In other words, this w.a.n.g Zhijun had some weight to him.

"Actually, strictly speaking, the w.a.n.g family isn't a top family in Beijing. The top people right now are only w.a.n.g Zhijun's father. He is also a minister in the top ministries, so he isn't that prominent." Ji Shalei said, "But the problem is, w.a.n.g Zhijun's grandfather, the so-called Old Master w.a.n.g, is still alive!"

Ji Feng couldn't help but be taken aback. "Another old man is still alive?"

This news caused Ji Feng to be astonished.

Each and every one of the old men who survived could be considered a good clan, and could even be considered prosperous. For example, his own clan. Because his grandfather was alive, the Ji Clan was stable, and was growing larger and larger.

For example, the Wu Clan, He Clan, and other clans were similar.

To put it harshly, if one wanted to see whose family was more prosperous, then it would really depend on which family's old man would live longer. Although this was not nice to say, it was a matter of reality.

However, if the lordmaster was no longer here, it would be difficult to say if he was still given face. There were some families that would decline very quickly because the old man was no longer around, and those who were below weren't very good at being a person. On the contrary, it was quite common.

Ji Feng was very interested in these things. For example, he would ask about those famous generals who were familiar with the affairs of the country, and he also liked to listen to their deeds. Therefore, whenever he had the chance, he would often ask about these things while he was chatting with the old man or his second brother.

For example, when it came to a great general, the old tutor would have an expression of nostalgia on his face. He would talk about the character of this great general and the matters of his life, and if they had worked together, he would talk about the interactions between them. If they didn't belong in the same army, the old man would talk about how they competed.

The old man remembered all of this very clearly, and Ji Feng listened attentively.

However, Ji Feng had never heard of him before. Where did Old Man w.a.n.g come from? Judging from Second Brother's manner of speaking, it seemed that this Old Master w.a.n.g was the same as the other old men.

Therefore, Ji Feng was very surprised. He curiously asked, "Second Brother, why haven't you guys told me that there is still an old man left in the w.a.n.g Clan?"

Actually, from what Ji Feng could remember, not only had he never heard of the w.a.n.g Clan having an old man alive, he had never even heard of the w.a.n.g Clan!

Was he too ignorant?

However, Ji Shaolei sneered and said, "It's normal that you haven't heard of him, because this old man w.a.n.g can't even be considered a founding father or a famous general. He only took the opportunity to take down a group of people in a few movements and then let Taizu rely on him."

Ji Feng couldn't help but be startled, and then he began to understand.

If one were to talk about battling experts, then the Great Ancestor was undoubtedly one of them. One could see just how many of the big figures had been defeated. And in that environment, how many people were speculating, or taking advantage of the situation?

This kind of person did not have any skill, but his ability to see the wind and use the force of the wind was something that others could not compare to. In the end, many generals fought fiercely with the enemy, and even some generals' families made huge sacrifices, and some of their comrades and brothers died on the battlefield, but these people only needed to move their mouths and lift their pens to become officials.

In the end, these heroes were randomly given an excuse and put in a miserable state.

In that turbulent era, who knew how many heroes with outstanding achievements had died from it? Speaking of it, it was truly a cause for deep sighs.

The people who speculated were obviously playing a very disgraceful role. It could even be said that they were responsible for a large portion of the deaths of the heroes!

Hearing Ji Shaolei's words, it seemed that this old man w.a.n.g was still just a speculator. In reality, he was just like some speculators in the government. If they didn't do proper business, others did, but they still talked about it. They were even thinking of how to find fault so that they could pull others down and become their own superiors.

This old man should've been such a person all those years ago.

"Maybe this old man w.a.n.g knows what he has done in the past and knows that what he has done is not something he is wanted by others. That's why the w.a.n.g family has been very close to the Wu family since a long time ago. In these few years, the w.a.n.g family has been wearing the same pants as the Wu family!" Ji Shalei laughed coldly.

Ji Shaorei scoffed, "Isn't that so!? Think about it, if that old man w.a.n.g is really like my old man, with his reputation and status, and that old man w.a.n.g is still alive, why would the w.a.n.g family want to lick the eyes of the Wu family? If it wasn't for the fact that old man w.a.n.g still had some influence, then even if w.a.n.g Zhijun's father was not just a department head, he wouldn't be able to get anything out of the vice minister! "

At this point, Ji Shaolei suddenly lowered his voice and said, "I heard that one of the most famous things that old man w.a.n.g did was to turn black and white in that chaos and frame an old hero. As a result, that old hero was beaten to death …"

Hearing this, Ji Feng was shocked. Of course, he had heard of the old hero's name. He was a famous general in both the war against j.a.pan and the final war, but he ended up in a miserable state.

If that was really the case, then this old man from the w.a.n.g family was really a bad person!

"Actually, I heard about this too. After all, I have never experienced that era, but, the w.a.n.g family is very crowded in the upper echelons, and very few people would like to see them. So, even if Old Master w.a.n.g is still alive, the w.a.n.g family is still in decline …" Perhaps they have never risen to prominence, and have no principles when facing the wind. This is only a small path after all! " Ji Shalei said.

Ji Feng slightly nodded his head. Things had already been going on for decades, and only the people from that era knew what exactly was going on. However, one thing was certain, this Old Master w.a.n.g was definitely not a popular person, so even the w.a.n.g family was not welcome.

"Speaking of which, this old man w.a.n.g really can live!" Ji Shaorei chuckled, "He's already over ninety years old, and yet he's still hanging in the air. He's just not going to meet the King of h.e.l.l!"

"Ninety years old?" Ji Feng was slightly surprised, "Even older than grandfather!"

Ji Feng immediately raised his eyebrows. For a moment, he didn't understand what Ji Shaolei meant. What was so special about this?

Old man w.a.n.g was in his nineties. His youngest son was around thirty, so he could at most be considered an older son. This was normal, but why did his second brother sound like he was teasing him?

In reality, since the start of the war in China, there had only been three to four generations of people. The fourth generation hadn't even grown yet, and most of them were still children.

The second generation was naturally the generation of Ji Feng's father. The age range was very large, some of them were already in their sixties or seventies, while some were only in their forties. This was mainly due to some historical factors.

For example, a certain old man who was over forty years older than his eldest child. If this was right now, it might have sounded strange, but in reality, this situation from back then was nothing out of the ordinary.
