Being a Lady of an Influential Family

Generally speaking, the fun level of the banquet is distinguished according to the level. The more advanced the banquet, the more boring it is for the onlookers, and once it rises to the level of a state banquet, it will be extremely boring.

After all, the interesting meaning of life is to do things, and there are not many strange people who dare to do things at other countries' state banquets.

Even if there is that kind of brain damage, most of them will be locked up at home, and they will not be released to hang out at state banquets in other countries.

So during the whole banquet, apart from sitting and chatting and drinking with the young marshals, and listening to the nonsense of distinguished guests who know or don't know with Fu Fengcheng, the whole banquet can really be described as boring.

She even started to miss Mrs. Xing and Gong Sihe a little bit.

It's a pity that these two didn't come to the banquet, even if they did, they might not dare to make a scene.

Until... a familiar gunshot slammed the entire banquet hall.

Generally, no one does small things, but once something happens, it must be a big thing.

Leaning against Fu Fengcheng's ear, Leng Sa said in a low voice, "Yiguo c-276 rifle, the effective range is 600 meters, and the shooting distance is about 400 meters. One o'clock direction, the opposite building."

When Leng Sa said these words, Fu Fengcheng had already hugged him into his arms, so no one heard him. Fu Fengcheng nodded casually, "Someone assassinated the king."

The banquet hall was on the second floor, and the bullet was shot directly from the terrace on the second floor at King Naga, who was standing outside talking to people.

The entire banquet hall suddenly fell into panic, and the lady's terrified screams were heard endlessly.

Many Naga officials, royal family members and security personnel rushed towards the terrace.

Long Yue slightly raised his eyebrows, a little curious, "Naga has lost his face this time, right?"

Song Lang stood up, and said angrily, "Is it a matter of embarrassment now? It's hard to say whether the old man will live or not. The shot seems to have hit his chest." King Naga was assassinated and died. Talking in Congress is really interesting.

Fu Fengcheng also pulled Leng Sa to stand up, "Brother Song, find Prince Mu and Deputy Chief Lu." He lowered his head and said to Leng Sa, "Thank you Madam."

Leng Sa immediately understood what he meant and nodded with a smile: "Don't worry." After speaking, she walked towards Prince Mu and Deputy Chief Lu together with Song Lang.

Lou Lanzhou said, "Young Master Zhang and I will go find Miss Huizhi."

Long Yue nodded and said, "Young Master Fu and I went ahead to have a look. Young Master Shen and Young Master Yue..." Shen Sinian said, "Let's go to see other people."

As for the Dragon Governor, no one mentioned it and no one cared about it. After all, his son was not worried, so what were they worried about?

Of course, the Dragon Governor is not old enough to worry about young people like them.

Although there was chaos in the hall, Naga officials quickly began to reassure the guests. Because they were not sure what was going on outside, they couldn't let the guests leave at this time, so they could only be led to a place away from the terrace to sit and rest.

Deputy Chief Lu and Prince Mu obviously didn't need anyone to comfort them. When the hall was in chaos, they quickly retreated to a quiet corner, and Zhuo Lin was with them.

When Leng Sa and Song Lang approached, the three of them were leaning against a huge pillar to discuss things, and they didn't look worried at all.

"Why are you here?" Deputy Chief Lu asked the two of them.

Song Lang raised his eyebrows slightly, "Come and see the three of you."

Deputy Chief Lu naturally understood what he meant, and said with a smile, "You are determined, don't worry, there will be no chaos. Just... I wonder if this meeting can continue?" If King Naga really died, they were originally here Those who attend the ceremony of conferring the crown prince by the way during the meeting may have to attend the succession ceremony instead.

But... it's hard to say who will succeed in the end, and how.

In short, I still hope that King Naga is fine.

Prince Mu also said, "Brother Lu is right, but it's not bad to have Mrs. Fu and Ms. Zhuo with her. Both of them are heroines in the middle school. Didn't they live together before? They should hit it off very well."

Zhuo Lin smiled lightly, "Mrs. Fu is the real heroine among women."

Leng Sa smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Highness the Prince, and Ms. Zhuo for your compliments. I was lucky enough to live with Ms. Zhuo and benefited a lot. It's a pity that I am an idler. You are a busy person and dare not bother you."

Facing this Ms. Zhuo, Leng Sa's mood is actually a bit complicated. According to her and Fu Fengcheng's unreliable guesses, Governor Fu probably had a relationship with this guy when he was young, and the reason why they broke up is most likely because Governor Fu was a scumbag.

Although getting along with each other these days can't see that Ms. Zhuo will be prejudiced because of their relationship with Governor Fu, but it is precisely because of this that it makes people feel more guilty.

In addition, Leng Sa felt that she already understood why Dujun Fu hated Dujun Long so much. It was obvious that his predecessor had gone to show off his skills on his enemy's territory for 20 years, so it was no wonder that Dujun Fu liked Dujun Long.

The hall gradually calmed down. Prince Mu and Deputy Chief Lu looked at each other and said, "Shall we go and have a look?" The king was assassinated, and it seemed a little bad for them to ignore him.

Zhuo Lin said: "You two go, I won't make trouble."

Leng Sa also immediately said, "I will accompany Ms. Zhuo, Young Master Song will accompany Prince Mu and Deputy Chief Lu." Song Lang naturally had no objection, and made a gesture of invitation to the two, and the three walked towards the balcony go.

Zhuo Lin looked around and said, "It seems that we won't be able to leave for a while, why don't we go sit there?"

Leng Sa nodded and smiled, "Okay, Ms. Zhuo please."

Follow Zhuo Lin to the side of the banquet hall, where there is a table and several chairs against the wall. Blocked by pillars and decorations, it can be regarded as a world of its own.

Even if they want to go out at this time, the Naga people will not let them go easily. In this case, it is better to sit down and rest for a while than to run around.

"Ms. Zhuo, what do you want to tell me?" Sitting down opposite Zhuo Lin, Leng Sa asked softly.

Zhuo Lin looked at Leng Sa without saying a word, Leng Sa looked down with some doubts and found nothing wrong with her clothes. When she was puzzled, she heard Zhuo Lin chuckle, "Young Madam Fu...do you have any concerns about me?"

Leng Sa blinked innocently, expressing that she did not understand what Ms. Zhuo was talking about.

Zhuo Lin shook her head and said, "I had a pleasant chat with Mrs. Fu on the train a few days ago. I thought Mrs. Fu felt the same way. It seems I misunderstood."

"..." Was it because she was hiding from Ms. Zhuo too clearly? In fact, Leng Sa didn't deliberately hide from people, but just remembered those possible past events, and felt a little embarrassed.

Thinking of this, Leng Sa couldn't help but secretly scolded a certain warlord in his heart. Such a stunning beauty with both talent and appearance can be a scumbag, it can be seen that Governor Fu is really a big scumbag!

Zhuo Lin held her chin and looked at Leng Sa, as if she found her expression very interesting.

Leng Sa came back to her senses, her expression froze immediately.

Why did she suddenly feel that she was a fool in front of this Ms. Zhuo? She was still distracted when he was sitting in front of her!

"Mrs. Fu must have heard some rumors?" Zhuo Lin laughed.

Leng Sa blinked even more innocently, looking forward to transforming into Lan Mengmeng at this moment to gain Ms. Zhuo's trust by showing off her cuteness.

Zhuo Lin said: "Actually, it's nothing. It's all in the past. I think Mrs. Fu is a friend worth making. In Anxia... a strange woman like Mrs. Fu is also rare. I hope you don't get trapped by your identity Gender can also set a good example for women in Anxia."

Leng Sa said, "Ms. Zhuo is already a role model for all girls in Anxia."

Zhuo Lin raised her eyebrows and said, "You really think so?"

Leng Sa thought about it carefully, but did not answer.

Anxia's girls admire Zhuo Lin a lot, but to be honest, they don't learn much from her.

Leng Sa knew so many common people, high-ranking officials and ladies, or female students in colleges, Song Xuan was the only one who really showed that she wanted to emulate Zhuo Lin in her official career.

The biggest reason is probably because Zhuo Lin is over forty years old and still not married.

Even though the atmosphere in Anxia is now very free, it is still a big rebellion for a girl not to get married.

Not to mention the present, even in Leng Sa's previous life, many female elites in the workplace would be driven crazy by their parents' forced marriages.

Therefore, in the eyes of many parents, Zhuo Lin is very powerful, but she is definitely not someone her own girls should learn to emulate.

"Ms. Zhuo... because I'm married?" Leng Sa asked curiously.

Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "Of course not, but...there are more women who are willing to come out to do things, so the so-called equality between men and women can be truly realized, isn't it? Otherwise, no matter how loud the slogan is, it will be empty words." The policy that women can hold official positions It has been passed for many years, but now, let alone a senior official at Zhuo Lin's level, even a much lower level can't even reach the ratio of one to one hundred men and women.

The so-called work of women in official institutions is mostly as secretaries, operators, serving tea and water.

Leng Sa nodded respectfully, "Ms. Zhuo is right."

Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "I'm getting old, and I still have to rely on you young people in the future. However, your generation is much better than ours at that time, and I think it will be even better in the future."

Leng Sa said, "Ms. Zhuo, don't underestimate yourself. If you are considered old, will others still be alive?" Looking at the elegant and beautiful lady with a smile in front of her, Leng Sa looked around and still couldn't help but whisper Said, "Ms. Zhuo, can I...can I ask you a question?"

Zhuo Lin spread her hands and said with a smile, "Ask whatever you want."

Leng Sa hesitated for a moment, "You... you and the warlord... uh, you don't need to answer."

Zhuo Lin shook her head and said, "You don't need to be so careful, your family... looked pretty good when she was young."

"Huh?" Leng Sa was a little dazed.

Zhuo Lin raised her eyebrows and said, "You like Mr. Fu, isn't it because he is good-looking?"

"..." Although this is true, but you...

Seemingly pleased by Leng Sa's expression, Zhuo Lin laughed softly while holding the wine glass.

After a while, he sighed softly and said, "Young girls, who doesn't have a time to worship heroes? It just so happened that he and Long Xiao were the most famous heroes in Anxia's capital at that time. I was dizzy for a while, and accidentally fell chant."

"dragon……"

"My family is somewhat related to Long Xiao's family. We have known each other since we were young. You know, no matter how powerful someone is who you know too well, you won't feel much. Besides, Long Xiao couldn't read me since he was a child. I always praise him, I think his brain is not working."

Leng Sa is speechless, don't you think that compared with Du Jun Long who is still facing the wind, Du Jun Fu is like the one with a bad brain?

Needless to say, at least this Ms. Zhuo had poor eyesight when she was young.

"Then why are you divided again? It's because of Governor Fu..."

Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "It should be regarded as a disagreement, but the things of the older generation have nothing to do with you young people. I saw you and Young Master Fu seemed a little cautious when facing me. There is no need to be like this, even if you want to I can't find you even if I ask someone to settle accounts. Unless Fu Zheng doesn't let you associate with me?"

"No!" Leng Sa immediately denied. In fact, Governor Fu seemed to hope that she would spend more time with Zhuo Lin.

Zhuo Lin nodded and said, "That's it. It's been more than 20 years since those shitty things happened. Whether it's right or wrong, it's already gone. Keep it in mind, should I do anything else?"

Seeing Zhuo Lin's determined and free-spirited expression, Leng Sa felt more admiration for the lady in front of her.

She knew in her heart that in Ms. Zhuo's heart, no matter who was right and who was wrong, it was over. It was just a memory of her youth, so there was no need to harbor resentment, and no need to linger on it.

She has been alone for more than 20 years and it is not because of love, but because she really hasn't found a partner that she thinks is suitable for a lifetime.

How many women in this world can do this kind of free and easy?

"Ms. Zhuo, why did you tell me this?"

Zhuo Lin said, "After you arrived in the capital, many people should have mentioned the events of those years in front of you, right?"

Leng Sa nodded, even if he didn't say it directly, there were a lot of explicit hints to Leng Sa.

Zhuo Lin said, "Those people... all of them wish to become smart when they get older. Instead of listening to their nonsense, it's better for me to explain it to you, so that you young people don't think too much about it." .”

"You really don't care?" Leng Sa asked.

Zhuo Lin lowered her head, took a sip of her wine, and said with a smile, "Why should I care, I don't have enough things? Or is it that I'm not old enough to live another hundred years?"

Leng Sa couldn't help but smile, raised her glass and said with a smile, "Ms. Zhuo is right, I respect you."

Zhuo Lin lightly clinked the wine glass with her, and they both looked at each other and smiled.

The two chatted while paying attention to the situation in the hall. King Naga had already been carried down for treatment. The orchestra, which had been briefly suspended, resumed playing, and the Naga royal family and officials were reassuring the guests, apologizing to the frightened guests one by one.

Seeing Fu Fengcheng approaching, the two stopped talking and both looked at Fu Fengcheng.

"Ms. Zhuo." Fu Fengcheng walked up to the two and stood still, bowing slightly to Zhuo Lin.

Zhuo Lin smiled, "Young Master Fu, you're welcome. How's it going over there?"

Fu Fengcheng took a look at Leng Sa before replying, "King Naga was injured a little bit, so there should be no danger to his life. The Naga people have already searched the vicinity, and the assassin has already run away, so we can go." In such a situation, Naturally, the banquet couldn't go on.

Zhuo Lin nodded, stood up and smiled at the two of them, "Then let's go."

Leng Sa also supported Fu Fengcheng's shoulders to stand up, and asked in a low voice in Fu Fengcheng's ear, "King Naga is alright?"

Fu Fengcheng nodded slightly, "Slightly injured."

The two exchanged a look, and walked out with Zhuo Lin without saying anything more.

With a shooting distance of 400 meters, how could it be a minor injury in the middle of the chest?

Does King Naga have any special defensive skills or wear body armor?

Because the king was injured, the banquet ended in a hurry. In the end, Carlos did not come out to see off the guests. Instead, several princes and princes sent the guests out of the palace.

It wasn't until the car drove out of the palace that Leng Sa looked back at the palace that was still shining brightly in the night before he was slightly relieved.

Fu Fengcheng sat beside her and glanced sideways at her, then said softly, "What's wrong? Are you tired?"

Leng Sa shook her head, "No, just... I'm a little curious about who wants to assassinate King Naga?" Fu Fengcheng shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

After all, they were foreigners, and the situation in Naga was only roughly introduced by the ambassador. For a while, I really couldn't figure out who was going to assassinate the king.

"The king was assassinated, so the talks between the five countries and the canonization of the crown prince should be postponed, right?" Leng Sa asked.

Fu Fengcheng frowned slightly and said, "I'm afraid it will be postponed, stay in the embassy for the next two days, don't go out and run around."

Leng Sa nodded and smiled, "Well, don't worry, I know."

In another car ahead of them, Governor Long and Zhuo Lin sat in the back row.

The people in front were concentrating on driving, but Governor Long looked out the window and suddenly said, "What did you say to that girl from the Fu family?"

Zhuo Lin said indifferently, "It's nothing, young people like to think too much after hearing a few nonsense, tell her that there is no need to hold grudges because of what happened back then."

Governor Long chuckled, "You can think about it, but I'm afraid Fu Zheng can't think about it."

Zhuo Lin said, "Whether he wants it or not, what does it have to do with me?" After a pause, Zhuo Lin turned to look at Governor Long, "What does the Governor want to say?"

Governor Long coughed lightly, and said, "I'm a little flustered when you're so serious, cousin. How many times have I been stabbed by Fu Zheng over the years because of you? Are you treating me like this?"

Zhuo Lin said: "I'm not from the Sheng family anymore, don't call me cousin. Why don't we settle the score and get more refunds and less compensation?"

"Don't, I'm just joking." Long Dujun hurriedly stopped him. If he really settled the score, he must make up for himself.

After all, Zhuo Lin was really powerful, and Fu Zheng really didn't do anything except flirt with him.

Seeing her serious appearance, Dujun Long sighed, "Why bother? Your old lady was also confused for a while, after all, the old people at that age are about the same. Since you can treat Fu Zheng's son and daughter-in-law calmly Now, it can be seen that the things of the past have really been let go. It is not easy for the old lady to grow old. Your sister still missed you mother and daughter before she died, so she wrote to me specially to ask me to persuade you. "

Mentioning her sister Zhuo Lin's expression moved slightly, she was silent for a long time before she said calmly, "It's different, I don't blame her for meddling in my affairs with Fu Zheng back then, even without her we couldn't last long."

"What is that for?" Dujun Long was puzzled.

Zhuo Lin smiled slightly bitterly, "I just don't understand, she is our mother, and she is also a woman, how could she be so cruel? She always said that the eldest sister is the most obedient, good-natured, and well-married, she is the best of the Sheng family. An outstanding daughter. But... the eldest sister is healthy, she will die before forty, why? When she was alive, how many days did she live comfortably?"

Governor Long was also silent. He was a man after all, and he couldn't empathize with women's pain.

But he had personally witnessed how Zhuo Lin completely left the Sheng family. For this cousin who was not particularly close by blood, even a person like Long Dujun had nothing to say except admiration.

"Forget it, I won't persuade you. I'm afraid she won't be there for a few years, as long as you don't regret it in the future." Long Dujun said.

Zhuo Lin nodded, "I see."
