Under the eyes of the crowd, when Chu Yunge said that she would support Gong Yue's abdication, it actually made everyone feel at ease.
For those who had roamed the martial arts world for more than twenty years, there was a high possibility that they would be able to obtain the position of Alliance Master. They had coveted it for a long time, but they could not do anything about Gong Yue's identity as the City Lord of the Kang City, his family background was huge, and his background was deep.
Even if it was just a moment ago, Gong Yue had already taken the initiative to abdicate his position and give in. No one dared to reveal anything, and only observed silently, afraid that Gong Yue would say something to test the waters, and if they were to say something wrong, if they offended Gong Yue in the future, they would not be able to stay in the underworld anymore.
And now, since this little girl had taken the initiative to say these words and was going to be the first to take the lead, the remaining people were naturally happy to see it happen.
As long as there was support, the only thing left was to push the boat with the current.
Everyone in the hall heaved a long sigh of relief. They all had different expressions.
"May I know the identity of this lady?" the first old man who had objected asked.
"Great Chu's Imperial Protector Princess — — Chu Yunge!" Chu Yunge raised her head and said her name loudly.
"Oh — this is the Great Chu's Imperial Protector Princess! "I heard that this princess is very unreliable …" After Chu Yunge said her name, everyone started to whisper to each other.
"That's right, that's right, I heard about it too. And I even heard that she once sold this Young City Lord from Kang City to the Cowherd's Hall!"
"I heard that too. It's said that she's a witch who does all sorts of evil deeds!"
"…"
Feng Yi listened at the side and almost laughed out loud. Suddenly, he saw Chu Yunge's fierce gaze towards him, and immediately wiped her face, pretending to be in pain.
Chu Yunge never thought that she was already so famous in the Jianghu, and that they were both evil names, she had already depicted her as an evil woman!
Was she that horrible?
She was clearly very cute.
As for Feng Yi who was seated on the other side of the hall, when he heard the bustling noise, Qingrou's long brows slightly knitted, and then stood up from the chair. He cleared his throat and said in a clear voice: "Everyone, please listen to what I have to say!"
The noisy hall immediately quietened down, and everyone's gazes all fell on Feng Yi.
Compared to Chu Yunge, Feng Yi's reputation was much more resounding. A grand Moon Pavilion Master, and even the prince of Feng Lai Kingdom himself. With the rivers and mountains in his grasp and at such a young age, he was actually born with a noble status, and his status was incomparably illustrious.
Many female warriors from various sects looked at Feng Yi with their eyes shining with countless little stars.
"Actually, everyone has already misunderstood the Imperial Protector Princess. Everyone might have heard of the Worryfree Hall organization, the last time when Great Chu was almost annihilated by the Worryfree Hall, the Great Chu Emperor and Empress, as well as all the princes and princes were in trouble. If it wasn't for the Imperial Protector Princess turning the tide, I'm afraid that the current Great Chu's throne would have long changed hands, and even my Feng Lai was affected greatly." After Feng Yi finished speaking, her phoenix eyes quietly turned. His gentle gaze fixated on Chu Yunge's face, and her eyes were filled with tenderness.
"Although this Imperial Protector Princess is a little mischievous at times, she has a kind heart and is constantly running around for the common people. She is a hundred times stronger than those false and righteous Worryfree Hall followers! So, I hope everyone can have a correct understanding of Imperial Protector Princess. " Looking at Chu Yunge's handsome face, Feng Yi continued to explain.
Everyone looked at Chu Yunge with half believing and half doubting expressions. Then, a few martial artists who recognized Worryfree Hall cast their gazes at the Worryfree Hall Ling Yuan at the very end of the seating area.
The Ling Yuan felt as though he was sitting on pins and needles. Feng Yi, oh Feng Yi, I don't care if you embrace your own woman, but do you have to draw fire on us?
But if he did not respond at this moment, he was afraid that he would lose face for his Worryfree Hall.
Ling Yuan looked at Hei Yan who was happily eating a peach, and could only stand up and say: "Your words are wrong, Your Highness. Just like the three kingdoms, didn't you start out as a bunch of random bandits? A good piece of Murong Dynasty has been divided among your three families, yet you are actually criticizing my Worryfree Hall here, doesn't that make you laugh at every move you take? "
Seeing that everyone's gaze was attracted to him, the Ling Yuan braced himself and continued to speak: "My main purpose is to unite the three nations and build an immovable river and mountain. This is to comply with the immutable truth of the world's situation. Only when the world was united could the people live and work in peace, no longer suffering from the hardships of exodus. What's wrong with that? "
Feng Yi was just about to refute his words when he heard Gong Yue say: "This year's general assembly is only to elect a new Alliance Master Wu Lin.
Right after Gong Yue finished speaking, a few round of applause sounded.
Feng Yi looked towards the direction of the voice, wishing he could bang his head on the table for a few times.
This time, it was actually Chu Yunge!
"I think City Lord Gong is right! Even though City Lord Palace is highly respected, kind and trustworthy, and is extremely qualified for this position, he has already suggested that his body is unwell, so we should not force him! "
Chu Yan tugged on the corner of Chu Yunge's clothes, and used his Spirit Qi to speak: "Little sister, quickly sit down, we are not here to fight for Alliance Head Wu Lin, after we finish our meal and watch the competition, we will obediently return home!"
Chu Yunge had obviously heard Chu Yan's warning to her, but she did not plan to obediently shut her mouth. Instead, he turned her black eyes and glanced at Chu Yan, who was sitting beside him. After drawing a curve of a smile that was not really a smile, she opened his mouth and continued to speak with her sweet voice, "Since City Lord Gong Yue is the one who proposed the discomfort, intending to abdicate the throne, then as a righteous man who loves and supports City Lord Gong, we should truly consider and understand the difficulties of others. So, this princess thinks that there should indeed be a person who, through this year's Martial Lin Assembly's competition, will become the new Alliance Head of the Martial Forest. "
As Chu Yunge said till here, her gaze turned as shshelooked at Gong Yue who was seated in the center of the hall. Her face immediately blossomed into a smile, her clear voice was obviously more respectful, and she continued: "Of course, even if the new Alliance Master Wu Lin is chosen, City Lord Gong is still the rich Lord of Kang City, he is still a grandmaster whom we admire and respect from the bottom of our hearts! People say, don't they. "
"Imperial Protector Princess is indeed a straightforward person. With Princess here, I believe this year's Martial Arts Competition will be much more lively than before." Without waiting for Chu Yunge's words to finish, Gong Yue, who was sitting on his mahogany carved master chair, had already opened his mouth. Although his voice was not loud, it had clearly spread to every corner of the hall.
It also allowed everyone to hear his words clearly.
The meaning behind Gong Yue's words, was that he agreed with Chu Yunge's words. After receiving Gong Yue's nod of approval, the others also completely let their guard down and started talking at once.
"Although the Imperial Protector Princess is young, her words are reasonable." The old man sitting in the front row on the right wiped the white beard on his chin and said in a gratified tone.
The other people around him also followed and said, "That's right." Since Mayor Gong is really old and lacking in energy, it would be inconvenient for you to continue to handle the matters of gangs in the martial arts world. Giving up the throne and allowing the younger generation to become capable is also good. "
"Exactly. Right now, the Palace Mistress was nearing the prime of her life, she had changed to having a good rest in her mansion and was living in luxury. "There are so many gangs in the martial arts world, there are so many trivial matters. Even if Mayor Gong continues to work hard, it will be useless for him."
"That's right. I heard that the Palace Mistress's eldest son has long since grown up, yet he hasn't even taken a wife or concubine yet. The Palace Mistress should put aside these trivial matters and focus on recuperating, reporting back to her grandson."
After Gong Yue expressed his stance, the representatives who were sitting in the hall and who could be said to be of great virtue and prestige all started to speak, in an instant, the hall was almost like a market for vegetables, talking back and forth, it was extremely lively.
Chu Yunge's gaze swept across the faces of the great warriors from the so-called big sects, and a look of disdain flashed past her eyes. If not for her taking the lead, these people would probably have asked Gong Yue to stay, imploring him to continue working as the Martial Arts Alliance Head for a few more years.
What a bunch of hypocritical villains!
"Little sister, you really can't be honest for even a moment." Seeing that Gong Yue did not say anything, and berated Chu Yunge for her mistake, the others also shifted their attention to Gong Yue. Chu Yan, who was relieved, once again used a sound transmission to whisper to Chu Yunge.
"Alright, it's fine for me to sit down and eat, right?" After Chu Yunge heard Chu Yan's warning, she did not go back on her words and sat down on her chair with satisfaction. She withdrew her gaze from those people and stared at the table full of dishes and wine in front of him instead.
The entire hall was filled with people, and there were no less than a hundred of them. Not to mention the maidservants who were standing in the corners and serving in the corridors.
Everyone had a long table in front of them. There were a variety of dishes on the table, ranging from hot dishes to cold dishes to dessert. There were even melon fruits on the table.
Seeing the beautiful dishes on the table, as a foodie, Chu Yunge could not remain calm. She immediately picked up her chopsticks and rubbed her palms together, ready to eat.
Xiao Wei, who was sitting beside her, grabbed her sleeve and whispered into her ear. "Yun Ge, wait a moment. Don't be in such a hurry to eat it. As guests, it is impolite for us to remember to eat. "
"..." "Fine." Seeing the steaming hot stewed fat duck in front of him, Chu Yunge could only put down her chopsticks unwillingly and gulp down her saliva.
Chu Yunge asked the fat duck's fragrance as saliva almost flowed out of the corner of her mouth.
The fat duck that was cooked with ginseng and bird's nest smelled really good. It was a pity that there were too many people present. When Gong Yue spoke to the warriors from the Jianghu Sect, he had to be polite, he really did not know when he would be able to eat.
Just as Chu Yunge's stomach was growling in hunger, Gong Yue, who was seated in the middle of the hall, finally uttered out like a miracle: "It's getting late, let's chat a little, let's all eat!"
