After leaving the imperial city, Jiang Li did not return to Tianxuan's mansion immediately, but went to another place.

——The clan of the Jiang family.

The mansions are scattered and orderly occupying about 5% of the upper city area, and you can even see palaces near the center.

In the capital of the gods, there are only two places with palaces, one is the imperial city, and the other is the Jiang family's clan.

Such regulations are Jiang's signature card.

It is precisely because of the existence of the palace that no one dared to occupy the Jiang clan's territory after everyone left. Otherwise, even if the head of the Jiang clan might come back, it would be inevitable for someone to become thief.

Four years later, the former clan land has become desolate, and vines and other plants can be seen growing wantonly on the high walls of many mansions.

Jiang Li walked all the way and didn't hear anyone's voice until he approached the central area.

Those were the Jiang clan members who had just arrived in the divine capital yesterday, and were brought here from their ancestral land by their clan elders. Prior to this, although the clan elders and the others had already set off from their ancestral homeland in Yongzhou and notified the divine capital of the Jiang clan’s return, in fact,

They are always on the road.

It wasn't until Jiang Sikong succeeded in taking over the government that these Jiang clan members returned to the divine capital under the protection of Elder Yuheng.

Jiang Li came to one of the palaces and released a trace of Qi.

The palace in front of you is solemn and solemn, with obvious traces of time, and its appearance is almost the same as Lieshan Palace in the ancestral home of the Jiang family.

It is also the Lieshan Hall, the Lieshan Hall of the main family of the Jiang family in the divine capital.

Every year, the head of the Jiang family will worship their ancestors here, and the head of the Jiang family will also receive the head of the branch family in the front hall. It can be said that this is the important place of the Jiang family. In addition, the top brass of the Jiang family are all appointed to open mansions.

The powerful head of the family gave him an official position, and the entire Jiang family was like a small court. It is not an exaggeration to say that Lieshan Palace is a small Ziwei Palace.

Not long after Jiang Li released his Qi machine, an old man walked out of the palace quickly and saluted Jiang Li respectfully, "I've met the master of the family."

He is the clan elder who returned from his ancestral land.

"The clan elder not only stole the servant's job, he also worked part-time as a receptionist." Jiang Li looked at the old man and joked with a smile.

The old man was wearing simple clothes, and dust could be seen in every detail. It was obvious that he had started cleaning the house before, and had even just stopped. After all, it had been four years, and it was not a paradise. There was no way to maintain the formation, so there would naturally be a lot of dust.

The clan elder laughed and said: "It's good to move the old bones to prevent them from getting rusty. Besides, there are only about ten people from the clan who came back with us. It is not easy to clean Lieshan Palace and other auxiliary halls as soon as possible."

The clan elder's face was glowing, and his mental state was no less than that of the young man. It was obvious that Jiang's greatness once again made him very excited.

As he spoke, he led the way and led Jiang Li into the palace, "I have sent Qing Ji to send a message to ask people from the ancestral land to come as soon as possible. At the latest, within a month, the clan land will be lively again.

Already."

"There are also those brats like Lu Wangji and Jiang Yang. They participated in the battle to pacify the Taiping Religion, and they all made great contributions. They can justifiably be recruited as officials by the head of the family, or sent to the army to find a position. I, Jiang

The clan was broken, then established, and then rose again."

When talking about the excitement, the elder's smile could not be concealed.

"That's right, we still need to tidy up the owner's mansion so that the owner can move in."

"It's not busy. I live with the master now so that I can serve him nearby," Jiang Li stopped him. "And it would seem cold to leave in such a hurry just after becoming Sikong."

Just kidding, there are masters and apprentices Tianxuan and Gongsun Qingyue over there, what's going on here?

Jiang Li moved here because he lost his mind.

"What the head of the family said is reasonable. Leaving as soon as the situation is strong would be a sign of gain."

The clan elder frowned and said: "Moreover, this will also make the Gongsun family jealous. Then the family head will be wronged, so we have to wait for a while."

"No grievance, no grievance." Jiang Li waved his hands repeatedly.

The clan elder thought that Jiang Li, with his dignity as the head of the Jiang family, gave Tianxuan the front and rear, and felt aggrieved to be called a soft-boiled son-in-law. But he didn't know how happy Jiang Li was.

Such grievances come as many times as they come.

"One more thing, the head of the family, Yangzhou Zhu Hui'an has been waiting for a visit for half an hour." The clan elder said again.

With that said, he led Jiang Li out of the main hall of Lieshan Hall and into a reception room in the side hall.

In the room that had been cleaned, Zhu Hui'an was sitting in the guest chair. When he saw Jiang Li arriving, he immediately stood up and saluted, "Jiang Sikong, it's been a long time."

Jiang Li's eyes moved slightly and he returned the greeting: "Long time no see, Mr. Hui'an."

With that said, he motioned to the clan elder to go first, and then took the initiative to sit down at the main seat.

Zhu Huian did not show any politeness and took his seat again.

Jiang Li looked at Zhu Hui'an and said with a smile: "Mr. Hui'an is really good at predicting things. He could guess that Gu Hui would come to the Jiang clan first."

The transition from self-proclaimed "I" to "lonely" has been quite smooth. Jiang Li has always been very adaptable and has been able to firmly grasp the tone of Sangong and the head of the Jiang family.

However, in Zhu Hui'an's view, although Jiang Li is already considered a loner, he does not seem to care too much about his current power and position.

"Actually, yesterday, when Sikong defeated the Yinlu Division and the Jiang family entered the capital, Zhu had already followed him here to see it, but he didn't see Sikong coming."

Zhu Hui'an said: "Today Sikong went to court. Zhu judged that Sikong was about to arrive, so he visited first and waited for Sikong. However, Zhu still calculated wrongly and guessed the time much earlier than the actual time of Sikong's arrival."

"Sikong... doesn't seem to care about Jiang's power."

According to the normal time, Jiang Li should have arrived two quarters of an hour earlier. Now that he, Jiang Li, is in power, and the opponents in the court have temporarily ceased their activities, the court meeting will naturally not be delayed, even if it is the time to meet with Hefeng Manlou.

It's about two quarters of an hour.

The difference can only show that these powers do not actually occupy much place in Jiang Li's heart.

Although he single-handedly facilitated the Jiang family's comeback, judging from his appearance, he had no intention of going any further.

This is not good news for Zhu Huian.

"Compared with power, Gu still prefers to attribute great power to himself," Jiang Li said with a smile, "Now that Gu is in the stage of improvement, you can play with the open and secret fights in the court in your free time to adjust your mood. You should not take it too seriously.

.When you become a third-grade person, there will be no need to fight, and power will come to you."

Zhu Huian secretly said that indeed, the suspicion in his heart was confirmed, but there was no sense of despair.

Just listen to him say: "But with the help of power and the power to surrender, the improvement of strength will be faster. As the saying goes, a fence has three stakes, and a hero has three gangs. Some trivial matters do not need to be done by Sikong himself. They can be left to the people below.

That’s what people are.”

Zhu Hui'an did not intend to change Jiang Li's will and let him change his track and start fighting for power. He was not Jiang Li's elder, and he may not even be close to him, so he was not qualified to teach Jiang Li.

Therefore, Zhu Huian changed his words and talked about the benefits of power and the convenience of power.

"Common things in the world are unavoidable even for the strongest in the world. If someone can help, Sikong can be cleansed." Zhu Hui'an continued.

"oh?"

Jiang Li showed a hint of interest, "Like Mr. Hui'an?"

"For example, below." Zhu Huian nodded.

To put it in elegant terms, this is a self-recommendation, intending to seek a career advancement with Jiang Li.

To put it bluntly, if Sikong Ruo never gives up, he is willing to be Sikong Mazai.

Although Zhu Hui'an was a member of the Confucian sect, his speaking ability seemed to be that of an ancient famous person or political strategist.

Being able to say such humble words from the position of a fourth-grade strongman and the head of a family made Jiang Li's impression refreshed. It should be noted that when they first met, Zhu Hui'an had a profound appearance, just like Yuan Ting Yue Zhi.

Now, although he still has the same magnanimity, he has begun to put himself below Jiang Li.

Able to bend and stretch, very powerful.

Many people can bend and stretch when they have nothing, but when they become successful, their mood is completely different. It is difficult to stay as low as before. Zhu Hui'an has obviously never been suppressed, and simply lowered his posture without external pressure.

, not to mention its ability, this state of mind can be called a powerful one.

Hearing this, Jiang Li pondered for a moment, then touched his palms and said, "Good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Hui'an stood up and saluted Jiang Li, "Zhu Hui'an pays homage to Sikong."

"No need to be polite."

Naturally, Jiang Li would not let Zhu Huian perform a one-man show, so he stood up and supported him very cooperatively, saying: "From now on, I will have Mr. Lao."

Zhu Hui'an repeatedly said, "I don't dare take it", and they sat down again.

It's just that this time, it has some of my own meaning.

Zhu Hui'an had just surrendered, so naturally he wanted to show off, and immediately said: "To be honest with Sikong, one of the people who were in alliance with me in the past and wanted to change the Great Zhou Dynasty was Momen Tan Wuwei. This person has been traveling around the nine states for a long time, contacting the people.

I also deeply disagree with the current situation in the Zhou Dynasty. Although I am a Mohist, I am quite a confidant with you."

"It's just that even I never imagined that Tan Wuwei would dare to risk the disapproval of the world, contact the Buddhist country, and even secretly become the White Lotus Mother Bodhisattva of the Buddhist country."

Sure enough it was her.

Jiang Li had already had a guess in his mind, but now it was confirmed, and he had a new understanding of Tan Wuwei.

For many years, she has shown herself to be at the fifth level. Many people thought that this senior member of the Mo Sect had reached her upper limit and was unable to withstand the pressure of the higher level. Unexpectedly, it was not that she could not be promoted, but that she was the result of promotion.

Hard to show to others.

If the identity of the Innocent Old Mother Daoguo, the White Lotus Holy Mother Bodhisattva of the Buddhist Kingdom is exposed, she will definitely die.

Tan Wuwei was not only promoted to the fourth rank, but now she was promoted to the third rank.

"In your opinion, what will Tan Wuwei do next?" Jiang Li asked.

Zhu Hui'an had already suspected it, and immediately replied: "Tan Wu has the intention to change the world. She converted to the Buddhist Kingdom not because she agreed with the Buddhist Kingdom, but because she wanted to be promoted through the Buddhist Kingdom and use the power of the Buddhist Kingdom to achieve her own goals."

Her scheming city will definitely use her business in Kyushu as a reason to become a pioneer in spreading Buddhism to the east of the Buddhist Kingdom."

"Although the Buddhist Kingdom has accepted believers before, the intensity is far less than that of the Taiping Sect. No third-level disciples have appeared. In all likelihood, they are waiting for Tan Wuwei to be promoted."

"Now Liangzhou is experiencing a great disaster, with a shortage of population, natural disasters and plagues, and the intervention of people from the Imperial Academy. It is not a good place. Tan Wuwei should give up Liangzhou and start working in Yongzhou, first to run a missionary and establish a

Come on."

"Does she want to be soft?" Jiang Li raised his eyebrows.

Yongzhou has experienced the Mahayana Rebellion a hundred years ago, and should be wary of the Buddhist country. In addition, Yongzhou's folk customs are fierce, so being tough may not work, but being soft is a good strategy.

However, what is soft is afraid of what is hard. No matter how well you take root and run your business, if you cut it off with a butcher's knife, you will have to do it anyway.

It is easier to destroy than to create.

Although the Great Zhou Dynasty has begun to decline, with the eldest princess and Jiang Li stabilizing the situation, there is still no problem in using some butcher methods.

"Temporary operation, waiting for good opportunities," Zhu Hui'an replied, "She should wait for Taixue to restrain Sikong. Tan Wuwei knows that Taixue Jijiu is actually the person who most hopes for the next generation of emperor to appear."

"Emperor Daoguo?" Jiang Li asked.

The so-called next generation of emperors is naturally not a person who has the status of an emperor but does not have the fruits of the emperor's path.

"Yes, the Taixue's sacrifice of wine is the number one admirer of the Zhou system. The greater the power of Sikong, the less conducive it is to the return of the Emperor Daoguo. After all, many people in the court now know that Sikong and the Chang Consort are brothers." Zhu Hui'an.

He sold his teacher directly.

Good guys, it has become common knowledge.

Jiang Li had a toothache.

He and the people of the Feng clan are brothers, so it is possible that he secretly colludes with the Great Master to strengthen the seal and prevent the emperor's Daoguo from returning, right?

Jiang Li didn't know if there was a good brother stirring up trouble among them, but he could already confirm that Taixue Jijiu would find a way to break the seal sooner or later. Moreover, the great master would not only not strengthen the seal, but would secretly let it go.

Zhu Hui'an continued: "Before the emperor was sealed, he exposed the shortcomings of the emperor's Daoguo, which was known to everyone present. After Momen Juzi knew this, he went back to discuss with the top officials of Momen, so that he talked about knowing without doing anything, but talked about doing nothing.

I used this news as a bargaining chip to learn the Taixue's stance on offering wine from here."

When Jiang Li heard this, he understood what Tan Wuwei was thinking.

"She is waiting for Gu and Taixue to drink wine and turn against each other." Jiang Li confirmed.

Zhu Huian continued: "The Taixue sacrifice wine is waiting for Sikong and the eldest prince in the court. The two princes are in conflict. As long as one of the two is promoted to the fourth rank, it will be a time of confrontation. And the eldest prince and the second prince are in conflict.

, and even the Meng family and the Immortal Queen are waiting for the full-scale invasion of the Buddhist Kingdom, and Sikong and the Gongsun family head will fight against it."

At least for the Fairy Queen, she has to deal with Guanyin from the Buddhist Kingdom before she can be promoted, and by the way, let the First Prince attract firepower.

Then the Buddhist country was waiting for the conflict between Taixue Jijiu and Jiang Li.

Jiang Li: "·······"

A theoretical closed loop emerged.

"Many parties are waiting, waiting for the other party to take action, but they don't know that the other party is also waiting," Zhu Hui'an stroked his beard and said with a smile, "So, we only need to wait, time is on Sikong's side."

Jiang Li smiled and said happily: "Mr. Gude, it is really a great blessing for Gude."
