ”

When the woman heard this, she said in a very sad tone, "Your father is ...... He may have died. ”

Hearing his mother say this, the young man didn't mean to turn his head, but in his misty eyes, there was finally a trace of sadness other than numbness.

He pondered for a long time before he asked, "Why didn't Mother stop him before?"

The woman replied, "Your father is so old-fashioned that he can't persuade him in his anger, and besides, he has smuggled away behind my back." ”

As she spoke, the woman took a few more steps forward, and walked behind her eldest son, and she took out a letter from her cuff and put it on the other party's table before she continued: "Your father has always been very thoughtful in his work, so he actually left me a letter before leaving home. ”

Instead of picking up the letter on the table, the young man turned to look at his mother.

His eyes were so red that they were already covered with bloodshots, and he asked bitterly, "Then why did you give me the letter now?"

The woman burst into tears and replied, "Because this is what your father asked in his letter, and if it is not really such a moment, I should not tell you." ”

......

Wu Family Mansion.

In Wu Hao's private courtyard, plus himself, ten young men were gathering at this moment, all of them were about the same age as him, and they were already close to thirty.

There was no doubt that they were none other than the ten martial cultivators sent out by the Chenyang Sect to the dynasty to participate in the grand event.

Wu Hao's treatment of them was completely different from that of Yan Ziyi, because these people in front of him were not much different from him in terms of strength, and they were also the core of the core among the younger generation in the Chenyang Sect.

The head of the Wu family also came to this courtyard in person at this moment, and his purpose was naturally to meet with these outstanding descendants, and by the way, to give them a few words of encouragement before they set off. But just about half an hour after he came here, someone from the family came to his ear and brought him not good news.

When the head of the Wu family heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and then hurriedly left the small courtyard and returned to the main hall.

A moment later, his son came to see him under a summons, but without waiting for the latter to say anything, he went straight to the point and said, "I heard that the disciple of the Lotus Sect who made Hao'er suffer a small loss before entered the city in the evening today, what do you think about this?"

After hearing this, the man who had great hopes of taking over the burden of the family thought for a moment before replying: "This person can go all the way north to the present, and he has always been safe and sound, I think there must be something strange in it, besides, more than a month ago, Li Yang and Yan Fu went out of the city one after another, and their purpose was nothing more than to intercept and kill him in advance, so as not to prevent him from entering the city, but the two of them have not returned so far, so it seems that they must never come back." ”

The head of the Wu family said in a calm tone: "I know what you said, I mean, if you sit in my position now, how should you think of that young man's entry into the city." ”

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment before he replied, "I will choose to wait and see what happens, and not touch him." ”

When the head of the Wu family heard this answer, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, we really can't touch him, but presumably after Yan Tong learned that his father couldn't come back, he would definitely go to Su Tang again to discuss this matter, but I don't know what kind of attitude Su Tang would have, after all, that young man killed a military commander when he first entered the city." ”

The middle-aged man replied: "A mere military commander, the child thinks that Su Tang should not touch that young man." ”

"Oh, tell me, why is that?"

"If the child is not mistaken, Su Tang should be the last half a month away from stepping down, how can he not have any extraneous branches at this juncture, the most important thing is that he is still a person in the court, and as a disciple of Zhao Bailian, he still has to protect him. ”

"Yes, you see that the problem is indeed more mature than before, originally I was worried that you would go to him for trouble because of the little trouble between the young man and our Wu family, it seems that my father is looking down on you. ”

"How dare a child do that? ”

......

In the Bai family's mansion.

The head of the Bai family is also discussing with his son about Xu Yan, but compared to those people's fear and eyesight, their family is much easier.

The head of the Bai family opened his mouth and said: "Since he has also entered the city smoothly, then you will personally take the time to go over and say hello to him tomorrow, after all, on the next road, Bing'er still has to go on the road with them, no matter what happened before, Bing'er is the granddaughter surnamed Zhao after all, and since this young man is Zhao Bailian's personal disciple, he must not be worried about the matter on the spring hunt." ”

When the man who was Bai Haijing's elder brother heard this, he replied with a respectful expression: "Yes, father, I will talk to that young man properly." ”
