Before entering the inner courtyard, Mu Qing heard the voices of Yin Er and others from a distance, frowned slightly, and walked in.
"Hey, the real master is here." There was a person standing next to Yin Er. When he saw Mu Qing coming in, his eyes lit up and he stood still.
As expected, it was this annoying person. Mu Qing just glanced at it, then looked at Yin Er who was walking towards him and asked, "You're not late, are you?"
Just as Yin Er was about to speak, Murong Xiu Ming hurried over. His long, narrow and cold eyes instinctively looked at Wang Yeqing behind Mu Qing, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"I heard what they said about you. It seems that you have been living a good life recently. You even have a follower."
Yin Er frowned slightly, feeling down on Murong Xiuming in his heart, and reminded him: "Master, this is Tianbang Zhuye Qing, not Mu Qing's follower."
"Oh?" Murong Xiu Ming raised his eyebrows, his eyes fell on Wang Yeqing's ordinary face. He looked at Wang Yeqing's face for a while before he realized what he was doing. He bowed to Wang Yeqing generously and apologized: "The boy's cultivation is low, he can't I see my sister’s disguise, please forgive me.”
Wang Yeqing: "Haha, even if you don't forgive me, I can't do anything to you, right? Master Murong?"
Wang Yeqing has always been very confident about her figure. She naturally knows very well whether the man's gaze is evil or admiring. She directly ignored Murong Xiu Ming's gaze and asked calmly: "Even if I don't forgive you, I can't forgive you." How are you doing, Mr. Murong?"
It was just a meeting and a few words, and Murong Xiu Ming's expression changed somewhat. The aloofness that he had deliberately maintained shriveled up after being poked at the pain point.
What he hates most is people saying that he relies on Murong Yin's majesty.
It's obviously his own fault.
Originally, he lived a life of flattery and felt very good about himself. But the turning point was when he met the guy in front of him, and everything changed. He even heard the servants making fun of him in his own mansion!
Murong Xiu Ming thought of this in his mind. He was warned by Murong Yin more than once before leaving, but he still couldn't help but provoked: "It seems that I have always underestimated you, but it's not bad that you are so capable. After all, you are helping me Murong Yin." Family work.”
The corners of Murong Xiu Ming's lips curled up, feeling quite proud. Except for Zhuque, none of the people in this courtyard was a dog under his father's throne.
Mu Qing looked indifferent. After settling Shaoyao and the others at Liu Yueshan's place, he became more and more concerned about Wang Yeqing's reminder. He did not want to have an insignificant dispute with this mentally retarded person. When he heard the voices in the room, he looked at Xiang Yin in surprise. Second asked: "Who else?"
Yin Er said: "Basically all the people who can come tonight are here. If you are talking about the people who are with Mr. Murong...except him, you also know a few others."
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows, not wanting to stand in a pile with Murong Xiuming anymore, and walked towards the house first.
As the footsteps approached, he already heard Suzaku's voice.
"That's it?"
Suzaku, who was sitting in the middle of the table, was a little bored. His eyes had already fallen on the door. When he saw Mu Qing coming in, he stretched out his hand to wave, "What are you busy with? I told you that there will be a discussion in the afternoon, but you still have to wait." It’s getting dark.”
"With or without me, it's the same... I just need to obey orders, okay?"
When Mu Qing saw Suzaku glaring at him, his tone softened, but he did not step forward to stand next to Suzaku. He glanced around the room and saw, good guys, there were people standing in the shadowed corners with flickering candlelight.
Yin Er said that everyone who could come has come, and Mu Qing has only now realized that compared to Hidden Valley's real move this time, there are also people participating in the hidden stakes that fell in Suzaku City before.
Mu Qing looked around in a wide circle, trying to remember more faces. Suddenly he found a line of sight that had been falling on his back. He turned around and looked over, and his eyes lit up.
Ning Chu also came, and standing next to her was Bai Jiahe.
Sitting next to Suzaku was Chen Zhuo. His size actually blocked most of the candlelight coming from behind him. After seeing Yin Er close the door, he stood up with a creak and walked towards the field.
"Tonight, everyone who enters this room is also a good player in Hidden Valley. In the next period of time, everyone must work together to achieve the goal as soon as possible."
Chen Zhuo turned around and looked for Mu Qing in the crowd, but he glanced past him and said in a deep voice: "I was the one who presented the plan they brought. If you have any objections, please raise them now."
The room was quiet. Everyone looked at each other, and no one took it seriously.
When Suzaku saw Mu Qing, Ning Chu and the others standing together, he hummed in his heart and stood up to be the first to express his opinion.
Chen Zhuo didn't even turn around to look, but when he saw everyone in the room looking behind him, he spoke first: "Since everyone is self-conscious, let me, Old Chen, do it.
He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice: "In any large city with a prosperous economy, the power of clans in it must not be ignored, and they need to be distinguished."
When Ning Chu saw that Mu Qing was half-comprehensive, he summarized the previous content to him in a low voice.
Mu Qing muttered: "It's naturally better to be able to win over one group and defeat another."
Ning Chu nodded and said: "Shopkeeper Chen has been operating in Suzaku City for so many years, and he does have some secret dealings with several families. The fact that the boss would deny his suggestion is beyond the expectations of many people."
Huaifenghua came to Zhuque City first, and Huaicaoshi had to look after Wanhua Valley again. At that meeting, Ning Chu attended on behalf of Wanhua Valley.
She recalled the situation at that time and reminded Mu Qing: "None of these people in Hidden Kill objected."
Mu Qing looked at Ning Chu, who nodded. There are many people in this place, and it is impossible to say more analysis now. Ning Chu changed the topic, "The plan determined this time is basically consistent with what was heard in Wanhua Valley. The most controversial thing may be the position of the city lord. .”
Mu Qing nodded. Because of Wang Yeqing's reminder, he had planned to completely withdraw from this topic, but he saw that Ning Chu's face next to him was a little strange, and Bai Jiahe's face was even more ugly.
At this moment, Suzaku had already stood up, attracting the attention of everyone in the room.
"Since Lao Chen has expressed her opinion, I will also express my opinion."
Suzaku glanced at everyone in the field and said in a cold voice: "Bai Hao is still alive and well. It is not impossible for you to decide on the candidate for the position of city lord, but what is this, Bai Jianwen? Just this level of royal blood can be combined not enough."
Chen Zhuo took a deep breath, even he did so, and the room was even more silent.
Mu Qing followed Bai Jiahe's gaze and looked towards Murong Xiuming, and finally understood the reason for Bai Jiahe's ugly face.
Bai Jianwen actually appeared here, standing with Murong Xiuming and others.
"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he was made to be a puppet, but he still looked excited." Bai Jiahe complained through gritted silver teeth, without deliberately lowering his voice, so he could hear clearly in the quiet room. Chu.
For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to Murong Xiu Ming, and the meaningful gaze contained a breathless pressure.
"Sir, there is indeed a reason for this."
Heng Yu patted Bai Jianwen on the shoulder, walked to Murong Xiuming, and said in a deep voice: "Suzaku City is just the starting point, Jianwen becoming the city lord is just a transition."
Suzaku sneered. Even if she was not in Hidden Valley, she knew that Bai Jianwen was just a banner and a puppet on the surface, and her purpose was not here.
"Then based on your discussion, who will assist Bai Jianwen?" Suzaku asked.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this. The topic of Suzaku got to the core. Although many people had their suspicions in private, they never thought that the process of knowing such secrets would be so simple.
Hengyu was dumbfounded. He was not qualified to know this kind of thing. Suzaku's eyes fell on Chen Zhuo's huge figure. There were so many people in the room, and the little patience she had after staying for so long had just been exhausted. She might as well He asked neatly: "Will it be you or Jiang Shangxiu?"
Out of an intuition, Zhuque thought that Murong Yin was unlikely to let the people they were secretly killing take such a position. She didn't know if Qinglong Baihu, who had been devoting himself wholeheartedly to these plans, was tempted by the position of city lord. She used When looking at all this from a detached attitude, I faintly discovered the difference in Murong Yin's supportive attitude.
The more people like Jiang Shangxiu were, the more supportive Murong Yin became.
This discovery made even Suzaku find it a bit strange. Apart from distracting Jiang Shangxiu and unable to concentrate on his practice, what else could he do?
This time's plan is too anxious about the fact that the clans in the city do not distinguish between friends and foes.
These are all questions. But Suzaku didn't intend to delve into it. If it wasn't someone, huh, she didn't even want to know the information about the position of the city lord.
But being stared at by many probing or curious eyes is not that pleasant after all. Chen Zhuo was not going to answer this question, but when he turned around, his eyes just happened to glance at Mu Qing in the crowd, and a ray of light suddenly bloomed in his heart, and he looked at Suzaku and smiled. He said: "I'm afraid these things are still some time away from now, but there are indeed some rumors saying that I will be in charge of the economy and trade of Suzaku City, and Deacon Jiang will take over the defense of the entire city."
"This combination is really good. In the next period of time, everyone should act as planned." From the corner of Zhuque's eyes, he noticed that Mu Qing had listened and raised his chin slightly, only to see Mu Qing chatting with the two women next to him. Engaged, the relaxed and joyful look in his eyes quickly returned to calm, and he sat back in his seat.
Chen Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief and looked towards Murong Xiuming. In the shadow, there were many people standing behind Murong Xiuming. After his eyes met with one of them, he looked at Murong Xiuming and asked: "Young Master represents the will of Zhang Lu. I don’t know if you can answer the question I just asked.”
Everyone's eyes turned to this side. Murong Xiuming raised his chin and smiled slightly. He was indeed completely different from Bai Jianwen who shrank his head and shoulders. He said proudly: "This is natural!"
"The advice given by the Third Elder in replying to the letter is not bad. In fact, my father thinks that there is not enough time."
Not enough time...
Chen Zhuo secretly clicked his tongue, and Murong Xiuming pretended to be profound and said: "There is news from other places back to the Hidden Valley that there is a movement in Baidi City. My father asked me to warn everyone that the matter has come to this, and it should be destroyed with thunder. If Xu Tuzhi may fall into the quagmire and cause harm to himself."
