The Demon Soul is Coming
Chapter 220 Sister-in-law and brother-in-law
Chapter 220 Sister-in-law and brother-in-law
Liu Sang swept to the distant cliff, watching Xia Zhaowu quietly.
Xia Zhaowu sat there with her "injured foot" in her arms, looking so pitiful, I felt pity for it.
Now, should he go out as "Brother Mori"?
Liu Sang sighed, thinking that this is still not good. He can pretend to be "Brother Sen" for a while, but can he continue to pretend?This is not online dating. Two people who don't know each other start "dating" with a false image. When they meet in reality, they find that they don't meet their expectations and break up directly.
A girl like Zhao Wu, who looks brutal but is actually innocent, is easily hurt. If she falls in love with the so-called "Brother Sen" and finds out that it is just a scam, she can really bear that kind of blow ?
If the lady found out, she would definitely kill him with a sword?
Therefore, it is better to let Zhaowu's sister-in-law be disillusioned from now on.
Hiding in the dark like this, watching for a long time, a thundercloud came from the sky, there was a rumbling sound, and it rained heavily, and the girl was actually sitting there the whole time.
The summer showers come and go quickly, so at noon, the drenched sister-in-law is still motionless.
Could it be that my animal trap was overdone and really broke her foot?Liu Sang couldn't help feeling nervous for a while.
……
***
Xia Zhaowu was drenched and curled up on the grass.
After the shower, the air is more fresh, and a colorful rainbow bridge hangs in the distance.
The beautiful girl hugged her legs and sat there alone.Time passed bit by bit, but she didn't find the person she wanted to wait for.
Is it that he doesn't care about me?Or he...
Thinking that maybe Brother Sen was seriously injured after the fight with "Eastern Saint" You Youxu, and he might even have died in Juejizhou, but he didn't know it, and suddenly there were bursts of pain in his heart.How is he?Is he still alive?Is he really safe and sound?
Knowing that Big Brother Sen might be in danger.Not only could she not help him, she even wanted to go to a dangerous place and let him protect herself.I'm really...too capricious...
But I really want to see him, and want to know if he is safe.
The Hongqiao in the distance slowly dissipated.
The girl sat there alone.It seems to have become an ice sculpture.
In front, a figure slowly approached, she suddenly raised her head, opened her eyes wide, and looked at the man in front of her.
The wooden mask, the cold breath, the loose robe...the warm eyes...
She jumped up suddenly, but her legs went numb, and she fell forward, plunging in.It is a warm embrace.
Her heart beat so fast: "Brother Sen..."
The masked youth sighed... Is it really right to do this?
It's just that I really can't bear to make her wait any longer.
He picked up the beautiful girl and carried her into the forest. The beautiful girl opened her eyes wide and became nervous for a while.
put her on a stone.The masked young man squatted down, checked her injured calf, and said slowly: "The bone of the foot is not broken, it's just the skin."
Feeling the contact between her ankle and the man's palm, the beautiful girl blushed and turned her head: "Yes."
The masked young man stood up abruptly, full of murderous intent: "I'll kill him for you."
The beautiful girl was taken aback.Grabbing his arm firmly: "Kill, kill who?"
"Your brother-in-law!" A black air rose from the masked young man, and even his tone was icy cold, "It's tolerable to bully a girl, who can't bear it, I'll kill him."
With a flash of his body, he disappeared like this.
"Don't!" Xia Zhaowu never expected to become like this, she jumped off the boulder in fright, and chased after her outside the forest, but where could she see Brother Sen's shadow?
It's over, it's over, it's over, I was just acting with my brother-in-law and pretending to be pitiful, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this.Brother Sen is a peerless master who is not even afraid of "Eastern Sage" You Youxu, one of the seven great masters. He can strangle his brother-in-law to death with one finger.
Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, your thin idea is going to kill yourself.
It's just that although it was the brother-in-law's idea, but the brother-in-law also wanted to help her. When she thought that her brother-in-law would be killed by Brother Sen, the girl was terrified to the extreme.What if the brother-in-law really died because he was angered by Brother Sen?
She was so anxious that she wanted to cry.
Desperately using the vertical lifting technique, she wanted to rush back to the city to protect her brother-in-law, but a figure flashed in front of her, and a masked young man stood in front of her.
The girl threw herself into his arms and was hugged by him, she didn't have the heart to be ashamed, she quickly grabbed the other side's skirt: "No, it's not like that, brother-in-law, he, he just..."
The masked youth said indifferently: "I just played a play with you."
Xia Zhaowu was taken aback for a moment, and finally came to his senses, thinking in his heart: "That's right, Big Brother Sen is a master at the master level. At this moment, the name 'Dark Demon' has replaced 'Dong Sheng' and became One of the seven great masters who are famous all over the world, my brother-in-law and I are fighting for real, can't he see it?"
He murmured, "I'm sorry, Brother Sen."
The masked youth said, "You know you're wrong?"
Her body was still being hugged by him, and even her feet were hanging there. Feeling the intimate contact, the girl's heart was beating wildly, and she said embarrassingly: "Yes."
The masked young man put her down, rubbed her bun, and comforted her: "In the future, don't do such a stupid thing again." His body flashed and disappeared.
Although he has already left, the girl's rainbow-like feelings after the rain are still bursting with joy...Brother Sen still cares about me...
Blissfully dazed for a while, Xia Zhaowu drifted towards Ningyun City, before reaching the gate of the city, she saw her brother-in-law standing there holding a flower umbrella.She asked suspiciously, "Brother-in-law, why are you here?"
Liu Sang raised her head and sighed: "It wasn't the thunderstorm just now, I wanted to give you an umbrella, but the rain stopped just after leaving the city gate, so I just waited here."
The beautiful girl thought to herself, brother-in-law is also very concerned about me.
Liu Sang asked, "Did you see him?"
The beautiful girl hummed in a low voice.Liu Sang smiled and said, "I have a good idea?"
The beautiful girl glanced at him: "It's a thin idea at all. He has already seen that we are acting."
Liu Sang said: "Nonsense, of course let him see it."
Xia Zhaowu was surprised and said, "You already guessed that Big Brother Sen knew we were lying to him? Then you still act with me?"
Liu Sang shrugged: "It would be bad if he couldn't see it? If he really cared about you as much as you said, and then regarded me as a villain who bullied you, would I still be alive?" Looking at the sister-in-law quietly, Seeing that her clothes were soaked through, they were tightly fitted to her body, outlining her curves lightly.The quietly bulging breasts are naturally straight, the slender willow waist is smoothly tightened inward, and the skirt inadvertently forms a "ya" shape between the legs under the abdomen.She also wrapped her buttocks tightly, full of youthful and charming temptation.
Not noticing her brother-in-law's gaze, the beautiful girl felt a bit of guilt... She only wanted to see Brother Mori.But he completely forgot to think about his brother-in-law. He is really a child who can't grow up, and he will never be like this again.
She said softly: "Brother-in-law, I'm sorry..."
Although there was no rain, the sun was strong. Liu Sang held up a flower umbrella to cover her, and said with a smile, "Who made me your brother-in-law... oops!" The sister-in-law turned around and kicked him gently on the leg, tenderly He laughed and said, "You kicked me in front of me." He ran away happily like a rabbit.
Seeing her finally happy smile, Liu Sang felt much happier too.Even so, I couldn't help but raised my head, looked at the clear sky after the rain, and thought... what the hell am I doing?
Although my sister-in-law is happy and feels good.But looking back, isn't this a problem that has not been solved?Forget it, take one step at a time!
Holding a flower umbrella, she walked towards the city in a cool and unrestrained way...
***
Xia Zhaowu returned to her room, and Luan'er was startled when she saw that the second lady was drenched in the rain.Hurry up to get the wooden bucket and bath water ready. Although it is after the rain, it is still hot, not to mention the hot summer in the south. There is no trace of coldness, and the water temperature naturally does not need to be too hot.
Xia Zhaowu took off her wet clothes. With soft skin and a light body, she stepped into the bucket and gently scrubbed her body.
Putting my hand on my left chest, I just felt my heart was still beating so fast.
It turns out that Big Brother Sen has really been protecting me all the time. Also, knowing that my brother-in-law and I were lying to him, he still came out. Big Brother Sen is so kind.
Immediately afterwards, another thought flashed deep in my heart... my brother-in-law is also fine...
Brother-in-law is so good, if there is no big brother Sen, maybe I will fall in love with brother-in-law?Thinking of this, the beautiful girl's face instantly became hot, and she quickly sank her delicate body into the water, letting her hot cheeks sink into the water... What am I thinking?
He is my brother-in-law...
***
Liu Sang walked around in Ningyun City, and then went to the military field to fulfill his duties as a military adviser and general.
When I returned to Hou's Mansion, I suddenly found a luxurious carriage parked in the square at the main entrance, and many attendants carrying large boxes, who looked like they were giving gifts, and I didn't know where these people came from.
Just as she was wondering, the lady's maid, Xiaohuang, floated over and said, "Fu Ma, Miss is looking for you everywhere."
Liu Sang hurriedly followed Xiaohuang to the attic where the distinguished guests were received, but saw his father-in-law and his wife sending one of them out.When the lady saw him coming, she didn't say much, but said to the man: "I would like to invite your envoy to rest in the hall first. This matter is of great importance. Let my father and daughter discuss it."
The man saluted and said, "Just wait for news from Lord Hou and the princess." He led his attendants away.
Liu Sang asked suspiciously: "My lady, these people are..."
Xia Yingchen said indifferently: "I want to marry Zhaowu's wedding envoy on behalf of Young Master Yi."
To marry and dance?No wonder there are so many big boxes in the square, but they are all betrothal gifts?Liu Sang was startled: "Mr. Yi? Which Mr. Yi?" Just hearing that this man was able to put the word "Mr." in front, and let his father-in-law and his wife treat this wedding envoy with such courtesy, we can know that this Mr. Yi has a very good background. unusual.
Xia Yingchen said slowly: "Young Yugong's eldest son Yueyi."
Liu Sang was shocked...
***
Marquis Luming, Xia Yingchen, Liu Sang, the city guard Huangsong who was supposed to go on an expedition, and some important figures in the city gathered together in the meeting hall.
Marquis Luming had no idea at all, so he could only look at Xia Yingchen and said, "Daughter, what do you think of this marriage?"
Xia Yingchen glanced around: "What do you guys think?"
One of them said: "Grand Zhiyu is one of the few great princes who have the strength to overthrow the imperial court and change the dynasty in Hezhou. If we can marry him, our status in Ningyun City will double."
Another person said: "Besides, the force behind Xue Zhong, the 'Overlord of East Vietnam', is likely to be Young Yu Gong. If the town can get married, maybe this battle can be avoided.”
Several people in the audience were talking about it, but most of them agreed with the marriage.Of course, this is also a very normal thing. Compared with the Xia family in Ningyun City, Zhiyugong is far superior in terms of prestige and status.If the two parties are married, the side of Ningyun City is obviously the one who is overwhelmed.It can even be said that Duke Yu's marriage proposal was beyond everyone's expectations.It can be described as "overjoyed".
Xia Yingchen looked at Huang Song: "What does the old general think?"
Huang Song brushed his beard, pondered for a while, and said: "This is a family matter of the Hou family, and the Hou Ye and the princess are in charge."
When Old General Huang said that, the others couldn't speak again immediately.Xia Yingchen said indifferently: "The prince's family has no private affairs, not to mention whether they will marry or not, it is related to the future of the entire Ningyun City, how can we deal with it as a 'private matter'."
Old General Huang hesitated for a while, then turned to the side: "What do you think, the military advisor?"
Liu Sang secretly said to the old fox, it turns out that this old man is also so slippery.
Others don't know Xia Yingchen well enough.Naturally, I don't know, for the lady, Ningyun City is important, but the happiness of the younger sister's life is even more important, even if it is for the "future of Ningyun City".She will never push her sister into the flames.
The lady was originally a very assertive person, and she was afraid that she would not allow others to intervene in such a matter. As for holding a meeting and asking about it, she said that she would never abandon the public for personal reasons.That's just the posture of being a superior.
But Huang Song couldn't grasp the princess's intentions, so he simply pushed Liu Sang to talk about official affairs. As a military adviser and general, Liu Sang was supposed to make suggestions and give opinions on some important matters. When it comes to family affairs, his other identity is Ningyun. The horse attached to the city, the husband of the princess, also has a position to give advice.
Then again, it is obviously a major event in the city, and it is also related to the life of the youngest daughter. Everyone takes it for granted that the final decision rests with the princess, and the father-in-law is really dispensable.
Thinking of this, Liu Sang's heart moved, and he murmured: "It doesn't make sense."
Xia Yingchen looked at him: "It doesn't make sense?"
"This marriage is completely unreasonable," Liu Sang said. "Everyone knows about Zhiyugong's ambition, not to mention that he already has the power to dominate Hezhou. , marrying us is enough, Gongzi Yi is his heir, I don’t know how many conditions he has, he can marry a powerful family who is far stronger than us, why does he want to marry Zhao Wu? What does he want from us?”
Xia Yingchen pondered and said: "Although I, Ningyun City, are only a small prince, I have accumulated a lot of wealth due to the success of maritime trade recently, and the appearance of glass has directly eroded the glazed trade that was previously controlled by Lord Zhiyu... ..."
Liu Sang said: "For a careerist like Zhiyu Gong, the purpose of marriage is nothing more than money or power. We have no power, only money. If they can use this marriage to control our painstakingly established Sea routes and various businesses are naturally profitable, but the problem is that Zhao Wu is only the second lady, even if we marry, we cannot marry the entire Ningyun City..."
Xia Yingchen's eyes flashed, and she lightly placed her slender hand on her cheek. First, she seemed to understand what her husband said, and then she put it down slowly, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
The few people in the seat couldn't react for a while, but Huang Song, as expected of an old Jianghu who has experienced many storms, suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "I will immediately send more people to guard the Hou's mansion..."
Xia Yingchen stretched out his hand slightly: "No need."
Liu Sang said: "My lady..."
Xia Yingchen looked at him intently: "If the marriage proposal is successful, they want me to die, but if we refuse to propose marriage, so what?"
Liu Sang said in a low voice: "If the marriage proposal is successful, Xue Zhong, the 'Overlord of East Vietnam' and a large number of people under his control will definitely stop sending troops to our side, because they only need to kill the lady next, and use the name of Zhaowu If the marriage proposal is rejected, Xue Zhong will definitely send troops directly to try to capture Ningyun City, and the lady will die. Everyone knows that the lady is the backbone of Ningyun City. There will be chaos. Therefore, regardless of whether we accept the marriage proposal or not, the assassins are probably on their way."
Except for Huang Song, the others understood and looked at each other.
Luminghou said worriedly: "Daughter..."
Xia Yingchen said lightly: "It's okay."
But Liu Sang was not at ease: "Lady, you are very famous in Hezhou. If Lord Zhiyu wants to send someone to kill you, he must send the most powerful and difficult assassin. Ordinary soldiers will not be able to stop him at all."
Xia Yingchen said: "Are you and your father also in danger?"
Liu Sang said: "Although there is this possibility, everyone knows that in Ningyun City, as long as you are still there, there is no point in killing other people, so their primary target must be you."
Xia Yingchen said slowly: "Then let them kill me."
Lu Minghou said: "Then this marriage..."
Liu Sang knew that it was absolutely impossible for the lady to marry her sister to a place where she could not take care of her. For Xia Zhaowu, the lady was both her sister and her mother. Since the mother-in-law left them alone when they were young, the lady Bringing up her younger sister single-handedly, the two of them are both sisters and mother and daughter.
If it is an ordinary aristocratic family, the girl's marriage is mostly decided by the father. For political purposes, if the daughter is married off, the mother or sister probably has nothing to do, but the big and small affairs in Ningyun City are originally It is up to the lady to decide, since there is no such problem.
"You might as well put this matter on hold for now," he said in a low voice, "and please get ready, Old General Huang, to lead the troops out of the city tonight."
Huang Song immediately understood that since he still wanted to send troops, it meant that this marriage would be rejected sooner or later, so he said yes.

As a military adviser and general, Liu Sang was supposed to make suggestions and give opinions on some important matters. When it comes to family affairs, his other identity is Ningyun. The horse attached to the city, the husband of the princess, also has a position to give advice.
Then again, it is obviously a major event in the city, and it is also related to the life of the youngest daughter. Everyone takes it for granted that the final decision rests with the princess, and the father-in-law is really dispensable.
Thinking of this, Liu Sang's heart moved, and he murmured: "It doesn't make sense."
Xia Yingchen looked at him: "It doesn't make sense?"
"This marriage is completely unreasonable," Liu Sang said. "Everyone knows about Zhiyugong's ambition, not to mention that he already has the power to dominate Hezhou. , marrying us is enough, Gongzi Yi is his heir, I don’t know how many conditions he has, he can marry a powerful family who is far stronger than us, why does he want to marry Zhao Wu? What does he want from us?”
Xia Yingchen pondered and said: "Although I, Ningyun City, are only a small prince, I have accumulated a lot of wealth due to the success of maritime trade recently, and the appearance of glass has directly eroded the glazed trade that was previously controlled by Lord Zhiyu... ..."
Liu Sang said: "For a careerist like Zhiyu Gong, the purpose of marriage is nothing more than money or power. We have no power, only money. If they can use this marriage to control our painstakingly established Sea routes and various businesses are naturally profitable, but the problem is that Zhao Wu is only the second lady, even if we marry, we cannot marry the entire Ningyun City..."
Xia Yingchen's eyes flashed, and she lightly placed her slender hand on her cheek. First, she seemed to understand what her husband said, and then she put it down slowly, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
The few people in the seat couldn't react for a while, but Huang Song, as expected of an old Jianghu who has experienced many storms, suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "I will immediately send more people to guard the Hou's mansion..."
Xia Yingchen stretched out his hand slightly: "No need."
Liu Sang said: "My lady..."
Xia Yingchen looked at him intently: "If the marriage proposal is successful, they want me to die, but if we refuse to propose marriage, so what?"
Liu Sang said in a low voice: "If the marriage proposal is successful, Xue Zhong, the 'Overlord of East Vietnam' and a large number of people under his control will definitely stop sending troops to our side, because they only need to kill the lady next, and use the name of Zhaowu If the marriage proposal is rejected, Xue Zhong will definitely send troops directly to try to capture Ningyun City, and the lady will die. Everyone knows that the lady is the backbone of Ningyun City. There will be chaos. Therefore, regardless of whether we accept the marriage proposal or not, the assassins are probably on their way."
Except for Huang Song, the others understood and looked at each other.
Luminghou said worriedly: "Daughter..."
Xia Yingchen said lightly: "It's okay."
But Liu Sang was not at ease: "Lady, you are very famous in Hezhou. If Lord Zhiyu wants to send someone to kill you, he must send the most powerful and difficult assassin. Ordinary soldiers will not be able to stop him at all."
Xia Yingchen said: "Are you and your father also in danger?"
Liu Sang said: "Although there is this possibility, everyone knows that in Ningyun City, as long as you are still there, there is no point in killing other people, so their primary target must be you."
Xia Yingchen said slowly: "Then let them kill me."
Lu Minghou said: "Then this marriage..."
Liu Sang knew that it was absolutely impossible for the lady to marry her sister to a place where she could not take care of her. For Xia Zhaowu, the lady was both her sister and her mother. Since the mother-in-law left them alone when they were young, the lady Bringing up her younger sister single-handedly, the two of them are both sisters and mother and daughter.
If it is an ordinary aristocratic family, the girl's marriage is mostly decided by the father. For political purposes, if the daughter is married off, the mother or sister probably has nothing to do, but the big and small affairs in Ningyun City are originally It is up to the lady to decide, since there is no such problem.
"You might as well put this matter on hold for now," he said in a low voice, "and please get ready, Old General Huang, to lead the troops out of the city tonight."
Huang Song immediately understood that since he still wanted to send troops, it meant that this marriage would be rejected sooner or later, so he said yes.
