I have a supernatural power in my understanding. I built an immortal martial arts empire in the Thre

Chen Qun sighed, with a sad look in his eyes.

"Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong hopes that we will not get involved in the court disputes. In addition, the court needs money and food. We hope that we can donate generously so that the court army can continue to expand."

"I have thought it through. The nation is the greater cause. The honor and disgrace of the individual and the family come second."

"therefore."

As soon as these words came out, all the family heads present were stunned, especially Zheng Hun: "Master Chen, what does this mean?"

"Didn't we just convince Zhen Yi? Why did you change your mind again?"

"You're not really scared, are you?"

"If we give in now, once the imperial examination system is implemented, our family will no longer have the advantage, and we will be just like everyone else."

The other family heads also said angrily: "The Ye family that Ye Feng belonged to before is also a Jizhou family. We helped a lot when we were doing business before."

"Now he is taking advantage of the situation and wants to kill us all? This is too shameless!"

"We can't compromise. If we can't fight, we can go to the Ye family. I also helped them in Yanzhou back then."

"Yes, we cannot compromise. Everything else can be discussed, including the money and grain, but the imperial examination system must be suspended."

Seeing that everyone present was so aggressive and didn't seem to take his words to heart at all, Chen Qun sighed.

He who knows the times is a hero. Today's aristocratic families regard themselves as the masters of the world. Even if there are no problems with the imperial examination system, other problems will arise.

The ship is about to break apart, and if I continue to stay on it I will only end up dead.

Thinking of this, his eyes shone with determination: "What you said makes sense, but my personal ability is limited, so I won't get involved."

"I would also like to advise you that money is something outside of your body. Now the world has changed. If you continue to insist, you may get yourself killed."

Zheng Hun's eyes flashed with complicated light: "What do you mean?"

"Chen Qun, we have known each other for decades. Do you know any inside information?"

"Hurry up and say it!"

Chen Qun shook his head: "That's all I have to say."

"Everyone, let's just accept our fate!"

After saying that, Chen Qun waved his hand and turned to leave. The others' eyes flickered, and they didn't know what to do for a moment.

Many timid people followed Chen Qun and left, but more people looked at Zheng Hun: "Master Zheng, what happened?"

"Why is Chen Qun so frightened?"

"Could it be that Ye Feng came in person? But isn't he busy ascending the throne now?"

Zheng Hun's eyes flickered, and his reason told him that Chen Qun must have encountered an unimaginable threat and felt scared, so he stopped.

But the ambition in his heart told him that as long as he united with these noble families, he would be able to form a powerful resistance in the court.

Besides, there is the Zhen family as a backer in front, and Zhen Yi is in front. Even if he kills, there are so many people below, and they can't kill him. Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Everyone, since this is not the place to talk, let's go to another place."

"Chen Qun really thinks Zhen Yi only recognizes him?"

"We are all here to make the promise made by Patriarch Zhen. Chen Qun is just a representative."

"Walk!!"

The group left immediately, got into their cars, turned through a few alleys and arrived at the Zheng family residence.

Zheng Hun greeted everyone like a host and said with a smile: "Everyone, we have convinced the head of the Zhen family. If his daughter ascends the throne of the queen, she will become our backer."

"By then, the imperial examination system will be meaningless and just a formality."

"When the queen gives birth to a prince in the future, he will be the future emperor. How can we predict the prosperity and wealth we will have now?"

"Our generation, the next generation, and even the next generation can all enjoy prosperity and wealth."

“Although there are obstacles now, as long as they are removed, I think there will be no problem.”

"What do you mean? Brother Zheng, just say it. As long as it is beneficial to us, we will definitely support it with all our strength."

Zheng Hun chuckled: "If we directly oppose the imperial examination system, we will be enemies with Ye Feng. If we are enemies with him now, we will be doomed."

"But we can change our angle and use their spear to attack their shield."

"What do you mean?"

Zheng Hun said: "Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were the ones who led the preparation of the imperial examination system. I heard that they might participate in the imperial examination."

"Let's spread the rumors about these two people behind the scenes, bribe some scholars and students, and have them march in the streets to demonstrate."

"Isn't Ye Feng going to select future pillars of society from these students?"

"Let's let the people he considers to be pillars of society hold a demonstration and see what he does."

"If Zhuge Li and Pang Tong were punished, everyone would know the consequences of interfering with the imperial examination system. Who would be willing to interfere?"

"If those scholars are punished, who will come to take the imperial examination? Who will take this exam that is just for show?"

"What do you think?"

After a brief silence, the heads of the families present stroked their beards and laughed: "Great, great!"

"Brother Zheng's plan is amazing. No matter who is punished according to this plan, it will be beneficial to us!"

"wonderful!"

"wonderful!!"
