Chapter 1833: Back to the Slums
The thousand-year-old family followed Emperor Yingtian in his early years, these are the advantages of the Murong family, and they are also the key to the great power of the Murong family in the court.
But in front of some people, these advantages are useless, such as the owner of the mansion in front of them, Wei Zhongcen Wei Lao, one of the five rotating prime ministers of the cabinet!
The cabinet, which is the hub of the empire in charge of the world, is the emperor Yingtian, and at some times, he has to make some concessions.
And Wei Lao, who is an old cabinet minister, is far from being comparable to Murong Baichuan, the director of the Finance Department, in terms of power and status.
If Murong Baichuan, the director of the Finance Department, made a big mistake, or was caught and poked out, Wei Lao even had the power to remove him.
Moreover, as long as the reason is sufficient, even Emperor Yingtian is not good at interfering, this is the cabinet, the center of the administrative body of the Ancient God Empire.
Mo Fan had only lived in the slums for a while, and then he had joined the Wasteland Legion, so it was naturally impossible for him to know the cabinet leaders of the Ancient God Empire.
But who let this cabinet veteran Wei have a junior named Wei Qian in his family, and he happens to be in the Wasteland Reclamation Army, and he is still friends with Mo Fan?
Murong Jia, the director of the Finance Department, could not give face to the military department, but the reinforcements Mo Fan was looking for were not from the military department, but from the cabinet.
is also an administrative agency, or the central hub cabinet of the administrative agency, Mo Fan still doesn't believe it, and the Murong family doesn't even dare to give face to Wei Lao, the old minister of the cabinet.
When I came out of the Wei family's mansion, it was already evening.
"My lord, with Elder Wei to help speak, I believe that the Murong family will soon succumb. ”
Ji Chongwen looked at Mo Fan with some excitement.
Cabinet Wei Lao, this is much bigger than the Murong family, the director of the Finance Department, the former even Emperor Yingtian has to be in awe, while the latter is completely dependent on the support and trust of Emperor Yingtian in order to have today's status and power, these two are not a heavyweight at all.
Moreover, a cabinet minister like Wei Lao is not qualified to be seen by anyone.
Ji Chongwen knew very well in his heart that if he hadn't followed Mo Fan today, let alone seeing Wei Lao, he would definitely not even be able to enter the Wei family's gate.
Don't look at the fact that he can enter the Praetorian Guard, his family background is much better than most people, but even the elders who have the heaviest weight in his family may not be qualified to meet a cabinet figure of Wei Lao's level.
was fortunate enough to see a big man like Wei Lao, even from beginning to end, Ji Chongwen didn't dare to speak, or forgot to speak at all, but this was enough to make him very excited.
"Wei Lao didn't say that, don't guess. ”
Mo Fan secretly wiped a cold sweat just now, and seeing Ji Chongwen's excited and somewhat uncontrollable appearance, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and hurriedly admonished.
Seeing Wei Lao, this was not something to be happy about for him, if it wasn't for the fact that there was no way, he would never choose to do this.
Because his identity is too sensitive, not only the leader of the Thousand Sects Alliance, but also the identity of the rune master, which will be exposed sooner or later in the future, and when the time comes, anyone who has a close relationship with him will probably have to bear the wrath of Emperor Yingtian.
When he was in Lianyun Sect, he had to try to reduce his sense of existence, for fear that he would affect others in the future, not to mention the elder family members of Wei Qian and others in the imperial capital.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no way, the military department would not be able to influence the big names in the administrative apparatus at all, and he would rather never contact Wei Qian's family.
Therefore, although he visited Wei Lao as a friend of Wei Qian this time, and prepared a generous gift, in front of Wei Lao, he has always been cautious, neither too close, nor daring to be a little arrogant, and has always maintained a certain distance.
As for whether Old Wei would hide from anyone, Mo Fan was really not worried about this.
He is now not only the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard, but also the leader of the Thousand Sects Alliance, and his status is high enough.
Even Emperor Ying Tian was embarrassed to ignore his arrival, and specially asked Dong Lao to come forward to greet him personally, not to mention an old courtier like Wei Lao.
Coupled with the incident that Dong Lao took a large number of masters to meet him at the port of the aviation ship some time ago, Mo Fan didn't believe it, and the Wei family dared to pose in front of him.
It's just that for the Wei family, Mo Fan didn't plan to continue to contact, this time it was enough to ask Wei Lao to help move the Murong family.
"My lord, where are we going next?
Ji Chongwen finally calmed down from the excitement, and then asked.
It's hard to come out of the palace, if you just go back like this, Ji Chongwen is really reluctant.
But as an adjutant, even if he was reluctant in his heart, Ji Chongwen didn't dare to make up his mind for the deputy commander, especially after meeting with Wei Lao in the cabinet just now and discovering the amazing energy and connections of this deputy commander.
"Don't worry! Let's go to the slums while we still have some time. ”
Mo Fan thought for a moment, and then replied.
Ji Chongwen was overjoyed at first, but then he was stunned.
Of course, it's a good thing not to rush back to the palace, but what are you going to do in the slums? It's just a few little people, and besides, what's there to do in the slums?
But then, Ji Chongwen remembered that it seemed that this deputy commander had come out of the slums, and this time he finally had a chance, and it was normal to go back and take a look.
Although the imperial capital is prosperous and changing with each passing day, all kinds of buildings of various patterns appear frequently, but the slums seem to have been forgotten by everyone, and there is almost no change compared to a few years ago, when Mo Fan first came.
After more than two years, when he came to the door of the World Martial Arts Hall again, Mo Fan's face suddenly changed.
There is not even a person at the gate of the martial arts hall in this world, and the surroundings are also very deserted.
But he remembered very well that in the slums, the Tianxia Martial Arts Hall was one of the most famous martial arts halls, with a history of more than 50 years.
In the past, although it could not be crowded every day, it was never so deserted.
"My lord, something happened, I just inquired, the matter of the World Martial Arts Hall getting into trouble with the Murong family, the director of the Finance Department, has spread, and now everyone does not dare to get too close to the World Martial Arts Hall, for fear of being misunderstood. ”
At this time, Ji Chongwen, who had just left for a while, suddenly came up and reminded him in a low voice.
"Let's go, let's get in!"
Mo Fan's heart tightened, and a fine light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
After a moment, he whispered a word, and then, he walked towards the Martial Arts Hall first.
However, don't look at the fact that the outside of the World Martial Arts Hall is very deserted, and you can't even see a single figure, but before they walked in, someone immediately greeted them.
"What kind of people? What are you so bold, who let you in? If you don't want to die, get out!"
Two or three burly men, all shirtless, with several tattoos on their bodies, came up unceremoniously and scolding, with a posture of wanting to drive people away.
Mo Fan raised his eyebrows slightly, the good martial arts hall actually didn't let people in? No wonder it was so deserted outside.
However, since others are not polite to him, there is no need for him to be polite to others.
