If Tongtian Sect was just Tongtian Sect, no matter how much Zhang Tie's troubles in Youzhou were ten times greater, the governor might not come to Youzhou again for such a small matter, but Zhang Tie lifted the layer inside Tongtian Sect. With the painting skin of "Demon Race", things are completely different...

In fact, this incident was the major event that really shocked Taixia.

On September 4th, Lord Governor's flying boat landed directly on Baihu Terrace.

Zhang Taixuan, Zhang Tie, Elder Mu Yu and a group of officials from Youzhou City were all at Baihu Terrace to welcome the Governor.

Following Zhang Tie was Zhu Dabiao, the grandson of the governor of Yanzhou.

After being released from prison, only a few days later, Zhu Dabiao's face became smooth again. This guy was wearing a white bearskin coat and a silver mink scarf around his neck. He stood like a fat ball. Beside Zhang Tie, his little face turned red from the cold.

The news that Zhang Tie defeated the Tongtian Sect in Youzhou spread all over the world, but neither the main news nor the gossip mentioned Zhu Dabiao.

This is a great favor. If the grandson of the governor of Yanzhou falls into the hands of the Tongtian Sect and the Demon Clan, no matter what the outcome is, just the public opinion in the world can make the Zhu family of Yanzhou lose face. Use it to stir up some waves. That might cause a lot of troubles.

Taixia is not a paradise, this is Zhang Tie's biggest feeling during the few months he returned to Taixia.

The flying boat landed slowly. Everyone on the ground was shocked. Only Zhu Dabiao beside Zhang Tie sighed quietly.

"What? Are you unhappy?" Zhang Tie turned his head and asked him.

These days, Zhu Dabiao has been living in Tingwei Temple. This guy is afraid of being imprisoned. Now it seems that no place in Youzhou City is safe. According to him, he originally lived in a luxurious hotel in Youzhou. He didn't know why, but one day he woke up and found himself in the dungeon of Jiang Mansion. He fell from heaven to hell in an instant, and the few guards following him were definitely in danger. After such an experience, if he was asked to stay in other hotels and apartments in Youzhou City, this guy would not be beaten to death. go.

Tingwei Temple has also been clearing out the remaining poison of Tongtian Sect in the past few days. As the kidnapped party, Zhu Dabiao has been in contact with that old bastard several times, so he still knows something. So he stayed in Tingwei Temple to record his confession, and with some cooperation, Tingwei Temple also hid him in the snow for a few days to get over the limelight.

During these few days in Tingwei Temple. However, Zhu Dabiao and Zhang Tie became very familiar with each other, and they seemed to be quite congenial, and the two of them became less and less worried about talking to each other.

At this time, I heard Zhang Tie's question. Zhu Dabiao just sighed with a sad face, "You may not believe it. I haven't seen this grandpa for five or six years. When I have grown up, I may have said less than twenty words to him. If it hadn't been for me If something happens in Youzhou, he may not even be able to remember whether he has a grandson like me."

"Ah, that's not the case, is it?" Zhang Tie blinked. With the family atmosphere in his family, he really couldn't imagine how the things Zhu Dabiao said could exist in a family.

"My grandfather has 87 children. My father ranks 63rd in the family. He is not outstanding among uncles. In addition to my mother, my father also has more than 20 aunts. My mother is My father is the 14th among the women, and is only average. When it comes to my generation, there are 34 brothers and sisters in my family alone. Among these 34, I am the 21st, and I am doing average. Including my father's family, by the time I left Youzhou last year, my grandfather had 543 grandchildren, and there were more than 240 other grandchildren and granddaughters. This number is still increasing every year. Among them, you say I am the onion." Zhu Dabiao rubbed his face, "The old guy is the governor of Youzhou. Every day he is either dealing with official duties or practicing in seclusion. When I grow up, I have less than twenty opportunities to see the old guy. , and most of them we met during the Chinese New Year or ancestor worship in the family. The first time the old man talked to me was when I was six years old. During the ancestor worship that year, he asked me in the ancestral hall at home. What's your name? When he spoke to me for the second time, I was already twelve years old and had awakened the first ancestral bloodline..."

Old thing? Hearing this "honorific title" from Zhu Dabiao's mouth, Zhang Tie was speechless, and the content of his words made Zhang Tie understand why family ties among this wealthy family were indifferent.

This is not indifferent. No matter who is giving birth to eighty or ninety sons, it is impossible to take care of everyone. The knight is very powerful, but no matter how powerful the knight is, he only has twenty-four in a day. hours, it is impossible to change the time to a few more hours, unless of course the whole family lives in the Tower of Time, that is another story. Sitting in a position like the governor of Yanzhou, a person has to deal with official duties and not delay his cultivation. He also has to eat, drink and have sex every day. Occasionally, he has to be busy with the issue of inheriting the family line or allowing himself to take a breather. He can free up one day at home. How much time is there? This time is divided into eighty or ninety parts. How much is each part? When these eighty-nine people bloom again, how much attention will those smaller and more tender branches and leaves get

Zhang Tie knew that what Zhu Dabiao said was not an individual manifestation, but a common phenomenon among the wealthy families in Taixia. It is too normal and common for a master knight among wealthy families to have dozens or hundreds of children. At that time, in many families, the continuation of the knight's bloodline was no longer just a problem for that individual knight, but rose to the level of the reproduction of the entire family's bloodline. Especially the knights who had awakened some of their ancestral bloodlines, and even continued the family line. Taking over the important responsibility of the family is no joke.

In fact, within a few months of settling down in Taixia, Zhang Tie had slowly felt the pressure from Huaiyuantang, and the elders in the hall had begun to make insidious remarks. Let Zhang Tie marry, take concubines, and create many people. If it weren't for Zhang Tie, he would already be an elder in the hall, with a prominent position. Moreover, for having made great contributions to Huaiyuantang in the war of governorship, Zhang Tie might be forced to have a bunch of women thrown in by the elders of Huaiyuantang to defeat the overlord.

"Didn't you just buy more than 300,000 square kilometers of land in Youzhou? That's a lot of money, more than 20 million gold coins at least. You won't be so miserable at home, right?" Zhang Tie asked.

The grade of the land Zhu Dabiao bought was more remote than the land Zhang Tie bought next to Yanghe County, so the price was cheaper. Similarly, looking at the sign of Yanzhou Governor Sun Tzu, Youzhou Sinong Mansion Zhu Dabiao has been given the greatest discount.

The flying boat of the Lord Supervisor. Having already landed dozens of meters above the ground, Zhang Tie walked forward as he followed Zhang Taixuan and Elder Mu Yu.

"My mother has only one son like me. The money is the private money my mother has saved for most of her life, as well as the money saved by several brothers and friends from the same clan with whom I have made friends. My grandfather and several uncles also supported me. A little bit more, Yanzhou Bank also loaned me some money based on the sign of my grandson, the governor, to get such a sum together!" At this point, Zhu Dabiao quietly wiped his fingers with the pepper water he had prepared. Then use your fingers to rub it under your eyelids. Suddenly his eyes were red and tears were streaming down his face, "In order to take this chance, I even defrauded my little sister of all the New Year's money she had saved over the years. Do you think it's easy for me? In order to avoid debts, my family didn't even dare to celebrate the New Year this year. I'm back… "

Holy shit! This bastard is really good at cheating a little girl out of her lucky money to make investments. I’m really convinced!

The door to the flying boat was opened, and the people inside hadn't even come out yet. Zhu Dabiao just wailed, as if he had gone through hardships and suffered great grievances. With the posture of a baby swallow returning to its nest, she rushed towards that direction, "Grandpa..."

Several figures appeared at the door of the flying boat. One of them was the black-faced governor of the Northeast Governor's Mansion. Next to the governor, there was another person with a high salary and a pair of temples as white as snow. It was Yan. Zhu Tong, the governor of the state. Behind the two people were the two young knights Zhang Tie saw for the first time by the river.

"Meet the Governor!"

A group of officials from Youzhou paid a visit to Governor Cheng, while Zhu Dabiao hugged Zhu Tong and burst into tears, "Grandpa... my grandson's military power is low, and he unfortunately fell into the clutches of the devil this time, but fortunately, his grandson is always Thinking of your teachings to me since I was a child, Grandpa, you have not brought shame to our Zhu family. I would rather die than agree to the old bastard's request and never betray Taixia... My grandson was already determined to die and was ready to sacrifice his life for righteousness. Unexpectedly, At the critical moment, he was saved by Youzhou Tingwei... "

Zhu Tong originally had a straight face, but when he heard his grandson crying like this, his expression relaxed slightly.

Zhu Tong looked directly at Zhang Tie.

"When we found Mr. Zhu, he was imprisoned in the dungeon by the shadow demons of the Tongtian Sect. He was dressed in rags and tortured. However, Mr. Zhu would rather die than surrender. He was upright and upright. He even cursed the old thief in the dungeon, which is admirable! "Zhang Tie said seriously.

Although these words have a slight reputation, they are basically the same, and Zhang Tie is not lying. As for the subsequent ones, they have nothing to do with the important matter, so Zhang Tie will not say more. Although Zhu Dabiao came from a wealthy family, he was able to withstand critical moments and did not give in. This is why Zhang Tie was able to get along with Mr. Zhu. If Zhu Dabiao was a softie and suffered major losses, even if he could be rescued, Zhang Tie would not be able to get along with him. He just threw him aside and left him to fend for himself. Why would such a person live in Tingwei Temple

After listening to Zhang Tie's words, Governor Zhu's expression completely softened, and he patted Zhu Dabiao who was crying, "Over the years, grandpa has not paid enough attention to you, but he has wronged you. This time about the Youzhou incident, But it also made me see that you still have some of the blood of a Taixia man. Although your strength is hard to cultivate, your bones are still strong, not bad, not bad... "

In Cardinal Baihutai's stronghold, facing Governor Cheng, Zhang Tie's words shocked the Governor.

"Master Governor, I intend to resign from the position of Youzhou Tingwei!"
