Chapter 41: The Mediator
Inside the Treasure Pavilion.
Director Ji Ya, with a guard from the City Lord's Mansion, hurried to the room where Fang Ruhai was.
"Pavilion Master, someone is coming from the City Lord's Mansion." Ji Ya said aloud from outside the door.
"Come in." Fang Ruhai's voice came from inside.
Ji Ya led the guards and entered the room.
"Is the city lord okay?" Fang Ruhai looked at the black-clothed guards in the city lord's mansion.
He has a very good relationship with the city lord, so whenever there is anything, for example, if Qiao Ruxue wants him to go over and talk about something, he will directly ask the guards to invite him to the Treasure Pavilion. Therefore, he is also used to the guards of the City Lord's Mansion coming to the Treasure Pavilion.
"My lord, if you don't have any important matters to deal with now, my lord would like to invite you over." The guard bowed and said.
"I see, let's go." Fang Ruhai nodded.
The city lord often invites him over, and most of the time, it's just drinking tea and chatting, usually nothing serious. Therefore, he didn't care too much, waved his hand and said so to the guards of the City Lord's Mansion.
Less than half an hour later, Fang Ruhai appeared in the City Lord's Mansion.
Zheng Dongxue, the housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion, personally led Fang Ruhai to the reception room.
"What's the situation?" Fang Ruhai's heart moved slightly.
Because, when Qiao Ruxue invited him over, she had never been to the reception room of the City Lord's Mansion. This time, it is obviously different, so what is it?
"Butler Zheng, why did the city lord find me?" Fang Ruhai asked casually.
"My lord, I don't know the specifics, but it should be related to the Wang family. Just now, Wang Lieyang, the head of the Wang family, came to see the city lord. I didn't know what they were talking about, but not long after, the city lord ordered the guards Please come to Zhenbao Pavilion." Zheng Dongxue turned around and said.
"Oh, thank you very much." Fang Ruhai smiled.
"Small matter." Zheng Dongxue also waved his hand, there is no need to hide this bit of information.
Although Zheng Dongxue was born strong and the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, his attitude was still very respectful in front of Fang Ruhai. Fang Ruhai is a person of the same level as the city lord. As a housekeeper, he really dare not put on airs in front of him. Of course, Zheng Dongxue is usually more polite to others.
"Pavilion Master Fang is here."
Qiao Ruxue saw the butler walking in with Fang Ruhai, stood up and said with a smile.
Wang Lieyang naturally stood up to greet him.
"City Master!" Fang Ruhai cupped his hands to Qiao Ruxue, and then turned his eyes to Wang Lieyang again, "Patriarch Wang is here too!"
"Yes, I have something to ask the City Lord, so I'm here, Pavilion Master Fang." Wang Lieyang bowed slightly and smiled.
"Sit down!" Qiao Ruxue said to the two with a smile.
All three sat down.
Butler Zheng Xuedong withdrew. If there was anything he needed to know, the city lord Qiao Ruxue would definitely let him stay. Since the city lord didn't say this, he doesn't need to stay.
"The city lord asked me to come, what's the matter?" Fang Ruhai narrowed his eyes slightly, and smiled.
"There is indeed something I want to ask Pavilion Master Fang." Qiao Ruxue nodded.
She glanced at Wang Lieyang, and then said, "Patriarch Wang's son, Wang Xiaotian, had a battle with Lu Chen from the Lu family in Zhenbao Pavilion not long ago. I wonder if Pavilion Master Fang knows about it?"
Hearing Qiao Ruxue's words, Fang Ruhai frowned.
Fang Ruhai heard from Ji Ya about the battle between Lu Chen and Wang Xiaotian. Fang Ruhai was also a little surprised by what he just learned. He didn't expect that Lu Chen was in the realm of marrow washing, and he could defeat Wang Xiaotian, a mid-stage marrow washing practitioner. However, considering that Lu Chen was already a senior pharmacist at a young age, defeating Wang Xiaotian was not enough to shock people.
It seems that some miracles always happen to Lu Chen!
Now, Qiao Ruxue asked him to come over and ask about it. Obviously, it was the Patriarch of the Wang Family who told the City Lord about this matter.
But, what did Qiao Ruxue ask him, the Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion, to come over?
Could it be that Wang Lieyang still wants to take responsibility for this matter?
Thinking of this, Fang Ruhai glanced at Wang Lieyang with some displeasure. If Wang Lieyang really wanted to compensate him, then he had found the wrong person.
"I know about it." Fang Ruhai nodded and said, the smile on his face had already disappeared.
Wang Lieyang had been observing Fang Ruhai's expression, and when he saw Fang Ruhai's face turned cold, his heart suddenly moved.
Could it be that Lu Chen is really Fang Ruhai's illegitimate son?
"Hehe, Patriarch Wang's son was hurt by Lu Chen's martial arts meridians on the fighting stage, so Patriarch Wang was very angry and wanted to ask the Lu family for an explanation." Of course, Qiao Ruxue also saw Fang Ruhai's displeasure. With a chuckle, he continued, "It's just that before that, Patriarch Wang wanted to confirm his opinion. He got some news that Lu Chen was the illegitimate son of Pavilion Master Fang. He didn't know if this matter was true or not."
Qiao Ruxue herself was also curious.
For a strong person like her, there are not many things that can interest her in the whole Qingfeng City.
If Fang Ruhai had an illegitimate child, it would be something worthy of gossip. Therefore, she also looked at Fang Ruhai with great interest.
"What?" Fang Ruhai's breath suddenly froze.
Chase Lu, is my illegitimate child?
He never thought that when Qiao Ruxue called him over, he would actually ask such a question.
Fang Ruhai's face turned a little green!
"It's just nonsense!"
"Lu Chen, when did you become my illegitimate child? It's ridiculous!" Fang Ruhai rolled his eyes and said angrily.
"Patriarch Wang, where did you get this news? Don't you know that Lu Chen is the son of Lu Yizhou and the grandson of Lu Tianxing?" Fang Ruhai was really angry, and was already very dissatisfied with Wang Lieyang.
"This... Pavilion Master Fang, please calm down. It's just a rumor, it's just a rumor, I just want to confirm it, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding." Wang Lieyang quickly expressed his apology.
Hearing Fang Ruhai's denial, he was relieved. At this time, Fang Ruhai still denied it, which proved that Lu Chen was not Fang Ruhai's illegitimate son. If so, Fang Ruhai would definitely not deny it, because Fang Ruhai should be able to be sure that he wanted to do something to Lu Chen.
If someone does something to his son, even if he wants to hide this information that the outside world does not know, he will not deny it.
If Lu Chen is really Fang Ruhai's son, Fang Ruhai will definitely tell him Wang Lieyang and warn him not to touch Lu Chen.
"Calm your anger!" Fang Ruhai stared at his eyes, "Patriarch Wang, you know the rules of the Zhenbao Pavilion. It's good that Wang Xiaotian is your son, but in the Zhenbao Pavilion, he is not only the resource and Lu Chen on the martial arts arena, but he is even the one who takes the initiative. Provoke Lu Chen. In this case, even if he was beheaded by Lu Chen on the martial arts arena, you shouldn't trouble Lu Chen or the Lu family."
"Governor Fang, I also know. But, Lu Chen is too vicious, he ruined Xiaotian's martial arts career. If Xiaotian was just defeated, I would definitely not say a word, but Xiaotian, this child, has a martial arts career. It was completely ruined! Martial arts meridian is damaged, and he has no hope of breaking through the innate realm in his whole life." Wang Lieyang was trembling all over, blood rushing up.
I don't know if he was pretending, or if he was really annoyed and couldn't control it.
"Patriarch Wang, so you must kill Lu Chen?" Fang Ruhai frowned and said in a deep voice.
"I have to make Lu Chen pay the price. Otherwise, people outside will say that my Wang family is afraid of the Lu family." Wang Lieyang gritted his teeth, and also looked at Fang Ruhai.
"Hmph, Lu Chen is the honorary pharmacist of my Zhenbao Pavilion. If you want to touch Lu Chen, I can't agree." Fang Ruhai simply said it directly.
If you, Wang Lieyang, want to touch Lu Chen, you are against us, Fang Ruhai. You'd better weigh it carefully before making a decision.
In fact, Lu Chen is not the honorary pharmacist of Zhenbao Pavilion.
Although there was some cooperation between Lu Chen and Zhenbao Pavilion, Zhenbao Pavilion did not invite Lu Chen to be their honorary pharmacist. Of course, Zhenbao Pavilion does have this plan, but it has not had time to discuss with Lu Chen.
At this time, Fang Ruhai was obviously angry with Wang Lieyang, that's why he said such words. Of course, he also wanted to keep Lu Chen, a senior pharmacist who cooperated with Zhenbao Pavilion.
"Honorary pharmacist?" Wang Lieyang's eyes suddenly sank, "Hehe, Pavilion Master Fang, I have always respected you very much. However, if you want to prevent me from avenging my son, it may take a lot of effort .”
Wang Lieyang is not a clay figurine either. He was afraid of Fang Ruhai, but if pressed, he would dare to jump out and resist.
"Patriarch Wang, are you threatening me?" Fang Ruhai also froze, staring at Wang Lieyang.
"Two!" Qiao Ruxue, the city lord, frowned when she saw that the two were fighting each other. She stood up and gently raised her arms.
Fang Ruhai and Wang Lieyang both looked at Qiao Ruxue.
This is the City Lord's Mansion!
Even if they want to quarrel, or even fight, it is obviously inappropriate in the City Lord's Mansion.
"Listen to me, in my opinion, why don't you take a step back?" Qiao Ruxue looked at the two of them.
"City Lord..." Wang Lieyang looked gloomy.
"Patriarch Wang, I don't want a large-scale massacre to happen in Qingfeng City under my control. I hope you can consider my suggestion." Qiao Ruxue said sternly.
Seeing that Qiao Ruxue seemed a little angry, Wang Lieyang fell silent.
"I ordered someone to invite the head of the Lu family to come over and see if the Lu family can compensate the Wang family." Qiao Ruxue said.
Then, she asked the guards to come in and ask them to invite Lu Jinyun, the Patriarch of the Lu family.
Wang Lieyang could only keep silent. If he persisted at this time, it would be tantamount to offending Qiao Ruxue, Fang Ruhai, and the entire Lu family.
The Wang family couldn't bear to offend so many people.
After about half an hour passed, Lu Jinyun arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.
Although the guard of the City Lord's Mansion didn't say what the City Lord was looking for him for, as soon as he saw Wang Lieyang, he knew that it must have something to do with Lu Chen's injury to Wang Xiaotian.
"Hello, City Lord, and Pavilion Master Fang." Lu Jinyun cupped his hands to the two of them.
As for Wang Lieyang, he just ignored it.
Before, the relationship between the Wang family and the Lu family was on fire, but now that Lu Chen injured Wang Xiaotian, the relationship became even more rigid. greet? forget it!
"Patriarch Lu, please sit down!" Qiao Ruxue nodded politely and said to Lu Jinyun.
"The city lord asked me to come, what's the matter?" Lu Jinyun asked directly after sitting down.
"Hmph!" Wang Lieyang snorted coldly, with a raised eyebrow.
"It's because Wang Lieyang, the son of Patriarch Wang, was injured by Lu Chen. Now I'm here as a mediator. I hope you two families don't expand the matter." Qiao Ruxue said.
"This matter..." Lu Jinyun narrowed his eyes.
Thinking of Lu Chen hurting Wang Xiaotian, Lu Jinyun felt secretly refreshed.
You must know that there are three major families in Qingfeng City. Although the Lu family is one of the three major families, it is the weakest of the three families. Compared with the Wang family, it is somewhat inferior.
