When the middle-aged man saw Tang Ming standing in front of the door, he couldn't help but be startled. Then he looked at the two guards lying on the ground groaning. He thought that it was probably not possible for the guards of two mid-level martial arts masters to be eliminated in a moment. What a simple role. So the middle-aged man asked angrily: "Who are you and why did you hurt them?"
Although the middle-aged man has a big waist and thick body, his brain is still flexible and he is much smarter than the two guards guarding the door. At least he can see that Tang Ming is not simple.
"I am a friend of Prince Wu, my name is Tang Ming. I came here for a visit today," Tang Ming said calmly, "Unexpectedly, these two guys said I was a liar and wanted to take action. I just retaliated unintentionally."
"Friends of Prince Wu?" The middle-aged man frowned, nodded and said, "Wait a moment, I will send someone to inform you."
The middle-aged people were almost suspicious. After all, Tang Ming looked too young. No matter how he thought, he had nothing to do with the aloof Prince Wu. But he is a cautious person, so he still plans to send someone to report it first. If it is true, it will not be offended. If it is false, it will not be too late to take action when the time comes.
After a while, an old man with a white beard hurried over from the city lord's mansion, his expression slightly angry.
After seeing the old man, the middle-aged man hurriedly greeted him respectfully: "Steward Dong, where are you going?"
The person who came was Dong Cang, the chief steward of the City Lord's Mansion. Dong Cang came to everyone and yelled at the middle-aged man: "You bastard! Mr. Tang Ming is the distinguished guest of Prince Wu. How can you stop him at the door?" Outside! Guard Geng! You have to give me an explanation afterwards!"
Dong Cang's scolding made these guards dumbfounded. It turned out that he was a serious guest of the Wu family, and he was looking down on others. At this time, the middle-aged man named Geng Guard's face was already extremely ugly. .
Dong Cang no longer paid attention to these guards, but directly said to Tang Ming politely: "Master Tang, these bastards were so rude just now, I can't help you here. Please come with me, Prince Wu is waiting in the house. ¡±
Tang Ming smiled and nodded, then followed Dong Cang into the city lord's mansion with two jars of fine wine.
After Dong Cang, Tang Ming and others left, Guard Geng directly waved his hand and ordered: "Pull these two blind bastards back and give them a hundred sticks! They will also be punished by washing the stables for a month!"
"Yes!" The other guards were also happy, because it was not them who offended Tang Ming, but the two unlucky guys, so they could just pretend they didn't see it.
In the small garden of Prince Wu of the city lord's palace, Marquis Wu was sitting under the pavilion in the garden. Next to him was a man who looked to be fifty years old and had a calm expression. Looking at the expressions on the two people's faces, he knew what they were talking about. It's already the end.
The man stood up and made a farewell gesture and said: "Prince Wu, since there are distinguished guests here today, I won't disturb you. Regarding the five-year appointment, the Murong family will definitely follow the prince's instructions! Please rest assured, prince!" "
Marquis Wu also smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Haha, the head of the Murong family is able to take matters into consideration, and I will definitely not treat the Murong family badly."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I'll take my leave!" Murong Xuan said happily, then turned around and walked out of the garden.
Just after Mo Rongxuan took a few steps, he met Dong Cang and Tang Ming walking in. When the three of them met, Dong Cang greeted him politely: "Murong Family Master."
"Oh, Butler Dong." Murong Xuan also responded. When he saw Tang Ming standing aside, his expression was stunned for a moment, but it soon returned to normal, and Tang Ming did not notice Murong Xuan's behavior. Subtle move.
"Old Dong, help me see off the head of the Murong family." Behind him, Marquis Wu also saw Dong Cang and Tang Ming walking in, so he directly gave instructions and immediately stood up to greet them: "Haha, Tang Shaoxia really keeps his word. The wine will be delivered to me in a few days! Come on, come on! Please come over here!"
"Haha, Lord Wu, I haven't seen you for a few days, but you are still so energetic!" Tang Ming also walked up with a smile.
Dong Cang behind him had already taken away Murong Xuan very wisely, and Murong Xuan also heard the conversation between the two people behind him, and was even more surprised. Wu Hou was so enthusiastic about this young man, and I am afraid that even he and Wu Hou fought Anyone who has been with me for more than ten years has never enjoyed this kind of treatment.
As Murong Xuan left, Marquis Wu also welcomed Tang Ming under the pavilion, and ordered his servants to get wine glasses and make some side dishes, and the two of them drank together in the small garden.
"Ah! Good wine!" After Wu Hou drank a glass, he raised his eyebrows and laughed boldly: "Hahaha, since I drank Tang Shaoxia's wine, I feel that other wines have lost their taste. It's really We haven¡¯t seen you for three days, and I miss you so much about this fine wine.¡±
"Haha, Prince Wu is laughing. Didn't I bring you wine?" Tang Ming also said with a smile.
"I see, Young Master Tang is not just here to deliver wine today." Wu Hou shook his head and said with a smile. Ever since he met Tang Ming, he knew that this young man is a man who goes his own way and has a young man's personality. Arrogant, this kind of person will always come to the Three Treasures Palace for anything.
"Hahaha! As expected, I can't hide it from Prince Wu," Tang Ming did not deny it, but nodded directly and said, "I'm here to visit today. I really have something to ask Prince Wu."
"Is it because of the Scarlet Flame Demon Lord?" Wu Hou turned his face and asked.
However, Tang Ming shook his head and said, "No, I don't care too much about the Scarlet Flame Demon Lord. What I care about now is Xingyue Palace!"
"Xingyue Palace!?" Upon hearing this Xingyue Palace, Wu Hou seemed to have an instinctive reaction, his face suddenly became serious, and a murderous intention flashed in his eyes, and these reactions were noticed by Tang Ming.
"Prince Wu, you should know Xingyue Palace very well." Tang Ming also changed his smile and said seriously.
Marquis Wu nodded, with a hint of realm in his mind, and then said leisurely: "Tang Shaoxia, do you know that Xingyue Palace is a forbidden topic in the Tianwu Empire?"
"They kidnapped my fianc¨¦e!" Tang Ming ignored Wu Hou's prohibition and directly stated the reason, with a murderous look in his eyes.
Hearing what Tang Ming said, Wu Hou was stunned for a moment, and then sighed and said: "Although I don't know why they kidnapped your fianc¨¦e, Xingyue Palace is the old enemy of the Tianwu royal family, so as long as you are from Xingyue Palace, People, the Tianwu royal family only kills and doesn¡¯t spare any!¡±
"Old enemy?" Tang Ming was also confused. It turned out that the Tianwu royal family and Xingyue Palace still had such a hostile relationship. It seemed that he had found the right person.
"That's right!" Wu Hou nodded, raised his glass and drank it, and then began to talk leisurely: "Xingyue Palace was originally a sect that was separated from the world, and its history and foundation are also quite rich. It is already It has been passed down for thousands of years. Although the Xingyue Palace has always been within the boundaries of the Tianwu Empire, the Tianwu Imperial Family and the Xingyue Palace have always been in harmony with each other, and they have been living in peace."
"However, this relationship did not last forever. There are always people in the world who are too greedy, and when this person full of lust gains strength and power, his ambitions will become endless. And Mo Xingyue, the master of Xingyue Palace of this generation, is such an ambitious person."
