Vol 5 Chapter 17: Su Family

Half a month later, Su Shousi rushed to Xuanjing with Chi Hai in a hurry.
Before the situation became clear, Zong Ya and others remained in Wushan, not in a hurry to enter Xuanjing to support Chen Xun.
From Su Shousi's side, Chen Xun knew that Su Yuan, the ancestor of the Su family, was actually persecuted by his clansman, and he was angrily led his family and tribe to leave Yuzhou.
Su Yuan has no foothold in Yunzhou, so he can only lead his tribe to go out of Tushan to compete with the Wumeng tribe for living space.
A thousand years have passed, and many things have gone wrong.
The family of Su Yuan who persecuted Su Yuan in the past was squeezed out of Yuzhou by Su Muchen and Su Junchen brothers and moved to Southern Xinjiang to establish a foothold. In Southern Xinjiang, they can only be regarded as an insignificant family.
"The ancestors remembered this old thing very deeply when they were alive," Su Shousi said slowly, standing in front of the lion hump north cliff in front of the wind, "but to me, it is an old thing that has disappeared. The main clan is in Xuanjing. Stand on your feet, stand up and down, and don't be disturbed by these old things."
Chen Xun nodded and said, "My reputation in Xuanjing is not that good. Those who have deep roots in the sect and aristocratic clan, most of them look down on me. If there is no suitable grasper, I can easily Will be isolated; when True Monarch Scarlet Eyebrows returns to Xuanjing, the situation will become more passive. The Qing Palace and Yuzhou Su Family, no matter what their minds, can indeed provide us with a chance."
Su Shousi nodded and said: "Don't say Qing Wang Jiang Lan, Yuzhou Su clan, as the thirty-six generals who followed Emperor Xi Wu to conquer the Ji clan back then, his foundation in Xuanjing must be better than Chimeizhen Lord."
Chen Xun has not left the lion hump for half a month in Xuanjing, but his consciousness is magnificent and magnificent, and the weak aura around three or four hundred miles can't escape his consciousness.
From the gossip of servants and stewards in nearby mansions, Chen Xun has a better understanding of Xuan Jing's situation.
At this time, the Su clan in Yuzhou, with Su Muchen as the sovereign.
Su Muchen only cultivated in the late Yuan Dan realm. Among the descendants of the thirty-six generals, there were many who were stronger than him. Even within the Yuzhou Su clan, there were many strong Dharma realm.
Su Muchen's ability to preside over Yuzhou affairs is indeed an extraordinary strategy; in addition, his younger brother Su Junchen is exceptionally talented and has long been the peak power of Dharma Realm. It is said that Yunzhou will be the most successful in the next few hundred years. One of the strong men who wish to advance to the realm of heaven and human.
Su Junchen is also the commander of the Shenwei Army, and he is a powerful figure in Cetian Palace.
Ce Tianfu is headed by the five monarchs and recruits disciples from all sects to serve as school lieutenants, generals, and doctors. Most of them have false titles and it is difficult to control real power.
The real power of Ce Tianfu, especially the power of the Shenwei, Shenfeng, etc., is almost all hereditary control by the direct descendants of the 36 generals who followed Emperor Xiwu to conquer the Ji family.
The commanders of the Shenwei Army and the Shenfeng Army are usually controlled by the five monarchs, and they have considerable independence. The low-level officers are almost all from the Xuanmen Taoist established by the thirty-six gods and generals. The pawns also came from the 36 big counties outside of Xuanjing, and basically they would only serve the descendants of the 36 gods.
At this time, Chen Xun was given the title of General Zuo Duwei, and it was only a false title. If he could be directly incorporated into the Shenwei Army controlled by the Su clan, he would be able to minimize Chunling Jun and Red Eyebrow’s interference.
And Qing Wang Jiang Lan's intention to win was the same.
Thinking of this, Chen Xun asked Su Shousi: "Tell me, why does King Qing hope that I can be directly incorporated into the Shenwei Army?"
Su Shousi stood on the north cliff of the lion hump, with his wide robe sleeves floating in the wind, and his brows frowned. He stared at the ridges of Qianlong Peak for a while, and said: "I have been to Xuanjing a few years ago, but I did not follow When Su Muchen contacted them, they heard some rumors about Emperor Xiwu. Perhaps King Qing’s actions at this time were related to this rumors..."
"Oh," Chen Xun asked, "What rumor?"
"Emperor Xi Wu hasn't shown up for almost five hundred years. Many of Yunzhou's affairs are handled by the monarchs of Cetian Palace. It is said that this is because Emperor Xi Wu has already mastered the Dao and entered Nirvana." Su Shousi said. .
"It is indeed very possible," Chen Xun thought about the moment, nodded and said, "Haoran Heavenly Dao does not matter whether Emperor Xi Wu is the son of heaven who rules Yunzhou or not, whoever wants to be in Yunzhou after entering Nirvana To show up in public, first of all, you can deal with the blast of Thunder Tribulation. Emperor Xi Wu hasn't shown up in these years, and usually hides in the Tianjun Great World to practice."
"If Emperor Xi Wu stays in the world of Tianjun, it is considered to be returning to the Jiang family," Su Shousi said. "However, even if Emperor Xi Wu wins the support of the Jiang family and successfully expels the Ji family to rule Yunzhou, it will always be the Jiang family. A side branch of Yunzhou left by the royal family. Emperor Xiwu wants to gain a foothold in the world of Tianjun where the strong are like forests. It is no easy task, and will even be excluded from the Jiang royal family..."
Chen Xun nodded, understanding what Su Shousi wanted to say.
The Jiang family who dominated the Tianjun world can be traced back to the ancient gods and demons. In some Yunzhou documents, it is called the Jiang family. The Yunzhou Jiang family can only be regarded as a by-line of the ancient Jiang family. .
The relationship here is the same as the Su clan of Canglan and the Su clan of Yuzhou. The relationship is usually extremely alienated, and it can even be said to be old and dead. However, because Emperor Xi Wu drove the Jiang family out of Yunzhou four thousand years ago Ji Clan was called Emperor Yunzhou, and thus gained the attention of the Jiang clan.
As a mid-thousand world, Yunzhou restricts the long-term stay of the strong above the Heaven and Human Realm. After Emperor Xi Wu breaks through the Heaven and Human Realm and enters the Nirvana Realm, if he does not want to give up his secular power, he has only two choices. One is to extract from Yunzhou A large number of elites helped him to open up territory in the world of Tianjun, and another one was to return to the Jiang family and obtain a corresponding position within the Jiang family.
Judging from the current situation, Emperor Xiwu is more likely to have two things proceeding at the same time.
Su Shousi continued his speculation: "Over the years, the 36 armies of Cetian Palace have seldom interfered in the affairs of various domains. They should be transferred to the Tianjun Great World by Emperor Xi Wu in turn. Emperor Xiwu has a firm foothold in the Tianjun Great World, and Yunzhou's emperor's position is bound to be passed on to others..."
Chen Xun nodded. Before True Monarch Scarlet Eyebrows, Cetian Mansion had only four true princes of heaven and human realm, and his strength was not even stronger than that of Longmen Zong. If Emperor Xi Wu had this strength, he would fight for it. With the strength of milk, it is impossible to defeat Ji and drive out of Yunzhou.
Obviously, a large number of powerful people in Cetian Palace have been transferred into the Tianjun Great World by Emperor Xiwu. Maybe the thirty-six gods and generals of that year still have many people living in the world.
Once Emperor Xi Wu gains a firm foothold in the Tianjun Great World and is recognized by the Jiang family, there is indeed no need to love the throne of Zhan Yunzhou anymore. Then the clouds that have hung over Xuanjing during this period are actually still there. Secretly wrestling for the continuation of the throne.
Thinking of this, Chen Xun smiled slightly: "It seems that it is time to visit King Qing again."
"Who is the emperor of Yunzhou, all the sects and the monarchs of Cetian Mansion must be able to speak, but in the end it is the opinion of Emperor Xiwu himself," Su Shousi said, "At this time Emperor Xiwu Taking turns to conquer the army into the world of Tianjun to open up stalemate and ground for him, which army won the most combat exploits, undoubtedly the greater the impact on Emperor Xiwu. King Qing did not want to be too dazzling, so as not to be left in the sky by Emperor Xiwu The Great World of Jun relies on his arms and cannot return to Yunzhou, but he fully supports the God Guards controlled by the Su family and also wants to gain more leverage in the fight for the throne."
Chen Xun said: "Emperor Xi Wu considers the succession of the throne, and will not only consider his personal preferences, but if he still wants Yunzhou to become his foothold in the world of Tianjun, he chooses the heir to the throne. One is For him to be able to master it completely, firstly, this person needs to have enough ability to master Yunzhou. It is really a headache."
After listening to Chen Xun's words, Su Shousi felt emotional: Those who are capable may not be willing to be controlled by others; those who are willing to be manipulated may not necessarily have the ability to master Yunzhou.
Emperor Xiwu has not established a new emperor for a long time, and it is not without reason that Yunzhou's authority is concentrated in Cetian Palace.

Through the birthday of the host of Yanling County, Chen Xun specially prepared the next big gift and paid a visit.
The lord of Yanling County was very much favored by Emperor Xiwu. On the birthday of Emperor Xiwu, Emperor Xiwu also sent an edict through Ce Tianfu to give banquets, spirit beasts, and treasures.
Qingwang Mansion is located deep in Dongzu Longshan Mountain, covering a very wide area. The Banquet Garden, which only hosts banquets, occupies an area of ​​ten miles and is located on the bank of a Linghu Lake.
Chen Xun and Su Shousi followed the welcoming steward and walked into the Qing Dynasty Mansion, and they saw that the spring willows along the shore of Linghu Lake were covered with colorful lights, reflecting the colorful lake and sky, as if a sunset glow spreading over ten miles long.
"The little days of King Qing are really moist, I really can't figure it out, why are you still trying to fight for the throne?" Chen Xun smiled and said with Su Shousi.
"What is Chen Zhenren laughing at?"
Chen Xun turned his head, and saw Qing Wang Jiang Lan, Cetian Palace Lord Jiang Mingtai, and an old man with long eyebrows in Songhe Robe, walking towards the lake.
"Chen Xun has seen King Qing, Mansion Jiang, and True Monarch Songhe," Chief Chen Xunji said, pointing at Su Shousi beside him, "Su Shousi is my Kuilong Pavilion elder, and he is also born in the Su clan of Yuzhou. , Chen Xungang smiled and said to him that he might be able to meet Su Sect Master Su Muchen today."
"Su Muchen's temper is slow, you may have to wait a while before you can see him." Qing Wang Jiang Lan smiled.
Jiang Mingtai just nodded slightly, he was considered a gift from Chen Xun and Su Shousi.
The old man with long eyebrows raised his brows and asked, "Mr Chen recognizes the little old man?"
"Chen Xun has never seen the true emperor, but he has heard of the true emperor Songhe, the master of the master of Yanling, who is the number one profoundxiu in the Central Region. Chen Xun has admired him for a long time." Chen Xun said.
"Haha, Yunxian slammed you in front of me. I didn't expect Chen Chen to wear high hats." Songhe Zhenjun laughed.
"Father, why did you all come here?" Jiang Yunxian flew over, staying on the shore of the lake, and said in a soft voice, his eyes turned to Chen Xun, and he suddenly became cold, with a flowery face. Yan Shuang seemed to be covering it, and asked in a cold voice, "Why are you here?"
"The county lord was offended a few days ago, and Chen Xun came here today to ask for the crime." Chen Xun smiled. As long as Qing Wang Jiang Lan doesn't drive him away, the Yanling county lord will not be in his eyes.
Jiang Yunxian saw his father frown slightly, his mind suddenly quieted, changed a smile, and said: "Since you are sincere to come to the house, this princess is not a narrow-minded person. Come with me. On the other side of the lake, don’t get together with boring people like my father and master."
Chen Xun looked to the other side of Linghu Lake. Jiang Bin and many strange young people in gorgeous clothes looked at this side indifferently, and smiled in their hearts. Even if it is Longtan Tiger's Lair, he dared to enter, why be afraid to have a banquet on the other side of the lake?
Chen Xun smiled at the Qing Dynasty King Jiang Lan and said: "The princess has an order, and Chen Xun is negligent on the side of the prince, Jiang Fujun, and Songhe Zhenjun." R1058
