It is neither a new year nor a holiday, but the streets and alleys of Kunwu City are decorated with colorful decorations, red lanterns, and the plaques at the city gates have been repainted, creating a joyful scene.
The businessman from out of town didn't understand and asked the waiter who served the food, "I heard that the city lord's wife had an accident some time ago and she was unconscious. Why does it seem like there is a happy event in the city recently? Is the city lord's wife awake?" ”
The waiter’s face also looked strange for a moment, but it quickly returned to a welcoming smile.
"My guest does not know that today will hold the young city lord's succession ceremony. It is also the wedding of the young city lord and the city lord's daughter, so we gather in the city to celebrate."
"In the evening. The celebration team will send out spiritual fruits, and guests can join in the fun and receive some fruits to cheer up."
The businessman has a strict family style. Hearing this, he frowned, "The city lord's wife has not yet. "How can you arrange a wedding in such a grand way?"
He didn't dare to talk about the city lord, so he talked about the bride, "Especially the city lord's daughter, how can she agree to get married at this time when her mother is unconscious?" "
The waiter's smile was forced, and he explained, "The one who got married is the eldest lady, not the madam's biological daughter."
The businessman is well-informed and can do it in just one sentence. It reminds me of the dirty things of those big leisure families.
"Does the wife of the city lord have any biological children?" he asked.
"My wife has a daughter. I heard that she was abducted by the demon clan and taken to the demon world. Now her life and death are unknown." The waiter in the shop sounded a little regretful.
He has never met this second young lady in person, but he once took his mother to the free medical clinic in the city, which she set up, and he was considered a favor.
Every year, we can also receive warm clothes distributed by the second lady to the poor.
When a good person ends up like this, anyone will feel a little unfair in their heart.
The businessman sighed and continued to eat his meal.
The city lord's mansion is also busy, preparing for the evening ceremony and wedding banquet.
"Have you found Wei Hongyun?" The city lord Tang Wenhua looked gloomy and had a secret conversation with Chu Tianshu in the study.
“We haven’t found it yet. Master Cao of Zixiao Mansion has gone out to look for it in person. I believe we will find it soon.”
Chu Tianshu’s expression was dull, and he couldn’t tell that he was the one today. Late protagonist.
Become the young city lord of Kunwu City and marry the city lord’s daughter.
Succeed in success and have a beautiful woman in your arms.
“We must find him. The old thief came too fast. Before I could get the key to the treasury from that bitch, we couldn’t touch 80% of the money in Kunwu City.”
"If we can't get these, Kunwu City will not be able to survive this year."
Tang Wenhua looked gloomy. He only focused on attacking Shui Yingrou, but he didn't expect that the other party had already started to attack him. In order to be on guard, the treasury added a very strong closing formation.
Without the treasury key, he can't get in or get the treasury property.
Without the seals of the Master and Young Master of Qionghua Pavilion, he would not be able to touch the businesses opened by Shui Yingrou and Tang Yue.
He can only take over the city's tax revenue this year, but now is not the tax collection season, and he will not get any money.
Today's ceremony and wedding banquet were only managed by him using money from his own private treasury.
Hearing this, Chu Tianshu’s expression became fierce, “The city lord should not have handed over all the financial power in the city to his wife.”
Tang Wenhua was anxious in his heart and did not hear Chu Tianshu’s expression. Tianshu complained in his words and replied: "She has Wuji Mountain behind her, and she also has her own power in the city. I was under pressure and had to hand over the financial power to her."
He did not say the reason why he handed over the financial power in the first place. He was eager to expand Kunwu City. The cost was too high and he was unwilling to exploit the Kunwu mine too much, so he thought of letting Shui Yingrou use her dowry to subsidize it.
Chu Tianshu felt contempt in his heart, but it didn't show on his face, "Father-in-law, don't worry, if you really can't open the treasury, I can go back to Xuanyuan Mountain and ask Master for help."
"He I will ask the master of weapon refining from the mountain to help us open the treasury."
Tang Wenhua calmed down and said, "Tian Shu, the wisest thing I have done in my life is to accept you as my disciple. There is a successor in our city."
"My heart will feel at ease when you take over the position of city lord tonight and marry Wan'er."
He is proud of his own plan. It's so seamless.
Tang Yue was kidnapped to the Demon Realm and was probably dead.
Even if she doesn't die, she is a woman who has been humiliated in the demon world, and there is no way she can come back to seize the position of Young City Lord.
While Shui Yingrou was worried about Tang Yue's fall into the demon world, he tricked her out of the city and administered a strange poison that required Zhulong's reverse scales on his chest to cure it, which meant there was no cure. The old man Shui Xuanying always doted on Shui Yingrou, so he went to the underworld to get the medicine, seeking his own death.
At this time, the position of Young City Lord Tianshu has been decided, and with the help of Xuanyuan Mountain, Wuji Mountain has no reason to object.
Even if Shui Xuanying is lucky enough to come back alive, Tian Shu has become the young city lord and he is unable to change.
"It's just Shennong Pavilion and Baopu Pavilion. They have been closed for the past half month and will not attend tonight's banquet." Chu Tianshu frowned.
Being like this is obviously an expression of opposition through silence.
Tang Wenhua said fiercely: "Do they still remember that I am the city lord of Kunwu City? When the situation stabilizes, I will not let them go!"
After the conversation, Chu Tianshu followed When I came out of the study, I wanted to see Tang Wan.
Passing by Dongyuan, there is a faint colored light in the sky. This is the light of the protective formation.
Chu Tianshu frowned. As a wife, Shui Yingrou was really unqualified.
How could she set up such a large array in the house? Was she trying to guard against her husband?
If it weren't for this large formation, he and his father-in-law would have been able to enter Dongyuan to search, and maybe they could find the treasury key and the seal of the master of Qionghua Pavilion.
Where could there be so much trouble?
At the same time, the contempt for Tang Wenhua in his heart became even stronger. As a city lord, he married such a domineering wife. He was helpless and extremely incompetent at the critical moment.
His Wan'er is gentle and virtuous and would never do this to him.
Stepping into the gate of Xiyuan, I watched the makeup girl apply makeup on Wan'er from a distance, her face was delicate and charming.
This is his wife.
According to the rules, the groom cannot see the bride three days before the wedding, otherwise it will be unlucky.
But he couldn't help but still take a few secret glances.
"Miss, you are truly the most beautiful bride I have ever seen." The makeup girl flattered her.
Tang Wan smiled shyly, "Where is it?" He admitted this in his heart.
"It's true, you are worthy of being the most beautiful woman in Kunwu City." The makeup girl carefully pulled her hair into a bun.
After hearing this, the woman in the hall who was counting the dowry thought of the scene when the city lord's wife married into the city. She was the most beautiful bride she had ever seen.
It's a pity that she didn't marry a husband who cherished her.
Tang Wan looked at himself in the mirror. He was graceful and luxurious, with a head full of pearls, all made of precious spiritual treasures.
My father and brother Chu were so kind to me that they bought these jewelry from Xuanyuan Mountain at a high price.
From today on, she will be the Young City Lord’s wife.
She took out a golden hairpin with a look of nostalgia on her face.
He thought: Mother, what you have been looking forward to, I have done it. The eldest lady is dying, Tang Yue is living in the devil world, his life and death are unknown, your revenge has been avenged, I will fulfill your wish, sit down The position of the castle lord's wife.
Before the wedding, there was a succession ceremony for the young city lord, which was held at the Wangtiantai in the west of the city.
The young city lords of all dynasties accepted the canonization of the city lord here.
This time Tang Wenhua actually took out the City Lord's Sword and awarded it to Chu Tianshu.
"Tian Shu, you used to be my favored disciple, but now you are my son-in-law. You will inherit Kunwu City in the future. I will give this sword to you in advance." Tang Wenhua looked loving.
Before Chu Tianshu could speak, a voice came out, "I don't agree."
The sound was not loud, but it spread throughout the whole ceremony. It was obvious that amplification was used.
Tang Wenhua was startled. He turned around and saw a girl wearing a veil standing in the air with a sword.
Just as he was about to shout out a question, a powerful sword energy with astonishing momentum flew towards him.
His expression changed and he hurriedly dodged.
With a "boom", the rooftop was split in half. (End of this chapter)
