Sun Jingzhong shook his head. "He's not here. I met the director of the Inspection Department."
"Director of the Inspection Department?"
Sun Qiaoqiao exclaimed. She had been in the imperial capital for more than half a year and was familiar with the powerful position of the Director of the Inspection Department.
To put it bluntly, let alone his father, even if it was the Minister of Personnel, he would be in big trouble if he offended the other party.
"He's the head of the Xuanyi Guards, holding the power of life and death. How dare he be willing to meet with my father?"
Sun Jingzhong looked at his daughter speechlessly and sighed, "He said he is Xiaoliu's elder!"
Sun Qiaoqiao subconsciously clenched her fingers, and fear and regret finally appeared on her face.
"Now you know you're afraid?"
Sun Jingzhong whispered, "I have done what I should do as a father. From now on, we can only leave it to fate and see how Xiaoliu can vent his anger."
.....
The Zhang Mansion is more like a city within a city than a mansion.
Dozens of manors come together to form a formidable super family in the imperial capital, the Zhang family of the imperial capital!
In a manor, Zhang Xun, the second son of the current Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, is entertaining guests.
Among these people, some were sons of nobles or heirs of important officials of the six ministries. More than ten of them gathered together and set up two tables, chatting and laughing, making it very lively.
"Haha, you didn't see Lu Xiaoliu's expression today. It was really funny."
"So what if he's the Lu family's heir? He'll still be defeated if he meets our Young Master Zhang!"
"It's so satisfying to see Song Xuan's brother-in-law embarrassed like this. It's really satisfying!"
"It's normal for young people to quarrel and be jealous of each other. I don't believe that Lu Xiaoliu would be so shameless as to go back and complain to his parents. He has to suffer this loss whether he wants to or not!"
"Come on, let's toast to Master Zhang!"
Zhang Xun is in his early thirties, tall and straight, with a very handsome appearance. Although his father is a civil servant, he is also a martial arts expert, and now he has also reached the level of a first-class cultivator.
He stood up, holding his wine glass, and said, "After holding back the anger for so many years, I finally feel better today!"
"Back then, Song Xuan relied on his fighting prowess to treat Lu Qingxue as his concubine, not even giving us a chance to compete.
After waiting for so many years, I finally got this opportunity to vent my anger!
He stole our childhood dreams, so I ruined his relationship with his brother-in-law. Isn't that disgusting? Who wouldn't be so? "
Chapter 499 It’s so hard to keep the family business, there are always idiots holding it back!
As the wine flowed, everyone exclaimed in delight.
But at this moment, the door of the banquet hall was suddenly kicked open, and a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance walked in quickly with a stick in his hand.
Zhang Xun was stunned. "Father?"
He was a little confused.
His father has always been busy with official duties. Even if he has free time, he is always out for social events. He is rarely seen on weekdays. Unexpectedly, when everyone was having a good time today, his father came over with a stick.
Zhang Yuan, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, picked up a stick and hit Zhang Xun without saying a word!
"I stole your dream, didn't I?"
"You ruined my relationship, didn't you?"
"You are so capable, why don't you go to heaven!"
One stick after another came down on Zhang Xun's body. While beating him, Zhang Yuan scolded him, without any of the composure that a minister of the Ministry of Personnel should have.
"Mother! How could I have given birth to such a fool like you!"
Tired from beating, Zhang Yuan leaned on the stick and panted, but the anger on his face did not diminish at all. It was obvious that he was really angry.
There were a lot of things to do in the Ministry of Personnel today, and it was already late when he returned home. He wanted to rest early, but he found out that his evil son had provoked the legitimate son of the Lu family.
Is this okay?
"It's okay that you, Zhang Xun, eat, drink, have fun, and bully men and women every day, but at least you have some brains and know who to mess with and who not to mess with.
For all the troubles you caused in the past, your father turned a blind eye and never held it against you. I thought you would become more sensible as you grew older.
But I didn't expect that you, Zhang Xun, are so capable. If you don't make a sound, it's fine. But when you do, it's amazing! You're going to pierce the sky!"
Zhang Xun stood there and let his father beat him. He had an innate level of cultivation and didn't care at all about the strength his father was exerting on him.
After his father was tired of beating and scolding him, he raised his head with some dissatisfaction.
"Dad, you're getting old and getting less courageous!"
"What did I do? I just liked a girl and asked her out for a walk. I didn't do anything!"
"Lu Xiaoliu himself is incompetent and can't win the girl's heart. Can he blame me for this?"
"The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. Just because he likes her, others can't pursue her? Isn't the Lu family too overbearing?"
When he said this, others immediately agreed.
"Yes, uncle, it's normal for young people to have some emotional disputes. Why are you so angry?"
"There's a little conflict between the younger generations, and it doesn't involve anything else. The elders of the Lu family can't lose face and deal with us, a group of younger generations, right?"
"That's right. All of us got beaten up by Song Xuan because we wanted to get close to Lu Qingxue, but didn't our elders say anything?"
"That's right, my sister was beaten by Lu Qingxue before, and the elders in the family didn't react at all!"
"The Song and Lu families were the first to start this. They allowed us to start this, but we are not allowed to use some tricks?"
Listening to the chaotic sounds around him, Zhang Yuan felt tired.
"Normally, conflicts between younger generations won't become too serious."
"But this is a different time. What was the situation before and what is the situation now?"
"The one who reigned before was the old emperor, and the commander of the Xuanyi Guard was Ye Tian. Who is it now? Can't you open your eyes and take a good look?"
"It's easy to start a business, but hard to maintain it. It's too hard to keep a family business. There will always be a bunch of idiots holding you back!"
He pointed at the group of dandy young masters and said in a cold voice: "Today, I have discussed with you elders in the Ministry of Personnel that the world situation has changed. How to protect ourselves in the new dynasty is a difficult problem!
Who would have thought that before we could even work out how to break the impasse, you would give us a gift that would wipe out our entire family!
Good! That’s really good!
Zhang Xun and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. "Just for a woman, isn't that possible?"
"In the past, it wouldn't have happened, but now Song Xuan is eager to find an opportunity, and you idiots just handed over the knife!
The Song guy must be so happy right now! "
Zhang Yuan was so angry that he cursed, "Fuck your mother, why did I give birth to such a jerk like you!
"This idiot only knows how to bully the weak and fear the strong, but you guys only pick on the tough ones!"
After cursing for a while, Zhang Yuan waved towards the door, and then an old man in gray walked in.
"Uncle Fu, keep watch. From now on, no one is allowed to step out of this room without my order!"
He sighed, "I don't know if the face our ancestors left behind is still useful now... I hope Song Xuan has a smaller appetite, otherwise this time, my Zhang family will probably bleed heavily!"
...
In a pavilion where Song Xuan and Yao Yue lived, Song Xuan, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and withdrew his mind from the sky above the Zhang family mansion.
Craftsman Song Erni was sawing wood not far away. When she saw her brother wake up, she couldn't help but smile.
"Have you figured out what the Zhang family is doing?"
Song Xuan hummed speechlessly.
"I thought they were trying something new, or maybe it was a coalition of civil and military officials trying to compete with the Xuanyi Guards. But in the end, it turned out to be just a bunch of idiots pissed off about their white moonlight being stolen, secretly doing something disgusting."
Victoria Song enviously said: "It shows that my sister-in-law is very charming. Even after getting married, there are still people who can't let her go.
Unlike me, I don’t even have anyone who would fight for me and get hurt!”
Song Xuan rolled his eyes at her. "Why do I feel so offended by what you said? They want to fight, but have you given them a chance?"
Victoria Song chuckled a bit smugly, "It's not that I don't give you a chance, it's just that I'm too good. You can't even speak properly when you see me, how can I give you a chance?"
"whatever!"
Both her father Song Yuanshan and Song Xuan have become more open-minded about Song Qian's marriage.
A perfect grandmaster in his twenties is the first of his kind in this world since the beginning of history. Who can be worthy of such an existence?
As long as Victoria Song feels happy, the rest doesn’t matter.
The saw in Carpenter Song's hand made a squeaky sound, but he never stopped working as he talked.
Song Xuan watched for a long time, but he really didn't understand what she was going to do. He asked curiously, "You've been working on it for half the night. What kind of furniture do you want to make?"
"I'm going to make a fully automatic flying wheelchair!"
Song Xuan: “???”
Sometimes he feels that he is not a time traveler, but Victoria Song is.
His imagination could no longer keep up with Song Erni's train of thought.
"Sword flying is too common, not unique enough!"
Victoria Song said proudly, "Once my flying wheelchair is ready, when we fight, others will be riding on flying swords while I can just sit comfortably in my wheelchair and whizz through the world. Isn't that cool?"
Song Xuan was silent for a moment.
"If you want to attract attention, I think it would be more impressive if you made a coffin!"
When Song Qian heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up!
Chapter 500 Today, no one can stop me from twisting my mouth!
"coffin?"
Victoria Song blinked excitedly, "Brother, this is a great suggestion!"
As she spoke, she disappeared in a flash. When she reappeared, she was holding a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in her hands. Then, the girl lay on the table and began to design the drawings seriously.
"I want to make a coffin that can be used for both offense and defense."
"On weekdays, when I go out, I can stay in the coffin. Even if the sky collapses and the earth breaks, and time and space shatter, I will lie in the coffin and no one can do anything to me!"
She muttered, "Ordinary materials definitely won't work. I can try looking for thousand-year-old lightning-struck jujube wood. It has the property of warding off evil spirits and is more effective than peach wood.
If lightning-struck wood is not suitable, you can try meteorite iron from outer space. It is blessed with the power of the stars and is more suitable for traveling through the starry sky.
No, I have to find a few Taoist formation books to study later. It would be best if it is a formation that can form its own space. However, it seems that this kind of formation can only be mastered by celestial beings. I wonder if Taizu has any... "
Song Qian was talking to herself while drawing the blueprint quickly. After a while, she put down the pen.
Song Xuan took a curious look and his heart was shocked.
"Why is your coffin so covered with three layers? It doesn't look like a coffin, but more like a large war fortress."
"hey-hey!"
Song Qian said proudly: "The large coffin outside has various attack formations set up, which are specially used to crush all obstacles in front.
The coffins on the second layer are smaller, about the same size as a normal house. They are mainly used for defense and are the place for living.
As for the third layer, it is the size of a normal coffin. I plan to put more of the world's original power into it, so that I can lie in it to practice or sleep when I get bored during the journey.
Maybe when I wake up, I will find that I have become an immortal!"
Song Xuan stared at the blueprint in amazement, and subconsciously muttered to himself, "Three Generations Bronze Coffin?"
"The Three Generations Copper Coffin?"
Victoria Song murmured curiously, then narrowed her eyes like crescent moons and smiled happily, "Brother, the name you gave is still the best.
The past life, present life and future life, the three lives are gathered in one coffin, immortal and eternal!
What a good name!
I have decided that my natal magic weapon from now on will be a three-life bronze coffin!"
