Chapter 904: Bai Ling Family
Han Sanqian frowned slightly. Judging from Huang Xiaoyong's concern for this surname, it seemed that Bai Ling had something special to do.
Although Bai Lingwan'er was answering Huang Xiaoyong's question, what she was watching was Han Sanqian.
"Wan'er was born with her surname Bai Ling, but she never told her real name to anyone else." Bai Lingwan'er said.
Huang Xiaoyong clearly showed a hint of unconcealed horror. Han Sanqian did not ask why he was surprised, but asked Bai Lingwan'er: "Since you haven't told others, why should you tell me?"
"Because Wan'er thinks that the young master is a good person." Bai Lingwan'er said.
Han Sanqian smiled helplessly.
He is a good person.
This doesn't sound very good. If it were on Earth, this would have other meanings.
"Huang Xiaoyong, find an inn to rest." Han Sanqian said to Huang Xiaoyong.
Huang Xiaoyong nodded and asked the boatman to dock directly, and the three of them got ashore together.
At this time, in addition to Xiao Leng and his son, the Xiao family also had a mighty middle-aged man standing beside them. He was the current lord of Xiaoling City, and Xiao Zhan’s younger brother, Xiao Dou.
"Dad, second uncle, can you just forget about this?" For Xiao Leng, who had never suffered any setbacks, kneeling down to Huang Xiaoyong was a great humiliation in life. He could not accept this reality as a foregone conclusion. In his heart, only by taking revenge can we reduce the hatred in his heart.
Xiao Dou looked at Xiao Leng helplessly. No matter what mistake Xiao Leng made, he, the elder who was an uncle, would help Xiao Leng. After all, he is the lord of Xiaoling City, and he has the ability to hide most of the things.
But this time the incident was different, involving the seven-star beast master in the imperial court, and Huang Xiaoyong's identity did not need to be investigated at all. After all, the people in the imperial court have indeed been to Longyun City recently, and from this point, they can confirm Huang Xiaoyong's identity.
The Xiao family can cover the sky with only one hand in Xiaoling City, but it is definitely not something that the Xiao family can do indiscriminately.
"Xiao Dou, what do you think you should do this?" Xiao Zhan asked Xiao Dou.
"In order to avoid Huang Xiaoyong making things difficult for the Xiao family with any excuses, he also needs to come to the door to apologize." Xiao Dou said.
"What!" Xiao Leng looked angry. He had already knelt down to Huang Xiaoyong before, and was in public. This was not enough. Do you have to apologize to Huang Xiaoyong?
This is something that Xiao Leng absolutely cannot accept. He has given up his dignity once. How could such a thing happen for the second time?
"Uncle Second, are you crazy? You still want me to apologize to him. Don't you know that I have knelt down to him?" Xiao Leng said gritting his teeth.
"Xiao Leng, I know you are very dissatisfied, but you need to know that Huang Xiaoyong's identity is not just a simple imperial court person. He has the identity of a seven-star beast master. Even if he goes to the imperial court, he has a certain status. Such a person is definitely not something that my Xiao family can provoke." Xiao Dou said. He is not a lord who bows his head easily. Even when conflicts broke out with other cities, Xiao Dou was also very strong, but this time, he had to bow his head. The imperial court is supreme, and no city can shake the status of the imperial court.
"Xiao Leng, do you think the Xiao family can go against him?" Xiao Zhan asked.
Xiao Leng's eyes were full of murderous intent and said, "Kill him, will the imperial court really dare to destroy my Xiao family? If my Xiao family is gone, who else can command Xiaoling City? Xiaoling City pays tribute to the imperial court every year. Will the imperial court dare to ignore my Xiao family?"
Bang!
As soon as Xiao Leng finished speaking, Xiao Zhan slapped him in the face with a loud slap.
The reason why Xiao Zhan asked such a question was to see how ignorant Xiao Leng was. He actually wanted to take revenge even though he knew that Huang Xiaoyong was from the imperial court.
What Xiao Leng said made Xiao Zhan extremely disappointed. This son, who had been spoiled since childhood, was really ignorant of the world. He actually thought that the imperial court did not dare to ignore the Xiao family.
"Xiao Leng, I didn't expect you to be so arrogant." Xiao Zhan said coldly.
Xiao Leng touched his face that was so painful. He has been the treasure of the Xiao family since he was a child and has never been beaten!
"Father, my Xiao family's foundation for so many years is not worthy of the imperial court's slightest fear?" Xiao Leng said dissatisfied.
Xiao Dou patted Xiao Leng on the shoulder at this time and said, "Any family, as long as they are in the territory of the imperial court, is not qualified to go against the imperial court. As long as the imperial court is willing, he can support a family that is stronger than the Xiao family to rule Xiaoling City at any time. To the imperial court, the Xiao family is like an ant."
"The Bai Ling family was so powerful back then, but the final outcome was destroyed. This is enough to prove that the majesty of the imperial court cannot be provoked. What is my little Xiao Xiao family?" Xiao Zhan said with a self-deprecating smile.
Speaking of the Bai Ling family, a hint of horror flashed across Xiao Dou's face, while Xiao Leng looked inexplicably.
Obviously, Xiao Dou knew the interests of it, but Xiao Leng knew nothing at all.
"Is the Bailing family very powerful? Why haven't I heard of it?" Xiao Leng asked.
"This happened when we were young. The Bailing family was known as the first family under the imperial court. There were countless cities under it. Many people even believed that the Bailing family could overthrow the imperial court and establish a new dynasty. However, later, the Bailing family bleed into a river overnight without leaving any chickens and dogs. This is a warning from the imperial court to the world. It is telling everyone that no one can fight against the imperial court." Xiao Zhan's eyes were filled with fear. He could not imagine what consequences would be caused when the Xiao family angered the imperial court.
Even the Bai Ling family cannot resist the imperial court. Isn’t it just a mere Xiao family?
Xiao Leng has never experienced that year, so he cannot understand the fear that this incident caused to the insider. However, he understood one thing. Xiao Zhan and Xiao Dou would never go against the imperial court, and there is only a dead end to the imperial court when they are against the imperial court.
Xiao Leng is domineering, but it does not mean that he has no IQ. He knows very well what basic conditions he can continue to live the life of a young master.
"Father, second uncle, if you ask me to apologize to Huang Xiaoyong, I will do what you said." Xiao Leng said.
"I know you are very unwilling to give up, but in this matter, you have no choice but to swallow your anger. Unless one day, you are also qualified to enter the imperial court and challenge Huang Xiaoyong. That is the time to take revenge." Xiao Zhan said.
