Chapter 520 Shocking Information
Yu Funan truly regretted chatting so much with Zhang Jiucheng.
But who would have thought the Jiang family people would come out so quickly!?
Now it was too late to run, could only wait here.
Yu Funan didn't even dare to whisper a sentence. In front of such big figures, your murmuring is great disrespect.
Zhang Jiucheng didn't know, wanted to ask in a low voice. Just as a little sound came from his throat, Yu Funan squeezed his wrist hard.
Zhang Jiucheng saw Yu Funan's forehead and neck were covered in sweat, waist bowed, head lowered, not daring to look at people.
Peripheral vision fixed tightly on himself.
Zhang Jiucheng understood, also maintained the same posture as him, motionless.
Jiang Xiaohu walked, Yu Kuohai said smilingly: "Master Lord, since you've come to the North Kingdom this time, why not stay at home for a few days? The major families in the North Kingdom have been looking forward to you like looking forward to stars and the moon! Knowing you're coming to the North Kingdom, everyone wants to witness Your Highness's heroic demeanor!"
Jiang Xiaohu smiled: "Don't want to disturb you too much. I know, if I come for a trip, you'll spend a lot of money, each and every one of you nervous to death."
"Hiya, what kind of talk is this! We couldn't even hope for it! If Your Highness has ample time, I can have people from several major families come pay respects, and by the way, report on the recent situation in the North Kingdom."
Jiang Xiaohu stopped, glanced at Yu Funan and Zhang Jiucheng under the corridor.
Before Jiang Xiaohu could ask, Chief Steward Yu Dong said smilingly: "That's a local family head, probably came to pay respects, didn't know Your Highness was here, too late to leave, got trapped here. Offended Your Highness, Your Highness please don't blame."
"Oh, it's fine."
Jiang Xiaohu walked forward. Yu Kuohai looked back, his eyes not too pleased.
Yu Kuohai said: "The matters Your Highness instructed, we will handle them as soon as possible. With us in the North Kingdom, Your Highness please rest assured. As for that..."
"Lu! Cheng! Wen!" Jiang Xiaohou interrupted him, turned around: "Know him?"
Yu Kuohai was confused.
These years in the North Kingdom, he knew all the big figures in the ancient martial world, but this Lu Chengwen, never heard of.
Just as Yu Kuohai faltered, Junshi and Chief Steward Yu Dong immediately said smilingly: "A wealthy merchant from Xuecheng, very young, said to be very capable. Recently involved in real estate development, doing somewhat well. He is an ancient martial artist, but has no master or sect. The local 'bored and overfed' organization should have already tested him, but the specific situation hasn't been announced."
These few sentences from Yu Dong were spoken very skillfully.
Because he didn't know Jiang Xiaohu's attitude towards this person, his wording was very neutral, not showing his, or the Yu family's, attitude towards this person.
But the specific main information had already been provided, equivalent to reminding Yu Kuohai.
Yu Kuohai said: "This humble subordinate is not too familiar with him, Your Highness please forgive."
Jiang Xiaohou smiled: "It's fine, he's a minor figure. It's right you don't know him, it would be strange if you did."
Then said: "Mr. Junshi indeed sees things clearly, quite detailed understanding of Xuecheng's affairs!"
Yu Dong said smilingly: "Family Head often admonishes the clan members, our Yu family is Your Highness's eyes and ears in the North Kingdom. Must listen more, see more, ask more, think more. Only when Your Highness inquires, can we slightly exert our meager strength for Your Highness."
"Mm." Jiang Xiaohu was very happy: "Such a Junshi deserves reward. Such a family head also deserves reward."
Yu Kuohai was overjoyed: "This humble subordinate being able to contribute slightly to the Jiang family, to Your Highness, is overcome with joy, dare not covet rewards. Uh... this Lu Chengwen, is he Your Highness's friend? Does the Yu family need to take care of him a bit?"
Over there, Zhang Jiucheng almost fainted.
My heavens!
What kind of thing is Lu Chengwen!?
How could someone like Jiang Xiaohu know Lu Chengwen!?
Yu Funan looked over, thinking, Damn you just keep causing trouble! Luckily didn't let you in. If you damn went in and said something, who knows how big the trouble would be!
The two's sweat! Dripping!
Jiang Xiaohu said: "Not a friend, not familiar either. Just asked casually."
Jiang Xiaohu dared say this, Yu Kuohai didn't dare believe it!
Yu Kuohai accompanied with a smile, cautiously: "Your Highness please give an instruction, otherwise subordinate doesn't know how to grasp the measure."
Jiang Xiaohu laughed heartily: "His matters, you can't manage."
Jiang Xiaohu used his fan to part the willow branches, looked at the scenery here, seemed to be in a good mood.
"His background is thick, now even I can't touch him."
Yu Kuohai glanced at Yu Dong. Yu Dong nodded slightly.
Yu Kuohai continued smilingly: "Under heaven, where is there anyone with more status than Your Highness? That Lu Chengwen might have some background, but no matter how big the background, it's still under the Jiang family's protection!"
"You got that right." Jiang Xiaohou sighed: "He is now thoroughly under the Jiang family's protection."
Over there, Zhang Jiucheng almost couldn't stand, nearly fainted.
Yu Kuohai said: "This humble subordinate understands, this humble subordinate will immediately send people..."
"Did I ask you to send people?"
Jiang Xiaohu's face changed as quickly as flipping a book, instantly turning cold.
Yu Kuohai was scared dazed there, momentarily didn't know what to say.
Yu Dong immediately said: "The Yu family will await Your Highness's instructions, follow Your Highness's lead, act according to Your Highness's orders."
"Mm." Jiang Xiaohou nodded: "His life or death, you all don't bother, someone will take care of him."
Thinking of his own little sister, falling for a glib-tongued merchant.
Especially... even Xia Ying, when mentioning him, clearly had a good impression of him. Jiang Xiaohu felt unhappy!
A stinky merchant, on what grounds!?
My little sister's character, simply treats laws as nothing.
Although not said out loud, it's entirely possible my little sister proactively offered herself!
My little sister to be... by a merchant...
Damn it, just thinking about it makes me angry!
Seeing Yu Kuohai's nervous appearance, he softened his tone: "Not aimed at you, it's with Lu Chengwen... let's not mention him."
Jiang Xiaohu's words, he himself understood. These people were all confused.
At this moment, a servant ran in from outside, knelt on one knee: "Reporting to Your Highness, Family Head, the carriages are ready."
Pa! Jiang Xiaohu slapped the fan in his palm: "Depart."
Yu Kuohai and Junshi followed to see them off.
They walked out the main gate. Zhang Jiucheng and Yu Funan let out a long sigh of relief together.
Yu Funan looked at Zhang Jiucheng: "That Lu Chengwen Your Highness mentioned, wouldn't be that what Lu Chengwen you just mentioned, right?"
"Sounds... like the same person."
Yu Funan said: "Old Zhang, no matter whose son he killed, forget it. Listen to me."
"Yes yes yes, I know I know, definitely forget it, can't not forget."
Yu Funan panted heavily: "Quick quick quick, hurry up and leave."
At this moment, Junshi Yu Dong strode over: "You two, come here!"
Yu Funan saw, over.
Walked over with Zhang Jiucheng: "Junshi."
"What are you doing? Zhang Jiucheng, what did you come here for?"
Zhang Jiucheng said: "Reporting to Junshi, I... I... I came to see the Family Head, wanted to pay respects."
Yu Dong's expression was displeased: "Every word heard today must be forgotten. Leak half a word! No one can protect you, understand or not?"
"I didn't hear anything today! I'm deaf today!"
Yu Dong smiled, tapped Zhang Jiucheng's head with his fan: "Consider you quick-witted."
Yu Funan saw Yu Dong smiled, he immediately got excited, said smilingly: "Dage, Your Highness's reception by our Yu family, still satisfied?"
A smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of Yu Dong's mouth: "The Jiang family's attention to the North Kingdom is very high recently. The Yu family's good days are coming."
At this moment, Family Head Yu Kuohai walked in: "Junshi."
"Family Head."
"Some matters we need to discuss. Where are all the high-level members?"
"All waiting in the side hall."
"Good, meeting, discuss all agenda items."
"Yes."
"Remember to add that... that who?"
"Lu Chengwen."
"Right. Your Highness specifically asked this person's name, but gave no clear instructions. If this matter isn't handled properly, we are idiots in his eyes, understand?"
"Understand!" Yu Dong said: "All conversation content I've remembered. Will form text when back, everyone discuss together."
"Have a general idea?"
"Yes." Junshi immediately said: "This person, we can only watch, cannot touch."
Yu Kuohai nodded: "Say it at the meeting later."
"Yes."
Yu Kuohai looked at Zhang Jiucheng: "Jiucheng, did your family have trouble recently? Serious?"
"Not serious! Not serious!"
"Oh, if there's anything, just tell Junshi."
"Yes yes yes, Family Head truly dotes on the Zhang family. The entire Zhang family up and down is moved to tears of gratitude!"
"Hahahaha!" Yu Kuohai said: "His Highness of the Jiang family stayed at our Yu family!"
He rubbed his fists: "What great face!? Hahaha! In the future in the North Kingdom, whoever dares speak loudly to the Yu family will have to think twice!"
Yu Kuohai strode inwards, laughing uproariously.
Junshi said smilingly: "Funan, see Zhang family head out for me."
"Yes."
Walking out of the Yu family mansion, Zhang Jiucheng's head was spinning.
When he entered, still thinking of borrowing the Yu family's power to kill Lu Chengwen, Long Aotian, and Zhao Ritian.
One person from the Yu family could settle all matters in Xuecheng!
And this, for the Yu family, was extremely simple!
The second steward could handle it with one sentence!
But!
After the scene just now, you still dare touch Lu Chengwen!?
You still... ask him for money!?
Ask for Tianmen Dan!?
Ask for Zhang Shen'er!?
Give it to him, give it all to him! It's all his!
Recalling Lu Chengwen's tone when threatening him, so certain, so domineering, so authoritative...
Zhang Jiucheng felt waves of lingering fear, now even more drenched in cold sweat.
He rushed back a few steps, grabbed Yu Funan: "Erge! The matter concerning Lu Chengwen mentioned at the meeting, if you know, you must remind me! The Zhang family depends on you!"
Yu Funan looked at him, nodded.
Zhang Jiucheng sat in the back seat of the car. The driver looked at him: "Family Head, is it... the Yu family refuses to help?"
Zhang Jiucheng shook his head: "Don't ask, very... very... anyway don't ask. Drive."
Zhang Jiucheng seemed to remember something, snatched up the phone, quickly dialed the Sun family's number: "Hello? Old Sun! It's Jiucheng, phew... have something, I need to tell you. Ai, I really want to... I really want to slap myself to death!"
