[Ahem, I've been away from home for the past few days, and I haven't had the time to write. If I don't explode, then I'll be embarrassed to ask for votes … Alas, I've been watching the double monthly votes slip by day by day, and my ranking has been slipping day by day … My brothers are burning with impatience. I've returned home today, so I've exploded today! I want to make up for the losses of the past few days, wa ha ha … Everyone can cast your monthly votes without worry! Tonight, before midnight, four o 'clock! >
[Could it be that the Dugu family is so anxious to find me in order to discuss my marriage with Dugu Xiaoyi?] This was the only possibility that Jun Moxie could think of. [How would I face this marriage if it's really for this reason?]
The words on the invitation card were very concise and to the point. There was only one sentence in total: The Jun Family's Mo Xie is invited to the Dugu Residence for a meeting. The signature was unexpectedly: Dugu Zongheng awaits quietly.
The handwriting was very rough, and almost ugly. But the strokes of the writing were full of hostility, bold and uninhibited. It was written by Dugu Zongheng himself.
This was an unusually simple invitation card, but it showed the importance and anger of the Dugu Family towards this meeting!
Old Man Dugu Zongheng had personally signed his name. This had clearly explained this point. But the wording was short, and it went straight to the heart of the matter. It was obvious that the Dugu Family was extremely reluctant and helpless towards this meeting.
Dashao secretly thought, [Could it be that the Dugu family wants to establish the little girl's status in addition to discussing the marriage between me and the little girl?] After all, the little girl had returned home in public with a big belly. This wasn't a joke, but anyone who was observant would be able to see through the strangeness of this matter. How could she have such a big belly when she was only two or three months old?] But no matter what the truth was, the little girl's reputation and integrity were certainly ruined. And this was something that Jun Moxie was quite touched by.
The Jun Family and the Dugu Family were well-matched in terms of social status. In fact, they were a perfect match for each other. However, the Dugu Family would never allow their only granddaughter to become someone else's concubine. Even if they were well aware that the little girl was still a virgin, and that the Young Master Jun's only woman was Guan Qing Han, they wouldn't care about this.
Establishing the little girl's status as the first wife was very important. To put it bluntly, although Guan Qing Han had saved Dashao with her chastity, she was still Dashao's sister-in-law. Even if Dashao were to marry her, Guan Qing Han's delicate status would not allow her to become Jun Moxie's first wife. The little girl had always been on good terms with Guan Qing Han. If the little girl became the first wife, and Guan Qing Han became the concubine, it would be a good thing for everyone!
Jun Moxie frowned. [This should be the reason why the Dugu family is so anxious to find me, right?
But no matter what, Dugu Zongheng seems to be looking for the wrong person. He should be looking for Jun Zhantian, not Jun Moxie! After all, Jun Zhantian is the head of the Jun Family. Especially when it comes to the marriage of a descendant, Grandpa Jun should be the one to personally take care of it.
Moreover, Jun Moxie is not someone that Dugu Zongheng can face directly.
His level is not high enough.
Even if Dashao is in the limelight and has a rampant battle record, his level is still not high enough!
This has nothing to do with one's strength. This is the level of worldly wisdom. Dashao may be a person of two lives, but he is still a young boy when it comes to worldly wisdom. He is not an expert in this kind of life event!
Jun Moxie held the invitation card, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
When Jun Zhantian found out about this, he curled his lips and said disdainfully, "Little grandson, what's so strange about this? It's probably because that old man Dugu Zongheng was roared at by his family's tigress. That's why he has no choice but to do this. I reckon that his family's tigress wants to see you in person. And, that old man Dugu Zongheng doesn't dare to refuse you. So, he invites you, but you're unwilling … That's it … I've always seen you as daring as the heavens. But, how come you're so timid today? Well, get out of here. Don't disturb this old man's cultivation!
It must be said that Grandpa Jun and Dugu Zongheng had known each other for a lifetime. So, they had a thorough understanding of each other. It only took him a moment to deduce the truth of this matter.
This speculation was not only close to the truth, it was completely consistent with the truth!
The old man's last sentence mercilessly drove out his paranoid grandson. He then continued to meditate and meditate on the 'Great Way'. It was rare to have such an opportunity to make a breakthrough. How could he not stabilize his realm in the shortest time possible?
Jun Moxie smiled bitterly. Suddenly, he noticed a thick stack of papers on Grandpa Jun's desk. They were all folded and unfolded. It was obvious that these were all secret reports sent by eagles.
The topmost one read: The County Magistrate of Qingshui County of the Western Capital was killed in his home. It is suspected that he was killed by the assassin 'Liu Yun'. The killer only left behind a poem: Good and evil will always be rewarded, justice cannot be allowed to fall. If you want to find the killer, ask Liu Yun …
Jun Zhantian's reply was —
Quickly investigate!
The next piece of information was the same. Jun Moxie counted and found that there were exactly fifty of them! Not one more, not one less. It was exactly the information on the fifty people that Baili Luo Yun had killed!
Jun Mo Xie couldn't help but sigh. Such an efficient intelligence system was so outstanding that it left one speechless! Baili Luo Yun had only just arrived in Tian Xiang, but everything he had done had already been gathered here. Moreover, it seemed like Grandpa Jun had already read through it. This meant that this intelligence had arrived even earlier than Baili Luo Yun!
It was a pity that although these intelligence agencies were under the direct control of the Jun Family, their true master was the Tian Xiang Empire and not the Jun Family's own power. If there was a day when the relationship between the Jun Family and the Tian Xiang Empire was broken, these intelligence agencies would not be of any use.
Jun Mo Xie frowned. He put the note back in its original place, and slowly walked out. As soon as he came out, he saw the guards at the gate rushing over. Behind them was a grotesquely shaped Big Fatty.
Jun Moxie was shocked. He could barely recognize that this person was Tang Yuan … It had only been three months, and this brother had actually put on weight again! Moreover, it wasn't just a little bit; he had put on a lot of weight.
Tang Yuan had originally been a circle. But now, he had turned into a triangle! His huge head was impressively pointed at the top of his head. Then, it spread down to both sides …
"Third Young Master …" Tang Yuan became excited as soon as he saw Jun Moxie. He excitedly threw himself at him, gasping for breath as he tried to give him a bear hug!
"Stop!" Jun Moxie was startled. "What happened to you? How did you gain so much weight? " He looked him up and down. Then, he frowned. "I could clearly see your calves before. But now, I can't even see your feet …"
"Ahem, don't mention it!" Tang Yuan looked like he couldn't bear to look back. "Brother, it's been tough these days. I've been forced to lose weight …"
"What?! Forced to lose weight?! " Jun Moxie finally cried out in surprise. "Forced to lose weight actually reduced you from three hundred pounds to four hundred pounds?"
"Wrong!" Tang Yuan sternly pointed out Jun Moxie's mistake. "If it was four hundred pounds, perhaps I wouldn't be so depressed. This time, it was from three hundred and sixty pounds. Now, it's five hundred and twenty-four pounds!"
"I … f * ck!" Jun Moxie's mouth was agape. After a long time, he cried out, "From three hundred and sixty pounds to five hundred and twenty-four pounds in three months … a full one hundred and sixty pounds! Damn it, even if I fed hormones to pigs, they wouldn't be able to gain so much weight in three months … "
"Feed pigs?" Tang Yuan said unhappily. "I have a special reason for this."
"What special reason? Could it be … "Jun Moxie blinked. It had to be said that the word 'fat' couldn't be used to describe Fatty Tang's current physique. It should be called 'terrifying'!
"Sun Xiaomei has been forcing me to lose weight every day …" Tang Yuan wanted to cry, but had no tears, "Every morning, she would take a whip and wake me up to run. Every day, she would make me go out to exercise. Nobody in the family is on my side. Everyone is rushing to cooperate with that woman. Why is my life so bitter? Even in the Aristocratic Hall, there are people following and supervising me …"
"I still don't understand. It's a very normal and effective way to lose weight. Why are you doing it?" Jun Moxie was even more puzzled.
"Big Brother, I do exercise. But, I get hungry afterward! I'm very hungry! "Tang Yuan gritted his teeth and shouted," I get hungry every time I exercise! I used to eat three meals a day before I lost weight. I could eat six steamed buns per meal. But now, I have to eat nine meals a day! I have to eat ten steamed buns per meal … and that's not counting supper … "
Jun Moxie's body swayed, and he almost fell down. His face was full of black lines. [What kind of person is this? The legendary Envoy of the Pure Altar doesn't seem to be like this, right?]
"Indeed … there's a reason to be fat!" Jun Moxie nodded repeatedly. He had a look of amazement on his face, "No wonder such a big miracle happened in these three short months … there's a reason for it. It's such a powerful reason. It would be strange if you don't get fat."
"That's right!" Tang Yuan sighed and stroked his belly, "I used to be able to carry my own belly. But, I can't carry it anymore …"
"It seems that you still need to exercise further …" Jun Moxie sighed.
"I still need to exercise? If I were to continue training, I would have broken through 600 Jin … "Tang Yuan unhappily rolled his eyes, but then became excited again." However, Third Young Master, we have truly created a miracle. In these past three months, every single one of your pills has been auctioned for a sky-high price! Moreover, the current record is still being broken. Now, the few bottles of medicine that you left for me before you left have already turned into nine hundred million shining silver taels. Moreover, this money belongs to the Aristocratic Hall. The Young Prince's share isn't included. He's already given away his share … "
"What? Nine hundred million! Nine hundred million? " Jun Moxie was thoroughly shocked by this huge number. Dashao wasn't someone who hadn't seen money before. He had known that those pills would be very popular in this world. But, he hadn't expected that they would be so popular.
[I can refine eight or ten bottles of those pills at any time. So, I can make hundreds of millions of silver taels with just a flick of my finger?] [Isn't this world too crazy? Is it so exaggerated?]
