Chapter 343 Three things to do when a new official takes office
At dawn the next day, when Hong Qingyan walked out of the inner courtyard, she was back to her usual appearance. The aloof and transcendent temperament of yesterday was completely gone, but her walking style was no longer the same as before.
The foot is lame.
This was something Shi Yehong specially told. After all, the technique she practiced was too special, so she had to hide it.
At this time, Ye Feng had led Xiao Chuanqi and others to leave Beiyunju and joined Zhang Wenyuan and others. Now Hong Qingyan not only became a disciple of the second master Shi Yehong, but also practiced rapidly and became a
There are countless masters, so Ye Feng naturally feels more at ease.
It can be said that Hong Qingyan can basically deal with it as long as a powerful person above the level of the Shinto Realm or above the Divine Realm suddenly kills someone, and even if it is a powerful person at the Divine Realm level, if it is a one-on-one situation
, even Hong Qingyan was able to avoid being at a disadvantage.
After all, he followed the path of ascetics in ancient times. Hong Qingyan at this time is no longer the Hong Qingyan of yesterday!
As for Ye Feng's trip to the south, although he did not bring many people with him on the surface, he was only surrounded by his followers Xiao Chuanqi, Sima Zhantian, Leng Wuming and other close followers. Of course, apart from these people on the surface,
In fact, just last night, Ye Feng had already sent part of his hidden power to the southern border.
As for Hong Qingyan, she stayed in Beiyunju. According to Hong Qingyan, now she is fully able to take charge of her own affairs and should share the worries of her husband, so she stayed here to keep an eye on the goings-on in the Imperial Capital.
After thinking about this, Ye Feng stopped insisting. To a certain extent, it was undoubtedly safer for Hong Qingyan to stay in the imperial capital than to go to the south.
Because Xuanyuan Kingdom will hold the World Martial Arts Conference in half a month, and people from the nine ancient martial arts sects will also participate. Therefore, during this period, everyone is focusing on the Martial Arts Conference.
He will go out of his way to cause trouble.
The airport in the inner city is not big, and it seems a bit small and shabby. But don't look at such an airport. Even the nobles and nobles in the inner city of the imperial capital may not be qualified to come here.
It can be said that those who can come here to take a special private plane are all of extraordinary status. They are basically the headmasters of the Tianyong Pavilion of the Xuanyuan Kingdom and the generals of the General Mansion. In addition, there are also the heads of the three most important departments of the Xuanyuan Kingdom.
.
"I'm really happy that you can come. I believe that with you accompanying me this time, I will be able to save a lot of trouble." Seeing Ye Feng approaching, Zhang Wenyuan immediately put down what he was doing and walked over quickly.
Ye Feng smiled faintly and said: "Speaking of which, I haven't been to the southern border for a while. Anyway, I don't have much to do during this time. Let's go for a walk and visit old friends."
Speaking of this, Ye Feng remembered something, so he turned to ask: "By the way, are you really not going to participate in the World Martial Arts Conference in half a month?"
Zhang Wenyuan immediately let out a bitter smile, then shook his head and sighed: "Originally I really didn't plan to participate, but when I went back last night, my master came to me specifically for this purpose and asked me to participate no matter what, so
I really can’t help it…”
At this point, Zhang Wenyuan shrugged slightly, showing a very helpless look.
Ye Feng couldn't help but smile lightly: "Everyone in the world can participate in the World Martial Arts Conference. Although you and I can be considered friends, at that time, you and I can just rely on our true abilities. There is no need to feel sorry for me."
Zhang Wenyuan nodded and said: "Don't worry, just because I regard you as a friend, I will definitely use all my abilities to treat you when the time comes!"
Ye Feng agreed, because that's what he thought. If the two sides hide it when the time comes to confront each other, then they don't treat each other sincerely.
"Time is running out. I believe the appointment letter has been conveyed to the southern border. Let's go!" Ye Feng said and waved his hand, and then the two of them boarded the private plane together.
Zhang Wenyuan did not bring many followers this time, only three people. It seemed that some of his followers should have set off early. Two planes took off and finally arrived at the southern base camp four hours later.
.
When the airport slowly landed at the specific airport of the Southern Territory Base Camp from mid-air, the airport was already surrounded by bustling crowds. Unsurprisingly, these people were basically dignitaries from the Southern Territory, and some of them were from several of the nine Southern Territories.
Lord, there are also some noble families from the Southern Territory.
There is no doubt that the fact that these people came to the airport to greet him in person speaks for itself. Of course, they firmly support the new Southern King.
Ye Feng took a quick glance and found that there were indeed quite a few people coming to greet them. Five of the nine domain lords from the Southern Territory came to greet them in person. In addition, more than half of the Southern Territory commanders also came in person.
The people present alone are enough to surpass more than half of the forces in the Southern Territory. It can be said that with the support of these forces, Zhang Wenyuan can basically secure his position in the Southern Territory today, and he believes that he will be able to completely consolidate his position in the Southern Territory soon.
status.
Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh. After all, he was the direct disciple of the Grand Master of Tianyong Pavilion. Zhao Gongming's influence was so powerful. Even in the southern region, his influence was so great. Compared with himself, who had no background at all.
After the attack in Gyeonggi a year ago, even the throne of the King of the North was taken away by others.
"After all, there are people in the court who are easy to do!" Ye Feng smiled slightly. After getting off the plane, he did not take a step, but just stood there with nothing to do. Anyway, these people were not here to greet him, so naturally he didn't
There will be an indication.
Zhang Wenyuan was different. After getting off the plane, he quickly walked towards the crowd. His whole face showed a flattered look. Although Ye Feng knew that Zhang Wenyuan might not think highly of these local dignitaries in the south, he undoubtedly had to show full enthusiasm at this moment.
.
After all, Zhang Wenyuan knew very well that these people supported him more for the sake of the headmaster's face. If he didn't show his enthusiasm now, he would probably lose the favor of some people here.
Of course, he also knows that just having a good impression is not enough. Next, he needs to establish his prestige, so that he can quickly establish his prestige in the southern border. However, how to quickly establish his prestige, he can't go there for a while.
But he is not in a hurry because he believes he will find a way.
After finally chatting politely with these local dignitaries in the southern border, Zhang Wenyuan introduced Ye Feng sideways. In fact, all of the people present were familiar with Ye Feng, the Northern King.
As early as a year ago, the Northern King Ye Feng had visited the Southern Territory. At that time, the former Southern Territory King Dugu Ming was placed under house arrest. In the end, it was because of Ye Feng that he was able to escape.
In fact, it was precisely because of this incident that although Dugu Ming later returned to the position of Southern King because of Ye Feng, his prestige and foundation had been shaken, and he was no longer able to control the entire Southern Territory.
In addition, the situation in the southern border was very unstable during this period. First, there was the clamor and commotion of the ancient Yue Kingdom, and there were also troubles from time to time in the Tianluo Kingdom. What is even more serious is that the Brahma Kingdom, which is also a big country at the southernmost point of the southern border, has repeatedly
offend.
However, Dugu Ming, the king of the southern border, has been unable to smooth out the friction between these neighboring countries. Finally, Tianyong Pavilion decided to appoint Zhang Wenyuan. Firstly, it was to support Zhang Wenyuan's rise. Secondly, it hoped to rely on Zhang Wenyuan's power to completely eliminate the neighboring countries.
these little actions.
However, although the local dignitaries of the Southern Territory present knew the Northern King Ye Feng, they could not say that they were very respectful. After all, when Ye Feng came to the Southern Territory, he killed several Southern Territory commanders with the power of thunder. This incident left a mark in everyone's minds.
Very deep impression.
So everyone just said hello briefly and headed directly to the headquarters of the Southern Territory Base Camp under the leadership of Zhang Wenyuan. Of course, Dugu Ming, as the former king of the Southern Territory, would not come to greet him in person. In addition, his remaining confidants would naturally
He won't come either, but he is waiting in the meeting hall of the base camp, waiting for Zhang Wenyuan to come and do the handover work.
In fact, the handover work is very simple, that is, the appointment letter is read out, and then the royal order of the King of the Southern Territory is handed over. This is considered completed, and then it is a matter of how Zhang Wenyuan re-accepts his destiny and arranges personnel.
When Ye Feng re-entered the meeting hall of the southern base camp, although he was revisiting his old place, he felt very calm in his heart. Quan thought he was just a bystander, but he could see that the former Southern King Dugu Ming was not in a good mood.
, seems to be unwilling.
Seeing this, Ye Feng had to walk over and personally reached out and patted Dugu Ming on the shoulder.
Dugu Ming seemed to have noticed the presence of King Bei just now, and said in surprise: "I really didn't expect that you would come."
Ye Feng nodded slightly and said, "The main thing is to see you."
Dugu Ming seemed very happy when he heard this, and a rare smile finally appeared on his face: "Everyone has the icing on the cake, and there is no time to help when it is time. Thank you for coming to see me at this time."
Ye Feng waved his hand and said: "Why should a man be like this? In fact, you should be happy. Zhang Wenyuan is a courageous man. You can rest assured that you will leave the southern territory to him."
In fact, Ye Feng knew that what Dugu Ming was reluctant to give up was not his own throne, but the people in the Southern Territory. He was worried that the newly appointed Southern King would not be as good as him after he retired.
Dugu Ming smiled slightly and said: "Since you said this, I am really relieved. If you are free tonight, I will treat you to a drink. Although I have withdrawn, I still have a few bottles of good wine.
.”
"When an old friend invites me, I will naturally sacrifice my life to accompany you!" Ye Feng smiled faintly.
Then the appointing officer from the imperial capital read out the appointment letter. Then Duguming held a small brocade box in both hands. The brocade box contained the Nanwang Seal. Finally, the appointing officer handed the Nanwang Seal to Zhang Wenyuan.
in hand.
At this point, Zhang Wenyuan officially became the King of the Southern Territory!
But what everyone didn't expect was that as soon as Zhang Wenyuan took the Southern King's Seal, he suddenly turned his head and glanced at the people under the Grand Highness, shouting one by one: "Where is Yu Wenji, the fifth commander of the Southern Territory?"
After hearing this, an old steward from the southern border immediately stepped forward and said, "Back to the Southern King, Lord Yu Wenji, the fifth commander, has taken leave due to illness, so he is not present."
"You are really a bastard. He dares not to come when the Southern King appoints a major official. He is clearly showing contempt for the king's law and contempt for me, the new King of the South!"
After Zhang Wenyuan finished speaking, he suddenly waved his hand and shouted: "Who is it? Take Yu Wenji down immediately and kill him according to the laws of the country!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They had no idea that the new Nanwang had just taken office and had already set the fire before he even took the seat.
