Chapter 187: The target is directed at the Twelve Heavenly Officials
The general manager himself thought he was a clever hunter, but he definitely didn't expect that times had changed, and the appearance of Milan had already sounded the death knell for these people.
"Ye Tian, when you get that painting, you will understand that Ma Guifei has bad intentions, and she wants to use this painting to destroy her enemies."
These words hit the nail on the head, but the root of the problem did not lie with Concubine Ma, but with the Eight Sages King.
I made it clear what I meant: "Boss, in fact, you and Concubine Ma should have reconciled a long time ago." Look at the situation in the capital today, you occupied Ma Guifei's villa, how many people applauded, they didn't want to support you, but felt that it was time to divide the territory again. β
I don't need to say these words, even smart people can see them.
After a long silence, the chief steward put down the fish food in his hand and turned back with a smile on his face.
"Ye Tian, I have a private matter to ask you for, come with me."
The two of us went into the basement one after the other, handed the phone to the person next to us, and then entered a secret room with a high level of communication barrier.
Speaking here, no one will be able to eavesdrop.
"Ye Tian, I don't care how much territory there is in the capital, I only care where my ceiling is? It is the Eight Sages King. β
In the first sentence, the chief manager revealed his intentions, if he wanted to break through the ceiling, he had to overthrow the Eight Sage Kings.
I listened silently as the chief steward walked up and down in front of me......
"The Eight Sages King is high, and for so many years, we have paid tribute to him. Times have changed, he must step down, what do you say? β
According to my analysis, the power of the Grand Administrator has swelled to a certain extent, and his heart will also change greatly.
This is no longer a matter of ambition, but of hegemony.
Next, he showed me some information, all of which were some ideas after killing the Eight Sages.
At that time, he replaced the Eight Sages King, and the underworld had to bow to him.
All I can say is that the Grand Manager is thinking too far ahead and is unrealistic.
In this extremely secretive environment, everyone can tell the truth, after all, it will not be spread.
"Ye Tian, what did Concubine Ma give you? How about you being dead set on her, and I can give it to you twice as much, and stand on my side? β
It's an old question, and he thinks I can bow to him as long as I have enough money and power.
It's just completely wrong, I came to the capital with a clear purpose, and whoever helps me more will follow.
The Archsteward now seems to be powerful, but he is actually a dying man.
The Eight Sages King can close the net at any time, and he will be finished.
"Boss, I just want to know what your ultimate goal is? Even if he replaces the Eight Sages King, he will always be incorrect and unspeakable, and it will not be famous for eternity. β
The chief steward was silent for a while, and then said a nameβ"Twelve Heavenly Officials." β
Under him, there are three divisions and twelve officials, but they are different from the legendary "Twelve Heavenly Officials of the Rivers and Lakes".
"Ye Tian, for the Eight Sages King, the one who can really threaten his status is the Twelve Heavenly Officials. In the past few years, he has spent a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources to find the Twelve Heavenly Officials, with two purposes, one is to subdue them, and the second is to eliminate them. In short, if he wants to do these things, you partner with Milan and the end goal is definitely them. β
This is destructive news, with the strength of the Eight Sages King, he can barely cope with Ma Guifei or the Grand Administrator, if he wants to eliminate the legendary Twelve Heavenly Officials, then he is too far behind.
The chief manager sneered: "There are always some people who don't think they can control the entire rivers and lakes, but that is a huge mistake. β
We were all silent, and none of us knew the true intentions of the Eight Sages.
At this moment, if I am instructed by Ma Guifei, I can kill the chief manager without anyone witnessing, and I will be done.
I didn't do that, and he judged that I wouldn't do that, so he came to this secret room.
I gave him a word of advice: "Never rebel against the Eight Sages, or you will die without a place to be buried." The royal weather, the mighty, ordinary rivers and lakes, how can they be their opponents? β
Regarding my words, the chief manager deeply agreed: "Ye Tian, what kind of conditions are offered to make you stand on my side?" β
I didn't answer, and strode out of the chamber......
This brief meeting made all kinds of gossip in the capital more and more chaotic, and many people thought that I was stepping on multiple boats, left and right, and exquisite, which would be a nightmare for all the people in the rivers and lakes.
It may happen, but I don't think I'll ever be king.
The tragic fate of my parents has clearly told me that the rivers and lakes are vicious, and it seems that the scenery is beautiful, but in fact, if there is a slight negligence, the family will be ruined.
The reason why I came to see the chief manager was to let those informants release the news, and I wanted to be a peacemaker, and I would not take sides and reassure them.
The chief manager's mention of the Twelve Heavenly Officials made me feel palpitations, these long-lost gangs in the rivers and lakes, once they appeared, they would set off a new round of bloody storms.
On the way back to the courtyard, I made a detour to the north and east.
This is the territory of the Seven Princes, and now that it is out of control, the Jianghu characters will have to fight against all forces if they want to retake this place.
I got out of the car and stood at the junction of the east and north, leisurely observing the surroundings.
There are many flagship stores of international brands gathered here, and pedestrians are well-dressed and all kinds of luxury cars are busy......
The underworld forces are entrenched in this kind of high-end territory, and they can always find opportunities to make a fortune.
I suddenly felt that letting the Ninth Princess take charge of this place was the best choice.
She's not smart enough to come up with complicated ways to manage this place, she's just going to let it grow wild.
This is the highest level of the business model, the more there is no strong management, the more free development and liberation of nature.
I really hope that the capital will be full of freedom, and there will be no more vendettas, and even these gangs will disappear.
A luxury car stopped next to me, and the window glass was lowered, it was the Nine Princesses.
Her face was full of spring breeze, and she was very proud: "Ye Tian, what are you doing standing here?" Do you want to manage this place instead of the Seventh Father-in-law? β
We laughed at the same timeβ
I got into her car, and according to the introduction of the ninth princess, when the seventh princess died, she volunteered to manage the place, and whenever she needed it, she would hand it over.
"Ye Tian, there are not so many fights and killings in the world, a person only has one life, and if he dies, it will be over."
I haven't seen her for a few days, and the ninth princess's insights are much more sophisticated.
Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black, and after continuous experience, they can already be independent.
All I thought about was the painting and what everyone was expecting from it.
Unexpectedly, in the villa of the Nine Princesses, I saw it again.
"Ye Tian, there are good things for everyone to share, I found it from where you live, and I brought it back."
This is the robber logic of the Nine Princesses, she believes that all the good things in the world can be plundered at will, and there are no rules to speak of.
As soon as I left the courtyard, she sent someone over and brought the painting over in a grand manner.
On the surface, I am silent, I have seen this painting many times, and I am extremely familiar with it.
"Ye Tian, let me tell you, Concubine Ma is resourceful and scheming, she has already set the path you want to take in the future, that is, a military advisor and a wise trust. Your existence makes me gloomy, if it weren't for you, these honors would be mine, and Concubine Ma would rely on me wholeheartedly, and we would go to victory together. β
I already feel that after the other party fell out of favor, all his anger was vented on me.
Obviously, he didn't do anything, and he had already offended people like the Ninth Princess.
Finally, the ninth princess told the truth: "Ye Tian, come with me, there are many places with a wide field of vision, high buildings, and it is a wonderful experience to spend your life there leisurely." β
These people think I'm too simplistic, thinking that I'm doing all this basic work just for money.
They measure me by their own values, and they couldn't be more wrong.
No matter where the painting hangs, it becomes the protagonist of the assumption.
Each person in the painting is in a free state, and his movements are unrestrained, all of which are expressions of true temperament, without any sense of artificiality.
The ninth princess looked at the painting carefully, knowing that her mind was a mess, but she still insisted on reading it.
"Ye Tian, I have to share the trouble for those big people......"
It occurred to me that this painting was so wide-ranging, why didn't anyone else get moved? There is only one explanation for this sentence, and that is that everyone is tempting.
Whoever achieves results will be plundered.
Everyone is waiting for the black to eat the black, and the speed of action is even slower.
"Ye Tian, as long as you submit to me, there is a very important position waiting for you."
I didn't believe it at all, just looked at her with a smile.
"Ye Tian, the Twelve Heavenly Officials guard a secret, they are hidden in the Lingnan area, living a life of exile, until now, that secret may no longer be valuable, but they still persistently believe that they will be able to usher in the light and find a way to pass on the secret."
This is their paradox, they hide in Lingnan and never come out to walk the rivers and lakes, how can they find the most suitable apprentice?
For these questions, the ninth princess has never considered it, her mind is very simple, occupy the territory, have fun in time, and that's it.
It is also a miracle that people like her can survive unharmed until now.
I feel more and more that the capital must be full of miracles, which is why so many young people have come here one after another and taken root to stay.
The impact of this miracle continues to magnify, and more and more people are affected.
The Twelve Heavenly Officials is a new subject, and I have to solve the matter of that painting before I can move on to the next one.
The ninth princess did not hide her dissatisfaction with Concubine Ma, but she never dared to say these words to her face.
"Ye Tian, when the ancients saw Qin Shi Huang, they pointed to the carriage and said, 'He can take his place', and now I think the same way every time I see Ma Guifei. Why is she so high that she occupies that throne? The emperor takes turns to do it, and he will come to my house next year, what do you say? β
