Chapter 223: The Hongmen Banquet
Qin Lou's eyes were cold and gloomy, although he was a world friend with the Yu family, it was just the surface, and he secretly wanted to overpower the other party, so it was not surprising that he had today's situation.
"Brother Qilin, what do you want?" Qin Lou asked with a calm face.
"Huh...... Qin Lou, it's not what I want, it's what you want, you have been pestering, what can I do, besides, the matter was caused by your son, he was rude first, and if the Hou Ye beat him, it would be evened, isn't this good? "To be honest, the Jade Qilin doesn't want to get into trouble with Qin Lou now, compared to this, there are more important things to do.
"In other words, Brother Qilin still can't let me know the identity of Liang Gongzi?"
"Yes, that's the case, if Qin Ye still refuses to stop, then you and I will only have to tear our faces."
Qin Lou was silent for a long time, he was thinking about the pros and cons of this, it was impossible for him to swallow this breath, if he had a stiff fight with the Jade Qilin at this time, I am afraid that he would lose both, thinking of this, Qin Lou sneered: "Brother Qilin, since you have spoken to this point, it seems that I can only give in, as you said, we are both even, can I leave now?" ”
"Of course!"
Qin Lou took a deep look at Lang Li, and left with his uncompetitive son, Luo Chan also took Luo Xiulang away, he never said anything, he just wanted to see the two families of Yu and Qin fight to the death, that is what he wanted to see, but it backfired, and in the end the two families did not fight.
Everyone else is gone, only Geng Chunjing is left, and he is not left or staying, he is in a dilemma, maybe he didn't know until now that Liangmu was really not an ordinary person. Of course, the jade qilin didn't embarrass him, just preached a few words and let him leave, after all, his father was still the assassin of the military state.
The matter is settled, but no one is happy, Hou Mingwang was passing by here, and said hello to Lang Li and the others and the jade unicorn and left, but before he left, he still told Lang Li that if there is a place where he can be used, he can go to Fenglai Town to find him at any time.
After this matter was over, Lang Li had no reason to stay in Yuzhou, but Yu Qilin still tried her best to stay, and Yu Jiaoer didn't want Lang Li to go, she wanted to stay with him all the time, and she became more and more fascinated by Lang Li.
But in Yuzhou, it is a waste of time, and I don't know why, the jade unicorn just won't let them go, and even forced each other to die, even if it is a bit too enthusiastic, Lang Li faintly realized that there was a problem here, so he promised to stay for three more days.
For Qin Lou, how could the matter of Happy Mansion be just settled, overnight, the Qin family became the laughing stock of Yuzhou City, and at the same time consolidated the leading position of the Jade Qilin in Yuzhou.
Yuzhou is located on the south coast, since it is close to the sea, it means that there are many small islands, of course, Goldfish Island is also one of them, but it is far from the coast.
There is one of the largest islands in the South China Sea called Guanyin Island, and at the same time there are seventy-one small islands around Guanyin Island, which are collectively called Guanyin Island, also called the seventy-two islands of the South China Sea, if all the islands are added together, they are not necessarily much smaller than Yuzhou.
There is an island owner named Long Feifei on the seventy-two islands in the South China Sea, and few people have witnessed his true face, and even men and women don't know. So the one who often comes out to show up is the chief manager of Guanyin Island, named Zhong Lin. Each island has its own master, but they are all under the orders of Long Feifei, or Zhong Lin.
Seventy-two islands are also mainly for business, but its members are all people from the rivers and lakes, and they are very famous in the entire Central Plains, but it is not known what business they do, in short, Guanyin Island is very powerful, which is why no matter how the Central Plains martial arts change, it is so calm here.
Qin Lou is doing
In the shipping business, his merchant ships often go to sea, and he has a good relationship with the people of Seventy-two Islands, and he is also a friend with the chief manager Zhong Lin, so this time, in order to completely defeat the Jade Qilin, Qin Lou took his unsuccessful son to Guanyin Island with a lot of money, and asked the people of the Seventy-two Islands to help him suppress the Jade Qilin, and it is best to drive him out of Yuzhou, or let the Jade family disappear.
I thought it would take a lot of money, but I didn't know that Qin Lou explained the reason, and Zhong Lin quickly agreed, which was unexpected.
Staying in Yufu, there is really nothing to do, every day is to eat and drink, and then to visit Yuzhou City, Lang Li has something in his heart, so he is not as happy as he appears.
Yu Jiao'er follows Lang Li's side almost every day, anyone can see Yu Jiao'er's thoughts, but she didn't say it, even she herself knew that this was not good, she couldn't always pester Lang Li, she couldn't control herself, sometimes she really wanted to stay by his side, even if she was small, it didn't matter, and she was quickly frightened by this thought.
Three days later, that is, when Lang Li and the others were leaving, the father and daughter of the Yu family still retained, but this time there was no reason. The matter of Lang Li and Yu Jiao'er is not clear, and no one has mentioned it, but I hope it will not be over.
Before arriving at the gate, he heard the voice of the horse team, huhula, stopped in front of the door of the Jade Mansion, everyone did not understand the reason, the Jade Qilin was also at a loss, came to the door, saw this person's heart sank, this person he knew, is a small island owner named Zhou Ruixing on the 72 Islands of the South China Sea, has dealt with several times, the Jade Qilin does not understand the arch of the hand: "What is the matter with the Lord of Zhou Island to the Mansion?" ”
Zhou Ruixing was also polite, jumped off the horse, and said with a smile: "Master Yu, my head Zhong Lin and Qin Lou are in the Happy Building, please go to the banquet and invite Master Yu to give him a face." ”
The jade qilin chuckled in his heart, and immediately understood what he meant: "May I ask the island master Zhou, when will you go to the banquet?" ”
"The sooner the better, by the way, take your daughter and a few guests in your house, this is what our housekeeper specially ordered!" After speaking, Zhou Ruixing got on the horse with his fists clenched and walked away.
For this matter, Yu Qilin's heart was like a mirror, he knew that Qin Lou used the power of Guanyin Island to take revenge on him, and it would definitely be no good to go, but if he didn't go, he couldn't escape it, so he came back dejected.
"Did something happen to Yubo?" Lang Li saw that he was not normal and asked.
The jade qilin didn't know how to speak: "Gongzi Lang, Gongsun Sword Master, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave for a while......"
……
The Happy Building was still so lively, and it didn't become cold at all because something was going to happen, as usual, but the entire second floor was wrapped up by Qin Lou, and the scattered tables and chairs were removed, and a large round table was set up, Qin Lou's father and son, Zhong Lin and several island owners sat around and waited, sometimes talking and laughing.
"Master Qin, do you think the Jade Qilin will come?" Zhong Lin asked.
"Haha...... Yes, he will definitely be, he is a very proud person, how can he stand such a provocation! Qin Lou was confident.
"What are you going to do with the Jade Qilin and that good wood after that is done?"
"It's very simple, I'm not a merciless person, as long as Yu Qilin apologizes to me in front of all the people in Yuzhou, and marries Yu Jiao'er to my son, this matter will be over, otherwise he will have to get out of Yuzhou City for me." Qin Haisheng felt a sense of relief in his heart after hearing this, as if Yu Jiao'er was already in his pocket.
Qin Lou paused for a moment and said: "As for that Liangmu, I am indeed more interested in his identity, of course, I can't blame him for everything, as long as he kneels down and apologizes to my son, it's over!" ”
Zhong Lin narrowed his eyes, smiled and nodded without saying anything, not knowing what he was thinking.
The two talked happily, and at this time, the jade unicorn arrived with Lang Li and the others, but there was no longer the arrogance of the previous days, but his face was still calm as usual.
The group climbed to the second floor, Qin Lou was still very polite, stood up, and let everyone sit down, Lang Li was no stranger to Qin Lou's father and son, but he was very unfamiliar with Zhong Lin and a few people, he had never seen it, but he looked at this person's peaceful face, not like a treacherous person, maybe deliberately behaved on the surface.
Everyone sat down, and Qin Lou took the lead in speaking: "Brother Qilin, everyone is an old acquaintance, I think you should know who he is without me introducing you!" ”
"Huh...... This is natural, no one in Yuzhou City, the housekeeper of Zhong, knows who knows, it's just that the old man has just eaten his own Yumen banquet and went to Qin's brother's banquet, but I don't know if this is an old friend or a Hongmen banquet! The jade unicorn did not procrastinate, and directly said its original intention.
Qin Lou's smile froze: "Hehe...... Brother Qilin laughed, but what kind of banquet is this, it depends on your Brother Qilin's performance! ”
Zhong Lin sat between the two of them and kept smiling without saying a word, he was observing, observing how things would go in the end.
"What does Brother Qin mean by this, Yu doesn't understand!"
"Oh? So Brother Kirin forgot what happened three days ago? That day, Brother Qilin asked Qin not to come to the stage in front of everyone in Yuzhou, you won't forget it! ”
"Huh...... How could it be, but the old man doesn't think there is anything to embarrass you, and the matter is indeed caused by your son's rudeness, do you still have to speak in front of the big housekeeper Zhong? ”
The gentle atmosphere dissipated, and now that he had already made his words clear, Qin Lou no longer pretended: "Jade Qilin, I don't care what the reason is, in short, I, Qin Lou, have lost face, you must get my face back today!" ”
The Jade Qilin didn't go back to Qin Lou directly, but looked at Zhong Lin: "That's what Butler Zhong mean?" ”
"Oh...... Hehe...... What you say about yours, I'm just a middleman, don't take a stand! Although he said this, anyone could hear that he was heading towards Qin Lou.
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll ask Master Qin, how can I get you back face?"
Qin Lou smiled, stood up, poured himself a glass of wine, and filled Zhong Lin and Yu Qilin: "Actually, it's very simple, everyone is an old friend, you don't have to make this a fuss, as long as you can apologize to me in front of everyone in Yuzhou City, and then marry Jiao'er to Haisheng, this matter will be forgotten, what do you think?" ”
"Hmm...... It's really simple, it's not hard for me, but what should I do? How would you ......?"
