The arrival of the Western Union mission was also a sensational event for the entire southern border.

Although many ordinary people may have never heard of what kind of organization this is, for the slightly knowledgeable Gonghou Bo, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Even if their understanding of Western Union is almost blank, they only know that it is an emerging force spanning the west and north, but who would not follow suit? Seeing that the big chambers of commerce are beginning to prepare intensively, the princes cannot help but

aroused great interest.

The Great Chamber of Commerce travels between Wuya North and South, so they know more things than ordinary people. However, this is also their first official contact with Western Union. Before this, their cooperation partners were mainly Huayun Valley and the six major families. Among them

Especially the Hai family.

Most of their understanding of Western Union comes from these established powerful forces in the north, but the latter's evaluation of Western Union shows an absurd polarization trend.

Because with the rise of Western Union, even if Gong Ningshui, Nila Bei and others manage their business carefully, they will inevitably have conflicts with some large sects and families. For example, although Huayun Valley is extremely confident in its own heritage, it does not bother to go there.

Imitating Western Union's business methods, but as Western Union gradually grew, many Huayun Valley elders became extremely wary. Some advocated cooperation with Western Union, while others advocated annexation and elimination.

In this regard, the strategy discussed by the top management of Western Union is to unite with Huayun Valley in the short term to suppress the Hai family. After all, the negotiations on Fuyao Star have completely collapsed, and the Hai family has made it clear that they want to destroy Western Union and dominate the Western Territory

Channel. But after all, Huayun Valley is a sect rather than a family. Due to their different natures, there is no fierce conflict of interest with Xilian for the time being, and there is still room for relaxation.

So after several rounds of negotiations, Huayungu remained on the sidelines and watched the various overt and covert struggles between Western Union and Haijia.

Although Haijia was once Huayungu's "close partner", there are no permanent friends, only eternal interests. Putting Haijia in a situation of neither getting up nor down, whether Huayungu wants to help Western Union collapse

They still extended a helping hand to the Hai family in critical moments, and the benefits they received were much greater than the original situation.

Of course, Western Union also knows that Huayun Valley is unreliable and can fall out at any time, but now they have barely squeezed into the category of first-class major forces in terms of economic strength, but their military strength does not allow them to confront two established forces at the same time.

The crazy suppression of the Western Union has put Western Union in a difficult situation, so it has become crucial to find a way out from the south.

Of course, Nilabe will definitely not let the Southern Chamber of Commerce know these inside stories, otherwise these guys will put on a high profile and wait for a price, then the cooperation will not be able to maintain an equal status from the beginning.

Before he came to the southern border, he first learned about the opinions of those chambers of commerce on Western Union and found that some of them thought Western Union was a potential partner, but others thought Western Union had an unstable foundation and was in danger of overturning at any time.

It is not appropriate to cooperate in depth, and it will offend the Hai family.

The latter view is normal. Nilabe is more pleased that half of the chambers of commerce are still willing to contact Western Union. After all, the Hai family is a powerful force in the north and cannot control it so broadly. If Western Union can prove that it will be in the future

If the benefits brought to these chambers of commerce far exceed those of the Hai family, then they will change their attitude in an instant.

Under the spotlight of everyone, the Western Union mission first settled in Nanhuang Star. His Majesty the Southern King received them ceremoniously. I don’t know what they discussed. Anyway, after five days, the mission said goodbye and left, telling almost everyone in the South.

All the princes sent greeting cards.

The Twelve Grand Dukes were staying in their dens, waiting for the Western Union envoy to come to visit. However, the lower ranking lieutenants and uncles could not sit still, and each of them took the initiative to send their replies to Nila Bei.

Here, the words are very polite, and they all hope to become familiar with each other in advance.

But soon, everyone's ideas changed.

Because after the Western Alliance mission left Nanhuang Planet, the first stop they went to was Ruifu Planet.

It is said that after Duke Haiming learned the news, he did not do anything. He kicked his precious coral jade screen to pieces, overturned his ten thousand year old ebony table, and ordered the Western Union mission to be blacklisted and not allowed to step on it.

It’s only half a step into the sea and stars.

Everyone was dumbfounded by this. They did not believe that Western Union did not investigate the situation of the princes before coming here. For the hierarchical Southern Territory, issues of status and order are more important than life, let alone Western Union directly jumped to Ruifu.

Xing, even if they cross Haiming Gong to find Shang Yun Gong, it is a serious violation of the rules.

I'm afraid Western Union is crazy... This was everyone's first reaction.

Duke Ruiya was also surprised by this. Although he felt happy to be ranked in front of Duke Haiming, he was still more confused and wary.

But no matter what he was thinking in his heart, he still prepared the highest standard of hospitality, second only to welcoming the other eleven Grand Dukes.

At the same time, Duke Ruiya did not forget to send a large number of people to watch Shang Chuiyu to prevent Duke Tianshang from taking advantage of the chaos. Before replacing Fu Jirui, he would never leave any gaps, otherwise the situation would be passive.

After all preparations were made, the Western Union Mission also arrived at Ruifu Planet one early morning.

As usual, no business was discussed on the first day. The people from the Grand Duke's Palace enthusiastically took Nilabe and others around Daxiang City, the capital of Ruifu Star, and then enjoyed a sumptuous lunch.

After a few song and dance performances, the day was almost over.

Nilabe and other senior Western Union officials were specially arranged to live in an elegant courtyard. Unless they asked to live together, a small courtyard for each person would be the minimum treatment.

If Western Union had visited in order, Duke Rhea would certainly not have taken it so seriously, but Western Union showed unparalleled attention, and out of courtesy, Duke Rhea had to reciprocate.

The other ordinary envoys lived in more than a dozen courtyards nearby. No one noticed that the two figures left the room silently and disappeared into the deep night.

"Junior brother, you have also seen the map of the Grand Duke's Mansion. Should we go to Xuanzhu and the others first?" Although Fang Zijin was shrouded in Yu Ling's Hidden Words, he still kept looking around, alert to the surrounding movements.

"It's not appropriate to meet them now, wait until I confirm Fu Ping's identity."

Yu Ling doesn't look like Fang Zijin, who has a guilty conscience. Anyway, his soul power is always covering the surroundings, and he can easily avoid all the eyes.

There are not many patrolling guards in the palace, at least not to the point of one sentry at five steps and one post at ten steps. After all, this is the palace of the Grand Duke of Rhea. Who dares to cause trouble here after being full, and the formation of the Grand Duke's Palace is mainly for defense.

It's from the outside, so it's of little use to people like Yu Ling who have already penetrated the inside.

"Do you still need to confirm? I don't think there are any other suspicious people in the Grand Duke's palace." Fang Zijin said.

"Everything is just my speculation, and there are some things that don't make sense. You have to confirm it with your own eyes before you can feel at ease." Yu Ling maintained her usual cautious attitude.

"That's true. We've already done some research. Fu Ping lives in a relatively remote area. Let's go around the pavilion, turn left and walk five hundred meters, pass a garden, go through, then turn right, and then..." Fang

Zijin said very nonchalantly.

"It's okay, I've memorized the route."

"Can't I repeat it again? I just want to emphasize that my road fever has been cured. From now on, Junior Brother Nian and I are no longer the same person!" Fang Zijin said proudly.

"...Is this something to be proud of? Did you draw the route?"

"...No." Fang Zijin hesitated for a second, then cheered up and said, "But I memorized it!"

"oh."

"What's your attitude?"

Senior Brother Fang received ten thousand points of damage. Senior Brother Fang decided to find another way to prove himself. Senior Brother Fang spread out the map and prepared to find another shortcut... A few minutes later, Senior Brother Fang found that he had arrived at his destination.

"Okay, how long have you been looking at that map, and can you still spot a flower? Now that you're in charge, I'll go inside and take a look." Yu Ling took the map from his hand directly.

"Hey, why don't you give me a little more chance..." Fang Zijin looked at the map reluctantly.

"Men with mental illness once felt that they had great advantages." Yu Ling rejected him ruthlessly, then gathered all her breath, climbed over the wall and came to Fu Ping's yard.

There are also some middle- and lower-class guest officials living here, and Fu Ping is also named in the guest officials' mansion. He is considered a rare genius among them, so Duke Ruiya gave him the surname Fu.

As for whether this is the case, that is another matter.

Yu Ling's spirit power wandered around, and according to the information provided by Mei Lindong, he finally found the room where Fu Ping was. Although it was late at night, the young man in the room was still sitting cross-legged in meditation, polishing every ray of spiritual power and expressing himself.

You have to work harder than most of your peers.

This man's appearance matches Mei Lindong's description, but does not match Lin Shu's description.

But if he was really Jing Ping, he would have changed his appearance long ago, so his appearance is not important, what is important is his aura.

Yu Ling's eyes moved to a jade pendant in the spiritual ring, which was given to him by Lin Shu. It is said that Jing Ping wore it when he was a child. He only needs to carefully compare the spiritual power inside to determine Fu Ping's true identity.
