It turned out that in private, the patriarchs of these three families were very good in private, and they were not at all like the rumors outside, saying that the Wang and Zhao families had a long-standing grudge, which was all an illusion created in order to confuse other forces in Taiyuan City.

However, Wang Tianyi's temperament was relatively calm, and he said: "Let's go and see it first, Brother Gongsun won't joke with us." ”

While the three of them were talking, Gongsun Long had already opened the door in the secret room.

"Come in quickly, what's the hell out there?"

Gongsun Long, as an elder, as soon as he opened his mouth, even Zhao Yuancheng restrained his smile.

The three of them entered the room together.

"Uncle Gongsun, why are you in such a hurry to find us? Why didn't Brother Gongsun say a word about this? Wang Tianyi asked.

He noticed the young man Zhu Gui sitting in the only chair in the room, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

"Hey, who is this young man? Why don't you understand etiquette at all? Uncle Gongsun is so old, how can he let him stand and you sit alone? ”

Zhao Yuancheng's temperament is very arrogant, and he has always had no scruples when he speaks in private.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was beaten with a cane by Gongsun Long.

"Bastard boy, don't kneel down quickly, how dare you talk to the prince like this?" Gongsun Long was startled, and he didn't notice it for a while, which made Zhao Yuancheng almost break into a catastrophe.

Zhao Yuan still wanted to refute, he was obviously speaking for the old man, why was he still beaten by the old man? But when he heard the word 'prince', his face suddenly became shocked.

"Lord Wang? Uncle, you didn't lie to me, did you? How could this boy be ......?"

Before he finished his words, Gongsun Long's father and son grabbed his arm and pressed him to his knees.

"Bastard boy, are you looking for death? This is the acting king, and he still doesn't kowtow and admit his mistakes? Gongsun Long rebuked angrily.

"Huh? Generation, king? Zhao Yuancheng's eyes widened.

Fortunately, as the patriarch of the Zhao family, his knowledge and vision far exceed that of ordinary people, and he also knows some important things in Nanjing, plus the two of the Gongsun family are so excited, he has already affirmed seven points in his heart.

"Knock on the acting king, the villain was reckless for a while, and offended His Highness, please forgive Your Highness."

Saying that, Zhao Yuancheng began to kowtow.

Obviously, he also understood that what he had just committed was very bad, and if this prince was angry, he could use this reason to make the Zhao family disappear.

"Okay, this king doesn't mind, and this king and your son Zhao Tian can also be regarded as having a friendship, get up." Zhu Gui said with a smile.

But Zhao Yuancheng was already scared to the extreme, kneeling on the ground and not daring to get up.

Wang Tianyi on the side also asked Zhu Gui for peace.

Both of them had puzzled faces on their faces, not knowing why the acting king of the fiefdom in Yunzhou suddenly appeared in Taiyuan Mansion or in Gongsun's house.

So this time it was Gongsun Yun's turn to explain the direct matter to the two, but after the two of them relayed it, many details had been 'tampered with' beyond recognition, but Zhu Gui didn't bother to correct it.

After listening to Gongsun Long's words, Zhao Yuancheng and Wang Tianyi understood what was going on.

While they breathed a sigh of relief, they also realized that this was their family's opportunity, as long as they could hug the thigh of the acting king, then their future development could go further, even beyond the scope of Taiyuan City.

After the two of them digested this information, Zhu Gui said: "Just as the patriarch of Gongsun said, this king intends to cultivate your three major families and the descendants of your three families, of course, you can also choose to refuse, this king will not force you." ”

Zhao Yuancheng and Wang Tianyi glanced at each other with their spare eyes, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in their hearts, don't you 'force'? Is there a possibility that they will refuse?

The two said together: "I am willing to serve the power of dogs and horses for the prince." ”

Zhu Gui nodded, this matter can be regarded as a good start.

Although he also knew that he had completely relied on his identity to suppress the three patriarchs to agree to this matter, they would have some reluctance in their hearts.

However, Zhu Gui didn't care, as long as his plan could be implemented smoothly, he could completely 'kidnap' the three major families, so that they could see Zhu Gui's strength and at the same time, they would also take the descendants of their family as hostages, so that they would have no possibility of escaping.

So Zhu Gui told the three patriarchs the detailed plan, and then asked them to go back and prepare their own.

So today's grand banquet jointly organized by the three major families has been doomed from the beginning, the key is only how Zhu Gui wants to perform, even if he wants to completely sweep away the other forces in Taiyuan City, they are not able to resist at all.

It's just that Zhu Gui wants peaceful development and cracks down on diehards, and he doesn't want to do things too desperately.

After doing this, Zhu Gui stayed at Gongsun's house to wait for the banquet to begin, and at the same time chatted with Gongsun Long.

This old man is worthy of being a ruthless character who can be mixed in Taiyuan City, and his experience is very amazing even if it is Zhu Gui from later generations.

When Zhu Gui asked the other party's opinion of the King of Jin, Gongsun Long's opinion of him was also quite negative, especially his sneering at the other party's coup d'état.

In the words of the old man, the emperor today is majestic and strategic, as long as the other party is alive, the Ming Dynasty will be very stable, just like the Qin Shi Huang back then, the first emperor will not die, and the Great Qin will not be chaotic.

This evaluation can be said to be very high, but Zhu Gui also agrees with this very much, because he himself will also feel suppressed by the other party in his many contacts with Zhu Yuanzhang.

It's just a pity that Zhu Yuanzhang's age is too old, coupled with paranoia, directly let the flowers in the greenhouse, that is, Zhu Yunwen, be turned over by Zhu Di, the king of Yan, in a good situation.

If Zhu Yuanzhang can live for ten more years and let go of the cultivation of Zhu Yunwen even more, then Zhu Di will not have any chance at all.

It's a pity that there is no 'if' in history, with the exception of Zhu Gui, of course.

However, because of this, Zhu Gui still admires Gongsun Long who can see this clearly.

He even invited the other party to sit in Datong Mansion so that they could communicate more.

Zhu Gui knew that only by communicating more with these wise men could he better integrate into this era.

In this way, the old man and the young talked until it was dark and the next person came in to take charge of the lamp.

Then Gongsun Yun came in and invited the two of them to the banquet.

A huge courtyard in the courtyard of Gongsun's house was already full of tables, and at least hundreds of people had gathered in it.

And these people were only a small part of the banquet this time, and the others were arranged in other courtyards.

It can be seen that the prestige of the Gongsun family in Taiyuan, no one dares not to give face.
