235 Bauhinia family
As soon as these words were said, the young man was a little surprised. He stayed in the city for more than two months and conducted a detailed investigation of the city. He knew that Bai Min and Bai Qianxin were sun god servants, so he naturally didn't dare to mess with him. But the little guy was very much in his appetite. He just liked the little girl, but he was slapped by someone just now.
He looked at Bai Min, then turned his head and asked Chen Xiansong: "Your Excellency, how are you treating guests?"
Chen Xiansong laughed twice and yawned in a vague manner: "Sage Yan said to repay grievances with kindness, but I don't like this sentence. I prefer to repay grievances with straightforwardness. If the guests are not friendly, why should I treat him as a guest?... Then again, who are you, please report your name first."
After he finished speaking, the six women had different reactions. Bai Qianxin admired her, Bai Min was still expressionless, and the little guy was very excited. After all, Chen Xiansong stood up for her, Catherine gently frowned, Alice was a little worried, while Thirteenth Sister had a strange look, but most of her face agreed.
In the Zhendan Kingdom, even if the "scholar" is not good at doing well, he dares to point at the nose of the powerful and the noble. Chen Xiansong's practice is very consistent with the historical perception of those who think deeply about souls in the Zhendan Kingdom. What she strangely is that scholars rarely offend a powerful and the noble for a woman. In the eyes of scholars, women can be worn with their brothers like clothes, and Chen Xiansong seems to cherish his "clothes".
"Don't you know me?" The young man stroked his swollen hands, with a strange expression: "Then why did you send me an invitation?"
"Your Excellency, I sent the invitation." The vice president stood up, and after he saluted, he said slowly: "We President have been away some time ago and have only returned to the city recently. Many things have happened afterwards. I believe you know that you are also a very reasonable thing. "
"You are a very loyal slave. On the first day of your takeover, you know how to start turning him into a slander and flatter your master." The young man laughed twice: "I am very optimistic about a loyal person like you. How about it? Come to our family, I can give you more rights."
The vice president said with gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness, but I have signed a lifelong contract with the association. I can't vote for them again, which is a pity."
Among the aristocratic class, everyone is fighting openly and secretly, and everyone lives with a mask. It is difficult to argue whether the truth or falsehood of what he says is true or false. If he praises you, he may not really like you. He scolds you, and most of the time, he may not really have something to do with you. The vice president has been ups and downs for decades. How can he not know this? However, the other party is a nobleman, and the face he should give, and good things must be said.
The young man also knew that the vice president was just saying good things and let everyone have a way out. Besides, there was no such thing as a lifelong contract in the association. The young man also knew that he looked at the vice president meeting with a cold look for a while and laughed again: "It's a pity, but the situation in the association has been a bit bad recently. Can you be sure that you can stay in the association all the time?"
There is a threat of nakedness hidden in these words. The vice president smiled: "There is no thousand-year-old family, only ten thousand-year-old soul-thinkers association. The banquet is about to begin. Why not go in and talk to other adults? This is a rare opportunity to connect with feelings. After all, the only one who can invite the nobles in the city at once is our Soul-thinkers association."
The vice president was showing the association's connections and strength to the other party. When the young man heard this, his pupils shrank, his eyebrows were raised very high, and then he laughed angrily: "You president don't even know who I am. It's not good for me to go in."
"President, your name is Duncan, and he is one of the heirs of a big family in the royal city. I heard that he is also Comos' cousin." The vice president explained to Chen Xiansong: "He came here to investigate the cause of His Excellency Comos' death at the order of the family."
"Your Excellency Comos's experience is sad." Chen Xiansong expressed his condolences indifferently, and then continued: "I hope that you can catch the murderer as soon as possible, and the banquet is about to begin. Please follow me in."
Duncan followed behind Hyun-song on the other side. His eyes glanced at the little guy again, and then said, "My cousin Comos is very strong, and his death is very miserable. I have visited the scene. He fought with the murderer for a long time and fought very hard. In Black Rock City, there seems to be no one else who can do this except your two maids. I don't know if you have any ideas."
Chen Xiansong didn't know that Bai Qianxin killed Comos, so he said with confidence: "You are really kidding. Even if you take a step back, it's because Sister Qianxin and Xiao Min killed Comos. You have to tell me some evidence. Without evidence, you can't falsely accuse someone."
"Our Bauhinia family only needs to know who the murderer is, and never need evidence." Duncan said softly, as if he was talking about a very common thing: "My cousin was going to marry her elder sister, but she didn't expect that this happened. The elderly in the family were very angry. Don't you want to say anything to prove that they have nothing to do with this matter?"
Chen Xian smiled: "You should prove that our sister Qianxin and Xiaomin are related to this matter first."
Bai Qianxin heard this from behind and smiled softly.
Duncan was confused. He was very calm when Chen Xiansong spoke without any slightest force. His intuition told him that Chen Xiansong really had nothing to do with this matter, but... he always felt that this matter must have something to do with Chen Xiansong, because when Comos left the royal city and came to Black Rock City, he had a meal with him. At that time, Comos talked about Chen Xiansong, but he looked disgusted. Comos' death must have a direct or indirect relationship with him.
Just when Duncan was confused, several people entered the banquet hall. Chen Xiansong walked onto the balcony on the second floor of the hall and said a lot, but what he said was streamlined, and it was nothing more than thanking everyone for attending his inauguration banquet. If you have anything to do in the future, you can help, and if you can, you will find a way to help. Finally, the banquet officially began.
In short, this tone is learned from the urban ethics film and television drama filmed by natural people in the 21st century. Although it is a bit untuned, because Chen Xian Songchang's soul-thoughtful thoughts, everyone regards it as a special hobby or personality style, and no one thinks it is rude.
After getting off the balcony, Chen Xiansong was quickly flooded by the crowd. He kept smiling and chatting with everyone. Because it was not a social dance party, no one went to chat with Bai Qianxin, Bai Min and others. They were just watching from afar, discussing and envious of Chen Xiansong's blessings.
After politely communicating with the nobles for a short period of time, Catherine, Bai Qianxin, Thirteenth Sister, and Alice took another group of noble ladies to the second floor, leaving Bai Min to protect Chen Xiansong's safety. She was wearing a white dress, like a little white in the colorful red, quiet and cold, and I don't know how many men she fascinated.
The little guy opened his stomach and ate and drank. Duncan held the wine glass and his eyes followed her. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this little thing was extremely beautiful and cute, and it was a rare treasure in the world. If he could not own it, he would regret it for the rest of his life. However, this is Black Rock City, not a place where he could do whatever he wanted. In addition, this little thing is also a soul-thinking person. If he snatched it in public, the consequences may be very serious.
A coachman followed him and suddenly whispered: "Little Master, we still have more than 30,000 gold coins. If you really like her, we can buy her for 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. A soul-thinking person becomes a mistress and will not lose the face of our Bauhinia family. I think even the old master will not think that this is a loss-making business."
"One or 20,000 gold coins are a bit expensive." Hard to touch his chin: "I'll think of other ways first..." He murmured for a few minutes, and then went to contact other nobles with a glass of wine.
Aristocratic banquets like this are excellent social places. Most of the transactions between the nobles were secretly negotiated on such occasions. Moreover, the banquet held by the association this time almost brought all the nobles in the entire city to one place. No one was willing to waste their time such a good opportunity, and there were many words that might be able to negotiate a "business".
Time passed slowly, and it was almost midnight, and the banquet finally ended. The nobles had almost gone. Chen Xiansong smiled all night, and the muscles on his face had almost turned into stones. While rubbing his face with both hands to relieve muscle fatigue, Zelonger and his sister Lux walked over.
"I have put the things in the box. You can take a look first. If you sign it, you will bring the things I need tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Zelonger was about to say more, but he saw Duncan walking towards him. He hurriedly said softly: "That unlucky guy is here, I'll leave first. He is so annoying. In the past two months, he has gone to our city lord's mansion to ask us to assist in investigating the cause of Comos' death. I'm afraid of seeing him now, so you should take care of yourself."
After saying that, he left with his sister. Before leaving, Lux was reluctant to look at Chen Xiansong, but after seeing Bai Min, her expression was obviously disappointed.
Zelonger walked forward and Duncan came to Chen Xiansong.
"You can have fun at night." Chen Xiansong put down his hands rubbing his face muscles, looked at the young man in front of him and asked: "It's already late at night. You haven't gone back to rest yet. Do you want to talk to me about anything?"
"Of course, there is indeed a very important thing." The little guy who looked not far away and was still stuffing something into his mouth to eat, and then his eyes fell on Chen Xiansong's face again: "During this period, your Soul Thinker Association seems to be a little trouble, and it seems to be a little troublesome in the royal family. Do you have any ideas about this?"
