Du Anchen's expression was still serious, as if the distance he had narrowed with Song Yu before had suddenly become extremely far away: "The city lord is willing to see you now, will you go?"
"Go!" Song Yu replied immediately. Although this cheap dad is just an NPC, he is also an important NPC. For the integrity of the plot that Song Yu has always cared about, seeing him is definitely much better than not seeing him at all.
"It can only be you." Du Anchen said again.
Song Yu was a little hesitant at this time. But Xie Nanshi nodded, not only to indicate that he didn't mind, but also to express that Du Anchen could be trusted. After that, Song Yu followed Du Anchen and left the wing.
It's just that leaving Chen Guogong's mansion was a bit unconventional. Du Anchen carried Song Yu's clothes and jumped out of the courtyard wall from the blind spot guarded by Chen Guogong's mansion after a few ups and downs, and then took him to the palace.
His life was in someone else's hands, and Song Yu didn't dare to complain about Du Anchen's unconventional style.
Although it occupies the word "palace", the city lord's residence is actually not very large. From the outside, it does not even look as grand as Chen Guogong's mansion. A rough estimate shows that it occupies a large area, but it is only as large as the Yongxi Prefecture's Peace Department.
It is said to be comparable. The interior is very simple from the house to the scenery, but it has some elegance that ordinary people don't have.
The palace was heavily guarded, but no one came to stop and ask questions along the way. Song Yu was not stupid either. After passing through the two palace gates, he realized that these people were not so much doing it for their own sake, but rather because of them.
I saw Du Anchen. It was a bit funny. He was obviously the young city lord here, but at this moment he seemed a bit pretentious.
I knew Du Anchen was not simple, but I didn't know she was so different.
"Du Anchen, don't you think you should explain something to me?" Song Yu couldn't help but ask.
"Sun Fengyuan, the young lord of Bai Zhao City. He studied under the old man Nanshan, but his qualifications are average and he has no hard training. He travels around the world relying on his birth and various rare magic weapons." Du Anchen paused and said, "There is a lot of content, one by one.
I’m too tired to talk to you. I’ll write to you tonight.”
"No, it's not this." Song Yu hissed, feeling that Du Anchen did it on purpose, "What is your identity?"
In the last episode, Du Anchen met Song Yu on the way to Yongxi Prefecture. Together they cracked an underground palace next to Yuanao Mountain, where Song Yu obtained the spiritual method without sect restrictions and prepared himself for joining the sect.
Basics. By the end of the plot in Yongxi Province, after Song Yu worshiped the sect, he had little contact with Du Anchen. However, he seemed to have seen him several times in subsequent plots.
Now it seems that Du Anchen has a close relationship with Tianyong City, and maybe he has been following him.
"You can ask the city lord about this." Du Anchen's face has been smelly since we met today, and he looked like he was not willing to talk. She led Song Yu to a door, knocked on the door knocker respectfully, and
Short and long.
Soon, the door opened from the inside. However, no servant was seen opening the door. When he crossed the threshold, Song Yu felt a familiar blockage again. There was obviously a formation in this room.
After passing through the blockage, Song Yu could clearly feel a strange bitter smell in the room. There seemed to be no wind here, but it didn't make people feel that the room was stuffy. It was just that it was still broad daylight outside, but the room was very dark.
.
Du Anchen led Song Yu to the inner room. Through the curtain, Song Yu saw a man sitting on the bed inside. It felt weird because this man was also very thin and sickly, as if he was a man.
The flesh had disintegrated and only a few bones were left, which could not even hold up the thin clothes on his body. But the man was very good-looking, with a face that was carved with a knife and an axe. If you look closely, there are some similarities between his eyebrows and Song Yu's.
But... he doesn't look very old, maybe in his thirties, so he doesn't seem to be old enough to be his father.
"You brat, how dare you come back?!" The man was full of breath when he spoke, but after he finished speaking, he coughed violently, shaking the whole bed.
After these words came out, Song Yu finally confirmed the identity of the other party, and hurriedly pounced on him, "vividly" pretending to be a filial son: "Dad! My miserable dad! What's wrong with you!"
Song Chengwei, the Lord of Yongcheng City, was still coughing today, but now he was choking on his breath, holding his heart and coughing and couldn't stop coughing at all.
Du Anchen couldn't stand watching any longer. He stretched out his hand to block Song Yu who was like a stray dog, turned his head and said with concern: "Your Majesty."
"You brat, are you going to piss me off to death!" Song Chengwei's face turned green after he coughed, "You're going to be messing around when you come back! I thought you had accomplished some things after being away for a few months, and your temper should have calmed down a bit. Cough, cough
…”
Song Chengwei was paying attention to every move he made outside... Song Yu knew without even thinking that Du Anchen was reporting the news. But although Song Chengwei was scolding him every word, his words were not so majestic. So Song Yu
Yu decisively continued his conversation style: "Father, my son ran back after receiving the news that you were seriously ill."
Song Chengwei's brows furrowed even more. He seemed to want to calm down the depression in his heart. After a moment, he put his hand down from his chest and leaned back on the bed with Du Anchen's help: "You, you are so steady.
Not enough. He said he was coming back to see me, but as soon as he entered the city, he had a conflict with the Young City Master of Bai Zhao City. Breaking off the engagement? Huh, what a breakup. Is this something you can do just by saying you can?"
Damn it, Song Yu didn't know that he could experience an arranged marriage in a modern ancient-style game. His scalp was about to explode: "Dad, that Su Zhixin did whatever she wanted just because she was engaged to me. I don't like her but she still has to do it."
Marry her? What kind of logic is this! If that’s why you called me here, then I’d better leave now!”
Unexpectedly, when Song Chengwei heard this, his chest suddenly rose and fell again, and he was panting like a bellows: "Okay! Then let's go! An Chen, get this traitor out of here!"
"Yes." Du Anchen carried out Song Chengwei's order very faithfully, and the giant sword was already revealed.
Song Yu was depressed to death. Apart from knowing that his relationship with his cheap dad might not be as bad as the article said, there was no development at all on this matter.
Calling someone here specifically for an arranged marriage... Is this what the lord of a city should do? I'm confused. Song Yu is ready to continue writing a short essay to denounce the plan before going to bed tonight.
But with the giant sword in front, Song Yu couldn't stand here. He had already figured it out, even if he wanted to die, he would die next to the crack outside Tianyong's capital. Die here? It's too dangerous and too unworthy. So
Song Yu hurriedly said to Song Chengwei one last time full of affection and affection, "Dad, I care about your health." "Dad, if you are angry, I will leave first and come back to see you another day." Then he hurriedly filmed in Du Anchen's sword style
Before killing himself, he rushed out of the room.
Du Anchen turned around and glanced at Song Chengwei. He saw that Song Chengwei seemed more tired and his face turned gray. As soon as Song Yu left, his shrewdness besides his majesty seemed to disappear and he looked much duller. He closed the door
Eye: "Now that I have seen him, there is nothing else to do. Protect him from Tianyong, and I will protect him all the way from now on."
Du Anchen looked hesitant: "City Lord, at this time, my subordinates..."
Song Chengwei glanced at Du Anchen lightly, but Du Anchen didn't say anything. She helped Song Chengwei lie down, and then left the palace, with a bit of depression in her expression.
Song Yu had been waiting outside for a long time. When he saw Du Anchen coming out, he couldn't help but go up to him and ask, "Are you from my father?"
Du Anchen looked like you were asking nonsense: "I am the city lord's personal guard."
As expected, Song Yu guessed it. But the word "personal"... Song Yu touched his chin and asked tentatively: "Then you... like my father? Maybe I should call you - stepmother?"
Although he doesn’t know Song Chengwei very well, he can let Du Anchen bring his son to see him, which shows that Song Chengwei is extremely trusting and close to Du Anchen. And Du Anchen, although young, has the style of a royal sister, let alone when he is with his father.
It seems to match quite well.
Du Anchen looked at Song Yu coldly for a long time before saying word by word: "I really don't know how the city lord could have such a messed-up son like you."
"So, you have been secretly following me since Qinghe Town... No, I should say, since I left Tianyong?" Song Yu asked quietly.
Du Anchen neither admitted nor denied it. However, considering that she was no longer a personal bodyguard, it should have been under the instruction of Song Chengwei.
"The relationship between my father and I is not that bad." Song Yu became more and more sure, "Then why did he drive me away and burn down my house?"
Du Anchen still didn't answer: "Since you came back to see the city lord, now that you have seen him, it's time to leave. There is no place for you to come back here."
Song Yu couldn't help but protest: "You're driving me away when I just come back? Isn't this still my lovely hometown?"
"Then you leave tomorrow. I'll take you out of the palace first." Du Anchen said, and then signaled to Song Yu that if he didn't do what she said, she would draw her sword.
Du Du Tiao, who once pointed out where to hit, is now disobedient. Song Yu is very sad: "Then you pay back the money."
Du Anchen's footsteps paused, and his tone of voice unconsciously became a little higher, as if he was arguing with Song Yu before: "When did I owe you money?"
"My father is your employer, and he has asked you to protect me. There is no need for me to hire you. Don't you think you should pay back the money?" Although Song Yu directly burned several digits in learning skills, he has not yet
He was so short of money. He just wanted to see Du Anchen perform his martial arts without being so far away from him.
After Du Anchen regained some of his previous feelings, Song Yu felt much more at ease.
So Song Yu continued to add fuel to the fire happily: "I know that you are most loyal to the city lord. You are greedy for money and drink. They must be all disguises to paralyze me. You must also feel the same way about yourself in your heart.
It's very painful. But it doesn't matter. Give me back the money and you will be free. What you will face is the most authentic version of yourself..."
