Chapter 536: The Pond is a Thousand Feet Deep, and the People's Heart is in Danger
People come and go in the green water and smoke, the delicate and delicious food is full of long cases, because it is located in an extremely cold place, the large families here have a new way to eat, with a copper round pot, the bottom is simmered with a small charcoal fire, the meat soup stock, the fresh vegetables are put into the pot, and the vegetables are picked up in a moment, and the vegetables are tasted in the broth, which has a different flavor.
At this moment, the five masters and their subordinates were sitting in the lobby, waiting for the arrival of the master of Guiyunzhuang.
It has been more than ten days since receiving the letter and arriving here, but Leng Qiuzhi, who is the owner of Guiyun Village, has never shown up, saying that it was because Yinan Wumen suddenly attacked the business of Guiyun Village and went to deal with it.
Guiyunzhuang commanded the eight shops in Danyang, in addition to the favorable conditions such as the right time, place and people, but also because Leng Qiuzhi has been entrenched here since the time of the former war, although the power was suppressed after the establishment of the Jin Dynasty, but the hundred-legged insects are dead and not stiff, and the terrain of Danyang is special, and the imperial court cannot clear it, so it is still in the first place in the Danyang area.
Although the hall was lively, everyone present was a little absent-minded.
Everyone knows that the convening of the cold autumn is different from the past, because not long ago the roster of anti-Jin forces was leaked, and an undercurrent was set off in various places, and the wanton pursuit of the Xiangguo Mansion made people from all walks of life panic, many people couldn't stand the torture and betrayed their companions, thus attracting more people and exposing more forces.
Thinking of Luandong Racecourse, everyone present couldn't help but feel the cold current.
Childe is running around all year round, and many things are in charge of liaison with the heads of various places, don't say that many junior boys have never seen him, and many masters only see him once in a few years, but, even if it has been a long time, people who have seen him may not be able to forget that face.
As a man, he was born with a charming appearance, and a little cinnabar mark between his eyebrows does not know how many people in the world have gone to it! The color is like a spring dawn flower, and his eyes are like autumn water and half smoky, bright and beautiful; however, his temperament is very indifferent, and he always looks at him coldly, as if no one in this world can stir up his heart.
Last year, in the battle of the Eastern Capital, he and Prince Zheng left the Great Jin Dynasty and went to Zheng State, everyone thought that after Prince Zheng ascended the throne, the prince would lead the army to attack Jin and avenge the country's hatred and family revenge......
Unexpectedly, a few months ago, he came back suddenly, and then he didn't even come back with his subordinates who went to Dazheng, only he returned to Dajin with the two of them, although the specific reason was not stated, but everyone knows that the person he worked hard to support for many years broke his original promise, and it became a big lie to restore the country!
In order to put that person on the throne, his power in Dazheng plummeted, and in the end, he had to go back to Dajin and start all over again!
A nineteen-year-old boy was struggling in such a difficult situation, when the roster was leaked, the forces in various places were suppressed and hunted down, and the people's hearts were about to become scattered, he suddenly appeared and sent a hundred bloody human heads to the Luan Dong County Office! That was not only a deterrent, but also a warning to all those with ill intentions, a move that made the betrayers lose their fear, and also inspired those who still persisted like never before.
That's a child who has been up and down in power since he was a child, so no one can underestimate him, that seemingly weak, harmless person, often inadvertently give his opponent a fatal blow, many people may not be able to understand how they lost in the end!
"The owner has arrived!"
There was finally a sound outside the door, and in the distance, Leng Qiuzhi led people into the green water and smoke gate, and everyone in the hall got up and waited for him to enter behind the case.
"Let you stay in charge for a long time, Leng rushed back day and night after dealing with things, and I hope for your understanding. โ
"Be polite, the lord of the cold village is busy, let's wait, it's also as it should be. Yang Songwen spoke first, and followed Leng Qiuzhi to take over the conversation, everyone knew that he was a straw on the wall, swinging with the wind, so they didn't care about him, and after they all bowed their hands and returned the salute, they all returned the salute and sat down.
Long Qihan had already waited impatiently, and had been instigating everyone to leave a few days ago, and now seeing Leng Qiuzhi, his face was still quite unkind, and after sitting down, he smiled coldly and said: "I heard that the owner of Leng Zhuang provoked Yinan Wumen for some reason, so that the business in his hand was damaged, and it still needs us to pay the accounts in several big shops to fill it up, I don't know if there is such a thing." โ
Hearing that he was so straightforward and ruthless as soon as he opened his mouth, Leng Qiuzhi pressed down the sorrow in his heart, smiled slightly, and said: "If this is really the case, the rich side of the martial arts sect has never set foot in soldiers and horses, but it is not to be afraid, I summoned everyone this time, in fact, there is another purpose." โ
The few people present glanced at each other, Sun Changzhi smiled and flicked the golden abacus on the table, and asked seemingly ordinary: "I don't know what the owner of Leng Zhuang called us here for, I said it, let's also sum it up, and see if this business can be done." โ
Liu Yanzhi was silent, playing with the wine glass in his hand, while Chen Ge nodded his head and echoed Sun Changzhi's words.
"Come, let's have a drink first, this dream is a good wine brewed by me in Guiyunzhuang, and many people can't drink it if they want to. Leng Qiuzhi first filled a glass of wine, raised his hand high, and said: "We have been brothers for many years, some words, maybe everyone will feel harsh when they hear it, or even disdainful, but I Leng Qiuzhi people don't do dark things, since they dare to say it, they must dare to take the consequences and responsibilities, and do it first for respect!"
The atmosphere was suddenly solemn, and everyone in the hall was silent with their own thoughts, and the guards behind them were all panicked for a while.
According to the rules of Guiyunzhuang, everyone is not allowed to wear any weapons after entering the village, so this smoke-stealing person stood down, but he didn't even see a long sword, and those guards were worried about sudden changes, so they all approached their respective masters quietly, so that they could respond quickly in the emergency.
"Sun Dangjia's one-handed golden abacus is killing the soul, these minions are so blind, snubbing Sun Dang's family!" Leng Qiuzhi came to Sun Changzhi with a smile, leaned over and buckled the golden abacus in front of him, and then threw it at the promise, and said: "It's good for Sun Dangjia, when you leave the village, you can't miss a particle." โ
"If one particle is missing, I will return to Yunzhuang as ten times the compensation. The promise was an understatement, and then he handed the abacus to Hongda behind him.
The owner of the cold village laughed. Sun Changzhi laughed dryly, glanced at Long Qihan with his eyes, Long Qihan sat aside, looked at Yi Qiqi with a sneer, walked in front of Leng Qiuzhi, and stepped on the steps of the main seat again, before holding the wine glass in his hand, bowing his head and raising his voice: "We have stayed here in Guiyunzhuang for a long time, if the owner of Leng Zhuang has any good ideas, it is better to say it, whether it is successful or not, but it is a matter for everyone to discuss." โ
"That's true, since I have summoned all the leaders to come, I naturally want to ask for everyone's opinions, you should be very familiar with the current situation, the war in Jiuyuan is about to break out, do you think, we have waited for so many years, do we still have to continue to wait like this?"
"Heboduo's 100,000 iron horsemen are just outside the White Mountain, if you talk about timing, this is indeed a good time, but it's just ......" Chen Ge paused for a moment, and then said: "Childe doesn't know where people are, if you want to start an accident, you should take Childe's horse as the head, but Childe's whereabouts have always been erratic......"
"Master Chen, dare to ask for so many years, has the son ever been to my Danyang realm?" Leng Qiuzhi glanced at everyone in the hall with mockery, and sneered: "Even if it is a crossing, he will not be able to enter, there are so many companions in Dajin, and there are a few people who are close to our Danyang." โ
"This ......"
"Lord Leng said this is too extreme. Liu Yanzhi put the wine glass in his hand heavily, looked up at Leng Qiuzhi, and retorted in a deep voice: "Don't say that the son is not very old and in poor health, even if he is a person with deep experience in the city government, there will be inconsiderate places, why does the son always avoid Danyang, many of us have a number in our hearts, he has supported the entire family since he was six years old, and has been working hard for thirteen years, and the development and growth of the anti-Jin forces in his hands are obvious to all, how can the owner of Leng Zhuang erase his hard work and dedication so much." โ
"Well said, I know that many people have a pimple in their hearts about that incident back then, and it is difficult to let go, everyone thinks that I am cold and unkind, and treat a young child like this, it is really cold-blooded and ruthless! I don't know what you think, but I did think it was a big joke. I think that kid doesn't know the height of the sky, so I just want him to retreat. โ
Long Qihan let out a sneer at this, and raised his eyebrows at Leng Qiuzhi and said: "Who knows, that child who doesn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth actually survived in the end, but he really failed to do what the owner of Leng Zhuang wanted." โ
Listening to what his words mean, the rest of the people are all clear, but they don't break it, for so many years, Leng Qiuzhi's Sima Zhao's heart has been known to passers-by, but it's a pity that he has no power, but he is always unpopular, which is also where he is resentful and unwilling.
"Those who achieve great things should be informal, no matter what you say now, I don't care about Leng Qiuzhi. Leng Qiuzhi was a little annoyed, he knew that everyone was not convinced by him, and he actually didn't want everyone to choose to stand on his side, just like the other three masters who had died, since the Tao was different, naturally they didn't conspire with each other, big deal, kill it!
"Let's make it clear, there is a path before us now, if anyone knows how to plan for themselves, they might as well listen to it!"
"I want to hear about it. Long Qihan still continued with disdain, but his face was not disapproving at all.
Leng Qiuzhi closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then opened his eyes, stared at everyone, and said word by word: "Join forces with Xiangguo Mansion, open the border gate, and cover the rivers and mountains of the Great Jin Dynasty!"
"What did you say!"
The body suddenly rose, and the five people all exclaimed in surprise, looking up at Leng Qiuzhi, but their expressions were different.
"Leng Qiuzhi!Do you know what you just said?!" Liu Yanzhi shouted, and his anger suddenly rose: "Xiangguo Mansion is our enemy who is not in the same sky, how many of our brothers have died at the hands of the Wu family father and son, but now you want to be in cahoots with his wolf bรจi and help him to abuse?"
"I just said that there is nothing good, dragging us here for so many days, and I don't know what preparations have been made in secret, is this trying to wipe us out?" Long Qihan sneered, although Chen Ge did not speak, he was also full of anger.
Sun Changzhi's eyes swept around, and he didn't know what he was looking at, but Yang Songwen wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, accompanied by a smile, and said: "Everyone is a little restless, let's talk about it, don't hurt the harmony, everyone in charge sit down, let's talk well." โ
"There's nothing to say! If I want Mao Tong to turn his back on my son, it's impossible!" Liu Yan refused, and after sitting down, he was depressed, poured a glass of wine, and drank it fiercely.
"I remember that I have received the favor of my son, and I will never do such a thing!" Chen Ge sat down after finishing speaking, and did not speak again.
Long Qihan leaned into the chair, looked coldly at the door, and said nothing, at this moment he was thinking of nothing else, but the other three masters who did not attend the banquet.
Come to think of it, those three people are no longer alive!
With a sigh in his heart, Long Qihan knew that he and the others were more than lucky this time. Although the son has not been to Danyang for many years, it is not that he has not seen him, when Concubine Leng was in the world to lead the entire anti-Jin forces, how many men were embarrassed by her wrists, the child followed her at that time, and went to Tianshui with her, and her eyebrows looked like Concubine Leng's mother! After so many years, he must have become a stunning beautiful man.
"I know that it is very difficult for everyone to make a decision for a while, and I also know that everyone pins their hopes on Childe, but people will grow up, and people's emotions will also change, so I will let everyone meet a person, and then, tell everyone a shocking secret, and after you have seen that person and heard the secret I said, you will decide whether to accept my proposal. โ
Seeing Leng Qiuzhi's words, those people were all a little surprised, they didn't know who Leng Qiuzhi would let them see, and what kind of secret they would tell, but that person must be extremely important, otherwise Leng Qiuzhi would not have raised this now. After the promise left, the entire lobby fell into a dead silence, and everyone waited silently, waiting for the mysterious man to appear with some kind of secret.
The door was pushed open, and the shadow thorn standing in the corridor moved with the man's figure.
Flawless sat quietly in the room, staring at the dancing candle flames, and his thoughts drifted somewhere.
The moment the door was pushed open, he looked back and saw the indifferent face of the promise.
"Everyone is waiting for you!" Xu Xu stretched out his hand outside the door, and after a slight pause, he stood up.
"Are you ready?" asked the promise again.
Flawless stepped out of the door, promised to take the cloak from Xianyi's hand, ignored the surprised gazes of others, draped the cloak on Flawless, and then gently pulled up the snow hat and sorted it out carefully.
"Let's go. โ
Flawless didn't say a word the whole time, just stood in front of the man, looked at him, and then slowly followed the moment he turned around.
"Childe-"
"Childe!"
The call behind him made Flawless feet pause, he didn't look back, only shook his head slightly, and then continued to move forward, and Xu Yu walked ahead without hurry, and when he stepped out of the door of the Blue Water Pavilion, he suddenly stopped, waited for Flawless to come to his side, and then reached out, staggered past his fingertips, and tightly clasped his palm.
Time seems to have returned to more than ten years ago, when the peach blossoms were full of sky, the two children were also holding hands like this, walking in the same direction, laughing from the colorful flowers, but the simplicity of more than ten years ago can never go back......
Flawless is still the same flawless back then, Brother Zhengtang, what about you......
