When I came out of Donghua Pavilion, the Chaowen Bell hanging in the Star Observation Tower was ringing slowly.
This shocked Jiang Wang's somewhat dazed thoughts.
He was really dizzy from reciting the book and reciting it with trembling fear.
Although it is true that I have worked hard in normal times, if I failed to memorize this one well, it would be the crime of deceiving the emperor! The pressure is too great.
He definitely didn't expect that Emperor Qi summoned him to Donghua Pavilion and spent a whole hour just to check the status of his endorsement!
At this critical moment when the army is about to conquer the summer.
All civil and military officials in the dynasty were waiting for his will.
This Emperor of Qi... is he a little too idle!?
But this kind of boredom of not doing serious business before the war, this kind of idleness of teasing the young Viscount before the court meeting.
It really makes people feel a kind of calmness and confidence.
The calmness of looking at the world.
The confidence to grasp the universe!
Who is the Xia Kingdom? What is the difficulty in this game of chess in the world?
He Jiang Shu just chatted casually, called the young man in front of him, recited the words honestly, and made random moves... and the chess fell down the mountain!
Accompanied by Bingbi eunuch Qiu Ji, Jiang Wang walked out of the palace and felt calm in his heart.
"Master Jiang, our family will no longer send you gifts."
"My father-in-law, please stay. I won't get lost in Linzi."
Only then did Church smile.
But he still didn't say anything else and returned to the palace.
Before Jiang Wang had time to think about whether Qiu Ji had anything unsaid, he saw the curtain of a large sedan in front of him was lifted.
Zhong Xuansheng waved to him: "Come in!"
"What happened?" Jiang Wang asked as he sat in the sedan.
The sedan chair has already risen, and the bearer is walking as fast as flying.
Chong Xuan Sheng was still squeezing with Shi Shi, and just waved his hand: "First tell me what happened to you! What does the emperor want from you?"
"Ask me to memorize the book." Jiang Wang said matter-of-factly.
Chong Xuan Sheng was stunned for a moment. He probably didn't expect Qi Emperor to be so boring at first, but he immediately said: "It seems that today's meeting will decide on the candidate for the coach of Faxia!"
Jiang Wang couldn't figure out how he connected the two things.
But he has long been used to it.
Just believe in Chong Xuan Sheng's conclusion, the analysis process is not very important.
So he shrugged his shoulders: "So where are we going now?"
"Nanyao." Chong Xuansheng was probably still thinking about the political situation, a little carelessly: "It's time to catch up after falling behind for a long time."
Chiyang County, Nanyaocheng, Lian family.
The greatest family of armorers in the Qi Dynasty.
One of the five holy places recognized by the world's armorers.
Of course, this so-called "holy place" is just a bluff, and it is far from comparable to holy places such as Xuankong Temple and Yujing Mountain.
Just like the famous weapons in the world, they are all attached to people and held in their hands. It is never said that a person is powerful because of which weapon. Only weapons become famous because of the strong person.
Weaponsmiths are also mostly attached to powerful forces and do not have much sense of existence themselves.
And through the relationship between Jiang Wang and Lian Que, Chong Xuansheng has been secretly planning the Lian family in Nanyao for a long time.
In such a crucial war as Faxia, and in the final moment of competition with Zhongxuan Zun, he must gather all his strength.
Of course Jiang Wang can understand.
So he closed his eyes and began to practice: "Just call me when you get there."
"It's too late." Chongxuan Sheng suddenly shouted: "Stop the sedan!"
The sedan stopped, and he pushed Jiang Wang: "We have to finish this matter before the results of the meeting reach Nanyao City. We can't wait to get on the sedan."
The soldiers of Da Qi are in Chiyang, and the soldiers of Chiyang are in Nanyao.
There is no doubt about the importance of the Lian family, and the production of armor in Nanyao City is of course firmly in the hands of Qi Ting.
But it is also an army going on an expedition. There are so many teams. Who should give the best batch of soldiers and armor? Who can be dressed first, and who can be replenished the fastest?
Under the great orders of the imperial court, the Lian family also had relative freedom.
This power is very important!
That's why the fourteenth prince Jiang Wuyong wanted to get involved.
When the court meeting is over and the leader of the expedition to Xia is chosen, the war will begin immediately. Among the people participating in the war, there will definitely be many who seek out the Lian family.
So Chong Xuan Sheng said, be quick.
So on the streets of Linzi, the three of them stood up and flew directly to Chiyang County.
Jiang Wang's Fourth Grade Green Brand and Chong Xuan Sheng's family background have a very clear effect at this time - almost no one will make a fuss about it.
Those who can yell at them are probably still participating in court meetings in the Ziji Palace!
The three people flew straight through the mountains and ridges, crossing counties and cities without any hindrance. Within a few hours, they had arrived at Nanyao City.
Chongxuansheng's purpose was very clear, and he landed directly in front of the Lian clan's ancestral hall.
They flew all the way from Linzi to Nanyao City and then went straight to the Lian Ancestral Hall with such arrogance. The people of the Lian family would not be ignorant.
The head of the Lian family, Lian Zhuping, hurried over with several family elders. His expression was unnatural, but he still managed to smile: "Young Master Chongxuan! Lord Jiang! Why are you here today?"
"This is not the place to talk." He extended his hand and said, "I'm hosting a banquet in a restaurant, and I'd like to invite you two to honor me."
Today's Lian Zhuping is very different from the past!
How arrogant you are before, how respectful you are later.
Jiang Wang didn't speak.
But Zhong Xuansheng said in a low voice: "I don't think it's necessary. Some things should be said in the restaurant, and some things can only be said here!"
Lian Zhuping's face darkened: "What do you mean, Mr. Chongxuan?"
No matter what you say, he is still the head of the clan and the head of a very prestigious family.
No matter how noble Chong Xuan Sheng's status is, he is still so young and has not yet received the title...
He had already forced a smile on his face and didn't care about the other party's unscrupulous attitude. Why was he still so aggressive that he went to the house to reveal the tiles?
Chong Xuansheng was too lazy to pay attention to him. He only looked left and right and said loudly: "Where is Lian Que?"
Within a few words, many Lian clan members had gathered in front of the Lian clan's ancestral hall.
Lian Que's firm figure came from a distance. Without saying a word, the crowd automatically parted a path for him.
After forging the world-famous Sauvignon Blanc and operating it for several years with the help of Chong Xuan Sheng, his prestige within the Lian family has long since changed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The road where the crowds separated silently is where his honor lies!
Lian Zhuping stared at him fiercely, his eyes were like the old king who smelled the new king's breath among the wolves: "Lian Que, what do you mean? Today, you collude with outsiders and stir up trouble, just to belittle my Lian family ancestral hall."
yeah?!"
People don't want to look at Lian Que's face because it is indeed not very beautiful. But at this moment, people have to look at him.
He nodded to Jiang Wang first, then looked at Zhong Xuansheng: "Has the time come?"
Chong Xuan Sheng smiled: "If we still need the so-called 'opportunity' now, then your efforts over the past few years can be said to be in vain! You might as well go to Qingyang Town to forge iron, and I might as well go there to sell steamed buns!"
Lian Que then laughed, and of course the smile was not pretty: "I understand the truth, but why are you selling steamed buns?"
Zhong Xuansheng grinned and said, "Some people like to eat it!"
Lian Que looked at Fourteen...
Then he looked at Jiang Wang to comfort himself.
Then he looked back at Lian Zhuping and said calmly: "The position of head of the Lian family belongs to me from today on."
His tone was not passionate, because he was not declaring war or attacking anyone. He was just announcing a fact.
Sometimes he felt dazed. He once thought he was in a difficult situation like a natural chasm, he once determined to change his life, he once thought he had to give everything and fight for his whole life. He did have the consciousness of burning himself in iron -
But in just a few years, it was already within reach.
After all, the young man who came all the way to Qi has grown into the number one genius of the younger generation in Qi.
After all, the disciple of the Zhongxuan clan who was not respected by many people back then could already compete with Zhongxuan Zun, who "took away all the glory of his peers".
After all, I have not wasted a day in the past few years.
Therefore, the original promise made at Jiulong should indeed be fulfilled today.
Lian Zhuping was shocked and angry: "Absurd!"
He was angry at Lian Que's attitude, and even more frightened by Lian Que's attitude.
He pointed at Lian Que and cursed loudly: "You idiot, do you think that by climbing up the high branches of the Chongxuan family and relying on the reputation of Bowang Hou, you can cover the sky with one hand, and even control the position of the head of the Lian family?"
"You are really bad and stupid! Will Chiyang County allow it? Will the court just watch?"
In his angry roar to cover up his guilty conscience, he did not forget to strip away the influence of the Chongxuan family and build confidence in those who supported him.
But Lian Que had a strange expression: "What does it have to do with the Chongxuan family? Why does Chiyang County not allow it?"
His calm tone was in sharp contrast to Lian Zhuping's excitement: "This is our own decision, Lian family."
Lian Zhuping certainly had a certain premonition at this time.
But he refused to believe it.
He has been the head of the family for so many years, has been running the business for so long, and has done so many things for the family... How old is Lian Que?! How many years has he been famous?
"Mr. Lian?" He sneered. Although it was inevitable that he was a little lacking in confidence, he still tried his best to maintain his remaining power: "Mr. Lian, when will you be able to make the decision?"
Lian Que didn't speak.
At this time, more than half of the people surrounding the Lian Ancestral Hall raised their heads almost at the same time and looked at Lian Zhuping!
The gaze gained real weight at this moment.
Why does Lianque need to speak?
In the past few years, the Lian family has received the support of the Chongxuan family through Lian Que's relationship. They have been in the military like a fish in water. They can get the best conditions for every military order. In the past, there were troubles such as getting stuck here and there.
, whenever Lianque shows up, everything disappears into thin air.
There are several hundred members of the entire Lian family, as well as how many people in the arms-smithing industry surrounding the Lian family, who would not benefit from this?
What is the human heart? The human heart is here!
Moreover, although Lian Que is not smooth enough and his wrists cannot be called round, he is definitely a fair person.
He will never let those who follow him suffer, and he will never ignore anyone's interests. This alone is already better than Lian Zhuping!
Lian Zhuping may have been considered an excellent family head once. After all, even though the Lian family had not made famous artifacts for a long time and did not rely on force, he still maintained the Lian family's business. There is no credit, but hard work.
But he is old!
He is over sixty years old, but he has not yet achieved the Divine Presence. He only relies on the elixir to prevent his cultivation from declining.
At this age, he has not yet achieved the arrival of God, but he has not given up yet!
He keeps asking for things from his family, keeps occupying all kinds of resources, and hopes for the day when the God of Achievement will come, and he hopes that he can stay young forever and break the limit of his life span.
Why do you want to get closer to the Fourteenth Prince Jiang Wuyong? Why do you do something that is on the edge of danger?
It's all due to his unwillingness and greed. He wants things that can no longer be obtained through normal channels, and he wants more!
Perhaps this is human nature, but the Lian clan is no longer willing to understand. Because they have a better choice!
Among the crowd, the rising star of the Lian family, a young man named Lian Shao, was the first to speak: "The Lian family's affairs are of course decided by our own family. And I, Lian Shao, fully support Lian Que in taking charge of the family. I believe
He, just like me, believes that the Lian family has a longer future! I follow him precisely because I still have hope for this family!"
Jiang Wang saved him once in the secret realm of Seven Star Tower, but later he completely sided with Lian Que.
At this moment, under his leadership, one after another young people from the Lian family came forward to express their stance.
"I believe in Lian Que!"
"If Lian Que doesn't become the head of the family, the Lian family will have no future!"
…
Like a spark spreading, it has become a prairie fire.
"Lian Shao!" Lian Zhuping was furious and said angrily: "Don't forget where your life card is!"
But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized that he was blinded by anger and fear and said stupid things.
Some facts can exist, and indeed exist for a long time, but they should not be spoken out.
Before they had time to think about why they acted so foolishly, the Lian clan members present, including those who remained neutral at the beginning, all took a step forward.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The black heads are surging behind Lian Que like a tide!
The life card system is the root of the rigidity of the Lian family, and it is also the old and bad habit of a few high-level officials exploiting the majority of the people.
Just because many people don't dare to say it doesn't mean they won't hate it.
Life and death are in the hands of others. When fighting for self-rights, we are often threatened by threats like today... Who can not hate it?
Lian Zhuping offended the public!
Jiang Wang removed the Dou Seal that concealed the fluctuations, and also quietly dispersed the Taoist Wrath Seal.
Chong Xuan Sheng still smiled and said nothing, as if he was staying aloof from the incident.
Lian Zhuping desperately wanted to say something to save him.
At this time, behind Lian Zhuping, a family elder said: "Actually, I also think... letting Lian Que be the head of the family may indeed be a better choice."
This person is none other than Lian Luyue!
At the beginning, Jiang Wuyong was actively fighting for Sauvignon Blanc.
Today, he said with a serious face: "Brother Zhuping, we are all old, our ideas can't keep up, and our bodies are not as good as before... It's time to hand over the burden to the young people."
Lian Zhuping's biggest trump card at this time was the life card system that had maintained the Lian family's stability for many years.
But one of the most terrible things is that the fate cards of the Lian clan are in the hands of many family elders.
Lian Zhuping turned back to look at Lian Luyue, his eyes were filled with panic!
At the most critical moment, the person he trusted most stabbed him in the vital part.
Then another family veteran said: "I also think that Lian Que is very suitable to take charge of the family. In recent years, the only famous weapon of our Lian family is made by Lian Que. Needless to say, his accomplishments in forging weapons are needless to say.
He has already surpassed us old men and is fully capable of inheriting the legacy of our ancestors. Moreover, he is still so young and his future is limitless! Of course, our family should be left in the hands of people with a better future. This is a choice that is closely related to each of us!
"
Lian Zhuping couldn't hear the rest of the words clearly.
One after another, elders came forward to express their opinions.
He just felt that everything was in chaos and his ears were buzzing.
He originally wanted to give Lian Que a slap in the face, just like when he forced Lian Que to let go of Sauvignon Blanc.
But as soon as he moved his fingers, a ray of murderous intent was fixed on his eyebrows.
He woke up in an instant and fully realized what kind of situation he was in.
The power is not as good as others, the virtue is not as good as others, the strength is not as good as others, and the intelligence is not as good as others!
There are still family elders who support him, and not all those who are loyal to him have deserted him.
But he said nothing.
He turned around and walked into the ancestral hall alone.
The door of the ancestral hall slowly closed.
There was fire in his eyes. It seemed like a furnace fire, like the burning heat he had chased when he was young.
Across a door, the voice of Lian Que could be heard faintly from behind -
"From today onwards, Mr. Lian will abolish the destiny cards! No one will be shackled from birth, everyone will enjoy the freedom they deserve!"
Then there were cheers.
Thunderous cheers.
From one house, one street, to the whole city.
The cheers seemed to exist just for him.
