Chapter 344: The Four Great Families
Any regime is a matter that has been piled up with blood, and the court of history has given Jingchen a lot of insight.
In the face of this sudden coup d'Γ©tat within the Stormy Empire, it was not unusual for Jing Chen.
After the group was moaning outside for a while, Ba Le remembered, and immediately led Jingchen to walk inside, and said, "Boss, look at me confused, when I see you, I should lead you to see my grandfather." β
"That's right, our four families, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid we would have been killed by now, grandpa once commanded, when you come back, you must see you. β
"That's right, you're a great benefactor of our family, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have a chance to live!"
Jingchen couldn't help but smile lightly, this feeling is very good, although it is his own unintentional move.
He smiled and said, "It's time to visit a few old people." "This, follow Bale and his party inside.
After Ba Le's introduction, Jingchen knew how dangerous their situation was at that time.
After they got together with Jingchen that night, they followed Jingchen's advice and hurriedly probed the family on the second.
The old things at home are all old fritters, and they have been up and down in the officialdom for so many years, even if you don't need these reminders, you can feel something from that weird atmosphere.
What's more, there are several generalissimos who conquer the east and the west.
Perhaps because the relationship between these gentlemen is very good, in this case, the relationship between the generations of these families is also very good, and naturally, after hearing the words of these gentlemen, several families have been ventilated that night.
The old men of the four families are all human-like characters, so they naturally know the danger of this, and immediately make corresponding arrangements.
In this kind of big family, the rules and ranks are extremely strict, and the patriarch's order naturally triggered the rest of the response.
Of course, in a home similar to this kind of wealthy aristocracy, there are naturally other eyeliner.
For example, if the emperor wants to use you, first of all, you have to get his trust, and after the Tao trusts, you can enjoy certain rights.
And if you want to gain the emperor's trust, you must let the emperor understand you, and your every move, naturally, the emperor must know.
Therefore, among everyone, there must be some eyeliner arranged by the emperor, and in addition to the emperor, other people will naturally be the same.
Among everyone, there will be some eyeliner, perhaps, the person you are most familiar with is the one who has been inserted by others.
In short, it is impossible for your mansion to be clean, if it is so clean, the emperor will not dare to use you, and no one else will have to guard against you, and you will not let the family know your dynamics, what does this mean?
As for the situation in the mansion, as a patriarch, even if he can't control it 100%, he can at least control the seventh to eighth floor.
There are too many eyeliners in the mansion, how will other people think of you? You can't even do this, what qualifications do you have to be reused by the emperor?
In fact, this is also a very deep knowledge.
After several patriarchs secretly bumped into each other, they had a preliminary discussion, even if they couldn't believe all of them, they had to believe some of them.
Therefore, after the patriarchs returned, there was no sign of abnormality, as usual.
It's just that in secret, the patriarch asked a few of the most trustworthy people to put away the most important things in the clan.
Under the effect of storage treasures, these are naturally not too big a problem.
In a family, the most important thing is naturally kept in the most secret place, even if there is eyeliner, it is impossible to find it.
Just kidding, if the most important place in a family allows you to come and go freely with a single eyeliner, then there is no need for these families to exist.
The four major families will prepare the most important and precious things in their respective families in the shortest possible time, and then secondly, convene an intra-clan meeting, which will not attract the attention of others, after all, among a family, this kind of assembly is often held.
On top of this assembly, there are some inconsequential words, why? Because they can roughly know which eyeliners are who they are, and this assembly of the clan is for them, and at the same time gather the most core people of the clan.
In this way, under the nose of the eyeliner, it is naturally impossible for much of a problem to occur.
Because the assembly gathered all the important people of the clan, it was not so troublesome to escape.
The conference continued to be held, and it was nothing more than some miscellaneous things, and it was there to kill time anyway.
And that night, the patriarchs of the four major families had already sent their own soldiers out separately, allowing them to hide above the passes of each passage.
But whenever they encounter a large group of people or abnormal situations, they will notify each other, and at the same time, the four major families are also secretly communicating with each other, which is not too difficult for them to come.
All of this is done in secret, and outsiders have no way of knowing about it.
When the clan meeting ended, it was already evening, and then it was naturally time to eat.
Under the personal control of the patriarch, there will be people there who will retire first? Therefore, this meal lasted for a long, long time.
So much so that in the middle of the night, these four families were all brightly lit.
Facts have proved that Jingchen's intelligence is correct, and it is also an extremely correct choice for the four patriarchs to send their own personal soldiers, because they have waited for the person they want to wait for.
The patriarchs of these four major families are all high-ranking and powerful figures, and their own soldiers naturally can't be the kind of idle people, even if the people sent by the Emperor of the Storm are scattered, but with their experience, they can still judge the difference.
Soon, the news was passed on to the clan, and after receiving the news, the four patriarchs instantly killed all the eyeliners they knew, and then led the clansmen into the teleportation array arranged by the four great clansmen, and then escaped.
Fortunately, they walked fast, if they were one step late, then there was no need to guess the consequences, they had seen too many of this kind of things.
When Ba Le arrived, he had already taken Jingchen to the place where they were gathering now.
On top of this action, the four major families can be unprecedentedly united, even after coming here, they all live together, like a family.
When he walked inside, Jingchen couldn't help but be secretly shocked, the people here were less than four or five hundred people, and this was just some important clansmen, not counting those relatives and other clansmen.
With the addition of their guards, as well as the servants and others brought over, there are about a thousand people together, which is definitely a huge number.
Even Jingchen had to be surprised, the real difference between everyone and home.
The Jing family can be regarded as a big family, but compared with the four major families, there is no comparison at all, whether it is quantity or quality, it is not above the same level.
Jingchen has never seen the glory of the four major families, but this does not mean that he has no chance to see it.
Soon, four gorgeously dressed old men walked out of the house, and from their words and deeds, they could vaguely distinguish their former glory, after all, they were powerful figures, no matter how downtrodden they were, they all had a noble atmosphere.
In this situation, Jingchen can naturally distinguish at a glance.
He bent down at the four old men and said, "Junior Jingchen, I've seen four old men!"
Even if they take refuge here in Jingchen now, the aura on the four old men is still undiminished, this is their pride as a big clan, this is an indelible pride.
The four old men nodded, smiled, and said, "Brother is polite, but this time, it should be our four old things to give you a salute!"
Jingchen dared to accept their salute, and immediately used his own strength to lift the four of them up, and said, "Four old men, don't bother." β
The four old men were just putting on a show, and if they really let them salute, I am afraid they would not be able to do it, even if they were down, their pride would not be worn away in this moment.
After seeing that the two sides met, Ba Le immediately began to introduce these old men.
Among the five of them, it was originally led by Jing Wuhua, this time, the Xiaoyao Mansion was not involved, and Jing Wuhua naturally did not have to run away, and if there was no Jing Wuhua, it was naturally Ba Le's turn, whether it was age, family background or ability, Ba Le was enough to guide them.
At this time, as an intermediary, he was about to act as an intermediary, and immediately pointed to the one on the left and said: "This is the generalissimo of the expedition to the east, Zhao Zhi Grandpa Zhao, this is the military minister and the grandfather of the military minister in charge of the empire's finances, this is the generalissimo of the expedition to the west, Gao Yu, Grandpa, this is my grandfather Ba Yun." β
Ba Le's introduction is very simple, and these old men are very recognizable.
Among them, Zhao Zhili and Gao Yu both exude a heavy evil aura, at first sight they are the kind of battle-hardened characters, one is extremely burly, the other is relatively extremely thin, two completely different people, people can distinguish at first sight, and Wu Xiang, a slightly short stature, a person who is full of fortune, is extremely consistent with his title of God of Wealth, and the remaining one, like a Confucian general, is the city lord of Storm City.
Jingchen couldn't help but sigh secretly, these were all high-ranking and powerful ministers in the Stormy Empire in the past, just because of the words of the Stormy Emperor, they had to die, this pattern of feudal dynasties, I don't know when it can be completely reversed in this world, maybe, never.
Ba Yun smiled, and said with a bit of loneliness in his tone: "Brother, those glorious titles are already in the past, and now, we are just a group of bad old men who have taken refuge in you!" and waved his hand.
Seeing the appearance, among the four people, Zhao Zhili and Gao Yu are not good at words, while Wu Xiang is always smiling, and the only one who can stand up and speak is this Ba Yun.
Jingchen smiled and said: "These riches are just floating clouds, whether they are there or not, they are all like this, as long as they are there, they will be fine!"
Jingchen's words made the eyes of the four old men light up, how extensive their knowledge was, and they quickly realized what the meaning was.
At the same time, he laughed and said, "Yes, yes, yes, yes, you are still open-minded!"
"Wealth and floating clouds, it is true, the prosperity of the past and the decline of today, are the same truth, haha!"
The four old men laughed heartily, they are all from the past, they have experienced a lot of things, and the perception of life is not a little bit.
Obviously, after such a sentence, it has brought Jingchen's relationship a step closer, which obviously reveals a feeling of closeness.
Ba Yun grabbed Jingchen and said, "Okay, just say this to you, and accompany a few of us old men to have a drink!"
The four major families, what a huge existence? The financial and material resources they control are unimaginable to ordinary people.
Although there are a lot of things, but under the effect of the storage magic weapon, it is extremely light.
Since they were ready to flee, they had naturally been prepared for a long time, or, as important members of the imperial court, they had already had this kind of consciousness a long time ago, so they had already prepared what they wanted.
In the officialdom, there is no eternal evergreen, now you are still radiant, maybe in the future, you will fall to the ground, this kind of thing, in the officialdom is too common, therefore, they have subconsciously prepared for a long time, and all the valuables and sufficient materials have been prepared to talk.
Although this escape was rushed, there should be a lot of material things.
Knowing how many things they had brought over, Jingchen was dazzled by what he saw.
I have to be, these rich and powerful people will always have a few habits, such as this Ba Yun, who actually brought all the tables in his home.
What kind of material this table was made of, Jingchen didn't know, and he didn't want to know.
Jingchen and Piaoxu were pulled in by Ba Le and his party, and under Ba Yun's enthusiasm, soon, good wine and good food were served.
Jingchen couldn't help but smile bitterly for a while, these preparations are inevitably too full of zero, right?
You know, in this Moxie Valley, there is no game or anything, this is all the things they brought themselves.
It's hard to imagine, are you here to escape for your life, or are you here to play, but when you think about it, with the storage treasures, even if you have a lot of things, you can contain them.
Soon, a table of wine and food had been served, which made Jingchen a little speechless, Damn, aren't you here to drink? Why are you even serving food.
Soon, those drinks and dishes were neatly placed in front of them.
Ba Yun raised his wine glass and said to Jingchen: "Brother, if you are superfluous, we won't have much, we will understand your life-saving grace!"
Jingchen also dried the glass of wine with Ba Yun.
Soon, with the warm hospitality of the party, the atmosphere on the wine table suddenly became lively.
While drinking and eating, we talked at the same time, but we also had a good time.
Jing Chen couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, these old things, these words are inquiring about their origins and identities.
What a smart character Jing Chen is? How could they hide from Jing Chen?
Under the effect that Jingchen could do, he secretly told these old things some news that could be found out from the outside that didn't matter.
Naturally, it was impossible for Jingchen to let these old things see it, and in his words, some questions that were inconvenient to answer were directly diverted from the topic, and he told them very clearly that he knew what the hell you were doing.
In the end, it is a person who has been in the officialdom for so long, Jingchen's answer made them feel what the meaning of this is.
Fortunately, the group had already entered a state of climax at this time, and there was nothing too noteworthy.
After three rounds of drinking, the group quieted down slightly.
Ba Yun drove away Ba Le, who was sitting next to Jingchen, patted Jingchen's founding party, and said: "Brother, this time, it's really thanks to you, if it weren't for you, our families would all be finished, again, I thank you for the old man." β
Jingchen smiled lightly and said, "Grandpa Ba, you have won the award for what you said, Ba Le and I are both brothers, but this little favor should be helped." β
"Hehe, that's it, Brother Jingchen, since you are like this, let's keep this kindness in our hearts, and we will definitely repay it to you one day." After Wu Xiang drank the wine, he talked significantly more.
Said: "This, brother, alas, you and us, old immortals, have dedicated how much youth and energy to the empire in our lives, but, in the end, what have we got?
slapped the table fiercely, Wu Xiang sighed, and said, "What you got is actually such a thing." β
"Just because they had a conflict with the Lord of the Yuan God Temple, our family became scapegoats, this, this is really aggrieved!"
In other words, anyone in this situation will feel extremely aggrieved, no one wants to play the role of a scapegoat, especially when this matter has nothing to do with them and it happened to them, this is the most aggrieved thing.
The group was silent at the same time, this matter, I am afraid that it is an eternal pain in their hearts, no one will be willing to accept this kind of betrayal, even under the system of this feudal dynasty, it is still like this, just imagine, you are willing to take refuge in others, but in the end, you actually ended up with such a fate, you can imagine, who can accept it?
Jingchen asked himself that he would not accept it.
