"Yes." After receiving Han Jiulin's instructions, Hu Sheng agreed and turned around to leave.
Ye Zhaoling raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is Kong Jie from the Han family?"
Han Jiulin nodded and said quietly: "He is one of the nine adopted sons adopted by my grandfather. He is a very capable guy."
"Are you planning to meet him?" Ye Zhaoling seemed a little strange. Based on her understanding of Han Jiulin, he should not meet anyone from the Han family before officially starting the fight with the Han family.
Han Jiulin hummed and said calmly: "It will be my grandma's seventieth birthday in a few days."
Han Jiulin could hate anyone in the Han family, but he had no hatred at all for his grandmother, that kind old woman.
You still remember when he was expelled from the Han family ten years ago.
His grandma became furious for the first time, pointed at his grandfather's nose, and cursed: "You old man, if you dare to drive Jiulin away today, you will suffer retribution in the future!"
In the Han family, men are in power, and grandma cannot stop Han Hongxin and Han Jiashi from making decisions together.
However, that old woman was still the only softness left in Han Jiulin's heart every time he thought about the Han family.
Hu She left, but Han Jiulin was still eating his meal calmly. Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that he was deliberately showing off Kong Jie.
In the courtyard inside the palace gate, Kong Jie did not stand and wait respectfully. He had already expected that this visit to Han Jiulin would not go well.
As Han Hongxin, who has served the Han family for half his life, he knows very well the grudges between Han Jiulin and the Han family.
Even when Han Jiulin was still the Qilin son of the Han family, when he met Han Jiulin, he still needed to treat him with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, let alone Han Jiulin and the Han family are in the same power now, and he is the king of the north?
Therefore, when Kong Jie came back, he was mentally prepared to be ridiculed by Han Jiulin. After walking through the door, he expressed his understanding to the servants of the palace and did not invite him into the room for tea.
The courtyard slowly began to spin.
Although the Han family is expensive, it is ultimately based on invisible inheritance and power. Food, clothing, and residential furnishings are naturally not as noble as Han Jiulin, the popular king of the day.
Han Jiulin's mansion alone is worth a hundred Han family ancestral homes.
However, being in it, Kong Jie's state of mind was not at all disturbed.
With the size of the Han family, such external things no longer have any meaning.
If the Han family is willing, except for a few places such as the imperial palace, is there any place in China that cannot be claimed as their own and used as their own residence?
It’s just that the Han family has been inherited for thousands of years, and they know very well that the beauty of trees will be destroyed by Lin Feng, so they have always kept a low profile. Except for the real powerful people, who can know that in the capital, the family that really has the right to speak is not the current one.
Those powerful families in Yipin, but the little-known Han family?
Just like the owner of the braised pork restaurant at the entrance of Dongliutiao Hutong, how could he know that the old man who would go to his store every other month and eat a portion of braised pork and donkey meat on fire could actually control
The economic artery that connects half of the capital and even half of China?
The extraordinary status of the Han family has long passed the level that needs to be revealed in front of outsiders.
About half an hour later, Hu She, the palace's butler, finally came to the front yard again.
"Mr. Kong, my prince has had breakfast and will meet you in the living room later. Please come with me."
"Thank you, Mr. Hu, for leading the way." Kong Jie cupped his hands and followed Hu Shen, all the way through the corridor and through the courtyard, and came to the second courtyard, where Han Jiulin received guests in the reception room.
The furnishings are simple, but the carved beams and columns exude dignity in the living room.
Han Jiulin was still wearing a white sportswear, sitting on the main sofa, holding a book in his hand.
In front of him, there was a cup of fine Dahongpao. The steam was steaming, and the sweet fragrance of tea filled the entire living room.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Kong is here."
Taking Kong Jie to the living room, Hu She bowed and reported.
Kong Jie stood in the open space in front of the door, looked at Han Jiulin, and felt a little emotional in his heart.
We haven't seen each other in ten years.
The helpless and weak young man back then has now become the most accomplished person in the world, achieving fame and fame that no one can match, and reaching heights that no one can match.
He has a resolute face, his youthfulness has faded away, he is not angry and proud, he is worthy of his name, and he already has the attitude of a king!
Although his achievements are inseparable from the Han family's hard work since childhood.
But he was able to apply what he had learned as a child to the battlefield, and made great achievements on the battlefield with real swords and guns. However, he could no longer attribute all the credit to the training of the Han family.
If he hadn't worked hard on his own, even if the Han family put ten times more effort into cultivating him, they would only be able to cultivate a fool.
Han Jiulin didn't react at all to the arrival of Hu She and Kong Jie. He still lowered his head slightly and read the book attentively.
How could Kong Jie not know that Han Jiulin was deliberately staged?
How ruthlessly he was expelled by the Han family ten years ago, and now he feels so resentful when he sees the Han family!
Kong Jie felt the same as Ming Jing.
"Kong Jie has met the Northern War Lord, the Northern King of Heaven!"
Kong Jie clasped his fists with both hands and made a bow, keeping his posture very low.
Han Jiulin then focused his eyes on the words on the page and slowly raised his head.
Glancing at Kong Jie, he asked slowly: "Who are you?"
Kong Jie was startled for a moment. Wasn't this asking questions knowingly?
However, he still answered truthfully: "I am a commoner, and I am the adopted son of Mr. Han Hongxin."
Han Jiulin lowered his eyes and continued reading.
After a while, he turned over a page of the book and said calmly: "Since you are a commoner, you should kneel down when you see this king. Why don't you... kneel down?"
Kong Jie was startled, and his expression inevitably turned strange.
He controlled hundreds of billions of business for the Han family. In the past, even the heads of the first-class families in the capital had to call him brothers and treat each other as equals when they met him.
What's more, he is Han Hongxin's adopted son and the adopted son of Grandpa Han Jiulin!
He is Han Jiashi’s adopted brother and Han Jiulin’s father’s adopted brother!
Logically speaking, he is Han Jiulin's adoptive father!
At this time, Han Jiulin actually asked him to kneel down and pay homage to him?
He met each other with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, and he had already made a sufficient gesture and abided by his duty.
Now Han Jiulin is asking him to kneel down. Isn't this a bit too much?
Kong Jie was not embarrassed or angry, but felt a little bit amused.
He thought for a moment and advised seriously: "King of Heaven, it's not that I can't kneel. The main thing is that I feel that even if I dare to kneel, you won't be able to bear it. Otherwise, let's forget it."
Han Jiulin put down the book, picked up the teacup, and took a sip. Then, holding the teacup in his hand, he asked puzzledly: "I am the king of heaven, one person is lower than ten thousand people. Please tell me why I am the king of heaven."
Can't bear your kneeling?"
Kong Jie replied in a clear and eloquent tone: "King of Heaven, please don't forget that I am your grandfather's adopted son and your sibling with a different surname. If you ask me to kneel down to you, wouldn't it be contrary to human ethics? If this is the case,
If you spread the word, I'm afraid it will have an impact on your reputation, right?"
Han Jiulin held the cup in one hand and rested on the wooden armrest of the Chinese sofa with the other. He made a fist and tilted his head against the fist. He looked at Kong Jie faintly and said calmly: "In the Three Cardinal Guidelines and the Five Constant Rules, the king is the guideline for the ministers, and the father is the guideline for the son."
, the husband guides his wife.
The king and his ministers come first, and the father and son come last.
Not to mention that Han Hongxin and Han Jiashi and I have long since severed the relationship between father and son. Even if I still have a relationship between father and son, they must first treat me as a king and a minister when they see me!
Do you have any questions?"
Kong Jie was shocked. Finally, at this moment, he really felt the pressure coming from Han Jiulin.
Only at this moment did he truly understand that Han Jiulin was no longer what he used to be.
With a wry smile on his lips, Kong Jie took a deep breath, slowly knelt down and prostrated himself on the ground.
"Kong Jie, pay your respects to the King of the North. The King of Heaven is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
