Chapter 22, City Lord's Mansion, enjoy the scenery
. It was not until outside the inn that Huaxiang realized how great the honor he had. There were at least hundreds of rows of city guards. Seeing the lineup Huaxiang's face was slightly cold, but she didn't care at all. She walked out straight away. The middle-aged man in the official robe immediately signaled, and a black horse was immediately led up.
"Sir, please get on the horse." The middle-aged man in the robe said with a smile. Seeing Hua Xiang under the more than 100 well-trained city guards, he remained calm and looked more respectful to Hua Xiang at this time. These hundreds of middle-aged man in the city guards only knew that there were the city guards in the Ming Dynasty, but in fact they were the city guards themselves, several times stronger than the city guards. They were all first-class warriors, including a few early acquired warriors, who specifically served for the city lord to perform some secret tasks. The murderous aura brewed in them was that his cultivation level in the middle acquired period was also standing tall, and Hua Xiang had no reaction at all. In the hearts of the middle-aged man, Hua Xiang had already identified Hua Xiang as one of the top acquired masters. And it might be the son of a certain aristocratic family. Only those aristocratic families can cultivate such young and outstanding figures.
"Yes." Hua Xiang turned over the horse and murmured softly: "Let's lead the way." The middle-aged man and a few nearby guards immediately turned over the horses. A group of people drove towards the city lord's mansion, attracting waves of attention from passers-by.
When riding on the horse, Huaxiang couldn't help feeling awkward. After all, this was the first time he rode a horse in his life. Looking at the look of the people around him looking up, Huaxiang couldn't help feeling relieved. He was bullied since childhood, making Huaxiang's heart so strong as iron. However, this kind of human feeling made Huaxiang still enjoy it.
After calming down, Huaxiang shook her head and said in her heart: "Enjoyment and wealth are not only a passing cloud. What I want is not these." Then she looked cold and didn't look around, and drove towards the city lord's mansion.
Half an hour later, a mansion of a square and a half mile appeared in front of Huaxiang. The three big characters of the city lord's mansion were shiny, indicating that the powerful and powerful mansions dared not infringe on it.
At the door, the two two-tall stone lions all showed the majesty of the owner of the mansion. When a group of hundreds of people rode over, the guards at the door immediately came out to greet them.
"Sir, here." The middle-aged man in the robe immediately dismounted, gave instructions to several people, and then said to Huaxiang. Several servants immediately ran in and informed him.
"Yes." Huaxiang also dismounted and looked at the mansion sideways. Although it was not as good as the Xiao family, it was one of the best in Tiannan Kingdom, so Huaxiang was not surprised.
Seeing Huaxiang's expression, the middle-aged man in the official robe was even more certain that Huaxiang was a child of a certain aristocratic family. Only those children of aristocratic families would feel strange when they saw such a mansion. If Huaxiang knew what Huaxiang thought about it, Huaxiang would definitely sneer, because Huaxiang was a child of aristocratic family and was also a child of the Xiao family, the largest family in the Xiandu Kingdom. However, Huaxiang never took it proud of it, but was ashamed of the next. In Huaxiang's heart, the things related to the Xiao family were all bad.
In the hall of the mansion, Huaxiang sat in the guest seat with a cold expression and savored the unknown tea. The middle-aged man in the official robe brought Huaxiang in and went down. He probably discussed something with the city lord, so he could smooth things over. Huaxiang didn't care at all. As the saying goes, a skilled man is brave, even if he is in the face of strength, he must bow his head.
After half a salary, a short, fat old man with a blushing face walked in. Seeing Huaxiang genuine, he smiled and said, "The distinguished guest is here, the distinguished guest is here. I don't care about the hospitality of the mansion, so please forgive me." After that, he sat straight on the host seat. Seeing Huaxiang so young, he remembered something, and his doubts disappeared a little.
"You invited me here, that city lord?" Hua Xiang said bluntly when he heard the city lord's words. From the first glance, Hua Xiang had no favors at all.
"Well, I am not talented, it is Liu Wanfang, the city lord of Nanjun City." Hua Xiang's words made the city lord a little angry, but when he thought of what the No. 1 master in his mansion, the nominal inspector, actually the general manager of the guards, said to him, the city lord Liu felt calm. Thinking about it, the children of the aristocratic families all had a sense of arrogance, so he continued: "I have a servant told Jubaozhai that there were several masterpieces of famous masters. I just happened to be quite fond of this poetry and painting, so I bought it and asked around. I found out that it was sold by the young master, so I asked the young master to come over and talk about it. Please forgive me for the arrogant things."
"Hmph, if my performance and strength don't make you afraid, you might just put me in jail." Hua Xiang muttered in her heart, but said, "Oh, I didn't expect that the city lord is also proficient in this."
"I dare not, I dare not, I just have a little bit of the fur." Lord Liu couldn't help but say modestly: "I don't know that the young master, out of that aristocratic family, actually made such a big deal."
"Haha, aristocratic family? The tail of the old fox finally leaked out. It seems that you thought I was a child of aristocratic family. Since that's the case... Huaxiang muttered in her heart and replied with a smile: "Xiandu Kingdom, Hua family, don't know if the city lord knows it."
"Xiandu Kingdom, Hua Family? I know, I have heard of Daming for a long time, and Daming for a long time." When I heard the Hua family in Huaxiang's mouth, the city lord couldn't help but start to wonder: "Hua Family, is there no such a family in Xiandu Kingdom? Is it just rising? But seeing his behavior and behavior doesn't seem to be fooled by me. Send someone to check it out carefully. If there is no Hua Family, hum, even if you have high martial arts skills, you will be trapped in my hands."
"Young Master Hua came from the Xiandu Kingdom, so I'm afraid it's a waste of time. If you don't dislike me, you'll stay in Liu's mansion for a few days. Liu is quite aware of the superficiality of poetry and painting. I happen to have a few paintings here, so I invite Mr. Hua to appreciate it."
Hearing this, Huaxiang didn't know what the idea of Lord Liu Cheng was, and couldn't help but say in his heart: "If I were really a mortal warrior, would I be afraid that I would fall into your hands this time? Unfortunately, I am a cultivator now."
"Since the city lord is inviting you, I dare not refuse to obey. Let's disturb you here for a few days." Huaxiang stood up and replied with a smile. City Lord Liu was overjoyed when he heard Huaxiang's words, and then ordered his servants to arrange a room for Huaxiang.
When Huaxiang entered the guest room, Lord Liu immediately changed his smile, his face was cold, and then he said to himself: "Hua Family? Is it really there, someone is here."
Following Liu Wanfang's words, a middle-aged man in the robe immediately trotted up and bowed and said, "My lord, what are you asking?" It was obviously the inspector who welcomed Hua Xiang into the mansion.
"Well, please send someone to check immediately to see if there are any families with the Hua surname in Xiandu." Liu Wan said expressionlessly.
"Xiandu Kingdom? Is that gentleman from Xiandu Kingdom?" The middle-aged man in the official robe still called Huaxiang Mr., which shows his fear of Huaxiang.
"Well, it seems that there is no Hua family in our information. It would be fine if it was a newly emerging aristocratic family. If he was really a thief, hum." Lord Liu's face turned cold: "I know you are afraid of his strength. If there is no Hua family, since he dares to come, I will have a way to let him go but not return."
Hearing the city lord's words, the middle-aged man's face changed and he immediately calmed down because he knew that if there was no Hua family, the city lord would use his trump card to deal with such a person.
"Yes, I'll do it now." Then he turned around and walked out the door, leaving Lord Liu alone, as if he was thinking about something.
At this time, Huaxiang was in the room. Huaxiang, who had just realized what Lord Liu said, was heard by Huaxiang, who was spiritually conscious, and Huaxiang was sweating profusely and dizzy. The distance was too far just now, so Huaxiang could only barely use the spiritually distance to eavesdrop.
"The trump card, I want to see what kind of trump card you, a little Nanjun city lord, will you still kill me, a cultivator? Besides, it will take at least half a month to get back from the Immortal Capital Kingdom to find out the news. It will still be a question whether I am here or not." Hua Xiang couldn't help but mutter to herself, and then began to meditate.
For a few days, Huaxiang and Lord Liu were like friends, and they were inseparable from each other and recited poems. However, Huaxiang knew that the more good Lord Liu pretended to be a good person, the deeper his cunning became. Therefore, Huaxiang was also happy and comfortable. He would never let go of any good things, and he would not be polite to eat and drink what he should drink, and to do the best, which almost gave Lord Liu the idea of suspicion. Only the children of aristocratic families would be so luxurious.
