Volume 3 Chapter 100 Mysterious Stronghold
Before Hu Haoren came over, he had already laughed and said, "It turns out that Brother Kong Ming wants to hold a birthday banquet at home? I wonder if this king has the honor to participate? If Brother Kong Ming really wants to say the word 'no', then this king will come uninvited!"
Before the words fell, Hu Hao laughed even louder, making people think that his "uninvited" words were just a joke.
However, Kong Ming knew that Hu Hao was really able to do uninvited things. For example, at this reception banquet, didn't the three princes come uninvited?
However, long before Kong Ming sent the invitation, he was ready how to deal with Hu Hao. Otherwise, Kong Qingyi left the table early, didn't he do anything?
Facing Hu Hao, who was smiling, Kong Ming's expression remained unchanged, but he smiled and handed over an invitation, and said politely: "Brother's birthday banquet, if you can invite the three princes to come, it will naturally be my brother's honor." In addition, there is one more thing to bother the three princes, that is, there are two invitations here for the younger brother, and the three princes are transferred to the eldest prince and the second prince, if the younger brother's birthday banquet, the three princes can attend together, it is really a great honor for the younger brother!"
Kong Ming invited the three princes at one time, and also showed his unswerving position, and the three princes wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to Kong Ming, but naturally they also failed.
If the children of the Hu royal family were still as low-key as before, Kong Ming's birthday banquet would probably not invite them. However, with the frequent actions of several princes, it is time to hold some public events. It's really hard to avoid them. So, Kong Ming directly stated that the three princes would invite together, and naturally there was no need to "stand in line"!
And Kong Ming's actions also reminded some princes of the family that if their family wants to be neutral, then they must learn from Kong Ming's practice when facing several princes, and treat the three princes equally and impartially!
looked at the invitation handed over by Kong Ming. Hu Hao laughed even more happily, and said continuously: "Okay, good." The birthday banquet of the Kong Ming brothers must be the top priority in the imperial capital in the near future, and the king will definitely come with the two imperial brothers. Gain momentum for the Kong Ming brothers!"
has to be, this third prince Hu Hao is really a character. After receiving Kong Ming's invitation, he immediately stated that he would bring the two imperial brothers to the banquet together, as if the behavior of the other two princes could also be decided by him. But in fact, with the power of the Kong family and Kong Ming's current prestige, as long as he sends out an invitation, he can be regarded as a prince, how can there be any reason not to come?
Unless these princes are still the same as before. I have always kept a low profile, but as long as I set a precedent for joining the WTO, it will not be so easy to return to a low profile.
Kong Ming didn't care about Hu Hao's tricks to show his existence. Instead, he said politely: "At that time, I will be in the Confucian family manor, waiting for the arrival of the three princes!"
Hu Hao laughed and said, "Okay, good!" Then he waved to Kong Ming, taking Duan Xingchao and his eight gold-armored guards with him. Go straight away.
As soon as Hu Hao left, all the children of the family naturally said goodbye one after another. After the last, Kong Ming also thanked Ji Honggao who held this reception banquet, and a month later, it was he who came to pay tribute to the friendship of the landlord.
When Kong Ming returned, Kong Qingming did not go with him, because he had something else to do, so he left in such a hurry. It seems that the mustard between him and Kong Ming will not disappear so easily because they are both surnamed Kong.
Looking at Kong Qingming, who left in a hurry, Kong Ming could only shake his head and board his carriage. Kong Qingyi, Moyue and the others had been waiting in the carriage for a long time, and Kong Qingyi saw Kong Ming coming back, smiled at him, and said: "I don't think the Hu royal family has always been low-key, but now that it is high-profile, this third prince is so domineering!"
Kong Ming smiled "hehe" and said: "No matter how much trouble a few princes make, our Kong family can stay out of the matter, do they really have the ability to drag us into the troubled water? ”
According to common sense, a huge empire should be established as soon as the successor is established, the better, but the current Hood Emperor's attitude towards the three princes is ambiguous, as if encouraging them to compete for who has the ability to inherit the throne.
Could it be that this Hood the Great is not afraid of causing trouble?
Kong Ming had never met Emperor Hood, and he didn't know what kind of character His Majesty the Emperor had in question. However, Kong Qingyi smiled slightly and said: "The old man once had a comment on the emperor of the current dynasty, calling him a generation of heroes! It can be seen that this emperor is definitely not a person!"
Kong Ming nodded thoughtfully and said, "Regardless of whether His Majesty the Emperor is a male lord or not, it is better for our Kong family to maintain the current situation!"
Kong Qingyi also nodded and said with a smile: "That's right!"
As the sound of the carriage sounded, the carriage in which Kong Ming and Kong Qingyi were riding suddenly galloped away......

After seeing off all the guests who participated in the reception banquet, Ji Honggao turned back to the Star Picking Building. But just a moment later, he changed into a black shirt, and covered his face with a black scarf, and under the cover of the night, like a big black bird, he crossed the backyard courtyard wall of the Star Picking Tower, and disappeared directly into the darkness.
In the dark streets and alleys, Ji Honggao seemed to be very familiar with the path, only to see him flickering and moving, passing over one house after another, and soon passing through almost half of the river area, and coming to an alley where private houses gathered.
The houses in this alley are all of the type of high-ranking families, although they are not as good as the mansions of those high-ranking officials and nobles in Antai District, but they are not affordable for ordinary people. However, since the business in Chuanliu District is developed, it is normal for some wealthy businessmen to do so, and the alley in front of you is the residence of the rich people in Chuanliu District.
Ordinary wealthy families will hire some caretakers, but Ji Honggao has the cultivation of a beginner-level general, how can he look at these ordinary caretakers? After quietly passing more than ten courtyards, he finally settled down in an inconspicuous courtyard.
As soon as Ji Honggao landed, he was immediately locked by two breaths, and judging from the sense of coercion of these two breaths, at least he also had the cultivation of a high-level general. After being locked by such two breaths, Ji Honggao could not even have a chance to escape.
However, Ji Honggao did not panic at all, but flipped his wrist and showed something similar to a token. As Ji Hong highlighted this thing, the aura hidden in the darkness suddenly closed, and there was no more sound.
Ji Honggao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, shook his body, entered the living room of this courtyard, and then knocked on a painting on the front wall of the living room, and immediately a secret door popped open, and he shrank down without hesitation.
Behind the secret door, there is a sloping stone staircase, and after extending more than ten meters down, there is a dark room about ten square meters in size. The furnishings in the dark room are very simple, only a large round table, and more than a dozen Taishi chairs arranged around the round table.
The facilities used for lighting in the darkroom are a few night pearls inlaid on the four walls, and the light is not too bright, making the environment in the darkroom relatively dark. At this time, there were two men in black who were dressed in the same way as Ji Honggao, sitting at the round table, as if they were waiting for Ji Honggao. ...,
The two men in black were not only masked in black scarves, but also sat on chairs, and even their figures were not revealed. As soon as Ji Honggao came in, he heard one of the men in black ask, "What is the situation with today's banquet?"
The voice was extremely hoarse and sharp, as if it was scraping a porcelain piece on metal, and it was obviously changed so that it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.
Ji Honggao did not answer immediately, but walked to the round table, pulled out a chair and sat down, and then briefly told the events at today's banquet, mainly about which families were present and their attitude towards Kong Ming. The focus is naturally on what the third prince Hu Hao did after he came.
The two men in black just sat silently and listened, only counting Honggao to finish speaking, and they didn't say a word. However, after Ji Honggao said that he had finished reporting, the man in black who spoke up before asked again: "How is the relationship between you and the Cao family?"
After hearing such a question, Ji Honggao was stunned, but he quickly replied coldly: "You don't need to worry about this matter, I will report this matter to Your Excellency!"
Next, Ji Honggao and the two men in black sat in the dark room in silence, as if the other party did not exist......
When Ji Honggao met these two mysterious black-clothed men, on another very wide avenue in the river area, a luxurious carriage with a bright yellow flag was slowly moving under the escort of a team of gold-armored warriors.
In the carriage, the third prince Hu Hao was leaning on a soft couch in a very relaxed posture, and it was naturally Duan Xingchao who was sitting on his side, but the two people sitting opposite Hu Hao were really a little surprised!
Because no one thought that Cao Podi, one of the "Cao Family Shuangying", actually had such a close relationship with the third prince Hu Hao, and was able to travel in the same car. As for Cao Podi's side, the person who dressed as a woman and a man is the Cao family's female think tank that has only recently become famous-Cao Jun'e!
