Chapter 399: Lord Xiao’s visit (2)
"How can you be so embarrassed?" Long Qin Ike's face was flushed with excitement. The pill that Xiao Han took out must have had great effect. He had experienced it himself. The life-extending golden elixir he ate can be said to be a priceless treasure. With such a pill, it means that he has an extra life. What is it not a priceless treasure?
Treasures are dead, and no matter how precious treasures are, they are not as good as human life!
"Haha, Mr. Long, please don't refuse. If you don't accept it, I will not dare to come again next time." Xiao Han said.
"Okay, then I'm disrespectful!" Long Qin Ake was extremely happy and ordered German to accept the box.
Galo handed the box to Gman, who solemnly took it and put it on the table beside Longqin Ike. Then Bi Jing stood up unusually at Longqin Ike's lower head.
"Old Long, I am here this time. First, I want to visit you and the head of the German family, and also to visit Miss Rongxin. When she was in the Orc Capital, she left in a hurry, and I am a little worried." Xiao Han said.
If you are not at ease, what are you worried about? Are you interested in Rong Xin? Long Qin and Ike suddenly felt troubles coming. A graceful lady and a gentleman are good friends. Xiao Han dominates the country. In time, he may be another major super force on the mainland.
And there is another embarrassment. He is also his savior. If he is really interested in Rong Xin, what should he do?
Now a fifth prince of the Purple Gold Empire has been stirred up, and another Xiao Han's words are killed, and the three men are fighting for their great-granddaughter. In the past, he woke up laughing when he fell asleep. Now, this cup of bitter water is probably three points more bitter than Coptis water!
"Lord Xiao..." Long Qin Aike spoke.
"Just call me Xiao Han, younger generation." Xiao Han said hurriedly.
"Xiao Han, since you are Rong Xin's good friend, I won't hide it from you. Rong Xin has been engaged to Situ Jun of the Situ family, and it is likely that she will be married recently. According to the tradition of our family, girls cannot meet men before the wedding, and even fiancées cannot do it. Of course, except for relatives and elders!" Long Qin Aike said as if he was embarrassed.
The old guy was not slow. He thought of a countermeasure in a blink of an eye, and he didn't miss it. He first blocked all the things Xiao Han wanted to say. Awesome!
"Mr. Long, since the noble family has this tradition, we cannot meet male guests before marriage. I am a woman, so I can always meet Sister Rong Xin, right?" Zi Jing said.
"Realistically speaking, Mrs. Xiao is not an outsider, but Rong Xin is not in the mansion now, so she is out." Long Qin Aike said in a hurry. No matter what, let's go over the level in front of her first.
"I've gone out, where have I gone?" Zi Jing asked.
"This..." Long Qin Ike was a little angry when he saw the old god Geman. When his ancestor encountered a problem, you didn't say a word, waiting to watch the show? "Geman, where has Rongxin been?"
"Old ancestor, she seems to be saying that she is going to somewhere, let me think about it?" Seeing the fire on his head, German quickly reached out and grabbed his head, thinking hard.
"By the way, I remembered that she went to Nanshan." German's quick intelligence was not under Longqin Ike. In the blink of an eye, she thought of countermeasures to deal with.
"Nanshan?" Zi Jing asked, "Where is it?"
"Mrs. Xiao, Nanshan is Rongxin's mother's hometown. When her grandmother heard that she was going to get married and would marry so far away, she was reluctant to let her go and said she would pick her up and live for a few days. Yesterday, she seemed to say hello to me and then went." German said with a nose and eyes.
The two grandparents and grandchildren are really not easy to deal with. Xiao Han thought to himself, but he didn't have a plan. Xiao Han had a plan and said, "Since Rong Xin is not in the mansion, then let's go to Nanshan. Please ask the head of the German family to tell us about the location of Nanshan?"
"Are you not busy? Rong Xin will go back and stay for two or three days, and will be back soon. It's not too late to see you again!" Longqin Ike said, "You come from afar, why do I have to welcome you!"
"Old Long is polite. The year is approaching, so we just came to visit. Rong Xin was in a hurry. We thought something had happened at home, so we came over to see if we could help." Xiao Han said.
"The wife of the virtuous are so kind-hearted. I'm very nice. Everything at home is fine. I'm so sorry for you." Longqin Aike praised.
"It should be that we are all friends of Miss Rongxin." Xiao Han continued, "If your friends are in trouble, they should help."
At this time, Ge Yu, who was investigating the innocent and innocent missing, ran over with sweat from his forehead. He did not dare to enter the door directly, but instead found a guard, whispered quietly, and then asked him to go in and report.
The guest and host had a great conversation. Suddenly, they walked in alone, whispered a few times in German's ear, and the huge living room became quiet.
German nodded, signaling the guard to go out first, then walk over, and whisper a few words in Longqin Aike's ear.
In this situation, Xiao Han didn't bother to eavesdrop on what they said. This was a very impolite behavior. However, Xiao Han learned lips from Han Xiyue for a few days, and German did not deliberately cover his lips, so what he said was generally understood by Xiao Han.
"Old ancestor, Ge Yu reported that he found a secret passage under the bed of honor. I don't know where it leads." Geman said almost this means.
Geman now knows that his ancestor suspected that the earth-based god Sandy was involved in the disappearance of Rong Xin. No matter how he defended it, he would not believe it. Once the ancestor identified something, it would be difficult to reverse his views, so he almost didn't need to think about it and reported Geyu's words to Longqin. Even if he wanted to hide it, Longqin. As long as he asked Geyu for inquiries, everything was revealed, so he reported it truthfully.
Xiao Han had been secretly observing Long Qin and Aike, and found that after hearing Geman's report, his eyes involuntarily contracted. After analyzing the news that Geman reported, he felt relieved. Rong Xin had escaped from the Ike family from the tunnel. If she was still under house arrest, Geman would not need to report like this.
This authentic entrance was told by Geman. If he wanted to report the news, he would have reported it long ago. He would never secretly tell Long Qin and Ike in front of him. If he contacted the nervous Gyu outside, Xiao Han could now completely conclude that Rong Xin was no longer in the Ike mansion, and the people from the Ike family had not been able to find her yet.
He came to visit Long Qin today. One of the purposes of Ike was to determine whether Rongxin Ike had left the Ike family. Now that the news has basically been confirmed, he was relieved.
"Old Long, what happened?" Xiao Han asked. Since he was present, it seems that he should ask politely and symbolically, otherwise wouldn't he be talking so much about the words he cared about just now?
"No, it's just a little thing. Geman, please accompany me Xiao Han and Mrs. Xiao, I'll be with me!" Long Qin Ike stood up and said to Geman.
"Mr. Long, please give me some advice!" Xiao Han smiled politely.
Long Qin Aike walked out in a hurry, which showed how anxious he was.
"Old Ancestor!" As soon as Ge Yu saw Long Qin and Aike came out of it, he quickly called out.
"Stop talking nonsense, follow me!" Long Qin and Ike's words revealed a sense of coldness, which scared Geyu so much that he followed him quickly.
…Chrysanthemum platform…quick…
As the two of them gradually faded away, the sound became vaguely unpleasant.
"Old Long is really decisive in his work!" Xiao Han exclaimed.
"This is how my ancestors are. They don't like to be procrastinated when doing things the most." German said.
"Four people, it's not a big idea to sit here. Why don't you let Geman lead the four people to wander around the mansion?" Geman suggested.
"So great!" Xiao Han nodded. With such a large thousand-year-old family, the division of the pattern in the mansion should indeed be learned from, especially management experience, which is also a great subject. You can't underestimate it.
It is these inconspicuous little regulations that have supported a huge and enduring family, which are all valuable wealth, and no one can get a deep understanding of it.
"The Ike family has gone through more than three thousand years, and there are no more than one hundred people who have the opportunity to visit the Ike Mansion. Lord Xiao, you may be the last one." German said with some silence in his words.
"Although the orc invasion of the Ike family was damaged, it was not damaged yet. The strength was still there. The city of Ike was a prosperous scene. Why did the Geman family say that?" Xiao Han knew that Geman might be the deepest hidden person in the Ike family, but not just because he provided a set of secret ways to help Rong Xin get out of trouble, he could be heart-warming. When he met for the first time, Xiao Han felt that Geman was even deeper than Longqin. Ike's temple. If it were not for cultivation or because of his lack of fighting for power, Lao Longqin might not be the opponent of his honest and loyal grandson.
"With the eyes of Lord Xiao, I can't tell that it's just the prosperity on the surface." German said, "Once the orcs send troops, the Purple Gold Empire is likely to be erased from the mainland map. The Ike family is just a family of the Purple Gold Empire, and it is difficult to escape the fate of destruction."
"The orcs have great combat power. I was deeply touched when I was in the orc imperial capital. However, they have only improved a little in the past two years. It is probably not that easy to swallow the Purple Gold Empire in one bite. Besides, it is easy to win, and it is not easy to occupy. If the orcs want to gain a foothold in the human family, it is obviously impossible to change everything." Xiao Han said.
"Master Xiao didn't know that the Orc Empire had already designated the humans under his rule as third-class citizens. As long as humans pay taxes according to the rules, they can still live in the Orc Empire. More and more people from orc-occupied areas have quietly returned. Moreover, the Orcs have also abolished the slavery system and will only divide the surname into third-class. Although humans are third-class citizens, according to the Orc Empire's ear policy, as long as they work hard, they will live a better life than under the rule of our Purple Gold Empire!" German said.
"Is there such a thing?" Xiao Han said in surprise. If this is true, then the orcs' goal is not just as simple as the Purple Gold Country. The orcs' changes to humans' strategies are a major change for humans.
The orcs went from barbaric to civilization. The Beast King's courage was indeed not simple. They just didn't know who was the one who led the orc's reform this time?
"If this continues, I'm afraid that the civilians in the Purple Gold Empire who were oppressed by the nobles will be greatly affected. The orcs are sparsely populated, and even fewer are good at farming and weaving. Although the northern provinces they occupied are not the main grain production areas, they can be cultivated after all. Once grain production is restored, it will be difficult for humans to use food to restrain orcs." German said worriedly.
"The German family leader is too worried. Orcs have a great demand for food. If they rely on themselves to solve it, it will not be able to solve it in a day or two." Xiao Han said.
"What you said makes sense, I won't say it anymore. Unfortunately, it's winter now. If it's spring, it's full of flowers, which is very beautiful." German brought Xiao Han into the "Liuyuan" where he lives. As the head of the Ike family, he naturally had the best food, living, and using it. Longqin Ike did not deduct anything from this.
"It's a pity, but I can come back next year!" Xiao Han smiled.
"Next year?" German said, "It's hard to say whether Ike City will still belong to the Purple Gold Empire at this time next year."
"The head of the German family, the qualifying match of the All Continental Academy will be held in the Imperial City of the Purple Gold Empire. As long as the Orc Empire does not attack the Purple Gold Empire at that time, I will definitely come!" Xiao Han said.
"Oh, if you don't say it, I almost forgot about this. My Ike family also has a college of 1 or 2, but the reputation is not as good as your Crescent Academy. You may still compete on the same stage. Lord Xiao must give in to us!" German smiled.
"That's not necessarily the ranking of Ike Academy is among the top of all colleges in the mainland, and my Crescent Academy is at the bottom." Xiao Han said.
"That's what happened twenty years ago, and it has changed a lot in twenty years." German said with a long breath.
"The head of the German family, when he was in the orc imperial capital, I heard Rong Xin mention that she did not want to marry that Situ Jun. Why did the head of the family decide to let her marry into the Situ family?" Xiao Han asked tentatively, "I am not trying to interfere with the family's family's internal affairs, but I don't understand or be curious."
German was also a little confused about Xiao Han's background. He had a little thought just now, and he had the same idea as Long Qin and Ike. Will Xiao Han like Rong Xin? But in the end he didn't seem to hear an excessive language or excitement. It might be a good concealment, or it might be that others didn't have that much thought. Although Xiao Han is said to be lustful and romantic, he is also very capable. There are so many wives in his family, all of them are beautiful and beautiful, but they can live in harmony and give full play to their talents. The prosperity of a Fengcheng is simply enviable.
Such means are probably something that ordinary people can have.
"This is the unanimous decision of the family and her voluntary choice." German said vaguely.
"Oh, is this Rong Xin's own choice?" Xiao Han asked in surprise.
"This is naturally. If it weren't for her own decision, how could she have forced her to marry into the Situ family?" German said cautiously. This is the Ike family, and the ancestors have many eyes and have been hiding for so many years, so it would not be possible for a while.
"So that's how it is." Xiao Han thought about it.
"But, I heard from Sister Rong Xin that what she hates the most is Situ Jun. Why is she still willing to marry this person?" Zi Jing inserted and asked.
"Xiao Jing, since the head of the family said that Rong Xin was voluntary, it must be voluntary. Can you still believe the head of the Geman family?" Xiao Han rebuked lightly.
"Oh!" Zi Jing's pretty face turned slightly red, and she hurriedly said, "Head of the German family, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted what you said."
German's old face turned slightly red, but he was born dark, so he couldn't see any changes. This dark face helped him a lot.
He knew very well whether Rong Xin was voluntary. I'm afraid you knew it too. German felt a little moved and asked tentatively: "Did Lord Xiao come to my city this morning?"
"No, we have been there for two days." Xiao Han said frankly. With the energy of the Ike family, it is easy to find out his whereabouts. If he hides it, it will give people a feeling of dishonest. Anyway, there is no need for him to hide it!
"It's been two days, why..." German was shocked. A person like Xiao Han was the focus of the family's attention. Why have they been under your eyes and noses? They didn't find it? They also asked someone to come to inform me before they knew whether the head of the Ike family's intelligence department had slept hard these two days or hadn't woken up from a hangover!
"We concealed our identity a little bit. If the head of the family knows, then we will not be very free." Xiao Han smiled and gave a reason that seemed to be explained.
Whether Geman believed it or not, he still knew that some weird people had special preferences. Although Xiao Han was not a weird person, he brought two people when he went out, one of them was a sworn brother, which shows that he was a man who did not like pomp and red tape.
This kind of person also has a taste for Geman, and he doesn't like Long Qin. Ike's attitude as an ancestor is always surrounded by people. He can't go here or play there. How tiring it would be to live!
"Is City Lord Xiao a person who likes freedom?" German smiled, and temporarily believed Xiao Han's explanation.
"Human life is precious, but love is more expensive. If it is for freedom, both can be abandoned!" The unnatural poem "Freedom and Love" blurted out.
If I go back for hundreds of years on Earth, it would be shameless plagiarism. However, in this other world, although I have a guilty mentality, it is not that obvious. This is what I have learned. Isn’t what I have learned my own?
"Good poem!" German exclaimed, "I didn't expect that Lord Xiao's poetry has such profound attainments, and those minstrels are far inferior to you."
