Chapter 646: The Truth
Her voice stopped suddenly, and she didn't dare to say another word.
"Princess, please go out." The housekeeper knew that the city lord was angry and repeatedly asked Shangguan Murong to leave.
Shangguan Murong was really frightened. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, did not dare to say anything, and quickly turned around and left.
After Shangguan Murong left, Shangguan Hong continued to paint his paintings, as if nothing had happened.
But the butler on the side looked frightened.
What the princess just said was too much, and the city lord must be feeling very uncomfortable at the moment.
"City Lord, you haven't paid attention to the things in the city for a long time. I heard that the situation down there is getting more and more chaotic." The housekeeper looked at the portrait that was almost finished, breathed secretly, and carefully mentioned the things in the city.
The housekeeper wanted to divert some of his city lord's attention.
The housekeeper knew very well that the chaos was related to the princess's family.
The housekeeper also hopes that the city lord can cheer up and re-manage the affairs of the ghost city, not only for the ghost city, but also for the city lord.
In the past few years, the city lord has paid almost no attention to the affairs of the city. After retrieving the little princess, the city lord has not gone out again, and has not even left the castle for a long time.
The city lord imprisoned himself in the castle, and what he did every day was to draw portraits.
The housekeeper is worried that if this continues, the city lord will...
The man seemed not to have heard the butler's words, and was still concentrating on his painting. It seemed that his whole person, his whole heart, and his whole soul were completely immersed in the painting.
When the housekeeper saw him like this, his face changed slightly, and there was more worry in his eyes. He was most afraid of seeing the city lord like this.
Such a city lord has nothing to worry about and seems to be able to leave at any time...
"City Lord, many businesses in the Ghost City have had problems recently, and they are very serious." The housekeeper didn't want to let him continue to be in such a state of ruin, so the housekeeper thought it would be good to find something for him to do as much as possible.
"Let Acheng handle it." The man finally replied, but there was no emotional change on the man's face, and his eyes were still staring at his painting.
In this way, he has a kind of alienation that is completely isolated from the world, as if nothing in the world can be tolerated in his world!!
And he can't see everything in this world.
"City Lord, Acheng can't handle this situation well." The housekeeper's heart trembled slightly as he looked at him. He exhaled secretly and suddenly raised his voice.
He knew that the city lord did not want to be disturbed when he was painting the portrait, but now he had to disturb...
But even though the housekeeper raised his voice, the man still didn't respond. He seemed to have fallen into his own world and couldn't get out.
"City Lord, City Lord..." The housekeeper raised his voice even more and shouted several times in succession.
The man finally reacted. He frowned slightly, then raised his eyes and glanced at the housekeeper. That look was very indifferent, indifferent without any emotion, the kind of indifference that escapes the world of mortals.
"City Lord, what happened this time is very serious and Acheng can't solve it." Seeing that he finally had a reaction, the housekeeper repeated what he just said.
The housekeeper is just thinking about something that can attract the attention of the city lord, so that the city lord should not just be immersed in the portrait.
So the housekeeper made the matter very serious.
"If you can't solve it, don't solve it." The man's eyes blinked slowly, his sexy thin lips moved slightly, and the words came out so naturally.
housekeeper:"……"
If it can’t be solved, don’t solve it?!
City Lord, don’t you realize that what you said is too willful?!!
And this is not the result he wants!!!
The housekeeper discovered that the city lord's condition seemed to be getting more and more serious during this period. He felt that the city lord was becoming more and more indifferent to worldly affairs and became less and less concerned.
This is definitely not a good sign for the city lord.
The housekeeper thought for a while and spoke again: "City Lord, you haven't left the headquarters of the Ghost City for more than thirty years. How about we go out and take a look. It has been more than thirty years. There must have been great changes outside."
"City Lord, let's go look for it again and see if we can find out any news about Yue Li and Lu Shu. The princess said that her brain was injured at that time and she couldn't remember anything. Maybe Yue Li and Lu Shu are still alive. If they can
Find them, say you can find the princess, what exactly have you gone through, and why has she changed so much?" The steward said this just to make the city lord go out and talk casually.
He knew very well that since the little princess was kidnapped back then, Yue Li and Lu Shu would definitely be in bad luck.
In fact, they had already checked, but found nothing.
The housekeeper thought that what he said would have no effect, but he found that his city lord actually stopped.
Shangguan Hong looked at the portrait in front of him, his eyes flashing: "When I found her, the moment I looked into her eyes, I felt that she was not my daughter."
The housekeeper was stunned. No wonder the first thing the city lord did after he came back was to have a paternity test done.
But the results of the paternity test proved that it was their little princess.
He remembered that the city lord stared at the paternity test for a long time, but said nothing in the end.
The princess was arranged to live in the castle.
The butler's lips trembled slightly: "City Lord, what do you mean?"
Shangguan Hong suddenly said: "Go and make arrangements, we will go out tomorrow."
For some reason, he suddenly wanted to go out.
He did have doubts at the time, but the results of the paternity test made him accept it.
In fact, he later asked people to check, but no information was ever found.
More than thirty years have passed, and he suddenly wanted to go out and see again.
Or if he doesn't go out, he won't have a chance.
"City Lord, do you want to take care of the affairs of the Ghost City? Recently, the Ghost City has become more and more chaotic." The housekeeper was very worried, so he hoped that the City Lord would notice some other things.
"A-Zhong, I have not cared about the Ghost City for many years." The corners of Shangguan Hong's lips curled up slightly, and his words were very plain, so plain that no emotion could be heard.
housekeeper:"……"
The city lord finally realized that he had not cared about the ghost city for many years?
Now that the city lord is aware of it, shouldn’t he take serious control of it?!
"The world is so big, no matter who is added or missing, it won't have much impact." Just as the housekeeper was thinking, he heard Shangguan Hong's voice coming over again.
These words were so philosophical that the housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and some of them did not come back to their senses.
