Chapter 430: Candidates for marriage, gossip in restaurants (please vote for me~)
The letter was sent by Gu Qingchan. The handwriting was beautiful, yet elegant, and exuded a different kind of softness.
The letter is very long, but in summary it only mentions two things.
First, congratulations to Chen Ping'an for being promoted to the position of deputy governor of Beicang, and attached a lot of information about the important town of Beicang. This information was all obtained through the channels of the Gu family. The context is clear and the information is comprehensive. It is far more detailed than what Chen Ping'an knew before.
Secondly, Gu Qingchan mentioned in the letter that the candidate for the Gu family's marriage has been decided. After Chen Ping'an takes over Beicang and stabilizes the overall situation, he will come to Canglong Prefecture City at the right time to discuss the details of the marriage.
"Who has been chosen? The Gu family is quite fast!" A trace of surprise flashed in Chen Ping'an's eyes.
Although the marriage of the Gu family had been mentioned for a long time, the tone changed midway. Plus other things, he thought it would take some time for the Gu family to decide on the candidate.
However, if you think about it carefully, the Gu family's move is quite reasonable. As his talent has become more and more obvious recently, the Gu family's support for him has also increased day by day. Under such circumstances, the Gu family naturally hopes to tie him into the chariot as soon as possible and truly take up his real identity.
"Who could it be?" Chen Ping'an's eyes flashed with curiosity.
With the talent he has shown now, even if the Gu family is the number one family in Canglong Province, the candidates selected for marriage will never be ordinary. Last but not least, a core legitimate daughter cannot escape!
Chen Pingan thought for a moment, and the surprise in his eyes dissipated instantly.
Although he was a little curious about his marriage partner, that was the extent of his curiosity. No matter who the Gu family chooses, they will still have to pass his test. If he is not satisfied, then just don’t mention the marriage!
This was something Gu Qingchan had promised him back then! With Gu Qingchan's current momentum, she probably has a certain say in the Gu family.
Speaking of Gu Qingchan, several pictures emerged in Chen Pingan's mind.
The jade body is laid out horizontally, showing the charm. And the dignified and elegant behind, the elegance is unrivaled
"This girl doll" Chen Pingan chuckled, shook his head, and stopped thinking.
Buzz~
The aura flashes and the true energy flows.
With Chen Ping'an's current level of martial arts and being in different frames, it is not difficult to hide his training from Fan Zhengheng.
If he wanted to, he could easily hide it even from an ordinary master. Only with the presence of the master in the middle stage of Yuheng, he needs to restrain himself.
+1!
The carriage drove slowly, and the scenery along the way receded continuously. Chen Pingan sat cross-legged and practiced hard.
There are dozens of cities in Liyang County, and Liyang County City is definitely the core.
In recent days, Liyang County has become particularly festive and lively, sweeping away the decline that had been ravaged by all kinds of demons. The county town was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and there was laughter and laughter. From time to time, patrolling officers from the Zhenfu Division could be seen.
As the promotion ceremony approaches, Liyang County has already been patrolled all over the city, and it is extremely tight. If there are blind people who come out to cause trouble on such occasions, even if they do not suffer any real losses afterwards, the face of Liyang Zhenfusi will be greatly lost.
The death of the previous commander-in-chief had greatly reduced the prestige of the Liyang Zhenfu Division. At this critical moment, we cannot let a similar situation happen again.
As a veteran pseudo-grandmaster, Xue Mingde had previously served as the commander of Fusi Capital in Qiyun Town, so he had extremely deep connections. In his promotion ceremony, all parties were willing to sell face.
Since half a month ago, representatives of powerful forces have been arriving in Liyang County, especially to participate in Xue Mingde's promotion ceremony. For example, Xue Mingde was previously in charge of Qiyun County, and there were many forces coming.
“What a big scene!”
"Master Xue's promotion ceremony can't be too grand!"
"So many big shots!"
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't hit the noble person. If you do, no one can save you!"
"Yes yes yes"
"."
There were a lot of discussions in every Yayuan restaurant and tea house in Liyang County. The topics discussed were basically inseparable from Master Xue's recent promotion ceremony.
"I heard that Mr. Chen will also come this time."
"Master Chen, which Master Chen!"
"That one from Beicang!"
"Beicang? Oh, you mean Mangdao Chen Pingan!"
“Shhh, I’m going to kill you, how dare you call me by your name!”
"Hehe. He's not here right now. If he were here, how dare I say that!"
In a high-standard restaurant, several well-dressed men sat around and talked with each other.
"Speaking of which, has Mangdao Chen Ping'an already entered the city?"
"We have entered the city! Mr. Xue personally greeted us at that time!?"
"Master Xue personally greets you?"
"Of course! Mangdao Chen Ping'an is in charge of Beicang and has a high position. When he comes to Liyang, Mr. Xue will personally welcome him. Let me tell you, the commander-in-chief of Fusi in Weishui Town was also there at that time, but Mr. Xue Most of his energy was focused on Mang Dao Chen Ping'an, but he ignored the commander of Weishui City!"
"Ignore? No way. Although Mangdao Chen Ping'an has a high status, Mr. Xue has been in a high position for many years and has a good grasp of the scale. He should not do anything that favors one over another."
When someone asked this question, the short-bearded man who spoke before had a proud smile on his face.
"Hehe. You don't know anything about this. Let me tell you, it's wonderful! At that time, Mangdao Chen Ping had just arrived and before entering the city, he asked Mr. Xue in public that he came rashly before the invitation arrived. Mr. Xue, don’t be surprised!”
"So strong? What did Mr. Xue say?"
"Want to hear it?"
"Of course!"
"You paid for this drink!"
"No problem! But I just want to ask, how do you know so clearly? Were you there?"
"Yeah! I'm there!"
"So you saw Mangdao Chen Ping'an?"
"That's for sure!"
"Tell me, tell me, what does he look like? Is he the rumored nine-foot-tall, burly-backed, ferocious-looking man who wants to bite people?"
"Where did you hear this?"
"Don't blame me, tell me quickly!"
"You just asked me what Mr. Xue said, and now you ask me this again, what do you want to hear?"
"Listen to both!"
"Then please give me two meals!"
"You"
"."
The other people sitting in the restaurant were also very interested in what they were talking about, and they all listened carefully with their ears perked up. Not far away from them, sitting by the window, was a handsome young man. His eyes were deep and his expression was calm. There were several plates of exquisite pastries and a pot of fine tea in front of him.
"Let me tell you, although Mang Dao Chen Ping'an had the nickname Mang King Kong before, he was not a burly man with an iron tower. On the contrary, he was a handsome young man. If so many big shots weren't present, he would have shouted in unison , I almost thought it was a mistake!”
The sound in his ears continued. Chen Pingan picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The scene not long ago appeared in his mind.
Liyang County and Weishui County are bordering each other. But the distance from Weishui County City to Liyang County City is really not close. Fortunately, they were all accomplished martial arts masters, so they didn't need to rest too much, and it didn't take much time to travel quickly.
Even before they arrived at Liyang County, someone had gone over to check on them. In this way, it happened that when they arrived, Xue Mingde was waiting outside the city gate early.
Xue Mingde is tall and looks calm and intimidating. But he was waiting outside the city with a smile on his face and a humble expression.
Chen Pingan and others had just arrived, and he welcomed them loudly.
"Master Chen, Master Fan, it is a great honor for Mr. Xue to come here."
Behind Xue Mingde, a group of middle and high-level officials from the Zhenfu Division also responded and greeted him respectfully. The standard of courtesy is extremely high.
But in that scene, Chen Ping'an asked that question. Mr. Xue shouldn't be surprised if he came rashly before the invitation arrived.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
Although Chen Pingan's expression was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes.
Xue Mingde cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Master Chen is the Fusi of Liyang Town. I am a distinguished guest sincerely invited by Xue. How could he not have an invitation?"
"Oh?" Chen Ping'an's eyebrows flashed, and he immediately threw out an official invitation letter.
"If Mr. Xue doesn't believe it, you can take a look and see if Chen's name is on this invitation."
The smile on Xue Mingde's face froze, and he took the official invitation letter with a wave of his hand.
Fan Zhengheng on the side looked embarrassed. This official invitation letter was the first one sent by Liyang Town Fusi. Before leaving, Chen Pingan took it from his hand. At that time, he was still thinking about what Chen Ping'an wanted the official invitation letter for, but he never thought that it would be used like this.
Xue Mingde quickly glanced at it a few times, his face gradually darkened and he looked angry.
"You really don't have the name of Mr. Chen! The people below dare to neglect their duties despite Xue's repeated instructions. Investigate! We must investigate to the end! I want to see who is responsible for such a big mistake!"
< br>
After Xue Mingde scolded a few words, a smile appeared on his face again
"Master Chen, please don't take offense to the inability of my subordinates to do things well. Xue will definitely give Master Chen an explanation for this matter."
At the gate of Liyang County, Xue Mingde had a smile on his face and a humble attitude, not at all like the rumored temperament.
Fan Zhengheng stood aside and stared blankly.
Xue Mingde is a direct descendant of the Xue family. He became famous at a young age and has an arrogant personality. He has rarely suffered any losses along the way.
The moment Chen Pingan took out the official invitation letter, he thought there would be a fight between the two.
As a result, Xue Mingde bowed his head.
Xue Mingde has the Xue family as his backer and is a tyrannical pseudo-guru himself, far superior to him in terms of combat power and background. But in front of Chen Pingan, he could only stay humble and petty!
Chen Ping'an didn't know the exclamation in Fan Zhengheng's heart. All I know is that the matter was finally settled with Xue Mingde bowing his head in submission.
Many people in Liyang County witnessed Xue Mingde bowing his head. Chen Ping'an sat high on the carriage, flying freely, and entered Liyang County City in awe of everyone.
Chen Pingan sat by the window, quietly sipping tea and tasting pastries from time to time. The pastries in this restaurant taste pretty good, and Chen Pingan is quite satisfied. In his impression, only the pastries from Qingya House in Beicang Town were slightly better.
"Let me tell you, Mr. Xue's face was red and blue at that time. But due to the power of the Mang Dao, he finally put down his face and bowed his head in submission! The Mang Dao sat high on the frame of the carriage, and the sword was straddling it horizontally. That posture. It’s really hard to describe in words.”
"Lack of language, extremely lacking, Brother Lu! Let me come!
The young man is bold and ambitious, riding high on the chariot and in a prison.
Hengdao sits astride a tiger, with thunder waves hidden between his brows.
Duke Xue's complexion turned red and white, and his heart shook under the pressure.
It was difficult to control himself in front of everyone, so he finally lowered his head to calm down.
The armor flashes and reflects the sun, and the horse's hooves crush the dust.
The young man's arrogance soared to the sky, and his reckless sword power was famous in the sky.
The horizontal sword makes the mountains and rivers strong, and the anger swallows thousands of miles like the roar of a tiger.
The feat that shocked Canglong Ming, and the ambition will never wither. ”
"What a poem, what a poem, Brother Wang! I never thought you had such talent!?"
"That's nature."
"The description of Mang Dao is quite appropriate, this is how it feels!"
"."
The compliments on the side continued, and their words were full of praise for Mang Dao. In the middle of the process, someone reminded me that there were many people in this restaurant, and they called Mr. Mangdao Chen by his name. Although the man who spoke felt a little weak in his heart, he showed no fear on his face.
"I don't dare to say it in front of Chen Ping'an, the reckless swordsman, and why don't I dare to say it in this restaurant!"
Everyone laughed when they heard this and clapped their hands in praise. "Master Lu, you are so brave!"
Seeing the crowd booing, the smile on the face of the man named Lu became brighter and brighter, and there was a hint of pride in his heart, as if he was no longer so guilty.
However, he did not remain in this situation for long, and the noisy voices around him suddenly dropped until they were completely silent.
The man surnamed Lu turned around and his eyes were instantly attracted by the majestic figure coming up the stairs of the restaurant. This was a tall man with a door panel as strong as a mountain. Every step made the stairs creak, as if even the air was making way for him. His body is broad, like a male bear ready to attack, his palms are like cattail fans, and each finger is thick and powerful, like ancient pine and cypress branches, revealing a frightening sense of power.
The man surnamed Lu looked shocked. It was not only him who was shocked, but also his friends who were discussing with him just now.
The big man walked like a dragon and a tiger with a steady and powerful pace, and his sharp eyes scanned the surroundings. Wherever they went, the crowd lowered their heads involuntarily, for fear of causing any trouble. But there were also some brave people who secretly observed the big man with a hint of curiosity in their eyes.
The big man's glance suddenly stopped. There happened to be a person standing where he was. The moment his eyes fell, the man's whole body felt bad. His face was pale, his legs were trembling, and he looked at a loss.
"It's over! Something happened!"
He wailed in his heart and regretted endlessly. If he had known this, he might as well have bowed his head and settled the matter.
Just when he was frightened, a humble smile appeared on the big man's face. Putting this smile together with his mountain-like majestic body, it feels inconsistent no matter how you look at it.
Everyone was dumbfounded and looked dazed.
While everyone was stunned, the big man passed the man, walked a few steps to a seat by the window, and bowed.
"My lord."
Everyone's eyes turned there, and they saw a rich and handsome young man sitting by the window. His face was indifferent, and he was drinking tea leisurely.
What's going on?
