All the way into Weicheng, Lin Ji said goodbye to Geng Ran and headed eastward.
I saw that every house was brightly lit, and red lanterns with happy characters were hung everywhere.
Young and old alike were all smiles, and even the beggars on the street were bloated and drunk.
A group of young children, each holding a small flower drum, were playing around in the street, singing in unison:
"The gong in the left hand comes with the drum in the right hand,"
"Let Lin Tian catch you from Weicheng."
"Killed countless demon kings,"
"All the people rejoice and have abundant crops."
"The Lu family hijab and the Zhong family candle,"
"Tianguan Tianguan is so blessed."
"The golden beams and jade pillars that frame the sea,"
"I won't endure hardship with Dingtian Official."
Lin Ji couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this. If Da Qin was still there, this nursery rhyme alone would be enough to sentence me to death!
Nowadays, Jiuzhou is uncertain and the world is in chaos.
But he used my marriage to stage a happy and prosperous scene, and made up such a nursery rhyme.
Its purpose is self-evident!
"Brother Lin?!"
At this moment, the man walking towards me suddenly stopped and shouted half-surprised and half-joyed.
Lin Ji took a look and saw that it was Han Li, the rich second generation of the Xian family of the Qingcheng sect.
"Ha! It's really Brother Lin!" Han Li ran over quickly with a smile on his face.
Lin Ji took a look and saw that the boy had darkened a lot and had a long scar on his forehead. It seems that there are many hardships in going out to experience these days, but it can be considered as a gain, and it is already a late-stage cultivation in the Night Travel Realm.
Lin Ji was also very happy to see Han Li again, and asked with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, why did you come to Weicheng?"
"I wanted to go to Yunzhou." Han Li said quickly, "But on the way, I heard that you were making a big splash in Weicheng, killing three demon kings in a row! I wanted to come over and see you. When I arrived at Xuzhou, I heard You said you were going to get married, so you rushed here day and night! Brother Lin, your marriage is such a big event, brother, can I not come to congratulate you?!"
"Haha, you came just in time!" Lin Ji patted Han Li on the shoulder and said, "Come on, follow me to the dragon boat for a drink."
"Okay! Have a good drink!" Han Li had been grinning widely since he met Lin Ji.
The two of them were walking and talking. As soon as they arrived at the pier, the magnificent scenery of picking up and dropping off guests happened to be right in front of them.
Following the flow of people waiting on the shore, as soon as the two of them boarded the boat, a little maid hurriedly ran towards them and said: "You two gentlemen, Miss Yujiao invites you upstairs."
"Hey? What's the point of this?"
Before Lin Ji and Han Li could take a step forward, they saw a young man wearing a gold silk shirt stepping in front of him. He asked the maid sternly: "I am here to congratulate the Lu family, and we are boarding the ship together. Miss Yujiao But why do you favor one over the other? Just invite them upstairs to see you alone?"
The maid didn't know the reason, so she hesitated and said: "I...I don't know, it was Miss Yujiao who gave the order."
Han Li was quite unhappy. He glared at the man and said, "What's going on? You're jealous when we go upstairs alone? Just because of your appearance?!"
The man's face turned cold when he heard this, and he glanced at Han Li up and down and said, "You foreign bumpkin, be careful with your words! Do you know what relationship Lin Ji, Lin Tianguan, who is about to marry the daughter of the Lu family, has with me?"
Han Li glanced at Lin Ji and said, somewhat dumbfounded: "Then tell me, what is your relationship with Lin Tianguan?"
When he asked, everyone on the boat stopped rushing to take their seats and all turned to look at the young master.
"Listen up!" The man pulled out a folding fan with a snap and said loudly and sternly, "My surname is Ma Gang, my aunt, my aunt! She is the seventh wife of the former head of the Lu family, Lu Guangshou!"
"So what?" Han Li asked with dissatisfaction.
"So what?" Ma Gang glanced at Han Li as if he were an idiot and said, "The two Mr. Lu are brothers of the same clan! So after all, Lu Zhaoer, the daughter of the Lu family, is my cousin! Lin Tianguan is my brother-in-law! Now the whole world The Lu family has the final say in Weicheng! My brother-in-law is famous all over the world!"
With a snap, Ma Gang unfolded the folding fan and fanned it slowly in a pretentious manner. He raised his neck slightly and looked at Han Li with an arrogant expression: "Have you understood this time? I am Lin Tianguan's uncle! With this status, But aren’t you more qualified than you two bumpkins to sit upstairs alone?”
When Han Li heard this, he was both angry and ridiculous. He stepped out of Lin Jidao and said, "Then do you know who he is?"
Ma Gang glanced at Lin Ji nonchalantly and said, "Whoever he is, what does it have to do with me?"
At this moment, there was a slight noise upstairs.
It was Hu Yujiao who brought two maids with her. She bowed slightly in front of Lin Ji and said, "Lin Tianguan, my little girl just didn't dress up and comb her hair properly, so I couldn't greet her in person. Please forgive me."
"Lin Tian...this!" Ma Gang couldn't help being shocked when he heard it, and said with wide eyes in disbelief, "You, are you that Lin Tianguan?"
It was only then that Lin Ji turned to look at him and said with a stern face: "You have three days to leave Weizhou. If you continue to use Lin's name in the future, you will be killed without mercy!"
Then he ordered Han Li: "Don't talk about sitting alone, he is not even worthy of boarding the ship! Keep him off!"
"Okay!" Han Li responded with a smile, picked up the guy like a chicken and got off the boat with a pop.
"Ah! Help, help..."
After the horse fell into the water, it choked several times and kept flopping around. It seemed that it didn't know how to swim.
The simple thing is that just as the boat was sailing not far away, several waves knocked him back to the shore.
At this time, Ma Gang's hair was disheveled and his gold silk shirt was stained with mud. He was not as arrogant as before.
"Ah!" Ma Gang, who was paralyzed on the shore, shouted suddenly and pulled repeatedly.
When everyone saw it, they saw a big crab biting hard on the crotch. The horse was so painful that it rolled over on the ground and screamed.
Everyone on the boat laughed loudly, and then saluted Lin Ji and said, "I have met Lin Tianguan!"
Lin Ji responded with a salute and said, "Everyone, if we see such a person again in the future, we will beat him up without any hesitation! There will be a heavy reward for overpowering the Lu Mansion!"
"Heavenly Official and Great Virtue!"
"The arrival of the Heavenly Official is truly a blessing to Weicheng!"
Everyone on the boat sang in unison again.
It is undoubtedly pleasant to be praised by others, but hearing it too much... makes Lin Jidi feel a little goosebumps.
】
He quickly turned around and went upstairs with Han Li.
The Zhou family seen outside the city relied on their status as monks to bully the people unreasonably, so they naturally had to deal with it ruthlessly.
As for Ma Gang, he was just using his name to show his prestige, and there was no serious harm. He could just give him a warning and drive him out of Weizhou.
Lin Ji, who has been in Jian Tiansi for many years, knows that if he allows them to do whatever they want, his reputation will be scolded in the future even if he is praised very highly now!
After entering the building and taking a seat, Hu Yujiao personally came forward and filled Lin Ji and Han Li's glasses with wine. Then she said very carefully: "Senior, a big event is approaching. I, this junior, shouldn't be allowed to sit alone, but there is something very important, so I have to." Word!"
"Say!" Lin Ji clinked glasses with Han Li and drank them down without even looking at her.
