Monarch of Evernight: Seventy-two chance encounters
bsp;Wei Potian walked down the steps of the division headquarters building and stood not far away, stroking the stubble on his chin and thinking thoughtfully, "It's really her. It seems that the rumors are true. She regained her surname."
Nangong Ling had a frosty look on his face at this moment. He no longer cared about being in front of Wei Potian, snorted heavily and said coldly: "Does she deserve the surname Nangong?"
Wei Potian just smiled and said nothing.
As soon as the name Nangong Xiaoniao came out, most of the onlookers looked very strange. The officers of the Third Army were all silent, but the ladies didn't care so much. They gathered together and whispered to each other, and glanced at Nangong Ling from time to time.
"Nangong Xiaoniao, I seem to have heard of this name somewhere."
"Is it the Nangong Xiaoniao that the Red Scorpion Legion Commanders are very optimistic about? It is said that he has the potential to become a mechanical master and an array master at the same time?!"
“Wouldn’t that be awesome?”
"Not only is she awesome, she is extremely awesome! It is said that she has already started designing a new floating battleship."
"Do you know? It is said that she has a grudge against the Nangong family, and it seems that they almost got into a fight..."
"What's going on! Tell me!"
Feeling the strange looks from all the noble ladies, and the volume of the whispers being heard clearly, Nangong Ling was so angry that her face turned green and red, but the noble ladies who dared to talk about her face to face had no financial background. Worse than her, it is obviously impossible to have an attack on the spot.
As for those noble ladies, because Nangong Ling always found ways to get close to Wei Potian, he even left them alone several times to be alone with Wei Potian. It was rare to find such a good opportunity to anger her, and they had no intention of restraining themselves. Instead, they became more and more angry. Say it louder and louder.
Nangong Ling couldn't bear it anymore and said coldly: "I feel a little uncomfortable, so I'm going back first."
Wei Potian had no intention of comforting her at all, and actually said "that's fine", which made Nangong Ling stomp his feet and left the 7th Division Headquarters.
At this time, a lieutenant colonel from the dark fire division headquarters rushed over and took over the work of arranging housing for Nangong Xiaoniao and the Red Scorpion soldiers she brought.
Watching the Red Scorpions leave, Zhang Ziji frowned and said to himself: "This is going to be troublesome."
The adjutant next to him was a little confused and asked: "General, even if there is trouble, it is Red Scorpion's trouble, right? Aren't we going to **** Crown Prince Wei and the ladies back to Qinlu in two days?"
Zhang Zizi said sullenly: "When has Red Scorpion been on duty without killing anyone, how can there be extra manpower to take care of that little trouble? I can care about An Shaonian's life or death, but if something happens to her, Red Scorpion will It’s crazy how a few old guys can tear down my house!”
Seeing that Zhang Zizi was in a bad mood, the adjutant did not dare to say anything more. However, Zhang Ziyi clearly disliked him and suddenly said: "Ask Hong Scorpion how long Colonel Nangong will stay in Black River City. Where are you going next? I will assign you a battalion and a high-speed destroyer, and you will be responsible for protecting her. If she loses a hair, I will ask you!"
The adjutant suddenly turned bitter. Does this mean that he cannot return with the brigade? No one wants to stay in a place like Yongye where the sun is basically invisible. But Zhang Zizi was so angry that he didn't dare to object. He had to ask with a grimace: "General, how long will it take?"
"Until she leaves Yongye!" Zhang Ziyi said coldly, blocking all the adjutant's hopes.
For the next whole day, Blackstream City was calm and busy. The ladies and their entourage who had been noisy in this small border town for a long time were about to leave, which made the whole city breathe a big sigh of relief from top to bottom. Feel.
Wei Potian was still in a bad mood. Dark Fire's military report has been sent to him, and the Qianye Western Expedition is going very smoothly. He recently had a head-on fight with the Earl of the Spider Demon, and Stuka was seriously injured and fled. But he immediately led his troops to attack the territory of the Werewolf Viscount, and it seemed that there was no hope of returning within two days.
The elusive Song Zining disappeared for a few days before reappearing. It is said that he has basically settled the expeditionary force headquarters, and the follow-up is to go through various procedures to completely legalize the secret fire.
While Wei Potian was happy for Qianye, at the same time he was looking at Song Qi's cheerful face with all kinds of displeasure, wondering if he should think of another way to get him away too. However, thinking that everything here in Qianye was just getting started, and that both Zhao Clan's life experience and Red Scorpion's experience were hidden worries, he suppressed this tempting idea.
Song Zining didn't care whether Prince Wei was depressed or not. He was in a good mood after settling the secret fire. He didn't leave the house every day, but just hid in his room and wrote and painted. His state of mind improved by leaps and bounds.
This morning, as if with divine help, he started writing as fast as he could, and completed a mountainous journey in one go. I saw a flash of light from the Force, and the scenery on the paper seemed to come alive. The stone path that snaked towards the clouds suddenly floated with frost-stained red maple leaves.
"The twilight is deep", Song Zining's "Three Thousand Floating Leaves Technique" has officially entered the sixth intermediate level.
At this moment, Wei Potian was standing behind him watching the painting. When he saw the maple leaf formed by the glimmer of light, Prince Wei suddenly thought of the piece of heart armor he had made for Qianye, and his face turned dark. He suddenly stretched out his hand, and a ray of earth-yellow light faintly revealed the sharp edges and corners of the dangerous peak, pressing towards the world in the painting.
Although Song Zining didn't know what was going on, he felt even happier when he saw that Wei Potian looked bad. Regardless of his painting, he let the two forces clash and wiped the rice paper into a pile of dust. Just when he was about to say a few words to insult Wei Potian, there was a sudden noise outside.
Both of them were stunned and turned to look out of the long window. They are now in Qianye's office at the Dark Fire Station. Outside the south window is the main campus connected to the main entrance. A group of people are gathering there.
Today is the day that Nangong Xiaoniao is scheduled to leave for Dark Blood City, but he heard a Blood Scorpion Battalion soldier who arrived earlier mention that the Lord of Black Current City and the leader of the Dark Fire Mercenary Group had recently returned with a Force Array. , no one has been able to decipher it so far, and they have also come to inquire about the situation with the professionals from Red Scorpion and the Third Army.
The girl was most interested in these things. She looked at the time and found that it would take almost an hour for the aerostat to set sail, so she could just stop by the Dark Fire for a walk. As soon as she walked into the dark fire gate, she saw a group of people approaching a noble lady, it was Nangong Ling.
Nangong Ling did not expect to bump into Nangong Xiaoniao at this time and place. He was stunned for a moment, then his face sank, and he said coldly: "Make way."
Nangong Xiaoniao's little heart-shaped face bulged, obviously very angry. She clenched her fists and said angrily: "Who are you asking to give way?"
"Of course it's you, is there anyone else in front of me?"
The main road at the gate of Dark Fire is for the entry and exit of chariots. Not to mention two girls walking side by side, even two main tanks can walk side by side. But the two girls, both named Nangong, stood facing each other, neither of them willing to move a step to the side.
"Why should I give way to you?" Nangong Xiaoniao asked angrily.
Nangong Ling raised his eyebrows, walked slowly to Nangong Xiaoniao, and said, "Based on my status, you are just from a humble family, not even a nobleman!"
Nangong Xiaoniao shouted: "If you hadn't framed me in the first place, how could Grandpa..."
Nangong Ling suddenly interrupted her: "Who knows what is going on with such a distant thing. Besides, does it have anything to do with me? No! So, I'm just telling you now, give way!"
Nangong Xiaoniao’s little face turned red. She was obviously no match for Nangong Ling when it came to bickering. She was so angry that she burst into tears after just a few words.
The two people were standing on the main road of Dark Fire and making such a fuss, which immediately attracted the attention of people coming and going. The warriors of Dark Fire had long been afraid of these noble ladies, and they just watched from a distance when no one approached.
However, the ladies from aristocratic families who followed Wei Potian and Song Zining every day and were bound to come and have a look at each other appeared from every corner and started pointing and talking quietly. Of course they won't calm the situation, they just think of ways to fan the flames.
Nangong Xiaoniao suddenly wiped away the tears that were about to roll down, stared at Nangong Ling, and said word by word: "I, no, let!"
Nangong Ling suddenly smiled, "Thank you for having the nerve to use the surname Nangong. You don't even know the etiquette, so I will teach you today!"
Nangong Ling suddenly waved his hand and slapped Nangong Xiaoniao on the face. Maybe there was something on his mind, or maybe he didn't expect Nangong Ling to make a sudden move. Nangong Xiaoniao didn't react for a moment, only heard a snap, and received a solid slap in the face.
At this moment, the ladies from the aristocratic families who were watching were all stunned. Even Nangong Ling himself was very surprised. She was originally just trying to make Nangong Xiaoniao retreat, but she didn't expect that the slap actually hit her hard.
Half of Nangong Xiaoniao’s face suddenly swelled, and a clear handprint gradually appeared on it. She covered her cheek, looked at Nangong Ling, her eyes suddenly became extremely calm, and said slowly: "You hit me?"
The Red Scorpion warriors behind her were not so calm. After being shocked, they stepped forward with a few arrows and drew out their sabers and guns.
Nangong Ling's heart trembled slightly. The Red Scorpion warriors were all veterans who had killed people on the battlefield. Although their level was not particularly high, their aura seemed bloody. But now that the matter has come to this, how could she shrink back in front of everyone? She gritted her teeth and said, "So what if I hit you? Who let you stand in the way!"
Nangong Ling's maids and guards also swarmed up and stood in front of her. One maid shouted: "Get out of the way quickly. The laws of the empire are clearly written. When a poor family meets a noble family, give way. Why, you still want to Can’t we resist the law?”
Nangong Xiaoniao turned a blind eye to the maid, just stared at Nangong Ling, and said again: "You hit me?"
Nangong Ling's expression was a little stiff, but she was absolutely unwilling to give in. It's a small thing to take a step back, but it will lose the face of the Nangong family.
The red scorpion warriors who were blocked by Nangong Xiaoniao on the opposite side had angry expressions on their faces, murderous intent rising, and they might take action at any time. There are many dead soldiers in the army, but they don't care who Nangong Ling is. When they are angry, the blade of the knife will still splatter with blood. At most, they will just pay for it with their lives afterwards.
One of Nangong Ling's followers saw that the situation was not good, quietly retreated, and quickly walked away. Although the family guards think highly of themselves, they still dare not be careless when facing a special elite regiment like the Red Scorpions. This man is very smart, and he has obviously gone to the family master.
The onlookers also saw that the situation was not good, and quickly sent people to find Wei Potian, Song Zining and Zhang Zining. If the Red Scorpion and the Nangong Family took action in public, it would definitely not be a trivial matter. Things are really going to get out of hand, and those of them who are watching the excitement can't escape their involvement.
The surrounding eyes were on Nangong Ling, making her feel hot. But remembering the attitude of the elders in the family, she gritted her teeth, raised her face high, and said coldly: "You won't give way? If you don't give way, I'll still slap you!"
The maid stretched out her hand to push Nangong Xiaoniao and shouted: "You are a lowly bitch, why don't you get out of the way!"
However, at this moment, a loud voice suddenly sounded outside the base gate: "Ouch! Why are there so many people, are they all welcoming me?"
