Chapter 107: Another Attack
Because of the poisoning of the Duke of Zijin, the Xuanshui Empire was worried that other hostile countries would take this opportunity to commit crimes, so the guards at the gate of the imperial capital were very strict, especially those who entered the city, and if they were a little suspicious, they would be taken aside by the soldiers at the gate for interrogation and interrogation.

Even some imperial nobles, when they enter the city, they have to be interrogated for a long time, and the carriage has to be checked!
However, Ye Fei and his entourage, because Lin Xiaotian was there, were directly released.
This is not because Lin Xiaotian has a high title, but because Lin Xiaotian is a student of Duke Zijin, and Lin Xiaotian's backstage is Duke Zijin, these sergeants guarding the door are very clear, and they understand that Lin Xiaotian cannot be unfavorable to Duke Zijin, so after Lin Xiaotian revealed his identity, he didn't even ask, and let him go directly.
After entering the city, Ye Fei and the others, under the leadership of Lin Xiaotian, walked towards the Zijin Duke's mansion at the same time, Zhang Ming looked at Ye Fei and said, "Boss, when the Zijin Duke is saved, how about going to my house for a few days?"
Ye Fei thought to himself that it didn't matter to him where he lived anyway, Zhang Ming was probably homesick and ruthless, so it would be good to accompany him home for a few days, so he nodded with a smile and said, "It's okay!"
Lin Xiaotian didn't know that Zhang Ming was from the imperial capital, and after hearing the conversation between the two, he said to Zhang Ming: "Gongzi Zhang is also from the imperial capital?"
Whether Lin Xiaotian was dealing with Ye Fei, Zhang Ming and Ding Yun, he was very polite when he spoke.
Of course, there is no way to be polite, the identities of the three are not simple, and none of them can be offended by him.
Don't look at him as a hereditary marquis of the empire, the governor of a province, and a noble status, but in front of Xuantianmen, the number one faction in the empire, he is really nothing.
Zhang Ming smiled and nodded, "That's right!"
After Lin Xiaotian heard the affirmative answer, he said to Zhang Ming: "I don't know where Zhang Gongzi's house is, I can visit it when I have time!"
Whether it is Ye Fei, Zhang Ming and Ding Yun, Lin Xiaotian wants to make more friends, Xuantianmen is the number one faction in the empire, and being able to make friends with an important person in Xuantianmen is very important to a new type of nobleman like Lin Xiaotian.
Zhang Ming heard Lin Xiaotian ask, and said with a faint smile: "My house is easy to find, it's on Piaoling Street!"
"Oh, it's floating ......?" Lin Xiaotian was halfway through his words, when he suddenly couldn't say any more, and looked at Zhang Ming with a shocked expression.
What is the place of Piaoling Street, that is the closest street to the imperial city in the imperial capital!
There are no merchants on the entire street, but only four families live, one of which is the residence of the Duke of Zijin, and the other three are all the top nobles of the empire.
Among them, there is one family with the surname Zhang, which is the imperial wealthy Zhang family, known as the Rose family!
The Rose family is the largest wealthy family in the empire, the Prime Minister of the Empire, the Minister of Finance of the Empire, and the Vice-Minister of Finance of the Empire, all of which are from the Rose Family, but imagine what kind of existence the Rose Family is in the Xuanshui Empire.
If the Purple Gold Family can influence most of the Xuanshui Empire's army, then the Rose Family controls the economic lifeline of the entire empire.
Zhang Ming said that his family lives in Piaoling Street and his surname is Zhang, what does this mean, how could Lin Xiaotian not know?
After all, Lin Xiaotian was the governor of a province, and he quickly sobered up from the shock, and said to Zhang Ming in a more polite tone than just now: "I didn't expect Zhang Gongzi to be the son of the Rose family, I don't know which adult Zhang Gongzi's father is?"
If Lin Xiaotian was polite just now, he wanted to make friends with Xuantianmen, then now he is even more polite, he is afraid and admires the Rose family.
Lin Xiaotian knows very well what kind of existence the Rose family is, don't look at himself as a student of Duke Zijin, a hereditary marquis of the empire, and a governor of a province, but in front of the Rose family, it is nothing at all, if people want to deal with themselves, not to mention that the life and death of their teacher are unpredictable now, even if nothing happens, it is extremely simple.
Now what Lin Xiaotian wants to figure out most is Zhang Ming's identity in the Rose family, if it is from the side line, then forget it, but if it is from the lineage, it will be amazing, if he makes friends, even if his teacher has an accident, he can sit firmly as a governor.
Zhang Ming replied lightly: "The biggest one in the Zhang family!"
"The biggest one in the Zhang family?" Lin Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, who is the biggest one in the Zhang family, of course the current Prime Minister of the Empire, Duke Rose!
But didn't Duke Rose have only three sons? two of them, one was the Imperial Minister of Finance, one was the Vice-Chancellor of Taxation, and the other was the Vice President of the Imperial Royal Academy, so how could there be another son?
Could it be that Zhang Ming is not talking about the biggest status, but the eldest Zhang family?
Zhang Ming looked at Lin Xiaotian's puzzled face, knew what was going on, yawned and said: "Don't guess, my father is the Duke of Rose, it's not that I am my father's middle-aged son, and he has been living in my family fiefdom, so he doesn't show up much!"
When Lin Xiaotian heard Zhang Ming's words, the whole person was immediately stunned, Lin Xiaotian never thought that Zhang Ming was really the son of Duke Rose.
While Lin Xiaotian was shocked by Zhang Ming's identity, he couldn't help but admire Duke Rose more and more, others have always said that the lineage of the Rose family is weak, but he didn't expect that Duke Rose actually hid a son, and he didn't even know about himself, the hereditary marquis of the empire and the governor of a province.
After Ye Fei heard Zhang Ming's identity, he couldn't help but look at Zhang Ming with a hint of surprise in his heart, before Ye Fei only knew that Zhang Ming's family was very powerful in the empire, but Zhang Ming didn't say it, and Ye Fei was not interested in knowing, so he didn't ask, but Ye Fei didn't expect that Zhang Ming would be the son of Duke Rose.
Zhang Ming looked at the hint of surprise on Ye Fei's face, and said with a proud and proud expression: "Boss, are you shocked?
Ye Fei looked at Zhang Ming's proud appearance, and patted him directly on the head: "I know that I am a junior brother, and I still appear in front of me!"
Zhang Ming smiled, he didn't dare to reappear, for fear that Ye Fei would give him another look, Zhang Ming knew his boss very well, and others might be afraid of his identity as a noble son, but his boss didn't look at the worldly magnates at all, no matter how big the magnates were, in the eyes of their boss, they were estimated to be similar to cats and dogs on the side of the road.
Lin Xiaotian was shocked, and the guards around Lin Xiaotian were also shocked, none of them expected that Zhang Ming, Ye Fei's follower, would be the noble son of the first wealthy family in the empire.
Only Ding Yun and Zhang Ming's life experience, others don't know, but as the highest level of Xuantian Gate, how could he not know that what he had known for a long time shocked him.
Of course, even if Ding Yun didn't know, at most he would be a little surprised, although the number one wealthy family in the empire was noble, but Ding Yun, as the hall master of the Xuantian Gate, the first major faction of the Xuanshui Empire, the master of the birth wheel period, and the powerful in the secular world, was not in Ding Yun's eyes at all, unless it was the children of the top empires in the Tianlun Continent.
The city is divided into an inner city, an outer city, where commoners live, and an inner city, where only those with noble titles are allowed to live.
The outer city was very prosperous, and there were people coming and going on the streets, and it took Ye Fei and his party more than two hours to enter the inner city.
The inner city is home to more than half of the nobles of the entire Xuanshui Empire, except for a few high-end restaurants and jewelry shops, there are no other shops, of course, it is impossible to be as lively and prosperous as the outer city, except for the soldiers patrolling back and forth, there are few pedestrians on the road, and some are just luxurious carriages.
The closer you get to the inside, the closer you get to the Imperial City, the more luxurious the carriages become, and the larger the mansions on the roadside.
After entering the inner city, Ye Fei saw Zhang Ming riding a horse twisting and twisting, changing his posture, and wondered, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Ming smiled bitterly: "It's nothing, it's just that after entering the inner city, I feel uncomfortable!"
Ye Fei smiled faintly and said, "Where are you uncomfortable, you are homesick and cowardly!"
Timid in the middle of home?
When everyone heard this word for the first time, they couldn't help but look at Ye Fei with admiration, and Zhang Ming even slapped his ass and said: "The boss is the boss, and the hometown is timid, isn't that exactly what I feel in my heart now? ”
Ye Fei smiled: "You don't have to make sycophants, this is not something I came up with." ”
"It's not the boss you thought of it, it's whoever I've never heard of before. Zhang Ming said and pointed at Lin Xiaotian and said, "Look, they haven't heard of it either, boss, don't be modest!"
Lin Xiaotian echoed: "Yes, Ye Gongzi, don't be modest!"
Ye Fei saw that everyone didn't believe it, and he didn't bother to explain!
The group talked and chatted, and soon came to their destination, the Zijin Duke's Mansion located on Piaoling Street in the imperial capital!
The leader of the guards guarding the gate of the Zijin Duke's Mansion, as soon as he saw Lin Xiaotian coming, hurriedly asked people to open the gate and saluted at the same time: "Young Master Lin!"
Because Lin Xiaotian is Duke Zijin's favorite student, Duke Zijin treats Lin Xiaotian as a son, so the entire Duke of Zijin
