Chapter 258 Li Wei, Zong Ling personally invites you!
There was a sea of people at the gate of Zongren Mansion.
As the number of people increased, the sweat on the captain's face continued to flow down his cheeks.
If this continues, there will be no way for this matter to end.
Wu'an Hou Su Cheng just wanted Master Zongling to come and invite him in person. I believe Master Zongling would definitely agree in order to calm the matter!
Thinking of this, the captain did not dare to neglect and returned to the hall of the clan mansion.
But at this time, Emperor Su Sheng in the palace also received news from the secret guards.
In the main hall, an old man was telling Su Sheng what happened at the gate of the clan mansion.
Su Sheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes after hearing this: "It seems that this Marquis of Wu'an is much smarter than I thought. It's his first time in Kyoto and he is not familiar with the place. He just used this clan to establish his authority."
"It just so happened that I killed a marquis in the sect's residence, and now King Zhao is still targeting him for whatever reason, so I gave him a chance."
Shaking his head, Su Sheng's eyes flashed with disappointment. He was completely disappointed with this family.
What is the most important thing in Kyoto?
Of course it’s a keen eye!
If you don’t have good eyesight, you won’t even know how you died!
But this King Zhao has no eyesight now!
Su Cheng is the person he likes, and he wants to use it to bring down other forces. Under this situation, King Zhao has been targeting Su Cheng. Even if Su Cheng doesn't take action, he will not let King Zhao go.
"Your Majesty, do you need your subordinates to handle this matter?" The old man from the secret guard suddenly spoke.
As long as the secret guard passes the emperor's command, King Zhao will definitely not dare to target Su Cheng again.
Su Sheng chuckled: "Handle it? Do you want me to intervene in this matter? Don't you see that Marquis Wu An wants to use this matter to establish his authority?"
"Okay, you don't need to worry about this matter. Just pay attention to it all the time. There are not many people in that clan, so they can't help Marquis Wu'an. I'm even looking forward to how King Zhao will end up next!"
"I understand!" The old secret guard immediately retreated.
At this time, in the lobby of the Zongren Mansion, the captain also told Su Xingchang exactly what Su Cheng said.
Su Xingchang was furious when he heard this: "He actually wants me to invite him? What a dream!"
I am a prince, and Su Cheng is just a marquis, why should I invite him?
Besides, it was obviously Su Cheng who came to the sect's mansion to do business. If he, the sect leader, went out to invite Su Cheng in, where would he lose his face?
Does Su Xingchang not want face?
But at this time, Zuo Zongzheng suddenly said: "This... Master Zongling, this matter cannot be a big deal."
You Zongzheng also said with a serious face: "There are more and more people outside now. Once this matter gets serious, we will have no way to end it."
When other officials saw this, they quickly persuaded him: "Master Zongling, after all, he is the Marquis of Wu'an awarded by your Majesty."
"Once this matter reaches His Majesty's ears, our clan will not be able to afford it."
The words of the officials made Su Xingchang's face instantly darken.
These guys were so eager to see his joke that they actually wanted to invite Su Cheng in!
But if he didn't go, it would be difficult for him to explain the matter to the emperor.
Thinking of this, Su Xingchang glanced at everyone, with a sneer on his lips: "Aren't you just going to invite Marquis Wu'an to come in? Since he is personally conferred by His Majesty, let's go together!"
If you want to embarrass everyone, Su Xingchang will not be the scapegoat!
The other officials of the Zongren Mansion were stunned. They did not expect that Su Xingchang would actually ask them to go out to greet him.
"This... he is just a marquis. If we all go to invite him, it seems a bit uncomfortable, right?" Someone raised a question.
Su Xingchang glanced at the man: "Why, does Marquis Liu think you are older than me? Even I want to go out to invite Marquis Wu'an, but you have to wait here?"
Upon hearing this, Naliuhou's face changed drastically, and he quickly lowered his head and bowed to salute: "I...I didn't mean that."
"Hmph, that's enough. Let's all go out with this king and invite Marquis Wu'an to come in!" Su Xingchang snorted coldly and walked out first.
The other officials looked at each other. Although they didn't want to go out, Su Xingchang, the King of Zhao, had gone. If they didn't go, they would definitely be beaten by Su Xingchang. After all, they were working under Su Xingchang.
In this way, Su Xingchang led a group of officials to the door of the Zongren Mansion. As soon as they passed by, Su Xingchang and others saw Su Cheng sitting at the door and a large group of common people outside the door.
"Isn't this Marquis Wu'an? I was a little busy just now. I didn't expect the people below to neglect Marquis Wu'an. Come on, come on, please come in quickly!"
Su Xingchang didn't waste any words, came directly to Su Cheng and smiled.
There are so many people here, and although Su Xingchang seems to be trying to please Su Cheng, the most important thing now is to resolve these matters, and the issue of face is secondary.
Su Cheng looked at the old man in front of him with a sneer on his face and dressed in royal robes, and couldn't help but frown: "I wonder who this lord is..."
An official at the back quickly introduced: "This is the order of our clan, Prince Zhao!"
In fact, Su Cheng already knew this person's identity, but he just didn't want to let him go so easily.
"So you are King Zhao. I am polite. By the way, the man just said that you were busy and asked me to wait here." Su Cheng pointed at the captain and said.
Su Xingchang's expression changed slightly. Unexpectedly, Su Cheng still didn't want to let this matter go.
I have come out to invite you, but you are still messing around here!
When I find the opportunity, I will make sure you look good!
Su Xingchang hated Su Cheng, but he couldn't kill Su Cheng, so he could only sneer: "This... it's my lack of discipline that caused the people below to neglect Marquis Wu'an!"
"Come here, pull this person down and take responsibility for the twenty-big board!"
"Marquis Wu'an, I wonder if you are satisfied with this?"
Su Cheng must be given an explanation for today's matter, otherwise this matter will be finished forever. Only Su Cheng agrees can this matter be ended.
But when the captain heard this, his expression changed drastically.
Twenty big boards, I have indeed become the scapegoat.
Su Cheng didn't go too far. When he saw Su Xingchang making concessions, he slowly stood up, put his hands behind his back and smiled calmly: "It's up to you, King Zhao, to punish me. I'm here today just to leave a mark on the treasure book."
Put the seal."
Su Xingchang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "I understand, I will leave it to you, Marquis Wu'an. Come and invite me inside!"
Under the leadership of Su Xingchang, Su Cheng entered the sect's mansion for the first time, and the captain's screams could be heard outside. It seemed that the board had started to hit.
In order to calm down Su Cheng, Su Xingchang also took great pains to execute him in front of Su Cheng!
After entering the clan's mansion, Su Xingchang did not dare to make any small moves and immediately asked someone to take out the treasure book. Su Cheng only stamped his seal after making sure it was correct.
After doing this, Su Chengcai left with the people.
Su Xingchang looked at Su Cheng's leaving figure, his eyes flashed with a cold light.
He has lost a lot of face today. If he doesn't get it back, how will he be able to survive in Kyoto in the future?
