The man who spoke was burly, with a slightly honest face set off by his bronze skin.
He is none other than the Lord of Niucheng—Zu Chengwen!
Hear the words.
Everyone looked at the two people who had just stolen the limelight, and they all had different thoughts in their hearts.
"Stop it!"
Focus entirely on the food in front of you.
Xue Yun stretched out his hand to stop it, grabbed the chicken drumstick on the table with his other hand and started to eat it. He said vaguely: "Lao Hu and I are still young, how dare we be the masters of everyone..."
The corners of his mouth were raised, revealing a harmless smile.
Xue Yun was completely different from before, and he declined: "Boss, it's better to find a highly respected person to take charge of the overall situation. We in Longdu are just here to make soy sauce, don't worry about us."
The leader of the alliance of princes——
On the surface, it seems to have unlimited scenery, but in fact, it is useless at all.
Let’s look at the group of city lords in front of us. Not only do they have evil intentions, but for their own interests, they can’t get together at all.
In a team, most people are busy playing soy sauce, and the rest are either waiting for opportunities or trying their best to pick up the slack.
This so-called alliance leader is mostly used to take the blame.
Xue Yundong watched the fire clearly and could clearly see the underlying logic of all this before he even arrived at the scene.
all in all.
Whoever wants to be the leader of the alliance should be the one who wants to be the alliance leader. Longdu will definitely not take a dip in this muddy water.
"It's such a pity..."
Sighed softly.
Gongsun Youhai shook his head hypocritically, looked at everyone present, and asked: "Which city lord do you think is qualified to be the leader of the alliance?"
"I think..."
He raised his hand to wipe away the grease from the corners of his mouth.
Xue Yun raised his eyebrows, pointed to the Iron Lady not far away, and said: "The Lord of Sima City is quite suitable. Not only is she strong enough to control the scene, but what is commendable is that she is also as meticulous as dust. I believe that under her Under wise leadership, everyone will be able to work together to severely injure the royal Xuanyuan clan!"
He drooped his eyelids.
Sima Nanqin's forehead was immediately covered with black lines. Although he could clearly tell that the other party was teasing him, he still wanted to beat Xue Yunpang out on the spot.
"You brat, are you deliberately trying to make fun of me?!"
He glanced at Xue Yun.
The Iron Lady had no expression on her face and said bluntly: "I am very busy and have no time to be your nanny. As the leader of the alliance, it is up to you to decide what to do. Anyway, I have no interest at all!"
Pick up the wine glass.
Xue Yun and Hu Kui looked at each other and smiled, and after gently touching a glass, they stopped expressing any opinions.
Everyone here has very different personalities.
For example, old foxes like Gongsun Youhai, basically like Xue Yun and Sima Nanqin, understand in their hearts that the position of leader is a hot potato.
There are also honest and honest people, such as Zu Chengwen who represents Niucheng.
more.
It is those ambitious and simple-minded madmen who have already begun to try.
"What kind of behavior does it have to be pushed around?"
An old man with a long face straightened up his stooped waist. With a deep look in his eyes, he sneered: "Since none of you are willing to take responsibility, let me be the leader of the alliance!"
Frowning slightly.
Xue Yun was not familiar with most of the people in front of him, so he quickly elbowed Hu Kui and asked in a low voice: "Who is this old guy? He seems a little not very smart?"
"Shhh, keep your voice down, someone finally pops up to take over, don't be f*cking scared away..."
There was a puff of smoke.
Hu Kui held a cigarette in his mouth, his fatigue had dissipated seven or eight times, and he introduced softly: "His name is Luo Qingyang, he is the lord of Shenju City, he is said to be eighty-eight years old, and he is the oldest prince in the Great Xia Empire. .”
He nodded in realization.
Xue Yun grinned and commented: "You are so old, have you lived as long as a dog?"
The two of them were whispering below.
Occasionally, there would be one or two weird laughs, as if they were back to the days when they were young in the Zhulin Orphanage. The instructor was giving lectures, but they didn't take it seriously at all.
"Lord Luo City, I'm afraid there's something wrong with this, right?"
He was wrapped tightly in a black robe.
The face of the man who spoke could not be seen clearly, only a pair of scarlet eyes were exposed, giving people an extremely gloomy illusion.
"Duguhan..."
Without waiting for Xue Yun to speak.
Hu Kui had already consciously come over and whispered: "The city lord of Yuandu City, it is said that the members of the Dugu family are good at hidden assassinations, so they never reveal their true colors easily."
"No wonder."
Cross your legs.
Xue Yun took a sip of the wine in the cup and commented: "Wrap yourself like a rice dumpling and change your skin. Will your strength become stronger?!"
The corners of his mouth twitched.
Sima Nanqin rubbed his forehead. He heard the whole conversation between these two guys, but his outlook was already shattered.
"Lord Dugu City, what do you mean?"
He raised his hand to smooth his gray beard.
Luo Qingyang asked in a deep voice: "Could it be that you think that with my qualifications, I am not worthy of being the leader of this alliance?!"
"Qualifications?"
Red eyes squinted away.
Duguhan's voice was hoarse, as if a subwoofer was installed in his throat, and seemed extremely heavy.
"If the alliance leader is determined based on age, wouldn't everyone present have to obey the orders of the bastard in the river?!"
Phew~~
A mouthful of wine spurted out.
Xue Yun couldn't help laughing immediately, saying in his heart that Duguhan's metaphor was just right.
"you?!"
Momentarily speechless.
Luo Qingyang was furious, but he knew the power of the Dugu family in Yuandu.
Even if you feel resentment in your heart, you never dare to offend the other person easily.
"The so-called alliance leader is supposed to lead everyone here to fight against the imperial family's power."
Sit where you are.
Duguhan continued in a deep voice: "Neither strength nor qualifications are decisive factors. Only by strategizing and having the wisdom to win a thousand miles away can we be worthy of leading the world's princes to advance and retreat together."
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
In the past ten years, the major princes and city lords have been repeatedly suppressed by the powerful Imperial City, and their living space has been gradually reduced.
If they could defeat the Xuanyuan clan, they would probably have turned defeat into victory long ago, and there would be no need to form an alliance now.
Compared to combat effectiveness.
What everyone needs more is wisdom and strategy, to check and balance the power of the royal family from another angle.
To some extent, Duguhan's views do make some sense.
"Therefore, I will take the position of leader of the alliance."
ah? !
He almost fell to the ground.
Xue Yun raised his eyebrows, never expecting that this guy would suddenly say such a sentence.
"My Dugu family has been famous for its resourcefulness for five hundred years."
Hold your head high.
He couldn't tell whether this guy's face was red or not, but Duguhan said in a determined tone: "Only if I become the leader of the alliance, can I lead everyone to turn defeat into victory and reverse the current unfavorable situation of the royal family's aggressiveness!"
Everyone was silent for a while, not knowing how to evaluate these words.
Xue Yun and Hu Kui were stunned, their jaws almost falling to the ground.
"Good guy..."
He folded his hands on his chest, showing an attitude of sitting back and watching the tiger fight.
Xue Yun complained softly: "I finally know why he refused to reveal his true face. This guy must be very thick-skinned. He would be afraid of scaring us if he showed it."
