Chapter 0108
"The news of Fenglou's closure for rectification, like an explosion in ancient inscriptions, has been passed down to every corner of the state." Whether it's before tea or after dinner, what everyone discusses the most is the inside story of the closure of Qifeng Building.
Although, there are not many witnesses to the cause of the incident. But after all, there are still such a batch.
There are various speculations. But most of them are gloating. Who made Qifenglou so high-profile and so deep?
Those low-level nobles who are not eligible to enter Qifeng Tower for consumption are even more secretly happy, wishing that Qifeng Tower will collapse and die.
Nanyunzhou City, the mansion of Ximen Davalor.
Ximenyu spread out his palm, and a carrier pigeon fell into his hand. Take out the thin bamboo tube and pull out a note.
In the dark behind him, there are two guardian brains serving the "Thirteen Cold-Blooded Eagles".
"Lord, has the emperor sent a letter?"
Ximenyu opened the note in his hand, his tiger eyes swept over the note, and suddenly he went into a daze, and then it passed by in a flash. A look of astonishment appeared in his eyes.
"Second Guardian."
Ximenyu was silent for a moment, and finally spoke slowly.
The tall second guardian came out from the darkness: "Lord, what are your orders?"
"You will take that girl Yan'er to Luojiang County tomorrow without stopping, the sooner the better." Ximen Yu said in a very serious tone.
Immediately added a sentence: "How to do it, I don't need to explain it to me?"
The second protector said cautiously: "What the lord means is that he is going to retire from the Daxi family. How to control the style, please tell the lord."
"Well, divorce." Ximenyu's tone at this time, without any reluctance, pondered, "As for the style, it doesn't have to be too high-key, nor too low-key. It's just moderate. Don't cut too much face for the Daxi family, but you must maintain the dignity of the big family. All in all, we are the ones who voluntarily divorced, and the Daxi family is responsible for apologizing. This degree. Can the second protector handle it?"
"If the lord has given the regulations, the subordinates will definitely not be entrusted by the lord. It's just that the second lady is concerned, and the subordinates are worried that she will get angry with the eldest lady.
"I'll warn her. After I'm released, all discipline rights will belong to the second guardian, who can be beaten or scolded. When necessary, I can enforce the family law on my behalf. No tolerance will be tolerated." Ximenyu explained seriously.
"Your subordinate obeys orders." The Second Protector replied respectfully.
"Well, you go down first and rest early. We will leave tomorrow." Ximenyu dismissed the second guardian.
The great protector who had been in the dark suddenly sighed, and said faintly: "Lord, has the result of the trial come out?"
Ximen Yu's tone was bleak. Long sigh. There is a trace of reluctance, but more envy and admiration.
"That's right, in our Baiyue Kingdom, a king with a different surname is about to appear."
"Personal Champion, Mona..."
"Just as you and I expected, the flower fell to Donglin Qin's family." Ximen Yu said in a serious tone.
The great guardian muttered to himself: "The Qin family in Donglin has soared into the sky from then on."
Luojiang County was quite peaceful during this period, because the three most outstanding martial arts boys all went to participate in the trial, which made Luojiang County lose a lot of atmosphere. However, it also resulted in a lot of talk.
Seeing that the one-month trial period has passed, I believe that in a few days, the results will be sent to Luojiang County. By then, the results of the trial Wutong in Luojiang County will be known soon.
afternoon. Da Xiheng was playing chess with the family elders in the yard when suddenly a confidant broke in and whispered something in his ear.
Daxi Heng was usually calm. Hearing what the visitor said, he also frowned.
"Here comes the great master Ximen? The second protector personally sits in charge, and Miss Ximenyan?"
Da Xiheng was a little suspicious for a while, what does it mean that the Ximen master came at this time? Whether it is a blessing or a curse, he has no way of knowing.
"Patriarch, it's a blessing, not a disaster. A disaster can't be avoided. You have to face it." The elder pushed the chessboard, completely disrupting the chess game.
Da Xiheng nodded: "I'll go and have a look."
"You go, I'm worried about all the strong members of the family, and they are ready to fight!" The elder did not dare to neglect in the face of the masters of the Ximen lord.
In the hall of Da Xi's family, Da Xi Ming did not lose his etiquette. Greeting countless guests from Ximen lord. He appeared unflappable. But in his heart, he didn't know why, he didn't know what Ximen Davale's visit this time meant.
Especially that Ximen Yan, who looked left and right at him unscrupulously, and there was a faint resentment and evil spirit between her eyebrows.
As for the second protector, there was no murderous look on his expression, and he had a very standard public relations face, making it impossible to see what was going on in his heart.
After serving tea and snacks, Da Ximing was about to speak, when suddenly footsteps came from outside the door, steady and powerful, with a relaxed rhythm, obviously it was his father Da Xiheng. Sure enough, as soon as Da Xiheng entered the door, he swept around, with a smile on his face: "Sure enough, it's the Second Protector of the Great Clan of Ximen who came to visit. It's a bit of a long way to welcome him."
The second protector smiled lightly and didn't get up. Just nod.
"Second Protector, Miss Ximen, I don't know why you came from a long distance this time?" Da Xiheng asked cautiously, not daring to neglect.
"Hey," the second protector twitched his brows slightly, and said in a neutral tone, "In recent months, there have been rumors spreading to my Nanyunzhou City. There are many right and wrong, which made my lord feel very unhappy."
"Oh? What does Yixiao Shanyi refer to?" Fa Saiheng knew what he was referring to, but he came out of the state with his obvious knowledge.
"Patriarch Daxi, Ming people don't speak dark words. My patriarch sent me this time to dissolve the marriage contract between you and my family. Because the rumors about your son in Luojiang County have highly affected the reputation of my Ximen clan. As for this matter, the responsibility lies with your Daxi family. How to deal with the aftermath, my patriarch asked Patriarch Daxi to think about it."
Break up the engagement?
Both Da Xiheng and Da Ximing were taken aback. I thought my ears were wrong.
They originally thought that the other party was here this time. He wanted to urge them to get married as soon as possible, but he never expected that the other party's request was actually the opposite.
This is for Da Ximing. Definitely a blessing in disguise. Almost wanted to blurt out the word "good". But he knows that his father is here, and everything is decided by his father.
Da Xiheng has no objection to the divorce. But what he was thinking more about was that Ximen's boss had proposed to withdraw the engagement without any reason, which was impossible without conditions.
This is not like Ximen Daval's style at all.
Da Xiheng pondered and said: "Second Protector, what does the noble lord mean?"
"The lord's intention is very clear. Retiring the engagement is a must. In order to save the reputation of the Ximen lord, you Daxi family must make a necessary gesture."
Da Xiheng suddenly realized that this was blackmail and demanded compensation! But Da Xiheng didn't care about these things, if he could retire the engagement. Compensation and the like were accepted by the Daxi family. I just hope this is over.
The second protector stood up suddenly, and said in a concentrated voice: "Patriarch Daxi. I have brought the words of the lord. If the Daxi family wants to settle this matter, it depends on your sincerity. My lord is waiting for news from the Patriarch Daxi in Nanyunzhou City. The period is seven days. No waiting after the expiration date!"
After confessing to the sheep, the second protector didn't even stay for a moment, and left directly.
And that Simon Yan. Not a single word from beginning to end. Instead, he kept his face sullen, looking at Da Ximing with displeasure in his eyes.
When the powerful members of the Daxi family arrived, they found that the Ximen clan had already left.
Da Xiheng remained silent. Obviously thinking about something.
The master Ximen came and went like the wind, and he came and went so suddenly that he couldn't see what was behind the strings.
The Ximen family voluntarily resigned? This kind of thing is not in line with Ximen's usual style of doing things. It sounds like Ximen Daval's tone is still very high-profile.
However, there is obviously a lot of room for maneuver in this high profile. From the looks of it, it was almost as if the master Ximen took the initiative to find a step down for the Daxi family.
Now, it depends on how he, Da Xiheng, goes down this step. Apologizing, offering property, these are trivial matters, and with the financial resources of the Daxi family, they can still afford them.
As for an apology. For an aristocratic family, apologizing to the big family is not a shameful thing in itself. It's even a glorious thing.
After all, there is a conflict between the aristocratic family and the big family. It's going to end very badly. To end with an apology is a victory in itself for the aristocratic family.
"Father, could it be the Qin family's factor in this matter?" Da Ximing asked cautiously, he remembered hearing Qin Xiu mention that Qin Wushuang went to practice this time, and it seemed that he planned to go to Nanyun Prefecture to meet the great master Ximen. "The Qin family? Ming'er, although the Qin family has won the Xu family and won a place in the wealthy family, it is unknown, but do you think that the current strength of the Qin family can threaten the Ximen family?" Da Xiheng asked back.
"Father, I think it can." Da Ximing is different from his father, he has a deeper admiration for Qin Wushuang.
"Ming'er, son of the Qin family, I admit that he is a monster, but you have to know, the master of Ximen, he is the peak of the ninth stage of true martial arts! In Nanyun Prefecture, there is no way that any force can make him change his mind..." There must be something else hidden about this matter.
No matter what, I decided to go to Zhoucheng to see what the Ximen Clan Master really is..."
Before finishing this sentence, a confidant outside the door suddenly trotted in: "Patriarch, there is a flying pigeon to send a letter."
Da Xiheng took the bamboo tube, pulled out the note inside, and couldn't help being dumbfounded after touching it. But then. Another look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
"Father, where did you get the letter?" Seeing his father's expression, Da Ximing knew that there must be good news in this letter.
"Yang'er, he has qualified! Moreover, he won the seventh place in the total score of the Chimu Royal Land! And the Chimu Royal Land is ranked first in the group among the four kings!" Da Xiheng said in a quite self-assured tone.
Suddenly his expression changed, a little weird. Laughing self-deprecatingly: "Ming'er, take back your views on the Qin family just now for my father. I have to admit that my father is still not far-sighted enough in judging this matter."
"Father, could it be?"
"Qin Jiazi, he won 600 points during the trial, leaving the second place far away by several blocks. Individual first, group first highest contribution value
Da Xiheng's tone was full of envy, and he sighed: "The Qin family of Donglin, granted the title of king and marquis, has risen steadily since then. Ming'er, you have vision, you have vision!"
Wang: There should be four more changes today. old rules. Three consecutive explosions at night. hehe.
