Chapter 613: Patriarch of the Li Family

Lin You was very happy that Yan Lie and his companions were able to advance to the tenth level.

After all, there have been frequent wars recently, and lords above level ten often fall. It is time to replenish them.

It just so happens that the founding ceremonies of the three of them are staggered, one on the day after tomorrow, and two on the day after tomorrow, so there is no need to worry about them clashing.

Lin You thought for a moment, then said to Xu Zhong beside him: "Go and tell the envoy who sent the invitation that I will go there in person when the time comes."

"yes!"

Xu Zhong responded and immediately took his leave.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Lin You put away the invitation and teleported into the palace to rest.

The next morning.

Lin You woke up early as usual.

However, he did not go to the border of the realm again. After all, they had just killed four eleventh-level lords, which attracted too much attention from the realm.

To be on the safe side, let's wait until the storm is over.

In addition, today is the founding day of the two principalities under him. As the two subordinates he trained, he still has to show up in person.

So very quickly.

With the help of his waiter, he got up, put on his usual going-out clothes, and left the palace and went outside.

"Your Majesty, the traveling team is ready and can set off at any time."

Xu Zhong, who was waiting outside, hurried forward and spoke respectfully.

In the square in front of the hall, a well-trained team of flying mounts were neatly arranged, surrounding an extremely luxurious royal sedan chair in the middle, as if they were afraid that others would not know that it was the king's trip.

Lin You glanced at the team and immediately waved his hand: "No need, I can go there by myself this time, just to see if those two guys are managing the principality well."

Except for Yanwu, Yin Tiange and the other five people, the sixth and seventh principalities were also supported by him from the monthly list.

These two people can be considered as elders in the kingdom.

He was the one who promoted him from the eighth rank, and he has been helping to manage local affairs.

So they simply allocated the land surrounding their territories to them to establish duchies, and let them recruit lords themselves.

Now, three days have passed since the joint recruitment began, and lords have basically descended on those newly built cities, so today was chosen to hold the founding ceremony.

It's a good opportunity to see how far it has developed.

After briefly explaining a few words to Xu Zhong, he tore open the space and disappeared on the spot.

And at this time.

The eastern part of the Holy Kingdom.

In the capital of Chaoyuan Principality, which was established not long ago, people are coming and going and there is a lot of traffic.

Forces large and small came from all directions and poured into the capital.

In the sky, there were also many teams and lords riding flying mounts, who also joined the teams on the street and gathered towards the temporary palace built in the center of the capital.

The whole city looked bustling, as if a grand event was being held.

"Hurry, hurry, put everything in place and make up for what's missing."

"His Majesty will be here soon, hurry up and decorate this place."

In the main hall inside the imperial palace, the newly crowned King of the Principality, Song Chaoyuan, kept shouting and directing the waiters who were coming and going.

Tables, chairs and flower pots were moving in and out, and there were busy figures everywhere.

At this time.

An old man in official uniform ran in hurriedly from outside.

"Your Majesty, the time has come. It's time to change your clothes."

"Oh, yes, yes, you must change your clothes and wash up quickly. His Majesty is coming in person this time, and we must not lose our manners."

Song Chaoyuan slapped his head and immediately followed the old man out of the palace in a hurry.

It was obviously he who was going to hold the founding ceremony, but he seemed to be more nervous than anyone else and wanted to do everything himself.

no way.

He had already received news that King Shengyou would come in person when the founding ceremony was held. He had no time to care about so many things, fearing that something might go wrong.

"That's right."

Before leaving, he turned around and looked at the old man.

"And those guests who are coming to congratulate us should be arriving soon. Send more people to greet them and don't neglect them."

Many of these guests were representatives from various forces, and some were his lord friends, so naturally they could not be ignored.

In short, there were so many things to do that everyone in Chaoyuan Principality was busy and exhausted, but they were also in pain and happy.

Because after today.

They are about to officially become a principality, and it's exciting just to think about it.

The other side.

Just when the entire palace was busy inside and outside.

On a small road outside the capital, a team of not-so-luxurious horse-drawn carriages moved slowly forward, heading towards the capital.

"Brother, do you think King Chaoyuan would be interested in a small family like ours?"

In the most spacious carriage in the middle of the team, a man spoke worriedly to the middle-aged man sitting opposite him.

"I don't know either. I can only go there first." The middle-aged man shook his head slightly. "The Chaoyuan Principality has just been established. It's a good time to make connections and show off. There will definitely be many big forces coming."

"If you want to gain a foothold in the principality, you can't miss this kind of event."

"If we are lucky enough to have a relationship with King Chao Yuan, then our Li family will be very successful in no time, and we can even develop our family business into the capital."

The man became more and more excited as he spoke, and there was even a look of longing in his eyes.

As a powerful family in the cities surrounding the capital, their greatest wish is to move their family to the capital.

Even if they only get a piece of the pie, it would be enough for them to gain a foothold and develop into one of the most powerful forces in the principality.

Especially now that the principality has just been established and order is not yet established.

It represents the word "opportunity" and is also a rare chance for them to meet the new king.

So apart from those well-known big forces, other small and medium-sized forces are also trying their best to show off in front of the new king.

If they are lucky enough to gain the favor of the new king, they can almost be said to soar to the sky and it is not impossible for them to become a major force in one fell swoop.

After all, there are too many forces in the capital.

It is complex and the competition is fierce.

It is not easy for outside forces to intervene. If they are not careful, they may be swallowed up without leaving anything behind.

So to seize this opportunity.

The two brothers set out yesterday, bringing with them many things to pack everywhere and rushing to the capital, just to meet the new king and get to know him.

That’s how the conversation just now happened.

These two people are none other than the current patriarch of the Li family, Li Xingtai, and the second patriarch, Li Xingrui.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"The one in front, get out of the way!"

Sudden.

Just as the two were discussing, a shout was heard outside.

The convoy jolted a bit and gradually slowed down.

"What's wrong?"

The Li Xingtai brothers leaned their heads out of the carriage and looked toward the front of the team.

"Reporting to the clan leader, there is a traveler blocking the convoy's way ahead. Steward Zhou is sending people to drive him away. It will be here soon."

A servant came trotting from the front to the carriage and reported respectfully.

This sudden change immediately caused more than a dozen young tribesmen sitting in other carriages at the back to stick their heads out, each with a look of confusion on their face.

They are all the younger generation of the Li family.

Li Xingtai specially brought them to the capital to see the world and to participate in the guard selection that was about to be held in the capital.

This is also an important opportunity for the family to establish a relationship with the capital.

After all, the selected guards are directly under the king. Even if one person can successfully join the guard, it will be an extremely happy thing for them.

It can only be said that in order to revitalize the family, Li Xingtai really took great pains and made sufficient preparations.

After hearing the servant's report, Li Xingtai's brows suddenly frowned.

"Didn't I tell you to be kind to others? If someone is blocking your way, just go around them. Why chase them away?"

"Go, tell Butler Zhou to stop interfering and hurry on your way."

"yes!"

After receiving the order, the servant did not dare to disobey and immediately ran towards the front of the team.

Seeing him disappear in the team, Li Xingtai was still a little worried, so he immediately lifted the door curtain and got off the carriage.

"Brother, what are you going to do? Just leave this small matter to the people below." Li Xingrui in the car said hurriedly.

"You don't understand. This is already the capital city. We may encounter people from other powerful forces and high-level warriors at any time. It's better to be careful."

Having said that, Li Xingtai walked towards the front of the team without looking back.

After a while, a figure was seen standing in front of the team, being stopped outside by a group of servants and guards.

This person is none other than this.

It was Lin You who had just teleported here and was planning to go to the capital of Chaoyuan Principality.

However, he didn't expect that just as he was about to continue teleporting, a convoy appeared behind him and slowly drove towards him.

That's how this scene happened.

"Did you come here from other cities?"

Lin You looked at the convoy in front of him with interest, but was not in a hurry to leave.

At this moment, Li Xingtai had also come to the front.

Seeing that he was surrounded, he immediately shouted, "Come back here! Let's see what you are doing. Do you really think this is our Li family's territory?"

After saying that, he immediately left the team and came to Lin You, his face full of apology.

"My dear, I'm so sorry. I didn't manage my men well and frightened you."

His words were sincere and didn't seem fake.

"Are you the leader of this convoy?"

Lin You looked at him silently and immediately saw his strength, which was only level eight, and should be a small or medium-sized force in the nearby city.

"Yes, my name is Li Xingtai, and I am the patriarch of the Li family in Huayuan City. May I know what your name is, little brother?"

He was in his twenties, didn't look very capable, was dressed fairly decently, and was alone.

He should be someone like them, having come from other places to seek refuge with relatives in the city.

As for strength.

Compared to the fact that the other party's realm is higher than his and he cannot detect it, Li Xingtai would rather believe that Lin You really has no strength.

After all, he is too young.

Moreover, the monsters around the capital have long been cleared out. As long as ordinary people don't run into the mountains and forests, even ordinary people can travel easily.

"My last name is Lin." Lin You responded indifferently.

"It turns out to be Brother Lin. I apologize for offending you just now." Li Xingtai had a kind face and did not show any contempt for Lin You.

Instead, he invited her warmly: "I see you are traveling alone, so you must be planning to go to the capital, right? If you don't mind, would you like to go with us?"
