Recently, a big event has happened in Woniu Prefecture of Nanli. This state originally belonged to the Chen family among the eight families. The Chen family had such a strong foundation in Woniu Prefecture that they even vaguely regarded this state as As the most prosperous place among the three states under his control, for some unknown reason, he resolutely abandoned this state a few months ago and handed it over to the Feng family, which belonged to the same eight families, but was usually very unruly to deal with.
This matter is strange, but the people who have lived in this state all year round have no intention to care about the reasons behind it. They are just a little more worried than usual, for fear that the Feng family will be violent and harsh, and it will be difficult to maintain it properly. Now it is okay The prosperous Woniuzhou is so disturbed that it is dark and dark, and there is no way to live in peace. However, the people's worries this time seem to be quite unnecessary. In the past few months, there has been no news from the Feng family. Even many officials in Woniu Prefecture who originally belonged to the Chen family have not been changed and remain as before. In this way, it is as if the Feng family has long forgotten that Woniu Prefecture, which originally belonged to the Chen family, has now become its own territory.
But ten years ago, someone drove up in front of the Woniu Prefecture Government Office. Six or seven carts were parked on the side street of the Prefecture Government Office, and they were settled down in a logical manner. The man in front of him was quite handsome, and he was cold and cold. She only wore a gray and white singlet, with two long strands of hair falling outside her temples. Her behavior and conversation were extraordinary. She had not visited the state government office, but lived beside the state government office. On the street, he planted all the fertile soil and medicinal root seedlings brought from six or seven cart tents in the courtyard. He never went out all day long. Even the few people in the government office who came to spy on him were suspicious.
The state government office is undoubtedly the most powerful area in the state. On weekdays, not only are there people living next to the state government office, but even high-ranking officials from other places come to Woniu Prefecture to visit and discuss important matters. , and can only rest in an official building a few streets away from the state government office. It is absolutely not allowed to do such arrogant behavior, let alone the Tongzhou government office is only one street away, so in recent days, many people who are lying on the cow The policemen and soldiers of the state government patrolled the state government several times. Although they returned without success, they could at least put their worries to rest.
But the man still didn't go out for half a month. Only from the flower soil and medicinal roots thrown out from the backyard could we guess that the people who lived here had not left. Everyone in the government office They were all suspicious, and they were discussing incessantly, saying that this person must have a very powerful background. How could an ordinary person not go out for half a month and go to a restaurant to eat and drink? What's more, the man was the only one in the mansion, and there was no maid left. The servant, who has not seen smoke from the kitchen for many days, is probably a master of a very high level. In the cold winter, even a cultivator who is rumored to be able to reach Lingxu may not have such confidence.
Woniuzhou Mu has not slept well for two or three days in a row. Today, while the sky is still sunny, he puts on his clothes and goes out to the outside of the state government office. He looks at the extremely unexpected mansion. He feels very upset and glares at it fiercely. , he was about to put on his very old coat and walk back to the house, but before he could look back, the door of the mansion on the next street opened, and a young man with a plain expression walked out, holding a number of colorful coins in his hand. The dilapidated flowers smiled at Zhou Mu, who was already in his sixtieth year. He walked forward very naturally and spoke gently.
"I have heard about the reputation for a long time, and finally saw it. The Chen family has been in Wo Niuzhou for many years, and the people are rich. From my opinion, Chenzhou Mu should be the first to contribute, and his literary skills can be regarded as a high-ranking official, whether in Nanli or in other countries. Among them, all are hard to find in a hundred years."
When the young man said this, his eyes were calm. He looked at the old man with gray hair swaying in the wind. There was a smile at the corner of his mouth. He looked like he had no aura at all, he was just an ordinary young man.
Old Zhou Mu raised his eyebrows and smiled, his two long eyebrows fluttering in the wind, "The people sent by the Feng family are quite young. It seems that it is time for these elderly people like me to abdicate in favor of talents. ; As for the merits of the eight expressions that the little brother just mentioned, it is just because no one in Nanli is willing to do such a time-consuming and labor-intensive hardship to make a living. The eight expressions mentioned are just trivial and boring things, and they have nothing to do with them. Compared with his official achievements, I am really ashamed to accept such praise."
Zhou Mu raised his hand to greet him, but the young man did not show any timidity, still holding the strange-colored dilapidated flowers and plants in his hand. It was clearly winter, and even in the warm mountains and valleys in Nanli, it was difficult to see flowers and plants in full bloom. , and the one in the young man's hand seemed to have wilted on the branch just recently.
"The Feng family has been coveting Woniuzhou for a long time. Unfortunately, I haven't guessed how much the Chen family will pay to give up Woniuzhou this time. But the Chen family has indeed moved away. Only I am waiting for a few people to remain in office, waiting for people from the Feng family to come and take over." Old Zhou Mu looked around for Zhang Taishi's chair and sat down. He has been working at his desk all year round. It is obvious that the old man's waist and legs are extremely weak. Even such behavior now makes him uncomfortable. It was quite difficult, and it took me four or five breaths before I could sit down. I pointed to the Taishi chair in front of me and smiled with the young man, "No need to be polite. In the past few days, there was a tense situation in this state office. Many people handed over their hands. My advice is that I might as well test it out first. Even if I can’t find out your identity, I should at least give you a warning and treat it as a bluff.”
"But in the past few days, this junior has not been disturbed at all. He spends his days planting flowers and grass, hoeing fields and removing stones. It is much more comfortable than standing near the Feng family master's house. Thanks to Chen Zhoumu's protection, I can barely make this happen. With such a blessing, I can take care of my own flowers and plants properly." The young man smiled, looked up at the old man in front of him, his expression showed some sharpness for no reason, "If the old man didn't give orders to restrain me, I'm afraid that in the past few days, I'll be pure. He wanted to destroy all the people, but this move saved the lives of many people."
Laozhou Mu called the maid to make a pot of tea, and then turned back to look at the young man. There was no surprise in his expression. He smiled slightly and said, "The Feng family is worthy of being among the top three seats among the eight families." Everyone, it seems that there is not much fireworks in just the season of action. Such a young cultivator is probably at the peak of his realm. The old man has not paid attention to his subordinates before, but he is ashamed."
"I don't know how the Immortal Master will decide the fate of my Chen family. Wo Niu Prefecture is under the jurisdiction of Lao Lao. Although it is considered stable and quite prosperous, since it was handed over to the Feng Family by the hands of the Chen Family, it should be that the Chen Family hidden in the depths should be taken care of." After the family has been cleaned up, Woniuzhou is finally in their hands."
The old man did not hide his words, but spoke the truth that everyone knew briskly, causing the young man opposite to have a slight movement in his expression.
"I am impressed by Mr. Chen's magnanimity." The young man smoothed down the two strands of hair by his ears, held them in his hands and played with them. His handsome face had gained a bit of femininity for no reason at this moment, but it soon disappeared and turned into a With a playful expression, "Logically speaking, what Mr. Chen just said should be the norm. Being among the top eight families is undoubtedly a good thing, but it is even more like being on a high cliff with thousands of feet. Although the ropes in the distance are in a prominent position, they themselves are always worried. Therefore, the Feng family's methods may be more domineering than the other seven families. If they attack, they will ambush ten sides and definitely not leave a glimmer of hope. "
Having long expected such remarks, Chen Zhengqiu stood up with difficulty, took the tea soup from the hand of the maid on the side, and filled up seventy percent of the overflowing tea for the young man in front of him. Instead, he filled a cup of tea soup for himself, and picked up the tea cup. , drank the tea soup in one gulp, regardless of the boiling temperature, the hands holding the cup were red from the heat, and the skin of the face was also flushed, but he still drank the tea soup into his throat.
"The young man hasn't told me his name yet. Can you tell me a few details? It doesn't need to be too detailed. At least I know who will be in charge of this place in the future. If it's not unlucky, I'll kill me, a rotten person who doesn't have a few years to live." Just kill here. After staying here for too long, I really am not used to moving." Chen Zhengqiu looked at the very simple furnishings in the mansion with a sense of sadness. He slightly raised his eyes and looked at the handsome young man in front of him. , and soon calmed down.
"Yu Wenyue, a boy with a compound surname by the Bajiang River, is not well-known. When I was a boy, many people called me Rotten Taro. This is because I had no father or mother since I was a child. It was probably because my family was poor and my parents really had no money to support them. He threw me outside a ruined temple, and there were three characters embroidered on my clothes, which are my name." Yu Wenyue drank all the tea in front of him, with a faint smile on his face, "Maybe the old Zhou Mu doesn't know, but I have a very bad temper. He is easy-going and most avoids hitting and killing, especially killing animals. He is deeply bored by it, and he only likes to plant some flowers and branches to cultivate his moral character."
Chen Zhengqiu frowned, not understanding what he meant, so he raised his eyebrows and looked Yu Wenyue up and down several times.
"With Zhou Mu's talent, he should know the meaning behind his words," Yuwen Yue waved his hand, picked up the broken flower he had always held in his hand, and waved it in front of his eyes, "I mean, flowers and plants are more precious in my eyes. , As for the name of Zhou Mu, what does it have to do with me? The Feng family handed over the entire Woniu Prefecture to me. As for how to manage it and who should be used to manage it, it is all up to me. Since Chen Zhoumu was in office, the people had good things. As time goes by, Woniu Prefecture is even richer, why would I bother to drive out the Chen family?"
After saying that, Yu Wenyue stood up and patted the old man's shoulder rudely, "Keep it in your heart, if you want to kill them all, no one in the Feng family can be used. Even if you take over the entire Nanli territory, what's the use? Don’t say it’s me, the head of the Feng family is here in person, and he won’t embarrass the state pastor.”
The young man walked to the door of the mansion and spoke to Zhou Mu, who was still stunned, "As for why I said those words just now and didn't stop you from drinking hot tea, it's because I'm new here, so you can't be less powerful." , to make up for it, I hope Chen Zhoumu will not hold a grudge in his heart, after all, if he asks Zhou Mu in the future, he will not be able to avoid visiting him."
"gone."
After Yu Wenyue walked out of the gate of the state government office, he buried the broken flower by the roadside and left it there for a while. Then he walked to his mansion across the street, opened the door and took a step forward. He sat down in the middle of the courtyard and picked up a handful of mud. He poured tea into the pot, and then he felt that something was wrong. He kicked away a human head that had not yet melted away from the medicine field next to him, muttered a few words of bad luck, and got up to take care of the flowers and plants in his courtyard.
It is necessary to know that the most suitable medicine is to nourish the body.
"The herb is so tall that it grows to the sky. It grows two thorns that can damage the fairy's coat."
"But please don't let anything happen to the Feng family at this time. Mr. Tiao went to kill a few idle people. He lost his money and lost his income."
The young man's gray and white clothes were fluttering and he was talking to himself.
