Princess Sets Poison Again Chapter 725: The seat of the city lord

Chapter 725 The position of the city lord

"Miaolu!" Zuo Yuqing was so happy that he hugged Cen Miaolu and turned around excitedly.

The door of the room was pushed open with a "bang", and everyone rushed in.

"Ahem..." The old city lord coughed heavily when he saw the movements of the two of them.

Zuo Yuqing came back to his senses, immediately put down Cen Miaolu, bowed respectfully to the old city lord, "Grandfather."

The old city lord didn't mean to blame at all, but instead said lovingly, "Qing'er is good, grandpa didn't misunderstand the person, and I will be able to see clearly when the city lord's mansion is handed over to you."

The old city lord's words instantly changed the expressions of the Cen family who followed in.

Zuo Yuqing seems to be used to it, and just about to say a few words of modesty, the second master of the city lord's mansion asked, "Father, what did you mean just now?"

Second Master's tone was very bad, and he seemed to be questioning.

The old city lord's face darkened in an instant, and Zuo Yuqing's originally happy mood suddenly faded a lot.

The third master also frowned, and said dissatisfiedly, "That's right, father, how can our Cen family's property be handed over to an outsider."

The uncle looked at the face of the old city lord, then at the warning eyes of his own daughter, opened his mouth, and didn't dare to say anything.

Zuo Yuqing's complexion became even uglier, and the little good mood that was rare to be promoted was completely wiped out by these people.

The old city lord also stared angrily, "Is Yuqing an outsider? He is Miaolu's future husband and my grandson."

At this moment, the old city lord has fully interpreted the image of the fatuous and stubborn old man.

Seeing the old city lord speak, Cen Miaolu waved a handkerchief and said, "Yes, third uncle, why is Yuqing an outsider? Yuqing and I are going to get married soon."

At this time, Cen Miaolu must be helping Zuo Yuqing. According to her grandfather's arrangement, she and Zuo Yuqing are definitely going to get married. Zuo Yuqing has become the city lord, and she is at least the wife of the city lord, let alone her grandfather's temper Well, if she was the only one, the position of city lord would definitely not be passed on to her. So she had to curry favor with Zuo Yuqing.

The third master did not dare to hate the old city lord, but he was not afraid of the junior Cen Miaolu, so he said disdainfully, "Isn't that unmarried? If you are not married, you are an outsider."

Third Master glared at Zuo Yuqing as he spoke, he didn't know where such a kid came out of nowhere, after a few days of hard work he coaxed the old man around, even handing over the position of city lord, the old man is really old old confused.

Zuo Yuqing didn't seem to see the resentment in the eyes of the third master, and only smiled at him gently, "Don't worry, third uncle, Yuqing has already written a letter home to grandfather and father, and they should come soon Shengtianxia hired."

Not waiting for the third master to speak, the second master snorted coldly with disdain, "Hmph, so what if we become relatives, the position of city lord will not be your turn no matter what."

They have a lot of brothers, plus those concubines of the old man, there are seven brothers, plus those grandchildren and great-grandchildren, their Cen family has at least a few hundred people, so Many of my own family members can't make it, so why give it to such an outsider who is nothing.

Zuo Yuqing's face turned livid instantly, he clenched his fists and wished he could step forward and punch the person who spoke to death.

Cen Miaolu also stepped forward angrily, "What did the second uncle say? It was my grandfather who wanted to pass on the position of city lord to us Yuqing, and we didn't ask for it. Besides, grandfather attaches great importance to Yuqing, let alone The position of the city lord is mere, and even the family's god-level exercises have been passed on to us Yuqing, and our Yuqing has just used this exercise to be promoted to Bailing."

Cen Miaolu is very proud of what she said. Her purpose of saying this is nothing more than to show off her status in the heart of the old castellan to the Cen family. After all, if Zuo Yuqing has nothing to do with her, the old castellan would not The position of city lord was passed on to him.

Furthermore, she is also showing off her man, especially Miss Cen, who is about the same age as her. some.

Sure enough, after Cen Miaolu finished speaking, everyone was instantly jealous, especially those young women who had not left the cabinet, all stared at Cen Miaolu with jealousy, and a few others peeked shyly and timidly. Zuo Yuqing.

Hearing that the old city lord had passed on all the family's god-level exercises to Zuo Yuqing, the second master instantly said with grief, "Father, why are you so confused..."

"Presumptuous!" Before the second master could finish his sentence, the old city lord suddenly raised his hand and slapped him across the face.

There was a crisp sound of "pa", which made everyone turn pale in fright.

Second Master was also taken aback, his face was burning with pain, but he didn't dare to touch it.

The old city lord stared wide-eyed, glanced at the crowd angrily, and shouted angrily, "I'm not dead yet, you all want to rebel."

Everyone lowered their heads in an instant, not daring to say anything, especially the second and third masters, who dared not even breathe.

In the Cen family, the old man is the one with absolute power. Usually, he always says the same thing, but this time it is related to everyone's interests, so everyone dares to say a few words. If it is normal, no one would dare to defy the old man. of the order.

Cen Miaolu on the side is also terrified to death. In the Cen family, she is most afraid of the old man. It may be because the eldest brother died in vain, so the old man seems to be very rare of her recently. He treats her heartily, which also makes her I am a lot more courageous.

Cen Miaolu swallowed her saliva, stepped forward and tried to appease the old city lord, "Grandfather, calm down."

The old city lord seemed to be really angry, and roared at everyone again, "I tell you, I must hand over the position of city lord to Yuqing."

Zuo Yuqing and Cen Miaolu were overjoyed instantly.

Second Master, however, had a swollen face and raised his head aggrievedly, "Father..."

They are all his own sons. If you don't think about having a son, how can you hand over the position of city lord to someone else? This is too confusing.

As soon as he saw the useless look of the second master, the old city owner was so angry that he wanted to crush him to death.

"You still have the face to call me father, if any of you are useful, do I still need to worry about these things?" The old city lord was so angry that he dropped the crutch in his hand to the ground with a "slap".

Everyone took two steps back in fright.

The second master didn't dare to raise his head anymore, he only dared to lower his head and mutter in his heart. Obviously you like power yourself, you are in your seventies and eighties, and you still cling to power and refuse to let go.

Cen Miaolu, who was at the side, saw that the old city lord seemed really angry, and immediately patted his back intimately.

The old city lord took a few deep breaths and said, "When Yuqing and Miaolu get married, I will officially take over the city lord's mansion."

The uncle, the second master, and the third master raised their eyes at the same time, and before they could speak, the old city lord shouted again, "Anyone who has an opinion, get out now."

The three swallowed their saliva, and did not dare to say anything for a moment.

The old city lord looked at the shyness of the three of them, and was furious, "What are you doing here? Why don't you get out of here."

As soon as the old city lord spoke, everyone ran out instantly.

With just a few breaths, only Zuo Yuqing, Cen Miaolu, the old castellan and Xu Zhong were left in the room.

The old city lord took Zuo Yuqing's hand and said apologetically, "Yuqing, don't take those **** words just now to heart. Grandpa likes you. I will definitely hand over this city lord's mansion to you." Well, I'm still in charge of the City Lord's Mansion, and what they say is useless."

Zuo Yuqing immediately said respectfully, "Don't worry, grandfather, Yuqing has no wild thoughts."

Actually, Zuo Yuqing did not fully believe what the old city lord said before. After all, he is indeed an outsider. Even if he married Cen Miaolu, he was only a grandson-in-law. He also didn't believe that he would really hand over the City Lord's Mansion to him, an outsider.

But today, in front of so many people, he was extremely determined to pass on the City Lord's Mansion to himself, which made him believe it. It seemed that he really liked him, so he had to Coax the old man and Cen Miaolu well.

Seeing that Zuo Yuqing is so sensible, the old city lord nodded in relief, "Okay, it's good that you don't think about it. If you practice hard, I won't bother you."

Seeing that the old city is about to leave, Zuo Yuqing turned around and looked at Cen Miaolu and said, "Miaolu, take grandfather home."

When Cen Miaolu heard the words, she immediately stepped forward to support the old city lord, "Grandfather, I will send you back."

Cen Miaolu now also feels that she should flatter the old man well, so that he will pass on the position of city lord to them.

The old city lord patted Cen Miaolu's hand and said, "No need, I'll just go back by myself."

The old city lord told Cen Miaolu, "Lu'er, you should accompany Yuqing to cultivate hard, and don't be willful."

"Yes." Cen Miaolu immediately responded obediently.

In the end, it was Xu Zhong who helped the old city lord back to Dongyuan.

Xu Zhong looked at the old city lord along the way, and wanted to ask him several times if he would really pass on the position of city lord to Zuo Yuqing, but he didn't dare to speak.

Based on Xu Zhong's understanding of the old city lord, how could such a powerful person pass on the position of city lord to an outsider? Even if Zuo Yuqing married Miss Miaolu, his surname is not Cen Yes, only as an outsider.

But judging from the attitude of the old city lord today, he is determined to pass on the position of city lord to Zuo Yuqing, which really confuses him.

The old city lord knew what Xu Zhong wanted to ask, but if he didn't ask, he just pretended not to know.

Of course he will not really pass on the position of city lord to Zuo Yuqing, but he will not leave it to his useless sons. The position of city lord can only be his, even if he dies , and he can only be brought into the coffin.

The reason why he holds Zuo Yuqing so much is naturally for his reasons, he will not tell Xu Zhong, nor will he tell anyone, including Cen Miaolu.
