He Fu left Shouning Palace with a gloomy face.
The Empress of Da Qi was still sitting in the same place, not saying anything for a long time.
The palace was very big and cold.
She had heard that He Fu was involved in some Chamber of Commerce, but she didn't pay much attention to it at that time.
The news of the Jubao Merchants had been spreading like wildfire recently. She had just learned that He Fu was involved in this Chamber of Commerce.
He Fu kept saying that it wasn't easy for him to get a position as an honorary elder of the Jubao Merchants for his subordinates, but he didn't think about why Su She would want him. The Four Seas Merchant Alliance was closer to the royal family. The nine honorary deacons were more or less related to the royal family. This kind of transfer of benefits was not rare. As long as it wasn't too excessive, the Imperial Clan Court would turn a blind eye to it.
Su She was willing to give He Fu a lot of money because he was the uncle of the Crown Prince of Da Qi, and because of this identity, he could fight against the Four Seas Merchant Alliance. It wasn't because he was capable.
And this Chamber of Commerce was involved in the dethroning of the Crown Prince!
The Empress was actually very angry at first, but then she remembered that He Fu and his father had been dutiful for so many years. Thinking about it, she calmed down.
After all, they were the only family she had left.
She knew that her brother didn't have much ability or ambition. He had some fantasies in his early years, but they were gone. It was impossible for him to be involved in the dethroning of the Crown Prince.
He would definitely be investigated.
She also knew that the Emperor might not have any thoughts about the Jubao Merchants. No matter how much he hated the dethroned Crown Prince, he wouldn't have implicated him after so many years.
But …
She couldn't take any risks. Her son Jiang Wuhua, the Crown Prince, couldn't take any risks.
So no matter how wronged He Fu was, he could only suffer.
As long as Jiang Wuhua didn't ascend to the throne, she would still have to suffer, even if she was the Empress.
After thinking quietly for a while, the Empress ordered, "Follow the Emperor's Uncle to take a look. If he … You will give him a warning. "
She didn't say what the Emperor's Uncle would do, nor did she say what the "warning" was. She didn't need to say it in detail. The maid knew what she was doing.
The maid who had been waiting by her side bowed and left.
…
…
Recently, the most eye-catching matter in Linzi City was Cao Xing leaving the Jubao Merchants.
Even Uncle He's men didn't dare to touch the Jubao Merchants anymore!
Although it was the Empress's choice out of caution, in fact, it was seen by many people as the Emperor's attitude.
This was a sign that Jubao Merchants was about to collapse, and many people saw it as a clear sign that they were about to collapse.
If one were to say that Xu Fang's kneeling outside the Bluestone Palace had only crippled the Gathering Treasures Chamber of Commerce, preventing them from escaping far away or resisting.
This time, the artificial "consensus" had almost completely torn down the protective umbrella of the Treasure Gathering Chamber of Commerce.
On the contrary, the previous incident with the Jubao Merchants had become a rehearsal. This time, it had truly reached its peak.
Everyone felt that the Jubao Merchants were finished, and no one held back anymore.
The entire Linzi City was surging with winds and clouds, and all sorts of evil characters were taking the stage …
But these had nothing to do with Jiang Wang for the time being.
This was because he was ready to leave and participate in this Seven Star Tower gathering.
In Linzi City, there weren't many things that he could do now. He could do almost everything at the age of 14.
What was more hurtful was that Zhong Xuan Sheng didn't really need his opinion in terms of wisdom and strategy.
In terms of martial arts, he wasn't confident that he could defeat Wang Yiwu.
He was very clear that he was far from reaching the limit of the Soaring Dragon Realm.
He had to make up for his lifespan and make up for his regrets. Only then would he have the qualifications to confront Wang Yiwu, who was known as the strongest man in the same realm.
Therefore, the Seven Star Tower was imperative.
…
Although he was very busy, Chung Geng Sheng still took time to arrange a farewell.
Of course, the scale was very small. He only invited Xu Xiangqian, Li Longchuan, Yan Fu, and Gao Zhe. They were all familiar with Jiang Wang. At the very least, they were fair-weather friends.
On the one hand, he gathered them to see Jiang Wang off.
On the other hand, Jiang Wang had made friends for Chung Geng Sheng some time ago. Now that he was leaving Linzi, he naturally had to "hand over" the relationship he handled and help Chung Geng Sheng consolidate their friendship. In fact, it was better than nothing.
Everyone was well aware of this and became familiar with each other without leaving a trace.
Jiang Wang really wasn't good at making friends. Zhongxuan Sheng had been in the limelight recently. Now that he had a representative who was good at dancing, even if it wasn't a full house, it would at least be lively.
But now, there were only three or four people.
Among them, Xu Xiangqian knew Li Longchuan when he was in You Country. Li Longchuan was also arranged by Zhong Xuansheng to deliver the Qiushan Bow. Yan Fu and Zhong Xuansheng had been in contact before.
As for Gao Zhe, Junggenjia had been cooperating with the Gao family recently. Gao Shaoling was still the governor of Red Tail Commandery, so the two sides had a close relationship.
The results of "making friends" were almost zero …
Fortunately, Chung Geng Sheng himself didn't have high expectations for this. The main thing was to let Jiang Wang make friends outside and improve Chung Geng Sheng's sense of existence. The other things were just a matter of time.
It was not appropriate to drink wine on a long journey, so everyone just sat together and drank tea, ate some pastries, and chatted for a while.
As they were chatting, a waiter suddenly came to report that a deacon of the Four Seas Business Alliance had come.
In view of the current cooperative relationship between the two sides, Chung Geng Sheng certainly wouldn't neglect.
So he invited the messenger in.
As soon as he came in, he saluted everyone present. "Greetings, third-class deacon of the Four Seas Business Alliance. My surname is Yang, Muyi Yang."
He probably knew that he wouldn't be remembered even if he said his name, so he only said his surname.
He was a smooth person. Before Chung Geng Sheng and the others asked, he went straight to the point and said directly to Jiang Wang, "Our chief has always appreciated the men of Qingyang Town very much. He personally said that you are a rare talent of the young generation of Da Qi. He heard that Prince Jiang would be participating in the meeting of the Seven Stars Tower this time. He was very concerned about you and specially asked me to send some medicine as a token of my humble effort. "
Since Deacon Yang was here on behalf of Qing Xi, then every word he said must have been approved by Qing Xi.
The weight of these words couldn't be underestimated.
Especially when Qing Xi, as the chief of the Business Alliance, personally said that Jiang Wang was "a rare talent of the young generation of Da Qi". Such words couldn't be taken lightly. They could help Jiang Wang to a greater extent to gain the recognition of the people of Da Qi. It was very important to let the people of Qi recognize Jiang Wang as one of their own … to have a good development in Qi.
In fact, Chung Geng Sheng previously asked Jiang Wang to be his representative to make friends everywhere because of this.
Qing Xi was indeed very sincere. Before this, Jiang Wang didn't have much contact with him. They only met once in the villa of Mount Xia.
Deacon Yang took out a jade box and gently removed the jade lid. There were small compartments inside. Various jade bottles could be seen neatly placed in the compartments.
"There are Muscle Revitalization Powder and Blood Recovery Pills in here …"
Muscle Revitalization Powder was used to treat external injuries. Blood Recovery Pills were used to replenish blood and Qi. The medicine sent by Qing Xi were all of the best quality. They were quite good supplies for battle.
Deacon Yang introduced them one by one.
Chung Geng Sheng and the Business Alliance of the Four Seas had a cooperative relationship. Both sides had also cooperated to open a new business. Jiang Wang definitely couldn't refuse Qing Xi's kindness.
"Mr. Qing, I can't refuse your kindness. Please send my regards. When I return to the city, I will definitely visit you to express my gratitude." Jiang Wang took the jade box with both hands.
"I will definitely send your regards." Deacon Yang took out a small booklet. "In addition, here is a set of information about the Seven Stars Tower. It records the past few participation experiences of the Seven Stars Tower. Perhaps it will be of some help to Prince Jiang. It was also prepared by Mr. Qing's order. "
Jiang Wang and Chung Geng Sheng looked at each other. For a junior like him, although Qing Xi could be said to think highly of him, he was a little too enthusiastic.
Although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. He only thanked Qing Xi and said that he would read it carefully.
"Then I wish Qingyang Town's Prince Consort success. Please enjoy yourselves. I will take my leave first."
As the saying goes, those who show courtesy to others must have a request. Everyone was waiting for Qing Xi to continue, but they didn't expect Deacon Yang to just cup his hands and leave.
It seemed like it was really just an elder thinking highly of a junior.
