In August of the 19769th year, "Bauhinia City" was the palace prime minister's residence.

Jing Hua followed Beckman into the hall and soon met the empire's prime minister Schmidt. The old man was slightly taller than ordinary people, had a moderate figure and a clear appearance. He had a faint smile on his face, as if everything was under control.

The prime minister held the title of Duke of the Empire, and Jing Hua bowed slightly to show respect. Schmidt replied with a smile, without any airs. He first invited Jing Hua and Beckman to take his seat, and then ordered the servants to serve the tea.

"Vissone Oriental, I specially invited General Rommel to come forward the day before yesterday, but I didn't expect that he was no match for you. According to the Empire Archives, you are less than 30 years old this year, but your cultivation is so amazing, which makes me very curious. Which senior is your teacher?"

"yes......"

Jing Hua put down his teacup and told the story of entering the "Wuding Holy Academy" and meeting an unknown master by chance. The story was compiled ups and downs, but after careful reminiscing, it is not difficult to find that there are no clear clues.

The "Yi Shenzong" has a large array on the periphery, so the apprentices cannot go out, let alone where they are. Therefore, the address of the "Wu Ding Holy Academy" has always been a mystery, and no apprentice can answer it.

Schmidt's face was no strange. After listening to the story, he nodded slightly and continued to ask: "Since you are practicing in the 'Holy Academy', have your master and disciple reached the 'Holy Level'?"

When exploring others' foundations, cultivation is a taboo, but the Prime Minister asked indifferently, as if everything was right.

Jing Hua was quite surprised. There was no doubt that Schmidt was an ordinary nobleman and had no use of cultivation at all. But he gave people a strange feeling and didn't know how to describe it. The old man seemed to be much "honest" than others, reaching an almost "pure" flavor, giving people inexplicable favor and trust.

"Shame... I attacked the 'Holy Level' three years ago, but I still failed to succeed, so my cultivation has stagnated and there has been no progress..."

Beckman didn't turn his face, not knowing what expression he should have.

Three years ago, Dongfang Wu was in his early twenties and was able to attack the "Holy Level" for the second time. What an amazing speed? The "Holy Level" of "Nalan World" has never exceeded five people. Now there are only three legendary-level strong men on the surface, and there is not one in the empire.

If Dongfangwu successfully attacks the "Holy Level", he will immediately become "the first person in the empire", and even His Majesty the Emperor will be treated with courtesy. Even if he has not succeeded yet, the "purple-robed strongman" under the "Holy Level" is still one level higher than Ronmel. No wonder he can win easily.

As a powerful man in the "purple robe", why did he even say "shamed"?

Beckman secretly mocked himself countless times by drinking tea. If the "Purple Robe Strong" needs to be ashamed, other low-level warriors can all hit the wall.

Schmidt showed a sincere smile on his face and raised his glass and signaled: "This is a gift from God to the Empire. Viscount Oriental, I believe you will succeed..."

After chatting for a few words, Beckman took the documents and Jing Hua checked them one by one. Schmidt collected the manuscripts into a book and put them in a gold-edged jade box. He handed the jade box to Beckman, got up and went to the center of the hall.

"Vissue Dongfang, I will meet His Majesty the Emperor in a few days. When he has used the seal and meets you in the palace, the Dongfang clan will become the hereditary count of the Empire. Recently, His Majesty the Emperor was disturbed by family affairs and was a little unhappy. You need to wait patiently for a while..."

Jing Hua knew that "playing meat" was coming. According to the information of the Adler family, the prime minister was honest and never accepted any property. However, when subordinate officials asked him to do things, he would often put forward conditions in a vague way.

The conditions and contents are similar, and they are all helpful to the important officials of the empire and the people to solve their problems. Subordinate officials must abide by the imperial laws and regulations and solve the above problems. Schmidt's actions can be said to be beneficial to the country and the people, because of this, the prime minister has a very high prestige in the country and almost surpasses the royal family.

"I don't know what's going on to disturb Your Majesty, maybe Dongfang can help..."

"Okay... His Majesty the Emperor must be very happy. It's not a big deal. Not far from the 'Bauhinia City', two nobles had a dispute. One was Si Bokang, the viscount of the Empire, who was like you, and the other was also a viscount. His eldest daughter, whose name was Edward Goth Edward, married into the palace and was His Majesty's beloved concubine. Things were a bit tricky... Beckman, you hand over the file to Viscount of the Orient."

Beckman bowed and replied, "Yes..."

*********************

To the south of the imperial capital, the residence of the Viscount Si clan.

In the secret room of the back garden, Yao Kuangtu and Si Bokang sat opposite each other, with a white silk on the middle table. The two heads of the family looked solemn and were stunned at the silk.

After a long time, Yao Kuangtu slowly spread the silk flat, revealing the small words on it.

"Brother, have you seen it clearly? Did you make any mistakes?"

"Beckman, Charles, Edmi, and François... They are all the confidant officials of the Prime Minister. Separation may be confused. If you get together, you will never make a mistake. With the verification these days, alas..."

"So, the 'saint' on the last list is Shi..."

"Shh!"

Si Bokang waved his hand to signal, then opened the window next to him. He looked around and closed the window tightly again.

"Kuangtu, please be gentle... That person is in the imperial capital and has a high position and power, we can't afford to offend..."

Yao Kuangtu shook his head. This is the Si Mansion, the secret room in the back garden, and the servants did not give any instructions not to get close. My brother was so afraid that the figures on the silk must be of great importance and could not be handled by the Viscount Mansion.

"Oh... Yao has caused trouble for his brother, and his opponent is involved in big names, this..."

Si Bokang shook his head and said, "Kuangtu, what is this? According to what you said, the 'New God Cult' is crazy, and even we have to interfere in worshiping our ancestors. You can't stay in the 'Shenlu Empire', and when the 'New God Cult' develops, we can't stay in the 'Shenlu Empire'..."

Yao Kuangtu smiled bitterly and said, "It may not be because of worshiping ancestors, hahaha... they said that the 'Supreme God' is the only god, and we cannot build a ancestral hall to worship evil gods... After all, it was just a few bishops who took a fancy to Yao's wealth, and the others were just excuses..."

Si Bokang sneered. The establishment of ancestral halls by the oriental families and worshiping ancestors for protection was a tradition that was continued in ancient times. What reason does the "New God Cult" interfere? My brother-in-law finally told the truth. The purpose of the church is gold, silver and treasures. As for the excuses, are you still afraid that you can't find them?

He raised his hands and walked a few steps back and forth in the secret room.

"Kuangtu, you're all the way, how did you escape?"

"I used some means to sacrifice most of my wealth, and there were several loyal servants. Alas... Even so, I was still blocked by the "New God Cult" in 'Baihua City'..."

Si Bokang was shocked: "Clog it up? Then you..."

"God blessed... I met a viscount in the hotel, who was also an Oriental. He claimed to be Dongfangwu, and it is said that he came from Xichui. Dongfang Viscount was powerful in combat, easily defeated dozens of paladins, and killed them clean..."

The Si family has lived in the imperial capital for a long time and does not know the name of "Dongfangwu". Judging from the brother-in-law's tone, the other party has never known each other and Yao family, so they can offend the "New God Cult" for help, which seems a bit strange.

He was about to continue asking, when the voices of servants came from outside.

"Master, there is a Viscount Dongfangwu outside the door asking for a visit..."
