Chapter 250: Young Pavilion Master Xiancheng
It was late at night, and the lights were still on in Ruoshuiju Flower Hall.
"Ah Yue, although you and your father have just said this, I still want to ask, do you really want to inherit Kunwu City? Although Kunwu City is only a few hundred years old, The scale of the new city is comparable to that of the thousand-year-old cities Xuanjian City and Tianshui City. It involves various conflicts of interest and is complicated. You yourself have been killed once. Do you know the risks involved? "
Tang Yue solemnly said: "Mother, I know that both Xuanyuan Mountain and Wuji Mountain want to take Kunwu City into their hands, and my father still has the ambition to become the largest sect, so he has suppressed you over the years, but he is reluctant to let go. The benefits brought by Wuji Mountain are both necessary and desirable. I also know that the reason why my father values Tang Wan is to win Chu Tianshu's heart and coax her into marrying him. But let me tell you, my father and Chu Tian are married. It’s not certain who will be used by Shu.”
Shui Yingrou was surprised, and then smiled bitterly. Her daughter was so young, but she was so aware of the situation in the city. When she was eleven or twelve, she was still hunting birds with her senior brother. How can I figure this out when I pick flowers and wear them with my cousin.
She failed to protect her daughter, so A Yue had to grow up, protect herself, and even protect others.
This is because Shui Yingrou blames herself too much. She is too kind to both the original owner and the current Tang Yue. It’s just that Tang Yue had another life and his mind has long been mature. Just get used to relying on yourself.
"Okay, now that you have made up your mind, your grandfather and I will fully support you. In this way, even the Shui family will put aside their prejudices and fully support your rise to power. I will write a formal letter to them. Letter. "
The big family protects shortcomings and will be angry with Tang Yue because of the accident of the legitimate son, but it pays more attention to interests and will put aside hatred for the long-term interests.
“Thank you, mother, for helping me.”
Tang Yue is not as persistent as Tang Wenhua. He has no ambition to establish the largest sect. He only hopes that the people in the city can live a better life, the mortals can live and work in peace and contentment, and the monks can improve their cultivation and be closer to the great road. That would be great. Therefore, she is not afraid that Kunwu City will become a subsidiary city of Wuji Mountain in the future.
There will be many changes in the city within a few years, let alone thousands of years. No one can say with certainty whether it will rise or fall. It is more practical to do your best every day and focus on the present.
She has no sense of belonging or honor to the Tang family. Of course it is because of Tang Wenhua, but more because her soul comes from the modern society of the earth.
There has long been separated from the clan society. Everyone is proud to be a member of the society, rather than being proud to be a member of a certain family.
Besides, becoming an affiliated member does not mean that the people in the city become second-class citizens. It is just that the city lord has to pay an annual tribute every year. However, the benefits of being attached to a major faction are also obvious, Xuan Xuanjian City, the tributary city of Yuanshan, and Tianshui City, the tributary city of Wuji Mountain, are both much wealthier than Kunwu City.
"It's right for me to help you. You have decided to fight for the position, so let's start from now on. I just have something to give you."
Shui Yingrou looked solemn. , from now on, she will regard Tang Yue as the heir who has to shoulder important responsibilities, so naturally she will not just let her be happy like before.
Tang Yue asked curiously: "What is it?"
"I felt my realm was loosening three months ago, and I wanted to break through the steps and enter the transformation stage. It's just that the affairs in the city are busy. If I hand over Qionghua Pavilion must be deprived of a lot of power by Zixiao Mansion, so I have been suppressing it for a while. Recently, I can no longer suppress it. I want to retreat for two months to reach the realm. You have two months of rest. "
"Mother wants me to help you take charge of Qionghua Pavilion temporarily?"
"Yes, I will hand over the financial power of this city to you and ask your senior brother to help you. I hope that in two months, Qionghua Pavilion will have less power, and you can win the hearts and minds of the people in the city."
"Mother, I will live up to your great trust." Of course, the higher the cultivation level of my biological mother, the better.
In the original book, Shui Yingrou did not have the opportunity to advance to become a god, so when Chu Tianshu retaliated, she had no power to parry. If she had developed the cultivation of a god, not only Chu Tianshu, but also other Xiaoxiao If you want to attack her, you have to think twice.
"Are you sure you can do it? You just made a bold statement. If you want to win the position of city lord, Palace Master Cao has to find a way to deal with you. Now he has to manage Qionghua Pavilion for two months, which is equivalent to giving him A good opportunity to frame you. "
Shui Yingrou is still a little worried. After all, her daughter is too young. Although she has learned a lot for some reason, she has too little experience in the world.
Tang Yue held Shui Yingrou's hand and said, "Mother, you'd better go into retreat now. You have reached the point where you have to retreat. You cannot delay this matter any longer, otherwise it will damage your Taoism. Heart, this is one of them. They are not prepared enough within two months and cannot carry out their poisonous plan. By the time they are ready, you are already a cultivator. With the deterrent, it will be even harder to harm me. This is another. 2. "You're right." Shui Yingrou comforted her heart, and before she knew it, her daughter was already someone who could help her.
"Besides, it's not necessarily whose chance it is." Tang Yue is confident in herself. There are many people who will help her, and she has many spiritual stones in her hands. She can make great efforts to help her. Miracles are still possible.
Besides, if you can't manage her well, you can still use her young age as an excuse, which is better than Chu Tianshu who has never managed anything for a day.
The West Courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion and the Zixiao Mansion also stayed up all night.
"Mother, she actually wants to compete for the position of Young City Lord. What should I do? Will I lose everything?" Tang Wan's expression showed fear and worry that he had not seen for many years, which made Zhuang Qiaohui feel a pain in his heart.
She vowed many years ago that her daughter would not lose to any young lady from a wealthy family. For this reason, she flattered and deliberately pleased not only the city lord, but also Zixiao Mansion and Xuanyuan Mountain.
After years of painstaking planning, she poisoned the mistress, gave spiritual stones and treasures, and even stole things from the city lord's palace...
But today, the illusion she created was completely shattered, Tang Yue Dare to say openly that she wants to be the heir, but her Wan'er has no identity and status to say such a thing.
Wan'er can only rely on her marriage to gain status, and in the future she can only count on her son to bring her glory.
In fact, her plan was very good. Letting Tang Wan marry a promising man and use some resources was the best she could think of.
It's just that others have more choices than the mother and son from the beginning.
Although this matter is very unfair, the mother and daughter did not think about achieving fairness, but joined in the unfair status game. There is nothing to be pitiful about.
Zhuang Qiaohui promised her daughter: "Don't worry, I will find a way. I will find a way now. This Kunwu City will definitely be yours."
Over at Zixiao Mansion, The master of the palace, Cao Yanjun, had not been able to control his emotions like today for a long time and broke a cup.
"That bitch bullied me to this point because of her connections."
At the banquet, Kunwu Patriarch and Duan Yingda were suppressing him, but he couldn't even utter a word of objection. From tomorrow on, Tang Yue may The news of becoming the young city lord of Kunwu City will spread throughout the Liuzhou Continent.
In this way, Qionghua Pavilion will gradually put pressure on Zixiao Mansion, and he will be inferior to women. How can he endure it.
Palace Master Cao also has other ambitions. He is not satisfied with being just a palace master, but now that his name is not justified, he needs to plan carefully.
Originally, his little idea of suppressing Shui Yingrou through Tang Wenhua was like a fish in water. The Zixiao Mansion had a tendency to overpower the City Lord's Mansion. The people in the city would rather offend the City Lord's Mansion than Zixiao Mansion.
If Chu Tianshu, a man with a foreign surname, becomes the city lord, he will inevitably rely on him to win over people's hearts. Then he will have more and more power, and he may be able to swallow up the entire city.
If Tang Yue really becomes the city lord, then with the help of Wuji Mountain, she will gradually seize the power from him, and may even expel him from the city. In this way, many years of hard work will be destroyed in one day. He was unwilling to give in...
The next day, Qionghua Pavilion publicly announced something that shocked the people in the city: Mrs. Shui was going to retreat to the realm, and she handed over Qionghua Pavilion to her daughter Tang Yue to take charge of it. , and was given the title of "Young Pavilion Master".
