Ji Zhenguo could not help but nod. Neither he nor Ji Zhenhua had expected that Ji Feng would have prepared a backup plan so early on. Furthermore, Ji Zhenguo had unknowingly acquired a large amount of evidence regarding the Chang Corporation.

All of these things were enough to put Ji Feng and the Ji Clan in an invincible position!

More importantly, Ji Feng had never been to Tongzhou. It had only been half a month since the a.s.sa.s.sination attempt and Ji Feng had collected so much evidence. No one actually noticed it.

This amount of energy alone was enough to cause everyone, including Ji Zhenhua and Ji Zhenguo, to reevaluate Ji Feng!

"Looks like we didn't get Ji Feng to make a move on him. That lad isn't obedient at all!" Ji Zhenguo laughed, "Initially, I only thought that even if he couldn't hold it in, he would at most use other methods to cause trouble for the Chang Clan. Perhaps, he might even beat up Chang Chongwei. But who would have thought that this brat would actually go all out and beat the Chang Clan so easily that they wouldn't be able to turn the situation around. "

As a father, he had personally witnessed his son growing up to this point. To be able to fight on equal footing with the Zhao Family and the Chang Clan without relying on the strength of the clan alone was truly a very joyful thing.

However, when he thought about what Ji Feng had experienced since he was young, how he had grown up with such a fearsome demeanor. Ji Zhenhua didn't know anything about it, nor did he know how many times Ji Feng had suffered so many hards.h.i.+ps to lose his edge and become so deep... Ji Zhenhua could only imagine the suffering that would arise in the middle of all this.

Thinking of this, Ji Zhenhua's heart ached.

His son's gradual growth, yet not being able to complete this transformation under his care and attention, Ji Zhenhua's guilt increased.

"Speaking of which, Little Feng did a great deed this time. His conflict with Chang Chongwei became a fuse. The evidence he gathered made it so that we wouldn't have to be so pa.s.sive. This kid is pretty good!" Ji Zhenguo chuckled.

Ji Zhenhua shook his head and said, "He was still a bit reckless. Before he figured out the background of the Zhao Family, he just casually made a move, and if he doesn't work well, he might fall into the trap of others, becoming the target of public criticism. This time, it could only be said to be his luck, his scheme, and the conflict between him and Chang Chongwei.

Ji Zhenhua lightly nodded his head. That was indeed the case.

The fact that the Zhao Family suffered such a blow wasn't all due to Ji Feng.

Strictly speaking, Ji Feng's actions didn't have much of an impact on the overall situation. What he had done could only be said to be gaining the upper hand in his battle with Chang Chongwei and the Zhao Family.

However, if the big families in Yan Jing were supporting the Zhao family, then no matter how much Ji Feng grasped the criminal evidence between the Chang Group and Chang Chongwei, he would not be able to beat Zhao Guo, not even Chang Chongwei. At that time, it would not only be a matter of evidence, but also a matter of power!

Fortunately, when Ji Feng made his move, it was a perfect opportunity!

Actually, this was nothing. The child's play could not affect the overall situation.

However, the second generation disciples of the Zhao Family were equally domineering. For example, Zhao Guosheng and his peers from the same generation of the Zhao Family were extremely domineering.

Their domineering att.i.tude was not only reflected in their usual words and actions, but more importantly, these Zhao Family's second generation disciples were extremely pa.s.sionate about fighting for power.

For example, if a pretty good seat was vacant, as long as a child of the Zhao Family took a fancy to it, they would immediately bring out the favor that the Zhao Family's old man had done for the other families and start s.n.a.t.c.hing this seat away from the others.

In any case, there was only one sentence. As long as a Zhao Family disciple took a fancy to the position, they had to obtain it!

Many people knew that the Zhao Family owed a debt of grat.i.tude to the other big families, especially the second generation or the elderly.

Therefore, as long as the Zhao Family managed to grab a spot, the others would either give face to the other big families, or give way to them, or accept a new position given by a certain family.

However, this way, the debts owed by the Zhao Family became more and more, and the number of members of the Zhao Family entering the political scene also increased!

He was a person that loved favors!

This was the truest portrayal of the Zhao Family. Relying on his family's old man's kindness to the other big families, he had to be involved in everything, fighting for everything, and thus, Beijing had a lot of gossip.

This way, the big families would not agree to the Zhao Family messing around in the first place!

The country belonged to everyone, not just one or two families, so it was fine to do it once or twice, because although the positions fought for by the Zhao Family members were very critical, but they were not at the top. Even so, so many of the Zhao Family disciples would fight for it whenever they saw a good position.

… ….

There was a lot of gossip like that.

More importantly, with such a long period of time, the political scene had almost undergone a drastic change. This was not something that the great families could tolerate.

If your disciples want to earn money, of course it is fine. Even if they have some unorthodox methods, they can still take care of it with difficulty. After all, this society cannot just be a pool of clear water. As long as you don't cause too much trouble, you can pretend not to see it.

However, the problem was that he was governing the country, not playing with it anymore. Moreover, the country wasn't something that could be decided by just one person and one person. Everyone in this position had a common goal, which was to properly govern the country and make it more prosperous and powerful.

You, a mere Zhao Family, can cause such a ruckus, how can you allow the commoners to live?

It was precisely because of this that the big families were dissatisfied. Everyone knew that they could not let the Zhao Family continue to mess around. Otherwise, they would lose the people's hearts and make the people complain.

But the problem was, how was he to make a move on the Zhao Family?

It was an irrevocable fact that no one could change the fact that the Zhao Family's old man had done a favour for them. If they wanted to touch the Zhao Family, they had to bear an ungrateful curse, and this was something that the Zhao Family often talked about.

The other side would naturally turn around and leave. Everyone was in the same circle, so no one wanted to take the blame for this.

The contradictions gradually acc.u.mulated over time.

The conflict between Chang Chongwei and Ji Feng happened in such a large setting.

This matter involved Zhao Guosheng's son, so, this was definitely an excellent opportunity to get rid of the Zhao Family's arrogance. At the same time, it would let the Zhao Family understand that if they just wanted to be a rich man in peace, then there was absolutely no problem. If they had the ability, they could also come up, but if they wanted to make it too much of a difference, then that was definitely impossible!

However, Ji Feng's drastic attack had turned Zhao Guosheng into the focus of all the clan attacks!

If he could defeat Zhao Guosheng, it would be equivalent to giving the Zhao Family a ruthless blow. The other disciples of the Zhao Family wouldn't be able to create much of a commotion either.

The Zhao Family no longer had a banner bearer, Chang Chongwei and the Chang Corporation had been thoroughly investigated, which put a heavy burden on the Zhao Family. They believed that if the Zhao Family members were smart, many of the people who held important positions would voluntarily apply to be transferred.
