Su Ying and others are so disrespectful.

However, the fight between Xuan Hao and her has become almost obvious. Although it is not fierce, it is still tit for tat. Even if it is not at this time, Su Ying is unlikely to invite Xuan Hao to go up together, let alone when it is a banquet for Wu Kong.

As long as Wu Kong goes up to the banquet with him, even if Wu Kong doesn't make any statement and doesn't give Su Ying and others any extra benefits, Su Ying will be satisfied - Wu Kong ignores Xuan Hao and accepts Su Ying's banquet. Can't you explain something?

There is a signal to the outside world - talented people like Mr. Chang Gen have abandoned Xuan Hao for Su Ying, which shows that Su Ying and his wife are more attractive and competitive.

If it's just Wu Kong's reputation now, that's fine. If he can advance step by step in the imperial examination and become more and more famous, then what happened today will cause more and more sensation and influence.

That's why Xuan Hao disregarded his face and came here to try to get involved with Mr. Chang Gen. Xuan Hao wouldn't pay too much attention to Mr. Chang Gen. The results in the imperial examination are too unbelievable, and it will not be good when the time comes.It would be even worse if, by chance, this "Mr. Chang Gen" was confused for a moment and revealed some of the methods of controlling luck to Su Ying.

Seeing that the three of them were about to turn around and leave, Xuan Hao felt unwilling and said: "Mr. Chang Gen, I have ordered people to clean the guest room in the mansion, and the door of Dongji Shaozun's mansion is open at all times. If you are tired, sir." If you need peace of mind, you can come back at any time. The built-in Qi Luck Condensation Formation is very helpful for understanding things or practicing."

Su Ying frowned slightly and was about to say something, but Wu Kong turned back and smiled at Xuan Hao: "Young City Master is interested."

Xuanhao was overjoyed.

Wu Kong showed that he wanted to be a wallflower, playing both sides, and not completely siding with Su Ying.It would be bad if he refused to return to Dong Ji Shaozun's mansion.Although he didn't say anything back now, Xuan Hao was secretly happy that he was vaguely agreeing but not agreeing.

At that moment, Xuan Hao didn't say any more, and without any extravagant expectation to go any further, he quickly cupped his hands and said, "I and your Majesty, the noble lord, are here to greet you."

Without waiting for Wu Kong to say anything, he quickly turned around and left.

Su Ying said: "Although the door of Dongji Shaozun's Mansion is always open, the threshold is quite high and the steps are easy to trip over. My husband and I have prepared a guest room for Mr. Dongji Shaozun in Dongji Shaozun's Palace. Of course, if Mr. is not satisfied, You can also stay at 'Huixianju', my husband has arranged a house there. You can follow your wishes on both sides."

Wu Kong sighed slightly: "The palace master is interested."

Compared to that Xuan Hao, Su Ying is a better person.

Although Xuan Hao was enthusiastic, he only gave Wu Kong one choice.Su Ying's enthusiasm gave Wu Kong an extra choice, which made people feel more comfortable invisibly and psychologically.After all, I have more choices.Although Wu Kong didn't care about the guest room in Huixianju, he felt the sincerity of Su Ying and his wife.

If it weren't for his special status, he and the Great Zhou Dynasty would most likely become rivals in the end. Otherwise, he could really make friends with Su Ying and his wife.Regardless of the imperial examination or not, the two of them can be promoted to become viscounts. In the future, with the help of a viscount friend with a fiefdom, no matter what they do, the path will be much easier.

It's a pity that Wu Kong is only happy to be a bystander now.Firstly, I don't want to put in the trouble, and secondly, I'm worried that it would be bad if I really developed a deep friendship with Su Ying and his wife.In the future, if you fall out with the Great Zhou Emperor, even your friends will fall out with each other, how depressing will it be?It's better to just keep the relationship light and thin, and there will be no psychological burden if you fall out in the future.

With thoughts flashing in his mind, he and the two of them walked into the lobby of Juxian Tower and climbed up the stairs.

The space environment here can be made wider and larger, but it is deliberately made larger than the restaurant in the mortal world. The purpose is to allow many celebrities and powerful people to come and go here, and have the opportunity to meet and make friends.

This restaurant is different from other restaurants. Other restaurants can allow ordinary Lords of the universe to come in and out at will. There are seats in the lobby where they can sit and communicate with each other. This is lacking here. There are identity restrictions for entry and exit. Therefore, why not make this place smaller? , just lacks the atmosphere of a restaurant.

Of course, there are actually gates to parallel dimensions. For example, if you don't want to meet other people, you can directly drive your mount or car, enter the hotel from the back door, pause, and directly enter the box.Or you can walk in from the gate, but walk through a parallel space passage that is different from the ordinary passage, and you will not encounter other people. You can also walk down from the box without encountering other people, and then teleport directly to the city at the gate. Entrances and exits to various public places.

This is convenient for those who want to act secretly.

“The setting is quite thoughtful.”

Wu Kong thought to himself.

Going up the stairs, people passed by from time to time. Su Ying deliberately let people know that the couple invited "Mr. Chang Gen", so as to have a big impact.

However, when I went up a few floors, I suddenly saw a strong man who looked like a middle-aged man, wearing armor and a robe. His face was full of majesty. At this time, he laughed, and his stern look turned into kindness: " I didn't expect such a coincidence. Niece Su Yingxian, it's really rare for you to come to Juxian Tower. Could it be that we are hosting a distinguished guest today?"

Su Ying's eyes widened and she hurriedly handed over her hand: "I've met Uncle Su."

Then he said: "I made a new friend today, so I invited him over for a drink."

"Oh? I wonder which talented person it is? It's because Dexian's niece and his wife treat each other so differently." The middle-aged man surnamed Su was already staring at Wu Kong.

Su Ying had no choice but to introduce him: "This is Mr. Chang Gen. I am a candidate for the imperial examination. He is from Dongji Huancheng. We and I hit it off immediately."

Then he introduced to Wu Kong: "This is Uncle Su, the warden of Su Town, the warden of Dongji Town."

The so-called guard is not a name, but an official position, which means the highest commander in charge of the military force of this city.He is probably similar to Mr. Xiao from Dongji Huancheng, and his power is much greater than that of Mr. Xiao.

This Dongji City belongs to the territory of the lord of Dongji City, but the Zhou Dynasty has rules. Each place can be divided into a title. Having a title does not necessarily mean that you will get territory, but those who get territory enfeoffment must have a title.

These enfeoffed territories can be autonomous. As long as they don't cause anger and resentment, the Zhou Dynasty basically doesn't care.Policies, taxes, governance plans, etc. here are all decided by the city lord, who has a very high position and power.

However, there are two points that the Lord of Dongji City cannot completely grasp.One is the imperial examination, where the emperor selects talents and local lords are not allowed to interfere.These talents passed the imperial examination and eventually joined the official and gentry system of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If local lords interfered, it would be a serious crime and they would be punished or even have their merit deducted. In serious cases, they might be demoted.

This is because the Great Zhou Dynasty sucked blood and talents from various places, and naturally took away some luck.At the same time, the most elite talents were absorbed, and the remaining ones, although they still had high talents, could be accepted by local lords.This is to avoid places becoming too strong.Take away the elite, and it doesn’t matter what’s left.Therefore, although the local lords made good friends with all the candidates who took part in the imperial examination, they would make friends with them regardless of whether they could pass the examination.

Once you do well in the exam, you will have support in the court and help from the outside world. This is a good network.If you do poorly in the exam, the court won't want it, but the local government can still ask for it.

Most of the important official positions in the territories that were not enfeoffed territories and were under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court were those who passed the imperial examination.As for the enfeoffment to a certain lord, if there are some cronies who need to be placed in the lord's territory, they will often

Will use those who are quite capable but have failed the scientific examination.This is the reason why lords and officials everywhere treat scholars very well.

In addition, the Zhou Dynasty did not allow localities to have more troops than their establishment.The city lord can have a certain number of "personal guards". In addition to the personal guards, there are also city guards or state guards.These city-protecting armies and state-protecting armies were paid according to military pay, half of which was paid by the court and the other half by the local city lord.It is equivalent to the local army being maintained by the city lord and the court.But these troops must be controlled by officials sent by the court.

For example, this Zhenshou Su is an official sent by the imperial court to take charge of the army here.

Guard Su usually has the right to train, send people to train, and has the right to eliminate any soldiers he thinks are bad. He can eliminate them from the army. However, he does not have the right to select people and cannot force them into the army.But the city lord can bring in whoever he wants, but Zhengshou Su can take away whoever he wants, and can even kill people, as long as the death quota is not exceeded.

However, Su Zhenshou does not have the power to raise troops. For example, this army can go out of the city to train or fight without the permission of the city lord. Unless there is a direct decree from the court confirming that the city lord is in rebellion, and to capture the city lord, Su Zhenshou can You can raise troops directly.Otherwise, even if the imperial court requests the city to send troops, it can only issue an order to the city lord, who will then order Su Zhen to send troops.

The number of troops to be sent is determined by the city lord, but the number of soldiers and horses to be sent is determined by Su Zhenzheng.

In terms of logistics, it is completely under the control of the city lord. The people guarding Su can supervise or appeal, but in terms of commanding operations, the city lord must not interfere. Otherwise, it will be regarded as encroaching on military power and will be held accountable.However, as long as the enemy is not fighting face to face or fighting in a short period of time, the city lord can forcibly order the troops to withdraw and return to the town to guard, and the guard Su must obey.

In addition, if there is an attack by a foreign enemy, and the garrison has no time to obtain the permission of the city lord who is practicing in seclusion or doing other things, he can command the defense of the city, but he is not allowed to send troops out of the city to pursue him, and he is not allowed to send troops to search the city. He must search within the city. Matters related to the police system are managed by the peace officers under the city lord.

Anyway, the layers of the government restrained each other and no one could mess up. This was how the Great Zhou Dynasty controlled the place and ensured its stability.

Of course, if the city lord is strong enough, it is not impossible to mess around in the place. As long as he does not cause anger or is proven to have rebellious behavior, colludes with people in the unspeakable land and has already taken actions, etc., other than these, the city lord Do whatever you want.

However, Zhenshou's status was also quite high, and even Su Ying and Xuan Hao had to treat people like Su Zhenshou respectfully.

"Only the strength of the second level of the third realm of immortality..." Wu Kong glanced at Su Zhengshou and felt that he could defeat Su Zhengshou with just one slap.However, this is outside the city, and in the city, Su Zhenshou can gather the city's energy and focus on himself with just a thought.No matter how powerful Wu Kong is, he is no match at all.Either run out of the city and fight again, or... you can only bow your head.

This is like a warrior with invincible courage facing a general who has the power to command a large army but whose individual strength is far inferior to him. It is really difficult to cause trouble in the opponent's military camp and the area surrounded by the army. .

However, Guard Su seemed unable to see through Wu Kong's strength. At this time, he smiled as if he were looking at a junior and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Chang Gen."

Then he turned to look at Su Ying and asked: "I also happen to have a banquet in this building. Are niece Xian and his wife interested in coming over for a drink? Of course, Mr. Chang Gen can also come over."

Su Ying and his wife looked at each other, and Su Ying smiled and said: "Thanks to Uncle Lao Su's kind invitation, my husband and I have already held a banquet in the building. We won't bother you today. Let's wait for another day."

Su Zhenshou said: "I see... Well, I wonder if Su is lucky enough to go over and have a drink?"

Suying's heart skipped a beat.

He hesitated.

She wanted to refuse in her heart. She was very clear about Su Zhengshou's purpose, and she also wanted to have Chang Gen's idea.

Su Zhenshou is still only in the second level of the Third Realm of Immortality. Logically speaking, if he wants to take the imperial examination, participate in the liberal arts test, and become a civil servant, it is also possible.What's more, Su Zhenshou also has some close disciples and disciples. If he can get "Mr. Chang Gen's" management method, then I'm afraid...

Legend has it that Su Zhenshou had also participated in the liberal arts examination before, but he failed many times in practice before turning to the martial arts examination.

This person has a high position of power. If he can get his support, he may be able to overwhelm Xuan Hao's side.

If he offended him...Zhengshou Su might not be able to help Su Ying, but it would not be difficult to destroy Su Ying's good deeds.Some people are more likely to fail than succeed. If they want to help others, they may not be able to succeed, but if they want to do bad things and do good things, they are very good at it. Su Zhenshou has such ability and strength.

However, Xue Ning's voice came from Su Ying's heart: "The Lord of the City has always been at odds with Su Zhenshou. If we get too close to him and the news reaches the ears of the City Lord, it will be bad."

Suying's heart skipped a beat.

Although Su Zhenshou's support is good, the final decision on who to give the title to is still made by the city lord.

"However, it is not good to offend him too much, otherwise it would not be good for him to hold a grudge and blindly cause destruction." Xue Ning said.

Su Ying smiled bitterly. There were only two ways now. How could it be so easy not to offend Su Zhenshou?

After pondering for a while, her mind turned rapidly, Su Ying quickly made a decision, sighed slightly, and said: "I'm afraid there will be some inconvenience today, why don't I and my wife hold a birthday banquet tomorrow, invite Uncle Su to take a seat, and then apologize for today's incident?" ,how?"

Logically speaking, Su Zhenshou should have walked down the steps at this time, but he continued to ask: "What's the inconvenience? Is it possible that my face is not worth a glass of water and wine?"

Su Ying was a little embarrassed, Xue Ning thought to herself and said: "Now that the words have reached this point, even if the Lord of the City is here, he will not refute his face. It makes sense for us to invite him in. It is not for us to make friends with him. , it’s him who shamelessly wants to follow, so even if Xuan Hao secretly informs someone to the city lord, we can make sense. At worst, we will quickly reveal the matter to the city lord in some way after today, and be sure to let the city lord know the truth, lest he There was a misunderstanding.”

Su Ying nodded secretly and said to Su Zhenshu: "Since Uncle Su has said so, if we don't invite Uncle Su in for a drink, it would be too rude and disrespectful."

First, he turned to look at Wu Kong: "What do you think, Mr. Chang Gen?"

Wu Kong said: "The guests are welcome to the host. Besides, a big shot like Su Zhenshou can't be invited even if he wants to. What's more, Mr. Su takes the initiative and intentionally participates? That's naturally what he wants."

Su Ying said: "In this case, Uncle Su will invite you, and Mr. Chang Gen will invite you."

"Hahahahaha, okay, okay, niece Xian is really sensible. However, today I am relying on my old age again and want to bring a guest in with me. I wonder if niece Xian will like it?"

"Oh? I don't know who the guest is." Su Ying asked.

At this time, Su Zhenshou stepped aside, and a handsome young man with a smile appeared behind him. He looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, personable, gentle and elegant.

It looked quite unfamiliar, and the aura power fluctuations on her body were also unfamiliar, but Su Ying felt familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.

"This is... Mr. Zhou Zhou from the capital of Emperor Zhou." Su Zhenshou introduced him seriously.
