    The Duan family is a well-known scholarly family in the imperial capital. They have never had any friendship with military generals, but this time they suddenly got married to the Cao family. There must be many stories in it. Kong Yingjie left the imperial capital for several months, so naturally he couldn't.  Knowing the inside story, it¡¯s hard to comment on the marriage between the Cao and Duan families.

    But no matter what, the Cao family must have had great benefits in this marriage, and it probably also cost a lot. This can also be regarded as a signal that the Cao family is launching an attack on the civil servants.

    It seems that the Cao family is no longer satisfied with just having a say in the military, but wants to further expand their power.

    The Kong family can understand this approach, because although the foundation of the Kong family is on the side of civil servants, the Kong family has been secretly sending power to the military. Except for Wulong County, the fiefdom of the Cao family, the military in various places already has Kong.  The children of the Confucius family are just not in high positions, and there has not yet been a big warlord with an army. Of course, in addition to the children of the Confucius family infiltrating into the army, making friends with warlords and nobles from all over the country will also increase the number of Confucius.  For example, the Fang family in Huayu City is a powerful ally of the Kong family in the military.

    However, if the Cao family does not complain, it is very surprising. When it does, it is extremely surprising that they are directly married to the Duan family. You must know the status of the Duan family in the Cangnan Empire. It is a first-class wealthy family. With its influence in the civil servant group,  Second only to the Kong family

    If we say that most of the students in the world come from the schools held by the Confucius family in various places, then it can be said that most of the officials at all levels after entering the officialdom are disciples of the Duan family.

    Because in the Cangnan Empire, the position of Prime Minister was basically held by members of the Kong family, but the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs has always been controlled by the Duan family. Especially in the past hundred years, the Duan family has produced "seven ministers from one family".  , the story of "Father and Son, Three Ministers"

    If the Cao family really joins forces with the Duan family, their influence in the Cangnan Empire will be very far-reaching, and it may even affect the branches of power in the empire. If it is said that all this is done by the Cao family quietly, then the Cao family will  The family's methods are really commendable because the Cao family's move is equivalent to driving a nail into the imperial capital, allowing the Cao family's power to truly gain a foothold in the imperial capital.

    According to common sense, neither the Kong family nor the Hu royal family would watch the marriage of Kong and Cao, but would secretly exert some pressure. But this time the Cao family sent the dowry with such fanfare, it was natural that  Said that the matter has been finalized. Even if the Kong family and the Hu royal family are dissatisfied with this matter, they can only send blessings on the surface.

    Now, when the Cao family's dowry convoy appears in the imperial capital, it also sends a signal to all parties that the Cao family and the Duan family have become in-laws. The distribution of forces in the imperial capital may have to be re-divided.

    When Kong Yingjie thought of this, he felt a little impatient. He couldn't wait to return home immediately to find out what happened in the imperial capital in recent months. However, he didn't know whether the Cao family was deliberately showing off their power or whether they wanted to transport it.  There were so many things that it took me a long time to wait. There was still a queue in front of the teleportation array.

    Kong Yingjie felt unhappy and couldn't help but stamp his foot and said bitterly: "The people of the Cao family are really hateful. They are obviously stalling for time."

    Kong Ming said calmly at this time: "Uncle Jie, no matter how noisy the Cao family is, in this imperial capital, do they have as deep a foundation as our Kong family? Besides, can Emperor Hu sit firmly on the throne of the Cangnan Empire?"  , the emperors of all dynasties were all talented and strategic people, how could they let the Cao family do whatever they want? I think we can rest assured that the emperor will not change because of the Cao family. As long as we return home, someone will tell us the cause and effect.  It¡¯s useless for us to be anxious now.¡±

    Kong Yingjie is not an ordinary person. After hearing what Kong Ming said, he immediately calmed down and nodded: "Our Kong family and Cao family have been fighting for hundreds of years. The Cao family wants to overpower our Kong family, but that's not true."  Such an easy thing¡±

    Next, Kong Yingjie and Kong Ming just closed their eyes and meditated calmly, waiting for the Cao family¡¯s motorcade to transport their dowries.

    Almost half an hour later, the Cao family's motorcade finally finished transporting their things, and the passage in front was empty. Cao Chengping and Cao Chengwei did not come over to greet Kong Yingjie, but escorted the motorcade directly. In fact, with Kong  The relationship between the Cao family and the Cao family can be said to be inseparable. Although the "Cao family five tigers" are as famous as the "Kong family five elders", they have no friendship with each other. Instead, they are quite hostile to the previous relationship between Cao Chengping and Cao Chengwei.  Kong Yingjie's "greetings" were just imagining the marriage of the Cao and Duan families to hit Kong Yingjie. Now that the goal has been achieved, what else can they say to Kong Yingjie?  Naturally, he walked away

    In the eyes of the Cao brothers, being able to let the Kong family eat dirt behind their motorcade can be regarded as a victory over the Kong family.

    Kong Yingjie had no intention of getting into trouble with the Cao brothers at this time, and ordered the driver to drive directlyThe carriage boarded the small teleportation array and prepared to rush back to the Kong family as quickly as possible. In addition to the important things he had to report, the imperial capital was also a troubled place during this period, so naturally he wanted to understand the relevant situation.

    When the carriage comes out of the teleportation array, you can see a huge palace, which is very luxuriously decorated. It is called the guest house. People who come out of the VIP passage will receive extremely high standards of reception in this guest house.  As brothers Cao Chengping and Cao Chengwei, they will definitely set aside a separate area in this guest house specifically for the use of the Cao family.

    As for Kong Yingjie and others, representing the Kong family in the imperial capital, they naturally did not need to stay in the guest house. Instead, they changed to a carriage and rushed towards the manor where the Kong family was located.

    The size of Biluo City, the imperial capital of the Cangnan Empire, can be said to be beyond the imagination of ordinary people. If ordinary people rode a carriage and rushed for a day and night, they would not be able to get from the east of the city to the west of the city.

    Kong Yingjie once introduced to Kong Ming that Biluo City is so big that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an independent country. In fact, this is also true because it is difficult for ordinary people to imagine that in the center of Biluo City, there is actually a majestic and majestic country.  mountains

    The palace of the Cangnan Empire is built on the mountain range, and the entire mountain range is also the private land of the Hu royal family. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. It is no longer possible to verify what the mountain range was called in the past.  After the founding of the Cangnan Empire more than a hundred years ago, this mountain range was called Emperor Mountain and was the symbol of the imperial power of the Cangnan Empire.

    Surrounding the Imperial Mountain, Biluo City is divided into nine areas. The Imperial Mountain protects these nine areas. Each area can be regarded as an independent city, and its scale is not much smaller than that of Huayu City.

    These nine areas can be regarded as the nine sub-cities of Biluo City, the imperial capital, and each has its own main function, such as the Imperial Military District, which is mainly used to garrison troops, the Chuanliu District, which has the most developed commerce, and the Changyang District, which has very complex tastes.

    There is one area, called Chongwen District, which is considered the most unique area among the nine districts of the imperial capital because this area is a fiefdom belonging to the Kong family and is privately owned by the Kong family. Just like the Royal Imperial Mountain, outsiders cannot do it casually.  got inside

    If Biluo City can be said to be a country of its own, then Dishan of the Hu royal family and Chongwen District of the Kong family can be regarded as two smaller countries in China.

    Coming out of the Guest House is Antai District, where various dignitaries in the city live. It is adjacent to Chongwen District. Even though they are two adjacent districts in the same city, it still takes at least two kilometers to take a carriage.  It takes hours to reach across regions

    Based on this alone, we know how huge the imperial capital Biluo City is.

    Kong Ming and others sat on the carriage and looked at the scenery of Antai District along the way. Since this area is full of dignitaries and wealthy people in the city, all they saw along the way were high-ranking families, and one family was often enough.  occupied a street

    Ten of the civil and military officials working in the imperial capital lived here, and some wealthy families also mostly moved to this area in order to raise their own status. Therefore, the wealth of this area is completely different from other areas.  People in the Imperial City once joked that making money in Chuanliu District and then living in Antai District would be the biggest dream of most people in the Imperial City.

    When flying through Antai District, Kong Ming also looked up at Mount Di in the distance

    The highest peak of Emperor Mountain is called Emperor Peak. It is said to be more than 3,000 meters high. The emperors of the Cangnan Empire were buried on Emperor Peak, allowing them to overlook the empire that once belonged to them forever.

    It's a pity that this place is too far away from Mount Di. From a distance, you can only see clouds and mist, and you can't see the whole of Mount Di. However, you can vaguely see many red walls and yellow tiles exposed high on the mountain. Obviously, there are many  It seems that after hundreds of years of development, the Hu royal family has made Dishan quite prosperous. I'm afraid that the landforms on Dishan are completely different from the mountain cities in ordinary people's impressions.

    Under Kong Yingjie¡¯s constant urging, the driver drove the carriage very quickly. It only took a little more than an hour to rush from Antai District to Chongwen District, where Kong¡¯s family is located.

    At the junction of Chongwen District and Antai District, there is a huge archway. The distance between the two archway pillars is extremely wide. Even if five or six carriages can pass through at the same time, it will not be particularly crowded.

    ????????????????? On the archway, there are eight vigorous Chinese characters inscribed with flying dragons and phoenixes: "Civil officials dismount their sedan chairs, and military generals dismount their horses."
