handed over the money bag to the evil soul, Ren Tianxiang left the restaurant, and he didn't even finish his own wine.

The evil soul wanted to refuse, but Ren Tianxiang handed over the money to him reluctantly.

Twenty gold coins is nothing to Ren Tianxiang, but these twenty gold coins can turn the lives of him and his sister upside down.

Ren Tianxiang hoped to help the evil soul, but in fact, he didn't know why. Was it because the Evil Broken Soul's feelings for his sister moved Ren Tianxiang? Ren Tianxiang felt that it was not, obviously he was not the kind of person who would sympathize with the strange day.

It was because of this abnormality that Ren Tianxiang became interested in the Evil Broken Soul, and he thought that it should be because of this reason that he was willing to help the Evil Broken Soul, although this kind of help was not good for Ren Tianxiang himself.

After leaving the tavern, Ren Tianxiang went back to the inn directly, lest he leave for a long time, and Ren Tianqing, the girl, lost her temper again.

And on the way back to the inn, he also specially dealt with the smell of alcohol on his body, although he didn't drink much, but he couldn't hope that Ren Tianqing wouldn't smell such a little bit of wine.

He was afraid that Ren Tianqing would lose his temper, which was not something ordinary people could bear. I can't say it, I can't beat it, Ren Tianxiang can only watch Ren Tianqing lose his temper, maybe he will have to comfort others in the end.

In line with the principle that more is better than less, Ren Tianxiang checked all the suspicious points that might appear on his body, and after making sure that there was nothing missing, he went upstairs and went to the original Xingbei's room, which was now their conference room.

While going upstairs, Ren Tianxiang was still thinking about what he had just heard from the evil broken soul.

He knew that Hongyi City was the fief of the Li family.

According to the rules of the Star Emperor Kingdom, there are two kinds of knighted nobles, one is an honorary title and the other is a hereditary title.

Honorary titles are generally given to meritorious heroes, but no matter which of the five titles of the prince and prince is male, there will be no fief, but the empire will only support it, and this title belongs to the individual, and his descendants cannot inherit it.

Hereditary titles are different when you hear the name. Hereditary counts, viscounts, and barons, like honorary nobles, are supported by the empire and have no fiefs, with the only difference being that titles can be hereditary. Hereditary marquis and hereditary duke have fiefs, hereditary marquis is a city, and hereditary duke is a province.

Of course, even if it is a fief, these two nobles only have the right to collect taxes and a certain degree of administrative power, which seems to be very powerful, but they are controlled by the court of the Star Emperor.

And even if it is a hereditary marquis, it is still a big family, and there are only the Guangyacheng Chen family on the border, the Li family of Hongyi City and the Lin family of Mingzhi City, not to mention the hereditary duke, this kind of title has not appeared for nearly a hundred years.

Thinking about it, what really made these nobles corrupt and degenerate should be the lost administrative power in their hands. Hongyi City is the fief of the Li family, and the head of the Li family has always held the position of the city lord, which gives the Li family a little more say in Hongyi City.

Is it the darkness of aristocratic rule?

Thinking of this, Ren Tianxiang smiled bitterly in his heart. This problem is not something he can solve, and it would be good to tell Xinglian about this later.

Thinking wildly, he walked to the door of the conference room. Knocked lightly on the door, indicating his identity, and after getting the consent of Xuanyuan Liuli inside, Ren Tianxiang gently pushed the door open and walked in.

At this time, the three members of the team were all there, and even Xinglian and Ren Tianling were discussing something with Xuanyuan Liuli. But Ren Tianxiang is like a bastard, the kind that can't see people when he is in a meeting.

"Brother, where have you been?" Seeing Ren Tianxiang walking into the conference room with a breezy expression, Ren Tianqing seemed to be a little unhappy and asked directly.

"Well, I went to see a friend. Facing Ren Tianqing, Ren Tianxiang decisively covered up the fact that he went to drink.

"Friend?" Ren Tianling seemed to be interested in Ren Tianxiang's statement, so she also asked, "Have you been to Hongyi City before?"

"I've been here, but not much. Ren Tianxiang also sat in his place at this time, because he had passed Ren Tianqing, so he now felt a sense of relief, "I used to do the task given by the master, it seems that I helped the inspection department and dealt with a corrupt official." ”

"It turns out that you did it. Ren Tianling had a look of sudden realization, "I said why can't I find anyone, the court still has a tight blockade of news." ”

Ren Tianxiang shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything more. In this way, the topic of going out has basically been passed over, and everything is fine.

And just when Ren Tianxiang was sitting comfortably on the chair, ready to let Xuanyuan Liuli continue the topic before he came, Ren Tianqing, who was lowering his head on the side, suddenly said gloomily:

"Brother, what the hell are you doing out there?"

"Huh?" Ren Tianxiang's eyes widened, with an incredulous expression. How did this girl see it?

"You can't lie at all, I can tell. Because Ren Tianxiang was hiding from himself, the dull hair on Ren Tianqing's head slowly stood up again, "Did you go out to drink?" ”

Regarding Ren Tianqing's feelings, Ren Tianxiang really has nothing to say. Obviously, he had prepared everything foolproof, but he was still seen by Ren Tianqing. Is it really as Ren Tianqing said, does she know herself too well?

Knowing that he had nothing to hide in front of Ren Tianqing, Ren Tianxiang also nodded as if he was fated and admitted that he had gone to drink.

Sure enough, Ren Tianqing still retains the impression of five years ago about Ren Tianxiang's drinking. She slowly raised her head, stared at Ren Tianxiang with distress on her face, and said:

"Your body...... Isn't it impossible to drink?"

"Well, I didn't tell you this, because of the awakening ability, my body is much better, and I don't have pain all over my body from drinking. ”

"Then why don't you tell me?" Ren Tianqing's eyes stared at Ren Tianxiang's eyes, which made the latter feel a little scared in his heart.

The corners of Ren Tianxiang's mouth twitched, and then he immediately smiled and explained, "Uh, isn't it that there has never been a chance?"

"Then why didn't you say it when you went?" Ren Tianqing asked Ren Tianxiang as if he was drilling the tip of a bull's horn, "You can obviously tell us to go again, I used to be so strict with you, and it wasn't for the sake of your body, since your body is no longer uncomfortable with alcohol, I won't stop you." Brother, is it because you have been separated for five years that you don't believe me anymore?"

It wasn't until Ren Tianqing asked the last sentence that Ren Tianxiang finally understood the crux of the problem.

The two brothers and sisters have been separated for five years, and in the past five years, Ren Tianqing has been looking for Ren Tianxiang, but Ren Tianxiang has been studying with Xuanyuan Qingtian like no one, and he has not even had the idea of contacting his family.

Five years later, the brother and sister reunited, Ren Tianxiang has changed a lot, and has become a look that Ren Tianqing is no longer familiar with, don't look at this girl who is very arrogant with Ren Tianxiang, but she still feels the sense of distance between herself and Ren Tianxiang in her heart - they don't want to be so close anymore. And the reason for this problem is because Ren Tianqing's impression of Ren Tianxiang is still stuck five years ago.

Today, she made this question clear, because she wanted to clarify this issue with Ren Tianxiang.

It doesn't matter what her brother controls, she just likes to be by Ren Tianxiang's side. If his impression of Ren Tianxiang is outdated, then he will re-understand his brother.

Thinking of this, Ren Tianxiang couldn't help but smile.

He rubbed Ren Tianqing's head behind him, and said gently: "Maybe I've changed a lot, maybe I've become different from the one I had five years ago, but what I haven't changed is that I'm still your brother." ”

Hearing Ren Tianxiang say this, a smile finally appeared on Ren Tianqing's face. She nodded heavily, and the dull hair on her head also fell.

"Ahem. Xinglian on the side really couldn't stand the sensationalism of these two brothers and sisters here, so she coughed twice and changed the topic in another direction, "Tianxiang, I seemed to have something on mind when I saw you enter the room before." ”

After Xinglian's reminder, Ren Tianxiang remembered what he wanted to react to Xinglian, so he immediately told Xinglian what he had learned from the Evil Broken Soul that had caused the Evil Broken Soul to be completely lost.

After listening to Ren Tianxiang's story, Xinglian nodded and said in a deep voice: "Well, I know this kind of thing. Then you don't have to pay attention to it, the court has its own means for these nobles. Okay, I don't think it's too early, let's go back to the room. Rest early and recharge. ”
