Sect Master’s Immortal Journey Chapter 995: The meaning of getting married
In the following days, Meng Zhang temporarily stayed in this inn.
Although he has submitted a memorial to the General Affairs Department, he will not receive a reply within a short period of time.
The Dali Dynasty had such a vast territory and a large population under its rule, and there were endless government affairs to deal with every day.
The mere matter of a Taiyi Sect leader coming to pay a visit is of no importance at all.
His memorial was placed under a large pile of official documents, waiting for the middle and high-level officials to deal with it slowly.
When it is his turn, someone will naturally notify him.
As for when it will be his turn, it is unclear.
If you are unlucky, it is not uncommon to wait for three to five years.
Meng Zhang was not in a hurry and just thought he was relaxing in the capital.
He walked around the city, mainly inspecting the business environment here.
Shangjing City is indeed very prosperous, with many shops and merchants, and all kinds of cultivation materials are flowing here like sea water.
The amount of spiritual stones flowing between shops every day is an astronomical number.
If Meng Zhang wants to make a big purchase here, this is definitely a good place.
In terms of items, this place is far inferior to the Heavenly Palace. But the product level here is obviously more suitable for Taiyimen.
After careful observation, Meng Zhang finally gave up on letting the Taiyi Sect develop business here.
There are many shops in Shangjing City, but the sources of goods are monopolized by large merchants such as Datong Merchant Alliance.
Every business that can occupy a place in the business world has strong support behind it.
The world of cultivation does not talk about free economy or market economy.
When opening up the market, if your fist is not strong enough and your power is not strong enough, it will be delivered to your door and become a delicacy in the mouth of others.
But if we have the strength of Datong Business Alliance, we can easily tear open a large number of closed and conservative markets.
The current strength of the Ether Yi Sect is far from being qualified to take a share of the business community in Shangjing City.
There are a lot of cultivation items in Shangjing City, and many rare spiritual items can be purchased here.
Meng Zhang walked around the city a few times and spent a large amount of spiritual stones on a large number of items.
In addition, he also made a special trip to Dali Temple and went to the headquarters of the Five Criminal Guards to check the door.
Although he is not very optimistic about Han Yao, so far, Meng Zhang has no intention of betraying Wu Xingwei.
He has not been a member of Wuxingwei for a long time, but he has already gained many conveniences and benefits by virtue of his status as a member of Wuxingwei.
After Meng Zhang stayed in the inn for a few days, Sun Shengdu actually came to his door.
After Sun Shengdu finished handling official business at the Hengjue Mountains, he came to Shangjing City to look for Meng Zhang, his temporary companion.
The two have had the experience of fighting side by side before, and they have a certain affinity.
Sun Shengdu came to visit, mainly to connect with Meng Zhang and improve their understanding.
Sun Shengdu served in the local garrison in the mainland of the Dali Dynasty. He had a leisurely job, but his future was limited.
He did not know that Meng Zhang had joined the Five Penal Guards not long ago, and thought that Meng Zhang had already joined the Five Penal Guards.
The main purpose of his friendship with Meng Zhang was to obtain the opportunity to join the Five Penal Guards through Meng Zhang's introduction.
He said he didn't like Wu Xingwei very much, but in fact he still yearned for him very much.
Wuxingwei is not a top force in the Dali Dynasty, but it is much more promising than the local garrison where he served before.
After Meng Zhang figured out what Sun Shengdu was thinking, he was speechless. He himself is a newcomer who has just joined the Five Penal Guards, so he has no ability to introduce others.
Meng Zhang couldn't say much, let alone refuse the other party directly, so he could only hold off for now, preparing to mention it casually when he had the chance to see Han Yao next time.
Sun Sheng didn’t even know he had taken the wrong medicine, but he actually identified Meng Zhang. Almost every day, he would go to the place where Meng Zhang lived and pester him for a long time.
Early in the morning that day, Sun Shengdu ran to the courtyard where Meng Zhang lived again, with a mysterious smile on his face.
After dealing with him for so many days, Meng Zhang was already very familiar with him, and he was not polite and asked him directly what happened.
Sun Sheng didn't show off, saying that he wanted to introduce an old friend of his to Meng Zhang.
Soon, an old man came to Meng Zhang.
As soon as he reported his name, Meng Zhang knew his origin.
This old man calls himself Gu Yuedu. Needless to say, he must be a monk from the Gu Yue family.
Sure enough, in the following conversation, Meng Zhang roughly figured out the origin of this person.
In the Gu Yue family, female monks have always been respected. Male monks are far inferior to female monks in all aspects.
Gu Yuedu is the only True Lord of Yuanshen among the male monks of the Gu Yue family.
In addition to his own efforts, he was able to achieve his current level of cultivation because the woman from the Gu Yue family in Emperor Bawu's harem happened to be Gu Yuedu's own daughter.
With such a special status, Gu Yuedu also has a high status in the Gu Yue family.
There is no deep hatred between Meng Zhang and the Gu Yue family of the Dali Dynasty, and there is no threshold that cannot be overcome.
Gu Yueyu is the head of the state after all. If he comes to visit on his own initiative, Meng Zhang still has to pay attention to etiquette.
Gu Yueyu has many friends and has some friendship with Sun Shengdu.
After learning that Sun Shengdu was familiar with Meng Zhang, he asked Sun Shengdu to introduce him on his behalf.
This guy Sun Shengdu is still very enthusiastic about working among the powerful, so naturally he will not hesitate to do a small favor for Gu Yueyu.
On the surface, Meng Zhang talked enthusiastically with Gu Yuedu, and there was no hint of any dissatisfaction with the Gu Yue family.
Gu Yuedu praised Meng Zhang very much and admired all aspects of him.
The two of them chatted here and there for a long time before ending the conversation.
Looking at Gu Yuedu's leaving figure, Meng Zhang was still a little puzzled. Gu Yuedu came to visit just for this nonsense.
At this time, Sun Shengdu, who had been accompanying him before, started chatting with Meng Zhang with a smile.
It turns out that after Gu Yuedu knew that Meng Zhang had not married yet, he somehow came up with the idea of getting married to Meng Zhang.
The purpose of his visit this time was to become familiar with Meng Zhang first and to prove the relationship between Sun Shengdu and the Gu Yue family.
In order to avoid being rejected by Meng Zhang in person, there was no room for maneuver. After he left, Sun Shengdu raised the matter.
After hearing Sun Shengdu’s words, Meng Zhang’s expression was very strange, and he felt like he couldn’t laugh or cry.
Could it be that the Gu Yue family knew they had nothing to do with the Taiyi Sect, so they played a honey trap and threw sugar-coated bullets.
Sun Sheng didn't care about Meng Zhang's thoughts, but instead praised the female monk of the Gu Yue family as if she were selling melons.
To be honest, the female monks of the Gu Yue family are indeed very outstanding. They are all famous in the entire world of cultivation.
Meng Zhang has never had a wife anyway, so getting married to the Gu Yue family would be a huge benefit.
