Chapter 272 Banquet
Chapter 272 Banquet
Lord Su and his convoy arrived in Jinling.
Ye Siti, who was standing at the city gate to greet them, took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with Lord Su.
Lord Su, who had originally been expressionless, thought of the common people of Yang City and had to force a smile and stepped forward to shake hands with Ye Siti.
Looking at Lord Su with his head full of white hair, Ye Siti was stunned. Out of politeness, Ye Siti did not specifically ask why Lord Su's hair turned white so quickly.
Ye Siti stretched out her hand and greeted with a smile on her face; Oh, Lord Su, we haven't seen each other for a long time.
Lord Su held Ye Siti's hand and replied with a smile; Yes, it has been several years too. Lord Ye is really capable. Look at how brilliantly you have governed the city of Jinling. People who don't understand would think they have come to Kyoto.
Ye Siti was so happy to be praised by the old senior that she waved her hand modestly and said, "That's not the case. When it comes to governance, I still have a lot to learn from Lord Su."
Looking at the magnificent Jinling, where the people live and work in peace and contentment, Lord Su secretly complained: "Learn from me~! If she knew that the entire Yang City had fallen and the people were slaughtered at will by those islanders, would she still learn from me?"
Thinking of this, Lord Su smiled but said nothing.
Ye Siti continued to greet him, "Sir Su, follow me into the city, and the brothers you brought with you, we will treat them well when the time comes."
Ye Siti made a gesture of invitation.
Lord Su did not go into the city, but turned back to the car and picked up the two bottles of wine given by Aoi Jasmine.
Seeing Lord Su holding two bottles of wine, Ye Siti pretended to help Lord Su carry them.
When Lord Su saw Ye Siti coming to take her wine, he broke out in a cold sweat on the spot.
He quickly waved his hand to stop him and said, "Please don't bother me, Lord Ye. These two bottles of wine are specially prepared for Liu Yi Yang. They are good wines that money cannot buy. I have to carry them myself."
Seeing that Lord Su was so determined, Ye Siti could no longer insist.
Then he led Lord Su and his entourage into the city.
Ye Siti and Lord Su walked side by side in front, followed by a group of island soldiers dressed as Dragon Country citizens.
The island soldiers walking behind were all attracted by the figure of Ye Siti in front of them. They were all very eager to make love with the woman in front of them. If Aoi Mari had not repeatedly emphasized the need to put the overall situation first, these soldiers might have pounced on her long ago.
Ye Siti, who was walking in front, also felt that there were pairs of wolf-like eyes staring at her from behind.
Guests are welcome. I can’t just turn around and yell at them.
This side of Yang City.
Aoi Mari looked at the time and shouted to the assembled troops: It's almost time, let's set off.
Aoi Jasmine calculated the time of Lord Su's arrival and added the time the team would march.
At that time, he would hide outside the city, and wait for the signal from the city, then lead the army into the city and capture Jinling in one fell swoop.
Jinling
When Liu Yi Yang saw Lord Su's haggard face, he was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and shook hands with Lord Su and greeted him.
Oh, it's a rare honor for Lord Su to attend my son's first birthday party. It's really hard work.
Lord Su also greeted: No, no, we missed you the last few times, let’s have a good drink this time.
After saying that, he raised the wine in his hand and continued.
This is good stuff. It contains daughter’s red wine. I spent a lot of effort to get this wine.
Daughter’s red wine~!
Although he has never drunk this wine himself, Liu Yiyang has looked up some information about it.
I heard that the origin of Nv'erhong is that on the day his daughter was born, her father brewed several jars of wine and buried them underground. When his daughter got married, the father dug them out to entertain relatives and friends, so this wine is very rare.
Liu Yi Yang was overjoyed when he heard this; this wine is so rare, I will have to drink a few more glasses when the time comes.
After the two exchanged greetings for a while, Liu Yiyang sent Lord Su to the guest room to rest.
Liu Yiyang took those who came with Lord Su to a room where guns and ammunition were already prepared.
Liu Yi Yang asked them to move these things into the car first so that they wouldn't have to be so busy when the time comes.
The soldiers did not dare to speak, after all, their accents were so different that they would be exposed if they spoke.
They nodded and bowed, then began to move.
Seeing that they didn't say anything, Liu Yi Yang didn't think much about it. He called a servant to look after them and continued to greet other distinguished guests.
Yang City.
The Seven Star Sword in Du Tiantian's house seemed more abnormal and more agitated than yesterday.
Looking at the Seven-Star Sword on the wall, Du Tiantian seemed to sense something was wrong, as if something big was about to happen.
After some thought, the only person she could think of was Liu Yi Yang.
After all, this sword was taken from Liu Yi Yang, so this sword must resonate with Liu Yi Yang.
After much deliberation, Du Tiantian decided to go to Jinling.
She called Liu Nianyang over.
Du Tiantian squatted down, put her hands on Liu Nianyang's shoulders, and said earnestly; My child, Mom is going on a long journey, and you are the only man in the family, so you have to take good care of this family. Remember, listen to grandma and Uncle Qiu, and take good care of them too, do you understand?
Liu Nianyang assured like a little adult: Don't worry, Mom, I will take good care of grandma.
Du Tiantian touched Liu Nianyang's head, stood up, took out the Seven Star Sword, and left with big strides.
Before she had walked far, Liu Nianyang chased out and shouted, "Mom, go early and come back early."
Du Tiantian smiled and nodded at Liu Nianyang.
The moment Du Tiantian turned around, who could have known that this would be the last time they would meet, and that separation would last forever.
The Seven-Star Sword is the weapon of the Shushan leader. It contains supreme spiritual energy and can sense life, death and disaster.
The closer Aoi Jasmine's team got to Jinling, the more restless the Seven Star Sword on Du Tiantian's back became.
Time soon came to Liu Jing's birthday.
Liu Yi Yang set up more than sixty tables, all of which were filled with guests.
Liu Yi Yang held his son and greeted everyone one by one, and the four wives also came down to greet the guests.
It was natural for Lord Su to sit at the same table with Liu Yi Yang.
Lord Su sat motionless in his seat, holding two bottles of wine tightly in his hands. When the top leaders of several surrounding cities saw Lord Su, they all came forward to greet him and exchanged a few words.
Lord Su was not very interested. He stood up, exchanged a few simple words with the other party, and then sat back in his seat.
Those who chatted with Lord Su felt that he had become much colder.
In fact, it was not that Lord Su was unwilling to chat with them, he was just afraid of making more mistakes if he talked too much. If they talked about the war at the front, he really didn't know how to answer.
Another most important reason is that Lord Su has low self-esteem.
While he was sitting at his seat, he heard a few people at the next table talking about how well they managed their city. Now, not only did they fail to protect the safety of the people, but they also became a puppet of the islanders.
What qualifications do I have today to talk to others about governing the city for the benefit of the people?
