Zhao Yaowu, the Taizong of Xia, was very sad these days. His most valued son unexpectedly died in the border battle with Western Chu.

This is not good news for a big family. The successor who was cultivated with great effort died just like that. It is not so easy to find a replacement.

Moreover, the death of his son also brought a certain crisis to the Zhao family, not from outside, but from within. The struggle for power and profit is the same for big families.

Looking at his grandson who was performing hard, Zhao Yaowu felt helpless in his heart. This man has not been buried yet, and the struggle of the younger generation has already begun.

Zhao Jun looked sad on the surface at this moment, but he was secretly happy in his heart. His father died in the battle, and he was the eldest son of the Zhao family. The power of the Zhao family was about to fall on him. As for other brothers, they had no qualifications to fight with him at all.

What kind of family affection is irrelevant compared to power. This is also the idea of ​​a large part of the aristocratic families. They only have interests in their eyes, which is also in line with the concept of this world.

"Who are you? Didn't you see my Zhao family doing things? Why don't you give in?"

Zhao Jun, who was in a state of extreme arrogance, suddenly saw Long Tian and his group of dozens of people, who actually ignored the Zhao family's funeral and went up the mountain directly.

Zhao Jun was immediately angry. This was completely not taking the Zhao family and his Zhao Jun seriously.

"Stop them for me."

Zhao Jun angrily led a group of lackeys to stop Long Tian and his group.

Long Tian looked at the arrogant Zhao Jun. This guy was even more arrogant than himself. He was just borrowing the road to the mountain and had nothing to do with them. This guy was so angry, as if he had killed his family members.

A group of servants of only the fifth and sixth ranks, the people around Long Tian could not move at all, and the dozen Yanyun cavalry accompanying them stopped the other side.

The Yanyun cavalry were all ninth-rank cultivation. The powerful momentum immediately suppressed Zhao Jun, but soon, Zhao Jun reacted. The strength of the Zhao family was his confidence.

Moreover, almost all the people of the Zhao family and even those who are related to the Zhao family are here today. If the momentum is weakened, it is undoubtedly a foolish dream for Zhao Jun to take over the Zhao family.

"How dare you be rude at my Zhao family's funeral."

Zhao Jun knew that the masters of the Zhao family were all present, and he was not afraid of them at all.

Moreover, you must have good eyesight to survive in the capital. These people are all strangers, and they are not within the scope of the people Zhao Jun summarized as not to be provoked.

Zhao Jun was just like a jumping clown, performing on his own. Long Tian and his party ignored him at all. The two sides were not on the same level and did not even have the qualifications to talk.

"How dare you, step down."

"Your subordinate Zhao Yaowu, pays homage to His Royal Highness the Northern King."

Zhao Yaowu, who discovered the dispute, glanced casually, but found that the person who came was actually Long Tian, ​​and was really shocked.

Zhao Yaowu hurried over. The Zhao family was indeed strong. Within the scope of Kyoto, Zhao Yaowu also believed that Long Tian could not do anything to the Zhao family.

However, Long Tian is the King of the North, who actually controls the North Border and Zongzhou. He is one of the strongest princes in Xia State. Once offended, there will be no shortage of troubles.

Especially since Xia State is about to fall into chaos, no one can predict how Xia State will go in the future. It would be a stupid act to make enemies with the King of the North at this time.

"It turns out to be Lord Taizong. I want to pay tribute to my father. I don't know why your Zhao family is blocking the way."

Cao Zhengchun quickly reported the identity of this person.

Long Tian was not arrogant, but simply stated a fact.

"Your Highness, I am very sorry. I am ignorant and bumped into you."

"Kneel down and apologize to you."

Zhao Yaowu immediately pulled Zhao Jun over and kicked him in the leg, forcing him to kneel down.

Zhao Jun was very unconvinced. Of course he knew who Long Tian was. This guy was the same age as him. Why should he kneel down and apologize?

This is Kyoto, not the North Border. What can Long Tian do?

Seeing Zhao Jun's unconvinced look, Long Tian could probably guess what he was thinking, but Long Tian didn't care. This guy's life would be like this.

"Zhao Jun, apologize to the prince, otherwise you will be punished by the family law."

Zhao Jun's look was of course seen by the cunning Zhao Yaowu. It was the family law, but it actually referred to the position of the head of the family. If Zhao Jun didn't get Long Tian's forgiveness today, he would be finished.

"Prince, I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you who came."

Zhao Jun understood and didn't care about his face. He apologized quickly. Compared with the position of the head of the family, nothing else mattered. When he took the power, he might have a chance to avenge today's humiliation.

"Forget it, Lord Zhao, please accept my condolences. I have to go to see my father, so I won't stay."

Long Tian didn't pursue it. It was not worth confronting a big family in Kyoto for such a small matter.

"Slow down, Prince."

Zhao Yaowu didn't say much. Long Tian was in an awkward situation now, and the Zhao family didn'tI want to get involved too much, after all, there are too many eyes on the scene.

But often some things are destined, and you can't hide from them.

Long Tian and his party continued to go up the mountain, and soon arrived at the Wuyuan Mountain District B Cemetery.

Wuyuan Mountain Cemetery is divided into four areas, A, B, C, and D. Almost all of them are the most famous figures in Xia State.

Especially in District A, they are all the people who have made the most outstanding contributions to Xia State.

Logically speaking, Long Dao, as a prince, died in battle for Xia State, and should enjoy the highest standards and be buried in District A.

However, in order to reduce the power of the vassal states and warn the various princes, the old emperor buried Long Dao in District B as an exception.

This move is obviously against the rules, but the old emperor insisted on doing so despite the opposition of his ministers. Long Dao had no power in Kyoto during his lifetime, so naturally no one spoke for him.

"What's going on? Who are those people?"

In the distance, a group of people were busy there, and some people wanted to step forward to stop them, but they were obviously not opponents, and both sides had disputes.

This is something that is hard to happen in a cemetery.

"No, Your Majesty, that's the cemetery of the previous king."

Jia Xu glanced to one side and suddenly shouted.

It turned out that there was more than one dispute in the cemetery in Wuyuan Mountain District B at this time.

"Come on, take everyone down."

Long Tian was furious when he heard it and immediately gave orders.

Yanyunqi rushed up quickly and knocked down everyone in a few seconds.

Long Tian stepped forward quickly and looked at the cemetery that was almost destroyed. He was relieved. If he hadn't come today, I'm afraid that the last place where his cheap father stayed would have been destroyed.

"Cao Zhengchun, find out their origins and purpose."

Long Tian knelt in front of Long Dao's tombstone and gave orders with a gloomy face.

Soon, Cao Zhengchun came back.

"Your Majesty, it was done by the Zhao family."

When Long Tian heard it, he was extremely puzzled. Although the Zhao family had some power in Kyoto, they were not the top ones. How dare they do this?

Let alone Long Dao's tomb, even if it was the others, which one of them didn't have a great background? How dare the Zhao family confront so many forces like this?

Did the Zhao family not consider the consequences when doing things?
