Leng Guhong's study was very familiar to Leng Yi after he came here countless times. He still remembers the first time he opened his eyes, it was here. However, the study at that time was a shabby room. After reconstruction,
There is a hint of grandeur in the simplicity, which is in line with the status of the imperial prime minister.
It wasn't until it was time to turn on the lights that Leng Guhong came back slowly, pushed open the study room, and at first glance he found a small figure lying on the seat where he was sitting.
"Mingyuan?"
The sound of the door opening awakened Leng Yi. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked up. It was completely dark outside the window.
"Why are you back so late today?"
He asked. Generally speaking, Leng Guhong would come back when it was getting dark, but today it was much later.
"A severe drought occurred in Korla Province, and a large area of crops failed to harvest. Along the more than 800-mile stretch between Seiya, the capital of the province, and Halemi, the capital of Mark Province, there were starvation and mourning everywhere. This matter,
It has just been spread back to the imperial capital."
Leng Yi nodded. Korla is connected to Mark Province, which are the two richest provinces in the empire. Seiya and Halemi are also two of the four super cities in the empire. Now that there is a drought there, the empire will naturally be shaken.
The state machinery will also be operational as soon as possible.
"Get some rest first. Don't stay up late tonight. I have something to discuss with you." Seeing Leng Guhong's haggard face, Leng Yi couldn't bear it and gave up his seat, then said.
"Oh? You actually have something to discuss with me. This is not your style, Mingyuan." Leng Guhong smiled, then sat down and leaned on the back of the chair to stretch his body. The drought came so suddenly. The entire empire was caught off guard.
After a busy day, he was indeed a little tired. Thinking that there were tens of thousands of victims sleeping in the wilderness thousands of miles away, Leng Guhong couldn't sleep all night.
Over the years, the relationship between father and son has been relatively harmonious, and I have never regarded this son as a child. Everything is up to him. As a result, the father and son get along extremely friendly, but this friendship is vaguely mixed with
There is not a trace of intimacy between them, but it is not as close as ordinary people's father and son appear to be.
"No way." Leng Yi scratched his head and said with some embarrassment. "You are busy with national affairs all day long, but you are not willing to take some time to care about our family. After the expansion of Leng Mansion, the number of people suddenly increased.
Quite a few, the management seems to be stretched thin, I am here today just hoping that you can hand over the management of the Leng family to me."
Leng Guhong looked at his son blankly, then took a long breath, and slowly exhaled it, expelling the turbid air accumulated in his chest due to the sudden drought, and closed his eyes comfortably. Low and soothing
The voice came out slowly:
"Mingyuan, what you mean is that you are planning to build the Leng family into an aristocratic family? With its own strength and industry?"
"There is indeed such a plan." Leng Yi did not deny it. "The forces in the imperial capital are intertwined. If our Leng family did not have our own strength, it would be difficult for us to gain a foothold. With the emperor's favor, you can stay in the position of prime minister for a long time. But eventually
When you retire one day, I hope that the Leng family can become a happy place for you to enjoy your old age. With children and grandchildren in your house, you can enjoy family happiness and stay away from the troubles of the world."
Leng Yi had to admit that he had lied. But his words were not false, especially after he noticed that Leng Guhong's body was getting thinner and seemed to be quite weak, a trace of it would appear in his heart.
of pain.
Blood is thicker than water, the feeling of blood connection is like this.
Perhaps it was Leng Yi's words that touched Leng Guhong. He couldn't help but laugh, and then said:
"Okay! Okay! There are only you and me in the Leng family. I have no objection to leaving it to you. From now on, Mingyuan, you will be the person in charge of the Leng family."…
It was Leng Yi's turn to be stunned. He never expected that Leng Guhong would agree to him so easily. You know, he is only ten years old. The person in charge of the Leng family is tantamount to admitting that he has become Leng Yi in disguise.
The head of the family!
The head of the family is only ten years old! It’s unbelievable to say the least. It’s probably the only one like this in the mainland.
"I said, this is too childish." Leng Yi couldn't believe it, Leng Guhong's happiness was beyond his expectation.
"There is no such thing as child's play. I can take on the responsibility of a country. If you can't even take on the responsibility of a small Leng family, don't say that you are my son, Leng Guhong!"
At this moment, Leng Yi truly understood how courageous his cheap father was!
When he walked out of the study, Leng Yi was still in a daze. Before leaving, Leng Guhong's half-smiling face appeared in his mind, making him feel that his father was very unpredictable.
"Isn't this really the result I want? When did I become as worried about gains and losses as I am now?" Leng Yi laughed at himself, as if he had regained his confidence. His waist straightened in an instant, and his eyes became sharp, belonging to the previous life.
Leng Yi's domineering and domineering attitude appeared in Leng Yi again.
The next day, a notice that shocked the entire continent was posted on the door of Leng Mansion:
Are you still worried about avoiding the pursuit of your enemies? Are you still in pain because you have nowhere to stay? Are you still depressed and sighing because you have nowhere to display your ambitions? Come be my follower! Leng Jiafang
The hut is small and I can't afford to recruit powerful worshipers. I am now alone. No one goes out on the streets to highlight my dignity. I have no one to help me with my daily necessities. I regret it! Yesterday while playing chess, I accidentally realized that in my Haotian
Under the glory of the Ninth Emperor, the world is at peace, and talents such as experts and eccentrics should not be buried. I am willing to do my best to create a prosperous situation in Haotian with you.
Note: I do not pay salary or benefits. Those who are willing to come here, and those who are unwilling to stay away.
Leng Yi, the first generation head of the Leng family, is waiting for your arrival.
This revelation, like a thunder, suddenly sounded on the Haotian Continent, flew out of the Emperor City in a short time, and lingered over the eight major provinces of the empire. For a while, all the people talking in the streets were this message from the head of the Leng family.
Notice!
Tiandi City, Du Family.
Du Wanhao curled up in the recliner. It was hard to imagine how his burly figure could fully use this recliner. This was a secret room in the back hall of the Du family, and only the head of the family could enter.
Not far in front of him, there was a figure that almost blended into the surrounding darkness. He was standing quietly. Just now, it was he who reported the news of the Leng family's announcement to Du Wanhao.
At this moment, Du Wanhao's brows furrowed deeply, and an unprepared feeling of fear and uneasiness arose in his heart. It lasted for a long time.
"Say the final signature again!" Du Wanhao's deep voice sounded in the darkness, sounding calm.
"Leng Yi, the first generation head of the Leng family!"
The frown on his face deepened, and Du Wanhao was confused: "Leng Guhong is not dead, so how could it be that young boy's turn to be the head of the Leng family?"
Then, he suddenly realized: "That's right! With Leng Guhong's temperament, he will not cultivate his own influence in the Leng family. No wonder that boy said that the first generation head of the family is probably self-proclaimed."
At this time, the dark shadow suddenly interrupted: "I don't agree, does my son dare to do this?"
Du Wanhao was shocked, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "You mean, Leng Guhong had already planned it? But, this is not in line with his character..."
"Don't underestimate the people of the world! Leng Guhong can be the prime minister of a country. Do you believe that he has no ambitions for the city? He was a top student in the Haotian Divine Mansion and made friends all over the world. How could such a person not leave any backup plan?
? Along the way, I have always firmly believed that a person’s character is what kind of person he is. It is just what he deliberately shows. No one can understand his true heart! Leng Guhong is such a person.
.”…
Du Wanhao nodded silently and fell into deep thought. A strange silence formed between the two...
At the same time, in a deep house in the southwest corner of Tiandi City, a few lights were dancing, and two people in the house were having a heated discussion.
"Hao Guang, the Leng family, which has been dormant for many years, made such a big move today. It will definitely not be as simple as recruiting a few people. In my opinion, this is a signal that the Leng family is going to become a famous family!"
The speaker was about forty years old, with a delicately trimmed beard, a sharp look in his steady eyes, and an absolute sense of confidence in his movements.
Sitting opposite him was a middle-aged man of the same age, wearing a black robe, with a clean face and small eyes. When he smiled, he probably couldn't see his eyes.
This middle-aged man with small eyes named Hao Guang had absolutely no smile at the moment, and his stern face showed a murderous look. He shook his head and said in disapproval: "Brother, Leng Guhong is not such a person! I understand him.
…”
"You understand him!" An unquestioning voice interrupted his words, and then he heard: "Meng Lixing also said that he understood him. In the end, the Meng family was uprooted by him, two hundred and forty-eight
Not even one of them, including the head of the family, Meng Lixing, is left! Leng Guhong has a very deep city, which can be said to be unfathomable. For many years, he was the only one in the Leng family, so it was not a concern. It was a pity that an extra person appeared inexplicably ten years ago.
Son, now, Leng Guhong’s son has become the first generation head of the Leng family. What can a ten-year-old child do? It’s not the old guy Leng Guhong who is causing trouble behind this!”
"According to Big Brother, what is Leng Guhong doing? What does it mean to push a ten-year-old child to the forefront?"
After a long, long time, the voice from before sounded: "It's hard to say, it's hard to say!"
Not only these two families, but all the powerful families in Tiandi City are discussing this notice. Without exception, these people all think that Leng Guhong is going to make a big move next. Even Emperor Haotian also thinks so.
, the scruples in my heart towards the Leng family have deepened.
They would not have thought that such a high-profile and unobtrusive matter was actually done by Leng Yi, a child of only ten years old. Even Leng Guhong was surprised when he saw this notice for the first time.
However, since he had already let the words out, he naturally would not take them back, so he let Leng Yi do it.
So, the day after the notice was posted, Leng Yi ordered someone to prepare a small table at the entrance of Leng's house, with pens, ink, paper and inkstones, a chair comfortable enough for him to fall asleep, and two
A soldier and a maid.
The maid is of course Xiao Lu, and the two soldiers are Shu Qing Tiening. Nowadays, only the three of them can be regarded as direct descendants of the Leng Mansion.
"Master, will anyone come?" Xiao Lu wondered. Ten years have passed and she is now in her mid-twenties. Three years ago she married a simple and honest tofu shop owner, but she still refused to leave the Leng family.
Still taking care of the daily life of Leng Guhong and his son.
"Who knows! Just wait." Leng Yi put his feet up on the table, lying comfortably on the chair, holding a copy of "Tian Yuan Yi Dao" in his hand. He was reading it with gusto. Suddenly, Xiao Lu was like this
When asked, he raised his head and said casually.
Shu Qing came over carefully and whispered: "It's okay to wait for me here. But there's no need to be so high-profile. Look at the people below, they are all whispering, but no one dares to come up."
I saw a dark crowd of people under the steps of Leng Mansion, whispering to each other, but no one came over.
Why? Because not far from the table where Leng Yi and the four of them were, there was a high pole with a white line hanging down. There were a few words written on it: "No need in the primitive world. The universe is too bad, Xuanhuang is reluctant, the heaven and the earth are just right."
The cultivation levels of the Haotian Continent are divided into eight realms: heaven, earth, black, yellow, and the universe. The heaven level is the best, and the yellow level is the worst. This time for the recruitment of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Leng Yi has no intention of recruiting those cats and dogs. Only those who have the ability
Only the strength that catches his eye can you enter the Leng family.
However, below the worst yellow level, there is a well-known realm called the innate realm. Further down, there is the acquired realm, where ordinary warriors have a lifetime goal of breaking through the innate realm.
In other words, the Leng family came here just to recruit top experts!
And this is the real reason why Lengfu’s recruitment shocked the entire continent!
As soon as the news was released, the warriors who came here with admiration all cursed each other. An innate realm blocked everyone's path, and those of them who were at the seventh level and sixth level of the day after tomorrow could only stare.
At the gate, Leng Yi and the four of them chatted one after another. The crowd in front of the Leng Mansion gathered and dispersed, but no one came up to say a word.
There was such an impulsive young man who was scolded by several elders for his acquired fourth-level strength and left in dismay. He only had time to take two or three steps before he was dragged away by his relatives and friends.
By the third day, Xiao Lu, Shu Qing, and Tie Ning also learned the lesson. Each of them moved a chair and sat in front of the gate, forming a row with Leng Yi. Tie Ning was taking a nap while holding a broad sword.
Shu Qing crossed her legs and was picking out her ears. Xiao Lu touched her belly from time to time, with a motherly glow on her face. Just yesterday, she was too lazy to muster any strength, so she had to go to the doctor. The doctor told her that she was pregnant.
.Leng Yi is still reading "Tian Yuan Yi Dao" happily.
More and more people came here because of Leng Yi's notice without any detailed requirements. They came all the way here and were furious when they saw Bai Lian. But no matter what,
Qi, this is the palace of the Prime Minister of the Empire. Everyone respects the conscientious Prime Minister. Naturally, no one directly comes to Leng Yi to argue with his young master. They have no choice but to consider themselves unlucky and return dejectedly.
Now, everyone understands in their hearts that this is not recruiting servants at all, but worship!
Those who are powerful, are guests of a family, and have power only under the head of the family!
The sun gradually became warmer, and one day was about to pass. For four days, Leng Mansion did not recruit even a single person. Shu Qing stood up, patted his butt, and walked over to put away the Bai Lian who had driven everyone away.
"Wait! Wait!"
The crowd gradually dispersed, and the sudden sound sounded very clear. Shu Qing looked towards the direction of the sound, and saw a lean man trotting towards him.
It's said to be running, but anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance that this is a very clever movement. The legs are dropped together at an extremely fast speed. While maintaining great flexibility, it also has a good speed. It was still far away from a hundred meters ago.
Meters away, it stopped in front of me in the blink of an eye.
The person who came had a smile on his face, cupped his hands towards Shu Qing and said: "This brother, with a purple light lingering above his head, auspicious aura filling the sky, a dragon walking like a tiger, and the air of a general! Oops, it's incredible, he will surely reach a high position in the future!
"
Leng Yi and the other two people also came out of their own contemplation. At first sight, they were shocked to death by the strange appearance of the visitor. They saw that he had a thick beard, and it was unclear how long he had not washed his face. He had a square
The cloth wraps up the entire hair and twists it into a bun shape. Two long sword-head ribbons are tied around the back of the head. When walking, the movement is graceful and graceful, making it look free and easy.
He was wearing a green robe, tightly wrapped around his body, and obvious muscle bulges could be seen on his chest, waist and abdomen. The pair of black and white Shifang shoes he wore on his feet were obviously oversized.
"Second goods!"
Leng Yi came to a conclusion, and then immersed himself in the book, but did not drive him away.
Because, this guy who looks so pretentious and awkward, who speaks words that make people want to rush up and beat him up, actually has a yellow level cultivation, and he is not even a junior yellow level.
Shu Qing opened his eyes wide and touched the top of his head very innocently. There was no feeling of purple light rising to the sky. Then he groaned heavily and pulled Bai Lian, who was about five feet long, stretched out his big hand like a cattail leaf fan and grabbed the visitor's arm.
The collar brought Bai Lian in front of him and said horizontally: "You, okay?"
"No problem! Mr. Xiaoyao, a poor Taoist, lives in Luoshui and has a world-level cultivation. Hehe." Mr. Xiaoyao said with a naive smile.
"Young Master Xiaoyao?!"
Everyone was furious after hearing this. Leng Yi rolled his eyelids and said: "I said Mr. Xiaoyao, if you don't fish by the Luoshui River, why are you here in Tiandi City?"
Focusing on Leng Yi, Mr. Xiaoyao's eyes immediately lit up, and he said excitedly: "Oh, little brother! You have a full sky and a vast land, and you are a unique destiny! Are you interested in joining?
My Xiaoyaomen?"
As he spoke, he held his head high and walked "coolly" for several laps.
Leng Yi looked at this man who was obviously an orangutan but insisted on dressing up as a Taoist priest and claiming to be a free young man. His mind was filled with dark thoughts.
"This is my young master, the first generation head of the Leng family. If you, a sour Taoist priest, are not here to apply, get out of here as soon as possible!" Tie Ning had a stern face and slapped his broad sword heavily on the fragile table.
Something about this Mr. Xiaoyao made him have the urge to spit out his overnight meal.
Young Master Xiaoyao was stunned, staring at this little guy who was a little over one meter, his eyes as big as a bull's eye: "Are you the head of the Leng family, Leng Yi?"
"That's me." Leng Yi said calmly. Then he changed the subject and asked: "Who asked you to dress like this and come to my place to be embarrassed?!"
