Chapter 126: Party At Zhongfu, Lan Xin Died
The news of the marriage between the Zhong Mansion and the Changning Shen family quickly swept across the entire Azure Sun City.
There were quite a few people present.
But Zhong Yan had an intuition that it was Shen Lanxin's handwriting that the news spread so quickly, and the other eleven guards and three maidservants who came along did not appear.
It can be seen from this that Shen Lanxin is extremely concerned about this marriage and wants to do her best to facilitate it.
As for the reason.
It is easy to analyze from the obtained information, Shen Lanxin wants to use him to regain face in the family and regain some right to speak.
But Zhong Yan doesn't care, it's a matter of mutual benefit.
The monks in the city talked a lot, some were envious, some were sorry, and some were frowning.
After Yang Fu Yang Yanqing learned of this, his face was stunned, and then he suddenly realized.
Before, I wondered why the Zhongfu had seven more guest officials overnight, and recruited them with huge profits. It turned out that they had already secretly established a relationship with the Foundation Building family.
"This guy is really lucky, and he relied on Changning's big family without saying a word."
After thinking about it, Yang Yanqing speculated that Zhong Yan should have contacted Changning during the 'Wangyi City Auction' when many monks in the city left.
"It's a pity...it's okay."
Yang Yanqing muttered.
It's a pity because he and Zhong Yan jointly founded Fangshi in Azure Sun City, and they are already preparing for it.
But cooperation is also competition.
According to Zhong Yan's current actions, it is obvious that he wants to establish a family.
Then in Qingyang, there will definitely be competition between the Zhong Mansion and the Yang Mansion in the future.
In Yang Yanqing's heart, Zhong Yan is a difficult competitor, if he leaves, the Yang family will be the only one.
And the City Lord's Mansion.
Qin Ben is the one who 'frowns'. Not long ago, Zhong Yan took the initiative to hint at the establishment of a cooperative relationship, but in the blink of an eye he was far away.
Zhang Shundao: "I guess Zhong Yan didn't expect this matter. There was news from Fangshi earlier that the Shen family came all the way from thousands of miles. I didn't expect it to be for the Zhong House."
Qin Ben looked puzzled, "How could a Foundation Building family like the Shen family choose Zhong Yan?"
Zhang Shun glanced at him and said with a smile: "The city lord is also optimistic about him. Among them, Lin Zhengping of Huoyun Pavilion should have contributed a lot."
Qin Ben pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's see what he says."
...
At night at Haishi, the moonlight is like water.
Cangbao Street, Zhongfu.
Erzhongyuan Taoyuan has been transformed into a large venue, which is specially used for banquets and parties.
At this moment, the Taoyuan was brightly lit, and the banquet had lasted for nearly an hour.
In the open-air venue, tables and tables were arranged in a patchwork manner, filled with spiritual wine and food, and many monks came and went, chatting and chatting.
One hundred of them signed up for Keqing's recruitment, not limited to Azure Sun City Keqing Mansion, and a lot of Independent Cultivator from surrounding market towns also came.
Yu Qingyao, who was dressed in a sky-blue palace dress, stood alone under the peach tree holding a wine glass, watching the monks laughing and laughing in twos and threes in the spacious venue, and she was a little dazed for a while, and felt emotional.
She had the feeling of participating in a 'Yuanxiao party'. She never thought that one day, she would become the host of this kind of party.
It just hurts.
Spiritual stones are lost at a speed visible to the naked eye——spiritual wine, spiritual fruit, and monster meat are all money!
She didn't think about it when the Yang Mansion was held before, but now that she thinks about it, she feels very distressed, thinking that she will have to ask Xia He how much it will cost to come down this night.
Gu Baiyu walked to her side and asked softly, "Sister Qingyao, when are you going to Changning?"
"Oh, Gu Fellow Daoist."
Yu Qingyao regained her senses, turned her head and smiled, "Not yet."
She glanced at Gu Baiyu, walked to the stone table not far away and sat down.
"My husband said that if you want, you can go to Changning together."
Zhong Yan is quite satisfied with Gu Baiyu, and she intends to reuse it after more observations. Except for the reason of "Da Ri Bao Zhao Sutra", during the time she was in the Zhong Mansion, she never went into the mansion privately beyond the triple courtyard. She followed the rules and was very low-key.
Yu Qingyao had a good sense of her at first, but after hearing Zhong Yan say that she had a lot of scheming, she subconsciously didn't want to get close to her.
"Thank you sister Qingyao, next time I will thank Master Zhong face to face."
Gu Baiyu's expression was calm, and he could naturally feel Yu Qingyao's alienation. Some time ago, the other party changed her name to "Sister Baiyu", but now they changed it back.
But she doesn't care, the future is long.
She felt that as long as she didn't have harmful intentions and tried her best to do her duty well, even if she played some small tricks, she could win the trust and attention of Zhong and Yu in the future.
"Why didn't my sister come over?"
Gu Baiyu glanced at Zhong Yan and the others gathered in the pavilion in the distance. Shen Lanxin was sitting beside Zhong Yan, with a somewhat intimate manner, talking and laughing with Bai Siyuan and others very familiar.
Yu Qingyao shook her head and took a sip of the spirit wine.
Gu Baiyu said: "Sister, you don't need to worry too much. You and Master Zhong performed the ceremony of a couple. No one can replace your position in Master Zhong's heart."
Yu Qingyao smiled and said, "I know."
Originally, Shen Lanxin's kindness and generosity did not show the arrogance of the children of the big family at all. She should be happy, but when she thought of Shen Lanxin's scandals, she felt uncomfortable, and she felt uncomfortable when she got closer.
"Sister, have you heard that He Fellow Daoist from Qingxi Lane also passed away, and died at home yesterday."
This is the third time this month. The monks in the city were attacked and killed for no reason.
"My husband has no idea."
Yu Qingyao nodded, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she couldn't help thinking of the "Palace of Eternal Life" that she heard on the roadside when she went to Yangquanfang City that day.
But it is not important to Zhongfu, and Zhongfu will stay away from Qingyang in a short time.
The two chatted for a quarter of an hour, and when they saw Shen Lanxin leaving, they walked towards the pavilion.
Zhong Yan and others are also talking about 'the monk was killed'.
Bai Siyuan: "There are more and more monks in the city, good and evil are mixed, and half of them have not registered with the Keqing Mansion. It is normal to hide one or two Demonic Cultivators."
Wu Yang: "What's the purpose? If it's just to snatch the storage bag, wouldn't it be too bold to commit murder in the city?"
The three monks who fell were all women in the early stage of Qi Refining. They were killed by one blow. Except for the loss of the storage bag, there was no special abnormality in the corpses, they were not violated, or their vitality was sucked.
Pang Baodu smiled and said, "It's not impossible to pick up the soft persimmons and simply get rich."
"..."
After a stick of incense.
Shen Lanxin's maid came over, "Master Zhong, my lady is here to discuss something with you."
Bai Siyuan and the others looked at each other, cast an ambiguous look at Zhong Yan, and said with a smile, "Go, let's do what we want!"
Yu Qingyao nodded, "I'm here."
"Let's talk about the Colosseum another day."
Zhong Yan said something to Bai Siyuan, got up and walked away with the maid.
"May I have your name?"
"Slave Shen Hongtao, my lord, let me call you Xiaotao."
Zhong Yan turned his head and glanced at her, "You grew up at home?"
"Back to my aunt, yes, the servant entered Shen's house at the age of six, and followed the young lady at the age of nine. It has been thirteen years now..."
Zhong Yan nodded secretly. At the age of twenty-two, he has the fifth level of Qi Refining, and his aptitude is good.
"It is rumored that Miss Lan Xin has many male friends?"
The maid's complexion changed, and she smiled immediately: "Young master also said that it is a rumor, those rumors are all hearsay, my lady has a rough relationship, and the men who are pursued are all fancying her identity, they have no real feelings, and they have had a few experiences They were misrepresented by people with a heart..."
Zhong Yan smiled and stopped talking.
The two went all the way to a small courtyard in the sixth courtyard.
Entering the living room, Xiaotao said with a smile: "Grandpa, wait a moment, let's continue on our way. Miss is a little tired, she should be taking a bath."
After making tea, she bowed and saluted, and walked towards a room inside.
After a while, there was an exclamation: "Ah~ miss! Uncle, something happened to miss!"
Zhong Yan was suspicious, stepped inside quickly, and his eyelids jumped wildly.
There were two servant girls lying on the ground, while Shen Lanxin lay naked on her side with a blood hole between her eyebrows.
died!
