“The food in this Yin Posthouse is really like pig feed.”The young man took a bite and spat out the food in his mouth with a disgusted expression. He then took a sip of water.

Beside him, the old man did not say anything but stood respectfully at the side, waiting for the young man to eat.

The old man’s hands were tucked into his sleeves, and his sleeves bulged.

“Elder Sun, how long will it take for us to reach Wind Chimes Manor?”The young man said impatiently, “I’m already a little tired of this long journey.”

When Elder Sun heard the young man’s words, he took a step forward and bowed. “Young Master, we will arrive in three days. The food in the Yin Posthouse is too poor. Why don’t this old servant go to the carriage and bring some for Young Master?”

The young man waved his hand and said,” No need. I’ve already felt disgusted after eating the food here. By the way, is the Ye family sure that they’ve found a good candidate for me?””

Elder Sun nodded and said,” I heard that the woman’s name is Ye Yu. She’s the elite of the Ye family’s current generation of elites. She’s also specially prepared for the young master. Her goal is also to get close to our Kong family’s power.””

The young man heard this and said,” If I didn’t hear that the women of the Ye family are very beautiful, I wouldn’t have accepted their gift. This young master wants these things. They have everything.””

Old Sun quickly nodded in agreement.

At this time, the conversation box was opened. Elder Sun saw that the opportunity was better, so he took this opportunity to talk about another matter.

“Young Master, on this trip to Wind Chime Manor, we might meet someone called Xu Bai. If possible, don’t get into a conflict with him.”Elder Sun said slowly.

Kong Xu, who was addressed as Young Master, nodded.

“I have naturally heard of his name, so I naturally won’t have any conflict with him.”

Elder Sun nodded and did not say anything else.

Kong Xu took another sip of water to wash away the taste in his mouth. He sized up Elder Sun from head to toe, and an unnoticeable look flashed across his eyes.

This expression was extremely complicated, and it contained a very subtle disgust.

The Kong family was a prestigious family in the capital. The head of the Kong family was an official in the Imperial City. In terms of status, he was about the same as a prefecture magistrate.

Jing Prefecture said. Out of these four names, only Jing did not have an order.

What a joke, there was only one Jing, how could there be a Ling?

But the officials in the capital were not ordinary people.

For example, his Kong family’s status was equivalent to a state magistrate.

This trip was because the Ye family wanted to curry favor with his family, so they asked him to come here specially to pick a qualified woman.

Speaking of his position, it was very awkward in the Kong family.

He was not a legitimate son, but a concubine. He had an elder brother above him, and his relationship with his brother was difficult to explain in a few words.

As an official of the capital, the Kong family had been a scholar since childhood. They had started from an ordinary academy in Jiangnan Road, but they had come to this point. The Kong family had climbed from the bottom to the present.

The Kong family, who had climbed up from the bottom, had somehow gone crazy and placed more importance on the so-called status.

For example, his elder brother was usually at odds with him, but he had no choice. After all, in terms of status, it was reasonable for his elder brother to inherit the position.

Fortunately, the head of the Kong family cared about his reputation and treated him well. Even this trip to Wind Chime Manor was arranged by the head of the Kong family.

However, Kong Xu knew very well that this so-called arrangement had completely set his position so that he would not have any thoughts of competing with his big brother.

Even Elder Sun was a bodyguard arranged by the family head.

A Peak Rank-2 expert was good at bare-handed martial arts.

They were bodyguards, but they were more of a form of surveillance.

If he really had this thought, he would probably end up in a very miserable state.

Forget about the father-son relationship, Kong Xu knew his father very well. He was able to become a rich young master because he cared about his reputation.

It was precisely because he cared about his reputation that he couldn’t let him be the head of the family. Otherwise, if word got out that he had been taken over by a concubine, the Kong family head would probably lose face.

Of course, in Kong Xu’s view, only those with virtue could make the family flourish and prosper.

However, Master Kong was such a person. Moreover, his elder brother was not a useless trash, so his position was especially awkward now.

Accepting his father’s arrangement, taking in a woman from the Wind Chime Manor’s Ye family, and honestly living the life of a rich young master, this seemed quite good.

However, Kong Xu knew very well that this state would not last for long. Once his elder brother became the head of the family, his position might really be in danger.

His big brother was not easy to deal with. When the time came, he would arrange everything for him.

“So.. I’m trying to find a way out for myself. It’s all because you forced me.”Kong Xu thought to himself as he looked at Elder Sun.

At this moment, the Yin Posthouse was especially quiet.

It was a county Yin Posthouse, and the area here was very small, so there were not many people.

Just as Kong Xu and the others were planning to rest for a while more, the sound of hurried horse hooves suddenly rang out.

Kong Xu put down the cup in his hand and looked in the direction of the voice, frowning.

A man and a woman arrived on a fast horse. The woman was covered with a veil, so her face could not be seen clearly. After the man tied the fast horse to the stable, he hugged the woman’s waist and took her down.historical

Next to the couple was a man dressed in black. His face and gender could not be seen clearly. There was an ordinary knife hanging from his waist..
