PS: The sixth alliance leader has been born. Alliance leader Moon Fairy's Crystal Castle!
"Stop —!" Leng Tao roared.
Chu Li and the others ignored him and ran away.
"Go after him!" Leng Tao put down his hand and shouted, "Catch up to him! Kill him! "
"Master!" A middle-aged man shouted.
Leng Tao turned his head and glared at him as if he wanted to eat him alive.
The middle-aged man whispered, "Master, let it go!"
"Let it go?!" Leng Tao widened his eyes in disbelief and shouted, "I was hit by him and you're telling me to let it go?!"
Another middle-aged man looked at him in confusion, "Elder Zhang, what happened?"
Elder Zhang sighed and whispered, "Master, Elder Huang, if I'm not mistaken, that guy is Chu Li, the Head Chief of the Imperial Residence of King An, rank one!"
"It can't be," Elder Huang cried out, "Chu Li is so young?"
Although he heard that Chu Li was a young talent, he did not expect him to be this young. A rank one young talent would have to be at least thirty years old.
"Head Chief Chu, he's famous in the Fairy's Capital. He's a famous young talent. To be able to reach Rank-1 at such a young age, no one can compare to him!" Old Zhang whispered, "Do you think we can do anything to him?"
He looked at Leng Tao sympathetically, "Master, don't stoop to his level!"
"Bullsh * t!" Leng Tao was unconvinced, "So what if he's rank one? I'm a prince!"
Elder Zhang and Elder Huang were silent.
In other countries, princes and princes may have a higher status than chancellors, but it was different in the Great Ji Dynasty.
Before ascending the throne, the princes were no different from the chancellors. Monarch, minister, father and son, they were first the chancellors, then the emperor's son.
The Royal Highness was just a title. He received a higher salary as a father's sympathy for his son. Other than that, he did not have any real power. If he wanted power, he could only enter the court and become an official. There was no shortcut to starting from the official position and rank.
These princes only had one advantage, which was their potential to inherit the throne.
A prince who had no hope of inheriting the throne was no different from an ordinary minister. In fact, he was even worse than an ordinary minister.
Once he suppressed his brothers and ascended the throne, the emperor wouldn't help these brothers much. Instead, he would be on guard against them, afraid that they would get too big and mess up the court.
Among the princes, the merits and demerits were obvious. King Jing had the most support, so the other princes were not in a good position. The chancellors would not be too lenient with them and would not let go of any opportunity to impeach them.
Leng Tao stomped his feet and pointed at the sky as he cursed, "The Great Ancestor's way of thinking is so strange. How dare he let these people from the High Duke's Public Houses be so arrogant and lawless!"
Old Zhang and Old Huang hurriedly waved their hands, "Young Master! Young master! Be careful with your words! "
"Be careful my ass!" Leng Tao was unconvinced and shouted, "Am I wrong? Based on what? Based on what? The Twelve High Dukes are transcendent-rank, and my father is only Rank-4. Who's the real son here? "
Old Zhang and Old Huang watched as Chu Li and the others slowly walked away and gradually sighed in relief. They were happy to argue with Leng Tao and divert his attention so that he would not be able to catch up with them.
"Young master, you can't say that. After all, the people from the High Duke's Public Houses have worked hard. Just look at the assassination attempt by Princess Siao when she first entered the Imperial Residence of King An. Many martial arts masters want her life. The High Duke's Public Houses have offended many martial arts masters!" Old Zhang said in a low voice.
Old Huang also hurriedly said, "That's right, those martial arts masters are all very hot-blooded. Their martial arts are strong, and they don't care about their lives. They're like lunatics. As High Dukes, they have to live in fear every day. It's even harder than the generals fighting at the frontier … The generals still have time to rest. They can completely relax. After a battle, they can either be transferred to other places to enjoy their lives or return to Fairy's Capital to enjoy their lives. As for the High Dukes, they have to be on guard at all times. They don't know when a top-notch martial arts master will jump out and assassinate them. What's worse is that these martial arts masters don't have what they say about not involving their families. Which of the Young Masters and Young Ladies of the High Duke's Public Houses have not been assassinated before?"
"Moreover, the High Dukes also had outstanding military achievements. Together, they conquered the Great Ji Dynasty. Not only can their descendants not enjoy their lives, but they also have to suffer. The transcendent-rank is also the Great Ancestor's compensation to the High Duke's Public Houses." Old Zhang sighed, "The hearts of the Chancellors are also made of flesh. They all know that the High Duke's Public Houses are not easy."
"Then let's not talk about the High Dukes. Let's talk about Chu Li!" Leng Tao scoffed and said unwillingly, "He's so young and he's already a rank one. How old is my father? He's only been promoted to rank four. I don't even know if he'll be promoted to rank one in this lifetime. This is too much!"
"Well …" Old Zhang and Old Huang looked at each other and did not say anything.
Leng Tao smirked, "You have nothing to say now, right?"
Old Zhang sighed, "Master, the Eldest Master of the Yi Public House has a good reputation. He's open, fair, and strict. He will never be biased. Since Chu Li can be promoted to rank one, he must have accumulated enough merits. He's a Scribe, not a Protector. He needs to rely on merits to be promoted."
"How many merits does it take to be promoted to rank one?" Leng Tao scoffed in disdain, "I've never even heard of it!"
Old Huang looked to his left and right. Coincidentally, there was no one passing by. He lowered his voice and said, "The Ren Public House has always been against the Yi Public House. Lu Yu Rong's methods are amazing … In the end, she suffered a few losses in Chu Li's hands! "
"Lu Yu Rong?" Leng Tao's expression changed slightly.
He looked to his left and right and scoffed, "Don't mention this b * tch!"
Old Zhang and Old Huang looked at each other and laughed in their hearts.
If Lu Yu Rong was here and Master still dared to call her that, then they would admire Master's courage and boldness!
Leng Tao gritted his teeth and scoffed, "I don't care. Since Chu Li dared to slap me, I must avenge him!"
"When Old Chen comes, we'll teach him a lesson!" Old Huang quickly said.
Leng Tao glared at the two of them, "You two old things, you're so cunning!"
Old Zhang and Old Huang laughed, "Master, to be honest, we're no match for Chu Li. Only if Old Chen comes will we have a chance."
"You guys can't be counted on. We can only rely on Old Chen!" Leng Tao scoffed and turned to look at the town gate.
Another group of people came from the town gate. There were more than ten horses.
There were three horses in the lead.
In the middle was a purplish-red steed, on which sat a beautiful middle-aged woman who still retained her charm. Beside her were two stunning beauties of the prime of their youth. One was amorous and spirited, while the other was pure and innocent with a pair of quick-witted eyes.
Leng Tao quickly lowered his head and shrunk his shoulders to hide beside the horse. He cursed his bad luck.
"Aren't they from the Cheng Wang Family?" The middle-aged woman chuckled and looked at Leng Tao who was shrunk his head and shoulders, trying to hide himself.
Leng Tao's fat body could not be hidden by the horse. Instead, it attracted more attention and could be seen from afar.
Leng Tao helplessly closed fist saluted and his fat face was full of smiles, "Fifth aunt."
He dared to be rude to Princess An but he dared not to be rude to this Princess. The smile on his face was sincere and intimate.
"No need to be so polite. Young Tao, why did you stop here?" The middle-aged woman chuckled and waved her hand, "What happened to your face? Did your father hit you again? "
