Yang Ji said nothing for fear of disturbing Mr. Ouyang, but there was a curious look in his eyes.
"That place is called Demon Island. It is a place where all the fiercest, most surly, and most powerful good and evil people overseas live together. Almost all of the most ferocious people on the sea are from there. When you are sailing on the sea, as long as you avoid that
The place is relatively small, so relatively speaking, the danger will not be too great. It is completely possible to come back alive."
"Haha, you don't understand even if I talk too much. There are some things that you have to go out and experience on your own before you can understand them. Just remember, don't get close to Demon Island and the people on Demon Island easily, that's enough.
"
Mr. Ouyang said as he picked up the tea cup on the table, lowered his head and sipped gently to end the conversation.
"Thank you, senior, for your advice."
Only then did Yang Ji wake up and said gratefully.
This meeting really benefited a lot, and I learned a lot of things that I didn't know before. Coupled with what I heard from the Sea Tribe noble Beatrice, Yang Ji already had a lot of knowledge about the distant "deep sea" that he had never met before.
learn.
This will be very helpful for you to explore the ocean in the future.
"Haha, it's just a little thing. You can go to the ocean or not. But Mr. Yang, with his foresight and the favor of the royal family, will have a bright and unlimited future."
Mr. Ouyang squinted his eyes, covered his mouth with a tea cup, and said calmly.
"Hahaha……"
Yang Ji was startled, then laughed. He knew that Mr. Ouyang would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Ouyang Zhuming was classified as the loser group, and it was even more difficult to be promoted to the martial arts examination.
Mr. Ouyang definitely came here in such a hurry early in the morning not to cheer him up, but for himself.
"Second Master, there is something that needs to be troubled by the young Prince Jiuding."
Yang Ji smiled and said it bluntly.
He transformed into "Yang Ling", wore a mask and lurked around the young prince Jiuding, so he could hide the matter from others. But Yang Ji knew that he would definitely not be able to hide it from the cunning and experienced Master Ouyang.
This person's vision is too vicious. If you deny it in front of him, not only will you be unpopular, but you will be superfluous. You will fall into the inferior position and be looked down upon by others.
That day in the underground palace, Xingzang was discovered by Mr. Ouyang. Yang Ji knew that he would come to find her sooner or later. Until now, he was quite tolerant.
“There are some little things”
Hearing Yang Ji's words, Mr. Ouyang's eyes also lit up. Yang Ji's remark was obviously acknowledging that he was the most popular person around the young prince Jiuding:
"If Mr. Yang can help with this matter, the Ouyang family will definitely be grateful."
Mr. Ouyang's words were very solemn. Obviously, this "thank you" was definitely not an ordinary "thank you". But Yang Ji knew that the more solemn Mr. Ouyang said, the more difficult it would be to handle this matter.
"useless"
Yang Ji said bluntly:
"It won't take long for me to have this new identity. If the second master wants to get close to the young prince Jiuding, or get in touch with Prince Jiuding, I'm afraid I won't be able to help him."
"ah"
The light in Mr. Ouyang's eyes quickly faded, and his face could not hide his disappointment. The most popular person in Taiyuan City now is the young prince Jiuding.
Mr. Ouyang came straight to Yang Ji early in the morning. Naturally, it was not for other reasons. The only clue was Prince Jiuding.
"The whirlpool in the Imperial City is not so easy to get involved with. The aristocratic families in Taiyuanzhou Mansion all avoid the young prince Jiuding one by one. Why do the second masters do the opposite?
Aren’t you afraid that if you don’t do it right, you’ll be shattered to pieces?”
Yang Jidao.
The intention of Mr. Ouyang is actually not difficult to guess. When he contacted the young prince Jiuding in the underground palace, he gave him an extremely precious large ship. Now he came to look for him again.
It would be really strange if his intentions could not be guessed like this.
"It's a long story."
Mr. Ouyang let out a long sigh, closed his eyes, and showed deep helplessness on his face:
"The aristocratic family is going through hardships every step of the way, and we have no choice but to help others. Although we have no intention of getting involved in the disputes in the court years, we have no choice but to provoke someone in the imperial capital a few months ago."
"Buzz"
Yang Ji was shocked and looked at Mr. Ouyang in surprise. The second man of the family, who usually seemed wise and even a bit cunning, was leaning against the wall of the carriage, showing deep exhaustion.
This was the first time Yang Ji felt this feeling of oldness and fatigue in him. It was not fake at all. Just by looking at it, Yang Ji could feel it. He must have had many sleepless nights recently.
"No wonder the Ouyang family would send out a big ship at once."
Yang Ji suddenly felt enlightened.
The third son, Ouyang Zifu, went crazy and fell into a coma. The head of the Ouyang family came to the former emperor's capital early for help. Yang Ji knew all this.
But I didn't expect, judging from the words of the second master Ouyang, that when the head of the Ouyang family asked for help in the Imperial City, he accidentally offended a certain big shot, and had to seek help from the Jiuding Palace.
The previous big ship was the first big gift
The Imperial City is the center of the empire. There are countless masters and powerful people. There are also many powerful beings. Although the Ouyang Family is a big force in Zhou County, it pales in comparison to those long-standing and powerful beings.
.
Third Young Master Ouyang has gone crazy, and the head of the Ouyang family is in a very troubled mood. If he accidentally offends some force in the Imperial City, he will be in real trouble.
"During this period, I have thought about many ways. However, the other party's background is too big, and none of them will work. The survival of the family is not a trivial matter. I have thought about it for a long time, and I have no choice but to rely on Prince Jiuding."
Mr. Ouyang leaned against the wall with his eyes closed, a look of deep reluctance on his face.
Yang Ji can understand his helplessness and feels some sympathy in his heart. The disputes in the imperial court are an abyss. If he doesn't get it right, he will be shattered to pieces.
So when Yang Ji followed the young prince Jiuding, he saw that the wealthy families left a bunch of gifts, and then found various excuses to refuse.
The concern here is that once you take the risk, your body will be shattered into pieces and no bones will be left.
"Is there no other way? Is the risk too great?"
Yang Jidao.
"No more. The other party's background is too great, no less than Prince Jiuding. If you can't take refuge in Prince Jiuding, I'm afraid the end will not be much less than getting involved in court disputes, and the same will be broken into pieces."
Mr. Ouyang said tiredly:
"Prince Jiuding is also an old fox, and the aristocratic family is just a tool in their eyes. It will not be easy for him to appear for us to resolve the grudges with that man and release our brother. So I thought this matter can be dealt with slowly.
, I originally thought that you had a good relationship with the young prince Jiuding, and you wanted to use that person to gain the trust of the prince. But now it seems, alas..."
At the end of the sentence, Master Ouyang couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"I shouldn't have said these words to you. However, you are no longer an outsider. If it hadn't been for you, it was uncertain whether Zi Mansion would have woken up. However, I haven't told Zhu Ming and Zishi these words yet.
Everyone in the mansion has issued a gag order. I hope Mr. Yang can also keep this secret for me."
Mr. Ouyang said, ready to end this conversation.
"Actually... although I won't be able to stay with Young Prince Jiuding for long. But if the second master just wants to seek refuge with Prince Jiuding and gain his trust, I have a way."
Yang Ji muttered.
"ah"
Mr. Ouyang let out a low cry, opened his eyes suddenly, and looked at Yang Ji, unable to conceal his excitement:
"Mr. Yang, do you think you have a solution?"
Yang Ji hesitated for a moment and nodded:
"Prince Jiuding is in need of a group of top masters to present to Prince Zhongwu recently, and among them are many guards from Jiuding Prince's Palace. There are many children in the Ouyang Shi family. If we select those top disciples and send them to Prince Jiuding's Palace, we can go to Zhongwu with them.
If you pledge allegiance to the prince, you will not only gain the attention of Prince Jiuding, but you will also be able to find a good background for your family members in the military."
As Yang Ji spoke, he explained what he had planned for the young prince Jiuding. Giving gifts also pays attention to the method. There are too many people who send treasures to Prince Jiuding.
Although the Ouyang Family sent a large ship, it only stood out a little and made Prince Jiuding look at it, but it was not to the point of offending another big shot for the sake of the Ouyang Family.
But if he could help Prince Jiuding gain the goodwill of Marquis Zhongwu, or even gain control of the Shenwu Guards, although Yang Ji thought that was impossible, it would be completely different.
"Sending gifts" comes from the heart. If the Ouyang family can send outstanding disciples of the family to Marquis Zhongwu to fully demonstrate their intention to seek refuge, then it will be completely different with Prince Jiuding.
This is a role that cannot be replaced by any treasure or magic weapon.
Once this is done, the Ouyang family will have no other way out. Yang Ji originally did not recommend that Mr. Ouyang do this, but if the Ouyang family is indeed facing a huge danger and there is no other way to go, then this is the last resort.
suitable.
As for the military...
Rich families generally hate joining the military. This is completely different from the martial arts examination. But it depends on who you join.
A big shot like Marquis Zhongwu has extraordinary strength, and is backed by the military headquarters and supported by three major military governors. Once he gets his attention, his future is limitless.
This is a much brighter future than being granted the title of general and being a dispensable frontier official. For the Ouyang family, it is definitely not a grievance.
At the beginning, Mr. Ouyang didn't pay much attention to what Yang Ji said. But after listening to it, he became more and more energetic and excited.
The transfers in the Jiuding Prince's Mansion are extremely secretive, and it is difficult for outsiders to know. If it weren't for Yang Ji, he wouldn't even know that such a thing existed even if he were killed.
This is called "There are people in the DPRK who can do things easily." To be continued.
