"Master Chen, this time you were ordered by the imperial court to come from the bustling Fenghua City to this remote place to host this competition. It's really hard work. Take a look, do you still feel satisfied here?" Du Yunfeng's tone was respectful, and he arched his head from time to time.
The raised hands and lowered body showed that he was respectful and humble at the same time.
"We are all working for His Majesty the Imperial Court, so we must do our best and do it to the best of our ability. We cannot be careless in the slightest!"
Mr. Chen immediately nodded: "I think you have done a good job in making everyone here reflect the true majesty of the imperial court this time."
"I hope Mr. Chen can give me more advice." Du Yunfeng cupped his fists and raised his hands without losing any etiquette. In any case, this Mr. Chen Bin and Chen came to Tiandu City to supervise with the decree of His Majesty the Emperor!
Moreover, this person is extremely powerful in Fenghua City. When he comes here, he will naturally be treated like a local emperor.
"By the way." Chen Bin casually put the grape skins on the suddenly clean carpet: "I heard that you have a very rich Lu family here. The head of the family is the president of a chamber of commerce. He has a very money-burning prodigal son.
son?"
"There is such a child." Du Yunfeng smiled a few times, not daring to be negligent: "I didn't expect Mr. Chen to know about this child. Haha, he has some tricks to spend money."
"No, no, this time, I heard that he led a large number of troops and bloodbathed the family of Tang Wanli, the imperial official, with brutal and ruthless means."
Chen Bin narrowed his eyes and stared at Du Yunfeng intentionally or unintentionally: "For such a big thing, how come I heard that it was his self-defense, and in the end it was just a piece of official paper? Go to someone else's home for self-defense?"
"This is indeed the case. Tang Wanli has indeed gone too far in these years. I tried to persuade him many times, but he didn't take it seriously. This time he ended up like this. Everyone in Tiandu City can testify that the prodigal son was indeed acting in self-defense.
There is no suspicion of exaggeration.”
Chen Bin rubbed his chin and kept moving his small eyes: "In any case, such a big matter should not be dealt with hastily. This will make the public think that we are not doing anything. No matter how you say, his family is very wealthy."
We should donate some money and property, which will not only make the people feel at ease, but we officials will also have an explanation to the higher ups, right?"
"Sir, the game will start in half an hour." A junior official who was recording the time saluted and said.
Du Yunfeng waved his hand and approached Chen Bin: "Mr. Chen, it was a thing of the past that the Lu family was rich. Although they are still very rich, it is best for Mr. Chen not to do that. The people in the poor country are strong and strong!"
"Tough? No matter how tough they are, can they dare to be tough against me, the law enforcer sent by the imperial court? I represent the majesty of the imperial court, and what I enforce is the imperial law. I represent the law! They are just ordinary people,
You don't even know if you can advance to the nobility, so you dare to do anything to me?"
Chen Bin raised his eyes, looking like a law enforcer, and then he looked at Du Yunfeng with very contemptuous eyes: "You, you! How can I say you are good? You were very ambitious when you came here? How short is it?
In a short period of more than ten years, it has become like being afraid of wolves before and tigers behind? We are officials, and what we say is the will of the imperial court to these ordinary people. How come you have forgotten this most basic principle? We
, it’s an official!”
Chen Bin shook his head speechlessly. Although being an official is prestigious, the amount of money that needs to be raised every year is definitely not a small amount. Now that there is such a rich man, there are still unexplainable things about him, isn't that what we are doing as officials?
When you show up?
As long as I come forward, they will be frightened and will try their best to use money to attack me. Who am I? In a city as big as Fenghua City, I am an upper-class figure. In a small Tiandu City like Advent Road, that is
sky!
"Moreover, this time I brought a master who is the peak swordsman. Who would be dissatisfied? Hum!" Chen Bin sneered several times, the meaning of which is self-evident.
Du Yunfeng's eyes glanced at the person behind Chen Bin. That person seemed to have a murderous aura soaked in his blood. His eyes could not stop glaring at the people around him, making many people afraid to come forward. He looked very powerful.
Alas! Since Chen Bin thinks that the peak sword master is very powerful, then I can’t say anything more and can only persuade you here.
"Hey! Look, the Lu family is here. What a big team."
"The kid walking next to President Lu is Lu Ming, who once bloodbathed the Tang family. Look how old he is. What the Tang family has forced him to do!"
"But from this point of view, the Lu family has a strong tendency to win first place in this competition. Although anyone who enters the top ten will become a noble, the first place is always of extraordinary significance. Maybe it will happen immediately.
What’s an opportunity to advance again!”
Among the Tiandu City people who were watching, there was naturally no shortage of people who had witnessed Lu Ming's bloodbath of the Tang family that day, but none of these people went to prove that the Tang family was right.
At this moment, when they saw everyone from the Lu family arriving, they all showed great enthusiasm and due respect.
"Eh? Isn't that Ouyang Luo? This poor boy's current status is earth-shaking?"
"Hey! This is also a good talent! Not only has he awakened the Greedy Wolf Sword Body, but he has also made breakthroughs in the sword realm. It is said that he has now reached the realm of the five-edge swordsman."
"Sixteen-year-old, five-edged swordsman?"
"Holy crap! This guy must be crazy, otherwise how could the sword realm grow so fast? Alas! That boy in my family is already seventeen years old, and he is in the swordsman realm. It's so irritating!"
Ouyang Luo was like a steel sword thrust straight into the ground. When he heard the comments in the crowd, his sword-like face did not change at all. The tempered heart of the sword was already showing its fire. He just walked silently beside Lu Ming.
, silent, and sharp.
Lu Ming, who was walking beside his father, frowned slightly. This time, not one of the more than 600 people in the Lu family stayed at home. They all came with him. Six hundred people would not be too small no matter where they were placed. This made
Lu Ming, who was happy to be quiet, had a headache, but Qing'er was very happy.
The Sword Master of Destruction was still holding a candy painting and a bunch of candied haws. Seeing that Qing'er's hands beside him were empty, he immediately put the two items in front of her for her to choose. Long Lin, on the other hand, was a mature swordsman.
Appearance, tall and cold.
"Sir Sword Master, I didn't expect you to be here too. We haven't seen each other for almost more than a year."
Wu Guangzhen, the city lord who was in charge of the security of the city, saluted with a smile and said.
"That's right." The old sword master stopped and lamented the wasted time: "I'm old and I'm really careless. How are you doing lately?"
Wu Guangzhen put his hand to invite you: "Sir Sword Master, please come this way."
The old sword master nodded. This old friend's life was not going smoothly, and his swordsmanship had not improved for many years. It was time to give him some guidance.
Next to Chen Bin on the high platform, the peak swordsman was pointing to the audience: "Sir, you see, that is the Lu family. With my observation ability as a peak swordsman, that fair-faced boy must be a legend.
The prodigal son."
Chen Bin looked around and saw a calm boy. His face was not as excited and enthusiastic as his family members. He just walked so calmly to participate in this competition that can change a family's status in an instant.
If he can destroy the Tang family, his strength will not be too weak. Chen Bin thought for a while and asked: "Do you think there are any powerful people around him? For example, a powerful swordsman?"
"There is absolutely no such person. This little prodigal son's sword realm is nothing more than a great swordsman."
After hearing this, Chen Bin nodded. A peak swordsman like him would hold the position of city lord in any small town. Even in the army, he could also be a general with a good status. What he said,
Absolutely no lies.
However, this kid really has the style of a prodigal. Not only did he bring six to seven hundred people, not to mention an old servant behind him, he also had a little maid to wait on him. He was really very tender!
Of course, the Destruction Sword Master's position in the Zhenyuan Empire is too high-end, and few people can actually see him. Chen Bin has never seen this person, nor have the sword masters around him, so it is normal.
Because usually, they don't have the opportunity to come into contact with such high-end levels. After all, the swordsman realm has already become the overlord of one party.
"Master Du, come on, come with me and have a look."
When Chen Bin stood up, he saw his men putting away the money sent by the several families just now. A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. Although it was not much, it was still money. I am in charge of your promotion to the nobility, no matter which family sees me
, isn’t it just like seeing the sky?
When Du Yunfeng saw Chen Bin's eyes locked on the Lu family's camp, the corners of his eyes immediately jumped a few times. However, this leader was so persistent that if he stopped him, he would not only be ridiculed and despised by him, but he would also find it difficult to get along in the officialdom in the future.
, just leave him alone.
"Tomorrow, although this competition is important, it is definitely not at the point where my Lu family can't afford to lose. We must act according to our ability later. After all, there are ten places. Don't get too excited just for the first place.
Be careful and cautious in everything." Lu Tianlin's voice was not loud, but it contained deep self-blame. If he had not been so enthusiastic and used his property to sign up, he would not be so passive and had to participate in the competition now, alas!
Of course, Lu Ming understood Lu Tianlin's ambivalence of not giving up on the success or failure of his family at the moment, but not wanting to take too many risks. He nodded lightly: "Don't worry, father, I will do what I can and won't go too far."
"Okay, with your words, my father is relieved again." Lu Tianlin smiled happily, and then got up and chatted with the elders of the family to comfort the excitement and worries of the clan members.
Lu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly and quietly waited for the time to come, but his father didn't seem to fully understand what he meant - if the opponent doesn't have murderous intentions towards me, or has the intention of spying on the Lu family, when I attack
