Chapter 228 Humiliation
From the emperor to the peddlers and pawns, all are inseparable from money.
Only when the emperor has money can he recruit troops to fight, hire troops to serve him, and hire officials to protect the world for him.
Only when the powerful have money can they buy and sell slaves.
If you have money, you can go anywhere in the world, but if you don't have money, you can't move anywhere.
The Chai family is very rich, especially now that they are connected to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is even more worthy of Li Jiancheng's efforts to win over them.
"Brother Li, we can't keep Zhu Liming. This person is the cause of trouble. It's better for Brother Li to stay away from this person in the future." Chai Shao filled Li Jiancheng's drink.
"How do you say that?" Li Jiancheng was stunned.
"This person has no real abilities, but his ability to attract hatred is second to none. He can be said to have enemies all over the world." Chai Shao picked up the wine cup and took a sip.
"Oh? Brother Chai knows this person?" Li Jiancheng said in surprise.
"Not only do we know each other, but we also have hatred. Deep hatred!" Chai Shao's face was cold.
Wagang Mountain
Li Jing looked at the carrier pigeon in his hand and narrowed his eyes: "Yang Xuangan dares to threaten me. Do you really think that he can cover the sky with one hand?"
who is he?
Han Qinhu's nephew.
Han Qinhu was a veteran of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and he made more concessions than Yang Su. He may not be as strong as Yang Su at the moment, but he is by no means a person who will bully at will.
"Zhu Liming!" Zhang Chuchen narrowed his eyes: "When you and I went to assassinate Zhu Liming, we were attacked by Li Mi, which caused a sudden change in the bloodline. Zhu Liming must be blamed for all of this."
Hongfu gritted his teeth, a cold look in his eyes.
Hearing this, Li Jing took a deep breath: "It's a pity that no matter how I look through the classics, I can't find a way to curb this bloodline. From ancient times to the present, there has never been any record of this bloodline. The only clue so far is
It’s on Li Mi’s body.”
Although the two of them were turned into vampires by Li Mi and were naturally restrained and suppressed by Li Mi, they hated Li Mi extremely in their hearts.
"We have the same bloodline, why were we restrained by Li Mi?" Hong Fu asked.
"According to my speculation, Li Mi's bloodline level must be higher than that of you and me. I have read ancient books in recent days, and this is the only way I can make a calculation. The bloodline of heaven and humans has disappeared for thousands of years, and no one knows what the real bloodline of heaven and humans is.
What kind of thing can only be speculated in secret." Li Jing looked at Hong Fu:
"It is said that the emperor wants to slay the dragon. If you and I can get the dragon's blood, the blood in our bodies will inevitably evolve. Then we can get rid of Li Mi's control and compete with Li Mi."
"Li Mi will not let us leave Wagang Mountain." Hong Fu sighed quietly.
"Yang Xuangan's letter is an opportunity. I heard someone said that Pu Shanggong seems to have a big enmity with Zhu Liming. If we go to assassinate Pu Shanggong, Li Mi will definitely not stop him." Li Jing looked at Hong Fu:
"Li Mi doesn't know about bathing in dragon's blood. This is an opportunity for us."
Egret Academy
In the courtyard of Yu Wenhuaji
The butler stood in front of Yuwen Chengdu with a respectful look on his face: "Eldest Young Master, we have found out that the Li family's Huangmei drama scripts were all written by Zhu Liming, and were bought from Zhu Liming."
"Zhu Liming's handiwork? Is Zhu Liming so capable?" Yuwen Chengdu was stunned.
"Our spies followed the route that Li Jiaban took to Beijing and found that Zhu Liming had contact with Li Jiaban in Xingyang City. Then Li Jiaban suddenly left Xingyang City and rehearsed opera outside Luoyang City for a month, and then
It soared into the sky, the fire was out of control, it was a complete mess."
The housekeeper looked at Yuwen Chengdu: "Now that the Li family is making a lot of money, and the prince is watching, and the empress in the palace is taking care of it, it is really difficult to take action. But that is not the case here with Zhu Liming. As long as the prince opens the door to buy the script, Zhu Liming is expected to
I will never dare to reject the young master’s will.”
"If we have a new script, we can steal the popularity of Li's class, and our own restaurant can also become popular." The butler's eyes shone:
"The Tengwang Tower's current turnover of ten thousand taels of silver per day will be close to four million taels a year, which is almost a quarter of the treasury of the Sui Dynasty."
The old housekeeper's words made Yuwen Chengdu's mind sway. What is the concept of four million taels?
We can raise an army of 100,000!
And he is also an elite soldier who performs one drill a day.
"Has the origin of Zhu Liming been found out?" Yuwen Chengdu asked cautiously.
"From the moment he entered Bailu Academy, everything was turned upside down. He was just from a poor family, and the two brothers and sisters depended on each other, and then he got the opportunity to worship at Qingniu Temple, that's all." The old housekeeper handed over the breakfast.
Just prepare the paperwork.
Yuwen Chengdu took the document, looked at it carefully for a while, and then said with a smile: "It's just the background of Qing Niu Guan. Unfortunately, I thought he was a big shot who could stir up trouble in Bailu Academy, and he had some big origins.
"
At this point, Yuwen Chengdu narrowed his eyes: "Send a message to Zhu Liming and tell him that I will invite him to a banquet today."
The old housekeeper took the order and left.
Yicui Pavilion
Zhu Mingxiao squinted his eyes and looked at the bonfire in front of him quietly. He tightened his huqiu and leaned on the table, deducing the various benefits of the magic circle in his mind.
"The Grandmaster is not unkillable. As long as I set up the magic array, even the Grandmaster can kill you." Zhu Liming clicked his lips:
"It's just that the masters of this world are different from the masters of the magical world in my memory."
"The masters of the magical world only practice fighting spirit. The masters of this world have a very high spiritual magnetic field and can even interfere with matter. They give birth to the vigilance of a cicada that wakes up before the autumn wind moves." Zhu Mingxiao stretched out his hand and added something to the brazier.
Firewood:
"It's a bit evil." Zhu Mingxiao huddled in Hu Qiu. It was now a world of ice and snow. Although the magic stone had magical elements, it was still a mortal body and was still afraid of the cold.
There was a sound of footsteps, which made the snow outside the door creak, and then a slightly older voice came: "I take the liberty of disturbing you, Master Zhu, have you slept?"
"Sleep, come back tomorrow if you have something to do." Zhu Liming looked at the magnetic field of life outside the door and replied calmly.
The words outside the door were paused for a moment, and then he said calmly: "I am the steward of the Yuwen family. On the order of my eldest son, Yuwen Chengdu, I invite you to a banquet tonight."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Yuwen Chengdu? Doesn't he look down on a disciple from a humble family like me with his nostrils turned upward?" Zhu Limingxiao raised his head in surprise.
When I went to Prince Teng's Pavilion with Li Jiancheng and others, the nostrils of Yuwen Chengdu and other powerful children were about to turn to the sky.
Hearing this, Zhu Limingxiao narrowed his eyes: If you show courtesy for nothing, you are either committing adultery or stealing.
"Master Yuwen and I are not familiar with each other, please come back, steward." Zhu Liming said with a smile: "A big family and a big family don't dare to climb high."
The housekeeper stood outside the door, his face ashen, speechless and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
How many years?
How many years has it been since Yuwen Clan became one of the four great clans that no one has dared to refuse Yuwen Clan's invitation in such a tone?
So for a moment I couldn't turn my head around, I was a bit suspicious that I heard wrong, and for a moment I didn't know what to do.
After a while, he came back to his senses and said in a cold voice: "Master Zhu, in this Sui Dynasty, except for the five surnames and three sects, no one dares to refuse the invitation of my Yuwen clan."
"That was before. Isn't it now?" Zhu Liming yawned: "Don't be nagging, I'm going to bed, don't disturb others."
"Haha, Young Master Zhu is indeed a strong-willed and proud man. I only hope that Young Master's pride can continue to support him and never be crushed." After saying this, the butler turned and left.
Watching the magnetic field outside the door go away, Zhu Liming shook his head: "I don't know what it means."
He is not even afraid of Yang Xuangan, but will he be afraid of Yuwen Chengdu?
The world is so big that as long as you have money, you can go there.
Especially since experiencing the undead natural disaster, Zhu Liming's mentality has improved infinitely, to an almost incredible level.
"Since we have offended the Yang family, is there another Yuwen family left?" Zhu Liming shook his head.
Inside Yuwen's small building in Chengdu
At this time, the flames in the brazier were so bright that the whole room was as bright as day.
The wood is made of fine pine wood, and there is no smoky smell at all.
On one side is a table with four side dishes and a jug of wine.
At this time, Yuwen Chengdu was sitting quietly in front of the wine and food, with a look of thought in his eyes, wondering in his heart what attitude he should take towards Zhu Liming if he came later.
"Should I ask him to write the script directly, or should I be gentle and coax him to write the script?" Yuwen Chengdu narrowed his eyes: "It's too difficult."
"That boy dared to confront Yang Xuangan directly today without giving Yang Xuangan any face. If I forced him to write the script, I'm afraid this boy might not give me face." Yu Wencheng is a smart man, and none of the children of these aristocratic families are stupid.
of.
"Furthermore, looking at the attitude between Zhu Liming and Yang Xuangan, it is obvious that there is something fishy between the two parties, and the attitude is not generally bad. A poor scholar who has offended Yang Xuangan and still lives well does not look like a simple person no matter how he looks at it." Yu Wen Chengdu
I made a decision in my mind:
"That's all. When this guy comes later, I'll try to persuade him nicely and promise him numerous empty terms. I'll trick him into getting the script first."
As for whether Zhu Limingxiao would refuse to go to the appointment?
Yuwen Chengdu didn’t even think about it.
He was afraid that he would never dream of it.
A mere scholar from a humble family, if I invite him to a banquet, will he dare to come?
Could it be a joke?
But this kind of joke-like thing actually happened.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and the old butler pushed the door open and walked in. Looking at Yuwen Chengdu who was leaning in front of the table, he stepped forward with an ugly expression, lowered his head and said, "Master!"
"Where's Zhu Liming?" Yuwen Chengdu turned around and looked at the empty door behind the housekeeper, feeling stunned for a while.
"Young Master, Zhu Limingxiao doesn't know how high the heaven and earth are. He actually refused the Young Master's banquet. It's so shameless. We invited you with good words, but this guy dared to refute our reputation. If this matter spreads, I'm afraid he will become Luoyang.
The laughing stock of the powerful. People who don’t know better think that my Yuwen family has already sunk, and even a humble commoner dares not to give my Yuwen family face.”
