Chapter 113: One step to reach the sky, or the bottomless abyss

Hearing the man's intention, is he trying to...

Jiangnan guessed it right!

In Long Duo's eyes, the death of his own grandson is certainly a pity, but in the eyes of an excellent politician, the death of a grandson is nothing, and the death of the groom at the wedding is the most deadly thing!

You should know that Ribes' two brides, one is Melinda, who has a close connection with the saint. On the eve of the saint's return, the Rhine family must marry Melinda to ensure that when the saint returns, their family will be safe and sound in the great changes in the mainland! The other bride is Mrs. Liszt, who controls the lifeline of the mainland's steel ordnance. Although this person is a black widow with a bad reputation, the wealth and trade routes she controls are enough to ensure that the Rhine family is invincible in the Imperial War!

Therefore, after Ribes' death, the decision that was most conducive to the Rhine family was to find someone to pretend to be Ribes and let the wedding go on!

Jiangnan, who looks very similar to Ribes... isn't it the best person to pretend to be?

Long Duo closed his eyes calmly, "Everyone present listened to me. In the name of Long Duo, Roddy was Ribes before the wedding. Who would say that Ribes died, or the groom Ribes was fake..."

He didn't continue, but the family warriors had already agreed, "Master Ribes is not dead!"

"Yeah!" Long Duo's eyes looked at Soren again. Soren hurriedly said, "On behalf of the Sumore family, I promise not to see everything that happened just now, and I will never leave the Rhine's castle before the wedding!"

Long Duo nodded and pulled out the golden spears from the wolf king one by one. "Sophis, my grandson is not dead, the wedding is still going on, your crime will naturally not be established. But..." His voice suddenly became cold, "The Zhanya Empire has fought the Daliu River, and the empire's full-scale war is about to break out. Do you want me to forget what happened today and understand what to do?"

Sophis spitted out a mouthful of blood, "Old man, during the war, the 100,000 wolf tribe of Mount Rainey, obeyed the Reinhardt family, but you must let the professor tell me the whereabouts of my son Victor!"

"I'll talk about Victor's affairs after the wedding!"

Long Duo's eyes returned to Jiangnan, "As for you... you are a smart person, come with me!"

...

A warm spring breeze blew into the neck, carrying a warm heat current, but Jiangnan felt a little cold.

Because he had followed Long Duo to an ancient study room, Long Duo was sitting at the desk, pointing to the chair opposite and following him, "Sit down!"

Jiang Nan leaned on the chair, his body was loose, and the typical gangster posture of a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.

When Long Duo saw Jiang Nan's appearance, his brows frowned slightly, and then said calmly: "I will answer one question first: Where did your totem power come from?"

Jiang Nan touched his chin, "I can only answer the old man alone and one place - Yurien, Empire Culinary Academy!"

Long Duo stared at Jiang Nan's eyes for two minutes, but Jiang Nan looked at each other happily without fear, with a faint mystery in his eyes.

After a long time, Long Duo nodded, "Since it is Yurien and the Imperial Culinary Academy, there is no need to ask - the Rhine family and they are not enemies! But you must remember for me: you were born in the Rhine family, no matter where, your strength, your life, and everything about you belongs to my Reinhardt family!"

Jiang Nan stood up tactfully, "I will continue in the name of Roddy, and always be loyal to the Reinhardt family!"

"You are indeed a smart man. From today on, I will give you the glorious surname of Reinhardt!"

Long Duo smiled and then said calmly: "You have heard what I said to the Wolf King. Then, Roddy Reinhardt, do you understand what you should do?"

"Of course I understand that from today until the end of the wedding, I will be the third heir to the family - Ribes!"

"Not bad, but not just these!" Long Duo said lightly, "I also want you to complete two tasks with Ribes' identity. As long as you do well, I can treat all your crimes as if you have not seen them. I can even give you a high position as a senior official of your family, so that you can reach the sky and walk on the highest stage of the imperial political arena!"

Jiang Nan licked his lips, "Is this a deal?"

"It's not a transaction, it's an order, my Longduo's order!"

"Okay, it's an order!" Jiang Nan grabbed the water cup in front of Long Duo, drank the tea inside in one sip, and turned the tea cup locally, "Tell me specifically, what do I have to do to satisfy you?"

There was no trace of emotional traces in Long Duo's eyes, "Your first task: the wedding of Ribes and Melinda is a marriage between the Rhine family and the Jupiter Saint, which is of extraordinary significance. Therefore, no matter what method you use - dirty or ugly, you must assist the butler Gigi to defeat Yin Lao and ensure the marriage between the family and the Tianyin clan!" He smiled calmly, "But, you are not Ribes after all, and you cannot really enter the bridal chamber with Melinda! So I ask you, after completing Melinda's wedding, find a way to make Ribes 'dead by accident' and make Melinda the widow of the Rhine family!"

"Dirty, ugly... Can I understand this way? In order to complete the task, I can do whatever I can. As long as I don't break the sky, the old man will cure me the aftermath, right?"

After getting Long Duo's default, Jiang Nan nodded with satisfaction, "What about the second mission?"

"The second mission is about Mrs. Lister." Long Duo sighed, "Actually, Ribes has also heard of the reputation of Black Widow and is unwilling to marry Mrs. Lister, but for the sake of the family's arms supply..." His eyes suddenly became sharp, "But I am not at ease with Black Widow, during the wedding, you should use the identity of the groom to find out her background!" He paused, "If the investigation result is: Mrs. Lister really married into the Rhine family, then you can refer to the method of treating Melinda and make her a widow in the Rhine family! But if Black Widow has other intentions..."

Jiang Nan's heart was thrilled: "Kill her?"

"No, Mrs. Lister's wealth is related to the rise and fall of the empire. You cannot kill her, or even avoid offending her." Long Duo smiled strangely: "If Mrs. Lister really has other intentions, you must find a way to get Mrs. Lister to terminate the engagement on his own initiative!"

Jiang Nan was stunned, "Why should I let the black widow break the engagement on his own initiative?"

Long Duo's answer is mysterious, "I will send you two assistants, they will tell you these tiny things. Roddy, the wedding will end in half a month. At that time, I hope you can let me see satisfactory results!"

Jiang Nan threw away the teacup, turned around and left.

Long Duo said in surprise: "You just left like that, haha, cunning little guy, I thought you would bargain again!"

"As you said, I'm a smart person!"

Jiang Nan stood at the door, spread his hands and bowed, "So I understand that in front of the world's most powerful person, my best choice is to perform the mission immediately, otherwise... I also want you to kill me personally, or catch Alisa and Su Su to threaten me?"

Long Duo smiled.

Then he seemed to say to the air, "Rody is a smart person, let Alisa and Susu go!"

...

When he left Longduo's study, Jiang Nan had already changed into Ribes's dress, and he was surrounded by the two water men under Ribes.

"Mr. Ribes, our names are Seff and Senna, both of the mid-grade ninth-level water totem masters. The old man ordered us to assist you in completing your mission - from now on, we will obey you all!"

A water man said, "The old man is decisive in his work and does not like to procrastinate, so please make a decision immediately, should you help butler Gigi defeat Mr. Yin first, or to investigate Mrs. Liszt's background!"

"You guys are really anxious!"

Jiang Nan raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at the two of them, "Okay, I'll go on the mission now... Well, I've seen Melinda, so let's accompany me to see the legendary Black Widow first."

"Mrs. Lister does not live in the castle. She is in the fifth block of the city. Please follow us..."

The two water men were halfway through their words, and suddenly stared at Jiang Nan and closed their mouths.

Jiang Nan looked back and said in surprise: "Vilan?"

He hurriedly made Ribes' noble demeanor, "Oh, my sister, why are you..."

"Stop pretending with me!"

Weilan pointed to his chest and said word by word: "I am now a family official, my granddaughter whom I love the most. I am qualified to know your dual identity! Roddy, Professor, when do you want to deceive me??" Two lines of tears flowed down my cheeks, "I don't want to mention the past. I will only ask you one thing, do you really want to pretend to be Ribes and marry another woman!"

"Villan, I'm just doing family missions..."

Jiang Nan wanted to explain that he was not going to marry Ribes, but the two water men coughed gently behind their backs, their faces unpleasant, and they were obviously saying, "You are not allowed to enter the bridal chamber afterwards. It is a family secret. Without the orders of the old man, you will be guilty of revealing it!"

So Jiangnan shut up and left Weilan with an ambiguous opening remark.

"Task? Ha, Mission! Did you take me to heart??" Veran indeed misunderstood this opening remark. She grabbed Jiangnan's collar. "It's been ten years, we have known each other for ten years. What about you? But what about you? Half a year ago, it would be fine if you didn't admit me. Today? For a mission, you have to betray our vows on Mount Langnukis and marry another woman!?"

The vows of Mount Langnukis were the love agreement made by Roddy and Vilan!

But Jiangnan is not Roddy. He doesn't like Weilan's irritable temper, and he doesn't mind his psychological shadow that deserves to be unable to find his girlfriend. So he shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Willan, Roddy is really sorry for you. You beat Roddy, scold Roddy, and let Roddy do the lowest slave job. Roddy has never complained..." But I, Jiangnan, have nothing to be sorry for you!

Jiang Nan continued: "But I made it clear to you half a year ago. From that day on, you were your noble lady, I was my slave, and there was no relationship between us!"

"Nothing is related, haha, nothing is related!"

Weilan let go of Jiangnan's collar, took a few steps back, and laughed to the sky.

Suddenly, her expression became shrill and ferocious, "Ten years of knowing each other, two years of love, do you think of a word? Roddy! I and you..."

"Vilan Reinhart!"

Long Duo's cold snorted from the study, "I don't care what happened between you and Roddy. Let Roddy leave and let Roddy do what he should do. Do you understand? This is your responsibility as a descendant of Rhein!"

"Grandpa, I don't accept it. Why do I have to give up my man for a word of responsibility?"

"Forget what happened between you and Roddy, or, like your father, be expelled from the Rhine family genealogy, be an illegitimate son who is not recognized by his ancestors, Vilan, you choose your own choice!"

Weilan wanted to say something, but the two water men stood her out one after another!

Moreover, the two of them kept raising Weilan to the back door of the castle, and threw it on the ground with their hands. They also said coldly: "Weilan, the old man doesn't want to see you disturb the wedding, so you are not allowed to enter the house before the wedding ends!"

Bang!

The dark iron door suddenly closed!

"Damn it!" Weilan was so angry that she smashed a lion statue in the back door, and then she leaned against the ruins and started crying, muttering, "Rhine's family... do I care about it? I just want to get back to my own man!"

Pa, someone patted Weilan's shoulder from behind, Weilan turned his head and said angrily: "Get out, I don't have time to pay attention to you!"

"But I'm in the mood to pay attention to you!"

A voice that was more irritable, more fierce, and more powerful than Vilan!

A woman grabbed Vilan's hair with her.

This is a lady in her 40s in her red dress, with long red hair and red eyes. She looks extremely stingy! "I just wanted to give me a gift and leave, but I didn't expect that I would find you, a little girl... The two of them said that your name is Veran, you are the daughter of 'St. Owens'? Do you have a big brother, named West?"

Weilan was stunned and said angrily: "My father is indeed called 'Owens', but he is just a shameful illegitimate son who has been dead for many years. He is not St. Owens!"

"Your father is dead?"

Mrs. Red was stunned, "Why did she die? Where was she buried?"

"Does this have anything to do with you? Let me go!"

"I won't let go of the fuck. What can you do to me!"

Having said that, Mrs. Red also put Vilan on the ground, dusted off her body with her own hands, and pointed at a red agate necklace on her chest, "Have St. Owens mentioned this necklace to you? My name is Wuding, Mrs. Wuding!"

...

After Weilan left, Jiang Nan sighed silently, it was over, I hope that from now on, I will never have any relationship with Weilan again!

"Master Ribes, Vilan will not disturb you anymore. Will you go to see Mrs. Liszt immediately?" The two water men came back and bowed to ask Jiangnan.

"Yeah, let's go!"

Jiang Nan nodded a little absent. When he walked out of the castle gate, he was still listless, but when he arrived in the fifth block, at the door of the manor where Mrs. Liszt was temporarily living, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

"This manor is only inhabited by Mrs. Lister and her entourage, right?"

A water man said: "Yes, for the safety of Mrs. Liszt, the family guards have secretly surrounded this manor. Unless they hold the command arrow from Mr. Longduo or the handwritten letter from Mrs. Liszt, no one can enter the manor!"

"Then this person... must be Mrs. Liszt's subordinate?"

Jiangnan's eyes were full of interest.

Following his fingertips, a strong man with a strong face was walking out of the manor. The strong man was dressed in a vegetarian shirt and a thick leather hat. Although he was majestic, he was just an inconspicuous little person in Xianzhi City, where there were many masters.
