Section 078: Power Struggle
Surrounded by mountains and rivers, the water mist is thick. This is the location of a natural hot spring in Province Z.
Lian Chen's body was shiny, his eyes were closed, his head and hands were relaxed where he could lean, and his body was relaxed in the hot spring.
After half a meal, there was a sound of footsteps, Lian Chen opened his eyes when he heard the sound, quickly stood up from the hot spring, and put on a bath towel. As soon as he put on the bath towel, the Japanese-style sliding door was opened, but he saw Lian Ruliang and an old man standing outside the door.
The old man, whose real name is Qin Fangzheng, but in the eyes of the world, he is Lian Yunzhong. He is the king of Province Z.
"Grandpa Qin!" Lian Chen's attitude was very humble, and there was less indifference on his face.
"Ah Chen!" Qin Fangzheng smiled with his eyebrows and eyes, very kind, completely different from Lian Ruliang's exposed ferocity, "Knowing that you were in a hurry to find me, I rushed here immediately, but I was still late for most of the day, you won't blame me!" β
"How so!" Lian Chen's busy road.
"You go outside first, I'll bubble alone with Ah Chen!" Qin Fangzheng turned back to Lian Ruliang and said.
"Okay grandpa!" Lian Ruliang responded, raised his eyebrows at Lian Chen, and then pulled the door and went out.
Lian Chen stepped forward and helped Qin Fangzheng down to the hot spring, the kind of arrogance and nobility on his body was completely restrained at this moment. Qin Fangzheng glanced at Lian Chen from the corner of his eye, and seeing that his attitude was respectful, he was very satisfied with it, and his chin unconsciously raised a few points.
β¦β¦
It was already midnight when Lian Chen returned home, and the little dragon raised by Chu Anruo was very vigilant and screamed a few times, probably being appeased by Chu Anruo. After that, there was no sound.
It's just that Lian Yunzhong didn't sleep, waiting for Lian Chen in the living room. See Lianchen come back. Lian Yunzhong, who was wearing a coat, stood up and went to the study, and Lian Chen followed silently.
Wait for the study door to close. The first thing Lian Yun, who sat down in the chair, said, "Are you ready?" β
This is a brainless question, but Lian Chen understands, grandpa Lian Yunzhong is asking him: Is he ready to take over the Lian family's YiqiΔ and go to the front. And the other layer also means whether he is ready to deal with Qin Fangzheng.
That's right, Lian Yunzhong and Qin Fang are brothers who are close friends in life and death, and more than 20 years ago, Lian Yunzhong was for the safety of his family. Choosing to retreat behind the scenes, Qin Fangzheng took the initiative to go to the front.
Lian Yunzhong trusts Qin Fangzheng, and Qin Fangzheng is also loyal to Lian Yunzhong. It's just that time changes, and people's hearts will change.
As early as thirteen years ago, Lian Yunzhong officially knew that Qin Fangzheng had changed. The qiΔ that belongs to the Lian family still belongs to the Lian family on the surface, but in fact, the monarch of Z province has the surname Qin. It's him Qin Fangzheng.
For the right thing, Lian Yun doesn't attach much importance to it, the question is. When he completely loses the rights of his family, that is, when his family is uprooted.
There are some roads that can only move forward and not go back.
Lian Chen stood in front of Lian Yunzhong, facing his grandfather's straightforward question. He was silent for a moment, then shook his head.
Lian Chen developed some forces that belonged to her, and some of them took the initiative to let Qin Fangzheng and them know. Part of it is secret, just now. The secret he thought was Qin Fangzheng, they might not know. In Lian Yunzhong's hands, there are also some of his old followers. This is the reason why Qin Fangzheng has not dared to let "Qin" directly replace "Lian" for many years.
However, Qin Fangzheng was afraid that sooner or later he would have to show his fangs.
Lian Yunzhong's poisoning, Lian Chen suspected that it had something to do with Qin Fangzheng. They even keep their family secrets very well, there are not many people who know the official identity of their ancestors and grandchildren, and the one who has the most interest in killing them is none other than Qin Fangzheng.
But what if you know these situations, if it is really about strength, Lian Chen knows very well that in a head-on fight, he only has a four-layer chance of winning.
"If you're not sure, why are you looking for him to ask for power?" Lian Yun frowned and asked sternly, "Do you want to use this way to make him disguard against you?" β
After Lian Chen left the hot spring, Qin Fangzheng called Lian Yunzhong, and sighed very lonely, saying that he was old, but Lian Chen had grown up and was smart, and it was time for their Qin family to belong to Lian Chen. He Qin Fangzheng can also retire and retire for a long time.
Lian Chen was silent. After the archaeologist's incident, Lian Chen has been checking the people around him. There is no problem with his people, so the problem is with the people Qin Fangzheng gave.
Lian Chen euphemistically put forward his thoughts, he meant to clear the team. He also wants some power.
Lian Yunzhong is not wrong, asking for power is not the main purpose, what he really wants is to make Qin Fangzheng relax his vigilance against him, thinking that he Lian Chen trusts him, stupidly treats him as a relative, and can't see his Qin family's prodigal ambitions, so that he will not poison him Lian Chen and his grandfather Lian Yunzhong behind his back.
"You're doing a great job!" Lian Yun changed his tone again, from the strict sΓΉ just now to the gentle, "Although Lao Qin is suspicious and may not be able to believe it, at least he will not be completely unconvinced." But to deal with him, you must not be in a hurry, you must be fully prepared, and you must cut off his hands and feet......! β
Lian Yun taught Lian Chen carefully, what he taught Lian Chen was how to endure, how to strike backwards, how to connect the horizontal and vertical camps, and how to break with one blow......
It wasn't until it was almost time that Lian Yunzhong let Lian Chentake a rest, and Lian Yunzhong himself still wanted to stay in the study for a while.
Lao Li sent some supper. Qin Fangzheng and Lian Chen's affairs today, Lao Li is very clear.
has followed Lian Yunzhong for many years, and he probably knows what Lian Yunzhong will say to Lian Chen, but he won't say that one thing: that is the real cause of death of Lian Chen's parents and Lian Chen's grandmother.
Grandma Lianchen died because of Lianchen, and they want to cut off the roots of Lianchen's family, so naturally after killing Lianchen's parents, they will also kill Lianchen. The reason why Lian Yunzhong was willing to push the Qin family to the throne and let them become the Lian family on the bright side was that he didn't want the enemy to hurt Lian Chen.
"Lao Li, I'm afraid!" Lian Yunzhong sighed deeply, and then buried his face in the palm of his hand.
Lian Yunzhong's hands were stained with human blood, and this seemingly sour man was a terrifying hero back then. He said he was afraid, not afraid of death. It's the fear of losing.
When I was young, I didn't believe in retribution, until now. Lian Yunzhong was a little convinced. It's not that you don't report it, it's not the right time. What he fears now is the loss of Lianchen. Lost his only blood relative.
Lao Li sighed deeply, approached Lian Yunzhong, and patted his hand lightly on his shoulder.
At the same time, Qin Fangzheng was also talking to several of his sons and grandsons about similar things.
Qin Fangzheng and Lian Yunzhong are the same age and have the same height, when they "fought the country" together, they both wore masks on their faces, so Qin Fangzheng said that he was Lian Yunzhong, except for a few old brothers. There is no one who does not believe.
Qin Fangzheng and Lian Yunzhong were really similar at first, they both had just gotten married, they had no children, they were both hot-blooded, and they both wanted to control the situation on one side.
But then, the gap between them gradually widened.
In front of him, Qin Fangzheng, who was Lian Yunzhong, divorced his old wife and had a beautiful and amorous new wife. Lian Yunzhong never married after the death of his old wife.
Qin Fangzheng, who was Lian Yunzhong in front of him, now has a son, two daughters, two grandsons, and a granddaughter. Two nieces and one niece. Lian Yunzhong is only one Lian Chen.
In front of the person, Qin Fangzheng, who was heavy and well-maintained, was well-maintained and healthy. Lian Yunzhong's body became thinner and thinner because of the blow of losing his relatives and the attack of toxins.
Qin Fangzheng, who was Lian Yunzhong in front of people, was more and more eager for power, and what he wanted was centralization. Monarchical exaltation. What Lian Yunzhong wants now is just to use powerful forces to protect the family he cares about, so that he can not kill. and do not kill.
At this moment, Qin Fangzheng told everyone that Lian Chen asked him to ask for power.
"Grandpa. It's also time for them to know that this place is ours from the Qin family or their Lian family. We have been doing it for so many years for them to die or live, and we have borne the burden of being assassinated for them. Isn't the death of the eldest uncle and the second uncle all because the enemies of the Lian family think that we are Lian family, that is, me, and there are fewer assassinations of stabbing wounds and assassinations that I have encountered since I was a child? So many lives are paid, it is they who owe us to our family, not our family! It was Qin Fangzheng's proud eldest grandson Qin Ruliang, that is, Lian Ruliang, who spoke.
The other grandson, Qin Ruxiu, is still young, in junior high school, and has a somewhat cowardly personality, hanging his head and not talking much.
Their father, Qin You, Qin Fangzheng's son, also expressed his support for beating his son, "Yes, Dad, we don't need to give the things we worked so hard to do to that kid, there's no such thing!" β
"I don't need you to say this, I also know, that kid is not a big problem, he looks amazing, in fact, he is a paper tiger, I haven't killed him for so many years, I just can see that he can't become a big climate, at most he has a little brains to make money, but the money doesn't go into our account. I'm afraid of Lian Yunzhong's old thing! Qin Fangzheng took a deep puff of his cigar and said after spitting out the smoke ring.
"That old thing really knows a bunch of powerful people, and if he wants to borrow soldiers, it's very simple. A few days ago, an old friend of his came to see him, Xuan Yitian, this name, you know, right? Qin Fangzheng swept over his son and grandson.
Except for the youngest grandson Qin Ruxiu, the son and eldest grandson all nodded with stern expressions.
"So, unless he dies, as long as he lives for a day, we can't just change to Qin!" Qin Fangzheng's words brought out some unhappiness, because he didn't want to correct the name of the Qin family earlier.
"The problem is, if the old man can't die, but the kid grows up again, grandpa, it's impossible for you not to return the rights to him, you know, he has already put forward this intention. In case a few old guys in us unanimously say that they want our Qin family to give way, at that time, what should we do? Lian Ruliang's eyes were fierce, and he broke the key to it with one word.
"Dad, this kid can't stay!" Qin You said immediately.
"Nope! Lianchen doesn't have to move, he's useless, so he needs to keep it, if you really want to do it, you have to get rid of the old man! Qin Fangzheng thought about it for a while, then suddenly gritted his teeth, looked at his son and grandson and said, "It's better to force the throne than to seek power and usurp the throne!" β
"Okay, then I'll arrange it now!" Even Ruliang can't wait. He was worried that his grandfather would regret it, and he had said the same thing for several years, and even Yunzhong was not still alive.
"No, wait a little longer!" Qin Fangzheng really stopped him immediately, "This matter is not so simple, I'll plan it again!" β
Qin You and Lian Ruliang glanced at each other in disappointment. (To be continued......)
