The Wu family ranks at the bottom among the inner city's powerful people, but how many are there in the inner city's powerful people? Being able to enter the inner city itself means that the Wu family is very powerful.
A hundred years ago, the Wu family was prosperous for a while, and there were many senior officials of the third rank or above in the court. However, after that era, the Wu family became much more depressed. Although there is still a senior official in the court, he is not a senior official in power, but a clean yamen.
However, as an inner city family, the Wu family still has a deep foundation. The family has three extreme cultivations, one of which is at the peak of the Jue Rong Realm, and the other two are also in the late stage of the Jue Zhao Realm.
In addition, they also hired four desperate "house guards and hospital guards".
The Wu family's ancestral home has been continuously enhanced and renovated by dozens of generations, with eighth-level formation defense. It is said that there are also large-scale war magic weapons hidden in the house.
But the emperor turned a blind eye, so no one went to investigate them.
The Wu family wanted to restore the glory of their ancestors and had been secretly looking for opportunities, but there were too many people in the court who wanted to please the emperor, so they couldn't get on the Wu family.
And this time, the royal family received news half a year ago that Chen Yunpeng's realm showed signs of breakthrough. Once it was broken through, it would be a new realm of heaven!
The royal family will never allow the Chen family to appear in a heavenly realm, but in order to block the world's long and leisurely mouth, they cannot really directly kill the Chen family, so others need to stand up and fight against the Chen family, restrain the Chen family, suppress Chen Yunpeng, and prevent him from breaking through.
It is not too late to take action at this time, and it is not so easy to take the step to become a heavenly realm. Just think about it and you will know that there are so many extreme practices in the entire mortal world, and there are not a thousand or eight hundred at the peak of the Absolute Merge Realm, but how many people in the Heavenly Realm are there in total?
But what surprised the royal family was that when they secretly released news, hoping that someone would suppress Chen Yunpeng, the top families in the capital were all pretending to be deaf and dumb!
So they could only settle for the second best to suggest those first-class families.
However, these first-class families are also timid, and some even secretly said that they can help from the side, but they will never be the one who stands out.
Now the royal family is completely popular!
What does it mean? You are not optimistic that the royal family can completely suppress the Chen family?! It's a rebellion!
It has to be said that the royal family today is indeed a group of idiots, including the vicious queen, none of them have unique vision.
In fact, the masters think more complicatedly.
They may not be more optimistic about the Chen family, but they do not need to travel to this muddy waters and the great family is already strong enough. They are all their people in important positions in the court. So what can be done to please the emperor? What the emperor can give is an official position, and they already have it.
Once the Chen family retaliates, they will be affected.
Weighing the risks and pros and cons, they decided to watch the tiger fight.
But the Wu family jumped out at this time, and they needed to please and curry favor with the royal family. So the Wu family united several Beijing families with similar situations as theirs but weaker strength, and became enthusiastic about making their debut to suppress the Chen family.
With this move, the Wu family was mute and could not say anything about the pain.
They didn't expect that the Chen family was already so powerful!
In order to suppress the Chen family's business, they grabbed orders at a lower price. This made the few companies that were not very rich in finance worse. However, they had already praised Haikou in front of the emperor, but had to do it.
In terms of practice, the Wu family is preparing to let his ancestor, the peak of Juerong Realm, take action. Whether it is open or secretly fighting, or discussing the Tao, in short, he will slam Chen Yunpeng's aura and let him be bound to Juerong Realm and unable to break through the heavenly realm in one go.
Chen Zhining got Chao Dongliu's guidance and prepared a gift the next morning to visit Mr. Yue.
Mr. Yue already tends to Chen Zhining in his heart, but because of his friendship with the emperor, he is not good at directly supporting the Chen family.
He warmly welcomed Chen Zhining. After Chen Zhining gave the gift, he asked indirectly about some things.
Mr. Yue knew the elegance when he heard the string song, and said with a smile: "I know a little about the Wu family, but I think you won't care about those things, Xiao Chen.
There is only one thing that has something to do with you. There was an old man in the previous generation of the Wu family who once cared for a poor young monk. He recommended this monk to enter the Imperial Academy. Later, the young monk gradually stood out and is now the great priest of the Imperial Academy."
Chen Zhining suddenly realized that if we talked about the various stories in the capital, Chaodongliu was not as good as Mr. Yue, or no one could compare to Mr. Yue.
If I hadn't come to ask, and went straight to fight against the Wu family, I'm afraid I'd turn against Leng Baji.
He thanked Mr. Yue, and after he returned, he carefully prepared a gift, took it with him and went straight to the Taixue School.
It was still the same small building, Leng Baji was still obsessed with the restoration and sorting of his ancient books. When he saw Chen Zhining coming, he smiled faintly: "I am quite conscientious and I know to come to see me, the old man."
Chen Zhining smiled and put down the gift: "You are also my teacher, of course you can't be ungrateful."
The gift opened, and four bottles of the thousand-year-old true wine made Leng Baji's eyes lit up: "Okay, I'll accept this filial piety."
Chen Zhining chatted with him for a few words, asked about the recent situation of the Imperial Academy, and then said: "You and the Wu family..."
As soon as he spoke, Leng Baji understood the meaning and nodded, "There is indeed some connection."
Chen Zhining felt a little tricky: "The Wu family has been very good at flattering the emperor recently."
Leng Baji glanced at him and said, "Old Master Wu Zhenjiu helped me back then. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to enter the Imperial Academy, and I wouldn't have been the same person I am now.
Mr. Wu has passed away. At this time, he is talking about his fault. But if I don’t explain it clearly, I’m afraid you will not be at ease.
He helped me for a purpose. After I became the high priest of the Imperial College, the Wu family would send three students who did not meet the requirements every year.
I endured it for five years, and this kind of thing really hurt me."
Chen Zhining understood very well. With Leng Baji's upright and selfless nature, he was employed to repay his kindness and had to violate the rules. It was indeed very uncomfortable.
"Until Mr. Wu passed away, the Wu family still wanted this, but I couldn't bear it anymore. From then on, my relationship with the Wu family gradually became distant."
He nodded and said to Chen Zhining: "You can come and ask me, first, it means that you do remember me as a teacher, which is not bad. Second, it means that you are mature than before, and you are more stable in doing things, which is better."
He waved his hand and said, "If you want to do whatever you want, don't care about me, the old man."
"Thank you, teacher." Chen Zhining thanked and left without any scruples in his heart.
...
When Chen Zhining returned home, he heard his mother getting angry. After listening quietly, he understood: the Wu family stole another business order from them.
Chen Zhining gritted his teeth and thought about it and went out.
He found Ying Yuansu, who practiced hard at home and was a good man.
Ying Yuansu is now disciplined by Yun Tianyin, who is very "well-behaved". He dares not drink flower wine, dares to go out to mess with friends, and dares to stroll around the streets to be a playboy.
The benefit I received is that I have two hours a day when I am with Yun Tianyin. Young Master Ying is happy to accept it.
Chen Zhining pulled him out, and Ying Yuansu said with a righteous word: "Zhining, what do you want to do when you are so late? I will talk about places like Zuilou first. I promised Tianyin that I will never go to those fireworks places again..."
Chen Zhining glared at him fiercely: "Look at your promising prospect!"
Then he said, "I have a serious matter with you, but you may have to act like a bitter plan."
Ying Yuansu hesitated: "Will you be beaten?"
"It's hard to say." Chen Zhining said: "Seventy percent of them are likely to be beaten."
"This..." Ying Yuansu gritted his teeth: "No problem, we brothers are just talking." Chen Zhining smiled and said, "Are you wronged? I don't know you yet, don't worry, it will definitely be beneficial if you don't let your efforts in vain."
Ying Yuansu laughed: "I don't want any benefits now. I already have Tianyin."
Chen Zhining covered his face with his hand and said in pain: "Ying Yuansu, you are a dog-daddy today!"
...
Early the next morning, Master Ying, who had Chen Zhining's face-to-face teaching, returned to his former dandy dress, with a greasy head, pink face, brocade clothes and satin, and walked leisurely on the street with a folding fan. He walked around in a treasure shop.
This treasure shop has a big front and can rank among the top ten in the entire capital. This is the most profitable industry in the Wu family.
As soon as he entered the door, Master Ying shouted at the top of his throat: "Is there anybody who can breathe? Why are the guests coming to the door, and there is not even a greeting?"
"You are being taken care of, you are negligent." A shop assistant came up soon, and his cultivation was not weak, but it was actually in the middle stage of Xuanzhao Realm.
The one who sells magic weapons must be a monk, otherwise he would not even explain the quality or bad to the customer. After the shop came up, he asked politely: "What treasure does the guest want? Wu Zhen remembers that we are all-encompassing, but we can count them in the capital. If you can't find it here, you will not be able to find the entire capital."
"Plug your cow first, it has already flown into the sky." Master Ying cursed angrily. This is his true performance. Master Ying used to be like this.
The shopkeeper was angry when he was scolded, but he could only smile on his face: "Yes, why don't you take a look first?"
Ying Yuansu made a walk around: "What kind of garbage is it? Is this the level of your Wu Zhenji?"
The shop clerk said calmly: "Of course there are good things, and it is impossible to hang them outside."
Ying Yuansu glared at him and stepped on the counter, kicking him almost flipped over: "What do you mean? I think you, Master Ying, can't afford to pay?"
The shopkeeper quickly came out: "Oh, isn't this Master Ying? The new guy doesn't know you. These things are tainting your eyes. Please come with me, there are good things inside."
