The black motorcade passed through the noisy streets, drove out of the city, followed a quiet and flat private road, and arrived in front of an ancient castle with a history of hundreds of years.
The motorcade paused slightly in front of the castle. As the gate opened, the motorcade drove straight in.
The housekeeper, who was thin and wearing a tuxedo and was meticulous in every aspect, took the initiative to come over with his maid, opened the door of a car, bowed and said with a smile: "Welcome to be our guest, Mr. Wang."
A middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance but extraordinary bearing got out of the car, nodded casually and said: "I'm not a guest, I have something very important to see Carol."
carol
In continental Europe, this is a relatively unfamiliar name. Many people may know it, but when they first hear it, they need to think carefully to know who it is.
In the dark world, people are more accustomed to another name.
Rothschild's Golden Eyes.
In other words, she was the queen of the Shadow Throne.
"His Royal Highness is in a meeting, Mr. Wang"
The housekeeper was in a bit of trouble.
"The meeting can be suspended. The news I bring is worth her interrupting any meeting."
The middle-aged man walked into the castle and said in a calm voice: "Time is very tight, so"
He didn't finish his words, he just looked at the housekeeper.
The old butler looked at him seriously and studied his expression. He seemed to hesitate for a moment, nodded and said: "Please sit down, I will inform His Highness now."
The middle-aged man nodded and sat down on the sofa.
The maids brought the fruit plate and made tea to suit his taste.
He didn't even look at it, he just lit a cigarette and smoked deeply, his expression became more and more grim.
Time passes slowly.
About ten minutes later, accompanied by the sound of slight footsteps, Jin Tong's figure walked down the stairs.
"Tian Ye, what's wrong?"
Jin Tong's voice was a little confused: "What important thing do you have?"
Wang Tianye, who was deep in thought, was stunned for a moment. He raised his head and looked at Jin Tong. His eyes were obviously a little stunned: "Sister, have you regained your strength?"
He is indeed preoccupied now, and he was a little absent-minded just now, but no matter what, his strength is not fake, and he always maintains the vigilance of a half-step invincible master, but the golden pupil was destroyed by Li Tianlan during the chaos in the Snow Country
But it can appear in front of him without him noticing, which is enough to explain the problem.
Jin Tong's face was inexplicably brighter. She nodded and shook her head: "I haven't fully recovered. I'm still a little short of the peak."
The Beihai Wang family was very generous when they formed the alliance, and Rothschild naturally received a lot of benefits. The Beihai Wang family provided Jin Tong with many extremely precious medicines, which cured her after her strength was abolished.
The hidden wounds left on the body, as for the strength
Jin Tong herself couldn't tell how she recovered. She just slept for a while, and her strength unknowingly broke through the threshold of invincibility again.
Although this process is a bit weird, at least the result is good.
After Paul's death, Rothschild no longer had high-end combat effectiveness. Now that Golden Eyes has returned to the invincible state, Rothschild can at least have some confidence.
"You said there was something very important, what?"
Jin Tong did not explain his strength in detail, but asked directly.
She has a very good relationship with Wang Tianye, and in some ways, they are considered very close.
In the distant era when the Beihai Wang family ruled the dark world, Rothschild and the Beihai Wang family had a certain blood relationship. The most outstanding women in Rothschild at that time were all the ancestors of the Beihai Wang family.
A confidante, Wang Tianye can be regarded as a descendant of that lineage.
Although this blood relationship lasted for hundreds of years, it could not be further away from the current Rothschild. Although the blood relationship is far away, the relationship is not far away. The Wang family of Beihai and Rothschild have always had a good relationship, and
Wang Tianye's branch has been responsible for Beihai Wang's business in Europe most of the time. As a member of the board of directors of Beihai Wang, he can be regarded as the only spokesperson of Beihai Wang's in Europe. He is also closely related to Rothschild.
The North Sea force moves most closely.
During this period of time, with the fierce pursuit of Shengshi Fund, the connection between Rothschild and Wang Tianye has become even closer. Both parties have advanced and retreated together. Although the situation is said to be barely stable, in fact, huge losses occur every day.
The losses still left them reeling.
This so-called important news
Could it be that the Beihai Wang family has had a turning point to reverse the situation?
"I just received a call from Tang Shi."
Wang Tianye's face looked a little ugly, but more importantly, he was helpless.
"Tang Poetry"
Jin Tong pondered for a moment: "What did she say?"
Jin Tong still recognized the young woman who now controlled the economic power of the Wang family in Beihai. Although she was not old, her abilities were trustworthy.
Wang Tianye's face became increasingly helpless, with clearly visible sadness: "The Beihai Wang family has decided to compromise with Shengshi Fund. Three days later, she will personally sign an agreement with Han Xinyan in Zhongzhou, agreeing that people from the East Palace will join the Beihai Wang family's board of directors.
"
in golden pupil
With completely frozen eyes, Wang Tianye took a deep breath: "This is the decision made by Shengxiao. All the sword-wielding families support it. The situation has been decided. The only disagreement at present is the issue of shares. Shengshi Fund requires 100% of the three major groups in Beihai.
Forty-five percent of the shares, while Beihai Wang’s bottom line is 17%, but the final amount depends on the negotiations over the past few days, but the compromise decision can no longer be changed.”
Jin Tong said nothing and seemed unable to react.
"I can't stop this. This is the decision of the board of directors. I will fly back to Youzhou in an hour and a half. You have to think carefully about what Rothschild will do next."
Wang Tianye said calmly.
The power of the Beihai Wang family in Europe, as well as Rothschild, are currently the key targets of the Shengshi Fund.
Now that the Beihai Wang family has made a decision, they will naturally contact the Shengshi Fund. After the European continent loses the power of the Beihai Wang family, the power of the Shengshi Fund will be more concentrated to attack Rothschild. Wang Tianye’s reminder can be said to be
Very kind.
"Isn't she Beihai Wang? Is Shengxiao crazy?!"
Jin Tong finally reacted. She looked at Wang Tianye and said incoherently: "Are you kidding? Compromise with Shengshi Fund? At this time?"
"Do you know when this is?"
Her breathing was a little rapid: "Quick, call Tang Shi, no, call Shengxiao right away. I have received the exact news, Jiang Shangyu! Jiang Shangyu has already set off from Xingguo, and he will arrive in Europe soon, you know
what does that mean.
As long as Jiang Shangyu comes to Europe, the Shengshi Fund will be a joke. If we join forces, there is no need to compromise. We can even take over the Shengshi Fund and even the Lin Clan.
Crazy, what are you thinking about compromising at this time?
Where is the Holy Spirit? Contact him immediately."
"The patriarch is already in Youzhou."
Wang Tianye looked at Jin Tong, his eyes were a little complicated: "Calm down first. The news that Jiang Shangyu is coming to Europe is not a top secret. He is now the number one person in the dark world. There is no need to keep a low profile. He will only deliberately publicize it.
so
You are not the only one who can receive this news. In fact, the Wang family in Zhongzhou and Beihai should receive this news earlier than you."
"Then why?"
Jin Tong opened his mouth.
"I personally believe that Emperor Bingshan decided to compromise with the Eastern Palace because he received the news that Jiang Shangyu was leaving from Star Kingdom."
Wang Tianye hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "The patriarch Shengxiao arrived in Youzhou a few hours ago and entered Sanyi Hutong."
Trinity Alley.
Jin Tong seemed to understand something: "He met Li Tianlan?"
"have no idea."
Wang Tianye shook his head: "But it is obvious that whether he has seen Li Tianlan or not, at least he is guarding Li Tianlan now."
Jin Tong stopped talking.
She still didn't understand why the Beihai Wang family would choose to compromise with the East Palace at this time.
No, this is not a compromise.
Wang Shengxiao went to guard Li Tianlan, this was the most important thing.
The compromise in terms of business power is just incidental to this matter.
The Beihai Wang family wanted to cut through the mess quickly and wanted to resolve all the grudges with the Eastern Palace.
The patriarch acted as a bodyguard himself, bowed his head, retreated, compromised, and completely changed his attitude.
Is Wang Shengxiao betting that even if Li Tianlan loses his strength, it will only be temporary and that he will soon regain the strength to fight against or even suppress Jiang Shangyu?
But where is the basis?
Or maybe the Beihai Wang family doesn't want to rely on Jiang Shangyu's power and doesn't want to bow to Jiang Shangyu?
But what is the essential difference between this and bowing to Li Tianlan?
Jin Tong looked at Wang Tianye standing in front of him, his heart moved slightly, and suddenly said: "You tell me this, are you not afraid of what impact it will have on the Wang family of Beihai?"
“What impact can it have?”
Wang Tianye smiled: "You should be the one who has a headache next, and"
There was a strange look in his eyes: "I think Tang Shi wanted me to tell you the news on purpose. There is another thing I haven't thought about."
"What?"
Jin Tong cheered up and asked.
"Tang Shi told me that Shengxiao went to Youzhou, but I don't know if I heard it wrong or if she didn't understand the situation. She said that Shengxiao went to Youzhou to guard Li Tianlan because she was waiting for rain on the river."
Wang Tianye said.
Jin Tong frowned subconsciously and repeated: "Waiting for the rain on the river?"
Wang Tianye hummed.
"But waiting for Jiang Shangyu, he is not Jiang Shangyu's opponent, and why is he waiting for Jiang Shangyu in Youzhou? He is obviously on his way to Europe."
Jin Tong's voice talking to himself suddenly stopped.
Her eyes opened wide subconsciously and looked at Wang Tianye.
Wang Shengxiao was waiting for the rain on the river.
Why does he think he can wait in Youzhou until Jiang Shangyu is supposed to come to Europe?
Jiang Shangyu's best choice now is to resolve the situation in Europe first, and he has already done so.
But Wang Shengxiao returned
I chose to wait for him in Youzhou.
Wang Shengxiao is not stupid. This only shows that he thinks Jiang Shangyu cannot succeed in Europe.
Jiang Shangyu is invincible, why can't he succeed in Europe?
What resistance does he have?
There is actually resistance.
Qin Weibai!
Therefore, the change in Wang's attitude in Beihai is not a bet on whether Li Tianlan will be strong in the future, but a bet on Qin Weibai?
Did the Beihai Wang family get any news?
If Qin Weibai can block the rain on the river here, then the situation in Europe will be
Jin Tong's breathing stopped subconsciously for a moment.
Her body began to tremble, and a tingling sensation spread throughout her body almost in the blink of an eye.
Qin Weibai can block the rain on the river.
Regardless of whether this is the truth or not, at least according to Beihai Wang's analysis, this is the truth.
Because only if Qin Weibai defeated Jiang Shangyu here, could the other party go to Youzhou to face Wang Shengxiao.
Tang Shi asked Wang Tianye to tell her the news deliberately, which was tantamount to asking her whether she should continue to bow her head and compromise with the Beihai Wang family and stand in the East Palace camp, or join the Continental Alliance and bow to Jiang Shangyu.
Jin Tong took a deep breath. She did not give Wang Tianye a clear answer, but subconsciously turned around and wanted to go upstairs.
What the old housekeeper told Wang Tianye at first was not an excuse.
Jin Tong was indeed attending an extremely important meeting.
This was a meeting attended by representatives from every member of the Continental Union.
There are still two hours before Jiang Shangyu reaches Europe, or to be precise, the foggy city.
All European forces trying to fight against the Eastern Palace have already participated.
When the butler interrupted the meeting, Jin Tong was already preparing to formally express his position.
This interruption was very timely.
Jin Tong can completely adjust his attitude when he goes back.
Follow the Beihai Wang family? The situation is unclear now, and she doesn't dare to gamble with the family's fate.
Follow the Continental Alliance? But Beihai Wang's attitude sounded the alarm for her.
Her next statement at the meeting must be more conservative.
She turned around, but her steps paused slightly.
Then she turned her body back and looked out the door, her eyes becoming a little confused.
Wang Tianye was also stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes, showing a look of surprise.
Almost at the same time.
Inside and outside the castle.
All the security guards, maids, and housekeepers stopped what they were doing at the same time.
The air around me seemed to have become sweeter.
Faintly, as if from an extremely distant place, someone was singing softly in the distance, carrying the most perfect melody, and then spread to the entire world.
Ethereal, clear, soft and silent, it attracts everyone's consciousness.
The melody is becoming clearer.
Jin Tong listened quietly, this was her favorite piece of music.
The voice echoed gracefully in the sky and on the earth, becoming increasingly clear.
"You like this song too?"
Jin Tong looked at the intoxicated Wang Tianye with some doubts.
"Song of the North Sea"
Wang Tianye's voice was a little slow, and he smiled and said: "I'm from Beihai, how could I not like it?"
Song of the North Sea?
Jin Tong was stunned for a moment, what the hell kind of song of the North Sea is this?
What she heard was obviously pure music.
Why are there differences between what I heard and what Wang Tianye heard?
Jin Tong subconsciously looked at a maid beside him and asked: "What did you hear?"
The maid said nothing, her expression became more and more intoxicated.
A huge panic exploded in Jin Tong's mind for no reason.
She looked at the housekeeper: "What did you hear?"
The butler also didn't answer.
Jin Tong rushed directly to her side, holding his collar: "Answer me."
The housekeeper opened his eyes and slowly glanced at Jin Tong.
The next moment, he stretched out his hand, took away Jin Tong's palm little by little, and walked towards the door.
The surrounding maids also followed the butler out of the door.
Jin Tong looked at this scene in disbelief. She watched the housekeeper and the maids go out. It took a long time for her to react, and she rushed to the door.
Inside the castle, security guards, gardeners, maids, chefs, one by one, everyone in the castle began to appear.
They kept their intoxicated expressions, slowly gathered together, slowly walked out of the castle gate, and slowly walked towards the direction of Fog City.
slowly, slowly
The low singing voice in my ears is still echoing, becoming more distant and melodious.
Footsteps sounded behind Jin Tong.
Jin Tong turned around stiffly, and in her sight, Wang Tianye also closed his eyes.
His body was extremely stiff, but his steps were exactly the same as everyone else's.
He completely ignored Jin Tong, and walked out of the castle gate little by little, embarking on the road to the foggy city.
