Chapter 38 (28)
Jiang Liechen was impatient and glanced at her casually, saying, "It's you, why are you here to join in the fun? Why didn't your father come?"
Ping Ruoyu's expression was originally happy, and he immediately became dim. He also said that he had his own eyes in his eyes, but he was also asking about his father. He smiled bitterly and said, "No, I attended their party, first I was hiding it from him. My father had already planned to quit the world and not get involved in the martial arts world anymore. I had to give up the deal with you before. I hope you can fulfill it. He is old..."
Jiang Liechen had no intention of "fulfilling", and his face immediately sank, and he said, "What does it mean? Is it false to be the promise of me? Can he let him go back on his word?"
Ping Ruoyu begged, "It's all my fault. It's me who made trouble for no reason and ruined Pingjiazhuang. My father had no place to stay. He was hit hard. Looking back on the past, he realized that things in the world were impermanent, and no matter how noble the power was, it was unreliable. He just wanted to live a peaceful life. I can guarantee you that he would never become your enemy. As for your accomplice... you, Lord Jiang, have as much as you want, no more than one, no less one, no less one. Please..."
Jiang Liechen said, "Stop talking about it. I don't care what he has to say about it? He promised to be loyal to me. The deadline is not over yet, so he dared to unilaterally break the contract? Do you know what the consequences of those who betray me all along?"
Ping Ruoyu's eyes turned red and he whispered: "You told us that the end of betrayal is only...a dead end. But... my father didn't betray you, he was just too tired, so tired that he was powerless... What's the point of forcefully leaving a subordinate who was ineffective? It will only become your burden. Why not... let him go and treat it as a reward for his loyalty to you for many years..."
Jiang Liechen interrupted, "Don't think about it! A stupid old guy, he thought that what I said was just casually? If you want to refuse me if you are too tired, then I might as well send him to the grave and rest forever! Go and tell your father, think clearly and then come to my reply. Otherwise, I will not only want him to hand over all the past rewards, but also his life. Let everyone see, and dare to betray me, that's the end."
Ping Ruoyu's nose felt sore, and finally shed tears. Shangguan Yaohua saw it and felt unbearable. He raised his hand to protect her behind him and said annoyedly: "Don't bully her! If you have anything, come to me! Especially, don't curse me in front of me, my father-in-law."
As soon as these words were said, not only Jiang Liechen, but also the jubilant guests also calmed down, and their eyes were all looking at the three people beside him. Jiang Liechen frowned and said, "You want to protect her? What's your position? Just to oppose me?" Prince Fu suddenly burst out laughing and said, "Yaohua, there's nothing shameful about this, why are you doing a hesitant? Just tell everyone the good news in front of everyone. What's your relationship with Ruoyu?"
Shangguan Yaohua's cheeks flushed and he stammered: "This... this... I am with Ruoyu..." He was even more shy than a girl, and he couldn't say that key words. Prince Fu smiled and said, "I'm still shy? I really don't have the macho spirit at all! I'll just say it on your behalf..." Shangguan Yaohua hurriedly said: "No... no! She... she... I am with Ruoyu, she is my newlywed wife!"
The atmosphere was even more warm at this time. Nangong Xue smiled and said, "Ahua, are you moving very quickly? You picked one of our flowers so early?" Then, thinking of this sentence with a derogatory meaning, he changed his words and said, "Ms. Ping is a good girl, you must treat her well." Shangguan Yaohua looked sad, and Ping Ruoyu sneered, "Thank you. It is the real honor to get the blessings of Nangong Girl." Nangong Xue didn't know that she had such a deep hatred for herself, but she didn't realize the deep meaning.
Jiang Liechen was slightly shocked, then pressed down and said, "Congratulations, Yaohua. Why didn't we show any slightest bit of silence in advance? In this way, I want to ask you for a wedding wine." Shangguan Yaohua snorted coldly, "I am not a relative of you, nor is it because of me. Why should I report my affairs to you one by one?" Ping Ruoyu laughed first and said, "That's natural, but unfortunately we were a little hasty in our greetings. Most of the guests were invited by our adoptive father, but we were definitely not deliberately hiding you."
Jiang Liechen looked at Shangguan Yaohua and said, "You said you were not close to me, but because of the fact that the relationship was so clear, it was sad. Seeing your father-in-law and son-in-law's side, I will let it go..." Seeing that Shangguan Yaohua's face was unhappy, he changed his words halfway and said, "Let your father-in-law go. I will ask you to make up for this gift sooner or later." Suddenly, he pulled up Shangguan Yaohua's wrist, and this move suddenly came and used the "small catcher" technique of the inner family. Shangguan Yaohua was shocked and could not dodge and caught him.
Jiang Liechen just shook hands with him and congratulated him. His thumb and index finger took advantage of the momentum to hold his wrist and tightened it tightly. Shangguan Yaohua only felt a big pain in the meridian door, as if he had cut it open inch by inch. His bones sounded faintly, and his face changed immediately. He couldn't even use the strength of his struggle. He was so painful that he was about to faint. Suddenly, a sound came from his ear and said in a low voice: "Does it hurt so much? Then beg me for mercy! Just ask for the previous sentence, I will let you go immediately." This was Jiang Liechen speaking to him with the magic sect's "Tian Dun Sound Transmission" technique.
Shangguan Yaohua had a tough attitude. The more threatened he was, the more he refused to give in. He could not send a message, so he raised his eyes and stared at him, indicating that he would never accept it. At the same time, his expression turned as usual, but sweat beads naturally rolled down his forehead. Even Ping Ruoyu did not see anything abnormal between the two, but only said that it was intimacy between friends.
Shangguan Yaohua's heart was so painful that his heart was about to turn over. He just wanted to scream. He gritted his teeth and endured it, but he held all the pain in his body, giving birth to a feeling of "it will be painful to death in the next moment". His thumb was oppressed, and there was a clear sound of shattering from the bones inside.
Seeing that he was going to hold on, Jiang Liechen was destined to be ruined. He always admired him very much and couldn't bear to destroy him like this. He sighed and let go of the clamp. Shangguan Yaohua's arm immediately dropped and slammed heavily on his side. Ping Ruoyu habitually held his arm.
Shangguan Yaohua was unable to shake her away at this time, and his arm was not raised at all. Ping Ruoyu still thought that his attitude towards him suddenly changed. In fact, even if it was not the case, he would have protected himself and his father in front of Jiang Liechen, which was enough for her to be grateful to him for the rest of her life and to be with him for the rest of her life.
Jiang Liechen seemed to be a matter of course and sat in the same place as Shangguan Yaohua. Shangguan Yaohua secretly checked his wrists and saw a fingerprint on each side, which was dark black and faintly purple. When he touched the corner of the table, he was about to grin in pain and hatred for him a little deeper.
Shen Shiyun was very attentive at this time, and her attitude changed from being a habitual cold. She brought tea and water and asked about her well-being. She was a bit more thoughtful than being a maid's servant. However, Jiang Liechen did not accept her affection at all, and refused a few times, suddenly said: "In the past, you had to do something wrong in secret from time to time. I have long been used to being on guard everywhere. What makes you feel uneasy when you suddenly become enthusiastic?"
Shen Shiyun smiled and said, "I was confused for a while before, which made you angry. Now I specially held a banquet to apologize. Even if I was angry, it should be gone. If I can get this treatment in this palace, I will only be the only one in the world."
Everyone in the banquet was dissatisfied. According to what she said, this gathering was not a major plan, but was just for apologizing. It was better to be respectful to the wise and polite, but he was accompanied by himself and others. Wouldn't he be embarrassed in front of this demon demon sect at the same time?
Jiang Liechen's eyes turned, swept around the room casually, and said carelessly: "Why, my adopted son is not here?"
Shen Shiyun was stunned at first, and after a while, she realized that what he was referring to was Xuan Shuang, and the "adopted son" was deliberately humiliating himself. After asking someone to be three points short, she suppressed her anger and smiled and said: "Yes, after the child returned to the palace, he seemed unhappy and locked himself in the room without paying attention to anyone, but he didn't know what little calculations he was making in his heart. Perhaps he was annoyed that this palace forced his interference in his private affairs, but he was not angry with you, but hoped that you would not misunderstand it."
Shangguan Yaohua leaned forward and sneered, "Well? 'yyy' adopted son?" He had deep questions in his words, as if he regarded this as a ridiculous thing. Jiang Liechen's face did not change his face and said lightly, "Although I have not officially worshipped the world, I saw that he was outstanding in his mind and had an extraordinary understanding in the morning, and deliberately accepted him as his adopted son and focused on cultivating him. Although he refused to admit this relationship, what did the half-year-old child understand? Who dares to say no?"
Shangguan Yaohua said: "I'm afraid you're too self-talking. Ling Beile is a prince, has a prominent position, and the honor you will receive in the future may not be inferior to the deputy leader of the Demon Cult. If you follow you, what will you do? You are just becoming a despised little devil. Besides, what's the price for some people?"
Before others could respond, Ping Ruoyu and his wife followed him and clapped their hands and smiled, "Yes, no wonder I first saw you bring Shuang Jin to Pingjiazhuang, and I thought that the relationship between you and the two of you was a bit strange. It is true that the master and apprentice are intimate. If you are in seniority, you have already grown older than him. Why do you have to be his father? Besides, if you really want to take advantage of it, you should recognize a grandson and the like... Hehe, but it turns out that you can't let go of others and feel embarrassed to mention it. It's hard to get what you want in reality. It's good to make a pair of names. When will you try to get a sister-in-law for me?"
If this is a joke among ordinary friends, it is a topic of topic. When Jiang Liechen heard it, he felt upset and said, "Nonsense! The little girl talks nonsense. It's enough to take care of your husband." Ping Ruoyu stuck out his tongue and took Shangguan Yaohua's arm. At the same time, he was very sticky, just like a candy that could not be shaken away, and he leaned straight towards him.
Jiang Liechen then said to Shen Shiyun: "If you don't say secret words, be honest, what do you want to ask me?" He used the word "seeking" as soon as he opened his mouth, which clearly defined the relationship between the two guests and the host.
Shen Shiyun pretended to be unaware and said, "Just as I said just now, please ask Lord Jiang to follow my orders and raise troops to attack the city at the right time. There is no need to really turn the capital upside down. Just make postures on the periphery and fight with the guards in the palace, and hold them back for the time being. Those useless little pawns are simply vulnerable to your sects. I guarantee that you will not lose one soldier or one general. The high-ranking Qing dynasties were focused on preparing for war, and the pawns were incompetent, but they were greedy for enjoyment, and they were dealing with it everywhere. Therefore, there must be a lot of spoils in this battle, and they can once again establish the undefeated prestige among the people, making them afraid and retreat before the battle. It is convenient for you to use this time to send troops to fight. In any case, this matter will be beneficial to you without any harm. After the matter is completed, the palace will be rewarded and will never treat you badly."
