Jiangzhou Linyuan Villa is built on the top of the West Mountain in the west city of Jiangzhou, the cliff side is a rock lake, the whole cliff wall is like a knife cut, quite a sense of abyss;

And this place was originally used for bungee jumping, Zhuang Feng in the past has come to try that feeling, from the top of this mountain just looking down is enough to tremble, let alone jump down, but at that time, Zhuang Feng, like most young people, always has adventurous behavior;

Either the order received, or out of respect, or the confidence that Zhuang Feng was not afraid of jumping out of the car and running away, so the group did not let Zhuang Feng wear a hood, but Xu Wei and Yang Lin were a little miserable, and people were hooded;

When the first ray of sunlight was sprinkled on the West Mountain, Zhuang Feng and they arrived at the Linyuan Villa; looking at the familiar entry of the team, Zhuang Feng couldn't help but think of going to play bungee jumping again, although Zhuang Feng himself knew that with his current health of more than 100 catties, he really couldn't stand it, but it was true that when he saw the Linyuan Villa, such a thought gushed out inexplicably;

Entering the villa area, the convoy did not stop immediately, but drove in the innermost direction of the villa area, and did not stop until it reached the edge or the real abyss villa door;

"Please;" After parking, the captain seemed to have completely forgotten how Zhuang Feng had amused him last night, and opened the car door according to standard etiquette and said to Zhuang Feng;

At this point, Zhuang Feng just smiled and got out of the car;

After Zhuang Feng got out of the car, Xu Wei and Yang Lin also got out of the car, and then someone took off the hoods of the two;

"Like facing the abyss, like walking on thin ice;" Looking at the villa full of climbing vines, Zhuang Feng said to himself;

Just as Zhuang Feng was talking to himself, a few people came out of the villa, led by an old man in his fifties who looked very sturdy, looking like he was dressed as a person in charge of the villa, but his temperament was not like that of a person in charge;

Generally speaking, as the steward of some big families, the first thing to do is to be respectful, because the people who can associate with their families are not ordinary people, so they have to be docile in this work for a long time, otherwise they will not be able to do such a job; at the same time, in the face of low-status people, they must put on the posture of the prime minister's family head and seven officials; therefore, they must be docile and proud at the same time;

The steward who has been engaged in this work for a long time is the transition between the two personalities without stopping, and finally forms the appearance of a dog's leg as the saying goes;

In Zhuang Feng's view, this old man in his fifties does not have the usual management of slippery and slick drills, but is more like a weathered soldier;

"Young Master Zhuang arrived, and he didn't greet him from afar, and he was rude;" The steward saw Zhuang Feng and said a little stiffly;

Zhuang Feng knew that his guess was right when he heard the steward's words be so blunt, but from another point of view, this villa is not a permanent place to live, maybe there is no full-time steward with Ben, and the old man in front of him is temporarily brought in to make up the numbers;

"It's really rude, I soaked in the water for most of the night last night, and I didn't even give me clean clothes, which is really disappointing;" Zhuang Feng said bluntly;

"Then please ask Young Master Zhuang to wash up first;" The steward continued Zhuang Feng's words, but there was obviously some unhappiness in his words;

"It's all at this time, and I've already covered it in the car;" Zhuang Feng said with a choked voice;

"Please;" The steward seemed to have nothing to say to Zhuang Feng, so he could only go straight to the topic;

After speaking, he turned around and walked into the villa without waiting for Zhuang Feng to reply, and several people accompanying him picked up Zhuang Feng, Xu Wei, and Yang Lin from the armed men of the convoy, saying that it was more like holding Zhuang Feng and the three into the villa;

Entering the villa, Zhuang Feng looked at the decoration, and generally speaking, a person can probably know the great behavior of his owner from the decoration style of his home;

However, after Zhuang Feng looked at the decoration of the living room, he was quite disappointed; it was not that the decoration was vulgar, but that there was no decoration in the first place; the utensils, tables and chairs in the whole living room were all temporary supplies of military standards, and nothing could be seen;

However, it was not all without gain, at least it was affirmed that the old steward who was temporarily replaced was indeed a soldier, and he should also be a figure such as the military director of this unknown force;

When Zhuang Feng mentally estimated this unknown figure, he also followed the guide to the roof of the villa;

Looking at the bare roof, there is not even a grape trellis, of course, not entirely absent, or only an awning, of course, it is also a military product;

Zhuang Feng understands this, in fact, this villa is just a temporary loan for this Linyuan villa that has not been sold;

Under the awning sat a middle-aged man who looked like a powerful figure of a big family, and in front of him there was a simple military folding table, on which were bottles of unmarked water, which were also military;

Zhuang Feng thought in his heart that this was the main man, although it seemed that the middle-aged man in front of him had the graceful and luxurious bearing of a powerful person in a big family, but it was extremely incongruous with the pure military supplies around him;

"Please be seated;" As Zhuang Feng arrived, the middle-aged man got up and said politely;

Zhuang Feng was not polite, and sat down by himself, as for Xu Wei and Yang Lin, he was just doing his duty and standing behind Zhuang Feng;

Looking at Zhuang Feng's appearance that he didn't even bother to speak, the middle-aged man just smiled, and then looked at the person who pretended to be in charge, and then the manager left with people, and only the middle-aged man and Zhuang Feng, Xu Wei, and Yang Lin were left on the roof;

Zhuang Feng didn't speak first, nor did he touch the bottle of water on the table, but he was quite interested in the scenery from the top of the building, and was looking east and west, a picture full of interest;

"Young Master Zhuang, can you have a private chat?" The middle-aged man looked at Zhuang Feng and the pretending one, and couldn't help but think that the name Zhuang Feng was really good, and he was quite good at pretending to be stupid;

"Go to the door, don't let unrelated people in;" Zhuang Feng listened to the middle-aged man's words, and said directly to Xu Wei Yang Lin;

After listening to Zhuang Feng's words, Xu Wei and Yang Lin did not respond, and ran directly to block the staircase;

"Mr. Wu, if you have anything to say, just say it directly;" As Xu Wei and Yang Lin went to block the door, Zhuang Feng said first;

Zhuang Feng knew the middle-aged man in front of him, or the middle-aged man in front of him may not have been inconspicuous before, but Zhuang Feng knew that this person was about to become the general speaker of the parliament;

Although the parliament of Jinguo has been an ornament since the founding of the country, it is because the position of the speaker has always been controlled by the prime minister's confidants, and the parliament has not been able to make its own voice or only the voice that the prime minister wants to hear;

With the arrival of the ten-year period, the position of the cabinet has basically been decided, and the current Wu Jinwen will be the speaker of the parliament;

In fact, this is not a secret, but ordinary people can't understand it;

According to tradition, when the ten-year period comes, the next cabinet member will appear in an inconspicuous deputy position in the cabinet, and this position represents their future status in the cabinet.

"Please ask Young Master Zhuang to come over, it is also a last resort, please forgive me;" Wu Jinwen was not surprised that Zhuang Feng could know his identity, because as long as he was a clear-eyed person, he could see it, and Zhuang Fengzi was also one of the clear-eyed people;

"Do you know what it's like to be unable to take off your clothes and have to cover yourself after soaking in the river water for most of the night?" Zhuang Feng said calmly;

"Understood, then let's say it directly;" Wu Jinwen knew that Zhuang Feng was about to lose patience when he heard Zhuang Feng's words, so he stopped talking nonsense, and continued: "You know Fu Xiang, simply put, you have to step on him and can't turn over, so I need your help;"

Zhuang Feng has thought about many possibilities since he was attacked and captured last night, but he definitely didn't think that people were related to Fu Xiang; because Zhuang Feng didn't know anything about Fu Xiang's small circle, and now when he heard Wu Jinwen say such a thing, he really didn't know how to answer this for a while;

"Have scruples?" Wu Jinwen looked at Zhuang Feng, who was silent, and asked that;

"You look down on me, I don't know anything about Fu Xiang;" Zhuang Feng thought about it, and decided not to get involved in the current task of Jindu, even if it was such a thing as stepping on ants;

"In other words, I need an official from Jiangzhou to come out and testify against Fu Xiang, that is, a ghost for the dead, but this person has to be your Zhuang Feng's person;" Wu Jinwen probably understood why Zhuang Feng was called Zhuang Feng, because Zhuang Feng was pretending to be crazy with him now, and he didn't believe that Zhuang Feng couldn't understand what he said;

For Wu Jinwen's words, Zhuang Feng naturally understood;

With the power of the Fu Xiang family, it is almost impossible to kill him, but if Zhuang Feng intervenes, then it will become the Jindu power circle and local forces jointly express their hope that the people of the Fu family will give up Fu Xiang;

This kind of thing didn't have to be done by Zhuang Feng in the first place, but Zhuang Feng was chosen, just because the Zhuang family is too weak now, weak enough to threaten;

After all, betraying one's own retainers is definitely not a glorious thing for these local families, or those local forces will never betray them for their own interests or prestige, under the premise that those retainers have not betrayed them, especially those officials who are already in high positions in the government;

Coincidentally, Fu Xiang knows Jiangzhou, and Jiangzhou belongs to the Zhuang family's sphere of influence; even more coincidentally, the Zhuang family has lost control of Jiangzhou, but because of Zhuang Feng's high-profile appearance, all parties still agree that Jiangzhou belongs to Zhuang Feng;

In this way, the candidate who framed Fu Xiang didn't need to be considered anymore, as long as Zhuang Feng showed an attitude, or only needed to threaten Zhuang Feng;

Because of these reasons, Wu Jinwen found Zhuang Feng;

"What if I refuse?" Zhuang Feng thought for a moment and asked tentatively;

"Then there will be no Zhuang family in Dajin Kingdom in the future;" Wu Jinwen calmly answered Zhuang Feng's question, and did not have any other emotions because of Zhuang Feng's question;

"The toad is angry, and his tone is not small;" Zhuang Feng looked at Wu Jinwen calmly said that after he said it, there would be no appearance of the Zhuang family, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart;

"If you die, is there still the Zhuang family?" Wu Jinwen could see that Zhuang Feng had already developed a fire in his heart, but said disapprovingly;

"Do you know the consequences of inviting me like you last time?" Zhuang Feng faced Wu Jinwen's threatening words, but his heart calmed down, and he said in a mocking tone;

"I know, isn't it the last madness, leaving a little cat mark on Gu Xiangye's neck, what a big deal;" Wu Jinwen looked extremely disapproving in the face of Zhuang Feng's so-called threat;

When Zhuang Feng heard this, he understood why Fu Xiang failed, this is the gap; even the speaker knows about it, so Fu Xiang still wants to be the second minister, and he doesn't even know;

Zhuang Feng sighed psychologically that this is the person who took over the power circle of Jinguo, and the control of the information alone is much higher than that of the Fu Xiang family;

"It's good to know;" Zhuang Feng sighed mentally, but his mouth was still the threatening look that looked weak;

"Hehe, you have a dialect in Jiangzhou to say, oh, the duck died to the height of the field, and the beak was hard;" Wu Jinwen looked at Zhuang Feng's obvious lack of confidence, and relaxed a little with that;

In fact, when faced with absolute strength, any words seem so pale and powerless;

"Mr. Wu, do you have long nails?" Faced with this powerless dilemma, Zhuang Feng was really helpless, this is the difference in strength;

Wu Jinwen is right, the current Zhuang Feng is indeed in trouble;

Either do what Wu Jinwen said and betray Zhuang's person with a certain status in Jiangzhou officialdom, or Zhuang Feng himself died in Linyuan Villa, and there was no other choice;

Such a choice is difficult;

If you choose to do what Wu Jinwen said, then Zhuang Feng will lose what little strength he has left in his hands; according to the conventional, if he betrays his subordinates who have not betrayed for his own interests, then his subordinates can seek refuge from other families;

From the perspective of interests, once betrayed by one's own master, then it will naturally lose the hearts of the people; once the hearts of the people are lost, other families will take the initiative to avoid these people, and then find a reason to attack, so as to carry out annexation;

Zhuang Feng has done this kind of thing himself, so he knows the key to the interests;

But if he doesn't do what Wu Jinwen said, with what Zhuang Feng knows about the armed forces that Wu Jinwen has in his hands now, with his Zhuang Feng plus Xu Wei and Yang Lin, he will not be able to get out of trouble, and in the end, Zhuang Feng will rot and die in this Linyuan villa;

And when the news of Zhuang Feng's death is confirmed, then the Zhuang family will also collapse, just as Wu Jinwen said, there will be no more Zhuang family in the future;

It seems that no matter how you choose, it will be an ending, so it seems that this Wu Jinwen is also a master of the middle, but it is not surprising, after all, he is a member of the highest power circle in the next ten years of Jinguo, and with such scheming means, he is worthy of such power;

However, after all, this Wu Jinwen was born in Jindu and grew up in the same aristocratic circle, he has the means and scheming, but there is a shortcoming, or all the nobles in Jindu have an irreparable shortcoming, of course, this shortcoming is not a secret;

This disadvantage is that the local power in the local area can never be seen through by the imperial aristocratic circle, because the rivers and lakes are far larger than the temples, and the personnel in them are more complicated;

Zhuang Feng has thought about it a lot, and in Wu Jinwen's opinion, Zhuang Feng seems to be struggling with choice, but Wu Jinwen likes this feeling, that is, forcing the other party into a tangle that no matter how he chooses, the result is the same;

"Do you have long nails?" Zhuang Feng picked up his hands and looked at them repeatedly, and then said;

Wu Jinwen was appreciating his success again, and when he thought of Zhuang Feng's sudden words, he was a little confused for a while, but he still replied to Zhuang Feng's words: "Don't stay;"

"Hehe......" Hearing Wu Jinwen's answer, Zhuang Feng looked at Wu Jinwen and laughed;

In this way, it made Wu Jinwen a little crazy, because Zhuang Feng looked at him, like a precursor to the possessive action of some male animals when they saw female creatures, and this feeling made Wu Jinwen extremely unhappy;

"What do you think of these hands? are they beautiful? Well, pay attention to the nails, are they particularly beautiful?" Zhuang Feng also likes to see the opponent's expression of being controlled;

"Don't pretend to be crazy there, and don't run away anymore, you can't escape the choice you should have;" Wu Jinwen sorted out his emotions, trying to regain control;

"You should know that keeping a pair of long nails is very in the way, for example, it will definitely affect the use of firearms, and it will also affect the use of cold weapons such as swords, and even the use of chopsticks when eating, let alone wiping your buttocks, right?" Zhuang Feng ignored Wu Jinwen's words trying to regain control, and said to himself;

After all, this Wu Jinwen was born in the aristocratic circle, and when Zhuang Feng pretended to be crazy and deliberately said something disgusting, he felt a little uncomfortable, although Zhuang Feng's hands were indeed very beautiful, and almost everyone who had seen Zhuang Feng would be attracted by his hands;

"But why do you want to keep such long nails in this seat?" Zhuang Feng continued to talk to himself, as if he didn't expect Wu Jinwen to answer him, and continued: "This is actually a secret of this seat, a secret that is only passed down among our Zhuang family masters;"

"Don't you want to know? Those who are not curious and unmotivated are not good; without self-motivation, life is meaningless; if there is no meaningful life in life, then what is the meaning of living;" Zhuang Feng looked at Wu Jinwen and didn't ask him what his secret was, and he still felt a little lost in his heart, because this one-man show was really difficult to sing, and there was no one to answer;

However, for Zhuang Feng, it doesn't matter how big it is; Zhuang Feng is such a madman who can talk to himself; of course, Zhuang Feng ten years ago was not lonely enough to talk to himself, although Zhuang Feng did have some mental problems;

Zhuang Feng talked to himself, which was a habit formed in the ten years of disappearance, or it could not be called a habit, but those ten years were too difficult, which made Zhuang Feng's mental problems caused by childhood experiences more serious;

Therefore, although Wu Jinwen did not answer, Zhuang Feng could still continue to talk on his own;

"There is a secret medicine in the rivers and lakes, only a drop on it can make the originally soft substance become extremely hard;

"You see why these hands of this seat are so white and delicate? they are not at all like a man's hands; and I believe that you must have the information of this seat, then you should know that this seat is also the same as all the other family heirs who have practiced martial arts and are proficient in all kinds of firearms; according to common sense, a person who practices martial arts and is proficient in firearms, then a pair of hands will definitely be very rough, and even if you take care of it, it will definitely have cocoon scars; but, do you see that this seat has a hand?"

"Why?" Wu Jinwen finally couldn't stand Zhuang Feng's words, or was affected by Zhuang Feng's self-talk, and finally began to catch up with Zhuang Feng's thinking mode, and said such a sentence unconsciously;

Zhuang Feng listened to Wu Jinwen's words, and had such an expression that he should have asked a long time ago, and at the same time continued: "This is the side effect of the kind of secret medicine of the rivers and lakes that I just said;

"Is it really that amazing?" when Zhuang Feng said this, he really didn't believe it;

Because Wu Jinwen himself came over as Zhuang Feng said, as the son of the Wu family, he was naturally cultivated according to the ability of the heir, and naturally he was also trained in martial arts, and was proficient in firearms; although he was somewhat restrained after adulthood, the calluses on his hands did not completely disappear;

At first glance, I heard Zhuang Feng say it so magically, and I was quite interested for a while;

Because Wu Jinwen didn't feel anything when he was a child, but when he began to manage family affairs and entered the circle of power, he began to feel a little inferior to his hands as rough as an old farmer in the countryside;

"Do you want to try it?" Zhuang Feng completely misunderstood what Wu Jinwen said that the magic was not hard but soft, but it did not affect Zhuang Feng to continue to talk nonsense, and then stretched out his body from the chair like a salesman and leaned towards Wu Jinwen;

"Zhuang Feng, Zhuang Feng, I almost fell into your way, but your name is not wrong, you are really good at pretending to be crazy;" Wu Jinwen did almost almost miss Zhuang Feng's way, because although Zhuang Feng was talking to himself, this was actually a kind of psychological control technique that Zhuang Feng had learned;

"Do you think you can escape? This seat is talking to you about this, this is to tell you that this seat can put these hands into your heart with bare hands;" Zhuang Feng saw Wu Jinwen, and immediately changed his style and became hideous;

As soon as he finished saying this, he suddenly got up and stretched out his right hand to attack Wu Jinwen's chest;
