Yecheng City Lord's Mansion is the largest mansion in Yecheng, and it is also the most central area of Yecheng. It has a radius of more than ten miles, and the entire City Lord's Mansion is a huge palace-style palace, which can be said to be extremely luxurious.
The city lord's mansion is divided into four gardens: east, west, north and south, and the middle is where the city lord lives.
The people in Dongyuan are all guards, the people in Xiyuan are all the capable generals of the city lord, the people in Nanyuan are the concubines, and the people in Beiyuan are the children of the city lord. Unexpectedly, the four gardens in the east, west, south and north are still well-off.
Except like today, so many people can make the city lord's mansion lively.
Li Ling took Hei Lin to Dongyuan. However, there was a sign hanging at the door of Dongyuan that no one should enter. Obviously, no one except the guards was allowed to enter.
It took a while to walk from Dongyuan to Nanyuan, but Nanyuan can be entered, and there are many maids in it. There are also main rooms and side rooms in Nanyuan. The main room is for wives and concubines, and
The side room is for the maid.
Coming here, Li Ling got to see the life of the city lord. It was really the life of a local emperor, full of concubines! Maybe a different woman would accompany the city lord to bed every night.
Just as Li Ling was passing by Nanyuan, he saw a man in blue clothes walking hurriedly towards Beiyuan. Li Ling found it strange, so he said to Hei Lin: "We are following that man, maybe we will meet him."
Any unexpected gains?"
"That man looked like he was in a hurry. What happened?" Hei Lin also noticed something strange about the man in blue.
"It must not be a good thing. Let's follow. You see clearly, anything that is not good for Ye City Lord is good for us." Li Ling took Hei Lin's hand and followed Na Lan secretly.
Behind the man in clothes.
The man in blue sneaked into the middle courtyard from Nanyuan and seemed to be heading towards Ye City Lord's palace. However, Li Ling and Hei Lin looked at each other and felt that this guy must be someone who was not kind to Ye City Lord.
The man in blue walked to a central courtyard door and saw guards. He pretended to be alone and drunk, cursing and trying to rush in. Who would have expected that he would be stopped by the two guards.
"Who are you? Did you break into the city lord's yard?" the guard said arrogantly.
"I...who am I? Do you know who it is? I am a guest invited by your city lord. You are not allowed to be rude to me." The man in blue pretended to be drunk.
"Go, go... Go to the square in front of Beiyuan, what are you doing here? This is a forbidden area. No one can enter except the city lord." The guard said.
"Tch...there is...what's so great about it." The man in blue cursed and walked over pretending to be drunk. After walking away, he regained his calm and calm expression, and then began to think secretly.
Li Ling and Hei Lin saw clearly from a distance that the man in blue must have come to assassinate Lord Ye City, but this guy was more shrewd.
"Since this guy is also here to assassinate Lord Ye City, can we bring him over as an ally?" Heilin suggested.
"Not yet, because we are not sure yet whether this guy is really here to assassinate Lord Ye." Li Ling frowned.
"Yeah." Heilin nodded.
Then, the two of them saw that the man came to a sparsely populated place and jumped into the middle courtyard. This guy actually broke in in broad daylight.
Li Ling and Hei Lin looked at each other and were very surprised by this guy's boldness.
"He dared to break in during the day and risk his life." Li Ling frowned, really confused about where this guy came from.
However, a voice immediately came: "The birthday banquet has begun. Guests who have not gone to Beiyuan yet, please hurry up and go to Beiyuan. Lord City Lord, the speech is about to begin. Please go to Beiyuan Square immediately."
It was a servant of the City Lord's Mansion who played gongs and drums in order to get some foreigners who were watching the City Lord's Mansion to rush to the birthday banquet as quickly as possible.
Li Ling stopped the servant and asked, "When will the banquet start?"
"It will start after about half a stick of incense. Sir, hurry over there. When the city lord is delivering his speech, there will be a lottery. You might win a big prize then," the servant said with a smile.
"Thank you." Li Ling smiled.
After the servant walked away, Li Ling took Hei Lin's hand, came to a big tree, and said: "It seems that the man in blue has made the right calculation. At this time, the servant will come and call everyone to Beiyuan Square."
This guy planned to attend the banquet."
"Then the city lord is in the square of Beiyuan at this time. Since he is here to assassinate the city lord, why should he go to the middle courtyard? Could it be that this guy didn't come to the city lord's mansion to assassinate the city lord Ye?" Hei Lin asked doubtfully.
"It's very possible that he's not here to assassinate Lord Ye City. He may be here to steal treasures. Lord Ye has collected a lot of treasures himself, which will inevitably attract the jealousy of some people. During the birthday banquet, when everyone is busy, here are a few
It’s not a strange thing for a thief to steal the treasures in the house,” Li Ling said.
"Then if they are really here to steal the treasure, that would be really funny. Let's go to Beiyuan Square and have a look. Maybe there is a group of people who assassinated Lord Ye, hiding among the crowd?" Hei said.
Lin smiled.
"Well, we don't rule out this possibility. Let's go." Li Ling said with a smile.
Arriving at Beiyuan Square, Li Ling and Hei Lin specially found a table in the front row, where they could see clearly. At this moment, there was a huge arena on the square. On the arena, there were
Some chairs, presumably the one in the middle, were reserved for Lord Ye.
Time passed very quickly, half a stick of incense passed quickly, and City Lord Ye came out from the backstage in a gorgeous suit. His eyes were like eagle eyes, his chin was sharp, his ears were fat, his nose was high, and his forehead was sunken.
, a pair of eyebrows go into the temples, looking very sinister.
This was the first time Li Ling saw Lord Ye. Judging from his appearance, he should be a ruthless and extremely capable person.
"Everyone, today is Ye's birthday. I am very grateful to everyone for coming to Ye's house to celebrate Ye's birthday. In order to thank everyone for coming, I specially created a program. Now as long as everyone present, there is a
Red brand, as long as everyone turns over the red brand and writes the word "leaf" under the brand, they can come up to the stage to receive the award." City Lord Ye said grandly.
On the other hand, Ye Lantian, the son of City Lord Ye, looked careless and indifferent to everyone, and was very arrogant.
"Ye City Lord, it's your fiftieth birthday today. It's right for us to come here to congratulate you. However, Ye City Lord, since we're here to congratulate you, shouldn't you show us the treasures that Ye City Lord has collected over the past few years? We're here this time.
If you don’t ask for anything else, just ask Lord Ye to open our eyes and let us see those treasures of Lord Ye.” A tall and thin man in rich clothes said impressively.
"Yes, City Lord Ye, take out your treasure and let us admire it." Support came from below.
Ye Fei frowned, obviously very unhappy with this guy who suddenly showed up to see the treasure, but today was his birthday, and he would not spoil the atmosphere with an attack, so he smiled and said: "Today is Ye's birthday, not his birthday."
It’s a treasure conference, so Ye doesn’t have the time to show off my treasure to everyone.”
"City Lord Ye, what you said is wrong. Since it is my birthday, I should have fun with everyone. Since it is my birthday, Lord Ye, don't be too stingy. Bring out the treasure to open everyone's eyes, and everyone will be happy.
Maybe the banquet will be more lively." The tall and thin man in rich clothes said.
There was a trace of murderous intent in Ye Fei's eyes at this moment, but today was his birthday, and he once again endured the tall and thin man in gorgeous clothes.
Li Ling also looked at the tall, thin man in gorgeous clothes and felt that this guy was obviously here to tear down Lord Ye City. He probably had backstage support. Otherwise, no matter how brave he was, he wouldn't dare to come to tear down Lord Ye City.
.
"Ahem, well, since everyone is so interested in seeing the treasure, let's wait until the banquet is over and we'll see it again. It's lottery time now. Let's put everything down first. The prizes we prepared today are also very rich. First-class
Those who win the prize can get a good weapon." Ye Fei deliberately changed the subject.
"Ye City Lord, this is what you said. After the banquet, when you look at your treasure, don't break your promise. Otherwise, your reputation as Ye City Lord will be wiped out." The tall and thin man said with a smile.
Ye Fei almost exposed his murderous intent. If it wasn't his birthday at this moment, he would have dared to kill the tall and thin man on the spot.
"Haha... This brother is right. What I said will definitely count." Ye Fei bites every word very tightly, which shows how strong his hatred is. (To be continued...)
