Douluo: Man is in peerless world, resurrecting angel

Chapter 51 This Noble Name Is Wu Di
In the northern part of the Tianhun Empire, the land of Marquis Wuhao of the Empire, Hanyu City.

This is Wu Di's family fiefdom. This place has been passed down for thousands of years since the ancestors of the Wu family were granted the fiefdom and until Wu Di took over.

The Wu family's land area has also changed from a rural area in the north to a behemoth that occupies half of the northern provinces and a small part of the western provinces of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

The Wu family made its fortune during the Second Tiandou Civil War. The ancestors of the Wu family followed Emperor Tianhun to drive the Xue family from the original royal family out of Tiandou City and obtained the noble status of baron.

Later, the Wu family lost their troops and territory during the invasion of the Sun and Moon Empire, and then pathetically fled in a hurry with Emperor Tianhun, and gained the merit of protecting him.

(Historically, Emperor Tianhun was beaten out of Tiandou City by the Sun Moon Empire.)
In the end, the Wu family fought back with the coalition forces organized by Shrek Academy and won the final victory.

As one of the few nobles who did not surrender to the Sun and Moon Empire, the Wu family became a Marquis under the appreciation of Emperor Tianhun, and became the largest prince in the Northland.

Later, the conflict with the Sun and Moon Empire intensified. In order to save trouble, Emperor Tianhun directly appointed Wu Haohou of the past dynasties as military commanders in the north to defend against the attack of the Sun and Moon Empire.

up to now...

It's not good to say,

The people in the north of the Heavenly Soul Empire, apart from knowing that they are from the Heavenly Soul Empire, basically think that the officials under Marquis Wu Hao are their parents.

A person sent by the center of the Heavenly Soul Empire?

What are they going to do other than make us pay taxes?

One sentence from Wu Haohou may be more effective in the north than ten words from the Emperor of the Tianhun Empire.

As I said before,
The Tianhun Empire was inherited from the Tiandou Empire.
Most of the local nobles are powerful nobles with military and financial power in their own fiefdoms.

In addition to taxes, military service, etiquette...including some foreign policies, local powerful nobles need to keep pace with the central government of the Tianhun Empire.

They are almost a country within a country.

Hanyu City is the central area of ​​Wu Haohou's fiefdom in the north, so naturally the Hou's mansion is also built here.

At this moment, Wu Di, the new generation of Wu Haohou, is sitting in the study room of his mansion working.

It is very strange that the nobles of the empire, especially men, seem to like to work in the study.

Wu Di graduated from Shrek Academy. He is only 19 years old, but his soul power has already reached level [-].

In fact, Wu Di could have entered the inner court, but there was no other way, the Wu family was sparsely populated, and the huge family business was still waiting for Wu Di to inherit it.

For such a talented soul master lord, everyone in the fief respects Wu Di very much.

Of course, the officials are more of a headache for Wu Di.

Because Wu Di is very thoughtful, unlike his conservative ancestors, Wu Di has a strong interest in and great energy for the development model of the soul tool industry.

This is a hardship for the people working under Wu Di.

"It's been a good year."

After Wu Di finished his morning work, he picked up his already cold breakfast: five steamed buns with an egg, and a bowl of egg drop soup.

Wu Di drank the cold egg drop soup very quickly, and went down in one sip. One egg was stuffed into his mouth, and then he took two steamed buns, and put the remaining steamed buns on his desk.

This is supper.

Wu Di came out of the study, and his maid... now should be called a service staff in the fiefdom, respectfully welcoming her master... now called a boss in the fiefdom.

"Master... Boss, your lunch has been prepared on time, do you need me to heat it up now?"

The maid is not used to this new style of address. She has been serving the Wu family since her grandmother's generation. She has been a slave and maid for so many years. Fetching tea, cooking, and warming the bed have long been used to it and it has become their family's inheritance.

The young master has been called since he was a child, and it is engraved in his bones, but now he suddenly asked her to change his name.

too difficult.

"No need, I'll go outside and take a look. Let's heat it up for lunch and eat it in the evening. Don't waste it."

Wu Di responded with a smile, hurried downstairs, walked across the hall, and ran out.

……

……

Looking at the city composed of countless beautiful houses and the demolished city walls in the distance, Wang Dong took advantage of the opportunity to observe the surrounding environment of Hanyu City.

"This place is actually very good, although it is completely different from Tiandou City."

Wang Dong's vision is good. Although she only cares about whether the city is big or not and whether the roads are good or not...but how good can a city that is not big and has bad roads be?

In the carriage, besides Wang Dong, there were Xue Bei, Jiang Nannan and Huo Yuhao.

They all went to Wu Di's fiefdom.

Xue Bei lives in Hanyu City, and his affection for Wu Di is much deeper than Shrek;
Jiang Nannan followed Xue Bei, and it didn't matter that her mother was alone in Tiandou City anyway;
Huo Yuhao was going to Noumenon Sect and was picked up by Xue Bei by the way;

Wang Dong...he just wanted to play on his own.

Maybe Haotianzong is tired of being treated, after all, besides the sea of ​​clouds, there are mountains in Haotianzong, and the weather is also cold, even snowy.

"It's a good place with a big river to the north, mountains to the west, and plains to the southeast. It's just... there are too many houses outside the city walls, and some walls have been demolished. Is there not enough land inside the city walls?"

Jiang Nannan was very surprised by the urban construction of Hanyu City.

If the city wall is torn down, don't we need to defend?
Although it is inland of the Tianhun Empire, there is no need to tear down the city wall.

Huo Yuhao was a little restless. He found Xue Bei during the vacation and begged Xue Bei to take him away from Shrek City to the Noumenon Sect.

Because he had always troubled Xue Bei and felt a little dependent on others, Huo Yuhao did not dare to say much.

He listened honestly to what Jiang Nannan, who had a good relationship with Xue Bei, and Wang Dong, who had a strong family background, said.

"I didn't know Wu Di actually demolished the city wall."

Xue Bei looked at the city in surprise. He had not been back for a long time. After seeing the huge changes in the city with his own eyes, Xue Bei felt a little strange in his heart.

"Go directly to the Marquis Mansion," Xue Bei said.

This carriage master who traveled back and forth between Tiandou City and Hanyu City was obviously more familiar with this city than Xue Bei.

"The Marquis's Mansion? Are you going to the Old Marquis's Mansion or the New Marquis's Mansion?" the coachman asked.

Xue Bei was surprised, "Is there any difference between old and new?"

"Nobles like to build palaces or wonders for themselves." Wang Dong said contemptuously.

I have heard of this kind of aristocrat Wang Dong who likes to build big buildings and satisfy his selfish desires with people's fat and people's ointment.

"That's not true. The old Marquis's mansion is in the city, and now Lord Wu has used it as a school for the children. The new Marquis's mansion is the place where Lord Wu lives."

"...Huh?" Wang Dong blushed in embarrassment.

Before I knew it, I actually misunderstood Wu Di, a nobleman, and I heard that Wu Di was my senior.

"..." Wang Dong.

"Then let's go to the Old Marquis's Mansion first, and I'll take a look." Xue Bei said.
