Chapter 174: The Family's Choice
Three days later, the crown prince of the Qianlong Empire came to the Shenwu Empire with more than fifty monks and a large group of retinues, but because the relationship between the Qianlong Empire and the Shenwu Empire is currently very tense, and the Qianlong Empire is not good at this time, the royal family only sent a diplomat, and none of the families in the imperial capital except for the Yuan family went to the gate of the imperial capital to meet the prince of the Qianlong Empire.
Although the other families did not have the city gate to greet them, they all sent personnel to investigate the lineup of monks of the Hidden Dragon Empire, and as a result, such a huge and spectacular lineup of the Hidden Dragon Empire still caused a huge sensation in the imperial capital, and at the same time, they also felt the huge pressure, and the patriarchs of each family went to the former princess's mansion as soon as possible to discuss with Wu Hanqi how to deal with the Hidden Dragon Empire.
Wu Hanqi looked at the main seat sitting in the living room, and looked at the patriarchs of those families present all frowning, Wu Hanqi was clear about the purpose of the Hidden Dragon Empire, not to mention that the dark abyss would never open again, even if it did, the conspiracy of the Hidden Dragon Empire would not succeed.
Wu Hanqi looked at the high-level members of the various families who were sitting there and discussing, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Everyone, please be quiet for a while." ”
As soon as Wu Hanqi's words fell, the living room immediately quieted down, Wu Hanqi looked at all the family leaders present, and then said: "Everyone, the Hidden Dragon Empire came to our Shenwu Empire so vigorously this time, it is not good, and its purpose is to achieve the goal of occupying our Shenwu Empire, so this time no matter what, we should all be in the same boat and unite to smash the conspiracy of the Hidden Dragon Empire." ”
Hearing Wu Hanqi's words, the head of the Song family was the first to stand up and said with a face full of regret: "Wu Gongzi! It's all about hanging up with the idea that it doesn't matter to us, and that the affairs of the empire have nothing to do with us. We just need to develop with peace of mind and use the imperial family as a puppet. ”
"Until this time after discovering the conspiracy of the Hidden Dragon Empire. Only then did we know that our family and the royal family are actually the same rope without grasshoppers, we and the royal family are one glory and one humiliation, if we can't completely smash the conspiracy of the Hidden Dragon Empire, we are afraid that these families will face the end of extermination. ”
The words of the Song family patriarch quickly resonated with the other dozen or so patriarchs, because they all knew very well that once the Shenwu Empire was occupied by the Hidden Dragon Empire, unless they spent all their money on their lives. Otherwise, what awaits them will be the way to extermination, as the patriarch of a thousand-year-old family, they absolutely do not want to see their family decline or even extinction in the hands of their generation, so at this moment they all pin their hopes on Wu Hanqi.
In the face of the self-hatred of more than a dozen family patriarchs, Wu Hanqi knew that these families gradually began to look at their Wu family, otherwise they would not find him in the first place, which was undoubtedly what Wu Hanqi was most happy to see, because from the day he wanted to control this country, he planned to base it on the dark abyss. Treat this country as a sect to prepare for his return to the Xuantian Continent in the future.
At this moment, Wu Hanqi finally spoke: "Everyone, I understand your feelings very well, although our Wu family is not the ruler of this empire, but Xuanyuan Zixuan is my woman. The Hidden Dragon Empire's bullying on Xuanyuan Zixuan's head is equivalent to bullying our Wu family's head, and it is naturally impossible for our Wu family to sit idly by. ”
"So rest assured. The conspiracy of our Wu family in the Qianlong Empire is destined to go bankrupt, and the so-called martial arts meeting friends proposed by the Qianlong Empire this time is the sole responsibility of our Wu family. When the time comes, if the Hidden Dragon Empire can keep its promise, forget it, if it can't keep its promise. I have to send someone to the Hidden Dragon Empire. ”
When they heard Wu Hanqi say that the Wu family was solely responsible for dealing with the provocation of the Hidden Dragon Empire, the patriarchs of these families were relieved, because in their eyes, only the Wu family could fight against those monks from the Hidden Dragon Empire, and then the head of the Lin family was the first to stand up and say: "Wu Gongzi! We are relieved to have your words, but we are not the kind of people who don't know what to do, Wu Gongzi, what do you need our family to do, it all depends on your words." ”
Wu Hanqi didn't expect the head of the Lin family to be so on the road, and said through the words of the head of the Lin family: "To deal with these monks of the Hidden Dragon Empire, our Wu family is completely able to deal with it, but I have an idea I want to tell you." ”
"The Hidden Dragon Empire is the strongest country around our Shenwu Empire, but it is not the strongest country on the Divine Abandon Continent, but it is precisely such a country that has the idea of aggression against our Shenwu Empire, which makes us feel the pressure increases dramatically, if we encounter a country that is more powerful than the Hidden Dragon Empire, we are afraid that we can only let it be slaughtered, so if we want to get rid of the situation of being bullied, the only way to make this country really strong, and whether a country can be strong, it still depends on everyone here. ”
The Hidden Dragon Empire sent a powerful team of monks to the Shenwu Empire to provoke, so that these families who had been working behind closed doors clearly realized how small their families were in front of the powerful Hidden Dragon Empire.
It can be said that this time the army of the Hidden Dragon Empire has greatly stimulated the high-level of these families, and they can't wait to become stronger, but thinking of the resources at the disposal of their family, the high-level of these families have abandoned it, and the head of the Song family said with a depressed face: "Young Master Wu! The reason why we have been in such a simple relationship with the royal family over the years is for the struggle for resources, just like this auction of the Treasure Pavilion, we have tried everything, but we can't auction a piece of mind, with the resources that our family has, it is almost impossible to become strong. ”
For the current situation of each family, Wu Hanqi can be said to know everything about it, otherwise he would not be so sure that he can subdue these families, he heard the words of the Song family patriarch, and asked: "I want to ask you a question, if I give you a chopstick, can you break it?"
"A chopstick! Not to mention us, even ordinary people can break it lightly. When the head of the Lin family heard Wu Hanqi's question, he was very puzzled by Wu Hanqi's purpose in asking this question, but he still answered Wu Hanqi's question seriously.
After Wu Hanqi heard the Lin family's answer, he then asked: "That's right! A chopstick can be broken lightly even by an ordinary child, if you are given a large handful of chopsticks, can you break it lightly?"
When the head of the Chen family heard Wu Hanqi's words, he immediately understood the meaning of Wu Hanqi's words, and asked suspiciously: "Hanqi! You mean that you want us families to unite, isn't this a superfluous problem? You must know that our families are currently in an alliance state. ”
"The concept of alliance in your heart is not the same thing as the concept of alliance in my mind, the alliance I think of is to gather all the cultivation materials of all the families together, and make every effort to cultivate the outstanding disciples in each family, only in this way can many powerful cultivators appear in everyone's family. ”
"And I also have a plan, I plan to integrate the Spiritual Academy and the Martial Academy of the Empire, establish the Shenwu Academy, and recruit students across the country, but the students recruited by the new academy are different from the past, the new academy does not look at the student's grade, what is valued is the student's talent, as long as you can pass the talent test of the Guò Academy, whether it is a disciple of the family or a civilian disciple, you can enter the Shenwu Academy to study. ”
"The students who are admitted to the Shenwu Academy, we will cultivate them as the ultimate power of the empire, and in order to support the development of the Shenwu Academy, our Wu family will provide some high-level mental methods and spiritual skills for students to cultivate, and after these students graduate, they will directly enter the empire's army to serve. ”
As Wu Hanqi said, although the family of the imperial capital is in a state of alliance, in fact, they are doing their own thing, although they know that concentrating all their resources to cultivate the disciples of each family can indeed make the young disciples of their family grow up quickly, but let them take out all the resources of the family and cultivate the disciples of each family, they are really a little reluctant, but they are very interested in Wu Hanqi's plan for the Shenwu Academy.
Guo Yunzhong, the head of the Guo family, opened his mouth and said to Wu Hanqi: "Wu Gongzi, I think your plan to establish the Shenwu Academy is very good, and our Guo family can take out half of the spirit stones of the annual income to support the operation of the new academy. ”
"Han Qi, our Chen family is also willing to give half of the spirit stones every year to support the operation of the new academy. Chen Zhongning, the head of the Chen family, had exactly the same idea as Guo Yunzhong, the head of the Guo family, and immediately expressed his willingness to support Wu Hanqi to establish a new college.
After the statements of the Guo family and the Chen family, other families all expressed their positions, but Wu Hanqi was very disappointed, at this moment he clearly realized that among the interests of the family and the interests of the country, these families still chose the interests of the family, which made Wu Hanqi completely have the idea of giving up these families and decided to train monks among the commoners.
"Childe, the Queen, please enter the palace immediately!" Just when Wu Hanqi was disappointed by the family's choice, the green snake walked in from outside and reported to Wu Hanqi respectfully.
Wu Hanqi heard the report of the green snake, stood up from the front of his seat, and said: "Zixuan is looking for me to enter the palace! It is estimated that it is related to the affairs of the Hidden Dragon Empire, since this is the case, then I will go to the palace first." ”
Looking at the figures of the patriarchs of those families who disappeared from sight, Wu Hanqi's face immediately sank, and he said to himself: "I have given you a chance, but you don't cherish it, since this is the case, then I can only give up on you." ”
"Green Snake, in my name, send a name card to the two deans of the Lingwu Academy and the Martial Arts Academy, saying that I will invite them to the house for dinner tonight, and at the same time have something to discuss with them. (To be continued......)
