At the same time, in a gorgeous room in Tianlong Restaurant, a middle-aged man was calculating something with a ledger. Suddenly, his expression changed and he glanced around to make sure that no one was around. Then he carefully took out the jade pendant that he had kept close to his body.
This jade pendant looks very ordinary, with a dragon carved on one side and several large characters shining in gold on the other side.
"East Gate of the Royal Capital!"
Seeing these words, the middle-aged man's complexion changed slightly. He put down his writing without hesitation, straightened his clothes, quickly called a carriage, and hurried away.
After a while, under the guidance of the jade sign in his hand, he finally saw a young man, with his hands behind his back, looking at the surrounding buildings.
"Palace Master!"
"It's actually the palace master who's here!"
Shen Yuan took a breath, walked over quickly, came to Long Chen, bowed and said, "Shen Yuan pays homage to the palace master!"
Only then did Long Chen look away from a distance, glanced at the abyss, smiled faintly, and said, "No need to be polite, let's go!"
Along the way, Long Chen admired the buildings on both sides. Abyss carefully introduced it to him, and from his words, Long Chen had an understanding of this holy capital city.
There are five top forces in the Holy Capital City, namely the Weapon Refining Masters Guild, the Champion Hou Wang Family, the Hongtian Merchant Alliance Ren Family, and the Zhao Family, a well-known weapon refining family.
These five major forces are powerful, have many members, and have countless subordinates.
Just as the carriage passed by a grand manor, a huge noise suddenly came from the manor.
Long Chen looked outside and found that at the gate of the manor, people were coming and going, it was very lively.
"Palace Master, this is the Su family. Like the Zhao family, they are a family of weapon refiners, but their power is much smaller than that of the Zhao family!"
Shen Yuan introduced Long Chen with a faint smile.
"Su family?"
When he heard this name, Long Chen was startled for a moment, and then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Looking at those people coming in and out, a light flashed deep in his eyes.
After a while, the carriage stopped in front of a tall and gorgeous restaurant. Shen Yuan smiled and said, "This is a stronghold of our shadow. Palace Master, please!"
Shen Yuan brought Long Chen into a gorgeous room. Long Chen said, "Is there anything big happening in the Holy Capital City now?"
"event?"
Shen Yuan thought for a while and said, "The most widely circulated thing in the Holy Capital City recently is that Xia Wenyuan became the first person to succeed the emperor. Another thing is that the Su family held a competition to recruit relatives. Oh, by the way, there is another thing. A few days ago , the eldest prince was worried about the prince holding a princely banquet, and the eighth prince took action against Prince Xia Wenyuan, but Prince Xia Wenyuan and Huang Prince seemed to be fine!"
Listening to Shen Yuan's words, Long Chen nodded lightly and said, "Go tell Xia Wenyuan and ask him to come see me."
"yes!"
…
Not long after burning the incense, there was a knock on Long Chen's door, and it was Xia Wenyuan who hurriedly walked in.
"Brother, you are finally here!"
Seeing Long Chen, Xia Wenyuan looked excited, cupped his fists and saluted.
"Haha, sit down..."
Long Chen smiled faintly, glanced at Xia Wenyuan, and a light flashed deep in his eyes. In the past, Xia Wenyuan always bowed when he saw him salute, but this time, he did not, but Long Chen is not a person who sticks to small details. , smiled faintly, pointed to the food on the table, and said, "Let's eat some together!"
"good!"
Xia Wenyuan also picked up the chopsticks without ceremony.
After three drinks and five meals, Xia Wenyuan looked at Long Chen and said, "Brother, in two days, my father will hold a Qianlong Banquet. You should be more careful during these two days, and be careful of my extremely powerful brother."
The dog is so anxious that he jumps over the wall..."
Hearing this, Long Chen said, "It's inevitable for a dog to jump over the wall. Before the matter is settled, they will definitely take action. However, what do you think about Su Zihan's martial arts competition to recruit a bride? You must know that you are still short of a high-quality woman."
."
Hearing this, Xia Wenyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, this is what I want to say. This time Su Zihan is asking for a bride, many of her brothers and sisters from Star Academy have come. Each of them has the power to crush the same level. I will send them out."
Those people were beaten back..."
Speaking of this, Xia Wenyuan looked helpless.
"Su Zihan is a student of Star College?"
Long Chen was stunned. He really didn't know about this news.
"Yes, not only her, but also one or two people from the major forces in the royal capital are studying at Star Academy."
Xia Wenyuan nodded and said, "Speaking of which, the eldest prince and the third prince are also students of Xingchen Academy, but they are all disciples of the outer academy."
Listening to Xia Wenyuan's words, Long Chen nodded and said, "Even so, let's go to Su's house..."
Long Chen's eyes flashed with light. He was very curious about Star Academy, and this time was just an opportunity to make contact.
I met a few in Tianyin Mountain last time. Those guys were very powerful. I wonder how the others are like?
Sitting in Xia Wenyuan's carriage, Long Chen looked at the guards at the front, back and left, secretly speechless.
He found that the guards around him had the lowest strength at the one-star Tianwu realm, while those with the highest strength were at the seven-star Tianwu realm.
A group of more than ten people rushed towards the Su family in a mighty manner. This scene was spied on by some powerful forces and was instantly conveyed to the ears of the master behind them.
After hearing the news, the third prince Xia Yu suddenly showed a violent murderous look on his face, "Is it finally here?"
A cold smile appeared on Xia Yu's lips, "Come, go to the Su family!"
Like him, the other princes also rushed towards the Su family crazily after hearing the news. Even Emperor Xia Canglong ordered people to rush over secretly.
Su family!
In a gorgeous hall, the head of the family, Su Xuyang, listened solemnly to the report of the man in black below, his face getting darker and darker.
"Has this day come yet?"
After a long time, he took a long breath and murmured.
After Xia Wenyuan became the first prince, he knew that such a day would come sooner or later, but for some reason, Xia Wenyuan never came to the Su family, which made the Su family feel a little relieved.
Unexpectedly, something he didn't want to face happened today.
The princes gathered together in the Su family, which was a huge crisis in itself for the Su family. The princes represented the Tian family, and if they were a little neglectful, they would lose their heads.
The rest of the Su family also looked solemn at this time.
"I'm very curious why Xia Wenyuan has been silent and silent before, but why did he suddenly come today?"
At this moment, Su Zhong, the second-in-command of the Su family, looked puzzled and said.
"This is not the point now. The point is, everyone should quickly figure out how to face the next thing?"
"Yes, they are princes. If you offend anyone, there will be no good consequences!"
