    Volume 4 Chapter 45 Visiting the Duan Family

    What Tie Suxin said makes perfect sense.

    Although Liangzhou is not yet unified, the strength of the Cangnan Empire has definitely reached the point where it can sweep across the entire Liangzhou!  Otherwise, how could the ambitions of the Hu royal family extend to other states?

    No matter what plane it is, the matter of "chivalrous people breaking the law with force" is taboo for those in power.  The Yunxia Sect is a cultivating sect, and it has the privilege of transcending the secular world. Such a sect can naturally develop in Yuanzhou, Shazhou and other places where the imperial power is not obvious.  However, for a region like Liangzhou with a centralized empire, the Yunxia Sect was never welcomed by the officials.

    It can even be said that even if the Yunxia Sect wants to develop its own power, it must deliberately control its scale and not reach the level of official suspicion.  This is also the reason why Yunxia Sect can only become the largest sect in Izumo County, but its reputation is not prominent in other counties.  Because the Cangnan Empire will never allow the "biggest faction in Liangzhou" to appear!

    If we talk about force, the Yunxia Sect is indeed the strongest in Yunxia City!  However, if Kong Ming really turned against the Yunxia Sect, the Yunxia Sect would not dare to use all its strength to oppose Kong Ming.  The reason is simple, because Kong Ming has an official status, and he is a genuine Imperial Viscount.  If the Yunxia Sect really dares to touch Kong Ming, unless they are sure that they can withstand the pressure from the Hu royal family and the Kong family at the same time!

    How could the Yunxia Sect have such confidence and strength?

    ¡° Tiesuxin is worthy of being called a female think tank. She sees the situation very thoroughly, and the opponent she chooses is indeed the most suitable one!

    Kong Ming is good at strategizing, and he has everything under his control, no matter how big or small, but he doesn¡¯t want to engage in a one-spoken discussion, so he can bring everyone together to discuss major issues freely.  If someone can speak his mind, he will naturally smile, praise and help them perfect their ideas.  Even if he said something wrong, Kong Ming would not speak harshly, but would discuss it together and provide guidance.

    In short, after everyone discussed lively for more than an hour, they made preliminary plans for future development, and then they dispersed to rest.

    Early in the morning that day, Kong Ming led everyone, prepared gifts, and visited the Duan family together.

    The head of the Duan family holds the position of head of Yunxia City, and the Duan family is the well-deserved number one family in Yunxia City. When Kong Ming came to Yunxia City when he first came to Yunxia City, it was only natural that he would visit the Duan family as soon as possible!

    As the largest family in Yunxia City, the Duan family's mansion is naturally located in the east area of ??the city, and it is not far from Kong Ming's mansion. It only takes half a stick of incense to walk.  However, despite the great reputation of the Duan family, their mansion is not overbearing at all. Just looking at the gate of the Duan mansion, its size is at most about the same as that of an ordinary wealthy family. The luxurious mansion in the east of the city  When it's spread all over the place, it's really not outstanding.

    Of course, the Duan family has a large population and children. Even if the mansion does not look very luxurious, in terms of area, it is undoubtedly the largest in the east of the city. There are dozens of people living in it.  The family is at least seven generations old.  And when it comes to fiefdoms, no other force can compare with the Duan family, because at least 60% of the fertile land outside the city belongs to the Duan family.  If you compare Kongming's 500 households with the Duan family, there is simply the difference between an ant and an elephant!

    Kong Ming and his group entered the city yesterday after the curfew. Although there was no big commotion, how could the major forces in Yunxia City not receive the news immediately?

    When Kong Ming first came to Yunxia City, he immediately came to visit the Duan family. This shows that Kong Ming, an outsider, still knows the rules.  Of course, it was impossible for the Duan family to neglect Kong Ming. Except for the head of the family, Duan Kaiyu, who had not come out of seclusion, the other leading figures of the Duan family who were still in Yunxia City almost came out to greet Kong Ming. They seemed to be familiar with Kong Ming.

    Since Duan Kaiyu cannot come out of seclusion, the real person in charge of the Duan family is Duan Yuanyi, who exercises the power of city defense on Duan Kaiyu's behalf.

    Although Duan Yuanyi is just an ordinary person who cannot practice cultivation, and his seniority is not particularly high in the Duan family, he has a very high prestige in the family. When they came out to greet Kong Ming and his party, everyone in the Duan family was completely  Duan Yuanyi was the leader, and a group of people surrounded him in the middle. Even an elder who had reached the level of marshal did the same and did not dare to overstep in the slightest.

    A group of people from the Duan family greeted Kong Ming and others. After being polite to each other at the gate, they naturally welcomed Kong Ming and others into the living room to sit down.

    When Kong Ming presented the writing brush used by "Renjun" himself and the letter written by himself as gifts, everyone in the Duan family naturally did not dare to neglect and carefully took over the relics of their ancestors.

    It can be said that Kong Ming¡¯s gift is very effective. If the Duan family¡¯s previous politeness was out of face, then after Kong Ming presented the gift,?It evolved into a bit of real enthusiasm.

    The status of "Benevolent Lord" in the minds of the Duan family's children is not much different from that of gods. Kong Ming was able to send back two ancestral relics, so they naturally regarded Kong Ming as their friend and were grateful!  In this way, the topics discussed by both parties became much closer.

    Duan Yuanyi is a middle-aged alchemist who looks to be in his fifties. It can be said that he has a majestic appearance that makes people fall in love with him at first sight.  However, the smell of a scholar in him is a bit stronger, and coupled with the fact that he is an ordinary person who cannot practice cultivation, he seems a bit lacking in heroic spirit.

    After the topic was opened, Kong Ming stopped being polite in front of Duan Yuanyi and said directly: "Mr. Duan, this junior has come to Yunxia City for the first time. He still doesn't understand many rules and has many doubts in his heart. I just want to ask Mr. Duan for advice.  ¡±

    Duan Yuanyi said politely: "It's normal for Lord Kong to be a little unfamiliar with the local area for the first time. I wonder what Lord Kong wants to ask? Duan must have told you everything he knows!"

    Kong Ming cupped his hands and said: "Yesterday, I came a little late, and happened to encounter the city gates being closed and a curfew was implemented. This made me very puzzled. Is this the state of the border? Is it really so dangerous? Even if Yunxia City is not in a  On the front line, should we also implement a curfew to prevent accidents?¡±

    Duan Yuanyi sighed and said: "Master Kong didn't know something. The implementation of the curfew was really a scoundrel move. It's not that we in Yunxia City are timid. It's because the enemies coming from Shazhou this time are completely different from before.  We have to be extra careful and proceed with caution!¡±

    Kong Ming asked curiously: "Oh? I wonder how the enemies of Shazhou are different from before?"

    Whether it¡¯s a monthly vote, a recommendation vote, or any other vote, only everyone¡¯s vote and support is the motivation for me to keep updating my code!
