Chapter 129 Xia Aofeng's Choice
Chapter 129 Xia Aofeng's Choice
After Eunuch Liu left, the Zhang family cheered.
"Wow! The young patriarch is so awesome!"
"Who said it wasn't? He was actually directly made an earl by the king!"
"I've made up my mind. From now on, even if the Young Clan Leader asks me to eat shit, I won't even frown!"
A member of the tribe stood up, raised his head, and looked into the distance with a determined gaze.
"I'm talking about obligation. Why do you still have this habit? Get away from me."
The tribesmen beside him clapped their hands in disgust.
"Hahaha..." The people around burst into laughter.
"Alright, everyone, go ahead. Remember, don't be complacent, and don't bully outsiders. Be modest and cautious, and remember your original intention. When the Great Elder, Tian'er, and the others return triumphantly, we'll celebrate! Remember!"
Zhang Zongyu looked at everyone with a serious face and spoke loudly. His voice echoed in the ears of every tribesman, making everyone feel his majesty and determination.
After saying this, Zhang Zongyu's eyes became even sharper, as if he could see through everyone's thoughts.
He knew what this meant to his family. An ordinary fourth-grade family could not be compared with a fourth-grade earl family.
This will definitely make the tribe members feel proud and may even lead to a change in their character.
He glanced at the people present and emphasized again:
"Remember what I said. We must remain humble and vigilant. We must not become complacent because of a temporary victory. The honor of our family must not be trampled upon!"
"Therefore, you must always remember your identity and responsibilities, and do not do anything that will damage the family's image."
Zhang Zongyu's tone became increasingly stern, causing the people present to feel awe.
Finally, Zhang Zongyu looked at everyone deeply, and then led all the family leaders into the family hall.
They need to plan the future development of their family carefully.
After they left, the scene fell into silence, but there was a determination glimmer in everyone's eyes.
People began to disperse one after another, their hearts filled with anticipation and confidence for the future.
Tianshui City!
"Feng'er, have you received the news from the Zhang family?"
In the spacious and bright hall, Xia Qiqiang sat in the main seat, his eyes fell on the young man sitting next to him drinking, and he asked.
"How could I not know about such a big thing!"
The young man put down his glass and replied calmly.
"I never thought Brother Chentian would be so outstanding. I'm far inferior to him!"
Xia Aofeng sighed softly, a look of emotion on his face.
"Tianshui City and the six southwestern cities are all fiefs of Earl Lingbing, and we city lords will soon be transferred back to the court for reassignment."
Xia Qiqiang said slowly, a thoughtful look on his face.
"I'm not saying anything, Father, but if you wanted, then Uncle would at least make you an earl. It's your fault for not wanting to!"
Xia Aofeng frowned and said with some confusion.
"Feng'er, your father certainly has his own reasons for doing this."
At this time, next to Xia Qiqiang was standing a beautiful woman in gorgeous robes.
She looked at Xia Aofeng with a loving face and spoke softly.
Hearing this, Xia Aofeng was slightly startled, then responded with a smile:
"I know, mother, I didn't say anything."
Then, Xia Qiqiang turned to look at Xia Aofeng, a hint of expectation flashed in his eyes, and he asked softly:
"So what are your plans for the future? Do you want to go back to the royal city with us?"
However, Xia Aofeng shook his head without hesitation, with an expression of reluctance on his face, and replied:
"I'm not going back to the royal city! After I return to the royal city, my cousin the Crown Prince will definitely assign me many things to do. Look at my elder brother, he's exhausted from all the torment he's causing me. He's basically treating me like a cow."
After saying that, he waved his hand helplessly to express his refusal.
"Humph! I think you want to be beaten!"
Xia Qiqiang snorted coldly and stared at Xia Aofeng.
"Dad, how did I make you angry?"
Xia Aofeng asked innocently.
"Then wherever you go, you should have something to do, otherwise where will you get the spirit stones in the future? You don't have any side jobs, and you can't let your father support you all the time."
Xia Qiqiang frowned and spoke in a serious tone.
"Me? Of course I'll stay and hang out with Brother Chen Tian. I feel like I have a better future with him than in the Royal City."
Xia Aofeng answered confidently.
Hearing his son say this, Xia Qiqiang couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
He knew that Zhang Chentian was a young man with great potential, but he was also worried that his son would be hurt.
However, seeing his son's firm attitude, he decided to support his choice.
"Okay, since you've made up your mind, go ahead. But remember, if you encounter any difficulties, tell me."
Xia Qiqiang patted his son's shoulder and said encouragingly.
At the same time, this situation not only happened in Tianshui City, but the other six cities were also discussing this matter. What they were worried about was whether their own interests would be affected.
In short, the matter about Zhang Chentian caused quite a stir in the western region of the Linyue Dynasty.
As for other places, there is not much impact, but this is just the beginning.
……
Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.
Zhang Chentian and his team have been traveling on the Hui road for a whole month.
They finally arrived at Qingfeng City and decided to stay there for a day to rest.
The Zhang family walked straight towards the inner city, attracting countless people's attention and admiration along the way.
There was nothing that could be done about it. After all, they were riding fifty tall and mighty black-scaled horses, and had just returned from the battlefield on the border. They exuded a strong aura of blood and murder, which could not be concealed no matter what.
"Great Elder, there is a Qingfeng Inn ahead. I have already booked a room there. We can rest there."
Zhang Chenhu, who had entered the city in advance to explore the way, reported to everyone.
Hearing this, Zhang Chongpeng nodded in agreement:
"Okay, let's take a good rest there!"
So, the group headed towards Qingfeng Inn.
After entering the inn, everyone did not go back to their rooms to rest, but chose to find a place to sit on the first floor and prepare to taste the food here.
Of course, they also hope to take this opportunity to learn about the latest developments in the past two years.
After all, the inn has guests from all over the world, and its sources of information are extensive and well-informed.
"Hey, a big thing happened recently, have you heard about it?"
Suddenly, a thin middle-aged man jumped up from his seat, stood firmly on the table, and shouted loudly.
His face was obviously a little drunk, but his eyes revealed excitement.
After hearing these words, the atmosphere on the first floor of the inn seemed to become quieter in an instant.
The originally noisy guests stopped what they were doing and looked at the middle-aged man standing at the table.
"Hey bro, why don't you tell me what happened? Stopping mid-sentence is just keeping people on suspense. What do you think?"
A burly man said loudly.
"That's right! That's right! Just tell me what you want to say!"
