Although Gong Yunhong's words were somewhat inappropriate, she was not wrong.
When things have developed to this point, even if they don't need to give an explanation to Lu Li, they still have to give an explanation to themselves.
Song Bocheng thought for a moment, and finally frowned and said, "That being said, but..."
"Although the power of the Tianbu cannot be called upon, we are not without any helpers."
Gong Yunhong chuckled: "Don't forget, what Lu Li really wants us to investigate is the hidden situation of the Yanzhou family. In this regard, the Gong family may not be worse than the Tianbu family."
"You mean... let the aristocratic family investigate the aristocratic family?"
Hearing this, Song Bocheng shook his head and said: "This is too risky. You have already attracted the attention of the Hou family by forcefully taking over the position of head of the Gong family. Now every move of the Gong family is under the supervision of all parties. How are you going to succeed? "
It's not that Song Bocheng doesn't believe in the energy of the Gong family.
To be able to become a subsidiary family of the Hou family and occupy a certain position, the Gong family is not just as simple as having a powerful master like Gong Yunhong.
However, even if the Gong family has extraordinary abilities and is now being targeted by the Hou family, every family in Yanzhou is also wary of the Gong family's actions. It is undoubtedly difficult to find out the news under such circumstances.
"I have my own way."
Gong Yunhong did not explain in detail, but the strong confidence in her words still made Song Bocheng a little stunned and couldn't help but hesitate.
Immediately, Gong Yunhong said: "Inform Lu Li as soon as possible about the affairs of the Tianbu. Although we cannot rely on the power of the Tianbu, we still need Lu Li's assistance for many things in the future."
There was no need for Gong Yunhong to remind him about this matter. Song Bocheng directly took out the jade slip and passed all the harvest here, including the shocking secret discovered today, to Lu Li.
…
In the palace of Prince Yan.
After Lu Li heard the news about Song Bocheng, his expression also changed.
Even though he had some guesses about Tianbu's current situation, he never expected that the situation had become so bad.
Nearly half of the top leaders of the Tianbu have rebelled and joined the Divine Religion. What are they going to do
However, Lu Li didn't say anything to Song Bocheng immediately. After learning that Song Bocheng might inherit the position of the second leader of the Tianbu, Lu Li knew that there might be no room for change in this matter.
After all, with Song Bocheng's methods, if his position is raised a little higher, he can do something.
So Lu Li calmed down for a moment and said to the jade slip: "I understand the matter. As for investigating the Yanzhou family... ask Grandmaster Gong, what kind of help does she need?"
The letter sent by Song Bocheng not only explained the matter, but also stated that although they could continue to follow up on the task of investigating the Yanzhou family, without the power of the Tianbu, it would still be troublesome to advance the matter.
So, they probably need a little help.
The light on the jade slip flickered, Song Bocheng was probably communicating with Gong Yunhong.
Lu Li did not urge her, but sat and waited for a moment. Song Bocheng's voice slowly sounded: "She needs your help to contain the Hou family and mediate between them."
"Is the Hou family still staring at the Gong family now?" Lu Li understood the implication of Song Bocheng's words and said, "In that case, leave this matter to me. Don't worry, go and investigate. Not only the Hou family, but also Yanzhou has If any company dares to obstruct it, there is no need to maintain the superficial balance."
"what you up to?"
Song Bocheng's voice on the other side of the jade slip was nervous, "You have to think clearly. Although the aristocratic family chooses to retreat now, it does not mean that they are really afraid of you."
Although the current situation in Yanzhou is very good, the Yan Palace has gradually regained many rights, and those aristocratic families have been extremely miserably managed by Lu Li, but this does not mean that those families are really afraid of the Yan Palace or Lu Li.
They just didn't want to conflict with Lu Li anymore.
Moreover, Lu Li has been very measured during this period of time, not only letting those aristocratic families learn a lesson, but not causing them to suffer severe backlash.
However, this does not mean that the Yan Palace can really suppress the entire Yanzhou family class.
"They will be afraid of me." When Lu Li heard this, he showed a meaningful smile and said calmly: "Leave this matter to me, you can just go ahead and do whatever you want. As for the Tianbu issue, don't act rashly yet."
"nature."
Song Bocheng understood the stakes. Even if Lu Li didn't say anything, he would still treat Tianbu's issues with caution.
"Then let's leave it like this for now. I'll handle it as soon as possible for the Aristocratic Family."
After Lu Li finished speaking, he extinguished the light on the jade slip and interrupted the conversation with Song Bocheng.
Immediately, Lu Li showed a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Has Tianbu actually been infiltrated by the divine religion to this extent?"
Frowning slightly, Lu Li murmured in a low voice.
He never expected that the big leader and the three leaders of the Tianbu were actually the great envoys of the divine religion.
He had similar suspicions before, thinking that the behavior of the Divine Religion and the Jitian Demon Kingdom against the Earth was too strange, and someone must be helping behind it. The fact that this person was able to find out the whereabouts of the three leaders of the Earth Department and high-level officials like Kunpeng shows that this person has great energy. If he is not a high-ranking person in the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom, there is a great possibility that he is someone in the Heaven Department. A senior executive.
Lu Li prefers the latter.
Because in the court of the Holy Kingdom of Tuntian, many important officials perform their own duties. Even if they are very powerful, they are just involved with the powerful people of the family. It is impossible to reach out to a special organization like Shenwei Division. Come.
After all, the whereabouts of the three leaders of the Earth Department are also secret. Even many killers of the Earth Department may not know it. However, the Divine Sect and the Jitian Demon Kingdom were able to find Chen Yang, Cao Hanbing, and Zheng An so accurately, which proves that the person who took action must be good at spying. The man of intelligence.
In the entire Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom, who is better at spying on intelligence than Tianbu
There is a traitor in Tianbu. Lu Li has already confirmed this matter.
But he didn't expect that this inner ghost didn't just come from the Twelve Supervisors or a certain messenger, but actually had its roots among the leaders!
Except for Xue Zhi, the other two leaders have already rebelled. These two people are completely able to bypass Xue Zhi and directly control the power of the Tianbu and control the entire Tianbu.
"If the information given by Xue Zhi is correct, it seems that the situation is more complicated than I thought."
Thinking of this, Lu Li frowned, groaned, stood up, and walked out of the room.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, two figures approached him.
"Master Lu."
It was Tan Long and Shi Yan who had been working with Lu Li in the Imperial Capital.
Half a month ago, these two people rushed to Yanzhou from the Imperial Capital, which solved the problem of Lu Li having no one around him to do chores.
After not seeing each other for several months, Tan Long was even more flattering than before. He lowered his eyebrows and said to Lu Li, "Sir, are you going to do something?"
Beside him, Shi Yan still had the same dull expression, but at this time, Shi Yan was already convinced of Lu Li. He was not as dull as before, at least he was a little more enlightened.
Lu Li looked at the two of them, his words of rejection came to his lips, and then he said: "You two... just follow me."
Although these two people have broken through to the Tongxuan realm, the current Tongxuan realm warriors are really not enough.
But thinking about what he had to do next, Lu Li decided to take them with him.
The two of them had been in Yanzhou Prince's Mansion for half a month and had been doing chores every day. Now they finally had the opportunity to go do some big things with Lu Li. How could they not cherish the opportunity? They naturally nodded and followed Lu Li respectfully.
Before leaving the mansion, Lu Li found a female guard and asked her to report to King Yan, saying that he was going to the Hou's mansion to pay a visit.
The female guard was stunned for a moment.
Not only her, but Tan Long and Shi Yan were also stunned on the spot.
They really didn't expect that Lu Li would actually go to the Hou Mansion for business.
The two looked at each other, a little worried and a little excited.
The worry is that with their strength, they may become a burden to Lu Li. What's exciting is that the 'big thing' they've been waiting for has finally arrived!
The Hou family is the number one family in Yanzhou!
Although the Hou family was extremely low-key during this period, and there was also a hint of internal struggle, since Mr. Hou disappeared, the former Yanzhou tiger seemed to have turned into a weak and sick beast, and was not only suppressed by the Yan Palace , even other families were quite interested, and frequently used small actions to test the Hou family's bottom line.
But... this still can't change the fact that the Hou family is the strongest family in Yanzhou!
