It’s too dangerous to seize the direct descendant, so I choose to be the leader of the Demon Cult
Chapter 23 Zhao Ci is really too mean
Chapter 23 Zhao Ci is really too mean
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.
The past three days in Linge were quite peaceful. Apart from some rumors, nothing major happened.
As the sun set in the west, a large motorcade came from the west, attracting the attention of countless people.
It's not that the convoy is guarded by a large army or has tall horses.
Quite the opposite.
In this convoy, there are no oxen-drawn carts, but the iron wheels are rolling.
There were no military guards around. There was only a handsome young man at the front of the convoy, running fast in a wheelchair.
This scene.
Many people have never seen it in their lives.
Along the way, countless people stopped to watch and marveled.
I don’t know what this convoy is equipped with, but they actually dare to let a young man with a bad leg lead an entire convoy. Aren’t they afraid of bandits on the way?
"Ziga'er..."
Before sunset, the convoy arrived at the west gate of Linge City with many dangers.
The young man in the wheelchair finally breathed a sigh of relief, put down his feather fan, and wiped the fine sweat from his temples with the cufflinks of his Confucian robe.
Then he looked at the woman in smart clothes at the city gate, turned her chair and went over to say hello.
"Auntie, luckily you have lived up to your fate!"
"Xiao'er, thank you for your hard work!"
The well-dressed woman smiled brightly, looked Zhuge Xiao up and down, and praised loudly: "As expected of a good man from my Zhuge family, he dared to transport an alchemy furnace worth ten thousand gold from Bashu to Linge."
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone at the city gate.
They all took a breath.
No wonder the formation was so big, it turned out to be the Zhuge family's motorcade.
So many alchemy furnaces were actually handed over to a young man for escort. What kind of courage and cultivation is this?
The Bashu Zhuges are indeed so terrifying!
Zhuge Xiao felt ashamed, and quickly covered everyone's gaze with his feather fan, lowering his voice and saying: "Auntie! Our railway cars are full of traps, no one dares to snatch them. I just sat in a wheelchair the whole way and didn't do anything."
Zhuge Weiyue smiled and lowered his voice and said: "It's just a matter of building momentum! Others don't know that our Zhuge family is all about appearance. Don't care about other people's admiring looks. You can bear it!"
"it is good!"
Zhuge Xiao could only nod, turned around and pointed at the fleet behind him: "My nephew prepared all night after receiving your letter. According to your request, not even a live horse was used. A total of seven pieces of gold were consumed, all from my nephew. Can you reimburse me for what I took from my private treasury?"
Zhuge Weiyue's smile suddenly froze: "This is easy to say, this is easy to say! You must be tired. Go home with your aunt quickly. After washing yourself, sign the order with your aunt."
"My nephew doesn't understand business matters, just listen to your aunt!"
Zhuge Xiao turned the wheelchair: "Father has told me that the first thing to do when coming to Ge is to meet Mr. Kan. Auntie, you go back first. After my nephew comes to visit, you can go home by yourself."
"What's the point of visiting an old man? Since you've come to Linge, you will take over the business from now on. It's important to sign the contract."
"You can't say that, Kan... Auntie! Why are you locking the wheels of my chair?"
The chair wheel was locked, and Zhuge Xiao lost the ability to move.
After only a moment of shock, he and his wheelchair were thrown into the carriage.
He rubbed his head and had no choice but to take out the token and ask his servants to come to express his apology on his behalf.
This time Zhuge Weiyue didn't stop him.
Zhuge Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and prepared to take off his loose Confucian robe.
But he was held down by Zhuge Weiyue again.
"aunt?"
"For us Zhuge family men, the most important thing is image. You can't throw away the feather fan scarf!"
"But it's summer now."
"Feather fan towel, feather fan towel! Not only do you have a feather towel, you also have a feather fan!"
"..."
Zhuge Xiao was silent and could only shake his feather fan violently.
Only then did Zhuge Weiyue nodded with satisfaction: "This is what the men of the Zhuge family have to do, but you have to shake it more slowly in the future. If you shake it too fast, all the immortal energy in your body will be blown away."
"..."
Zhuge Xiao choked and laughed dumbly: "Aunt! My nephew is coming to Linge for the first time. Is there anything I need to pay attention to? I heard from my father that the water in Linge is very deep, and you will offend people if you are not careful."
Zhuge Weiyue thought for a while: "There's nothing worth noting. You just need to remember two points. First, don't worry about everything. Second, don't think too much when things happen. Don't worry about your family, and don't think about what's going on behind your back. When competing for interests, if you only act in your own interests in everything, you will never make a big mistake."
Zhuge Xiao pondered for a long time and found that he still didn't understand: "My nephew is stupid."
"Why are you so stupid? Auntie will give you an example!"
Zhuge Weiyue grabbed the feather fan and fanned the cool breeze loudly: "Just like these pill furnaces, the Ninth Prince asked me for them privately, and Concubine Jing asked me for them. These two groups of people have a lot of grievances in private, and they may even be in trouble. The matter of fighting for reserves.
But these have nothing to do with us. We only need to consider our own business. We will sell to whomever pays more.
If we are given the same amount of money, we will choose the one that is good for our reputation.It seems that both parties are offended, but in fact neither party is offended. "
"I see……"
Zhuge Xiao was thoughtful: "So, my nephew just needs to choose the strongest mansion this time and try his best to get a spot in the Soldier God Tower, right?"
Soldier God Tower.
It is said to come from the ruins of the previous dynasty.
It is a holy place that opens up the hidden treasure of the physical body.
If he could enter the God of War Tower when he broke through the physical realm, it would really be possible for his legs to heal.
If you want to enter the God of War Tower, there is only one way to go.
Opening a government, or becoming a government official, is exchanged for merit.
Zhuge Weiyue was very pleased: "I can teach you, boy! With such a smart mind, I am not far away from curing my leg."
"Then whose house is the strongest this year?"
"It belongs to the Ninth Prince."
"Then why don't we sell the alchemy furnace to them?"
"Whoever sells the alchemy furnace is in my interest, and which mansion you join is your choice. You and I have different interests, so why should we influence each other?"
"Both our aunt and nephew can figure it out clearly. What a profound wisdom!"
Zhuge Xiao hasn't figured it out yet, so he still wants to ask some light-hearted topics: "By the way, aunt, have you done anything interesting in Linge these days?"
Zhuge Weiyue thought for a while: "Interesting fact? There seems to be one."
"what?"
"The Ninth Prince made a mess in front of the Tenth Prince's Mansion a few days ago, and I don't know who the bad guy spread the news about. It's so funny, hahahaha..."
"..."
Zhuge Xiao looked at this aunt who had reunited after a long absence and felt that the joys and sorrows of each person were not the same.
Linge's jokes seem a bit difficult to understand.
The Ninth Prince is truly a mysterious man.
……
Danfang Street, Yonghe Danfang.
"Damn it!"
"madness!"
Zhao Yong looked gloomy. It had been so long since that incident, so why did it spread throughout Linge overnight?
There were not many people at the gate of the Tenth Prince's Mansion that day, most of them were relatives or servants of small officials, and even if they had the guts to speak against the members of the royal family, they would not dare to do so.
So there is only one candidate.
However, no evidence has been found.
Zhu Yan was a little puzzled: "Why did Zhao Ci do this? It is not particularly difficult to find the source of the rumors. His Highness was told a joke for a while, but it also tarnished his own reputation. This is not only hurting the enemy eight hundred, but also damaging himself. Thousands of dollars?"
Zhao Yong snorted coldly: "This man has been walking his dog and playing with birds since he was a child. He is no different from a gangster in the market, and his methods are no different from those scoundrels. Maybe he really thinks that spreading these things will make me so ashamed that I dare not dare to do so." Go out, miss this auction, and give up the alchemy furnace, right?
Little did he know that this move would also allow Linge people to see his face clearly, and they would bite him back a thousand times in the future.
He didn't even know that I had been involved in politics and business since I was a child, and that my inner strength was beyond his imagination. Mere rumors didn't even have the qualifications to move me. "
Zhu Yan stood in awe: "Your Highness is wise!"
Zhao Yong stood up and said: "Let's go! The auction is about to start. Let's get these pill furnaces first, and then let Zhao Ci know what the price is!"
"Yes!"
Zhu Yan nodded solemnly and followed him downstairs, preparing to rush to the place where the auction was held.
But never thought.
As soon as I walked out, I saw two familiar figures.
He reminded: "Your Highness, look quickly, isn't that Miss Luotang? Your Highness, Your Highness... where is the person?"
I looked around and saw Zhao Yong nowhere to be seen?
Zhu Yan: "..."
What about being mentally strong?
But it is.
With the rumors all over the city, who can say hello to the woman he likes calmly?
What Zhao Ci did was really cowardly and stupid.
Doesn't he really think he can seize the alchemy furnace with this?
Those who jump off the beam only add to the laughter.
