Chapter 126 Bad News
There is a saying that outsiders can never understand.
Hingqin is an outsider, and she naturally can't understand. Fortunately, she stared at the teacup on the coffee table and looked at Ye Menglan without finding her extremely shy look.
The other two women, one is Ye Menglan's sister Ye Mengzhu. She is really shy. She only said hello to Xu Han. When she said hello, her face blushed like an apple. After greeting, Xu Han never saw her say anything. She is not like the children of an official eunuch who is famous for her arrogance, but like a country girl who came to visit relatives from the city.
The other is a tall and thin girl. According to the introduction, this person is Zhou Xiaoyu, the daughter of Lord Zhou, a classic official. This person is quick and generous. She tried her best to please Xu Han. She tried to hold Xu Han's hand several times, but she was extremely cleverly avoided by Xu Han. He didn't want to embarrass Ye Menglan if she was not careful. If you show your horse's feet, it will be troublesome.
"It's all because of that damn country bumpkin! Next time I see him again, I will kill him!" Bingqin still remembers the revenge of those two slaps.
No wonder that the children of any official eunuch were slapped twice in public, and their cheeks turned into a piece of pig liver. No one could stand it.
"Xiaoqin, Sister Menglan reminds you that you'd better not mess with this bad guy. I have suffered a great loss in his hands. You will never please him. Maybe you will be caught by him, humiliated fiercely, and maybe you will lose yourself to him. At that time, it will be miserable if you lose both face and body!" Ye Menglan said with a smile.
"Yes, it's definitely not a simple role that can escape under me. I really admire this guy. However, as soon as I saw this guy, I knew that he was not a good stubble, and I also advised you not to mess with him, otherwise he would absolutely mind eating all kinds of them!" Ye Menglan said.
"What size can be eaten all?" Bingqin asked in astonishment, and the other three women were also stunned.
Xu Han giggled and did not answer.
Ye Menglan was so angry that she couldn't wait to jump over and take two bites on Xu Han's arm. However, there were three outsiders present at this time, which made her helpless. However, she learned Xu Han's poisonous tongue again and dared not continue to talk about this topic. She turned around and asked, "Yes, Xiaoqin, tomorrow is the day when our Yunxiazong opens the door to receive the disciples. Are you ready?"
So, several people began to discuss this issue enthusiastically. Xu Han drank tea silently and listened quietly. These were topics that he was extremely concerned about, and naturally it was impossible to turn a deaf ear.
At this moment, a little maid suddenly ran in with a panic look and shouted, "No, it's not good!"
Ye Menglan's face darkened and shouted, "Xiaoqin, what are you doing? Didn't you see that I was meeting guests? How do I usually teach you?"
The maid Xiaoqin's face was very ugly. She quickly pleaded guilty to Ye Menglan, and then said to Bingqin, "Miss Bing, your father is back!"
Ye Menglan became even more angry: "It's a good thing for Lord Bing to come back. Why are you so flustered?"
But then, her face suddenly changed and she quickly looked at Xu Han.
Xu Han saw the maid's look and listened to her words and instantly understood what had happened. Seeing Ye Menglan looking at him, he quickly lost a comforting look at her.
Ye Menglan quickly returned to normal.
"My father will come back when he comes back. Why is he in a panic?" Bingqin looked a little ugly and said indifferently, "I didn't do anything bad here with Sister Menglan."
"Miss Bing, please be sorry for your change, Lord Bing... he..." Xiaoqin's face turned red, and Ai Ai said.
"What happened? Tell me!" Hearing this, the atmosphere in the living room suddenly became tense, and their faces changed greatly. Bingqin's face turned pale. She stood up, rushed over, grabbed Xiaoqin's hand tightly, and asked.
"Lord Bing, Lord Bing, has passed away!" Xiaoqin said with all her strength.
"Dead girl, how dare you make such a joke?! It seems that Sister Menglan usually spoils you too much!" Bingqin suddenly smiled nervously and said.
"Yunxia sent two elders to personally escort the body of Lord Bing back to Lord Bing's house. It is said that the elder Yunxiazong was also seriously injured and flew back to the elders of Yunxiazong. He briefly talked about the incident and asked people to sort out the scene quickly. Then he fainted and is still unconscious. The body of Lord Bing was found by the elders of Yunxiazong at the scene of the accident, and the team of elites brought by Lord Bing survived. The scene was in a mess, and a large number of people from other sects were also seen. Xiaoqin lowered her head, whispered, and finally said, "That's all I've heard."
The whole audience was silent in an instant.
"Dad--!" Bingqin's face finally changed greatly. She shouted and grabbed the door and left.
The maid Xiaoqin also hurried out.
After a while, Ye Mengzhu and Zhou Xiaoyu also hurriedly left. Who is still in the mood to chat when this happens?
Only Xu Han and Ye Menglan were left in the living room. They looked at each other and were speechless for a long time.
"Brother Xu, you don't have to have any psychological burden. In fact, to be honest, Lord Bing's family has always been arrogant and domineering. The so-called father must have a daughter. The character of Lord Bing can be seen from Xiaoqin. With the position of the imperial army and his profound cultivation, he has done a lot of bad things, and many of them have been killed by him. I guess there are many people in Black Rock City who will set off firecrackers to celebrate his death.
After a moment of silence, Ye Menglan suddenly sent a voice to Xu Han.
Some words can never be said. Although there are only two people in the living room at this moment, there is no need to worry about anyone eavesdropping, but there is an accident in everything, so Ye Menglan did not say these words out of her mouth.
"My father also mentioned Lord Bing's character many times and complained a lot. However, he is a military, not his father's subordinate, so his father can't help him, so he has to let him go," Ye Menglan said again.
"Oh?! Isn't the army a subordinate of the city owner? Xu Han had no idea about these official positions in officialdom. He was deeply surprised to hear Ye Menglan say so.
"Of course not. Black Rock City is very special. Because it is an independent border city, the city owner is actually quite a county guard, mainly governing the civil affairs of Black Rock City. In fact, the military is a county lieutenant, mainly in charge of the military force stationed inside and outside the Black Rock City. The city owner and the Dian army are of equal rank, and both are awarded silver seal blue silk and rank 2,000 stones. Ye Menglan explained.
"So that's it," Xu Han suddenly appeared.
"Actually, there has been a gap between my father and Lord Bing, but their relationship does not affect the relationship between us women. Bingqin's little sister often comes to me," Ye Menglan said.
"It seems that Bingqin is not much younger than you, but why are you already a core disciple of Yunxia Sect, with five-grade real-life cultivation, but she is still a mortal?" Xu Han said doubtfully.
"Lord Bing was transferred from other armies to Black Rock City in the first half of the year, and Bingqin also came here in the first half of the year," Ye Menglan said.
"So that's it," Xu Han nodded and said thoughtfully, "She often comes to play with you, which may also be a strategy. Her father has just been transferred to Black Rock City. Although he is at the same level as your father, the strong dragon does not suppress the local snake. It is undoubtedly a good strategy to start from relatives.
"Brother Xu, have you thought too much? Why don't I feel it?" Ye Menglan glanced at Xu Han during the day and said.
"I'm a fan of the authorities, I think Bingqin is much more than you." Xu Han has been deeply involved in the world and is more accurate.
"Well, maybe you're right," Ye Menglan seemed to suddenly think of something and said, "Lord Zhou, a citizen, once raised such a question to his father, but his father was bold and did not take these daughters' affairs seriously. At that time, he laughed. Now Brother Xu mentioned it again, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, but as soon as her father passed away, he didn't know where she would go.
The two of you said a word and I said, although on the surface, they seemed to sit still, just sipping fragrant tea one after another, but they chatted secretly and happily.
From the conversation, Xu Han knew many stories of Black Rock City and many anecdotes of officialdom, which invisibly gained a lot of insight.
Just after his death, the two talked about their achievements and demerits here, which was really inappropriate. What's more, the death of Bing Tianyun was caused by Xu Han, but a little guilt in Xu Han's heart gradually disappeared in the process of conversation. Xu Han has always hated powerful and domineering people and believes that these people are more than enough to die. If Bing Tianyun is a good official, he may have some grudges in his heart, but now, he has no grudges at all.
After two or three teas, the maid came in and reported that the banquet had been set. Please come in.
