READ WEBNOVEL Chapter 61 Did You Come To Find Faults On Purpose?
On the night of staying in Qiao's mansion, Wang Ge enjoyed his practice very much, and even made preparations for tomorrow's martial arts training.
But for the rest of the Qiao family, it was a huge pressure.
As the eldest son of the Qiao family in Xiangxi, Qiao Yuanyu is now the county magistrate of Xiangxi County.
As soon as he walked out of the living room of the elders of the Qiao family, a look of worry appeared on his face.
"What is the purpose of the king of Yue coming to our Qiao mansion?" Qiao Yuanyu murmured to himself.
Qiao Yuanyu would not simply think that the other party was just here to chat and have a meal when the big leader came to the door. There must be a deeper reason.
He carefully recalled whether the Qiao family had done anything out of the ordinary in the few months since King Yue succeeded to the throne.
"It seems that Father is getting closer to Prime Minister Zhang. Is this what attracted His Highness's attention?" Qiao Yuanyu thought of this.
His father, who is now the head of the Qiao family, is currently serving as an official in the court.
The head of the family is far away in the court, so the only ones who can be the masters of the Qiao family now are his son-in-law and all the respected clan elders.
Qiao Yuanyu knew more or less about the situation in the capital.
It is nothing more than the "Emperor Party" formed by Emperor Xuan who sent people to the court of Yue Kingdom with Zhang Yan as the core.
Then there is the "Royal Party" headed by the King of Xinyue.
Then there are wealthy noble families like the Qiao family in Xiangxi who are on the sidelines.
Qiao Yuanyu doesn't think there is anything wrong with her father's courtship to the "Emperor Party". This is the way their aristocratic family behaves. We will help whoever wins. We only need the family to survive and be rich.
But right now, King Yue's visit is indeed a troublesome issue for Qiao Yuanyu.
Qiao Yuanjin felt guilty that he had done something bad secretly.
He was really worried, is the king of Yue coming to beat Qiao's?
Qiao Yuanyu still has this political sense.
Qiao Yuanyu was worried, and went back to the house after thinking about it.
Seeing his wife Tian Ke, he remembered that the reason why King Yue visited Qiao's house was because his wife fell into the water.
It was because of the "life-saving grace" that King Yue visited Qiao's house.
"Tell me, what happened during the day and why did you fall into the water?" Qiao Yuanyu asked.
Tian Ke was dressed in light pajamas, with a plump and graceful figure, and a beautiful young woman's demeanor, which only her husband could see.
But Qiao Yuanyu only cared about King Yue's visit at the moment.
Tian Ke bit her lower lip lightly. While recalling, she also remembered the inexplicable warmth and sense of security she felt when she fell into the water and struggled during the day.
According to recollection, she said:
"Concubine. At that time, I went to the bow of the boat with my younger sister to get some air, and then a big wave came over. I didn't check for a while, and was knocked out by the waves. I sank to the bottom of the lake after being dizzy, and was entangled by water plants. Fortunately, His Royal Highness's guards came to the rescue in time."
Tian Ke didn't say anything about the giant dragon, she just thought it was her hallucination when she was drowning, so she didn't say anything.
Qiao Yuanjin frowned tightly upon hearing this, and asked in great confusion:
"There are waves in Xianghu Lake?"
This is a lake, how can there be waves for no reason?
Tian Ke shook his head, expressing that he was not clear.
There were many people on the boat at that time, and they all noticed the unusual waves and the unusual fluctuation of the lake water.
Qiao Yuanjin could feel that something was wrong with his wife falling into the water.
In addition to his wife's remarks, Qiao Yuanjin also asked about Yao Er, who also went into the water to save people in the Bone Training Realm Qiao's Nursing Home.
It is said that:
At that time, Yao Er went into the water to save people, but felt an extraordinary resistance for no reason. When he got to the bottom of the lake, he even saw a snake coiled around the young lady.
It was this big Jiao that roared at them, not letting them approach.
The legend of "Goddess Killing Jiao" in Xianghu Lake is widely spread, and it is easy to associate with people.
Qiao Yuanjin asked:
"Flood Snake, Yao Er said that he saw a Flood Snake on your body."
Tian Ke was taken aback for a moment, remembering the content of the hallucination he experienced at that time:
"Jiao? Like."
"Like what?" Qiao Yuanjin asked.
Tian Kedai frowned slightly, recalling that bad feeling:
"The concubine was choking on the water very much at the time, and was very scared. I had some hallucinations. I must have regarded the aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake as snakes."
When Tian Ke said that, Qiao Yuanjin felt it made sense.
Indeed, the evil dragon is just a legend of hundreds of years.
And the most worthy of Qiao Yuanjin's attention is the visit of King Yue after saving people
How could it be so coincidental that the king of Yue was there at that time, and even saved people, and then came to Qiao's house along the way?
Qiao Yuanjin wondered if there was any connection, or even a conspiracy.
Qiao Yuanjin frowned, while Tian Ke was undressing her husband.
She stroked her thigh secretly.
I don't know why, even though I soaked in cold water during the day, Tian Ke felt extremely dry tonight.
But Qiao Yuanjin ignored his wife's needs, and his mind was full of things about King Yue.
Tian Ke also knew that the visit of the King of Yue was very important to the Qiao family, so he was patient without willfulness.
Husband and wife have different minds, sharing the same bed overnight with different dreams.
The next day, Qiao Yuanjin went to ask His Royal Highness Yue Wang if he was eating well and sleeping well in Qiao's mansion.
And a cryptic question, when will you leave, Lord Yue?
Our Qiao Mansion is grateful and grateful, Your Highness, you have no reason to stay in Qiao Mansion any longer, right?
But Wang Ge's affairs were not done well, so of course he didn't plan to leave.
As for the reason
Seeing Wang Ge's expression was serious, he said solemnly:
"Magistrate Qiao didn't know something. In fact, Lingzheng's falling into the water was not an accident, but a monster secretly causing trouble!"
evildoer! ?
Qiao Yuanjin was taken aback for a moment, almost thinking that she had heard wrong.
Feeling at a loss, he didn't know how to speak to King Shangyue for a while.
Pursing her lips slightly, the puzzled Qiao Yuanjin asked tentatively:
"I don't know what your Highness said?"
Wang Ge heard the words, snorted lightly, and said coldly:
"Gu said it was the evil dragon's resentment and rebellion. A few months ago, this evil dragon brought down natural disasters and wanted to destroy the harvest of the people of my Yue country. Fortunately, the lonely family of immortals helped them to rescue the disaster and snatch the harvest.
But who knows that a few months later, the evil dragon's spirit was still there, and he wanted to make trouble, so Ling Zheng was attacked by that evil dragon. Fortunately, this time, Gu also got the guidance of the immortal family, knowing that this evil beast was going to do evil again , harming the people of my country of Yue, so I squatted on Xianghu Lake specially."
Now Qiao Yuanjin understood, his eyelids twitched, and he thought of His Royal Highness Yue's rumors about "ghosts and gods".
Sure enough, when we saw each other today, we talked like a god!
Seemingly seeing Qiao Yuanjin's disbelief, Wang Ge emphasized:
"Yesterday, those two guards at the Changing Tendon Realm, as well as the Qiao Clan cultivating Bone Realm warriors, saw that vile beast appear underwater, right?"
Qiao Yuanjin was confused again when she heard the words. According to Yao Er's description, it was indeed so.
Could it be that there is really a remnant soul of an evil dragon making trouble?
Qiao Yuanjin was dubious. It was the first time he had experienced such a thing, so he had no idea.
After thinking about it, he tried to ask:
"Then what is your Highness' plan? If there is a monster, how can you tolerate it to harm people?"
Wang Ge nodded slightly, as if affirming Qiao Yuanjin, and continued:
"Gu asked for a way to get rid of demons from the fairy family.
It is said that the evil dragon was beheaded by the goddess, and its blood was scattered in Xianghu Lake. The blood fell into the bottom of the lake and was stained with mud. It is necessary to use the mud of Xianghu Lake as a material to cast a spell, so that the soul of the evil dragon will be scattered, and it will never be able to harm anyone again! "
A passage of Wang Ge is still nagging, Qiao Yuanjin doesn’t quite understand it, so he can only extract a few key words: King Yue wants to dig the silt of Xianghu Lake
Seeing that Qiao Yuanjin didn't understand, the corners of Wang Ge's mouth rose slightly, and he continued:
"So, Gu still needs to temporarily stay in Qiao's mansion for ten days, until he has dug up the mud of this Xianghu Lake, and then he can use the method to get rid of the demon."
Qiao Yuanjin narrowed his eyes slightly, and now he understood.
The King of Feeling Yue didn't want to leave, so he used the excuse of removing evildoers and digging mud to forcefully stay in Qiao's mansion?
What you just said is all made up, right?
Qiao Yuanjin's expression was tense, that is to say, the person in front of him was the King of Yue, otherwise he would have lost face.
Excuse! It's all an excuse!
How can there be so much ado about nothing? Do you really want to find fault with our Qiao family?
He was slandering in his heart, but Qiao Yuanjin was not overjoyed. He asked politely:
"Your Highness, is the theory of ghosts and gods reliable?"
When Wang Ge heard the words, his face suddenly became unkind, and he said dissatisfiedly:
"Magistrate Qiao, are you questioning the king? Or do you not care about the safety of the people around Xianghu Lake? You must know that the one who almost fell into the water before was killed, but Ling Zheng?"
Wang Ge squinted his eyes, and even used the power of luck invisibly.
Qiao Yuanjin suddenly felt extremely oppressed, and it didn't make sense, so she secretly complained.
In the end, he could only grit his teeth and agree: "This minister should regard His Highness's words as the iron law of the golden rule, and care about the safety of the people of Xianghu Lake as the most important thing."
Wang Ge nodded in satisfaction:
"It's so good, then with the cooperation of Laoqiao county magistrate, this dredging must be done."
"Oh, Gu is good at martial arts, and Laoqiao's family has arranged a martial arts arena for Gu. It would be more suitable if you can invite a few martial artists to accompany you."
