In the whole capital, there were almost no Qin Wang's divisions, and when the Ouyang family's private army was fighting all the way to the palace, in a private house outside the city wall in the southwest corner of the imperial city, a white figure was sitting quietly in the guest room, looking at the scroll in his hand.

The candle flame burned quietly, and the stove in one corner emitted a dim light and heat, making the room warm. Occasionally, the sound of firewood "crackling" and exploding gently broke the silence in the room.

Suddenly, the door of the study opened, and a cold wind swept the snowflakes that fell at an unknown time when a person came in, and blew into the house, bringing a breath of fresh air to the warm and sleepy house.

"Seventeenth brother, what's the matter, so flustered?" The handsome middle-aged man in white didn't raise his head, but just asked lightly at the person who came in.

The person who came in was dressed in a civilian official uniform, looked to be in his thirties, but he looked quite fair, and he was also very energetic. It's just that at this moment, this person's face was a little excited, and he hurriedly walked two steps to the side of the man in white, ignoring his status in the court, he was lying directly on the desk at this moment, and said excitedly to the man in white: "Second brother, do you know hey!!"

But before he could finish his words, he was pushed by the man in white: "Go down!!! I said Seventeenth brother, you said that you are in your thirties, why are you still like a teenager? ”

The white civil official stood up a little stupidly, barely put away his excitement, and muttered like a child: "Second brother, you seem to be more stable than me... ”

"Talk nonsense, let's talk about something. The middle-aged man in white put down the scroll in his hand and raised his head slowly, and this face that is still handsome enough to fascinate women all over the world after middle age, who would it be if it wasn't the "Gun Shadow God Emperor" Wang Changming?

"Second brother, Ouyang Changkong's old fox has rebelled, and now they have all entered the imperial city, and the emperor who forced him to directly use the people of the Yulin Guards to convey the holy will to everyone in the capital, and send troops to the king!!" This Wang Changming's seventeenth brother looked excited, and the voice he could still suppress became more and more uncontrollable the more he went back, and the voice became higher and higher.

The five families of the Dongzhou Five Business Alliance, whether the Hejian Huang clan is direct or collateral, has always had a large number of female members and a sparse number of male members, so there are many daughters-in-law of the Hejian Huang clan among the other four families; Although the Zhang clan in Qingzhou is prosperous, it is a large family whose bloodline is relatively easy to die early, and there are not many people who have lived past 70 in the past dynasties; while the Wang clan of Qizhou has a balanced development of men and women, and all of them are easy to live a long life, so the population of this family is naturally quite large.

And Wang Changyang, Wang Changming, and Wang Changhong's generation alone are only descendants, that is, those who have the same grandfather as Wang Changyang, Wang Changming, and Wang Changhong, and there are 32 brothers, and all of them are alive now.

Of course, this big business, naturally not everyone will stay in Dongzhou, a rich land, with peace of mind. For example, the person who is talking to Wang Changming now is Wang Changming, who is the seventeenth in their generation, Wang Changxing, who is only thirty years old and has just emerged, and he is not good at martial arts and literature. In the past, he was entrusted to a family, and at the age of eighteen, he obtained fame and became an official in the court, and it has been more than ten years.

And this guy has been working hard inside and outside the court for so long, and now he is also sitting in the official of the fifth grade, and he can be regarded as young and promising.

In fact, Wang Changxing can be regarded as a blessing for the eldest prince to actively improve relations with various forces in the rivers and lakes, coupled with his own real talent and hard work, he was able to sit in the position of a fifth-grade official at a young age. It's just that the current emperor has a very stiff relationship with the forces in the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't pay attention to the officials who the prince pulled up from the forces in the rivers and lakes, especially the forces in the rivers and lakes of Dongzhou, and even alienate and suppress them, and vigorously support the officials of the capital system, Wang Changxing is now gradually moving away from the center of power.

Of course, there are advantages to staying away from the center of power, at least you don't have to engage in some intrigue like the original, and you can be regarded as having a leisure.

I didn't say much, but I said that after listening to Wang Changxing's excited voice, Wang Changming looked lazy, and after Wang Changxing finished speaking, he raised his eyes lightly and said indifferently: "Oh, Ouyang Changkong rebelled." Do you have anyone on your hands?"

When Wang Chang ascended, he wilted like a frosted eggplant. He is a civil official, and in the past, he emphasized literature over martial arts, and his own martial arts were quite loose. Although it is thanks to the talent of the Qizhou Wang family that is integrated into his bones, he has not cultivated much, and now he is a second-rate master-level strength in the rivers and lakes, but in a family of talents, his strength is completely countdown, and even many people from the side branches are stronger than him.

And this guy was also backbone in the past, and directly refused the support of the family, although every month the Qizhou Wang family would allocate his monthly money to Wang Changxing through the stronghold set up in the capital, but Wang Changxing kept all the money in the ticket number under the name of the Five Merchants Alliance, or the kind that only saved and did not take it. His daily life and expenses are all supported by his small salary. After all, this guy is also a stinky temper and never bribes, which is why his life is relatively poor now. It was only when he returned to Dongzhou a few years ago that he married the daughter of an ordinary family in Qizhou City as his wife, and he took out a part of the money from the ticket number of the Five Merchants Alliance to use it, and then only when he couldn't open the pot at home, he would take out a small part of the ticket number of the Five Merchants Alliance to relieve his small life.

Thanks to his wife being a virtuous woman, and not disliking this kind of poor life, Wang Changxing did not have a fire in his home.

Speaking of which, Wang Changxing's wife is virtuous and also runs the family, and she has some business acumen, and has opened a small shop in the capital to subsidize the family's life, and this small life is not too hard.

Of course, with such a family background, it is naturally impossible for Wang Changxing to accumulate any private army strength. And he is also one of the few honest officials in the imperial court who does not have a private armed force.

"Second brother... If we help a group of emperors this time, we may be able to improve the current discordant relationship between our Five Merchants Alliance and the imperial court. Wang Changxing shrugged for a while, raised his head and asked Wang Changming. When he first entered the imperial court, he originally wanted to improve the relationship between the imperial court and the forces in the rivers and lakes, and when the eldest prince was in charge, it was indeed a great improvement, but now everything is in vain, and it is even worse.
