Chapter 292 The Current Situation of the Hai Family
After experiencing the Wanjia incident, Wen Hao never encountered anything else along the way. Five days later, Wen Hao arrived at the Supreme City smoothly.
The Supreme City is worthy of being the imperial city of a country. Its prosperity is far beyond that of Gaoyang City. The permanent population here exceeds two million. It is also the center of major forces. All the forces in the Ming Dynasty will not be able to find a piece of it in this Supreme City.
No matter how strong you are in your own territory, others will not recognize it. Only when you have your own territory here will everyone recognize your strength.
However, I have to say that although the Supreme City is full of power and has many masters, the security here is very good. There are no fights on the streets, which surprised Wen Hao.
Later, Wen Hao learned that the reason why no one dared to cause trouble in the Supreme City was because the royal family, the Jin family, together with the four major families and all the forces in the city, formulated a rule that no fights were allowed in the Supreme City no matter what.
, can only go outside the city. No matter who it is, anyone who fights in the city, regardless of whether it is right or wrong, will be executed. Afterwards, the responsibility of the force of the wrongdoer will be held accountable.
As a result, all forces dare not violate it, and some forces even prohibit the playboys in the family from entering the Supreme City in order to avoid getting into trouble.
In fact, it is helpless for the Jin family and the four major families of the Ming Dynasty to have such a rule. The emperor of a country is the face of the country. If fights often occur, who will be willing to invest here? If no one invests, this place will naturally become
Depression, even the capital city is so depressed, the situation of this country can be guessed without saying it, so for the sake of face, the Ming Dynasty had to make this provision.
After walking around the Supreme City for a day, he visited almost the entire city. There was still one day left before the auction. Wen Hao was bored and suddenly thought of his archenemy, the Hai family. Anyway, now that he had changed his body and changed his appearance, the opponent would not be able to do anything at all.
He couldn't recognize himself. Thinking of this, Wen Hao was ready to visit the Hai family.
Haifu is located on a bustling street, and the entire Haifu occupies almost half of the entire street. In this supreme city with many powerful forces, it can sit on such a large street, so you can imagine how powerful it is.
What surprised Wen Hao was that when he walked to this street, the bustling street was in a state of depression. There were not many pedestrians on the street at all, and many of the surrounding shops were closed, which seemed very uncomfortable.
normal.
The entrance of Haifu was even more exaggerated. It was originally said that there were only four warriors guarding the gate of Haifu. Suddenly there were eight, including two sword masters, and they all looked nervously at the people on the street.
Everyone.
When Wen Hao walked to the door of Hai Mansion, he just glanced inside. Sixteen eyes immediately locked on him, and at the same time, their hands quickly grasped the weapons at their waists.
Looking at this incident, it was obvious that something was wrong with the Hai family. Wen Hao didn't want to mess with the Hai family now, so when he saw something was wrong, he quickly backed away and left quickly. At this time, the guards relaxed when they saw Wen Hao leaving.
After a breath, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Although he was wondering what happened to such a powerful Hai family, Wen Hao did not stay longer and immediately returned to the inn, ordered a few dishes and entered his room.
Soon there was a knock on the door, and then a young waiter came into the room carrying the food and wine ordered by Wen Hao. He quickly placed the food and wine on the table. The waiter bowed and went out.
"Wait, I have a few questions to ask you." Wen Hao waved to the waiter, then took out a gold coin and put it on the table, saying: "As long as you answer my questions well, this gold coin will be yours."
your."
A flash of light flashed in the waiter's eyes. One gold coin was equivalent to two or three months' salary. This was a big temptation for him. He immediately smiled and said: "My guest, if you have anything to say, just ask. As long as
What I know must be told truthfully."
"Very good." Wen Hao nodded and asked in a deep voice: "Which power is the most powerful in the Supreme City?"
"Sir, you must be from out of town." The waiter smiled slightly and said respectfully: "In our Supreme City, the strongest one is of course the royal family, the Jin family. In addition to the Jin family, there are the four major families, King Zhou Hai
As for the other four major families, there are indeed too many in this Supreme City, and there is no ranking at all."
"Yes!" Wen Hao nodded with satisfaction, and then Wen Hao asked: "Has anything big happened in the Supreme City recently?"
"This..." The waiter hesitated for a moment, then said: "A lot of things happen every day in the Supreme City, especially those big forces. It is said that there is nothing trivial about a wealthy family. I don't know which aspect you are referring to, please clarify."
"For example, the Hai family..." Wen Hao said softly.
His expression changed. The waiter stared at Wen Hao closely, and then looked at the golden coins on the table. After a while, he gritted his teeth, turned around, ran to the door and looked outside, and found no one.
He closed the door firmly, then returned to Wen Hao, and said in a low voice: "Hai family affairs are now a taboo in the Supreme City, so I ask you, sir, not to go out and talk nonsense about what I said, otherwise you will be in trouble.
It’s trouble, and I can’t run away.”
"Don't worry, I still understand this." Wen Hao nodded and said softly.
"The matter started more than two months ago. At that time, the Hai family sent several Sword King masters out, but they encountered some masters and actually killed most of them, which greatly reduced the strength of the Hai family, and all of them were killed.
It is a new generation of sword king masters. After this loss, the masters of the Hai family are likely to appear.
In modern times, this news was originally blocked by the Hai family, and outsiders didn't know it at all, but later, for some unknown reason, the news spread, and Gaozhi City has no longer been peaceful since then." The waiter approached Wen.
Hao, said softly, as if he was afraid of being heard.
Nodding, Wen Hao immediately understood that the killed Sword Emperor masters of the Hai family should have been killed by him. As for how this matter was spread, Wen Hao did not want to know but was sure that it was definitely spread by the Wang family.
, after all, apart from myself and the Xue family, only the Neptune family knew about it.
And he and Xue Zhihong had never done such a thing at all, and it was impossible for the Hai family to spread the news deliberately. The only possibility was the Hai family's enemies, the Wang family, to suppress the Hai family.
"Tell me, why is the Supreme City not peaceful now?" Wen Hao continued to ask.
"The Hai family is the second largest force among the four major families. In the Supreme City and even in the entire Ming Dynasty, it is only a little weaker than the Jin family and the Zhou family. Originally, everyone was concerned about their strength and could only treat them with respect. But now
After their strength has been greatly reduced, who would want to be suppressed by them? You must know that the Hai family has lost a quarter of the Sword Emperor masters this time."
"Actually, even after the Hai family suffered a loss, those forces still didn't dare to attack them. But what the Hai family didn't expect was that at this juncture, not only their rivals, the Wang family, took the opportunity to suppress them, but also the Zhou family and
The Yu family also took the opportunity to suppress them violently, while the most powerful Jin family pretended not to know. In this way, with the three major forces in front, other forces followed suit. No matter how powerful the Hai family was, they could not withstand so many forces.
They joined forces to suppress it."
"Does the Hai family have no allies to help them?" Wen Hao asked doubtfully. Logically speaking, no matter how powerful a force is, there will always be some allies, but now it seems that no one is helping the Hai family at all. This is indeed a bit difficult to understand.
.
"Allies?" Xiao Er chuckled lightly and said, "The Hai family has been used to being arrogant and domineering in the past, and everyone was intimidated by their strength and dared not speak out. Even those forces that were friendly to them in the past also secretly resented them.
Now that the Hai family is in bad luck, who wouldn't want to take the opportunity to avenge the past?"
"Besides, none of those forces are just for profit. As long as they suppress the Hai family, they can take a step forward. In this supreme city, even if they just climb a little higher, the benefits will be amazing, so who is willing to help?
The Hai family, even if they were really related to the Hai family in the past, now they all hide when they see the Hai family in trouble, for fear of being implicated, so now the Hai family has been pushed down by everyone."
After saying that, the waiter smiled at Wen Hao with a look of gloating, and continued: "You don't know, just a few days ago, someone actually went to the Hai Mansion to kill him, although he was eventually killed by the strong men of the Hai Family.
, but also killed a large number of Hai family guards, which was something that was unthinkable before."
"Logically speaking, the Jin family should come out to mediate in this situation. After all, the decline of the Hai family will also cause a great loss to the strength of the Ming Dynasty. How can the Jin family ignore it?" Wen Hao asked again doubtfully. Although a country
On the surface, it is a country of the royal family, but only those who are from big families know that in fact, a country is the product of the reconciliation and compromise of various big families. They do not belong to any one family or force, but belong to the forces of all the big families in the country.
Just like the Wen family in the past, although the royal family of Tianwu Kingdom has changed hands before, Wen Hao's strength is still one of the four major families, and for national affairs, as long as any of the four major families disagrees, this matter
It's also difficult to get things done. This is the compromise of the big family.
And the Hai family can become the second largest force among the four major families, and its status in the Minghuang Kingdom is absolutely transcendent. If any one of this kind of force crosses over, it will be a heavy blow to the strength of the Minghuang Kingdom. Therefore, as a member of the Minghuang Kingdom,
On the surface, the royal family is also the most powerful force. The Jin family should not just sit back and watch the decline of the Hai family.
"Didn't I tell you just now? In the past, the Hai family relied on the strength of their own family and was very arrogant. Not only did they not give face to the other three families of the four major families, they also did not give face to the royal Jin family, so everyone has
It just seems that they are not pleasing to the eye. Take the royal Jin family as an example. Although a country is the product of compromise between big families, no matter what, they are also the leaders on the surface. Which leader is willing to have his subordinates exist?
A disobedient subordinate."
"Let's talk about the Zhou family, which ranks first among the four major families. The Hai family not only doesn't give them face, but also always makes them wrong. As the Hai family becomes stronger and stronger, the Zhou family's number one position is also going away.
Guaranteed, in this case, the Zhou family is eager to suppress the Hai family, how can they help them."
"Not to mention the third-ranked Wang family. The Wang family was originally ranked second, but was forcibly squeezed out by the Hai family. In addition, the two families had long had a grudge, and they wished that the Hai family would decline. In the end
Let’s talk about the Yu family. The Yu family ranks last among the four major families.
It is much weaker than the third-ranked Wang family. It is impossible to squeeze out the Wang family. However, at the same time, some forces behind him that are not ranked among the four major families are also working hard to climb up. They are almost at the forefront of the storm.
, it is possible to be squeezed out by other forces at any time."
"Under this situation, they are even more eager to squeeze the Hai family down. Not to mention how many benefits they can get by climbing up a ranking, just not having to face the competition from countless forces below is enough for Yu Hai to spare no effort to attack the Hai family.
Home."
As the waiter explained, Wen Hao finally understood that the reason why the Hai family is in this situation is actually inseparable from their usual arrogance and domineering. It is precisely because they are usually too arrogant and do not take others seriously.
That's why he offended everyone and added insult to injury when their strength was greatly reduced.
