The He family opened up a money road that shocked the Holy Dynasty. Jiang Dali either walked by water or rode a fire unicorn through the mountains and across the city. It took only four days to arrive at the Holy Land from Hukou City in Huweizhou.
The He family where the largest Chinese state, Longyun Mansion, is located.
Arriving at Longyun Mansion can be said to be the territory of the He family.
Longyun Mansion, benefiting from the He family's extremely outstanding commercial management influence, is also the richest city in the entire China. Fully 10% of the annual economic and tax revenue of the Holy Dynasty is created by Longyun Mansion, which means that Longyun Mansion is the main source of the Holy Dynasty.
The economic benefits created are almost comparable to the entire continent of Yunmengzhou, which has the worst economy.
When Jiang Dali arrived, the welcome ceremony of the He family was still grand.
A guard of honor beating gongs and drums lined up from the gate of Fucheng to the gate of the He family's residence. Residents of Fucheng lined the streets outside the security line to welcome him. The scene was like a general returning triumphantly from a victorious battle.
The head of the He family, He Jinze, personally waited for the arrival at the gate of the mansion. The three golden flowers of the He family rushed to the city gate to greet him along with the honor guard and the head of Longyun Mansion.
When they saw the figure of Jiang Dali, who was riding on the fire unicorn and wearing gold and armor, like a god descending from the earth, the three sisters of the He family had different expressions.
The eldest daughter of the He family, He Lingxu, is a first-rate beauty in terms of appearance, figure, facial features, and skin. However, she is usually as cold as ice and rarely shows up in public. This time she took the initiative to go out of the city to greet her. Even though she was wearing a mesh veil, she was also a show of beauty.
My heart is pounding.
However, at this moment, this frosty and arrogant beauty looked at the heroic figure riding on the fire unicorn, as if her eyes were getting hot, her heart was getting hot, her whole body was about to get hot, but then she seemed to think of something, her eyes
Darkened slightly.
He Hongzhi on the side was very curious and admired Jiang Dali. Seeing the eldest sister's appearance at this moment, he couldn't help but feel amazed in his heart.
But I saw the majestic man sitting in the fire and subduing the terrible beasts over there, looking at Pan Shenghao's grace, and felt that such a good man was a good man. No wonder even the eldest sister, who had always been cold and arrogant, fell in love with him. Unfortunately, it was the third sister that his father had set up with him.
, not the eldest sister.
Taking another peek at the expression of the third sister, He Lingyue, He Lingyue seemed to notice something. She immediately put away the fleeting confusion in her eyes, turned her head and glared at He Hongzhi, and turned away with a snort.
Seeing that Jiang Dali had jumped off the flaming unicorn and started to greet the master of the palace, the three girls also came forward to greet him and express their greetings.
Jiang Dali returned the greeting politely as usual, settled the fire unicorn, and then rode into the city proudly on a horse led by a city official, attracting bursts of cheers.
On the way to Hefu in the center of the city, Jiang Dali also secretly observed this city, which was known as the richest city in the Holy Dynasty, and found that it was indeed well-deserved.
The streets in the city are spacious enough for eight carriages to drive parallelly. Many of the buildings in the city are even three-story buildings, and some are as high as more than ten stories. The architectural craftsmanship is also extremely beautiful, showing the city's strong financial resources and style. Along the way,
Among the people who lined the streets to welcome him, there were also some martial arts people, and occasionally he could sense the energy of a few strong men and women.
Jiang Dali sighed in his heart, it is impossible for a few masters of heaven and humans to appear so casually in any city in the vassal states.
But in Longyun Mansion of the Holy Dynasty, we encountered a situation of crowding together.
Curious in his heart, he moved his soul and used extremely obscure methods to reach out to the few heavenly masters gathered together. Soon, several figures of men and women sitting at the street tables of the restaurant appeared in his mind.
The sounds of conversations and discussions among several people also reached my ears.
"Mighty Marquis, he is indeed worthy of his reputation. I just saw the Fire Qilin tamed by him from a distance. I feel that even if the three of us go together, we will definitely not be the opponent of the Fire Qilin."
"That's just a horse under someone's crotch."
"Marquis Weiwu is very powerful, but after all, strong dragons cannot overwhelm local snakes. He has only arrived in the Holy Dynasty for a few days? There are already rumors in several cities that he came out of Tianyuan. Obviously some people don't want him to have an easy time."
"Um?"
Jiang Dali's expression condensed. He didn't expect that he happened to hear such important information just by eavesdropping unintentionally. He immediately concentrated and continued to listen to the conversation of several people.
"...Those are just rumors after all. Who can have such great ability to come out of Tianyuan? It's been so many years. Although Weiwuhou is very strong, he still doesn't have such ability."
"I don't believe it either. Many people don't believe it. But once this kind of thing spreads, even if only a small number of people believe it, it will be very detrimental to Marquis Weiwu."
"Hehe... You have the guts to spread this kind of news, and let this seemingly false news spread to several cities so quickly. This energy is not small. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore.
This time I came to Longyun Mansion mainly not to watch the excitement..."
By this point in the conversation, several people had changed the topic and started talking about private matters.
Jiang Dali listened to a few words and was too lazy to listen any more, so he directly transmitted the message into the minds of the three of them with his soul.
"You three, come to He Mansion to find me in Xu Shi."
...
In the restaurant opposite, two men and a woman who were having a lively conversation were all frightened, with chills all over their bodies. One of them subconsciously stood up and shouted, "Who is playing tricks on the three of us..."
Before they finished speaking, all three of them felt a gaze that looked like a substance coming from the window and fell on them. They all involuntarily felt a wave of heart palpitations and weakness, and they all looked out the window in horror.
In the street below, I saw Jiang Dali's burly figure riding a tall horse, his eyes gleaming towards this side, full of a chilling, magical appeal that made people feel chilled.
All three of them felt short of breath and almost unsteady on their feet.
After a long while, the three of them slowly regained their breath. They were all covered in cold sweat, as if they had just been fished out of the water. Even at this moment, they didn't know when Jiang Dali moved away from his eyes. They could only watch blankly.
The figures who disappeared at the end of the street looked at each other in confusion.
"The message just came from us..."
"It's him, Marquis Weiwu."
"Ku Ye. It's true that trouble comes from the mouth. We were just talking about him and he noticed it. What should we do now?"
"Whatever you can do, do it honestly. Do you still think you can escape?"
...
After a stick of incense.
As expected, Jiang Dali met He Jin, who was known as the invincible man in the Holy Dynasty, at the gate of the luxurious He Mansion, which was like a huge manor.
The extremely wealthy head of the He family looks to be about forty years old, with a short ruler-cut beard on his chin. He is majestic and noble, and full of aura. Although he looks rich and plump, he is still surprisingly solid and strong.
Feeling conflicted, when Jiang Dali took the initiative to greet him warmly, he felt like a long-time friend with no pretensions, showing a strong affinity.
At this time, many dignitaries and dignitaries had come to attend the meeting in front of He's house, and people and cars were constantly passing by.
But He Jinsi could tell at a glance that Jiang Dali didn't like to be polite, so he didn't introduce anyone, and just took Jiang Dali by himself, exchanging greetings, and walked towards the house.
At this time, I saw lanterns everywhere in the large garden behind the main house.
Even though it was still daytime, it was interesting in its own way.
Many maids and guests paid attention to Jiang Dali, who was communicating with He Jin, but they all were sensible and did not come forward to talk.
Jiang Dali felt quite comfortable with He Jin's excellent way of dealing with people. He secretly thought that this person was worthy of being a king among businessmen. This just right way of treating guests showed his ability to dance well.
Give people any sense of smoothness.
The guest casually changed into a pair of clean clothes and a suit of armor given by He Mao that could withstand Qilin fire. Jiang Dali followed He Jin to a symbolic dinner party, and then made an appointment with Boss He.
Discussing matters in the study room.
The study is surrounded by shadows of trees, quiet and deserted.
On the surface, there are four groups of experts from the He family patrolling the corridors at all times to prevent anyone from disturbing them.
In the study, He Jin, dressed in casual clothes, extended his hand to invite Jiang Dali and the head of the Longyun Mansion, who was dressed in black and had a mustache, to sit down. He sat on the chair with a smile and clapped his hands.
Immediately, two men and one woman were sent in by two powerful guards.
Jiang Dali had already noticed the auras of these three heavenly beings whom he had seen on the street during the day, and was not surprised to see that all three of them had arrived as promised.
He Jin turned the ring on his finger and said with a smile, "Master Hou's observation skills are really great. These three people came to Long Yun Mansion for other important matters, but they actually talked and slandered you, Master Hou, on the way, and now they are easily dismissed."
The Marquis found out, what are you going to do with these three people?"
When the two men and one woman heard this, their faces turned pale and gloomy with fear, and their eyes began to reveal prayers when they looked at Jiang Dali.
They walked around the world. In the eyes of others, they were extremely powerful masters of heaven and humans. They were guests of various sects. They were also somewhat famous in the world. However, they were facing Jiang Dali and others at this time. They all knew that there was no room for resistance.
I didn't even dare to think about running away.
Jiang Dali looked at the three of them with a faint smile and said, "Master He, I asked the three of them to come here just to hear from them what other cities were saying about me. Now it seems that you know
There are more than the three of them.
In this case, let the three of them go, I just listen to you, Master He, and that's enough."
When the two men and one woman heard this, their faces became even more bitter.
Letting them go is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing. Letting them go without asking a word proves that they are worthless. Those worthless people know too much. Isn't this a sad thing?
"I...I know a piece of news, maybe the head of the He family doesn't know it yet."
One of the women with triangular eyes stammered nervously.
"oh?"
He Jin raised his eyebrows with great interest.
The woman stared at Jiang Dali and told everything she knew.
"We came from Blue River City in Yuzhou. That was just three days ago. There was a lot of talk in Blue River City... about you coming out of the abyss, Lord Marquis. Many people
I didn’t believe it at first, but then the rumors became more and more intense, and even other surrounding cities appeared, so some people gradually began to believe it.”
"We didn't pay much attention at first. But when we left Blue River City in a low-key manner, we unexpectedly discovered that a group of people were conspiring to slander you, Lord Marquis. There were experts among them. We didn't dare to get close. We just vaguely heard the words "Lu
The words "grandmaster" and "Lu family"..."
"Lu family!"
The Lord of Longyun Mansion on the side narrowed his eyes, looked at He Jin, and nodded slightly, showing the deep friendship and close relationship between the two. It is no wonder that according to folk rumors, the successive lords of Longyun Mansion were all influenced by the He family.
Influence and support the superior.
"Lu family!"
A question also popped up in Jiang Dali's mind.
Among the six major families in the Holy Dynasty, there seems to be no Lu family.
There doesn't seem to be any Grandmaster Lu among his enemies.
However, he was certain that these three heavenly beings did not lie.
"Okay, you go down. But in the past month, you will stay in Longyun Mansion and don't go anywhere. It will cost my family money. Remember, don't talk nonsense after you go out."
He Jin waved his hand, dismissed the three of them, looked at Jiang Dali, and looked like he had something to discuss.
The two men and one woman left with sad faces.
He is under house arrest in Longyun Mansion. Although he has money to spend, is having money a big deal?
Are these three dignified heavenly beings who are short of money?
But I'm sorry! The reality is like this. It's really amazing to be as rich as the He family. In the ordinary state of return to the truth, you can only be reduced to the guest of the He family. The relationship between heaven and man is really nothing.
After the three people left, He Jindang informed Jiang Dali of the specific situation of the Lu family and Master Lu, and then said seriously.
"Lu Ping is the twelfth generation descendant of the Lu family. Now he is the deputy head of the Lingyun Pavilion and has a second-rank official position. He is arrogant and reckless, eager for quick success, but he also has the usual pride of being a descendant of the Lu family and worries about the world.
He has a bad habit, so he hates evil as much as he hates it. He really wants to do good things for the benefit of the people, just to carry forward the spirit of Master Lu in the past of the Lu family."
On the side, the head of Longyun Palace frowned and said, "This person is not bad, but he has character flaws. He likes to act with little cleverness and is easily taken advantage of. He has offended many people in the court, but considering his background in the Lu family, no one
If you dare to do anything to him, the most it will be is a verbal attack. But this time he actually targeted you, Mr. Hou..."
He Jin smiled lightly and said, "Lu Ping was obviously taken advantage of by others this time. Otherwise, with his ability, if no one told him, how would he know that you came out of Tianyuan, Lord Marquis? It's a pity that he came out of Tianyuan this time.
His little cleverness was used in the wrong place.”
Jiang Dali crossed his hands on his chest and said with a smile on his lips, "Since everyone is shouting and beating when we come out of Tianyuan, why is the head of the He family still willing to socialize with Jiang in a big way even though he knows Jiang's current situation? Is it because he is not afraid of getting angry?"
He Jin was surprised, and immediately laughed out loud, stood up and paced, "I say, Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou. What kind of fire can burn our heads? Just one Lu Ping, or someone behind him.
The person who gave the advice?”
He Jin smiled sarcastically and said disdainfully, "The person who pointed out Lu Ping used a fool as a shield in front of him, but he did not dare to confront you head-on. He is obviously very afraid of you, Lord Marquis."
Jiang Dali said calmly, "Since the fire can't burn me, do you think they are doing useless work?"
He Jin laughed and looked at Jiang Dali. The answer appeared in their eyes.
Regent!
Everything!
All Lu Ping's efforts now are actually just to put pressure on the regent.
He Jin knows this clearly.
Jiang Dali also knew it.
Before the regent made a statement, whoever dared to attack Jiang Dali would face terrible risks and huge costs.
Even before the regent made his statement, no one knew what the regent's attitude was, and no one dared to mention it. Perhaps only Lu Ping, a guy with a self-sufficient background and an impulsive and radical attitude, dared to mention it.
If this is the case, then force the regent to express his position and use public opinion to force the regent to give an explanation. At that time, there will naturally be reasons to attack Jiang Dali.
Jiang Dali pondered, "So, the person who was guiding Lu Ping behind his back has a grudge against me? Although Lu Ping is a fool, he is not a fool that can be commanded by just any cat or dog.
In the entire Holy Dynasty, only the four major factions of your six major families have the energy and strength to instruct Lu Ping, right? And among these ten, the only one who has enmity with me is the Wan family."
He Jin smiled and shook his head, "No! It doesn't necessarily have to be Wanjia!"
"oh?"
Jiang Dali was surprised.
He Jin smiled meaningfully and said, "Master Jiangzhai, I now call you Master Jiangzhai. I don't call you Lord Marquis. Because your status as Marquis of Mighty is very special."
Jiang Dali had no expression on his face, "I'd like to hear the details!"
He Jin paced with his hands behind his back and continued to talk, "In so many holy dynasties, no one has ever made a marquis except you. You are the first! The first in history! This means that the regent has great respect for you.
He values you so much that he may even regard you as his next successor."
Jiang Dali looked moved.
‘Heir’, this very important identity came from He Jin’s mouth, and it was indeed shocking.
"But this identity, whether you appreciate it or not, is not easy to sit on. The ancestors of our six major families used to follow the Holy Emperor in the north and south, and accumulated a profound foundation. Therefore, they have been deeply rooted in the Holy Dynasty for thousands of years.
.....But any force, once it exists for a long time, will undergo some changes..."
He Jin said in a deep tone, "It's like a person is used to doing something. If he does it for ten years, he can endure it. If he does it for fifty years, he will become numb. If he does it for a hundred years, he will go crazy.
Our six major families are actually crazy in nature. Fortunately, my He family is just seeking wealth after all. If we cannot be the best in power, we will be the best in wealth. Therefore, no matter how crazy we are, it is just a crazily amassing money.
The other five major families can neither pursue extreme power nor extreme wealth. Do you think they will settle down?
But they were restless. The Human Emperor was still there, and they could only endure it. But it happened that the Human Emperor had gone into seclusion more than four hundred years ago.
It is in these four hundred years that the other five major families are no longer ready to take action, but are constantly taking various actions and doing too many things that are expressly prohibited by the Holy Dynasty."
Having said this, He Jin's eyes sparkled, he turned to Jiang Dali, and said with profound meaning, "The deep-rooted roots of the six major families have penetrated into almost all walks of life in the entire holy dynasty, including private business and people's livelihood. The so-called tree falls and the house falls, the regent also
It’s difficult to cut down trees, but I just want to check and balance. Until the Emperor comes out of seclusion, all problems will be non-issues.”
"Checks and balances! So I became the key to checks and balances! This was a game of chess played by the regent, and I became his commander? The commander of other people's army?
So...my arrival is not only a threat to the Wan family, but also a threat to the other four major families. They all regard me as their enemy."
Jiang Dali understood it completely, but he was also a little bit dumbfounded.
These issues are really confusing to the authorities but clear to onlookers.
Before today, he had not seen through it. He actually thought that apart from the Wan family, there were no enemies in the Holy Dynasty. Who would have thought that he was already besieged on all sides?
So this time Lu Ping, the knife held out by others, was the first confrontation and test.
So, now that everything is clear, why are you still hesitating?
What Jiang Dali dislikes the most is playing chess, but what he is best at is breaking chess.
Now that the enemy has made a move on the chessboard, Lu Ping, a pawn, has already crossed the river.
Of course he would retaliate, and not with cannons to attack pawns, but with direct generals...
