Chapter 370: Clan
Na Mingquan hurriedly said: "The little one is ordered by His Majesty the Imperial Emperor to come to visit His Excellency the Duke!"
"What's the matter?"
Ming Quan hurriedly said: "After a month, the Seventh Prince will get married, and His Majesty wants to invite the Holy Master to watch the ceremony!"
"Got it!" Zhang Chenfeng nodded and said, "You go back and tell Your Majesty that if I have time, I will go there." ”
After Zhang Chenfeng finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Mingquan and helped his mother to walk inside.
After Ming Quan watched Zhang Chenfeng leave, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, if he could pass the word, his task would be completed, and as for whether Zhang Chenfeng would go or not, it was none of his business.
As for Zhang Chenfeng's careless attitude when he first answered, whether it was rude, he didn't pay attention to it at all, because Zhang Chenfeng had the qualifications to ignore the royal family.
After Zhang Chenfeng helped Mrs. Zhang into the hall, he said to Mrs. Zhang: "Mother, are you looking for me to come back this time?"
Although Zhang Chenfeng has not been with Mrs. Zhang's mother for a long time, he knows how much he thinks of his mother, and he cultivates in the Heavenly Sword Sect, if there is nothing wrong, he will definitely not easily call himself back.
Mrs. Zhang sighed slightly and said, "That's right, Chen'er, the clan sent a letter saying that they sent someone over, and it is estimated that they will arrive tomorrow!"
"Clan?" Zhang Chenfeng's face turned cold all of a sudden, Zhang Chenfeng knew very well about his family's origin, it was not the local family of the Tianhuo Empire at all, but a branch of a big family that migrated from the Shining Empire, one of the three major powers in the southern territory, more than five hundred years ago.
The Zhang family that stayed in the Shining Empire was the clan of the Zhang family, Zhang Chenfeng did not have any good impression of this clan, from the memory of the defeated family who accepted, that clan would send someone over every five years, and every time he came, the wealth of the Zhang family would shrink by more than half, which was also one of the main reasons why the Zhang family was difficult to develop before.
Most of the wealth has been confiscated by the clan, and it is strange that the Zhang family can develop.
Now that the clan is here again, what are you here to do, it must be here to scrape.
If it was the previous Zhang Chenfeng, there would definitely be no way to take the clan, the other party wanted to collect the scrape, so he could only let the other party collect the scrape, but the current Zhang Chenfeng is not the former loser Zhang Chenfeng, now the Zhang family's money is their own money, this clan came to collect the scrape, isn't this robbing from their own hands?
In the past, Mrs. Zhang, if the clan came, she would definitely honestly let the clan collect it, anyway, she could leave the money that Zhang Chenfeng squandered, it was because Zhang Chenfeng was a loser in the past, and no matter how much money she had, it was useless, but now it is different, her son has become a talent and a martial artist, and he must need a lot of resources.
Of course, Mrs. Zhang is unwilling because Mrs. Zhang has the confidence, and she was left to the clan in the past, in addition to Zhang Chenfeng's incompetence, more importantly, the Zhang family is too weak in front of the clan, but the current Zhang family is not the previous Zhang family, her son has not only become the junior brother of the two Wuzun, but also the hereditary duke of the empire.
After Zhang Chenfeng heard that the clan was coming, he sneered in his heart and said to Mrs. Zhang: "Mother, just leave this matter to me!"
Mrs. Zhang nodded, she asked Zhang Chenfeng to come back, and let Zhang Chenfeng deal with this matter.
The people of the Zhang clan came faster than expected, and in the evening of the same day, more than a dozen warriors rode fast horses under the leadership of a young man in gorgeous costumes to the gate of Qinglei City.
Looking at the gate of Qinglei City in front of him, the young man in a gorgeous costume asked a martial artist beside him, "Ye Lin, is this Qinglei City?"
The martial artist named Ye Lin hurriedly replied respectfully: "Yes, Sixth Young Master, this is Qinglei City!"
This group of people is the person of the Zhang family's clan, this young man in Chinese clothes is called Ye Haitao, who is the young master of the clan, ranking sixth among all the descendants of the Zhang family.
And he is not an ordinary young master, he is one of the sons of the patriarch of the Zhang family, and he is the descendant of the Zhang family, plus he is already a cyclone consummation at a young age, and his status in the Zhang family clan is far higher than that of other sons-in-law.
As for the warrior named Ye Lin, it was the Zhang family clan that came out to collect the various branches to worship.
Ye Haitao said to the martial artist again: "I heard that this branch of Qinglei City is quite rich, but I don't know how it is developing?"
Ye Lin hurriedly replied: "The head of this branch has been missing for more than ten years, and it is a bit of a decline, and the funds handed over last time are thirty percent less than before!"
"Thirty percent less?" Ye Haitao smiled coldly and said: "What is this waste branch still going to do, since the family is missing, then simply take back all the wealth of this branch to the family, what else is there to do?"
Ye Lin smiled bitterly: "Sixth Young Master, there is still a son left in that branch of the family, according to the rules of the family elders......"
Ye Lin was halfway through his words, looking at the cold eyes of the sixth young master, he remembered that his sixth young master, in order to compete for the qualification of the heir, was desperately collecting money and scraping resources to advance, although the branch of Qinglei City has declined, but the branch of Qinglei City is rich, and there are millions of gold coins every time it is handed over.
If the entire Qinglei City branch is cleaned up, there will be no problem at all to get a few million taels, a few million taels is not a small amount of money, and it would be strange if the sixth young master was not moved.
Anyway, he has already decided to take refuge in the Sixth Young Master, since the Sixth Young Master has decided, then just do as instructed, thinking of this, Ye Lin hurriedly changed his words and said: "My subordinates are willing to listen to the arrangement of the Sixth Young Master!"
If it is a branch close to the clan, no matter how weak it is, no matter how declining, Ye Lin will never dare to agree with the opinion of this sixth young master, but a small branch far away from the clan will not have so many scruples, if the other party does not resist, forget it, if it resists, it will be completely destroyed, as long as it is done cleanly, there will be no problem, anyway, the family's inspector will not patrol here.
Ye Lin was not worried that the subordinates he brought would tell him about it, his subordinates were all his carefully selected henchmen, and they would never dare to betray themselves.
When Ye Haitao heard Ye Lin's words, he nodded with satisfaction, and then led everyone towards the city.
After the group entered the city, under the leadership of Ye Lin, they walked straight towards Zhang's house.
Ye Lin had been to Qinglei City, so he knew where the Zhang family in Qinglei City was, and the group soon came to the door of Zhang's house.
The guards at the door of Zhang's house saw this group of people stopped at the door, these guards were immediately angry, since their young master worshiped the Heavenly Sword Gate and became the Duke of the Empire, even if they were imperial nobles, they would dismount after coming to the vicinity of this ancestral house, and these people still rode on their horses when they arrived at the door, which was simply an insult to the Zhang family.
