Everyone who has received Lanqu's order has arrived.
In addition to those who received the Lanqu Order, the heads of the second-tier families in Lanqu County also appeared in the meeting hall of the County Prince's Mansion. Although they did not receive the Lanqu Order from the County King, they still
They all received news from the county prince's palace, asking them to participate in today's meeting.
In the meeting hall, people like the heads of the Lu family and other families were sitting at the table in the center. The heads of the second-rate families and forces were sitting further away among the arranged chairs.
superior.
To put it bluntly, the leaders of these second-rate forces in the county generally have no say in such discussions. They are here to listen. Of course, under special circumstances, they can also express their opinions, but they will certainly not be too
receive attention.
"Hello, Chief Lu!"
"No matter how you are, Patriarch Yuan, I haven't seen you, Patriarch Yuan, for several months!"
"Haha... It's just that we old guys meet less and less."
"Clan Chief Cai, I heard that your Cai family has recently purchased the mining rights of a new mine from the Lord County Prince? This new mine seems to have a large reserve of spiritual stones! The Cai family has become rich again!"
"No, no, it's just a small mineral vein." The head of the Cai family waved his hand modestly, but there was no concealment of the pride on his face.
…
In the meeting hall, people were talking a lot and it was quite lively.
"Prince Wenguang, I heard that Jing Yan from your Daoyi College died? Is this true or false?" Tong Bo, the president of Red Lotus College, looked at Wen Guang curiously.
Wenguang's face looked a little ugly.
Jing Yan is indeed a special student with unlimited potential.
Ever since Jing Yan won the Golden Order through the Heavenly Formation, he has been paying attention to the three major academies. Even the deans of the three major academies all know the name Jing Yan. Later, Jing Yan became more and more famous, and he established a very close relationship with the prince's palace.
With such close connections, it can be said that all the important figures in Lanqu County know about Jing Yan, a young warrior.
"Yes! Wenguang Academy, it is said that Jing Yan was assassinated by the Dark Night Ace Killer. Alas, this is really a big loss for Daoyi Academy!" Guan Yue, the principal of Shenfeng Academy, said with suspicion.
Said with a smile.
Although Guan Yue doesn't know Jing Yan, his impression of Jing Yan is extremely bad!
Why?
This also involves Fang Ruoyu. Back then, Fang Ruoyu went to Shenfeng Academy for Jing Yan and killed Shang Qu, the head of the outer academy, in public. No one in Shenfeng Academy could stop him.
This incident brought shame on everyone at Kamikaze Academy, from the headmaster to the students.
Guan Yue, as the headmaster of Shenfeng Academy, was naturally even more angry. However, he saw Fang Ruoyu's strength and knew that it would be impossible to seek revenge from Fang Ruoyu, so naturally, he put the blame on Jing Yan.
On the head. When he heard that Jing Yan was assassinated by the Night Killer, he felt very happy.
Speaking of which, among the people here, not one but two were secretly happy about the news of Jing Yan's assassination. Even those who had no personal grudge against Jing Yan, they heard that Jing Yan, a martial arts genius, was killed.
They can't help but feel happy. Their family does not have such a genius, and naturally they don't want a genius like Jing Yan to appear outside the family.
People's hearts are unpredictable! Most people can't see others being better than themselves. That's the reason.
Wenguang's face became increasingly ugly.
Everyone else also turned their heads and focused their attention here.
"Speaking of which, what a pity for Jing Yan!"
"Who says otherwise? If Jing Yan doesn't die, there will be one more Taoist-level warrior in Lanqu County in the future."
"Alas, there are many geniuses, but unfortunately there are not many geniuses who can reach the end."
"It's also Jing Yan's own fault. If he hadn't left Daoyi Academy and Lanqu County itself, the Dark Night Ace wouldn't have been able to kill him."
Everyone was talking about it. On the surface, they felt sorry for Jing Yan, but what they were thinking in their hearts was unknown to others. Anyway, the look in most of their eyes was not regret.
"Jing Yan may not be dead!" Wen Guang said in a low voice as he looked a little confused.
It's just that this tone is obviously not strong enough.
"Haha, we all hope Jing Yan is not dead."
"However, it is impossible to survive being targeted by Mr. Yin, the ace of the night. Let alone Jing Yan, even us old guys will have a headache if we are targeted by Mr. Yin!" Guan, the headmaster of Shenfeng Academy
Yue shook his head and said.
"Yes! What Chief Guan Yue said makes sense." Others nodded in agreement.
"Everyone, this meeting is about to begin!"
At this time, Mu Liantian opened his mouth and shouted in a low voice.
After Mu Liantian opened his mouth, everyone naturally shut up. The prince Zhou Shangyun was about to appear.
However, some people suddenly discovered that it seemed that an important person was missing among them.
Wen Lan, the head of the Wen family, didn’t come! What’s going on?
"Where's Chief Wenlan?"
"Huh?"
"He really hasn't come yet. Why didn't Patriarch Wen Lan come? He dared not come according to the Lan Qu Ling of Lord County Prince?" Everyone showed doubtful eyes and looked around, but no trace of Wen Lan was found.
"Something's wrong! If Chief Wenlan accepts Lan Qu's order, he will never fail to show up. Could it be..." someone muttered.
The expressions of the others also changed slightly.
yes!
After receiving the Lanqu Order, unless you are brain-dead and don't want to live, you will never dare not to come. Then there seems to be only one reason why Wen Lan did not come, and that is that the prince did not pass the Lanqu Order to Wen Lan. However, other
Everyone has received the Lanqu Order, so why doesn’t Wen Lan have the Lanqu Order? The Wen family is one of the four major aristocratic families in Lanqu County. The other three aristocratic families have all received the Lanqu Order, so why hasn’t the Wen family received it?
The reason seems to have surfaced.
Could it be that the matter that the Lord Prince summoned everyone here to discuss is related to the Wen family? This is really very possible.
In fact, although everyone didn't say much about Jing Yan's assassination, they all knew it in their minds. Most people felt that the employer who hired the Dark Night Ace should be the Wen family. Of course, without evidence, everyone couldn't
I am sure this was done by the Wen family.
It's just that everyone has some understanding of the conflict between Jing Yan and the Wen family. The one who wants Jing Yan dead the most is the Wen family.
If the prince really wants to target the Wen family, then the reason may be related to Jing Yan's death.
Thinking of this, everyone was horrified again. If the prince really wanted to target the Wen family, then the weight of Jing Yan in the prince's heart would be a bit scary. Could it be that the prince really wanted to do something for the dead Jing Yan?
Do you want to take action against the Wen family?
For a moment, the meeting hall seemed very quiet.
"Mr. Mu, why didn't the head of the Wen family, Wen Lan, come over?" After silence, the head of the Lu family looked at Mu Liantian and asked.
