Treacherous ministers have deep routines

When Lin gave the order, Wei Man immediately picked up the lacquered red box on the ground, carrying the little spirit incense in one hand and the red lacquered box in the other.

Xiao Lingxiang saw it, and hurriedly shouted: "Wei Gong! Wei Gong, put me down!"

"Son!"

"My lord, you heard from Xiang'er that uncle's money is so tight, how can we do a banquet! My lord, isn't this...isn't it embarrassing uncle!"

Xiao Lingxiang kicked her legs and thumped, because she was a little anxious, she said it casually.

Having said that, Lin Rang slowly turned his head and looked at Xiao Lingxiang.

Xiao Lingxiang was stared directly at by Lin Rang's leisurely eyes, and suddenly felt forced to "heart like water", she hurriedly gave a "hehe" laugh, and said, "That...my lord, Xiang'er means... this, that ...Xiang'er was outspoken for a while, but she absolutely didn't feel that the son deliberately made things difficult for uncle!"

Xiao Lingxiang was trying to defend herself, but Lin Rang interrupted her indifferently, saying, "You saw it."

"hold head high?"

Xiao Lingxiang was confused for a while, still hanging on Wei Man's shoulder as a sandbag, staring blankly at Lin Rang, wondering why Lin Rang made such a sudden statement?

Lin Rang smiled slightly, and showed a "gentle" and "sweet" smile to Xiao Lingxiang, and said, "I said, you can see that I am targeting General Wu, how about it?"

Be confident!

Xiao Lingxiang: "..."

Xiao Lingxiang suddenly had nothing to say, like an eggplant beaten by frost, it instantly wilted.

Lin Rang waved his hand and said, "Take it away."

Wei Man didn't talk nonsense, and immediately resisted Xiao Lingxiang and Caibao's lacquer red box together.

Xiao Lingxiang yelled: "Hey! Wei Gong! Wei Gong, wait...my lord, or let's talk again! Let's chat again!"

Xiao Lingxiang's voice gradually faded away, she shouted all the way, and the passers-by looked directly at her.

Wu De watched helplessly that Xiao Lingxiang and the treasure were all taken away by Wei Man, but Lin Rang did not leave, and stood there, staring at him indifferently, as if he had something to say to him.

Lin Rang looked at Wu De indifferently, and said, "General Wu."

Wu De hurriedly arched his hands and said respectfully: "Lord Inspector."

Lin Rang took two steps forward, stood in front of Wu De, and said, "General Wu is a smart man, he must already know why I asked you to organize a banquet, right?"

What Lin Rang said just now was aimed at Wu De.

But Wu De would not be so stupid as to say it by himself, so he said euphemistically: "Lord Inspector, you want to test the humble general."

"Ah--"

When he said this, Lin Rang sneered and said, "If you say that, it's fine."

Wu De wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and quickly flattered him, saying: "Master Inspector has worked so hard for the lifelong event of Princess Lingxiang. Although the humble general is stupid, how can he not understand? The humble general wishes to obey Lord Inspector ordered me to do my best to make a good banquet."

Wu De said such nice things a series of times, and sure enough, Hua Er could tell him off.

Lin Rang said: "Just trying our best is obviously not enough."

Embarrassed for a while, Wu De clasped his hands and said, "Yes, of course."

Wu De thought for a while, then secretly glanced at Lin Rang.

It can be seen that although Lin Rang doesn't like to see him, he agreed to the marriage and let him hold the engagement banquet, so he made some concessions after all. In this way, Wu De wanted to take advantage of Lin Rang's concession ...

Wu De organized his words, and when Lin Rang turned to leave, he suddenly said: "Master Inspector, please stay!"

Lin Rang stood where he was, didn't leave immediately, and looked back at Wu De slightly.

Wu De was talking fast just now, but now that Lin Rang really stopped, he was a little scared, feeling like his calf was twisting.

Wu De coughed and said: "Yes...that's how it is, Lord Inspector, I don't know... I don't know if Lord Inspector has enough money, can... can you borrow some money from the humble general, the humble general is also good..."

Borrowing money is probably the most difficult thing Wu De has encountered in his life. After all, for a grown man, asking for money is not good-looking, and his insides are clearly seen.

Lin Rang turned his head to look at Wu De, there seemed to be a "cold" smile on the corner of his mouth, he shook his head and said, "No."

Wu De didn't expect to be rejected so simply.

If other people refuse to borrow money, they need to find several reasons, such as brother, my money is also very tight recently.

Or brother, my daughter-in-law recently had a baby and really can't afford it.

Or, my mother's cousin's niece's aunt's friend has been ill recently, and the money has already been borrowed, and it is really unfortunate that my brother came.

In short, there are all kinds of excuses, and you can tell they are prevarication as soon as you hear them, so just find a few and use them.

How could Lin Rang refuse directly like this.

Wu De felt the extreme embarrassment for a moment, standing still and still arching his hands, the expression on his face was frozen, and he didn't know what expression to put on.

Wu De bit the bullet and said: "But this... the humble general was ordered to organize a banquet. If this... this really can't afford so much money, what should we do? It really is not the humble general who instigates the banquet. I have taken out all my savings without any reservations, but it is still not enough!"

Wu De was going to talk to Lin Rang Xiaozhi with reason, but he almost forgot that Lin Rang is a ruthless and unreasonable person.

Lin Rang looked at Wu De indifferently, and said, "In that case..."

Wu De pricked up his ears to listen, not knowing what good solution Lin Rang would give him, or simply give him a way out.

Unexpectedly, Lin Rang paused, and then said, "It's better to sell your kidney."

Wu De: "..." sell... sell...

Wu De didn't know the stalk of selling kidneys, but he knew it was not a good thing when he heard it.

After Lin Rang finished speaking, he smiled to himself, then turned around and left Shi Shiran.

Wu De stood on the spot, clenched his hands slightly, looked at the back of Lin Rang leaving, and didn't say a word...

Lin Rang returned to the palace where he was staying in the Huaizhong Imperial Palace, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Wu De, who was sitting on the mat, eye to eye with Xiao Lingxiang.

As soon as those two people saw Lin Rang coming back, they immediately jumped up and ran over.

Xiao Lingxiang shouted: "Master, Xiang'er misses you to death!"

Lin Rang looked at the flattering Xiao Lingxiang indifferently. Xiao Lingxiang ran over and said very coyly, "Master, uncle...has he gone back?"

Lin Rang said lightly: "Go back and continue raising money, otherwise what else can I do? Give up the engagement?"

Xiao Lingxiang: "..." Good... What a vicious son!

Xiao Lingxiang quietly grabbed some corners of Lin Rang's clothes, and said, "Master——"

As she spoke, her voice was drawn out, shaking Lin Rang's clothes, and continued: "Young son duck, then don't make things difficult for uncle, okay?"

Lin Rang said, "Not good."

Xiao Lingxiang: "..." There is really no way to continue the conversation.

Seeing this appearance, Wei Man couldn't help laughing, and stood on the wall to watch the good show.

Xiao Lingxiang gave Wei Man a few looks, but Wei Man didn't seem to notice.

Xiao Lingxiang said: "My lord, take a look, if the banquet is not arranged properly, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of your lord? Xiang'er is thinking of your lord."

Lin Rang smiled slightly, and stared at Xiao Lingxiang condescendingly. I don't know if it was because of the problem of looking up. Xiao Lingxiang always felt that the young master's smile was not only ruthless, but also...

There is also a strange arc, and the angle at which the corner of the mouth is raised is terrifying!

Lin Rang said indifferently: "Oh? Is that so? That's a coincidence. I was also thinking of Xiang'er."

Xiao Lingxiang: "..." Really... we can't continue talking.

Xiao Lingxiang and Lin Rang were obviously not in the same rank, so they were quickly defeated and came to Wei Man's side, poking Wei Man vigorously and giving him small winks.

Wei Man didn't want to be nosy, he had already been nosy before, and went to lobby Lin Rang to agree to the marriage between Wu De and Xiao Lingxiang. To be honest, he was not optimistic about this marriage either.

Wu De is too shrewd, and interests come first. Although he is a gentleman, he is not a real gentleman. Besides, he is a typical type who can abandon his wife in the face of righteousness.

Although Xiao Lingxiang is also very intelligent, but everyone has their own hurdles. Obviously, Xiao Lingxiang's hurdle lies in Wu De. It doesn't work either, and I'm willing to suffer.

If Wei Man hadn't been for various checks and balances, he would not have agreed to the marriage between Xiao Lingxiang and Wu De.

Wei Man didn't care, he raised his head and ignored Xiao Lingxiang, who was very anxious.

Xiao Lingxiang simply said pitifully: "My lord, you...do you have the heart to watch uncle have no money?"

Lin Rang said indifferently: "Xiang'er, if General Wu can't even overcome the hurdle of money, how can he overcome more hurdles in the future?"

Xiao Lingxiang said strangely: "Is there any hurdle, young master?"

Lin Rang seemed to be lost in thought. Naturally, there will be many hurdles, who can say for sure, if the day when there is a three-pointer in this world, it will be the day when Wu De and Xiao Lingxiang will break up.

In the face of power, such a large amount of money today will become small and silent. Therefore, the hurdle of money is just a trick of Lin Rang to test Wu De.

Xiao Lingxiang didn't touch Lin Rang in the end, so she left in despair.

Seeing that she was about to walk out of the hall, Lin Rang suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

Xiao Lingxiang's eyes lit up, she rushed back immediately, and said excitedly: "My lord! Have you finally softened your heart?"

"Softhearted?"

Lin Rang said lightly: "My son's heart is made of stone."

Xiao Lingxiang curled her lips and said, "I don't know what your master wants?"

Lin Rang said indifferently: "Just to remind you, you must not interfere with General Wu's preparation of the banquet. If you do..."

Xiao Lingxiang said pitifully: "Do you want to cancel Xiang'er's engagement with uncle?"

Lin Rang raised his eyebrows and said, "No, it's not straightforward, how could it be me? I'll make people chop off the third leg of General Wu and make wine."

Xiao Lingxiang: "..."

After Xiao Lingxiang left, Wei Man said: "Although you have good intentions, you are too indifferent to Xiang'er."

Lin Rang looked at Wei Man and said, "According to Wei Gong's words, Rang should be more...gentle to others?"

When Wei Man heard this, he hurriedly said: "It's okay, you should still be gentle to the lonely person, that's enough, and treat others like the cold winter wind, if it's a bit colder, I don't mind."

Regarding the banquet, Wu De was at a loss. Originally, Xiao Lingxiang planned to help him, but before the money was obtained, it was in vain, and Lin Rang snatched it all away.

Wu De was desperate, and sold all his valuables, but it was a drop in the bucket, not enough for a temporary need.

Seeing that the day of the engagement banquet was approaching day by day, Wu De was really desperate, so he just pulled his face and prepared to borrow money with a shy face.

Speaking of money, Wu De naturally thought of Wei Man's younger brother Wei Zilian first.

This Wei Zilian and Wei Man are not really related to each other.

Although Wei Zilian and Wei Man both have the surname Wei, but Wei Man's father was adopted as the eunuch's son, so there is no blood relationship with Wei Zilian at all.

But the two grew up together, and they are both very clever. They are all demon kings in the world, and they are congenial, so they have a good relationship on weekdays.

Wei Zilian's family is very rich, and Wei Zilian himself is a business genius, owning his own horse farm and farmland, and the gold, silver and grain in the family may all come out of the warehouse.

To Wu De, organizing a banquet is a mountain-like task, but to Wei Zilian, it is not worth mentioning at all. If Wei Zilian can spend some money to support himself, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Wu De thought very well, but he didn't have much friendship with Wei Zilian on weekdays, so he couldn't speak rashly, he needed to find an opportunity.

Wu De secretly observed Wei Zilian all day long, and Wei Zilian was fine all day long.

They had just conquered Huaizhong, and Yuan Wenruo and Yuan You, the uncle and nephew, were in charge of the people's affairs in Huaizhong. Wei Zilian, a general, didn't have such troublesome things, so he was very relaxed.

Watching Zhao Dian fight and fight every day, and spend the day leisurely.

One day Wei Zilian finished watching Zhao Dian and punched Zhao Dian. Zhao Dian was called away by Wei Man. It seemed that there was something to discuss, so Wei Zilian was free and had nothing to do. He walked with a straw in his mouth. Take a big step and walk forward leisurely.

At this moment, I suddenly saw someone walking towards me, saluted respectfully, and said, "Greetings, General Wei."

Wei Zilian took a closer look, it turned out to be Wu De.

Wei Zilian is a smart man. He has been in business since he was a child. Although he looks like a playboy, he knows how to speak nonsense when talking to people.

When Wei Zilian saw Wu De, although Wu De was very friendly, there was a bright expression on his face - borrow money, these two words.

Wei Zilian raised his eyebrows and said, "Hey, General Wu, General Wu is busy these days, why did you think of Zilian?"

Wu De said with a dry smile: "General Wei, to tell you the truth, the humble general who came here today is actually..."

Wei Zilian patted Wu De on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I know, I know."

Wu De said in surprise: "General Wei knows?"

Wei Zilian nodded with a smile, and said: "Of course I know, what a beauty the Princess Lingxiang is, what more can a husband ask for if he can marry such a beautiful lady? General Wu must have something good to do, and he has been restless these days and wants to find her." Someone enlightens you, doesn't it?"

Wu De: "..." Of course not.

Wei Zilian deliberately distorted his meaning, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you don't have to be so nervous."

As Wei Zilian spoke, he suddenly pointed to the front and said, "Ah! I'm called over there. I'll go there first. General Wu, please."

After saying that, he immediately stepped forward and walked away in a hurry.

Wu De stood where he was, still maintaining the posture of clasping his hands. Seeing Wei Zilian leave, the smile on his face froze.

How could he not understand what Wei Zilian meant, obviously he was pretending to be confused, but in fact he was refusing to lend money to Wu De.

Wu De sighed, and when he turned his head, he happened to see Ying Ziyun.

General Ziyun, sweating all over after finishing his training, took off his helmet and tucked it under his arm, and walked down from the school field with his spear.

Wu De's eyes moved slightly, Ying Ziyun.

Ying Ziyun is Wu De's "old friend". Back then, they all served under Sima Bogui's command. It can be said that they are close friends, eat and sleep together, and love brothers and sisters.

But later Wu De ran away, and pushed Ying Ziyun out personally, and gave it to Wei Man. This series of things made Ying Ziyun feel a little chilled, and the two of them met from now on just to say hello, and they didn't say anything more What.

But in any case, Ying Ziyun can be regarded as someone who has an "old relationship" with Wu De, and Wu De was Ying Ziyun's master in the past, so it should be easier to speak up than others.

Wu De hurried up and said, "Ziyun, brother Ziyun! Please stay."

Ying Ziyun wiped his sweat and walked past, when he heard Wu De's voice, he stopped and looked back.

When Ying Ziyun saw Wu De, his eyes were a little different. He squinted his eyes, arched his hands, and said very formulaically, "General Wu, what can you tell me?"

As soon as Ying Ziyun spoke so coldly, Wu De's scalp felt a little numb, but the engagement banquet was a big one, so he said shyly, "Ziyun, brother..."

When he said this, he heard a young man's voice laughing and said: "General Wu's remarks are biased. Who doesn't know that my master's elder brother passed away a few years ago. I deliberately bid farewell to General Sima, and left the barracks...so, how could there be an extra brother?"

Before Wu De finished speaking, he saw someone "killed" halfway, and the two of them turned their heads to look.

Little Kong Ming!

With his hands behind his back, Xiao Kongming walked over leisurely with an inscrutable look.

When Wu De heard it, Xiao Kong made it clear that he was against him, and deliberately said that Ying Ziyun's brother had passed away, obviously not wanting to have a relationship with Ying Ziyun.

Wu De smiled awkwardly and said, "This...Ziyun...general."

Ying Ziyun didn't mind how Wu De called him, and said indifferently: "General Wu has some advice, if not, Ziyun will leave."

Xiao Kongming looked up at Wu De, thought for a while, then walked over, and even took Ying Ziyun's arm, shaking Ying Ziyun with an innocent face, and said with a "baby voice": "Master!" Master! This disciple has a set of boxing techniques that he still doesn’t know, and he can’t do anything, so master, hurry up and help disciple!”

On weekdays, Xiao Kongming didn't like to admit that he was Ying Ziyun's apprentice, and he didn't like boxing and practicing martial arts.

Yingzi Yunnahan looked down at Xiao Kongming, and then at his shaking his arms, always feeling goosebumps on the back of his spine.

Seeing that Ying Ziyun was "dull", Xiao Kongming blinked his eyes at him, Ying Ziyun only then realized that Xiao Kongming was helping him.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Wu De quickly stopped them. After all, Ying Ziyun was his life-saving straw, and said, "General Ziyun, please stay!"

He simply bit the bullet and said directly: "I don't know if General Ziyun has enough money, can you... lend me some money for now?"

Wu De finally said it, and silently breathed a sigh of relief.

Ying Ziyun hadn't opened his mouth yet, but little Kong Ming spoke again, saying: "What a coincidence, master, the old man is very poor recently, master bought a set of weapons for Kong Ming, which cost a lot. General Wu also knows that Master is very frugal and hardworking on weekdays, so where is the extra money?"

After Xiao Kongming said that, and refused clearly, Wu De had no choice but to say with a dry smile: "Then...then don't bother General Ziyun."

Wu De turned around and left dejectedly, Xiao Kongming squinted his eyes and looked at Wu De's back, and said, "Finally left."

Xiao Kongming clapped his hands, turned around, and almost bumped into Ying Ziyun directly, stepped back quickly, and saw Ying Ziyun looking at him with a "smiling" face, smiling as if he had eaten something unclean .

Little Kongming said warily, "What are you doing?"

Ying Ziyun bent down slightly, looked at Xiao Kongming, and said, "Teacher, what are you doing?"

Little Kongming was even more vigilant, and Ying Ziyun said: "Didn't this disciple just beg to be a teacher to teach you boxing techniques? Are you still leaving?"

Little Kongming's scalp became numb immediately, and he said: "I just wanted to save you, and it was an expedient measure, but you actually took it seriously and repaid your kindness?"

Ying Ziyun said sternly: "As a teacher teaching you boxing techniques, how can you repay kindness with revenge?"

Xiao Kong was so angry that his seven orifices were almost full of smoke, how could he look like a master in normal times, staring at Ying Ziyun.

Ying Ziyun smiled, raised his hand to rub Xiao Kongming's hair, and said, "I was joking with Mr. Zhan."

Little Kongming: "..."

Wu De suffered two setbacks in a row, but if he had no money, it was absolutely impossible. He stood on the spot and paced for a long time, then looked towards the direction of the main hall.

Wei Man...

Now there is only Wei Man, who can lend himself money.

But Wei Man has always obeyed Lin Rang's words, if Lin Rang was around, Wei Man would definitely not lend him money.

Wu De searched for an opportunity for a long time, and finally found an opportunity when Lin Rang was not around, so he hurried to see Wei Man.

When Wu De arrived at the main hall, Yuan Wenruo and Yuan You's uncle and nephew had just walked out of the hall. They were discussing important matters while walking, and soon walked away.

Wu De tidied up his clothes, and then walked into the main hall. After entering, he looked around, and there was no sign of Lin Rang.

Sitting on the upper seat, Wei Man said calmly, "General Wu is here, please come in quickly."

Wu De went in, bowed to Wei Man, and said, "My lord."

Wei Man smiled and said: "What? How is the preparation of the banquet? Gu Ke has heard about it. Recently...you have managed the banquet in a very impressive way?"

What's so impressive, it hasn't started yet, and the money is not enough, who can work for him?

If the banquet is not held again, there is no need to hold this banquet, then there is no need to marry the princess, and there is no need to be attached to the Wu family, everything will be in vain.

Seeing such a bright future, how could Wu De give up?

After Wei Man said these few words, Wu De's complexion turned pale, but he still bit the bullet and cupped his hands and said, "I'll tell you the truth...my lord, I have encountered some difficulties."

Wei Man asked knowingly, "Oh? What's the difficulty?"

Wu De said very humbly: "My lord, I have always lived a thrifty life. I don't have much money at hand, and the princess has a lot of money. I really can't bear to neglect the princess a little bit, so... so please ask the lord For the sake of the humble general's heart, can you temporarily borrow some money from the humble general, so that the humble general can hold this banquet in a grand manner and not wrong the princess."

Wu De talked about the princess, the princess, the princess, and he didn't know if it was really for the sake of Xiao Lingxiang, or to win over the Wu family.

Wei Man smiled faintly and said, "It's because you have a heart."

Wu De quickly expressed his determination and said: "The heart of the humble general to the princess, the world can learn from it, and I hope the lord will fulfill it."

Wei Man didn't reply immediately, but picked up the bamboo slips on the case table to read, and the hall fell into a deathly silence for a moment.

Wu De's scalp was numb, his forehead was covered with sweat, he stood quietly for a while, at the moment when he was about to give up and felt that there was no point, Wei Man suddenly put down the bamboo slips in his hand, and let out a "pop!"

Wei Man said lightly: "Wu De, I don't know how deeply you think about Xiang'er, but I can tell you with certainty that Xiang'er's thoughts for you are single-minded and unswerving until death. "

Wu De didn't know why Wei Man suddenly mentioned this, he mentioned Xiao Lingxiang to play the emotional card, and Wei Man suddenly mentioned it...

Although Wu De was thinking in his heart, but after hearing Wei Man's words, for some reason, Wu De's heart also fluctuated slightly.

Yes, Princess Lingxiang has deep feelings for her, because Princess Lingxiang always believes that she is the hero who saved her from fire and water.

And myself...

Wu De looked down at his palm, he was not a hero, and he didn't want to be a hero, because looking at the world, how many heroes died unexpectedly, with a sincere heart, how could they survive to the end in this troubled world? ?

Wu De clenched his palms tightly, Princess Lingxiang is always so wishful thinking, wishful thinking regards him as a hero.

What makes Wude most angry is that he is not worthy...

Wu De took a deep breath, and Wei Man continued: "Xiang'er has made up her mind, how can Gu have the heart to refuse her, so it's not for your Wu De, Gu will help you."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the box in the corner, and said, "I've prepared it for you a long time ago."

Wu De was taken aback, and quickly turned his head to look.

Wei Man said, "You can open it and have a better look."

Wu De stepped over, "Crack!" and opened the box with a sound, there are more jewels than what Xiao Lingxiang gave Wu De, much more precious, enough to hold a grand engagement banquet, definitely not embarrassing.

Wu De hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "Thank you, my lord! Thank you, my lord!"

"Don't thank Gu in advance."

Wei Man raised his hand to stop Wu De, and said: "Gu Chou said before, but this money is lent to you by Gu Chou, if you borrow it, you can repay it, and it's not difficult to borrow again."

"Yes Yes!"

Wu De quickly responded and said: "How dare the humble general covet the Lord's money."

Wei Man said again: "The deed has been put aside, you can pick it up and have a look."

Next to the box was a book contract made of leather. Wu De picked it up, opened it, and couldn't help being surprised, and said, "This..."

ten times!

Today's money will be repaid ten times in the future!

These treasures are already the amount that Wu De has never seen in his life, and they have to be repaid ten times. Isn't it necessary to strip Wu De's skin?

Wu De was a bit hesitant, Wei Man smiled and said: "This is Gu's condition, if you agree, press your fingerprints, and after the deposit, the money will be yours, if you don't agree..."

Wei Man didn't say any more, Wu De swallowed a mouthful of saliva, ten times!This is simply a bond of sale, and I don't know when it will be repaid.

But if he didn't draw a bet, the engagement banquet might be ruined, and he lost this opportunity to contact Wu, and he didn't know when he would be able to come out on top.

Besides, the eldest son of the Wu family, Wu Yan, must be a vengeful master. The marriage was said in front of the heroes of the world. If the engagement banquet fails, it will be Wu's face. Maybe let this thief who teased his sister go?

Don't say it's trying to win over Wu Shi, I'm afraid it's going to tear the skin off with Wu Shi.

Therefore, Wu De has no way out.

Wu De squinted his eyes, thought for a while, and then readily signed, cut the contract in duplicate, and handed one of them to Wei Man.

Wei Man glanced at the contract on the case table, without touching it at all, and said flatly: "Since that's the case, you can withdraw."

"Yes, I will retire."

Wu De agreed, and quickly left the hall holding the box.

As soon as he left, the palace door closed with a "squeak" and someone came out from behind the screen.

The man was very slim, tall, and dressed in a white robe. He stepped out under the light of Yaoye, as if he was a banished immortal, with a lingering and elegant posture.

It was Lin Rang!

Wu De came here specifically looking for an opportunity when Lin Rang was not around. How could he know that Lin Rang and Ben were in the hall, but they had never "shown their faces".

Lin Rang came out and sat opposite Wei Man.

Wei Man pushed the deed to Lin Rang, and said with a smile: "As the governor ordered, Wu De has already signed it."

Lin Rang took the book and took a look at it. The corners of his lips twitched, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

Wei Man shook his head and sighed, "You, for the sake of that little girl, Xiang'er, you have worked so hard to beat Wu De, and at the same time lend him money in a different way. Tell me, why don't you treat Gu like this?" Care?"

Lin Rang put the contract away, turned to look at Wei Man, and said, "Why is Rang not interested in you?"

Wei Man got angry when he heard this, moved closer to Lin Rang, lowered his voice, and said in a low voice with his most magnetic and hoarse voice: "Tell me, since you entered Huaizhong, you have been left out in the cold. How long will you be left alone?"

There are a lot of things going on in Huaizhong, it's about fighting, and it's about soothing people's hearts, and now they want to take advantage of the engagement banquet to attack Chen Ji. With so many things together, it's reasonable for Lin Rang to "snub" Wei Man.

Wei Man said, "No, how will you compensate Gu?"

Lin Rang looked at Wei Man calmly, his eyes were very calm and indifferent, but in the depths of that indifference, the light in his eyes was beating slightly, Wei Man could see it, as if it was a huge wave on the bottom of the sea.

Lin Rang said softly: "Then Wei Gong... how do you want Rang to make up for it?"

With Wei Man's "high/profit/loan", Wu De finally organized the engagement banquet as scheduled.

On the day of the banquet, the generals of various ministries would naturally come to participate. They were here to watch the fun. After all, Wu De did not have the credit for the entire battle in Huaizhong. Who would be reconciled to taking away the beauty for her meritorious service?

Besides, Princess Lingxiang is not an ordinary beauty. His father is the invincible General Polu in the past, and his elder brother is the major general Wu Yan who is desperate to fight. Lu Shixiong, who has a beautiful husband, and this big family, if they are in love with each other, there will be endless benefits in the future.

Many people are not convinced that Wu De has gained such a big benefit for nothing, so today I am here to watch the excitement, and it depends on how Wu De made a fool of himself at the engagement banquet.

But who would have thought that after everyone walked in, they found that the hall was full of resplendent and colorful lights, and there were pieces of lights hanging outside the hall, lighting up the entire night sky, as if they were in a fairyland!

When everyone saw it, they were dumbfounded, everyone was stunned, they didn't know what happened, could it be...

This Wu De was originally a rich man, but he usually likes to pretend to be poor?

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and they didn't dare to go in after staying outside the hall. Wu De came out of the hall like a host, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Generals, please, please! It's the first time for the general to host a banquet. I am a novice, and there are still many incomprehensible places, please be patient and forgive me!"

Wu De's tone was obviously dragged on.

Everyone looked again, today's Wude is also different, the beard is clean-shaven, the clothes are newly made, a dark green robe, the whole person is spotless, the deep dark green is dotted with the surrounding lights, making Wude look The extravagance is overwhelming!

Everyone is used to seeing the Wu De of the poor boy, but when they saw Wu De today, they almost couldn't recognize him.

Wei Man and Lin Rang walked in from the outside, and of course Xiao Lingxiang.

Xiao Lingxiang was looking forward to today's engagement banquet. She had been looking forward to it for a long time, and it finally arrived for her, and she specially dressed up.

At that time, women were married early, and it was not too early for Xiao Lingxiang to look like this. Xiao Lingxiang was a beauty, but now she was dressed up like this, and there was nothing to say. "Light up", that appearance can be said to be a sinking fish and a wild goose.

Xiao Lingxiang followed Wei Man and Lin Rang in "obediently", and saw his "uncle" at a glance. Uncle Wu De is neat and unrestrained today, revealing the elegance of a literati and the air of a chivalrous man. Upright and awe-inspiring, domineering and gentle intertwined, the appearance has not just risen to a higher level.

Xiao Lingxiang immediately cupped her face and said with a smile: "Wow! Uncle looks really good-looking!"

Wu De looked "poor" on weekdays, but today he seemed to be a different person, and his appearance was revealed. Lin Rang said lightly, "He is indeed handsome."

When Wei Man heard this, the alarm bells in his heart rang loudly. He immediately grabbed Lin Rang and whispered, "Lin Rang! You can't empathize with someone else, you can't be alone!"

Lin Rang looked at Wei Man suspiciously, and said, "Why did Duke Wei say such a thing?"

Wei Man still whispered to Lin Rang, saying, "Gu doesn't know you yet? How do you say that? Yes, Yan Kong!"

Wei Man has learned a lot of "local dialect" from Lin Rang, so he knows a lot, such as "face control" and so on, he understands these avant-garde words.

Wei Man said with resentment on his face: "You face control, look at Lu Jinyu today, Ying Ziyun tomorrow, and even Mr. Zhan the day after tomorrow. That's right, the original text Ru and Uncle Yuan You came recently." Nephews, you can't even pull your eyes out, can they have a lonely look? You said it's not empathy."

When he said this, Lin Rang became heinous.

Lin Rang thought for a while, nodded, and said, "What Duke Wei said is exactly."

Seeing that he finally admitted it, Wei Man couldn't help snorting, and said, "It's good that you know you're wrong."

Lin Rang said in a cold voice: "However... If you talk about empathy, isn't Rang's 'first love' Mr. Lu? Rang first fell in love with Mr. Lu, and then he empathized with Mr. Wei. "

Wei Man: "..." Wait, is that the case? !

Still first love? !

When Wei Man heard this, he almost exploded on the spot. If it really exploded, Wu De's carefully prepared engagement banquet would be ruined.

Wei Man said: "No, no solitary, your first love must be solitary!"

After saying that, he changed his mind and said, "What first love? You are completely lonely, from beginning to end!"

Lin Rang saw that Wei Man's face darkened in an instant, and he couldn't help but chuckled with a "huh", leaned closer, and whispered to Wei Man, "Wei Gong...the expression on his face is really lovely now."

Xiao Lingxiang raised her head, looked at Wei Man and Lin Rang "making fun of", tugged at the corner of Lin Rang's clothes helplessly, and said, "My lord, do you have any misunderstanding about 'Ke Rener'? "

Wei Man: "..."

Everyone walked into the banquet hall, and Wu Yan and Lu Jinyu also came. After all, today is the younger sister's engagement banquet. As the eldest brother, Wu Yan, how could he not come, and he will come in a grand manner.

He specially put on a jacket, and appeared in the banquet hall with a majestic face, as if he was about to go to the battlefield, not at all like
