Dark Fairy

Chapter 165 Farewell
City Lord's Mansion, a banquet in the main hall at night.

Only three people were seated at the sumptuous wine table.On the side, there are more than a dozen maids serving on the side.

"The envoy's return date has been set. Please drink this cup to express Feng Mingyuan's gratitude!" Feng Mingyuan stood holding the wine glass in both hands, with a smile on his face full of sincerity.

The person who could make Feng Mingyuan so polite was naturally Zeng Xianghong, the envoy from Huangmen Yunzong.Sitting next to Zeng Xianghong was his nephew Li Youjun.

"Haha, Mr. Feng, sit down and drink. Mr. Feng really doesn't have to be like this. Some things are just a simple effort. Why do you need to thank him so repeatedly? And I haven't thanked Mr. Feng for his warm hospitality these days.

In this way, there is no need to toast, you and I can drink from this cup together! "

Feng Mingyuan laughed and drank the glass in one gulp.Afterwards, the guests and hosts had a great time.Later, there was even a drinking order.In the end, even Feng Mingyuan's drinking capacity became a little unsteady at the end.

After the banquet was over, Zeng Xianghong took his nephew Li Youjun back to their small courtyard. After this night, they would set off back to the capital early tomorrow morning.This means that the hunting of ghost cultivators in Yongchuan City has come to an end for the time being.It also brought an end to the previous death of Shen Hong.

As for the wine tonight, it was Feng Mingyuan who sent Zeng Xianghong off.Secondly, I also want to say a few more words of thanks.If Zeng Xianghong hadn't said a few words of help this time, Feng Mingyuan would have been expelled by Zhou Chong from Yuzhong, the state capital.This is not a small favor for Feng Mingyuan personally.

Moreover, when Yuzhong made small moves against the sword hall later, although Zeng Xianghong initially acted as if he was not helping each other.But in the end, he let his nephew take action and turned the situation around.

Feng Mingyuan had to find an opportunity to repay these two favors later.

Lie on the soft chair, drank sober tea, and wiped his face with hot water.Only then did Feng Mingyuan's alcoholism gradually subside.

"Have the envoys prepared their cars for tomorrow?"

Zhou Zhonghao, who had been by the side all the time, nodded quickly and said, "It's all ready. However, according to the envoy's intention, all unnecessary guards of honor and guards were withdrawn, and even the carriage was replaced by a solo rider. But the city lord They did not refuse the arrangements they had made."

"Zeng Xianghong's style of doing things is more tough. He understands the outside world but doesn't like to interfere. More is to do his job well. He doesn't ask for merit or fault. It's the same as those in the Yunzong of the imperial family who devote themselves to practice. And his cultivation base is so high, I think he should have stepped into the Dao Dan realm. This cultivation base can be regarded as the top in the outer sect of the imperial Yunzong, and even the inner sect can be called the backbone .

It was luck to be able to hook up with him this time.Moreover, it is more likely that the matter of the industrial park will go directly to Tianting through Zeng Xianghong's mouth. "

Feng Mingyuan sat up slightly, with a smile on his face again, feeling very emotional about his twists and turns of luck this time.At first, he thought he could soar into the sky and achieve great achievements, but he was robbed by Zhang Yangsong.Then Shen Hong died, and Zeng Xianghong came from behind.A good thing almost turned into a big trouble.

"Don't worry, my lord. With the business of the industrial park in place, I will have a reason to visit Zeng Xianghong frequently in the future to enhance our relationship. This will be of great benefit to my lord in the future."

Feng Mingyuan naturally understood the truth.But he seemed to think of something again, his brows frowned slightly, he picked up the sober tea in hand and took another big sip, and then said, "Then what about the thing Li Youjun hinted at before? How did you plan?"

There is a saying that one door can pass through all kinds of people.

People who also come from the Huangmen Yun Sect can be people like Zeng Xianghong who can see through the world but can exercise restraint, follow their true intentions and focus on cultivation.There can also be people like Shen Hong who are greedy for success and make mistakes.Likewise, there can be people who do one thing in front of others but do another thing behind their backs.

The last one is Li Youjun.

Zhou Zhonghao shook his head when he heard this: "Your Excellency, Li Youjun's identity is not simple either. Although he is not as good as Shen Hong, who died before, he still has strong support in the Huangmen Yun Sect. We cannot afford to offend him. Moreover, The things he mentioned are not too troublesome, do you think you should just follow his wishes?"

"Trouble is indeed not troublesome, but if something is found out."

"My lord, are you worried that there are still some variables in this matter?"

"That's right. Envoy Zeng Xianghong has already given the conclusion about the ghost cultivator, which is to "run away" and then "continue to pay attention". Obviously he doesn't want to continue to focus on this. Once we help Li Youjun continue to collect clues, then Pass it to him, and if Li Youjun finally finds out something, can the news be suppressed? What do you think Zeng Xianghong will think then?"

After thinking for a while, Zhou Zhonghao had to admit that what Feng Mingyuan said was indeed reasonable, so after a moment of silence, he suggested: "My lord, why don't you talk to the envoy Zeng about this matter before you leave tomorrow? Since you want to choose a side, That subordinate still feels that it is safer to choose Zeng Shangshi."

Feng Mingyuan nodded, he had hesitated before.Now that Zhou Zhonghao mentioned the word "choose sides", he also made up his mind.

The next day, Feng Mingyuan sent Zeng Xianghong all the way out of the city early in the morning, and even waved goodbye after sending him for more than ten miles.

On the way, Feng Mingyuan also found an opportunity to tell Zeng Xianghong that Li Youjun had hinted that he asked the Lord's Palace of Yongchuan City to secretly continue to collect clues about ghost cultivators and send them to the capital.

But to Feng Mingyuan's expectation, Zeng Xianghong was not angry at all after hearing about this incident. He looked more like he had expected it.

"Young man, you have to be aggressive. It's not a bad thing that he is very interested in that ghost cultivator. If Mr. Feng can do what he can, you don't have to think that I will mind it. Just help him. But I hope If one day when Li Youjun comes alone to visit Yongchuan City again, Master Feng can let me know. How about it?"

When Zeng Xianghong said this, Feng Mingyuan naturally followed suit.

After they broke up, Feng Mingyuan left the matter to Zhou Zhonghao.In fact, the secret guards had collected a lot of information about ghost cultivators before, and now they were all transferred to the city lord's mansion by the Yamen.It was originally planned to be destroyed after Zeng Xianghong left.Now it seems that I need to sort it out again, and then come up with a relatively detailed document and hand it to Li Youjun.

Of course, no matter Feng Mingyuan, Zhou Zhonghao, or even Zeng Xianghong, they didn't think that they could sort out new and useful clues about ghost cultivation in Yongchuan City.It's all about dealing with it.No one thought that it seemed to be just going through the motions, and no one thought that a new discovery of clues would plant a seed to reveal the truth.
