Chapter 65 All the way east
Zhao Feng did not return to Lin'an City with the wooden sword in his hand, but took Xiao Ma all the way east. Zhao Feng did not choose a destination and did not have any goals. His simple white shirt and handsome face showed such sunshine under the light of the bright sun in winter. Zhao Feng did not use the true qi in his body and simply walked like ordinary people. .
After a winter rain, the whole territory of the Song Dynasty was slightly cold in a cold climate. The trees on both sides of the pipeline had already withered, and only the bare trunks stood on the ground.
Countless pedestrians on the official road were rushing on the road in a hurry, hoping to return home on New Year's Eve to reunite with their families. The pedestrians on the road looked at Zhao Feng in a thin shirt and wondered. Since he only wore a thin summer shirt in such a cold weather, he understood a little when he saw the wooden sword at Zhao Feng's waist. Stay away from Zhao Feng in awe.
"Little brother, I'm the first Zhongzhou Nangong Lie." This is a carriage parked beside Zhao Feng. An old man came out of the car and said to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng looked at the old man and didn't say anything, but even if he just looked at it quietly, it made the old man and his servant feel that the teenager was different.
The old man looked at Zhao Feng slightly, both his temperament and his hidden cultivation, which made the old man very satisfied. Then he said, "Little brother, I don't know your surname. Where are you going?"
While the old man was looking at Zhao Feng, Zhao Feng was also looking at the old man. The old man was not the kind of small and rich family. Judging from the old man's clothes and carriages, he should belong to the powerful figure of the former Zhongzhou and then said, "Next week, I haven't figured out where to go."
Although the old man had doubts when he heard Zhao Feng's words, he did not ask, but said, "In this case, if the little brother does not dislike it, go to my home for New Year's Eve"
Zhao Feng frowned slightly and couldn't figure out why the old man suddenly invited him. Since he had not figured out where to go at present, he agreed to it since someone invited him.
Nangong Lie saw Zhao Feng's promise and a happy expression appeared on his face and invited Zhao Feng into the carriage.
Nangong Lie asked some irrelevant things in the carriage, and Zhao Feng was so perfunctory, and Zhao Feng also slowly learned about some situations of Nangong Lie through conversation.
Xianzhongzhou is located in the east of Zhongzhou, and Xianzhongzhou is the second richest place in Yunzhou. The most essential difference between the family here and the Yunzhou family is that the family here is basically business-oriented and the most firmly supported by the royal family of the Song Dynasty. Nangong Lie is now the head of the Nangong branch in Philadelphia, Zhongzhou, and the Nangong family is the third largest merchant in the middle of the state, and the head of the family is the prince of the Song Dynasty, which also gives the Nangong family some power in a certain scope.
And all the families of Xianzhongzhou are the most simple and firm support of the royal family because some of the founding achievements of Taizu came from Xianzhongzhou. The most important thing is that Xianzhongzhou is equivalent to the center of the noble princes, because although most of the princes of Xianzhongzhou do not have real power, they are all hereditary marquises from their ancestors.
While the old man inquired intentionally or unintentionally, the carriage gradually entered the gate of the South Palace branch in Philadelphia.
The old man personally arranged Zhao Feng's residence and said that someone would call the prince for dinner in the evening and left. Zhao Feng sat in the room and simply looked at the layout of the room, and then thought to himself, "Sure enough, it is worthy of a commercial family. The layout of a branch is so luxurious, and it has just come in. I didn't feel the existence of Dongxuan practitioners, and at most it was the innate realm. I think this is also the family in the early Zhongzhou family to prevent the same end as the Yunzhou family"
The family in Zhongzhou can't be compared with the family in Yunzhou at all. The existence of the family in Yunzhou has a history of 900 years and the first 100 years dominated the Central Plains. If it hadn't been for the intervention of the Qingtian Religion, the family in Yunzhou would still dominate the Central Plains. It's not the holy land of the sect at all.
It's almost dusk, and the bright sun in the sky is slowly falling into the western horizon.
Not long after, the servants of the Nangong family informed Zhao Feng to go to the lobby to eat. When Zhao Feng walked into the lobby, he saw more than other members of the Nangong family.
After Nangong Lie welcomed Zhao Feng into the position, he introduced him one by one. There were seven people at the table from left to right, namely, Nangong Lie's eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, followed by the second son and second daughter-in-law, and finally Nangong Lie's youngest daughter and eldest grandson. Zhao Feng saw that Nangong Lie's children were very kind and there was no one in his eyes. He was bored.
After dinner, Nangong Hui, the 17-year-old grandson of Nangong Lie, forcibly took Zhao Feng to Philadelphia.
Philadelphia is one of the seven main cities of Central State. Although it is not as prosperous as Lin'an, Philadelphia has another quiet beauty. Philadelphia at night has long been full of people. In addition to civilians, there are many practitioners, but these practitioners are innate and there is no more than a cave. Zhao Feng also asked Nangong Hui because the king of Chu of Xianzhongzhou strictly prohibited the innate practitioners from entering Xianzhongzhou. If they appear, they will be caught and sent to the Lin'an clan's mansion. This is also to prevent the situation of the Yunzhou family from reappearing in the royal family, but there are also other things that the family in Xianzhou allows the existence of a Dongxuan or Those who know the existence of the strong.
"Brother Zhou, what do you think of my sister-in-law?" asked Nangong Hui, who was still childish.
After hearing this, Zhao Feng immediately smiled and said, "It's very beautiful as the beauty of clear water and hibiscus." If Xiao Qing, He Qian and Zhou Xuan are the kind of beautiful beauty, then Nangong Jing, the youngest daughter of Nangong Lie, is as quiet as a lotus.
After listening to this, Nangong Hui laughed and said, "Brother Zhou, you don't have a family now, and my little aunt doesn't marry you."
After hearing this, Zhao Feng felt dizzy and then knocked on Nangong Hui's head and said, "That's it. Your sister-in-law sold it to me, who doesn't know where she came from."
Nangong Hui hugged his head and said, "Grandpa said that even if he doesn't know the origin of Brother Zhou, he must be a great person from the perspective of Brother Zhou's temperament"
Zhao Feng smiled and continued to walk around Philadelphia at night without saying anything.
"Dad, can Mr. Zhou really help us separate the family?" Nangong Zhong, the eldest son of Nangong Lie in the backyard of Nangong Mansion, said worriedly.
"I don't know." Nangong Lie looked at his reflection in the teacup and said that Nangong Lie also saw Zhao Feng in the carriage when he came back, and the eyes of Lie in Nangong confirmed that Zhao Feng would definitely not be an ordinary person. Although Zhao Feng had never revealed his cultivation, Nangong Lie also guessed that Zhao Feng must know his fate. The realm of. Now all the Nangong branches in Xianzhongzhou have encountered a huge crisis, and the main family in Pingjing City has no time to manage the affairs of the branches in Xianzhongzhou in various places, so they have to issue orders for each Nangong branch to deal with it by themselves.
"Dad, it is obvious that the other three families want to annex our Nangong family, and there is the shadow of the king of Qi in this incident," said Uncle Nangong, the second son of Nangong Lie, who sat next to him.
"Will this be the meaning of the imperial court?" Nangong Zhong was worried that if there was the meaning of the imperial court behind it, then the Nangong family was basically over this time.
Nangong Lie shook his head and said, "There is no shadow of the court behind, only the shadow of the king of Chu"

.......................................
"The king of Chu is restless and still lost to me many years ago." The emperor in the imperial study in the palace looked at the secret report sent by the king of Jin and said
"Your Majesty, you have to guard against it," said King Lu.
The emperor nodded and said, "If the king of Chu really rebelled and hit the Song Dynasty today, now all the plans have been prepared to be sloppy at all. You are ready to report this secret to the king of Qi and the king of Jin so that they can also be ready to be strangled in the cradle before the king of Chu rebels. In addition, Is there any news about the King of Maple"
"Your Majesty doesn't have it. If King Feng doesn't want anyone to know his whereabouts, even we can't find it," said King Lu,
"Well, retreat. This time, we can't let the king of Chu destroy the plan that the Song Dynasty has worked hard for 500 years," the emperor said.
"Yes," Lu Wang replied and launched the imperial study.
Looking at the king of Lu who left the imperial study, the emperor looked at the secret report in his hand and said, "It's still my fault that I was too kind in those years. Now that the king of Chu has jumped out, it's time to kill the chicken and show it to the monkey"
In addition to Zhongzhou, there were eight princes in charge of the internal affairs of the royal family in the other eight states in Jiuzhou of the Song Dynasty. Of course, since they were members of the royal family, they also vaguely intervened in the government affairs of the court. For example, the king of Chu in the first state intervened in the government affairs of the first state.
(I'm really busy these days. When I come back, I quickly write and sleep for a while, because I may have to work overtime at any time. After this period, I will recover from two updates a day, and adding one more every day is equivalent to three updates a day. I hope everyone will continue to support me. Thank you.)
