The clan elders could not help but lean forward slightly, wanting to hear more clearly. Their reactions were surprisingly unanimous, and they all thought they had heard wrongly.
A first-class prince?
You must know that Jiang Feng is so talented and has such strong control over Jiang Han, but he can only compete for the position of a second-rank prince.
Ranking fourteenth among the one hundred and eight princes in the country, this is almost the limit of the Jiang family.
These clan elders all have to admit that Jiang Feng has contributed a lot to the development of the Jiang family to this point. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the biggest contributor in the history of the Jiang family.
In this Qianlong Trial, their highest expectation for Jiang Chen is to keep his existing position. Even if the ranking drops a few places, it is not bad if he does not lose the title of a second-grade prince.
However, based on Jiang Chen's consistent performance, they all know that this is all a luxury hope. Let alone Jiang Chen's position as a second-rank prince, I am afraid that whether the Jiang family can keep this princely order is a big problem.
After all, Jiang Chen's reputation has always been really bad.
However, things in the world are so unpredictable.
Just when they thought Jiang Chen couldn't do it and had already given up, Jiang Chen suddenly announced that he was competing for the first-rank prince seat.
Moreover, when he came back this time, he was already on his second first-grade mission.
what does that mean?
This means that Jiang Chen has completed a first-grade mission!
First-level tasks correspond to first-level princes.
If you can complete a first-level mission, even just one, how can you be considered an ordinary person?
Qianlong Trial is not a game, the rules are very cruel. The tasks of each level are strictly divided, and no one can take advantage of them.
Jiang Chen has actually completed a first-grade mission!
There was no need to brag or show off. Jiang Chen just raised his glass and explained everything clearly.
If these old guys don't even have this understanding, then it's not them who have to consider whether to support Jiang Chen, but Jiang Chen who has to consider whether he likes them!
"First-class princes, first-class missions..." Jiang Tong couldn't help but muttered, and suddenly, a light of surprise shot out in his messy eyes, "Chen'er, you mean, you are attacking the first-class princes? Moreover, you
Have you completed the first mission?”
"Yes, this second task requires quite a lot of connections, and it will also require the connections and face of the senior family members."
Jiang Chen was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and there was no hint of showing off in his tone. This matter was indeed not worth showing off to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Zheng, on the other hand, couldn't help but say while pouring the wine: "We have been separated for three days, so we should look at each other with admiration. Our young marquis is now a prominent figure in the royal capital. He is also a frequent visitor to the palace compound. And the Medicine Master's Hall is so smart.
The pharmaceutical giant also wants to curry favor with our young prince."
There were no outsiders here, so Jiang Zheng couldn't help but talk a few more words. He really couldn't hold it in anymore. Ever since he followed Jiang Chen, he had been ignored by others, and finally found a chance to be proud and proud, without showing off within the family.
Who else can I show off to?
A frequent visitor to the palace compound?
Does Medicine Master Hall want to fawn over the young marquis?
What did you say? Not to mention Jiang Tong in a daze, even the clan elders were inexplicably surprised and took a breath of cold air. They were all a little restless in their seats, as if there was a light on their backs.
Jiang Chen, on the other hand, smiled lightly and said, "Jiang Zheng, don't keep talking about these little things. Clan elders, we have a big gathering of the tribe tomorrow, so I hope you all can help."
Naxi was the oldest and the one with the quickest reaction. He quickly smiled and said: "My Jiang family has such a genius as the young marquis. If Jiang Zheng didn't tell me, we old immortals might not even know about it. Haha, the ancestors of the Jiang family are listed in the list.
Your Majesty, given a genius like the young marquis, my Jiang family will surely make great progress and make further progress. Even if I work hard, I still have to use my remaining energy. Tomorrow the tribe will gather, my old man
Definitely go!”
"Go! Of course I will go! My Jiang family rules Jiang Hanhou and we should unite as one. Otherwise, these tribes really think that our Jiang family is easy to bully."
"Well, we can't let a thorn like Jing Man appear in our territory again!"
The elders of the clan expressed their opinions one after another, and they all cooperated as much as they wanted. These people have matured with age, and it is natural to see that the changes in Jiang Chen's body are definitely not fake.
Moreover, it is absolutely impossible for Jiang Chen to lie about the Qianlong Trial.
Even these clan elders couldn't help but think: "Could it be that Jiang Chen, who has been a playboy since childhood, is pretending to deceive the outside world? His ambition is directly aimed at the first-class princes?"
Almost all the clan elders had the same thought. When they looked at Jiang Chen, their eyes became different. Instead of relying on their elders to show off, they became more respectful and humble.
In this way, everyone will be happy and satisfied with the banquet.
After all, Jiang Chen is powerful, and the clan elders love to see it. Only with strong heirs and powerful strength can a stronger wealthy family be supported.
…
Because he was happy, Mr. Xi actually drank some wine, and returned home feeling half drunk.
"Grandpa, I will go shopping with Xiaoqian tomorrow. There will be a tribal gathering, so I won't go."
"Dad, I'm going to buy some elixirs tomorrow. I don't want to go to the big gathering either."
"Grandpa, tomorrow I will..."
Snapped!
Mr. Xi slapped his palm heavily on the table, and his long beard trembled with anger.
The old man was originally in high spirits, but as soon as he sat down, so many people came to ask for leave. They all declined, and they obviously didn't care about the big gathering tomorrow.
How could he not be angry?
"Who doesn't want to go? Who doesn't fucking want to go? I'll break his legs!" Xi Laozhen got angry and pointed angrily at a middle-aged man with his halberd finger, "Jiang Xiong, you are my son, if you say another word about not going,
Try it? Purchase elixir? Don’t think I don’t know that you raised a little one in Qinghua Hutong and go there to fool around every day!”
"Also, Jiang He! You are my direct grandson, do you have any potential? You are young and you are pestering a little girl every day, do you still have any ambition?"
"And you, Li You, you are my grandson. If you have no sense of loyalty to the Jiang family, why are you staying in my Jiang family?"
The old man was swollen and glaring, scolding him so much that he didn't know where to direct his eyes.
"Dad!" Mr. Xi's son Jiang Xiong was a little embarrassed.
"Don't talk nonsense to me, you have to go tomorrow. And, starting from tomorrow, you will solve all your troubles for me. As a descendant of the Jiang family and a clan member of the Hou family, if you can't solve the family's problems, what should you do?
?”
Mr. Xi is righteous and awe-inspiring.
This made everyone present confused. They were usually so casual, and the old man didn't object.
What happened to the old man today? Why did his mood change completely after a drinking session? Could it be that Jiang Chen poured some kind of ecstasy soup into his mouth?
Jiang Xiong asked timidly: "Dad, it's not like you don't know that our Jiang family can't keep the order of the princes. Even if you say so much, it's hard to stop this trend. Didn't you say that you have looked away a long time ago?
?”
"Shit! When did I say such a thing?" Xi Lao denied, "You guys remember, our Jiang family can not only keep the order of princes, but we may also go one step further and be promoted to the first rank of princes.
"
When Mr. Xi said this, his tone was slightly excited.
The first-level princes are completely different from the princes of other levels.
The first-rank princes themselves have the power to enfeoff, and then all the children of the entire family can entrust their territories and spread their branches!
The wealth and honor then will be completely different from what it is now.
"What? A first-class prince? Dad, you don't know how to drink and get confused, right?" Jiang Xiong couldn't help but want to laugh.
Snapped!
Mr. Xi gave him a big slap in the face, and stood up suddenly: "You are a bastard who forgets to eat but not to fight! I remind you for the last time that you must go to the big party tomorrow. Moreover, you must be respectful in front of the young Marquis.
.If you offend the young Marquis, I can’t save you!"
"And each of you, how are you behaved? Look down on the young marquis? Do you think he is a dandy? Shit! He is pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, hiding his strength and paralyzing his opponent! This time the young marquis challenges the first-class princes, and,
He has completed his first first-level mission, killing the notorious lecherous lotus collector in Tianhu!"
"What?" Jiang Xiong was stunned, covering his face with his hands and losing all his temper.
Kill the lewd lotus collector!
Although the Tianhu Territory is far away from here, there is common information among all the territories. The bad reputation of this lotus picker is also quite popular in Jiang Han Territory.
According to legend, this lotus picker's personal cultivation level is between the eight meridians and the nine meridians, and he is good at using evil poisons. He is also good at light skills and cunning, making him extremely difficult to deal with.
Such a flower-picking thief was actually beheaded by the young marquis?
Moreover, it only took less than a month from receiving the task to completing it?
"Everyone, go back and think about it! If you don't want to hang out, get out of this house as soon as possible. If you still want to hang out, cheer up for me. Take good care of the little marquis!" Mr. Xi said angrily.
He left these words and walked straight away.
Almost at the same time, similar scenes were constantly playing out in the homes of several other tribes.
Without exception, those who were passive and wanted to be lazy were scolded severely by clan elders, and some were even beaten severely like Jiang Xiong.
The next morning, the atmosphere of the entire Jiang family suddenly changed drastically. A family that was originally like scattered sand suddenly seemed to be twisted together by an invisible rope.
Those who had been lazy and sleeping, and those who had gone out early to fool around, surprisingly, all appeared in the core of the Hou Mansion, and each one was in high spirits and dressed like a dog.
Seeing Jiang Zheng coming out, some clever people took the first step to rush forward and greeted with a smile: "Jiang Zheng, has the young Marquis gotten up?"
"Get up? Mr. Marquis gets up at three o'clock every day to practice. You asked him whether he got up or not?"
"Oh, oh, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue! Sorry, rude!"
At this time, Jiang Chen had already walked out and said with a smile: "Everyone is here, almost. The tribal forces will be here soon, right?"
