Chapter 335: Invited to Watch the Ceremony
Shang Hanlin and the young man didn't stay in the hotel for long. They left in just over two hours. Jiang Lai secretly followed him, watching the young man send Shang Hanlin home, and then drove away alone.
In order to find out the identity of the young man, Jiang Lai followed him all the way. After about half an hour, the Porsche finally stopped in front of a villa.
Looking up, this two-story Gothic villa is very luxurious, surrounded by green lawns, surrounded by a three-meter-high wall. After a few glances, Jiang Lai's toe tapped his toes, jumped up from the ground, and climbed straight over the wall.
In the lawn of the villa, there were five or six security personnel wandering around, patrolling the surroundings.
Seeing that there was no bunker nearby, Jianglai rose from the ground and stood in the air. He crossed the heads of the group of security personnel and came to the balcony of the top floor of the villa.
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, there was an idle bedroom, with the beds and sofas covered in plastic. It was obvious that no one had lived in it for a long time, and it was covered with thick dust everywhere.
After coming out of the room, I saw that the whole floor was pitch black and there was no one figure. I followed the stairs to the second floor, with the lights on below, and I could vaguely hear the chatter of someone.
"Young Master, do you need to wait for you to rest?"
"No need." A familiar voice sounded, and it was the young man Jiang Lai was following. "That Shang Hanlin is such a stupid woman who can't be stupid anymore. I coaxed her to obey her for a few words. No matter what I said, she wouldn't doubt it."
"Then what should we do next?"
"Of course, it was carried out according to the original plan. I found an opportunity to do Shang Nishang and help Shang Hanlin take office. As long as we firmly control Shang Hanlin, the Shang family will sooner or later become a vassal of our Wu family. By then, our Wu family will be able to break the situation that major forces have maintained for many years and firmly sit in the head of the four major families."
"It's still the young master's wise."
When Jiang Lai heard their conversation, he understood it immediately. If he guessed correctly, the Wu family should be one of the four major families. It seems that Fu Yu'an is right. The intrigue between these forces is very fierce in secret.
After finding out the identity of the young man, Jiang Lai did not stay for too long and left the villa directly.
...
Two days passed in a blink of an eye. Without Shang Nishang's forced life, Jiang Lai lived a very easy life and did nothing all day, just pretending to practice for a while.
"Jiang Hai!"
In the room, Jiang Lai, who was resting with his eyes closed, heard Cai Yan's shouts coming from outside, and immediately stood up to greet him, "Miss Cai, is there anything to ask me for?"
"Let's go with me to the office, my dad is looking for you."
When he arrived at Cai Zhang's office, Jiang Lai stood honestly, "Associate Director, I don't know what you are looking for me."
"Jiang Hai, that's right. We will go on a long trip in a few days. We were not going to bother you, but the owner of the museum specifically reminded you to go with you, so you should prepare well and set off together at that time."
Hearing this, Jiang Lai couldn't help but be stunned, "Deputy Master, where are we going?"
"Yanyan will tell you."
After coming out of the office, Jiang looked at Cai Yan beside him. The latter understood and said, "Have you ever heard of three major families?"
"Miss Cai, aren't you teasing me? I've just gotten into your world, so I don't know so much."
"The three major families are a very powerful force. This time, the three major families sent invitation letters to the major forces, asking everyone to go and watch the ceremony. It is said that it seems that it was because the new leader succeeded to the throne."
Jiang Lai nodded secretly. It turned out that it was for this matter. Because Hao Yun secretly reported the news, he knew everything about the three major families. He heard from Hao Yun that Hailiusha was elected by the three elders and she was in charge of the three major families. When he first learned the news, he was indeed surprised. Who would have thought that this woman would actually come to this point.
When his mind was turned around, he asked in confusion: "Ms. Cai, since he was watching the ceremony, why did the owner insist on letting me go with him?"
"I don't know this, but you should feel honored. No one in our martial arts hall can get the special treatment of the owner like you."
"Miss Cai, only the owner of the Shang family is the representative?"
Cai Yan nodded, "This is the care of the owner of the family. The disputes within the Shang family are too fierce. Our owner of the library doesn't like to participate in this kind of struggle the most, so find a reason to let her leave far away so that she can avoid being missed."
Although Jiang Lai was a little reluctant, the owner of the museum said, and he could not refuse to obey.
Two days passed quickly. Early in the morning, Jiang Lai stood at the door of the martial arts hall with a luggage bag and waited quietly. More than ten minutes later, a Mercedes-Benz RV slowly drove over and stopped in front of him.
When I got into the car, I saw Shang Nishang, Cai Zhang and Cai Yan were all there. However, Shang Nishang had a cold expression, and didn't even look at him, and his eyes kept staring out the window.
After saying hello, Jiang Lai sat beside Cai Yan, closing his eyes to rest.
It is about 400 kilometers from Qinzhou City to Jiangzhou. After more than three hours of driving, at noon, the group finally arrived at their destination.
When he arrived at the hotel designated by the three major families, he got off the bus and immediately received the reception staff from the three major families came forward to greet him. Jiang Lai glanced at him and couldn't help but feel happy. He didn't expect that he was still an acquaintance, which was Hao Yun.
After observing for a few seconds, Jiang Lai was very satisfied. Although he had not seen each other for several months, Hao Yun made great progress and has now broken through the semi-saint realm. I believe the treasures he obtained from the treasure house played a great role. No wonder the three major families will send him to be responsible for the reception work this time. With his performance, it must have been gradually taken seriously in the three major families.
In order to receive guests who came to watch the ceremony, the three major families booked the entire hotel, and Jianglai and the four of them were assigned to the guest rooms on the third floor. After a short rest, Cai Yan knocked on Jianglai's room door and reminded: "My father and I have something to do. Stay in the hotel and don't walk around. People from all forces gather here. If something happens accidentally, it will be very troublesome."
"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for the owner to do it."
After watching Cai Yan leave, Jiang Lai walked to the window and looked at the traffic at the hotel door. This time, the three major families acted very high-profile, and almost all the Taoist forces invited them. Not only the Yi family, but also the Lingyan Sect, Songyin Sect, Bahuang Sect and Wulan Sect were present.
No wonder Cai Yan specifically reminded herself before leaving that so many forces in the sect gather here, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no friction. After all, many forces are not harmonious, and it is probably not easy to let them live peacefully under the same roof.
While thinking, a "dong dong dong" knock suddenly came from outside the door.
Jiang Lai got up and opened the door, and saw Shang Nishang standing at the door with a cold face.
