Chapter 54 54. The Merry Stepmother of the Demon Cult Leader (24)

The sky was bright, and the small city of Shao was crowded with people everywhere.

Xiao Lian stood upstairs and opened the window, looking at the black heads below, she was very puzzled.

"How can this place accommodate so many people? Why not put it in Kyoto?"

How wide is that place.

Before Cheng Yueshu could answer, Shao Zhuolin sneered.

"No brains, there are so many martial arts practitioners under the emperor's feet, even the imperial guards may not be able to stop them, who dares to let everyone into the city?"

Xiao Lian snorted angrily, but she just sighed casually, is Shao Zhuolin guilty of speaking rudely?

But he was always like this, he was cold to everyone except the leader, not to mention that the two had enmity, and she was too lazy to argue with Shao Zhuolin.

Cheng Yueshu said slowly: "Shaocheng is not far from the capital, and it takes half a day to get there quickly. Shangguan Gouyue puts the location of the martial arts competition here. Does the emperor have no grudges in his heart?"

Shao Zhuolin immediately said: "What A Niang said is that I am afraid that the Shangguan Gou Yue has other intentions, and it is also a test for the superior. If it succeeds this time, who knows if I will dare to put it on the Golden Luan Hall next time."

Xiaolian: "..."

Even if Madam said that the sun will come out from the west tomorrow, Shao Zhuolin would probably nod, right?

The shoulder-to-shoulder crowd came all the way to the center of Shaocheng, where a huge martial arts platform had been set up long ago, and the four pillars were painted red, which was extremely eye-catching.

Sheds were set up below, and the status was as high as that of Shangguan Gou Yue, so naturally they were in the front, and those who could have a position in the back were basically famous names in the Jianghu.

Cheng Yueshu also noticed that sitting next to Shangguan Gouyue was a man in a brocade robe, with a refined appearance and good temperament, covering half of his face with a fan, talking with Shangguan Gouyue in a low voice.

Xiao Lian followed the leader's gaze and frowned.

"This guy is so smart, I can't see his mouth."

With Cheng Yueshu by her side, Xiao Lian is not only smart, but also can read lips.

Shangguan Gouyue was keenly aware of the gaze, turned his head and found Cheng Yueshu and the others, paused, and soon stood up with a smile on his face.

"Oh, isn't this Mrs. Cheng?"

As Shangguan Gouyue came over in person, the man beside him just glanced casually at first, but when it landed on Cheng Yueshu's face, he couldn't help squinting his eyes carefully, and got up abruptly.

Shangguan Gouyue raised his eyebrows slightly after realizing this, and immediately introduced.

"Third Young Master, this is Mrs. Cheng, the leader of the Blood Clothes Sect."

The closer he got, the more amazed the man felt, and he couldn't help but scrutinize Cheng Yueshu from top to bottom, his eyes were extremely aggressive.

"Mrs. Cheng is truly magnificent, why is your name not on the list of beauties?"

Shao Zhuolin's eyes turned cold, and he quietly pressed the hilt of his sword with his palm, but Cheng Yueshu gave him a light glance, so he had no choice but to suppress his anger.

Cheng Yueshu smiled unexpectedly good-naturedly: "Young master's praise, Shangguan leader's daughter is the one who tops the list of beauties."

The third young master rubbed his chin, and looked at Shangguan Gouyue as if to blame.

"It's Brother Shangguan's fault. He always hides that girl, as if afraid of being picked up by wolves."

This was said frivolously and presumptuously, but Shangguan Gouyue just laughed along with him.

"That girl is used to wildness, so it's hard for her to enter the elegant hall, for fear of dirtying the eyes of the third young master."

In his heart, he scolded Cheng Yueshu and the others countless times. He originally planned to groom his daughter well and find a grand opportunity to introduce her to the host, but Cheng Yueshu snatched the great opportunity.

Shao Zhuolin used to bark his teeth at all the men who approached Madam Cheng like a vicious dog, but now he is so obedient, which forced another layer of Shangguan Gouyue's calculations to fail.

Now Xiao Lian couldn't see anything wrong, Shangguan Gouyue was so obedient?

Seeing Mrs. Cheng's alienated appearance, the third son cleared his throat and lowered his voice.

"This king's private visit, I didn't expect to meet such a beautiful woman, it's really lucky for three lives."

Having said all this, Shangguan Gouyue had no choice but to recommend him again.

"This is His Royal Highness King Xian."

Both Xiaolian and Shao Zhuolin were taken aback, Cheng Yueshu also pretended to be surprised and looked at the second male lead in the plot.

"The third son was originally the third prince, forgive me for being rude."

The virtuous king smiled and said: "This king is just visiting privately in disguise, so there is no need to be polite."

As he said that, he wanted to touch Cheng Yueshu's hand: "Madam Cheng is also here to see the martial arts competition, why don't you sit beside me?"

The fire of jealousy gnawed at Shao Zhuolin like a poisonous snake, he wished he could slash this shameless thing with his sword.

But he can't, absolutely can't destroy A Niang's plan.

Cheng Yueshu raised her hand and stroked her hair, "Craftsman's status is humble, how can he be worthy of sitting with a royal noble like His Highness the Wise King?"

While speaking humble words, his hands just avoided it.

King Xian's eyes were deep, and he felt more interesting.

There are many gentle and respectful women, but few roses with thorns.

The man laughed: "Mrs. Cheng came from the snow-capped mountains. She should be as noble as a snow lotus. Since she doesn't want to sit beside me, I won't force her."

Shangguan Gouyue could see that His Royal Highness the Xian Wang deliberately wanted to grind Cheng Yueshu's temper, and immediately said: "It's a pity that this martial arts competition is in such a hurry that there is not enough space left, so we can only trouble Mrs. Cheng to stand and watch the martial arts gone."

The virtuous king chuckled: "I am a person who cherishes flowers, and I can't bear the beauty to be exposed to the scorching sun. If Mrs. Cheng changes her mind, she can come to me at any time."

The people around heard it clearly, and immediately aimed at Cheng Yueshu with their eyes watching the show.

This woman really doesn't know how to flatter her, even the leader of the Shangguan alliance should be careful with her, but she still has to play tricks. Anyway, she has been married before, pretending to be a big girl.

At this moment, a calling sound came from not far away.

"Madam Cheng is here, but let me find it easily. I just asked my servants to prepare refreshments, and I just wait for your favor."

King Xian snorted coldly and frowned, wanting to see who would dare to speak at such a time.

As soon as he turned his head, his eyes were almost blinded.

Xu Yuanzhe changed his outfit again today, but he was still dressed as a nouveau riche. The hair crown made of pure gold was inlaid with a baby's fist-sized oriental bead. The mirror-like shell reflected the sunlight, making his head shine like a light bulb. Bright.

Even Cheng Yueshu couldn't help the corners of his mouth twitching, it was hard for him to understand this person's aesthetics.

Both Shangguan Gouyue and Xian Wang recognized the identity of the person in front of them, and it was the famous young master of Tianji Pavilion.

Tianji Pavilion is not only an intelligence agency, but also a wealthy country, otherwise it would not have such a rich source of information channels.

Therefore, even the virtuous king will not easily offend the other party.

Xu Yuanzhe unfolded another fan with jade bones all over his body, and fanned Cheng Yueshu.

"Madam Cheng, please."

As he spoke, he secretly winked at Cheng Yueshu.

We missionaries are to support our own people!

Seeing the attitude of the young master of Tianji Pavilion, everyone was in an uproar, and the way they looked at Cheng Yueshu changed suddenly.
