A new day, Suzaku City.
Today's Nijiuzi Alley is much busier than before. Where the street where Danfang is located extends back, a large number of new homes have welcomed their owners.
People from the City Lord's Mansion came here very early. Mu Qing and Wang Yeqing stood together, looking at the people from all the families in the city, frowning slightly: "Has the City Lord's Mansion notified these people?"
In January, the weather in Suzaku City has begun to resemble that of early summer. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. So many people gathered together, which inadvertently made the originally arranged scene noisy.
Wang Yeqing was a little helpless when he saw this scene: "Don't hit the smiling person with your hands. People want to join in the fun, so you can't drive them away. And their sudden enthusiasm is also related to Baidi City's reaction."
Mu Qing nodded silently upon hearing this.
That is, yesterday, the palace of Baidi City suddenly announced that from now on, all the cultivating forces in Youyan Prefecture will be ruled by Suzaku City. All practitioners who enter Youyan Prefecture must abide by the rules of Suzaku City.
As soon as this announcement came out, it instantly caused an uproar within the imperial dynasty. Everyone could see that Emperor Bai was giving in and even weak when facing Suzaku City.
"It should be that woman Gu Yingqiu who has returned to Baidi City." Mu Qing said
After Mu Qing came back from Firestone City, he and everyone looked at the scene in the Mingguang Pearl. This also happened yesterday. Counting the time, it was almost the time when Gu Yingqiu returned to Baidi City, and Baidi quickly gave a reaction.
Wang Yeqing hummed, feeling the awed eyes of those in power in the family not far away who looked at him from time to time, frowning and said: "They can only see the weakness of the White Emperor, which is probably a common problem of secular forces. "
Mu Qing smiled and said: "A great immortal will sit firmly on the top of a mountain even in the world of spiritual practice. Emperor Bai is shrinking from everything now. I wonder if the Mujin royal family has any opinions on him?"
"What?" Wang Yeqing's eyes lit up slightly, "Do you have any ideas about Baidi City?"
Mu Qing shook his head and said: "I just think that when the royal family gets into chaos one day, Emperor Bai will probably do another disgusting thing to appease those people, and Suzaku City will have to guard against it."
Wang Yeqing became more serious and said, "Bai Di is probably prepared to make a surprise move without making a move. This matter really needs to be explained to the people who are left in the city."
The two discussed here for a while. Bai Qingyi came over with Lei Tongtian and others. Mu Qing smiled at Bai Qingyi and said: "The house is probably not divided enough, so we can only squeeze in first."
Bai Qingyi's complexion has been much brighter recently, and she smiled when she heard this. Lei Tongtian on the side couldn't help but said: "For most of you, you will feel hot when you sleep at night. This is really a problem that you have never thought about."
Mu Qing found it quite interesting. They used to live in Juye City, where the weather was dry and cold. It took a while to get used to living in Zhuque City. He was a little worried that Bai Qingyi in front of him would not adapt. He said, "Don't worry, the Kowloon Dynasty Yuan Dynasty Although the formation has changed the climate, it can be adjusted and it won’t be very hot even in midsummer.”
Bai Qingyi rolled her eyes at him and whispered, "I have long adapted to the weather here."
Mu Qing grinned, stepped forward and took Bai Qingyi's hand, asking, "Are you ready?"
Bai Qingyi held Mu Qing's hand with her backhand. Once she accepted her relationship with Mu Qing, the capable and sober Bai Qingyi came back. She pursed her lips and smiled and said, "I don't need to prepare."
The intimacy between the two made Wang Yeqing, who was standing by the side, couldn't stand it anymore, "Come over quickly, I don't want to be the deputy city lord for a day anymore."
"That won't work. Everyone agreed to let Qingyi take care of it."
Mu Qing said something, and before Wang Yeqing left him, he took Bai Qingyi's hand and walked towards the front of the crowd.
There was a platform that had been set up in advance. When Mu Qing and Bai Qingyi walked up, the scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on the two.
Mu Qing has never been a normal city lord, so he skipped the usual opening remarks when announcing business and directly said to the people around the platform: "I want to say two things."
"The first thing is that from today on, the place where you are standing will no longer be called 'Nizuzi Lane', but will be officially renamed 'Suzaku Street'. It
The area under its jurisdiction is basically the same as the previous Nijiuzi Lane area. In the future, this area will become one of the busiest places in Suzaku City. "
As soon as these words came out, the most lively area around the platform was the area where those families were located.
They discussed one after another. With the strength that Mu Qing has shown now, this Zhuque Street will be a place where powerful people gather in the next decades or even hundreds of years. As soon as these people got such a clear message, they immediately arranged for their men to take action. I want to know where else there is undeveloped land nearby.
Mu Qing stood on the stage and saw the movements of these people clearly. The reason why he didn't want to see these families coming here just now was because he expected that it would happen sooner or later.
Due to their own limitations, the ways of passing down the family traditions that these families adhere to are actually quite consistent, and they all adapt to the times.
Now, Mu Qing is not conceited, but understands that he is the "current situation" to these people.
After waiting for a moment, those people were shocked to realize that Mu Qing was still standing on the stage. They became quiet almost at the same time. Mu Qing nodded slightly and his voice softened a lot: "The person standing next to me is Bai Qingyi from Juye City. Bai Miss, she will be the deputy city lord of Suzaku City in the future, assisting Mrs. Wang in handling all matters of Suzque City."
Under the stands, Wang Yeqing rolled his eyes. He had promised her yesterday that he would not let her serve as deputy city leader again, but now he changed his mind.
After saying the two things, Mu Qing and Bai Qingyi walked away together. The impact of these two things on everyone was no less than the first thing, or even greater. The reactions of those families were also different. Some people were trying hard to find out. As for Wang Yeqing, some people were staring deeply at the hands held together by Mu Qing and Bai Qingyi.
Although Mu Qing did not talk about his relationship with Bai Qingyi, anyone with a discerning eye could see what was going on in this situation.
When Mu Qing and Bai Qingyi returned to Wang Yeqing, they saw Wang Yeqing's eyes narrowed in a dangerous arc. They quickly pointed at the people in the crowd who were looking this way and said: "Mrs. Wang, you see, they are obviously worried about your absence in the City Lord's Mansion in the future. Take care of things."
"If I really do this today, it will make them think that we are having internal strife. It will be bad if they violate the things you arranged before."
"Hey." Wang Yeqing sighed helplessly, "You haven't learned anything else, but you are good at reasoning with women."
"Hehe." Mu Qing smiled awkwardly: "This means they recognize you. When the situation stabilizes in the future, it won't be too late for you to step back."
"I hope the time you mentioned will come soon."
Wang Yeqing sighed, and then snatched Bai Qingyi away from Mu Qing with a vengeance, "You two will have more time together tonight. Now accompany me back to Jiuyou Tower. There are still many things to deal with today. "
"Sister Wang." Bai Qingyi felt a little shy when she heard Wang Yeqing's teasing. She looked back at Mu Qing and left with Wang Yeqing.
After Mu Qing left here, he walked towards Danfang. He didn't turn back until he was almost outside Zhang Shaoyao's small yard.
Mu Qing went to the steamed bun shop opened by Zhang Zhijing on the street and stood on the street outside the shop for a while. Soon, a pretty figure rushed out of the shop and came to Mu Qing's side.
"Here, do you want to eat it?" Zhang Shaoyao stretched out his hand and handed a butter paper packet to Mu Qing.
Mu Qing looked at the two figures who were still busy in the shop, with a much softer expression, and asked with a smile: "Have you paid?"
Zhang Shaoyao wrinkled the tip of his nose and hummed softly: "I stole it, and I didn't give you any money."
"That's good." Mu Qing reached for the oil paper bag and sat down on the roadside.
Zhang Shaoyao's little face was slightly startled, as if he was remembering some scenes from a long time ago, and he sat quietly and obediently next to Mu Qing.
Mu Qing opened the oil-paper bag, divided the steaming buns into two halves, handed half to the girl, and asked while eating, "Is anyone else here to disturb Uncle Zhang and Aunt Xiaoya?"
Mu Qing still remembered that when he came back, he met a group of people surrounding the shop.
Zhang Shaoyao shook his head: "The people who made trouble that day were invited to stay in the Guards for a while. The people behind the scenes were also severely punished. No one came here to make trouble anymore.
thing. "
Mu Qing nodded slightly. Today's Zhuque City is changing every day. The demands of all parties are mixed together. Every day, there are countless people looking for connections to find Wang Xiuwei's rouge shop. Mu Qing said: "I have told Sister Henhe After this incident, the Joint Law Enforcement Team will arrange for people to watch here every day."
"Yeah." Zhang Shaoyao responded softly, tilted his head and glanced at Mu Qing with a slightly doubtful look. He seemed to have thought of something, curled his lips silently, divided the steamed bun in his hand into many small pieces, and wanted to put them together. He threw it on the ground, but Mu Qing snatched it away and ate it all into his mouth. He said vaguely: "What's on your mind? Why do you have to sulk here? You can't tell me about it?"
Zhang Shaoyao bent his legs, put his arms on his knees, rested his smooth and white chin on them, looked at the ground with wide eyes, but said nothing.
"Hey..." Mu Qing reached out and patted her shoulder, "I was busy a while ago, I'm sorry."
Zhang Shaoyao bumped his shoulder, dodged his hand, turned his head and said, "You were busy practicing and dealing with big things. Suddenly you have time to come and accompany me. You have to leave again, right?"
Mu Qing's hands froze in mid-air and nodded: "Yes."
Hearing this, Zhang Shaoyao buried her little face in her arms and said in a loud voice: "Then you have been with me, you can go."
Mu Qing looked at the girl's thin figure huddled together and felt guilty. He gently patted the bun on her head with his hand. This was the place he liked to destroy the most before, but now he only dared to touch it twice before feeling guilty. Di took it back and said slowly: "When the Black Sea incident is over and we bring Wei Rui back from the Western Mountains, I won't be running around."
Zhang Shaoyao suddenly raised his head, his dark eyes sparkling, and he seemed to be even more angry: "I'm afraid you were busy with several sisters-in-law at that time, and you didn't have time to pay attention to me."
"how come!"
Mu Qing blurted out, as if even he himself was unsure and his tone was a bit high-pitched. Mu Qing held the girl's hand, pulled her up, glanced at the shop like a thief, and said, "You're just going to miss work today." Okay, let’s go around the city, and the school at Sister Chun’s side should be very lively, so let’s go there first.”
Zhang Shaoyao was interested, but he still couldn't help but said, "You want to see Sister Xiaotan and the others, right?"
Mu Qing twitched the corner of his mouth: "Your brother, am I so miserable here?"
"Hmph." Zhang Shaoyao turned around and walked out of the street, "Then we agreed, play with me for a day, and I won't be angry with you anymore."
