CHAPTER XLIII

"Haha, what are you afraid of, only the two of us can hear it. Also, isn't this what you're looking for, Xiao Lizi?" Ye Yu looked at Zhao Li with a wicked smile, and his teasing eyes signaled something.

"Ahem...... Big brother, you are too bohemian......" Zhao Li's mind was not so open, so he could only reply awkwardly, his face was slightly red, and he was obviously ridiculed.

Ye Yu suddenly looked at Zhao Li and skimmed his back with his eyes.

Zhao Li immediately understood, turned back to a few followers and said, "A few of you will go to the academy to find out the news first, and see if you can get any information." ”

"Yes!"

Although several clansmen knew that Zhao Li intended to send them away, they could not resist Zhao Li's order.

After a few people left, Zhao Licai asked, "Is there anything you want to say about the eldest brother?"

Ye Yu nodded and said, "Xiao Lizi, to be honest, what is the relationship between your three major families secretly?" Don't worry, I was not entrusted by your sister-in-law to ask you. Night Feather's words were a little serious, and they didn't mean to joke.

"Big... Sister-in-law, who?" Zhao Li asked as he looked at Ye Yu with a confused expression.

"Khan!Little Red Lotus!Otherwise, who else?" Ye Yu was defeated by Zhao Li's reaction.

"Huh? You guys...... You guys really... Together?" Although Zhao Li knew that Ye Yu was pursuing the Fire Red Lotus, this speed was too ...... Incredible, right?

"I saved her life in the deep forest in the suburbs, so she naturally promised her! Okay, let's not talk about this first, you will know whether it is true or false later, or talk about the affairs of your three major families. Ye Yu obviously didn't want to waste any more time on this topic, he had to understand the relationship between the three families before deciding what to do next.

Zhao Li shook his head to bring himself back to his senses, then glanced at Ye Yu, and said in a deep voice: "Big brother, although I don't know what you are asking for, I believe that you will not do anything to hurt me and the Zhao family." Although we haven't known each other for a long time, I can feel you as a person in my heart. Okay, I'll talk about the distribution of forces in this Dongkui City, the Huo family of the city lord's mansion occupies the northern area of the city, our Zhao family and the Xu family occupy the west and east of the city respectively, and the south of the city belongs to the public area and does not belong to any family. In addition to the three major families, there are also some small sects that are eyeing each other and want a piece of the pie at any time.

Now in this situation, the three major families are still in a state of balance, if one side shows signs of defeat one day, then those small sects and small factions will definitely unite and fall into the ground. Once these so-called small sects and small factions unite, I am afraid that they will not be much worse than our three major families, but they only have interests in their eyes, so they have not joined forces. ”

Ye Yu secretly wrote down what Zhao Li had said, and couldn't help but say, "The poisonous snake in the dark!"

"Well, although the Huo family is the city lord's mansion, there is the shadow of the empire behind it, but the empire doesn't care who is the city lord, as long as Dongkui City is not destroyed, invaded, and civilians are harmed without reason, then the empire doesn't care who is the city lord. In other words, whoever has the biggest fist will be the boss! This city lord is not in vain, every year the empire will reward some resources, and it is this resource that has become fat in our eyes. Zhao Li also said with some jealousy.

"Then if you want to be the lord of the city, can't it be that you will fight directly? In that case, there will definitely be mass casualties! Then the destruction will definitely appear......" Night Feather asked incomprehensibly.

Zhao Li seemed to have known that Ye Yu would ask like this, and explained: "Of course not, every ten years, Dongkui City will hold a City Lord's Mansion selection competition. To put it simply, the forces that are going to participate in the election send teenagers and girls under the age of twenty to compete, and the final champion is the descendant of which force, then the City Lord's Mansion belongs to which force. Moreover, this city lord's mansion is an existence protected by the empire, so there is no existence of attacking the city lord's mansion and robbing it. It is selected once every ten years, so the primary task of every force is to cultivate talents! If you want to sit firmly in the city lord's mansion, then you have to rely on the juniors to fight it. ”

"There is still such a thing, so hasn't the Fire Family been sitting firmly for many years?" Ye Yu was surprised for a moment and asked rhetorically.

Zhao Li nodded: "Listen to my father, it has been forty-nine years since the Huo family last won the City Lord's Mansion! It is said that this is the generation of families that have occupied the City Lord's Mansion for the longest time in the history of Dongkui City. Therefore, the Huo family has always received a lot of resources, and the juniors are really full of talents, just like the fire... Well, sister-in-law is the same. ”

Ye Yu looked at Zhao Li, looked at him strangely and said, "Forty-nine years...... In this way, next year will be the year of the selection of the City Lord's Mansion, and the New Year will be celebrated in eight months......"

"Yes, it seems that this year it is the Huo family that is sitting firmly......" Zhao Li looked at the sky a little sluggishly, the aura of the Fire Red Lotus was really overwhelming him, and by the time he had the peak strength of the Nine Mirrors, the Fire Red Lotus would probably have already stepped into the realm of the imperial envoy. As everyone knows, the Fire Red Lotus has already stepped into the realm of the imperial envoy, if Zhao Li learns about it, I don't know if he will be "crushed" to death......

"As for the relationship between our three major families, they all don't look at each other well, and when the elders meet, they will sneer and sneer, which is very bad. But the atmosphere in this world is like this, the weak eat the strong, there is nothing to dislike, you can only blame your fists for not being hard enough. Zhao Li swept away the previous haze, cheered up again and said.

Hearing this, Ye Yu was a little disappointed, it seemed that the information on Zhao Li's body was not enough to reach the level he wanted to know. Ye Yu patted Zhao Li's shoulder and said with a smile: "These things are not for us to consider, what we have to do is to cultivate hard in order to get ahead!"

Zhao Li also smiled and said, "That's right, only when your strength is strong can you be qualified to touch things at the upper level!"

Not long after, Oriental College appeared in the field of vision of the two, this day because it was a freshman living in the college, so the streets were full of people, many parents gave high hopes to send their children all the way to the college, and those freshmen were also proud to say that they wanted to become a strong Yunyun, for a while, it was also very lively.

"It's finally here, let's go and see which dormitory we're assigned to. When Zhao Li saw the Oriental Academy, he seemed to become excited, as if he had seen something beloved.

Ye Yu couldn't help but smile, what a simple little boy, so he had to follow him to the academy.

The two came to the gate, and a familiar person appeared in front of them.

Ye Yu couldn't help but greet: "Senior Li Tie, are you here to receive us back to the hospital today?"

Zhao Li originally didn't want to pay attention to Li Tie, with his identity, he didn't care about the existence of a small receptionist in the Oriental Academy, but when he saw that Ye Yu stopped to say hello, he had to stop, he didn't understand Ye Yu's approach in his heart.

Li Tie couldn't help but be stunned when he saw someone greeting him, and then after seeing the faces of Ye Yu and the two of them clearly, he replied: "You should be called Ye Yu, right?" Young Master Zhao is also here. That's right, I've always been in charge of the hospital's reception. After speaking, he nodded at Zhao Li, but the latter actually ignored him, and Li Tie was also slightly embarrassed.

Ye Yu saw all this, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Zhao Li's shelf was really big, his ability was not strong, and his momentum was not weak. Ye Yu smiled and said, "Senior Li Tie has a good memory, by the way, where should we go after we go in?"

Li Tie was very appreciative and satisfied with Ye Yu's behavior of respecting teachers, and said with a smile: "After entering the academy, the dormitory and class you were assigned to were announced on the bulletin board of the academy, and the more than four hundred freshmen were divided into five classes. ”

Ye Yu nodded at Li Tie and said, "Thank you seniors for informing us, then we will go in first." ”

"Hey, okay. Li Tie nodded with satisfaction.

After Ye Yu and Zhao Li walked into the gate of the academy, Zhao Li asked puzzledly, "Big brother, why do you waste time on that kind of person? He is just a small receptionist with a low status." ”

Hearing this, Ye Yu shook his head and said, "Xiao Lizi, this kind of thing is only good for respecting teachers, as the saying goes, one more friend is one less enemy, and you may understand in the future." Now that you are the young master of the Zhao family, it is normal for you not to understand. ”
