Chapter 563 [If you go outside, you must first settle inside!] Five
The night is getting thicker, the huge Yanjing City is brightly lit, and the alley that the magnates privately think is no lower than the royal garden is quiet, and the guards are either guarding the entrance of the alley and the courtyard door, or hiding in the dark, closely observing everything around to ensure that there are no potential safety hazards.
Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing arrived at the mouth of the alley in a special car, the driver stopped the car, and the internal guards in charge of the inspection first saluted, and then saw that only Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing were sitting in the car, and they were directly released without routine inspection.
Obviously, as the inner guards here, they had already known Qin Zheng, the third-generation successor of the Qin family.
After the Ouchi guards let him go, Qin Zheng's special car entered the alley smoothly, and finally stopped in front of a courtyard house in the middle of the alley, and Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing walked down from the car one after another.
"Qin Shu. Remember, Mr. Xiao. β
Compared with the Ouchi guards at the mouth of the alley, the Ouchi guards at the gate of the courtyard are more familiar with Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing.
"Good work." Qin Zheng smiled and patted the shoulder of the Ouchi guard, and then directly led Xiao Ailing into the courtyard.
"Qin Shu. Ji, Mr. Xiao, the leader is now receiving a qigong massage, you can wait. Seeing Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing entering the door, Qin Hongshan's life secretary hurriedly greeted him.
When Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing heard this, although they couldn't wait to negotiate with Qin Hongshan face to face immediately, they nodded, sat on the sofa, and waited patiently - they both knew very well that a big man like Qin Hongshan, who stood at the top of the power pyramid, would often be examined by the imperial doctor and massaged by a qigong master to ensure that their physical and mental state was always at its best.
I don't know how long it took. The qigong master who was in charge of massaging Qin Hongshan walked down from the second floor, saw Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing, and took the initiative to come forward to greet him, saying, "Qin Shu. Ji, Mr. Xiao, I have finished massaging the leader, and the leader asked you to go to the study to wait for him first. β
"Good work, Master Huang." Qin Zheng nodded in thanks. Then go upstairs with Xiao Ailing.
After entering the study, Qin Zheng sat on the sofa and lit a special red panda, and Xiao Ailing knew that Qin Hongshan had a soft spot for Wuyi Mountain's big red robe. Take the initiative to make tea for Qin Hongshan.
A moment later, Qin Hongshan walked into the study in his pajamas, and Qin Zheng hurriedly snuffed out his cigarette and got up. Xiao Ailing brought the brewed tea to the desk.
"Sit down." Qin Hongshan glanced at Qin Zheng with a complicated expression, and motioned for Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing to sit down.
"You came to me so late, it should be for Pei Dong's business, right?" Taking a sip of tea gently, Qin Hongshan took the initiative to speak, although he used a questioning tone, but in fact, he was clear about the purpose of the two of them.
Hearing Qin Hongshan's words, although Xiao Ailing was anxious, she also knew the rules and didn't dare to speak, while Qin Zheng nodded with a wry smile. said: "Dad, Ailing and I mean, can we save Donglai's life?" β
Although he guessed the intention of Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing in his heart, when he heard Qin Zheng say it straight to the point, Qin Hongshan did not say anything. Instead, he picked up the teacup again and drank it unhurriedly.
"Dad, no matter what you say, Donglai and Dongxue's engagement is a fact, he is Dongxue's fiancΓ©, and he will be Dongxue's husband in the future. He is also the son-in-law of the Qin family. Seeing that Qin Hongshan didn't say anything, Xiao Ailing's heart tightened, and she couldn't take care of the rules in a hurry, so she stood up directly from the sofa, bowed and pleaded: "Ailing hopes that Dad can come forward to save Donglai's life." β
"Do you think I can save him?" Qin Hongshan put down the teacup, but instead of looking at Xiao Ailing, he set his eyes on Qin Zheng.
Qin Hongshan's words sounded in his ears, and sensing Qin Hongshan's fierce gaze, Qin Zheng groaned for a moment, hardened his head, and said, "Dad, I know this is very difficult. But...... If we do our best, there is hope for saving him. β
"Not only did he kill Ye Zhengrong and the five agents, but more importantly, he colluded with the realm. Outside forces! Qin Hongshan said in a deep voice: "You tell me, where is the hope?" β
"Dad, do you think Donglai would do such a stupid thing?" Qin Zheng hesitated for a moment, but still said this sentence.
"It doesn't matter."
Seeing Qin Zheng speaking to himself in an inquiring tone, Qin Hongshan's eyebrows instantly raised, as if he was very dissatisfied with Qin Zheng's performance, "The important thing is that since he colluded with the realm. If the foreign forces arrested Ye Zhengrong and five agents on the grounds that they killed him, then it is enough to prove that there is sufficient evidence above to prove that he did it! To put it mildly, there is no evidence, and some people will make good evidence! β
"Dad, is there really nothing at all?" When Xiao Ailing heard this, her heart sank completely, and her face showed a bit of despair.
"Xiao Zheng, I've always been very satisfied with your performance, but I'm very dissatisfied with your performance today!"
Qin Hongshan ignored Xiao Ailing, but stared at Qin Zheng coldly, and said word by word: "From ancient times to the present, all the emperors who can sit firmly on the country, which one will be the benevolence of women?" No! No successful emperor would be like this! On the contrary, those emperors who have been passed down through the ages are all ruthless people - in order to become emperors, close relatives can be killed, let alone a beginner son-in-law? β
This time, Qin Zheng was speechless, because ...... He knew that what Qin Hongshan said was the truth.
"That's the first point I'm disappointed in you today. The second point, you should know that after the death of the old man of the Xiao family, Xiao Yuanqing was worried that Pei Donglai would affect the Xiao family, so he drew a line with Pei Donglai as soon as possible. After that, the Ye family won the gladiatorial battle and reached a higher level of strength. β
Seeing that Qin Zheng didn't speak, Qin Hongshan continued: "At this time, you asked me to save Pei Donglai, do you want the Qin family to completely tear their faces with the Ye family and not die?" Or do you want to push the Qin family into the fire pit and let the efforts of generations go to waste? β
"I'm sorry, Dad, I was impulsive." Hearing Qin Hongshan's lesson, Qin Zheng let out a sullen breath and got up to admit his mistake.
"Uh......"
Seeing Qin Zheng change her mind, Xiao Ailing was stunned for a moment, then her body trembled slightly, and said, "You...... You said you'd save your life no matter what! β
"Smack!"
Hearing Xiao Ailing speak again, Qin Hongshan slammed the desk, shaking the teacup, only to see him shouting with a cold face: "It's all said and done, do you still want to save him?" I think you're fooling around! β
"Ailing, so far, even if I want to save him, there is nothing I can do." Seeing that Qin Hongshan was angry, Qin Zheng sighed, stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Ailing's arm, signaling Xiao Ailing not to talk back to Qin Hongshan.
Xiao Ailing bit her lip and didn't say anything more, letting tears fill her eyes, and her face was completely full of despair.
For a while, the atmosphere in the study was particularly depressing.
"Jingle Bell ......"
Then, just as Qin Zheng was about to leave with Xiao Ailing, the phone in the study rang.
Qin Hongshan retracted his gaze angrily and grabbed the phone.
"XX, Dongxue is outside the door, saying that he wants to see you." In the hall downstairs, Qin Hongshan's life secretary reported respectfully.
"You tell her that I have important things to deal with and I don't have time to see her, so let her go back with her parents." Qin Hongshan opened his mouth expressionlessly, subconsciously thinking that Qin Dongxue was also here to beg him to come forward to save Pei Dong.
"Okay."
Qin Hongshan's life secretary first replied respectfully, then hesitated for a moment, and said, "But...... XX, according to the guard at the door, Dongxue came in Xiao Yuanqing's spare car. β
"What did you say?"
Generally speaking, big people like Qin Hongshan and Xiao Yuanqing have more than one special car, and there will be a spare, and as long as the special car that is usually used is okay, the spare car will not move, even if the children under their knees want to use it.
In such a situation, stunned to hear the words of the life secretary, Qin Hongshan's pupils dilated suddenly, and his face was full of disbelief: "You said that she was in Xiao Yuanqing's spare car?" β
"Yes, XX." The life secretary said: "The guard at the door should not recognize the wrong license plate. β
"Let her come to my study." After receiving an affirmative answer again, Qin Hongshan subconsciously said, but his heart was full of doubts - how could Dongxue take Xiao Yuanqing's spare car?
Compared with Qin Hongshan, Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing were shocked when they heard that Qin Dongxue came in Xiao Yuanqing's spare car.
Even, if it weren't for this sentence coming out of Qin Hongshan's mouth, they wouldn't believe it!
"Bang...... Bang......"
Later, before Qin Hongshan, Qin Zheng and Xiao Ailing could recover from their surprise, doubts and other emotions, there was a knock on the door of the study.
"Come in."
Hearing the knock on the door, Qin Hongshan was the first to speak.
Crunch!
The door of the study opened, and Qin Dongxue walked into the study with Xia Yina.
"Grandpa, Dad, Mom." Entering the study and seeing that her parents were there, Qin Dongxue's heart moved, and she instantly understood the intention of the two, and her heart couldn't help but feel warm, and at the same time greeted the three of them separately.
"Grandpa Qin, uncle, aunt are good." Xia Yina also followed suit.
Maybe it was because Qin Dongxue had successfully persuaded Xiao Yuanqing, or maybe it was Qin Dongxue's composure that infected Xia Yina, and Xia Yina no longer behaved as nervous as she was when she entered Xishan No. 2 Villa before.
"Hello."
Seeing Xia Yina greeting, Qin Zheng and his wife responded one after another.
"Dongxue, who is this?" Qin Hongshan first nodded at Xia Yina, and then frowned and looked at Qin Dongxue, faintly displeased-this is the study of the Xiao family's courtyard, where he talked with important members of the Qin family, what is the matter with Qin Dongxue bringing Xia Yina in?
"Grandpa, her name is Xia Yina, and she is my sister." Facing Qin Hongshan's questions and perceiving Qin Hongshan's dissatisfaction, Qin Dongxue said without being arrogant or humble: "We are all women from Pei Donglai!" β
"Uh......"
Stunned to hear Qin Dongxue say such an astonishing sentence, Xiao Ailing directly opened her mouth in shock, and although Qin Zheng and Qin Hongshan had excellent psychological quality, they were also shocked.
"You ......"
After being surprised, Qin Hongshan's face changed in anger, and he tried to reprimand Qin Dongxue angrily, but after remembering the report of the previous life secretary, he did not get angry immediately, but forcibly suppressed the anger, and asked in a deep voice: "Secretary Zhang said that you came in Xiao Yuanqing's spare car, what is going on?"
