Chapter 335: Invitation to the ceremony
Shang Hanlin and the young man didn't stay long in the hotel, and they left after just over two hours. Jiang Lai secretly followed him, watched the young man send Shang Hanlin home, and then drove away alone.
In order to find out the identity of the young man, Jiang Lai followed all the way, and after about half an hour, the Porsche finally stopped in front of a villa.
From the eye, this two-storey Gothic villa is extravagant, surrounded by verdant lawns and surrounded by a three-metre high wall. After a few glances, Jiang Lai jumped up from the ground with a light tiptoe, and went straight over the wall.
In the lawn of the villa, there are five or six security personnel, constantly roaming around, patrolling the surrounding situation.
Seeing that there was no cover nearby, Jiang Lai rose from the ground, stood in the air, crossed over the heads of the group of security personnel, and came to the balcony on the top floor of the villa.
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, inside was an unused bedroom, the bed and sofa were covered in plastic, apparently uninhabited for a long time, and everywhere was covered with a thick layer of dust.
When I came out of the room, I saw that the entire floor was pitch black, and there was no one in sight. Walking up the stairs to the second floor, the lights are on below, and you can faintly hear the sound of people chatting.
"Young Master, do you need to wait for you to rest?"
"No need. The familiar voice sounded, it was the young man who Jiang Lai had been tracking all the way, "That Shang Hanlin is really a stupid woman, I coaxed her into submission with a few casual words, no matter what I say, she doesn't doubt it." ”
"So what do we do next?"
"Of course, it is carried out according to the original plan, looking for an opportunity to do Shang Nishang and help Shang Hanlin ascend to the throne, as long as we firmly control Shang Hanlin, the Shang family will become a vassal of our Wu family sooner or later in the future. At that time, our Wu family will be able to break the situation that the major forces have maintained for many years and sit firmly at the head of the four major families. ”
"It's still the young master who is wise. ”
Hearing their conversation, Jiang Lai immediately understood, if he guessed correctly, this Wu family should be one of the four major families. It seems that Fu Yu'an is right, these forces are deceitful and deceitful to each other, and the struggle in secret is very fierce.
After figuring out the identity of the young man, Jiang Lai did not stay too long and left the villa directly.
……
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and after not being forced by Shang Nishang, Jiang Lai's life was very easy, and he had nothing to do all day, just pretending to practice for a while.
"Jiang Hai!"
In the room, Jiang Lai, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, heard Cai Yan's shouts coming from outside, and immediately got up to greet him, "Miss Cai, is there something wrong with me?"
"Go, follow me to the office, my dad is looking for you. ”
When he came to Cai Zhang's office, Jiang Lai stood honestly, "Deputy Pavilion Master, I don't know what you're looking for me for." ”
"Jiang Hai, that's the case, we're going to go out in a few days, and I'm not going to trouble you, but the owner of the hall has specially told you to let you go along, so you should prepare well and set off together when the time comes." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Lai couldn't help but be stunned, "Deputy Pavilion Master, where are we going?"
"Yeon-yeon will tell you. ”
Coming out of the office, Jiang looked at Cai Yan beside him, who understood and said, "Have you heard of the three major families?"
"Miss Cai, aren't you kidding me, I have just come into contact with your world, how can I know so much. ”
"The three major families are a very powerful force, and this time, the three major families sent invitations to the major forces to come and watch the ceremony, and it is said that it seems that it is because of the new leader who succeeded to the throne. ”
Jiang Lai nodded secretly, it turned out that it was for this matter, because Hao Yun secretly reported the news, so he knew everything about the affairs of the three major families. Listening to Hao Yun, Hai Liusha was elected by the three elders, and she was in charge of the three major families. When he first learned the news, he was indeed taken aback, who would have thought that this woman would come this far.
In a flash of thought, he asked puzzledly: "Miss Cai, since it is a ceremony, why does the hall owner have to let me go with me?"
"I don't know that, but you should feel honored, no one in our martial arts hall has been treated as special as you. ”
"Miss Cai, the entire Shang family is only represented by the hall owner?"
Cai Yan nodded, "This is the care of the head of the family for the owner of the pavilion, the dispute within the Shang family is too fierce, and our owner doesn't like to participate in this kind of struggle the most, so find a reason to let her leave far away, so as not to be remembered." ”
Although Jiang Lai was a little reluctant, the hall owner had spoken, and he couldn't help but comply.
Two days passed quickly, and early in the morning, Jiang Lai carried a duffel bag and stood at the door of the martial arts hall and waited quietly. More than ten minutes later, a Mercedes-Benz RV slowly drove up and stopped in front of him.
got into the car, and saw Shang Nishang, Cai Zhang, and Cai Yan all there. It's just that Shang Nishang had a cold expression, didn't even look at him, and kept staring out the window.
After saying hello, Jiang Lai sat next to Cai Yan and closed his eyes to recuperate.
It was about 400 kilometers from Qinzhou City to Jiangzhou, and after more than three hours of driving, the group finally arrived at their destination at noon.
When I came to the hotel designated by the three families, as soon as I got off the bus, the reception staff of the three families immediately came forward to greet me. Jiang Lai glanced away, and couldn't help but be happy, he didn't expect that he was still an acquaintance, it was Hao Yun.
After observing the two eyes, Jiang Lai was very satisfied, although he hadn't seen him for a few months, Hao Yun's progress was very great, and now he had broken through the half-saint realm, presumably the treasures he got from the treasure house played a great role. No wonder the three major families will send him to be in charge of the reception work this time, with his performance, he must have gradually received attention in the three major families.
In order to receive the guests who came to watch the ceremony, the three major families chartered the entire hotel, and the four Jiang Lai were assigned to the guest rooms on the third floor. After a short rest, Cai Yan knocked on the door of Jiang Lai's room and advised: "I have something to do with my father, you stay in the hotel, don't walk around, people from all forces are gathered here, if you accidentally make trouble, it will be very troublesome." ”
"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for the owner. ”
After seeing Cai Yan leave, Jiang Lai walked to the window and watched the traffic in front of the hotel. This time, the three major families acted in a very high-profile manner, and almost all the Dao Sect forces were invited, not only the Yi family, but even the people from the Lingyan Sect, the Songyin Sect, the Eight Desolations Sect, and the Wulan Sect were present.
No wonder Cai Yan deliberately told herself before leaving, so many Daomen forces gathered here, it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no friction. After all, many forces are not in harmony with each other, and it may not be easy for them to coexist peacefully under the same roof.
While thinking about it, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Jiang Lai got up and opened the door, only to see Shang Nishang standing at the door with an indifferent face.
