“It’s too much trouble!”
"I'll give you two large pieces of Mingxin stone the size of a rockery. You can cut as much as you can. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Lu Xianyuan was struck by lightning, and the words "rockery size" echoed in his mind...
Gulu…
Even though Lu Xianyuan was well-informed, he swallowed his saliva at this moment, but he still insisted on not admitting defeat. He closed his eyes, pointed a finger upwards, and said: "Then I still want Feng Youyanshui. At least you have to let me catch nine pots, otherwise..."
"I'll give you three full pools, not a drop less, what do you think?"
Lu Xianyuan: “…”
He gritted his teeth and said, "Then I still want the Qinpo plaster..."
"I'll cut 300 kilograms for you. Or 500 kilograms? Just a word!"
Hearing this, Lu Xianyuan lost his temper completely. He pressed his forehead with one hand and said, "Impossible... The previous masters of the Imperial Garden could not play like this... How much fortune did you make?"
Chu Tianxiao smiled faintly and said, "Do you want to continue blackmailing me?"
Lu Xianyuan rolled his eyes at him weakly: "Why are you still blackmailing me? I don't even feel pleasure, I'm just feeling aggrieved... Still blackmailing me? Do you want me to show off?"
"Hey..." Chu Tianxiao smiled and was about to speak, but a sound transmission note on Lu Xianyuan's body suddenly lit up, ignited without fire, and made a sound...
"This is the news from Tomb Heart! They have set a date for the final battle... Seven days later? The location is chosen by us?"
After hearing this, the two of them no longer had any joking smiles on their faces. The reason was that this news came too quickly...
"Everything was premeditated, and the intention behind this was not small."
Lu Xianyuan said solemnly, Chu Tianxiao also held his chin and thought slightly: "It's quite interesting..."
While he was thinking, Mu Liuling walked in from outside, bowed and said: "Young Master, the old lady has gone to bed..."
Then he bowed to Lu Xianyuan and said, "Greetings, His Majesty the Seventh Prince."
"Well... Liuling, you came at the right time..." Chu Tianxiao told Mu Liuling about the matter, and saw a trace of solemnity in her expression.
Chu Tianxiao continued, "The decisive battle will only be held in seven days. The interval is very short. It is obvious that they want to catch us off guard. They also pretended to be generous and let us choose the location. In fact, it is nothing more than a way to stop people from talking... It seems that this will not be a fair duel..."
"In this case, we really need to think carefully about the location of the decisive battle..."
Mu Liuling bowed and said, "Everything is subject to the young master's instructions."
Lu Xianyuan also looked at Chu Tianxiao and saw him knocking on the table for a long time. Suddenly, as if he thought of something, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Hehe... I suddenly had an interesting idea..."
Chu Tianxiao looked at the two of them, smiled faintly and said, "Don't the people of Muxin Qinyun want to confuse us? Well, let's give them a taste of their own medicine! Pick a place they would never expect and make a big splash!"
"Oh? What new ideas do you have?"
"Young Master, please give your orders."
The two said at the same time, and then Chu Tianxiao stood up and snapped his fingers: "This time, the decisive battle... is on the top of the Forbidden City!"
…
While the Chu family was planning, many people were also busy.
The clothing room.
"Oh, which one should I wear? I haven't seen Brother Tianxiao for a long time. I must make a good first impression this time! Mm, this one is nice!"
Lu Meir is like a butterfly dancing among flowers, constantly changing clothes, and the clothes she wears are more beautiful than the flowers...
…
The Imperial Palace.
"... Zhong Yi's son... Really, I don't know what to say about him!"
“… Whatever.”
A slightly helpless voice came out.
"I will take back the 'subconscious mind' in what I said today. Mr. Gao, go and hint to the people below - don't think too much."
The words were unclear, but the chief eunuch Gao Weng, who had served the emperor for many years, immediately heard some contempt, and bowed and said, "Your Majesty really has good intentions for Prince Chu... I will do it now."
…
Qin family.
"Yun'er is actually still alive... This is beyond my expectation. In this meeting of the Divine Marquises to fight against the Chu family, the Seven Sons of the Great Zhou Dynasty did help. My son was not born in vain."
The burly man had his back to his subordinates, and his voice was filled with cold calculation.
"Everyone in the Qin family, get ready! We cannot afford to fail in this meeting!"
"Yes, Patriarch!"
…
Luo family.
"Muxin has already contacted another one of the Seven Sons of the Great Zhou. The situation is leaning towards us! This time, we must break the backbone of the Chu family!"
"Everyone in the Luo family is on high alert!"
"Yes, Patriarch!"
…
Kyoto was in chaos and there were many unusual events, but this did not mean that only things were happening in Kyoto. Somewhere outside of Kyoto, something neither big nor small happened.
…
…
Qingye City, Mu family.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Shenhou Family was the top family, followed by first-, second-, and third-rate families. The Mu Family... could be said to be the ruler of the second-rate city Qingye City, and was expected to be among the first-rate families, but in terms of foundation, it was still far behind.
Families like the Mu family always hope to become a first-rate family. This is just like a first-rate family always hopes to have a brilliant person in the family, who will be named a Divine Marquis and become a Divine Marquis family. Divine Marquis families also have the worry of competing for rankings... This is human nature, and there is nothing wrong with it. However... because the Mu family was once a first-rate family a hundred years ago, but was later squeezed out, the obsession of the Mu family on this matter is much deeper than that of ordinary families...
For this matter, the successive heads of the Mu family racked their brains, and the current head of the family has even gone further and made plans... Unfortunately, there are many circles in the world, each with its own way of playing, and it is not easy to squeeze into a new circle. Even though the head of the Mu family has tried his best, the cards in his hand are really rotten, and he has been busy for many years but still cannot succeed...
However, opportunities always come unexpectedly. Sixteen years ago, by chance, the Mu family got in touch with the Qin family, a divine family, and successfully arranged a marriage! That was the source of the entanglement between Mu Liuling and Qin Yun...
Originally, this was a great thing for the Mu family, but the world changes so fast. When Qin Yun became a loser and Mu Liuling ran away from home, the Mu family made a series of misjudgments and missed a great opportunity... Until now, everyone thought that Mu Liuling had become the "lackey" of the young master of the Chu family, and there was a ray of hope. But who would have thought that there was news that Chu Tianxiao was going to duel with Mu Xin, a powerful person in the Qihun realm and one of the Seven Sons of the Great Zhou...
Qin Yun, who was "humiliated" by Mu Liuling and broke off the engagement, rose strongly and became the last disciple of the Seven Masters of the Great Zhou Dynasty...
After these changes, the entire Mu family is in trouble!
At this moment, in the spacious hall of the Mu family, incense smoke lingered. On the small table in front, there was a row of ancestral tablets, followed by the seat of the head of the family. The current head of the Mu family, Mu Hongyi, was sitting on it, his face livid. On both sides of him were the elders of the two factions of the Mu family. Following him, on the chairs on both sides sat one after another powerful elders of the Mu family... Behind them were some of the family's talented children, candidates for the young head of the family, important masters of the family...
This can be said to be the strongest lineup that the Mu family can currently come up with.
Of course, there are some people who must be present, including her uncle Mu Daoping who raised Mu Liuling, and her two cousins, Mu Ming and Mu Zhe. As for her parents... they passed away many years ago...
Just at this moment, there was a sudden bang in the field!
A teacup fell from top to bottom onto a man, splattering the scalding tea everywhere. Immediately, a cold and angry voice echoed throughout the place.
"Mu Daoping... what a good niece you have!"
"You look down on others. You were obviously engaged to Young Master Qin Yun, but you didn't know how to cherish her... Now it's all over! Now it's all over! This was supposed to be a great opportunity for our Mu family to rise, but now it's nothing! What kind of niece are you raising? How come she didn't die outside when she ran away from home!"
An elder of the Mu family became more and more annoyed with Mu Daoping, and once again picked up a teacup and smashed it at him!
