Chapter 470: Yanjing does not have seven families
Jiang's house, the front yard, the spring light makes people sleep.
Under an old tree that had sprouted, Jiang Feng was reclining on a rattan chair, holding a book in his hand and flipping through it, with a lazy expression.
Jiang Feng returned to Beijing this time, mainly for Ye Qingxuan, but after that, too many things happened, and he was tired of running, it was rare to have such a leisurely time, but he also enjoyed this idle time.
The book that Jiang Feng was flipping through in his hand was the Tao Te Ching, which was a version that Zhao Wufang had searched for him specifically and was slightly different from the version circulating on the market.
This is a manuscript, the specific age from which it came out, is already unverifiable, if it is transmitted, it is estimated that it is enough to trigger a new hot discussion about Lao Tzu.
Because of this, it is extremely rare, at least not to mention anything else, reading through this book, Jiang Feng has a completely different new perception. It's just that despite doing so much silently, Zhao Wufeng has been doing things more and more silently, this book has been in the room for a long time, if Jiang Feng hadn't accidentally seen it, it is estimated that Zhao Wufeng would not have offered to help him do these things.
"According to ancient legends, Lao Tzu rode a green ox out of Hanguguan in the west, and purple gas came from the east. Jiang Feng muttered softly.
Purple qi from the east, that is a sign of ascension, Lao Tzu is a generation of sages, writing books and establishing the way, Jiang Feng will never doubt the authenticity of this legend.
It's just that what makes Jiang Feng curious is whether Lao Tzu really ascended to immortal in the end.
If so, then why in later generations, there is no record of Lao Tzu after he left the Han Valley in the west.
If not, then where did Lao Tzu go after he left the Han Valley in the west?
These questions seem to be boring, but for Jiang Feng, they are of great enlightening significance, because even if you don't count the great sages like Lao Tzu, the predecessor who left the ruins of ancient martial arts on Lotus Mountain, I cast the sky with my sword, and broke the immortal fate for half a lifetime, but it confirmed that the outstanding people of the earth have never given up the exploration and desire to become immortals.
The way of heaven is unpredictable, the immortal road is ethereal, the earth is in one vein, whether there are people who lift the sun and fly immortals, from all kinds of information in the past dynasties, it is impossible to verify. However, from another point of view, the ancient sages have undoubtedly walked out of an extremely remarkable height on this road.
"The earth is in one vein, and the resources are depleted, has it always been like this, or is there a fault in the middle?, or is there still a secret hidden on the earth that I don't know?" Jiang Feng whispered to himself.
"Young Master. Zhao Wufang walked over at some point and interrupted Jiang Feng's thoughts softly.
Jiang Feng raised his head, and from his angle, he could just see Zhao Wufang's graceful neck, white and delicate, like a piece of white jade under the sparse sunlight.
Xu is aware of Jiang Feng's gaze, Zhao Wufang's neck flushed slightly, and said, "Young Master, there are a few people outside who ask to see you." โ
"Oh, who are they?" Jiang Feng asked.
"Old Man Fang, Old Man Yu, Old Man Ren, and Old Man Yuan. Zhao Wuxian explained.
Fang, Yu, Ren, Yuan, the four major families, looking at Yanjing, are also very prominent and wealthy, although they are much inferior to the seven major families, but after the Li family announced its dissolution, the external voice about the upper position belongs to the four major families.
Jiang Feng had heard a little about it, but he had never cared much about this matter, so he didn't take it to heart, but he didn't expect that the four old men would ask to see each other.
"Call them in. Jiang Feng smiled and said.
Zhao Wufang nodded, and soon, the four old men came into the courtyard, Zhao Wufang went to the room to make tea, and after bringing the tea out, he found that the four old men did not sit down, not because they didn't want to sit down, but because there was really no place to sit.
There was a rattan chair under the tree, Jiang Feng was lying there, and he didn't seem to have any intention of getting up, and the four old men were standing in front of Jiang Feng with embarrassed faces.
Zhao Wuxian hurriedly took out four chairs, placed them under the tree, and invited the four old men to sit down, and the four old men felt somewhat relieved and sat down one after another.
They didn't drink tea, but looked at Jiang Feng, and they were naturally extremely curious about this young man who was in the limelight, disrupted the Li family and the Qin family with the power of one person, and pushed the Jiang family, which was at the bottom of the ranking, to the height it is today.
All kinds of information about Jiang Feng are listed in detail in the text folder of their study, and it can be said that they are quite familiar with Jiang Feng, including Jiang Feng's past behavior, including Jiang Feng's rise and even the things Jiang Feng has done, they are all very familiar with it.
But when they faced Jiang Feng, they found that even so, Jiang Feng was still an absolutely unfamiliar existence to them.
Because it's unfamiliar, it's scary.
Jiang Feng's expression was lazy, lying on the rattan chair and drowsy, as if he didn't know that they were coming, this kind of contempt definitely made them angry in the past, because even a few old men of the Seven Great Families had never been so upright in front of them.
However, now they have to be careful one by one, no matter how dissatisfied they are with Jiang Feng in their hearts, they will definitely not show it on their faces at this moment.
It wasn't until the tea was cold that Jiang Feng yawned and opened his squinted eyes, he seemed to have really just noticed the arrival of the four old men, and then smiled after a moment: "I'm sorry, I'm really a little sleepy, I neglected a few old men." โ
The old man Yuan said busily: "Jiang Shao is polite, I waited for me to come uninvited, disturbed Jiang Shao's rest, and I hope Jiang Shao doesn't mind." โ
This old man Yuan is round, white and fat, looking like a ball of meat, talking and smiling, and a harmonious appearance, he can win the favor of others.
"Where is there anything to mind about, a few old men usually can't be invited, it's my Jiang Feng's honor to come today. Jiang Feng waved his hand and said.
He said it very seriously, and it seemed that it was really his honor, but these words made the four old men feel apprehensive for a while.
The so-called honor, if it were another person, they would absolutely believe it, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was full of brilliance, but when these words came out of Jiang Feng's mouth, how could it not be a taste.
"Jiang Shao, I took the liberty to disturb because there was something I needed to discuss with Jiang Shao. After hesitating for a moment, Old Man Fang said.
Old Man Fang is dry and thin, forming two stark contrasts with Old Man Yuan, with a square face and direct speech.
"Oh, I don't know what's going on?" Jiang Feng asked with a smile.
"That's the case......" Old Man Fang opened his mouth to explain the reason for this, and as soon as the words came out, he felt that something was not quite right, Jiang Feng's smile actually made him feel creepy.
"What does it look like?" Jiang Feng asked lightly.
"Yes-yes-" Old Man Fang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said stumblingly, talking for a long time, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.
"Why is Old Man Fang so nervous, is it still too hot? Jiang Feng greeted.
Zhao Wuxian took a glass of ice water and handed it to Old Man Fang, Old Man Fang took the cup, only to feel that an old face was hot, what the hell is going on, Jiang Feng obviously didn't do anything, why did he have a fear of it from the bottom of his bones?
He held this glass of ice water, and if he didn't drink it, he didn't drink it, as if he was holding a time bomb, and the cold sweat on his forehead was getting more and more.
"Old Man Fang is going to talk about the affairs of the Seven Great Families, right?" Just when Old Man Fang was suffering from gains and losses, Jiang Feng suddenly said with a smile.
"You-how do you know?" Old Man Fang was startled again, and said in a lost voice, his wrist flicked, and a glass of ice water was poured on his trouser leg, but he was unconscious, staring at Jiang Feng deadly.
"It seems that this is the case. Jiang Feng didn't answer Old Man Fang's gaze, his gaze swept over the other three old men, and he smiled: "The four old ladies are a lot older, and they are still running around so diligently, and they are really hard to play the last light and heat for the family's business." โ
The four old men looked at each other, and their faces quietly changed, because they remembered Old Man Qin, Old Man Qin retreated behind the scenes, Qin Guofu came to power, and it was rumored that every Qiฤ was because Jiang Feng was directed, and now Jiang Feng said that they were old, could it be that they were going to be punished?
Then I heard Jiang Feng say again: "I don't know that there are no so-called seven major families for a long time, how many people are so bothered and laborious, what is it for?"
The four old men's eyelids jumped suddenly, Jiang Feng said that there are no seven families, according to the literal meaning, that is, after the Li family announced its dissolution, only six of the seven families remained, and the statement of the seven families was no longer applicable.
But obviously, when Jiang Feng said such a thing in this situation, it could never be understood literally.
The seven major families exist in name only, and the Jiang family takes advantage of the situation to soar, which is already extremely criticized, and the meaning of Jiang Feng's words is very natural, because they think that Jiang Feng wants to build the Jiang family into a super family, and in the future, only the Jiang family will stand out in Yanjing.
This kind of understanding made them all stiff, sweating wildly, and then having the weakness of prostration, they came today, many words have not been spoken, there is no need to say more, from beginning to end, Jiang Feng said a few words, that is, he completely controlled the initiative, played with them in the palm of his hand, and let them come here How well prepared they were, it was like a punch on the cotton, and there was nowhere to focus.
It is hard to imagine that a young man in his twenties would have such scheming and calculation, which inevitably makes them a little sad, but at the same time, it is more of fear and horror.
This Jiang Feng's terrifying was far beyond their imagination.
The four old men didn't even drink tea and got up to say goodbye, one by one they were like mourners, with indescribable wolf bรจi and bitterness, the Jiang family has this son, why worry about the big thing?
Or it really won't take long, the world of Yanjing is the world of the Jiang family!
