Chapter 76: Redefine the Rules
The royal messenger came to Fenglei Town, and the Wang family who was in charge of this reception naturally had to treat him well.
The subordinates checked the accounts and determined the candidates to study at the Royal Academy. The next step was to host a banquet to entertain the envoys.
All the top figures in Fenglei Town were to accompany him. As for younger children like Yang Teng, he naturally did not qualify for the banquet seat. Of course, Yang Teng didn't want to accompany this sissy for dinner, he was afraid he could not help but vomit.
Several juniors retired first.
Seeing Yang Teng unhappy, Zhao Yilin gently took Yang Teng's hand, "Yang Teng, don't take this to heart. It's not a big deal not to go to the Royal Academy, it's not that you can become a strong person only by entering the Royal Academy. Go Studying is just another way to broaden your horizons."
Yang Teng adjusted his mood, he also understood this truth, that life did not enter the Royal Academy, and eventually he did not become a powerful man in Dongzhou.
He didn't participate in the Grand Competition because of his heartbreak, and he didn't pay attention to it. He didn't even know who went to the Royal Academy in the end.
But one thing is certain, before he was attacked and killed, no one in Fenglei Town had a cultivation base and achievements comparable to him.
From this we can see that it's okay not to go to the Royal Academy.
The reason why Yang Teng looks forward to entering the Royal Academy to study is mainly for the huge collection of books and atmosphere of the Royal Academy.
The Royal Academy was built by the imperial family of the Izumo Empire. It gathered countless young talents in the Izumo Empire. At the same time, the instructors responsible for guiding the students' cultivation were also the most prestigious experts in the empire.
There you can learn things that cannot be learned elsewhere.
Today, this qualification was deprived, the **** messenger was arrogant and completely unreasonable to deprive him of his qualifications, Yang Teng would not be devastated by this blow.
"Yilin, I'm okay." Turning his head and looking at the brightly armored knight team, Yang Teng suddenly became proud, "Believe it or not, one day these people will be in front of me as we are now in front of them. That sissy messenger will regret what he did today!"
This is not his big talk. In that life, the king of the Izumo Empire would respectfully call Mr. Yang when he met him.
Unexpectedly, after being reborn, he would be treated this way by some messenger, maybe just a servant of the royal family, which made Yang Teng even more resentful, who had already had a thousand years of experience.
Zhao Yilin shook Yang Teng's hand slightly, and said, "I believe you can do it! But, you have to be careful when you speak. Don't let people hear you comment on the messenger like this. It is definitely not a good thing for your Yang family."
Yang Teng smiled and nodded, he still understood this sentence from the mouth.
He wasn't stunned, he just wanted to bring unsuspecting disasters to the family for a while.
"I heard it all." Wang Qi suddenly appeared behind the two.
Yang Teng turned and looked at Wang Qi. This kid was proud of the spring breeze. The great things hit his head like this, and Wang Qi walked a little ecstatically.
"Your boy's good things are coming, and his ears have become sensitive. It is not a good thing to eavesdrop on others' words behind your back. Be careful I kill people!" Yang Teng feigned anger and raised his fist to threaten Wang Qi.
They also knew each other very well. Yang Teng found that Wang Qi was still a good person. The young man was a little arrogant, but in general his temperament was not bad.
"Humph! You are ashamed to say! Although I snatched your spot, you have snatched the heart of the most beautiful beauty in Fenglei Town. What can you not be satisfied with!" Wang Qi deliberately made a jealous posture .
Zhao Yilin's face flushed immediately, and she gave Wang Qi a fierce look, "What are you talking about! Yang Teng suddenly suffered such a huge blow, I am comforting him."
"The explanation is to cover up! Back then, I lost my qualifications and Zhao Yihang also lost my qualifications at the Grand Competition. Why didn't I see you to comfort us? Use this kind of excuse to treat children as little as possible, okay? I like Yang Teng and dare not admit anything. I really don’t know what kind of good this kid has done in his life to make our beautiful Yilin so enamoured."
Wang Qi immediately acted like a nympho, "Of course, if I were a girl, I might also fall in love with him."
"Oh..." Looking at Wang Qi's appearance, Yang Teng's vomiting after a long time could not be suppressed, and he spouted.
"Don't you! I have endured that perverted sissy for a long time, can you be normal!" Yang Teng hurriedly stopped Wang Qi.
Wang Qi laughed loudly: "Okay, you dare to say bad things about the messenger behind your back, hurry up and take the hush money, or I will file a complaint!"
"Tear your mouth, and see how you complain." Yang Teng raised his hand to Wang Qi, Wang Qi and Yang Teng entangled and quarreled, and Zhao Yilin couldn't help joining the battle group.
After a while, Yang Teng felt a lot better. The three of them looked at each other and laughed. After such a fuss, they felt that the relationship between them had become much closer.
"I still have to wait on those uncles, so I won't send you off." Wang Qi tidied up his clothes and solemnly said to Yang Teng.
Yang Teng patted Wang Qi on the shoulder, "Go to the Royal Academy to practice hard, don't shame our children in Fenglei Town. I won't see you off when I leave."
Wang Qi laughed: "Don't worry, I will never be worse than others. Besides, not everyone is as perverted as you. There is always a chance for me to get ahead."
"By the way, Yang Teng, do you have any plans? You can't stay in Fenglei Town for the rest of your life. Or go to the capital together, even if you can't enter the Royal Academy, go out to broaden your horizons and increase your knowledge." Wang Qi Looking at Yang Teng expectantly.
He knew Yang Teng's abilities and potential too well, and staying in Fenglei Town all his life destroyed Yang Teng.
"Haha, don't think about me. When you see me again or hear my name in the future, you kid will still look up to me!" Yang Teng has adjusted his mentality and it doesn't matter if he can't enter the Royal Academy.
"That's good! I look forward to the situation when I see you next time." He punched Yang Teng hard in the chest, "But you remembered it for me. If you were not as good as me then, don't blame me for shooting you. Pick and fly!"
"I'm afraid you are not capable of that!" Yang Teng raised his fist.
"Take care!"
"Take care!"
The two parties solemnly bid farewell, and Wang Qi turned around and hurried back. There were still many things inside.
Yang Teng took Zhao Yilin's hand and left.
The banquet inside was full of cheers and laughter. Some were happy and some were sad. Wang Shian's smile never broke, and he worked with the strong to serve the messenger.
The old man Yang Wudi's smile looked a little ugly. He had to participate in such occasions, and he could only feel unhappy in his heart.
Until night fell, the hall was brightly lit and the banquet was not over yet.
"Everyone, this messenger came to Fenglei Town this time, and there is one more thing, which must be your most concerned thing." The messenger seemed to be in a good mood. After drinking a lot of wine, the ruddy face made him look more charming and enchanting.
Everyone hurriedly put down the wine glasses in their hands and looked at the messenger.
The matter announced by the envoy is what they are most concerned about.
"There is no city lord in Fenglei Town, and the king did not send someone to manage Fenglei Town. Therefore, everything in Fenglei Town must depend on everyone present." The messenger said in an official tone.
"This is what we should do, and we are willing to work for the king." Wang Shian and others responded loudly.
"It is precisely this way. The Wang Shang has formulated a ten-year rotation system. The Wang family was responsible for the rotation in the last ten years."
Yang Teng left early, did not hear this, and of course he was not qualified to participate in this. It turned out that the management of Fenglei Town was not messy, but the four major families took turns in charge. Each family was responsible for ten years in rotation. Replace other families.
The benefits of this can prevent which one dominates Wind and Thunder Town, which not only plays a balanced role but also can supervise each other, the benefits are still many.
In the last ten years, it was the Wang family that was in charge of the rotation. Therefore, the Wang family was responsible for all major events such as Taibi and receiving the messenger.
According to common sense, in the next ten years, the rotating family will select one of the three families of Zhao family, Li family and Yang family.
The three Patriarchs all listened nervously. Although the principle is rotation, which one is responsible for ten-year rotation is determined by the messenger.
This rotation seems to have little power and is responsible for the accounts of taxes paid for the next ten years, but the taxes have been taken away during the last ten years, which seems to be thankless.
But there must be practical benefits. For example, the Wang family was responsible for receiving the messenger today. When the messenger saw Yang Teng not pleasing to his eyes, he cancelled Yang Teng's education qualification and gave it to Wang Qi.
Who can say that this is not the benefit of rotation?
Why not give this place to Zhao Yihang after disqualifying Yang Teng, but to Wang Qi, is it just because Wang Qi's cultivation base is a lot higher than Zhao Yihang?
Several family owners don't think so stupidly.
"Before I came to Fenglei Town, the prince told me that I must inspect well. If the Wang family has done well in the past ten years, there is no need to change the rotating family. The Wang family will still be responsible for the next ten years of rotation."
The words of the messenger shocked the three Patriarchs, how could this be!
They have been waiting for ten years!
In principle, it would take forty years to take your own turn, so the chance was denied by the messenger with a light sentence?
Regardless of Yang Teng's cancellation of the opportunity to study at the Royal Academy, no one spoke. Now the power belonging to the family is gone, and the three heads of the family are gone.
Before the messenger announced that the Wang family would take the rotation in the next ten years, Zhao Xiongshan was the first one to stand up, “My messenger, it’s not compliant to do this. Since the establishment of Fenglei Town, the four families have taken turns taking turns. Rotation. This is not good for the development of Fenglei Town, and it is not in compliance."
Li Hanfeng also objected, "My Envoy, the rotation is our power, and you can't cancel our power."
Yang Wudi didn't say a word, anyway, this **** messenger looked at the Yang family not pleasing to the eye, and no one was in the turn of the Yang family, and it was impossible to contradict the messenger. It is not certain who the messenger will do in the next ten years.
The messenger's face suddenly became gloomy, his eyes full of murderous intent.
"Pop!" He slapped the table hard.
The messenger shouted angrily: "What do you want to do! I said that this is the decision of the prince. Do you dare to question the prince!"
Seeing the messenger lift the prince to suppress them, Zhao Xiongshan did not back down, "Rotation is the rule set by the king!"
To put it bluntly, the prince has not yet become the king, and the head of the Izumo Empire is still the king, and it is not yet his turn to make the rules.
