Chapter 574: Purple Clothes (Four)

This is also the Holy Alliance to prevent the local real power from being deeply rooted. It forms a trend that cannot be lost, allowing the five elders of the five sides to have a chance to challenge after the five elders are born. If the challenge is successful, it can replace the challenger's position. If the challenge fails, it can only stay on the spot!

Usually after the five elders are born, it is possible that the two of them will come out of the same place, so they need to compete for the final victory or defeat. Those who win can choose their own position, while those who lose can only go to the vacant position to work.

Therefore, there are no geographical restrictions on the five parties and five elders, but under normal circumstances, no one wants to work on other people's territory. At this time, they can also abstain from the power, so the sixth substitute will come.

The Holy Alliance forbids the killing of each other, at least not to harm their lives, and the elders will not interfere. Xiao Han wants to kill Mo Huaigu, but only the challenge after the five elders elected. The challenge is not about life or death. This also gives the five elders a chance to resolve the conflict of long-cherished wishes. Any grudges can be resolved in the challenge, but it cannot be resolved at once. It can be the next time. However, in history, there are not one master who died in such a challenge as the Holy Alliance, but two of them were disabled. One was blind and the other had their legs cut off, but neither of them lived for too long.

So in order to avoid the situation where the four people in the south were killed by each other at the recommendation meeting, he felt it was necessary to say hello to the three kings of Zi, Bai and Lan and tell them that he was not in the position of the old man in the south. This would offset their hostility and he would be more relaxed at the five old man's recommendation meeting in the future.

Of course this is an ideal idea. Even if you can't reach a tacit understanding with the three of you, it's nothing. Then you can only rely on your own abilities.

Regardless of whether the Purple-Yihou was waiting for the price, the news of the Governor's Office sent someone to inquire about the cooperation was quickly leaked. The wealthy businessmen and nobles in Mengge City were all moved by the news. They all knew that Tianxiangju had obtained a magical spice recipe, and the business was resurrected. In addition, the dishes had dozens of varieties than other restaurants, with good color, fragrance and taste, which attracted many diners at once. The average attendance rate was more than 90% per day, and the number of money could be kept soft.

Think about it, Tianxiangju is not large in scale, with a net profit of at least 50,000 gold coins per day. In this month, Ziyi Hou earned at least 1.5 million gold coins. In fact, I don’t know this number. It is estimated that more than 2 million yuan will be more than 20 million yuan in a year. This investment of 100 million yuan, even if it is land, it will only be 150 million yuan. If the Tianxiang Entertainment City is built, it will definitely be more than catering, and the scale is at least four times that of the original Tianxiangju. Even if it only has half the attendance rate every day, there will definitely be a profit of 30,000 to 40,000 yuan in a year. There are other entertainment projects. After completion, it will definitely be the largest gold-selling cave in the north of Mengge City. Maybe in a year, the capital will be back. With such a huge business opportunity, who would not want to get a shot?

But except for the Governor's Office, there is no other person who dares to contact the Ziyihou, because although they see that Tianxiang Entertainment City has a broad prospect, they are also afraid of the Ouyang family. After all, the Ziyihou and the Ouyang family are in a match, which is something that these nobles and wealthy businessmen dare not provoke. If they anger the Ouyang family, as long as they say a word, their family will probably evaporate.

Besides, the Governor of Heita was domineering and he got involved in his business. Who dared to easily get involved? Wouldn't that take food from the tiger's mouth? Although the Ouyang family is a cross-river dragon, Heita is a real local emperor!

"Xiao Yuan, how many gold coins are there on the book?" The embroidered building of the Ziyi Hou Mansion, the Ziyi Hou, who was so beautiful in nature, asked a drooping girl behind her with a hint of worry.

In fact, Xiao Yuan is already over the age of a girl. She is almost fifty years old. Because she has been following the Ziyi Hou and entered the Marquis’ Mansion at the age of eighteen. Thirty years have passed. She still looks like a girl, without any change. Even her outfit is the girl’s outfit.

Who would have known that Xiao Yuan was already a master of the holy level when he first entered the Marquis' Mansion. Now that thirty years have passed, his cultivation has reached the peak of the holy level. Such talent may be considered a monster in the eyes of outsiders.

But in the eyes of the Ziyi Hou, she was already a master of the holy level at the age of sixteen and entered the god level at the age of forty. Now that countless years have passed, her cultivation has reached the point where ordinary people need to look up to. But how many people understand the true meaning of the four words "the loneliness of a master"?

"Miss, there are about 12.5 million." Xiao Yuan opened his mouth and said, looking very familiar with the financial situation at home!

"Is it enough for early projects?" Ziyi Hou frowned slightly and asked with a comb in his hand.

"According to our calculations, the preliminary project requires at least 20 million gold coins, of which about 18 million will be required to purchase materials. Even if the salary of the craftsmen can be temporarily suspended, the funds we have at least 7.5 million yuan in our hands!" Xiao Yuan said.

"Then how much funds can be withdrawn if the repair of the Marquis' Mansion is suspended?" asked Marquis Ziyi.

"Not much, only 500,000." Xiao Yuan said. Although the Ziyi Marquis announced that it would be a shortage of money to repair the Ziyi Marquis' Mansion, she only gave Xiao Yuan a budget of one million gold coins in the aristocratic family. The huge Ziyi Marquis' Mansion has been in disrepair for a long time. If this major repair is made, one million gold coins will be relatively tight.

"What about the cost and compensation for the repair of Ouyang Shijia to Tianxiangju?"

"If the account can be received in time, there will be at least five million gaps!" Xiao Yuan calculated and said.

"Is there any movement in the Ouyang family? Three days have passed, but there is no reaction at all!" The Ziyi Hou couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Although she was not afraid of the Ouyang family, she blamed the Ouyang family for breaking her plan.

There was also the damn Governor's Mansion, which made the nobles in Mengge City scared me so much that they didn't dare to come to talk to her about cooperation. She was willing to cooperate with the Governor's Mansion. Although the black-hearted Governor of the Governor's Mansion was also a tycoon who was sucking people and not spitting bones, at least he was more credible and did not take over. Moreover, he had a stumble with the Ouyang family, which was a natural ally!

But this natural ally offered his intention to cooperate, but there was no movement for three days. It may be because he didn't care about it, or it may be just destroying his own station!

Damn it, the black-hearted governor must have a force supporting him, otherwise he would not dare to have a quarrel with the Ouyang family!

There is also the substitute named "Sun Wukong". There is such a master around the Black-hearted Governor. Why didn't you notice it at all before?

The Ouyang Family did not react, but was very responsive, but mainly internally. When the incident in Mengge City and the wanted order were sent to the Ouyang Family, the Ouyang Family immediately exploded. The elders and children who were relatively close to Ouyang Feng, who were usually close to Ouyang Feng, asked the head of the family to write a letter to the emperor to severely punish the crime of the innocent detaining the children of the Ouyang Family, and revoked the wanted order, and also compensate and apologize to the Ouyang Family.

This request is undoubtedly a dream. Ouyang Feng's group of people are used to being arrogant and do not take the royal family of the Minglan Empire and a small provincial governor seriously. In their eyes, even a prince is not as good as Ouyang Ke's finger, let alone a small governor.

Of course, the Governor of the Black Tower is a god-level master. There are not many people in the Ouyang family, otherwise they would not be so clamoring. And even those who know this secret would not say it. Isn’t this destroying one’s own might?

The Ouyang family quickly split into two factions. One faction was naturally led by the head of the family Ouyang Xiong, who advocated clarifying the facts and then deciding the solution. The other faction was more radical and asked to take the family's soldiers to Mengge City to directly rob Ouyang Feng's uncle and nephew, and then destroyed the Governor of Heita.

If you use force, it will be exactly what the opponent wants. Even if you make trouble with the emperor, no one would believe that the Ouyang family would attack the Public Security Bureau of Mengge City at this time to rebel. However, if the Ouyang family uses family force to retaliate without reason, and the target is a governor of the Minglan Empire, the nature will be bad. Even if it is not a rebellion, it will be almost done!

The elders of the Ouyang family have ulterior motives. They all oppose anything that the head of the family agrees. As long as they can defeat the head of the family's prestige, they can do nothing they can't do, anyway, just talk.

Because the genius Ouyang Ke was beaten up by Xiao Han and lost his memory, Ouyang Xiong, the head of the family, had a difficult life in the Ouyang family. Although he had strong cultivation, he was not an enemy, but a tribe member. He could not even be strong even if he wanted to be strong. Everything should be based on the interests of the family and unity.

The Ouyang family quarreled for three days, but there was no specific result. Ouyang Xiong finally decided to understand the incident first and then decide how to deal with it. What Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Ke did in Mengge City did not represent the Ouyang family.

If the Ouyang Family is wrong, the Ouyang Family will give Mengge City an explanation. If the Ouyang Family is not wrong in the whole matter, the Ouyang Family will also reserve the right to appeal to the emperor!

The Ouyang Shijia maintained a relatively restrained attitude towards the whole thing, which shows that the helmsman of the Ouyang Shijia has not been blinded by anger and has made a more correct decision!

The person sent to Mengge City to investigate the truth was actually Xiao Han's old acquaintance, Ouyang Lin, the foreign affairs elder of the Ouyang family!

This is a mature and polite elder. Ouyang Xiong sent him here to fear of intensifying the conflict. Moreover, Ouyang Lin is also the backbone of the Ouyang Xiong faction and has great prestige in the Ouyang family.

Ouyang Lin set out from Mocheng. Even if he was flying monsters, it would take at least two days to arrive in Mengge City. Moreover, he was not alone. Most of the children of the Ouyang family in Mengge City were under house arrest. Ouyang Lin had no one to use, so he could only bring people from the base camp.

"Ouyang Lin is here and notified the flight transportation station. Once Ouyang Lin arrives at Mengge City, he will let Xiao Hu monitor everyone in the name of protection!" Xiao Han sneered. Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Ke are father-son relationships. It has been three days since Ouyang Feng disappeared like the world. It is obvious that Ouyang Feng is most likely to sneak back to Mengge City. How could a person who loves his children so much be willing to leave his son and run away by himself?

"Ouyang Lin's purpose this time is the same as ours, to find Ouyang Feng to find out the truth. I think if Ouyang Feng knew that Ouyang Lin came to Mengge City, he would definitely go to see him." Xiao Lu asserted.

"No, Ouyang Feng knew that he had made a big mistake this time. He would rather take Ouyang Ke to the world than return to the Ouyang family, so he would definitely be willing to meet Ouyang Lin. Besides, the two of them are not from the same faction within the Ouyang family, and the ghost has pointed out this point." Xiao Han shook his head and rejected Xiao Lu's judgment.

"Then Ouyang Lin is from the Ouyang family and must be more familiar with Ouyang Feng than us. Maybe he can find Ouyang Feng in front of us. If we look too tightly, wouldn't we give them a chance?" Xiao Han asked back.

"If we look too loose, Ouyang Lin will not dare to act rashly. On the contrary, the more we are prepared, the more Ouyang Lin will think that the inside story is complicated. If we don't want him to see Ouyang Feng, the more he will have to find a way to see Ouyang Feng!" Xiao Han reminded, "Ouyang Lin is an old fox for decades, and must not use conventional means to deal with him!"

"Lord, I understand that we can't be too loose or too tight, so that the other party has no chance." Xiao Hu said with understanding.

"Well, Xiao Hu is right. You have to leave some gaps for Ouyang Lin. In addition, I guess the emperor will send an imperial envoy here, and he will be back in the next few days. Xiao Lu, what do you plan to arrange for these people?" Xiao Han asked.

"Lord, it depends on who the emperor will send. If it is the opponent of the Ouyang family, then I will arrange them to Ouyang Lin and the others to live next door. If not, then I will be worshipped as a Bodhisattva." Xiao Lu said with a smile.

"Do you still know the Bodhisattva?" Xiao Han smiled.

"Of course, Bodhisattvas are also a kind of god. Isn't they the god worshipped by the lord's hometown?" Xiao Lu smiled.

Xiao Han smiled. These words were leaked from his mouth. When asked, he could only talk to his hometown where he was far away. Over time, these people actually believed it, and he couldn't tell them the truth. He could only laugh it off. Anyway, they wouldn't say it in front of outsiders.

"Who will be the imperial envoy this time?" Xiao Han asked.

"The two most likely people are Dong Jianhui, the Bauhinia Hou. This person has always been fair and honest in the court. If he serves as the imperial envoy to investigate the case of Ouyang Feng's attack on the Public Security Bureau, we probably only need to do our duty, but we may have to be wronged. This person cannot rub sand in his eyes. If he finds that your identity is wrong, he will definitely continue to investigate. It is this personality. He offended many nobles, including the Ouyang family. However, he is fair in his work. The nobles who committed the crime hate and fear him, but they have no choice but to do anything to him. Who said that his ancestors were once the founding heroes!" Xiao Lu introduced.

"Oh, the founding hero, isn't the Bauhinia Marquis family a history of thousands of years?" Xiao Han said in surprise.

"It's true that the history is long, but after several ups and downs, I've only become a second-class marquis, which is due to his hard work for the country." Xiao Lu said.

"Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. The court is full of corrupt people. How could he tolerate a fair and selfless person? He has survived for so many years and has become a second-class marquis. This is a big miracle!" Xiao Han sighed.

"Haha, Dong Jianhui has had three ups and downs. The time he went to jail was almost the same as his time as his official position." Xiao Lu said with a smile.

"Oh, there are such strange things, tell me?" Xiao Han became interested.

"This Dong Jianhui, when he was young..." Xiao Lu opened his mouth and said it. Whenever he spoke ups and downs, Xiao Han also sighed. The ups and downs of life are so exciting. Dong Jianhui insists on his ideals and beliefs and does not go with the flow. It is rare!

After listening to Dong Jianhui's story, Xiao Han became equally curious about the second person. It should not be simple to be able to compete with someone like Dong Jianhui.

"Haha, lord, this second brother is known as the tumbler in the court of the Minglan Empire. He is now 120 years old. He has been the minister of the Ministry of Personnel for sixty years. He has not moved for the past sixty years. He is still the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and the minister of the Ministry of Personnel has been changed to more than a dozen." Xiao Lu said with a smile.

"It's true that he's a tumbler. Isn't this old guy tired of it?" Xiao Han smiled.

"If he became an imperial envoy this time, it would be the first time he had left the capital in twenty years." Xiao Lu said.

"I haven't left the capital for twenty years. How can he become an official in the Ministry of Personnel? How can the officials below be assessed?" Xiao Han said strangely.

"He is the least powerful among the ministers of the Ministry of Personnel, and he only has a group of officials who have no real power, but his title is not low. He has a first-class marquis and aristocrats in the capital." Xiao Lu said.

"That's just a confused official?" Xiao Han said in surprise.

"It's indeed a confused official. He was not promoted by his strength at all. He had a good sister, a concubine of the late emperor. He was not dead yet and had a kind of nurturing the current emperor. So this younger brother took extra care and was idle in the Ministry of Personnel, which was to raise his hands and clap his hands." Xiao Lu explained.

"These two are from heaven and the other from underground. What is the emperor's intention? Who do they tend to send?" Xiao Han asked.

"If it is uncomfortable to find the Ouyang family, the emperor will probably regard our strong Marquis Dong as the pioneer. If the emperor does not want to have a quarrel with the Ouyang family, it is probably this tumbler." Xiao Lu said.

"What do you think?" Xiao Han had never seen the emperor, and he was even less clear about how entangled the grudge between the royal family of the Minglan Empire and the Ouyang family, so it was difficult to draw a conclusion. After all, Xiao Lu had Liu Shun, the intelligence leader, by his side, and he knew more than he knew.

"The ghost means that Dong Jianhui is more likely." Xiao Lu said, "but it is not ruled out that it is the tumbler."

"You said both sides. I see you are almost the same as that tumbler. Asking questions is a waste of time!" Xiao Han glared at Xiao Lu and said.

"My lord, my judgment may be that the strong man's chances of coming." Xiao Lu said hurriedly, "After tonight, news will be heard from the imperial capital. You can tell at a glance."

"Then you can just receive it. The reputation of Hei Tower has been around these years. Don't let this stubborn old man cause trouble." Xiao Han said.
