Chapter 342
"His Royal Highness the Son of God and the three His Majesties are here in person, the humble house is really full of splendor."

Grand Duke You Ming, who had been waiting for a long time, saw a few people coming, and quickly stood up to greet them.

Zhu Meilin, this is the name of Grand Duke You Ming.

At the same time, he is also a Contra-level soul master.

The Zhu family does not have a titled Douluo-level powerhouse, and he is already one of the oldest members of the entire family.

From the outside, it was hard for Xia Ling to imagine that this was the patriarch who ruled over the entire Nether family.

A dexterous and thin figure, a childlike appearance with white hair, and a kind smile.

Instead, it gives people the feeling of being a neighbor.

The three Super Douluo did not overwhelm the host, they were all one step behind Xia Ling and Zhu Zhuqing.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, I have heard of the great reputation of Grand Duke Youming for a long time, and I have admired him for a long time."

Xia Ling let go of Zhu Zhuqing's hand and bowed back.

The three Douluo nodded lightly, even if they had seen each other.

With the cultivation bases of the few of them, it is reasonable to do nothing.

Now being able to nod to Grand Duke You Ming is already a great deal of face.

"Everyone, please come inside. Lan Xing, why don't you show tea to all the honored guests?"

Grand Duke Nether greeted hurriedly.

There is no arrogance of being a hereditary duke or a Contra powerhouse.

The posture is very low.

"The Grand Duke is too polite, there is no need to be polite."

After the two parties were seated, Xia Ling went straight to the point.

"I took the liberty to come here this time because of my marriage with Zhuqing."

Just as he was talking, Xia Ling took Zhu Zhuqing's hand.

Between the ten fingers intertwined, the two dragon and phoenix heaven and earth rings complement each other.

Blooming an indescribable aura.

"Zhuqing and I have long been in love with each other and have devoted our lives to each other. I wonder if the Grand Duke can be invited to break the engagement between Zhuqing and the Dai family?"

"of course can."

Zhu Meilin agreed very simply, and nodded with a smile.

Being mature and mature, he delivered a flattery in a timely manner.

"The old man has heard a little about His Highness Shengzi's act of showing love in the Wuhun Arena before, and I believe you are sincere. It is an honor for our Zhu family to marry Zhuqing to His Highness Shengzi."

"But, this"

Having said this, Zhu Meilin paused, hesitating slightly.

Then the topic changed.

"This marriage contract, the old man is happy to fulfill His Highness here. But it may be difficult for the Dai family. I heard that the boy named Dai Mubai from the Dai family is a latecomer, and the emperor intends to choose him as the Xingluo crown prince."

"If the eldest prince Davis still has the upper hand, this matter will be much easier to handle."

Zhu Meilin let out a long sigh.

The image of an elder who cares about the younger generation and works hard is vividly interpreted.

"Then according to what the Grand Duke said, what should be done at this time?"

Xia Ling didn't puncture his thoughts, and continued to ask along the way.

Zhu Meilin stroked his beard, and said with a little distress: "At this time, I am afraid that His Highness still needs to go to discuss with the emperor in person, and this old man can't make the decision."

Okay, Grand Duke Youming, no wonder there was a burst of compliments when he came up earlier.

Waiting for me here?

Chunchun tricked me into being a fool, this is it.

They are all millennium-old foxes, what are you talking about with me?

If Xia Ling was really just a 14-year-old boy, he might be deceived by his appearance.

If you stir up conflicts between Wuhundian and Dai's family, your Zhu family would like to pick up a ready-made bargain.

Want to prostitute the support of Wuhundian for free but don't want to pay much substantive things?

How can there be such a good thing?

"Only relying on the current three melons and two dates of the Baihu family, can you decide Zhuqing's marriage contract with full authority? Grand Duke, you are not authentic."

Xia Ling sneered, and answered him indifferently.

Zhu Meilin was very calm, her kind face remained unchanged.

Still smiling, he replied: "His Royal Highness, you are joking. The Dai and Zhu families have always been dominated by the Dai family. Why don't you say it honestly? A skinny camel is bigger than a horse! They are the Xingluo royal family. We The Zhu family is no match for their Dai family."

Immediately afterwards, the two had a heated discussion on the matter again.

No one would let go after a lot of verbal confrontation.

The core argument of this matter is no longer a simple marriage contract issue.

Instead, it involves the political game and team issues of the two top powers.

Old fox!
Little Fox!
After a long time, the two cursed each other secretly in their hearts at the same time.

Grand Duke You Ming wanted to break away from the Dai family's control, but he didn't want to be the leader, and he didn't want to break with the Dai family right now.

Xia Ling wanted to increase the difficulty of the game for the Star Luo Empire, or Dai Mubai, but he didn't want to tear the face of the Star Luo Empire right now.

Before a certain degree of industrialization is completed, Xia Ling does not want to face the war between the two empires at the same time so quickly.

Once the war starts, the birth of many things will be delayed.

It is easy to win this war.

But it is difficult to quickly unify and restore people's livelihood after winning.

If it wasn't for this, the more than 20 titled Douluo in the Wuhun Hall performed the beheading action together, directly killing all the royal family members and officials of the two empires, and it would be over.

Once the top management of the two empires collapsed, the mess left behind would be enough for the Wuhun Palace to drink a pot.

The high-end combat strength of Wuhundian is indeed unrivaled, but the number of middle and lower-level strengths is indeed a little less.

Just like the former Mongol Empire.

Not enough manpower, and the territory is too big.

After the site was laid down, no one took care of it.

what is it now?
Massacre the city.

You don't need to worry about killing them all.

But Wuhundian can't do this, they still want to industrialize the whole continent.

Population is the most important resource.

Therefore, if Wuhundian wants to control such a large territory of the two empires, it can only do so slowly.

In the chamber, the debate between the two became more and more intense.

Zhu Zhuqing was already dumbfounded.

Jian Douluo simply started to practice meditation.

Chrysanthemum Douluo was so bored that he leaned on Ghost Douluo and began to huff.

It's okay for the three of them to fight, but they really don't understand this kind of negotiation.

"Snapped!"

A loud slap on the table instantly woke up the four people who were stunned.

"Grand Duke Youming, my patience has a limit, you give me enough time, don't talk about these things with me!"

Xia Ling was originally a person who was afraid of trouble.

He was able to tolerate Grand Duke You Ming for so long because of Zhu Zhuqing's face.

However, Grand Duke You Ming is an old man who is old and refined, and he doesn't eat oil and salt.

That being the case, let's just flip the table.

"I'll give you two choices. First, stand on the side of the Wuhun Palace, and I can make your Zhu family the leader of this land in the future. Second, your Zhu family will continue to stay like a fool, But I can’t guarantee the result.”

"At most, it will be for Zhuqing's sake, so that you don't die too ugly."

Xia Ling didn't say that he could make the Zhu family the emperor, only the leader.

The bureaucratic class is all landlords and riches who are about to be overthrown. How could he break his own leg?

Zhu Meilin's heart trembled, and he pretended to be angry and said, "What's the meaning of His Highness Son? Are you persecuting this old man?"

Don't look at his imposing manner on the surface, but he has a murmur in his heart.

He has been in the court for so many years, and he has survived two generations of emperors. He has never seen such a business deal.

Can this person play?
How to come up and flip the table!

Xia Ling sneered.

"Yeah, I'm forcing you, what do you do? Is it possible that your Zhu family still wants to fight with me?"

"I'm being polite to you because you are Zhuqing's elder, Grand Duke Youming, don't take yourself too seriously."

"If you want to take advantage of the power of Wuhundian to get to the top, you have to pay a corresponding price. Don't even think about being a white wolf from me. Anyone who dares to play with me like this will now be two feet high on the grave. "

"If you can be the patriarch, you can be the patriarch, and if you can't be, you should change quickly."

As soon as the words fell, the coercion of the three 97-level Super Douluo had instantly enveloped the area near the meeting hall.

Many elders who were waiting for the results in the rooms on both sides were staggered by this unexpected coercion.

Some of the low-cultivation stewards were even crushed to the ground.

In the chamber, the Nether Lord is at the very center of this vortex.

The aura of the three Super Douluo crushed him to death on the seat like three peerless magic weapons.

The breath of death seemed to come quietly at this moment.

It wasn't until this time that Zhu Meilin realized that the many Nether White Tiger combinations that he was proud of seemed to have no possibility of wrestling with Wuhundian.

These are just three titled Douluo and three elders of Wuhun Hall.

The aura on them alone was already overwhelming him.

There is even more terrifying pope in Wuhundian.

Even the last pope, the last pope!
And Bone Douluo, known as the best defense in the world, and Ning Fengzhi, the best support in the world!

So what if the Nether White Tiger composed of two Contras can compete against the Title Douluo?

The problem is that they have no chance to make a shot at all.

Seeing that it was almost time, Xia Tian waved his hand.

The three Super Douluo dispersed the coercion in unison, and Zhu Meilin in the conference hall regained his ability to move.

At this time, he seemed to be fished out of the water, sitting slumped on the large teacher's chair and panting heavily.

Three big characters echoed in Zhu Meilin's mind.

sloppy.

At this moment, his heart was full of bitterness.

I thought I already had the capital to negotiate terms with Wuhundian.

In the end, he suddenly found that even if he used the strength of the whole family, he might not be able to defeat the three people in front of him.

"Do you understand now?"

Xia Ling once again looked at Grand Duke You Ming.

"If you think about it, tell me what you think."

Zhu Meilin struggled to sit up from the stool and was slow for ten seconds.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and spoke.

"His Royal Highness, my Nether family is willing to stand on the side of Wuhun Hall."

"Tsk, it's over if you said so earlier, you have to add so many dramas to yourself."

Zhu Meilin smiled embarrassingly.

"Isn't this trying to bring more benefits to the descendants of the family?"

"Don't talk nonsense with me, since you agree, let's talk about the business. About the cooperation between the Nether Family and Wuhundian"

Now that the Youming family has become their own in name, Xia Ling will use their power.

After a long, long time, the two foxes, one big and one small, finally agreed on a terms of cooperation acceptable to both of them.

Although the Youming family accepted the capital injection from the Wuhun Temple, they can't go too far before they completely break with the Baihu family.

They can only cooperate secretly with Wuhundian secretly.

For example, adding several small colleges controlled by the family to the compulsory education reform of Wuhundian.

Another example is sending some of his own children to Wuhun Academy to study and so on.

Compared to being undefended against Tai Tan, Lou Gao and others, Xia Ling didn't fully trust Zhu Meilin, the old fox.

Although he has advantages in strength and insight in the age of information explosion, but in terms of purely political and strategic struggles, he also understands that he is not that material.

I am a tour guide, you let me transform into a politician directly?

I think you are making things difficult for me, Fat Tiger.

Ever since, he deliberately left behind in Zhu Meilin's spiritual sea.

A spiritual seed that has similar functions to the one in Tang Hao's mind.

Taking advantage of the coercion of the previous three Super Douluo, he planted it in the opponent's brain with his divine sense.

With this spiritual seed, coupled with strong spiritual power, Zhu Meilin's thoughts will no longer be fortified against him.

When facing him, Xia Ling can see his thoughts at a glance as if he had his mind.

Even if Zhu Meilin really has some way to deceive the perception of the sea of ​​spirits, it doesn't matter.

This thing is equivalent to a time bomb composed of spiritual power.

As long as his mental strength is not higher than Xia Ling's, he will never be able to solve this hidden danger.

The world of comprehension has already played out the spiritual power, and it is impossible for Douluo Dalu to catch up with the rocket.

The discussion was successfully concluded, and it was time for dinner.

Grand Duke Nether warmly invited Xia Ling and the three Title Douluo to participate in the noon banquet.

Xia Ling was easy to talk to if it didn't involve interests or anything else.

After seeking Zhu Zhuqing's consent, they decided to give Grand Duke You Ming this face.

During the dinner, Grand Duke You Ming frequently hinted at when Xia Ling and Zhu Zhuqing would get married.

On the Douluo Continent, especially soul masters, they generally mature earlier.

then.

People generally get married and have children at an earlier age.

When Oscar was born, his father was only 14 years old, understand?
Xia Ling didn't hang on to him, and gave him a letter.

Let's make a decision now, at least five years after the official marriage, and wait until he and Zhu Zhuqing are over.

Now is a great time for cultivation, and it is not appropriate to indulge in personal relationships with children.

This quasi-letter surprised Grand Duke You Ming.

A lot of flattery kept praising Xia Ling, but at the same time, they didn't forget to care about Zhu Zhuqing.

The thin-skinned Zhu Zhuqing made him a little uncomfortable.

During the dinner, Xia Ling always felt that there was a malicious gaze staring at him.

When he looked, that gaze disappeared again.

This puzzled him a lot.

Could it be that there are still people in the Youming family who want to plot against him?
Xia Ling silently turned on his consciousness to scan the audience.

On the seat far away, he found a middle-aged man with resentful eyes but also a little bit of relief.

What's worth mentioning is that this middle-aged man looks a lot like Zhu Zhuqing.

A proper old handsome guy.

Could this be Zhuqing's father?

Xia Ling quickly drank a mouthful of rice to suppress his shock.

Except for Zhu Zhuyun, there seems to be no mention of other members of the Zhu family in the original book.

This made him a little uncertain about the temperament of his prospective father-in-law.

When Zhu Zhuqing lived in Wuhun Academy before, he didn't seem to have mentioned his parents.

It's just that staying in the family is like walking on eggshells.

Now it looks like that's not exactly the case.

There is definitely a story in the eyes of this guy who is suspected to be his quasi-father-in-law.
