Chapter 93 Chapter 7: The Ugly Game of Seizing Power

Sangyang Suyin, Yiyangjiu and others followed the Yangcheng group into the city gate, and seeing the iron-gray gate, Sang Yang Suyin couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion. While whispering a few words to Yi Yangjiu and Yi Ya, he quietly watched the scenery of Yangcheng. Back then, he walked out of Yangcheng through this gate and never came back. Moreover, at that time, he secretly made an oath in his heart, vowing never to return to this place that made him sad all his life. However, now he is back. The flowers outside Yangcheng bloom every year, and the tide ebbs and flows. It is still the scene when he left many years ago.

The flowers and trees are still there, but the human affairs are completely different. Sangyang Suyin took a deep breath, and then walked into the Yangcheng hall alone. But Yiyangjiu and others were inconvenient to go in with him, so they waited outside the hall. After sitting down in the "Hao Han Pavilion" in the hall of Yangcheng, the servants on the left and right served hot tea, and Sang Yang said in a stern voice, "Drink tea." Sangyang Yinyin nonchalantly picked up the tea and drank it down. Seeing him drink the tea, Sangyang Riyan couldn't help stroking his beard and smiling.

Then, he slapped the coffee table hard, making the cups jingle. "Tell me, what is your plan when you return to Yangcheng this time?" Sangyang Suyin smiled faintly and wiped his lips. "Originally, I had no intention of coming back. I just thought that Lu Guo would come to help my little friends find something," he said slowly, "Later, I learned the news of Ziyu's death, and I just wanted to come back to pay homage to Yu Yu." Him, this is my 'conspiracy'." Sangyang Riyan sneered and said, "Don't tell me you don't have the slightest ambition to seize the city lord position?"

"Uncle Riyan," Sangyang Suyin said displeased, "Are you deaf because of old age, or did you not hear what I said at all? I said I am not interested in the position of city lord, so I am not interested! De Whether it's proper or not, it's none of my business!" As he spoke, he turned to the white and fat boy Sangyang Dewen and said loudly: "Dewen! From now on, you will take over the important role of the city lord of Yangcheng. But your grandfather has to take care of everything, why don't you say a few words?" The young man Sangyang Dewen was obviously very timid. Hearing Sangyang Suyin's stern voice, he panicked early, his face changed, and he hesitated and couldn't speak.

The red-faced fat man Sikong Hou Yang on the side giggled, and hurriedly said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's just that our German brother..." "Shut up!" Sang Yang said loudly with his tongue full of spring thunder: "This is my Yangcheng's housework, so how can you make more noise?" Sang Yang Riyan opened his eyes and said angrily: "You just shut up! You are a traitor in Yangcheng, and you have no right to speak. Mr. Situ is a distinguished guest invited by Dewen to help deal with the affairs of Yangcheng. How dare you be so presumptuous?" ?”

"For hundreds of years, outsiders have never been asked to intervene in the affairs of Yangcheng!" Sangyang Yinyin feigned anger and said loudly: "You do this, does Uncle Lone Star know?" Sangyang Riyan was slightly taken aback, and reluctantly said: "This...it's none of your business!" Sangyang Suyin looked around the crowd coldly, and said in a deep voice: "There are so many uncles in our Yangcheng, why are there only three people here today?" He seemed to say casually: "Uncle Jinfeng, Qinglan Uncle, where did the rest of the uncles go, why didn't they see them?"

The other two old men, Sangyang Jinfeng and Sangyang Qinglan, have always followed Sangyang Riyan's instructions. Now that they were asked this question by Sangyang Suyin, they were a little flustered. They looked at each other, unconsciously Sang Yang Ri Yan. "Didn't I tell you?" Sangyang Riyan said impatiently, "They retreated because they wanted to find a way to deal with you, so I asked them to retreat." "yes……" Sangyang Suyin relaxed and walked a few steps in the hall with his hands behind his back. Then, suddenly, he turned around and yelled, staring at Sangyang Dewen fiercely.

"Speak! Dewen!" Sangyang Yinyin yelled ferociously: "Uncle Lone Star and the others were imprisoned by you? Did you decide to lock them up?" After all, Sangyang Dewen was young, so frightened by him, his face turned pale and his lips trembled. "No...not me!" Sangyang Suyin refused to relax at all, and took a step forward, his voice was even more severe. "Uncle Lone Star must not let you bring in outsiders, so you shut them down, right?" Sangyang Dewen was impatient with his round of intensive questioning, his mind went blank, and he stammered: "It's not me, it's really not me, it's grandpa! It's grandpa who locked them up." !"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in Yangcheng, except for the three elders including Sangyang Riyan, was extremely surprised and there was an uproar. Originally, when Sangyang Riyan and the other three announced that the rest of the Yangcheng elders would retreat to discuss countermeasures, they did not arouse any suspicion because of their extremely respected seniority. In addition, although Sangyang Suyin has been away from Yangcheng for a long time, he has been exaggerated over the years as an image of a villain with a bad heart and wolf ambitions. When it is mentioned that "Sang Yang Suyin is going back to Yangcheng", everyone feels the three old people's feelings. The statement is even more convincing.

However, from a few urgent words of Sang Yang Su Yin, it is obvious that the "retreat" of the elders in Yangcheng this time has a lot to say! Sangyang Riyan was furious, and shouted loudly: "Dewen! What nonsense are you talking about?" Sangyang Suyin smiled and said: "Dewen is not talking nonsense, but Uncle Riyan, you are so wrong!" Seeing everyone's surprised eyes, Sangyang Riyan took a step back, the muscles on his face were twisted, showing that he was in a complicated and excited mood. "Am I wrong? What's wrong with me?" He shouted: "Sixty years ago, I should have been the lord of Yangcheng. If everyone was not jealous of my ability, why would your incompetent father do it?" The city lord? And once you do it, you will be a father and son twice!" The old man seemed to recall the old hatred many years ago, and under the agitation of his mood, he was even more unrestrained: "That's right, Brother Lone Star and the others were imprisoned by me, but Did I do this wrong? Back then, I failed to be the lord of Yangcheng, and now my grandson finally has a chance, but you, an unworthy descendant, come back to disrupt the situation. Don’t tell me the generations in our house will be subdued? Is the person under? Obviously it is already a foregone conclusion, but those old fools in Lone Star said that they should take a long-term view, and they also said, "Although the ancestors' precepts are important, the situation is very different now", and they also said, "That silver boy was born in the past. He has also suffered great injustice. If he is called back to preside over the overall situation, it is not a bad idea'... What is wrong with our family's German, why do we have to make such a mess? Why do we still say 'this matter needs more consideration, It is better to seek virtuous people from the children of the outer branch than to act hastily'? Could it be that my family of Sangyang Riyan is so bad, do you have to get rid of us and then hurry up?"

The old man thought it was a backlog of grievances for many years, and once he complained, he would never stop. The fat man Sikong Hou Yang frowned slightly, and shouted at him in a low voice: "Shut up!" As soon as he turned his head, his face changed extremely quickly, and it was filled with a kind smile in an instant. "Brother Su Yin is indeed an extraordinary person, which is admirable. The few of us who came to Yangcheng were indeed working hard for the survival of Yangcheng. It's just that if you want to look at us with a villain's heart, there is nothing we can do. ..." With a smile on his face and a fat, red face, he looked innocent.Just talking, he bent his fingers: "However... as long as you have the ability to reach the sky, I don't think you will bother us again in a short time... Fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve ..." Sangyang Shuyin watched his counting movements, as if remembering something important, his face suddenly changed color. "You...you are in that tea..." Sikong Houyang smiled, showing an innocent look. "What kind of tea? I don't know what you're talking about..." He smiled and said, "It's common for people to eat whole grains and get a temporary illness, which can't be cured in the blink of an eye... ...seven, six, five, four..." Sangyang Suyin was shocked, but his whole body seemed to be withdrawn from his life suddenly, his eyes widened, and he supported the chair with his hands, as if he was about to fall to the ground at any moment. "If there is anything else you are worried about, you should take this time to think about it! Ahhh!" Sikong Hou Yang exaggeratedly slapped his forehead, and made a dazed expression: "I forgot, you have no chance, brother Yin, we So farewell! . . . two, one . . . down!" Sangyang Shuyin's body shook suddenly, and he hung his head limply. Sikong Houyang laughed out loud, and even Sangyang Riyan, Sangyang Jinfeng and others beside him were relieved happily. Amidst the laughter, Sikong Houyang said triumphantly: "Look? Didn't I say that? There are unpredictable things in the sky, and the world's misfortunes and blessings only happen overnight. I think Brother Suyin must have died of a sudden illness after years of hard work." ?” The old man Sangyang Qinglan also joked and said: "It is extremely, I am afraid that the retribution may come, this child has done so many bad things, it is only natural for God to accept him!" A few of them sang together in the hall, and the rest of the people in Yangcheng looked suspicious, seeing such a change, they didn't know how to deal with it for a while. Knowing that Sangyang Suyin died for no reason at this time, there must be something strange about it, but he didn't know what to do. Sikong Hou Yang looked at them coldly, and said casually: "From now on, everything in Yangcheng will be determined by the city lord Sangyang Dewen. Of course we will do our best to help the city lord Dewen, but I don't know if you have any disagreements?" Among the people in Yangcheng, a clear voice suddenly sounded. "What about Uncle Lone Star and the others? Why don't you make a decision after they leave the customs?" Sang Yangjing was the one who spoke, and her expression was serious at the moment, with a look of suspicion on her face: "Are they really locked up by you? " Sikong Hou Yang let out a dry laugh. "Miss, I'm worrying too much. Senior Lone Star and their opinions are naturally important. It's just that the situation is urgent now. Yangcheng cannot be left alone for a day, and the intentions of Senior Lone Star and others are unclear. The accident happened again, so we reluctantly asked them to take a break first, let Brother Dewen take over as soon as possible, and after Brother Dewen succeeds in taking over, we will naturally release them. Do you know how humble Brother Dewen is?" He walked up to Sangyang Dewen and put his arms around his shoulders: "Brother Dewen said to me, 'In fact, in Sangyang's house, my sister Jing is ten times more talented than me. She will create an unprecedented new situation in Yangcheng, and I will definitely regard her as the new city lord!'Look, your ability is even affirmed by Brother Dewen, so as long as you speak, we will definitely regard you as the new lord of Yangcheng! " Sang Yangjing opened her almond eyes and wanted to refute, but Sikong Houyang's words were very powerful, dragging her into the battle group for the position of the city lord for no reason, and resisted her with words first, and at this moment if Sang If Yang Jing had any opinions, she became a person who "intended to get involved in the position of the city lord". Although she is resolute and intelligent, she is too young after all. When it comes to eloquence, how can she be a match for an old fox like Sikong Houyang? Sikong Hou Yang looked at her expression, knew that his words had already overwhelmed her, so he laughed and said: "So, Miss, you have no objection?" Sang Yangjing's face was livid, but she didn't know how to interface. "That's great!" Sikong Hou Yang said with a smile: "Since the eldest lady also recommended Brother Dewen to be the throne, so be it! I'll count to three here, and if no one has any objections by then, we've made a deal." , brother Dewen will be the city lord, how about that?" Without waiting for anyone to answer, he shouted first: "One!" "two!" The whole hall was silent, Sikong Hou Yang smiled slightly, and was about to speak, but a voice resounded faintly in the hall. "Three! Four five six seven!" As soon as the voice came out, Sangyang Riyan and the others were all shocked. In the panic-stricken eyes of everyone, the "corpse" of Sangyang Shuyin, who had lowered his head and stopped moving, now laughed "hehehe". The drooping head was raised slowly, only to see that Sangyang Yinyin's eyes were bright and full of energy, but there was no look of death? What's more subtle is that everyone in Yangcheng was unconsciously delighted to see him "resurrected from the dead". Even Sang Yangjing, who has always been the most hostile to him, has mixed feelings at this moment. Hearing his hearty laughter, for some reason, there is a subtle warm feeling in her heart. Sangyang Riyan turned pale with fright, and couldn't help taking a step back, but the fat boy Sangyang Dewen had already hid behind him. In this panic, the two of them were entangled, and almost fell to the ground with their feet limp. Although the fat man Sikong Hou Yang was cunning, he was shocked when he saw Sangyang Suyin "alive" at the first sight, and he lost his voice: "You...you already..." Sangyang Yinyin smiled slightly. "You have already poisoned me to death, haven't you?" He crossed his hands, with a leisurely look on his face: "Your throat-sealing poison is indeed the most poisonous thing in the world. Ordinary people will die if they eat it." "Then why didn't you die after drinking the tea? I clearly watched you drink it," Sikong Hou Yang wondered, "This poison doesn't even have an antidote, so how can you be safe after drinking it?" "Before I drank your throat-clogging poisonous tea, I knew that you would play tricks in the tea, but these little friends around me are all geniuses and supernatural beings, so I will do my best," he clapped his hands , a chubby figure of Yi Ya appeared at the side door behind him. A person with the ability of the primordial spirit can still see his yellow primordial spirit "Pao Ren". "The primordial spirit of the 'Pao Ren' lies in the ability to transform all things in the world into various forms of food, so when drinking tea, I let the 'Pao Ren' hide behind me and drink the tea I drank. The liquid turns into a hard substance and hides in the abdomen." Sangyang Shuyin clenched his fists and punched hard in his abdomen. The blow was so clever that the muscles in his abdomen were stimulated. With a sound of "uh", he vomited out a hard object the color of tea liquid. After the hard object hit the ground, it returned to liquid tea with a "wow", and white smoke came out. After the white smoke passed, a trace was seen on the ground, which showed the strong toxicity of tea. "That's it," Sangyang Yin said with a smile, "I'm back from 'death'!" Sangyang Riyan said loudly: "So what? Now my grandson Dewen will still take over the position of city lord. You were originally expelled from Yangcheng, so what can you do?" Before Sangyang Suyin could speak, he heard the side door on the side of the hall being pulled open with a "bang", and a voice resounded like thunder on the ground among the crowd. "Not so good! I want to see how brave you are to let Devin take over as the city lord!" Hearing this loud and old voice, Sangyang Riyan groaned inwardly, knowing that his plan had come to naught. When Sang Yangjing, Sang Yangqing and the others heard this voice, they were full of joy, and Sang Yangqing couldn't help but yelled out loudly. "Uncle Lone Star!"
