In the center of the floating city of the Xia Kingdom sits a golden palace, which is the capital of the Xia Kingdom and the palace of the Xia Kingdom. Because the two old men who are facing each other are not other officials, but the two previous heads of the Qin family and the Liu family among the four great families of the Xia Kingdom, aside from the power of the families behind the two of them, the cultivation of the two of them alone has also reached the realm of high-level martial arts, not to mention that the two of them have mastered most of the forces of the Xia Kingdom.

"Let me tell you that my surname is Liu, if my son has any three longs and two shorts this time, I will definitely not let go of your Liu family. Qin Li shouted at Liu Mao with a fierce expression, although his son fell out with him for a woman back then, but his own flesh and blood are still close, and over the years, he has gradually understood that he was indeed wrong back then, and his eldest son is indeed angry, so in recent years, he has also begun to care about his son's situation.

"Cut, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, in case your son accidentally dies at the hands of the Winter Country, then do my Liu family's bird business, if you want to blame your son for not being good at learning. Liu Mao did not show weakness and replied to Qin Li.

"Grass, old guy Liu, this time your son deliberately delayed my son's backup, how should you calculate this account?"

"Woe!" Liu Mao was dumbfounded when he heard this, and secretly cursed in his heart that his youngest son's brain was in water, and he was actually caught by the Qin family to attack his Liu family, didn't he know the relationship?

"Old fellow Qin, you said that it was my son who delayed your son's reinforcements, who can prove this? I also said that your son himself is not capable? I let Cloud City fall in a short time, I still doubt that your son has some collusion with the Winter Kingdom?" Liu Mao said with a heartfelt expression, if people who didn't know who he was would really believe what he said when they saw this scene.

"You fart, my Qin family has been loyal to the country for generations, and I also said that your Liu family has colluded with the thieves of the Winter Kingdom, otherwise why did you deliberately delay my son's reinforcements, you have ill intentions, please think twice!"

"You fart, Your Majesty, Weichen is really wronged! I think that my Liu family has been loyal and good for generations, how could I do such a big rebellious thing, please Your Majesty help Weichen clear this grievance!"

Zheng Chenggong saw the expressions of the two people in front of him shouting grievances, and his head suddenly became bigger, this scolding is not, it is not, once he speaks, he will inevitably offend one, this is simply not a person inside and out.

"Your Majesty, the ministers think that this incident in Cloudsdale is a bit strange. An old man suddenly stepped forward.

"It's over, it's getting messy. After Zheng Chenggong saw the appearance of the second elder, his head was even bigger, grandma drop, did he not look at feng shui in the last dynasty today? Because the person who stood up and spoke was actually the head of the Zhang family, Zhang Xiaotian.

After Qin Li saw that the person who spoke was Zhang Xiaotian, his brows suddenly furrowed, because he knew that the daughter of the Liu family was the wife of the current head of the Zhang family, and Liu Mao saw Zhang Xiaotian speak, and immediately smiled, after all, it was his own in-laws, and he must have spoken for himself, but Zhang Xiaotian's next words surprised the two.

"Your Majesty, according to the news from the border, this time the Winter Kingdom has dispatched a full three routes of soldiers and horses, one of the armies is frontal, and the other two armies are sneak attacks, it can be seen how much blood the Winter Kingdom has made this time, and General Qin only has a vanguard battalion stationed in Yunzhong City, it is not easy to hold the three, according to the distance from Longhua City to Yunzhong City, Weichen thinks that if the army marches rapidly, it should be possible to arrive within one day, but why does General Qin's men and horses take two days to arrive, there must be something strange in this. ”

Although Zhang Xiaotian did not explain what he meant in his words, how could an official who could go to the court be a fool? Naturally, they could hear the meaning of Zhang Xiaotian's words, and what surprised them was that Zhang Xiaotian had not always stood in the Liu family? Why did he actually stand on the side of the Qin family to speak this time? Isn't this Zhang family and the Liu family intimate?

When Qin Li heard Zhang Xiaotian's words, he was stunned at first, and the next moment his brows were even tighter, and he looked at Zhang Xiaotian, as if he wanted to see something from his expression, but unfortunately the latter still maintained an indifferent attitude, as if those words just now didn't come out of his mouth.

"Could it be?" Qin Li suddenly had a piece of news in his mind, that is, in the news passed back from the secret agent he hid in the youngest son's army, he had mentioned one thing, that is, a mysterious master suddenly appeared in the Tiger Regiment, and the information of this master was also learned through his investigation that it was actually a "special" descendant of the Zhang family, yes, if this is the case, then Zhang Xiaotian's behavior is not surprising.

After Zhang Xiaotian saw the change in the expression on Qin Li's face, he secretly said in his heart: "This old guy is really powerful, he actually saw my purpose so quickly, no matter what, this favor should be enough for your son to take care of my grandson in the army, this damn little thing, actually kicked such a genius out of the house as a waste, and he had to repair it when he went back." ”

Zhang Bingwu, who was standing behind Zhang Xiaotian, suddenly shuddered, and his heart became inexplicable, could it be that he was suffering from the wind cold? What are you kidding? A person who is a beginner martial arts cultivator will suffer from the wind cold? Zhang Bingwu had no idea that he would be scolded by his father when he returned home.

Liu Mao's mouth was wide open, and he looked at Zhang Xiaotian with a completely disbelieving expression, if he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would have thought that Zhang Xiaotian was joking with him.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the court was a little weird, the emperor did not speak, and the civil and military officials in the court were all stunned, but after a while, the hundred officials of the three forces also set their eyes on the representatives of their respective forces, as long as their top boss said a word, they were ready to attack.

Zheng Chenggong's eyes swept over the faces of Liu Mao, Qin Li, and Zhang Xiaotian one by one, and he also pondered in his mind what the meaning of Zhang Xiaotian's move was today? Could it be that there was any contradiction between the Liu family and the Zhang family? It is impossible? If the Zhang family and the Liu family really had any contradictions, then it is impossible for him not to know about it! Since there is no contradiction between the Zhang family and the Liu family, then why would the Zhang family help the Qin family today? Is there any kind of trick in this?

"Could it be that mysterious young guy?" Zheng Chenggong suddenly remembered the latest piece of news about the Tiger Regiment that he got last night, that is, when the Tiger Regiment was about to be wiped out in the vanguard camp in Cloud City, a high-level martial arts master from the Tiger Regiment turned the situation around, and finally helped Qin Xiaotian successfully break through, could it be that Zhang Huaming is a member of the Zhang family? If this is the case, then Zhang Xiaotian's move is reasonable, after all, the western border is the territory of the Qin family.

"Everyone, now that the Pioneer Battalion of the Tiger Regiment has successfully broken through, as for this matter, let's put it aside, after repelling the Winter Kingdom attack this time, I am investigating the truth, how about I give the three elders a satisfactory answer?"

"Obey the Divine Commandment. Zhang Xiaotian, Liu Mao, and Qin Li said in unison.

Qin Li also compromised when he heard the emperor's words, although he grabbed the small handle of the Liu family today, but he also knew that this handle could not reach the death of the Liu family, so naturally he would not force it too tightly, after all, it was urgent, and it was not beneficial for both parties.

And Liu Mao was originally caught by Qin Li with a little braid, and when he heard the emperor's words at this moment, he was naturally happy, not to mention that the attitude of the Zhang family seemed to be a little wrong, and he had to quickly ask his daughter, whether she had any conflict with the Zhang family, and had to solve the problem as soon as possible, in case the Zhang family and the Qin family really stood on the same front, then the Liu family was in danger, you must know that the military power held by the Qin family is no different from that of the Liu family, and the Zhang family is in control of the lifeblood of the Xia country's finances.

Zhang Xiaotian originally didn't want to get involved in the struggle between the Liu family and the Qin family, it was his son who came out in the past, and sometimes he couldn't say a few words, and it was also a family relationship anyway, but this time he changed his position in order to give a good impression to the famous grandson in the army.

"Spread my message, ordered Guan Yuan to be the general of the expedition, and commanded all the way to Longhua City to join the Tiger Regiment to hold Longhua City, and ordered Tianyuan to be the general of the expedition, and led all the way to Shanhaiguan to meet with the Knights, and hold the Shanhai Pass, if that side is defeated, there is no need to return to Beijing. ”

"I respectfully obey Your Majesty's commandment. The Chinese military officials said in unison.

"Retreat. Zheng Chenggong waved his hand and left.

"Hmph!" Liu Mao and Qin Li glared at each other and then walked away, and the officials of the forces on both sides saw their masters leaving, so they naturally followed and left, and in just a few breaths, the court was empty.

Zhang Xiaotian watched the two groups of people from the Liu family and the Qin family leave, with a little playful smile on his face, but unfortunately there was a voice that destroyed his Yaxing at this moment.

"Father, why are you talking about it now?"

When Zhang Xiaotian heard his son's question, his original good mood was suddenly destroyed, and he turned his head to his son with an angry expression and shouted: "Useless waste, go back and clean you up." ”

Zhang Wubing was inexplicably drunk by his own son, full of confusion, and when he saw the back of his father leaving, he hurriedly followed with an aggrieved expression.

After Zhang Xiaotian returned home, he only issued an order, that is, Zhang Huaming's biological mother Wang's name was recorded in the family tree, this order caused an uproar in the Zhang family, you must know that the person who was recorded in the family tree is also meant to really enter the family, and like Zhang Huaming's mother Wang If it is not recorded in the family tree, then in the Zhang family is just a subordinate, even if her son is the biological flesh and blood of the head of the family, she is also a subordinate, but now it is different, Wang's name is recorded in the family tree, which means that she is now the second wife of the Zhang family, and she is fully qualified to sit on an equal footing with the current wife of the Zhang family, Liu, especially her son, who will also have the right to fight for inheritance rights in the future.

And Zhang Bingwu was summoned by his father into the study after an hour after leaving, his first order out of the study was to let the Wang family live in the West Courtyard, his order in the original shock of the Zhang family once again set off an uproar, you must know that the West Courtyard is only the head of the family is qualified to live, and the Zhang family master's order means that the wife of this room is recognized.

"Could it be that I have really lost my eyes all these years?" Zhang Wubing, who walked out of the study, still echoed in his mind the news that his father said in the study, he really couldn't believe that the child he gave birth to at that time after drinking and messing with his surname was actually a genius-like existence, a high-level martial sect? Oh my God! How old is he? If he remembers correctly, that kid should not be yet sixteen years old this year, right? Sixteen years old has reached the high-level martial arts sect cultivation, what a demon this is! There is no doubt that he has reached such heights at such a young age, and there is no need to think about what kind of heights he will reach in the future, he is very confident that once this kid returns home, then his status in the heart of the old ancestor of the family will definitely be higher than himself.
