ust invite you, you just need to express your attitude when discussing this matter in your country. For this, we are willing to pay a generous reward.”"You" Jiang Wang smiled. "Forgive my presumption,..."Meng Hua" is the name of a clothing store.

This shop is located in the middle of Dongjie Street, and you have to turn two alleys before you can see it.

It's not very big, and the business doesn't seem to be doing well. Of course, that's just "appearances".

This establishment only caters to guests of a certain standing.

All of Chong Xuan's clothing is handled by this store.

Looking at the world, "Yún Xiàng Zhāi" is naturally a place where nobles flock. But in Linzi, the reputation of "Mènghuā" is not necessarily inferior either.

Dong Street intersection is a bustling area, as lively and prosperous as Xicheng's "Treasure Basin".

People come and go, and vehicles flow like water.

Zhen Xuan's carriage stopped at the mouth of the alley. Zhen Xuan and the fourteen clad in black armor got off the carriage.

The clerk from the carriage and the others who were about to take over the operation of "Dream Flower" also got out of the carriage.

The coachmen left their carriages to rest, and Chong Xuan Sheng led a group of people swaggering into the alley.

A small courtyard is enclosed. A few old vines, adorned with potted flowers, make it a peaceful place amidst the bustle.

"Stepping into this courtyard, it feels as if one's spirit becomes refreshed."

Chong Xuan casually said something, prompting his subordinates to chime in with phrases like "refined bone" and "taste," a cacophony of meaningless flattery.

With such a large crowd coming over, the shopkeeper inside brought people out to greet them. Seeing Chongxuan Sheng, he gave a bitter salute: "Young Master Chongxuan."

This is a middle-aged man with a pale face and no beard, somewhat effeminate in appearance. He seems very polite.

Zhong Xuan triumphantly waved his hand: "Pay the bill, from now on this place will be handled by my people."

There was no room for mercy, nor any left to give.

These people are all loyal followers of Chong Xuanzun and will definitely wait until Chong Xuanzun comes out of the Jixia Academy.

Zhong Xuan Sheng also wasn't used to it, willing to wait for Zhong Xuan Zun. Let them wait, anyway during this time the Zhong Xuan family definitely wouldn't support them. Let's see how many people will be left in the end.

All the waiters in "Meng Hua" looked like beaten roosters, each with their heads drooping and spirits low. The manager, however, was still quite composed. He politely ushered Chong Xuan Sheng and his companions into the shop and handed over an account book that had already been prepared.

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

Chong Xuansheng's cashier was balancing the books, while Chong Xuansheng himself surveyed the furnishings of the shop.

Here is the translation:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The shopkeeper of "Dream Flower" hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Sir Sheng, I wonder how you plan to manage this place in the future"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"How do you run it" Chong Xuan expressed impatience.

Knowing that Chong Xuan hated to be bothered, the shopkeeper still gritted his teeth and took out a small booklet, handing it over with both hands: “Young Master Chong, this old man has been running ‘Meng Hua’ for many years and has some experience. The specific business strategies are all in this booklet. As long as your people follow it, they will definitely not lose money.”

Zhong Xuan didn't accept it, only glancing at him: "No need."

The shopkeeper kept his hands raised, pleadingly saying, "Meng Hua's success today wasn't easy. I wouldn't dare harbor ill intentions. I'm just afraid it will collapse like this... I never meant to say that the people under your command were incompetent! It's just, it's just... different professions are worlds apart. After all, there's no other Meng Hua in Linzi."

He was indeed sincere. And he truly loved "Dream Flower," fearing it would be defiled. He believed Chongxuan Zun would certainly achieve victory in the end, but he feared that when Chongxuan Zun emerged from Ji Xia Academy, "Dream Flower" would be gone.

Therefore, he spared no effort to reveal all his years of business experience, hoping that Chong Xuan could help him "keep" it safe.

Zhong Xuan smiled playfully, "I'm not being polite to you, I really don't need it. From now on, this place won't be selling clothes anymore."

The shopkeeper was astonished. “If you’re not selling clothes, what are you selling”

Zhong Xuan pondered for a moment with a serious expression, as if he was deeply considering his words, before saying, “Selling roasted chicken!”

At this time, his subordinates came over and whispered, "Young Master Sheng, you said before that you were selling roasted duck. We have already ordered the ducks."

Another person tapped his head: “Young Master Sheng said to sell whatever he wants!”

The shopkeeper's face was ashen.

The original staff of "Dream Flower" were all afraid to speak up.

"I say, do you get a sense of accomplishment from showing off to these small fry" Wang Yiwu's voice suddenly rang out.

He walked in from outside, stopping at the door. His tall figure cast a shadow over the entrance.

The shop fell silent.

Zhong Xuan turned back, squinting at him: "I thought you should be back at the barracks by now."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He certainly wasn't here to show off in front of ordinary people. He was making a statement for those watching, showing them what happens to those who support Chong Xuanzun. Letting them know that Chong Xuanzun couldn't even keep his favorite shop safe. Making it clear which side they should choose.

With Chong Xuan Zun gone, Wang Yiwu and Wen Lianmu have already lost. This is precisely the time to gradually chip away at Chong Xuan Zun's influence. While this method isn't very honorable, it will be effective.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Otherwise, with his size, even if he truly enjoyed showing off, he wouldn't bother making the trip.

He was rather envious of Jiang Wang, who spent his days cultivating and nothing else. He never left the house. How leisurely!

“I did go back to the military camp. But after thinking about it, I came back.” Wang Yiwu said.

"Is something the matter" Chong Xuan asked.

“That person. The one who arranged for the assassins to enter the city with no way out of hell, has he pledged allegiance to you already”

"I don't know what you're talking about." Zhong Xuan stared straight at him, "You're very boring, Wang Yiwu."

>

"You know I'm telling the truth."

“Before your elder brother went to the Jixia Academy, he said that he would entrust his business to you. You should have said, 'No, with my pig-like brain, how could I possibly compete with Chongxuan Sheng' This might have made him think of a way not to go to the Jixia Academy.”

Zhong Xuan said sarcastically with a blank expression, "If you can't take the loss, don't play."

“Ha!” Wang Yiwu pointed at Chong Xuan Sheng. “You’ll never be as good as Azun in one thing, do you know what it is”

“I don't want to know, and I don't agree with that, so you won't say anything” Chongxuan folded his arms: “I want to see if I can suffocate you.”

"You're awfully naive," Wang Yiwu said. "Azun knows very well how much capital the Battle of Qiyang would bring you, how it would make you influential. But he has never once considered what he would do in the Battle of Qiyang."

"What's the overall situation The overall situation is that we are all in Linzi, we are all people from Qi. When Qi is strong, I am strong; when Qi is weak, I am weak. Azun recognizes the victory of the State of Qi, even if you will gain the greatest profit from it. He acknowledges the expansion of the Xuanjia, even if you will gain enough capital from it."

And you Don't you really know what kind of terrible consequences would arise if a high-ranking official like yourself were assassinated in the capital city

You really don't know how much disgust the involvement of people from the Chongxuan family in this matter would cause the Emperor

You knew, but you did it anyway.

You had a temporary advantage, but you made the heavy Xuan family lose their long-term trust.

>

You put your personal interests above those of your family, and even the nation's. You only care about defeating Azun, for which you will stop at nothing, without considering the future of your family at all.

You and your father, what a pair!

Thirty years ago, the Heavy Xuan's portrait caused them to lose the Emperor's trust. Your Heavy Xuan family sacrificed everything and fought for thirty years before regaining your current status. Thirty years later, you are repeating history.

Zhong Xuan Sheng, you are not even as good as one hair on Zhong Xuan Zun's head!

Zhong Xuan remained silent, listening patiently to his words. He showed no change in expression, only furrowing his brow slightly: "If you wanted to provoke me, then you failed. Because I don't understand a word you're saying."

“Yeah, yeah, you don't understand. I can't find any evidence either, everything I say is just nonsense.”

Wang Yiwu shook his head and smiled, as if laughing at himself.

When his smile faded, he looked intently at Chong Xuan Sheng—

"Do you still remember what I asked you the day Ah Zun went to Ji Xia Academy"n playing around Yun Guo for a few days.He had one, Jiang Wang had one, Ye Qingyu had one, Jiang An'an had one, Chunhui had one. They frolicked merrily all over the Yun Kingdom. They ate delicious fo...
