Chapter 68 Love is too short

May 4, 2018

In the early morning, the city was already full of noise and crowds of people were everywhere in the streets and alleys.

The city has not calmed down for two consecutive days, and the question about the candidate for the city lord has always been troubled by the golden jade man.

Zhao Hongwu and Zhao Hongxue, two veterans who were chosen by Zhao Chenlu, completely destroyed their reputation in just one day, and the entire Jinyu City's veterans were disgusted by the Jinyu people. On May 2, the candidate issue further complicated. Zhao Chenlu's younger brother Zhao Jincheng suddenly appeared and announced his campaign for the city lord, as if he was directly pouring cold water on the hot oil, and the whole city was in a state of turmoil.

For the infamous veterans, Zhao Jincheng's appearance was like a savior. Zhao Hongxue and Zhao Hongwu couldn't wait to express their willingness to retreat behind the scenes and provide young people with a stage to display, and directly give up the position of the city lord to Zhao Jincheng. As long as Zhao Chenlu nodded, the new city lord would be released.

For the Jinyu Man, the square blue brick face was at least more friendly than the old faces of Zhao Hongxue and Zhao Hongwu. In fact, during his time when he was the eldest son of Jinyu City, most Jinyu Man also expected that Zhao Chenlu would get tired of playing in the position of the city lord in the future, and would probably pass the position to him. Now he stood up in the chaotic period of Jinyu City, which is in line with the right time, place and people.

However, Zhao Chenlu did not give a positive answer to the elders' actions of giving up the wise. She neither flatly rejected nor explained the reasons, but only made the two elders' applications sink into a sea of ​​thought.

Without Zhao Chenlu's approval, who dared to randomly designate the position of the city lord?

Therefore, the situation that seemed to be a foregone conclusion increased infinite variables, and the golden and jade man in the situation had to endure this torment.

At the same time, in the city lord's mansion, Zhao Chenlu looked at Zhao Jincheng with a low and lost face, and was both angry and funny.

"Jincheng, although I never thought you were such an amazing talent, I didn't think you were a fool. Although your skull is deformed, your brain is not deformed. But how could you do such a stupid thing? It's so funny to say this. The candidate for the Lord of Jinyu is my designated. When is it the turn to choose? Jinyu City is not a Democratic City!"

Zhao Jincheng was ashamed of the ground, lowering his head, and his face formed a perfect parallel to the smooth ground.

Zhao Chenlu said again: "What's more, can't you see the situation in Jinyu City? Is the position of the city lord so easy to sit in? Although the elders are stupid, they are at least self-aware. They know that this position is unavailable, and they all want to find a substitute and then take advantage of it. But you took the initiative to jump out, do you think you are qualified to take over my shift now?"

Of course, Zhao Jincheng knew how far he was, and never felt that he was a qualified successor. Although he was trained as a successor back then, what his sister taught him was just some ordinary ways of doing things. Zhao Chenlu never said those immortal methods that really made Jin Yucheng extraordinary. Of course, Zhao Jincheng did not blame his sister because he knew very well that it must be a magical skill that he could never control with his talent.

"So, why did you have to train me as your successor for so many years?"

Zhao Chenlu said, "Because I'm bored."

"..." Zhao Jincheng suddenly raised his head, opened his mouth and felt that his three views were a little shattered, "I'm bored?"

Zhao Chenlu said: "Or it is because you are talented and extremely talented?"

"..." Zhao Jincheng suffered a heavy blow again and could not say a word for a long time.

Zhao Chenlu was very patient with this younger brother and explained seriously: "You are the closest brother in my life. I will always try my best to support you in doing what you want to do. However, whether I teach you the skills or the elixirs and magic weapons I have selected for you, they are not the best. Don't you understand the reason?"

Of course Zhao Jincheng understood.

The most taboo for those who practice immortals is to be eager to achieve success and to encourage growth. If you have the most talent, you should practice the exquisite skills. The principle of being unequal in the world of immortal cultivation is common sense. Zhao Jincheng is a rare genius in the outside world, but compared with his sister, he suddenly becomes dim, so he does not have the qualification to enjoy the top treatment, both in terms of martial arts and elixirs.

Zhao Chenlu said: "By the same principle, based on your talent, you are not suitable to be the lord of Jinyu City, so..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Jincheng couldn't help but refute.

"My talent in the practice of immortality is limited, I admit that, but why can't I be the city lord? Although I definitely can't compare to my sister, you are very talented, but can't I be as capable as my father? He can be the city lord, why can't I?"

Zhao Chenlu said: "Although Zhao Hongxue's ability is mediocre, he was handsome when he was young."

"..." Zhao Jincheng felt like he was hit on the face by a hammer, and he was stunned.

Zhao Chenlu explained: "The most important thing for politicians is not intelligence or courage, but charm. Being able to attract others to use for you, making others more likely to accept your views, and making mistakes is easier to be forgiven. These abilities are far more important than designing wonderful strategies, implementing difficult strategies, etc. Although Zhao Hongxue's ability is mediocre and courageous, she barely has a good face. When she was in office, the support rate of women was not low. If she hadn't met me, his regime would be quite stable. But you..."

Zhao Jincheng touched his face. Over the past few years, he has always felt that although his face is a bit strange, his facial features are upright and elegant. Even if he can't be called Yushu, he is at least a handsome man. However, since he went to Shencheng once, his three views have been shattered.

"I, I can have plastic surgery." Zhao Jincheng said miserably, "The plastic surgery technology is so advanced now, why is it difficult to change my face?"

Zhao Chenlu said: "If you change this face, what is the difference between you and passers-by? What are the characteristics that people can remember? If you live a lifetime and become like everyone else, it is better to die."

"..." Zhao Jincheng almost knelt down to his sister, "I really would rather be a passerby!"

"Then you go and die. You are likely to be a passerby after reincarnation." Zhao Chenlu smiled, not taking his younger brother's psychological shadow seriously at all, and said, "What's more, I took the City Lord to find someone. Before I found that person, I will continue to do this position forever. To find that person, one hundred years or two hundred years may not be enough, so I never planned to cultivate any successors, but just to be a good person to please the people and pass the time. I didn't expect that even you took this matter seriously. I thought there were enough tips for you in normal times."

Zhao Jincheng was in tears, how could I think of my sister, you were just bored!

"So, just pretend that you have never happened before when you run for the city lord. Arrange yourself in two days to get into a devilish accident and exit this embarrassing stage."

Zhao Jincheng was silent for a long time.

In the past thirty years, he has never disobeyed his sister's will. Whenever Zhao Chenlu said something in an orderly tone, Zhao Jincheng would do it without hesitation. Over time, it has become a habit engraved in his bone marrow.

But this time, Zhao Jincheng was really unwilling to give up.

"Sister, I think I still want to give it a try, even if I lack ability or have limited charm, but I..."

"Oh, then you go."

"..." Zhao Jincheng was dumbfounded again.

The generous speech that had been brewing for a long time, but just finished the preliminary preparation, it actually came to an abrupt end!

Zhao Chenlu said, "My principle is that if people want to commit suicide, I will never stop them, even if you are my younger brother. I have explained all the principles that should be told. If you still have to be stubborn, then you can do whatever you want. By the way, hand over the girl who instigated you."

Zhao Jincheng was surprised: "Encourage..."

Zhao Chenlu said, "With your personality, if I don't go to find you, how could you come out of that courtyard? Someone must have found you and lobbyed you to come out as a target. And now in Jinyu City, she is the only one who has the courage and eloquence."

Zhao Jincheng sighed that his sister was worthy of being an older sister, and then betrayed his partner without hesitation.

A moment later, Qian Yue came to Zhao Chen's face with a winning smile.

"Sister Zhao, we're meeting again, how about it, I..."

Before she finished speaking, Qian Yue felt her body suddenly become a hundred times heavier. She couldn't help but kneel forward, and her knee hit the stiff jade brick, causing her to burst into tears.

But the torture is just beginning.

"Do you think I appreciate your self-righteousness?"

Qian Yue struggled and said, "Even if you are smart, at least you are thinking bravely. It is much better than being ignorant and ignorant."

"The idiot's thinking only makes people want to laugh."

Qian Yue said again: "It's good to be able to smile at your idol."

"So, did I laugh?"

“…I, I will work harder.”

After being questioned aggressively by Zhao Chenlu, Qian Yue's psychological defense line finally reached the verge of collapse and disintegration, and tears were already rolling in her eyes.

After completing the feat of bullying the small with the big, Zhao Chenlu sighed: "It's true, he's becoming more and more like Shang Yatou."

Behind him, Tianwai Divine Sword asked, "How can I see it?"

"When I just forced her to kneel down, I suddenly felt a sense of pleasure rising from the bottom of my heart, as if I had been revenge for many years. So I judged that the elements of Concubine Shang Lan on this girl were getting stronger and stronger, and could already trigger the pleasure switch in my body. If I let it go, decades later, this would probably be another form of Shang Yatou."

"So that's it, so what?"

"I can't wait for decades." Zhao Chenlu said resolutely.
