The green tea female partner wins in the novel about cultivating immortals
Chapter 274 Why is the city lord’s wife not here?
After entering the courtyard of the guest room, a row of waitresses were waiting.
The steward of the City Lord's Mansion who brought them here chuckled and said, "These waiters are prepared for all guests. You can choose on your own."
Lu Sangjiu glanced over and could tell that these people were all in the early stages of foundation building.
Although the qualifications seem to be average, mostly built up with pills, for a small city lord's palace, using the foundation period as a maid is still a bit unfair, right?
Or maybe these people say they are maids, but they are actually used to spy on them?
Although it is a little difficult to keep an eye on the Golden Core stage during the foundation building stage, it should be no problem if you keep an eye on him and help him spread the word.
While she was thinking, she heard Xie Ningyuan say, "I'm not used to using maids, so there's no need."
The housekeeper suddenly looked embarrassed, "I didn't force this Immortal Lord, but the City Lord told me to take good care of you all. If we are so negligent, the City Lord will definitely punish us."
"When the time comes, these maids will also be implicated and punished. Please forgive me, Lord Immortal."
The maids immediately looked at Xie Ningyuan pitifully, "Please have mercy on me, Lord Immortal."
Xie Ningyuan glanced at Lu Sangjiu calmly. Lu Sangjiu thought about it and shook his head slightly.
He then pretended to be convinced and softened his attitude, "In that case... then I'll choose one."
Xie Ningyuan refused, but the others didn't say anything about not wanting to be a maid, and just pointed at one of them and settled the matter.
Lu Sangjiu's maid said her name was Xiao Lu, and she was standing guard at the door of the guest room. If you have anything to do, just ask her.
When Lu Sangjiu heard this, he thought, good guy, this is really looking at them, right? Just stand guard at the door. Without some means, it's really hard to get rid of them and act on your own.
But despite this, everyone said nothing and went back to their rooms.
As soon as Lu Sangjiu sat down, the messenger talismans vibrated one after another.
When she took it out, she found that except for Xie Ningyuan and Shen Yuzhao, everyone else had sent her messages, and the contents all expressed the same central idea: there was something wrong with the city lord.
Well... let's just say that this city lord is really not very good at hiding his own power. Five of the six people in the group discovered that there was something wrong with him.
Xie Ningyuan didn't say anything because he knew she had already discovered it.
And Shen Yuzhao is really silly and sweet, and he will never suspect others of bad intentions.
After thinking about it, Lu Sangjiu replied to several people: "We will act according to the circumstances during the dinner."
Then she actually lay down to rest.
After all, sitting in the teleportation array is really tiring.
She was very worried and fell asleep quickly after lying down, until Xiaolu knocked on the door from outside, "Fairy Lu, the dinner party is about to begin. The Lord of the City invites you all to come over."
Lu Sangjiu then opened his eyes in a daze, yawned, and then got up and went out.
When she went out, the other people were already waiting outside.
Seeing her coming out yawning, Yan Zui's expression was a bit hard to explain, "Fellow Daoist Lu... You must have just woken up, right?"
"That's right." Lu Sangjiu nodded matter-of-factly, and then asked, "Aren't you all asleep?"
The rest: "..."
Sorry, they really couldn't sleep in the City Lord's Mansion where something was obviously wrong.
When Lu Sangjiu saw that no one was talking, he immediately said regretfully, "I really haven't slept yet. It's a pity that you didn't feel it. The mattress here is really soft. It's very comfortable to sleep on."
When Luo Linlang heard this, she immediately regretted it, "Really? If I had known that I had fallen asleep just now, to be honest, I felt really uncomfortable after coming out of the teleportation array."
Yan Zui: "..."
No, are you fellow seniors and sisters so out of tune?
In order to prevent the topic from getting further and further, the maid next to her coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, are we about to set off? Don't keep the Lord of the City waiting for too long."
Lu Sangjiu seemed to have come back to his senses now, "Oh, you're right, but don't keep the city lord waiting for too long. Let's go quickly! Senior sister, it's the same thing if you come back at night and sleep again."
A group of people walked and chatted, and soon arrived at the banquet room.
And along the way, Yan Zui finally vaguely understood that Lu Sangjiu was working hard to create an image of himself as a brainless novice.
Want them to let their guard down?
After realizing this, Yan Zui also deliberately cooperated.
So several maids followed all the way, and they couldn't help but have the impression of Lu Sangjiu as a "idiot beauty".
"A few distinguished guests have finally arrived, please take a seat quickly!"
Several people sat down, and Yan Zui looked at the city lord sitting alone in the master's seat, and couldn't help but asked strangely, "Why don't you see the city lord's wife?"
The city lord's smile faltered slightly, and then he said, "Oh, it's really unfortunate. My wife has been feeling unwell recently, and I don't know if she contracted some strange disease. It's really inconvenient to see guests. I'm sorry."
Yan Zui nodded, "So that's it... Mrs. Ling and my mother are of the same race, so we can be considered related. I wanted to pay a visit this time when I came here."
The city lord was stunned, "Is that so? Xi'er has never told me about this matter."
A look of confusion suddenly appeared on Yan Zui's face, "Xie'er? But my mother said that the city lord's wife is named Ji Heng, and there doesn't seem to be the word "Xi" in her name. Could it be that my mother remembered it wrong?"
The city lord suddenly showed a fake smile, "No, no, actually Xi'er is the nickname I gave my wife, and her real name is indeed Ji Heng."
Yan Zui nodded in understanding, "So that's it."
"Lord City Lord, it stands to reason that we should not disturb Madam Ling when she is unwell, but since I am related to Madam Ling, I should still go over and visit her."
"It may be inconvenient for my friends, but it shouldn't be a problem for me to go alone, right?"
Yan Zui said that it would be unkind if the city lord refused again.
So after a slight hesitation, he nodded and said, "Okay, but it's too late today. Let the maid take you there tomorrow morning."
"Alright."
Lu Sangjiu listened silently, thinking that he had done the right thing by bringing Yan Zui here, otherwise they would not have been able to enter the city lord's palace, and they would not have discovered anything strange here, and they would have to make many more detours.
And Yan Zui is really smart. Although I don't know if she and the city lord's wife are really related, the city lord must be suspicious, so the Xi'er mentioned is clearly a quiet test.
Fortunately, Yan Zui seemed to have been prepared, and after just a few words, the city lord had to agree to her meeting the city lord's wife.
She felt that Yan Zui's idea was correct. With this weird city lord's mansion and the slightly unnatural look on his face when the city lord mentioned his wife, she should go and meet the city lord's wife.
Although Yan Zui can only go there alone now, she is smart enough and has good strength, so there should be no problem on her own.
