At eight o'clock in the evening, Guan Luo appeared on time in the banquet hall of the General's Mansion dressed in black.

He went directly from the shooting range, so the heavy gunfire on his body had not yet dissipated, and his face was cold, and he was full of murderous aura when he stood in front of the people.

It's just that there are only a few people in the huge banquet hall, and all the people sitting in Yunling are a few local directors of Yunling. It is still the usual long table, divided into meals, and the dishes, chopsticks and meals have come up, the first is the position of the closer, and the bottom is lined up according to the generation and sits back.

When Guan Luo entered, everyone was already seated.

In the past few days, Yun Ling has been making a lot of noise, and Guan Luo suddenly convened a meeting, and everyone has already guessed eight or nine. So there was no sound in the hall for a while.

Guan Luo walked to his position, did not sit down in time, and swept the people under his eyes with a cold light.

When the old man was still in power, there were nine principals in Yunling alone, one returned to heaven a few years ago, that is, Du Hong's father, and Chi Feng was sent to Yunnan by the old man, and the other two were kicked out by Guan Luo according to the rules because of "crimes", and all the territory under his hands was taken back by Guan Luo, so now there are only five left.

But these five are enough to choke.

It stands to reason that there can only be one principal in a place. The five entrenched in a city are naturally bumped and bumped, but there is no way, this is an old problem left over from the past, and these five are all Guan Luo's "uncle" generation, with deep roots and entrenched forces, and he can't move for a while.

As for why there are so many people in charge in one place in Yunling?

That has to be traced back to the time when Jiurongtai was first built, at that time, a few people followed Guan Zhaorong to fight the country, and Yunling was the birthplace of Jiurongtai's power, so these people gradually took root in Yunling, and when Jiurongtai had a certain scale, these people were not young, and their wives and children were all in Yunling, so they were naturally reluctant to move their nests.

is still there to be their "merit", after all, they are "veterans of the opening dynasty". Even if they are by generation, they have to be assigned places, so the old man divided Yun Ling into districts. Plus several county-level cities under the periphery. Yun Ling was divided into nine districts, and several "uncles" were each in charge of a district, similar to a hall, and they could collect people and set up a field by themselves.

Originally, the old man did this because he took into account the kindness he followed back then, but he didn't think that everyone could work together when he was in distress, and when the days were better, he began to make his own little calculations.

Most people's hearts are always like this, selfish desires are endless, and gradually the people on the side of Jiurong Tai Yunling began to be disorganized, which was also one of the purposes for Guan Zhaorong to use Guan Luo to "purge" back then.

The reason is also obvious, the old man is afraid that the unclean things in the hands of these people will one day become the cause of the fall of Jiurongtai, and he is afraid that one day someone will be unwilling to "rise up" and snatch his main position.

That's why the old man moved the idea of "washing his hands in a golden basin", and Guan Luo was selected by the old man in that competition, drove Chi Feng, disintegrated the Du family's forces, and then found a way to deal with the other two principals.

At that time, it only took two years for Guan Luo to take half of Yunling's local forces into his own hands, and the other five were naturally indignant, but they couldn't do anything with him.

Then the old man died, Guan Luo naturally ascended the throne, those uncomfortable "uncles" sometimes give him stumbling blocks, but helpless because he is getting full-fledged, acting accurately and ruthlessly, naturally no one dares to pick the basket again, and everyone has been safe and quiet these years.

But now there are five seats at the long table, but only four people are seated.

The chair on Guan Luo's left hand was actually empty, and that was Yun Ling Zhao Changde's position.

Zhao Changde was also one of the credulities of the old man back then, he entered Jiurongtai at the age of fifteen, and when he first entered Jiurongtai, he followed Old Man Du, and he was the person who was pulled out by Old Man Du.

When Mr. Du was alive, Zhao Changde was already in the position of the principal, and he was on an equal footing with Mr. Du, but he still respected Mr. Du as "Master Du" and respected Du Hong as his sister.

This is out of sincerity, so that after the Du family's forces were disintegrated, Zhao Changde has been against Guan Luo, but Guan Luo has not touched him for so many years, and he has reserved the position on the left hand side of the long table, just to respect him.

In the final analysis, people on the road have seen too much life and death, and the number of lives is looked down upon, but only the two sons of "love and righteousness" are important.

Guan Luo has always felt that Zhao Changde is the most affectionate of these "uncles", but it is a pity that he helps the Du family wholeheartedly.

Although Du Hong took over as the head of the office for a short time, the old man finally resigned Du Hong from the position of head on the grounds that "there is no precedent for the heroine in Jiurongtai".

Then Du Hong followed Chi Feng to Yunnan, but he was not a good man, Chi Feng was lustful by nature, and Du Hong's stomach was not angry, and he couldn't give birth to a son and a half daughter after carrying the title of "Mrs. Chi" for many years, Chi Feng became more and more ignorant of restraint when he was outside with flowers and grass, until Fan Lili was pregnant with a son...

This was originally an old account of old grudges, marriage is a mundane matter, I can't figure out who is right and who is wrong, and if it is left in the homes of ordinary people, it will be noisy and noisy, but it is Chi Feng and Du Hong, both of whom are people who have a foothold on the tip of the knife, not to mention Du Hong's temperament...

Guan Xiao Leng Guang swept the empty position on the left hand side again, and finally said the first sentence: "Uncle De won't come!" ”

No one dared to speak out for a while.

Guan Liu's tone did not use interrogative sentences, did not use rhetorical questions, but directly affirmative sentences, which sounded as if he already knew it in advance.

"Since you don't come, then remove his chair and dinner plate, and don't occupy a place in vain!" After saying that, Guan Luo summoned Ya Lan over, and Ya Lan took the order and directly moved the chair out.

At this point, the seat on the left hand side of the main seat was empty, and a few people peeked at each other, and no one dared to squeak. Tricks around the music.

Guan Luo was not in a hurry to sit down and raised a hand.

"Ya Yuan, serve the wine."

Two rows of waiters came in from outside, and brought the pre-poured wine to the principals.

For a moment, everyone had an extra glass of wine in front of them.

Guan Luo raised the wine glass above his head, and everyone in the audience immediately got up.

He was not in a hurry, so he took the glass of wine and faced everyone in the audience.

"Thank you for taking the time to eat this meal, usually everyone is busy with their own things, although they are in Yunling, but there are not many opportunities to get together for a meal, today I just have time, the occasion is also suitable, I will first salute your uncles, thanks to your uncles' assistance and care in the past few years, I will do it first, everyone is free!"

When the words fell, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, crisply and neatly.

The uncles below were a little confused for a while, and they really didn't know what medicine was sold in Guan Luo's gourd, but who dared to be "casual", so they all drank a drop from their wine glasses.

Guan Luo's face was still the same indifferent and calm, but the corners of his lips were raised, and a wicked smile was raised.

A glass of wine was drunk, and the waiters behind him collected their respective cups.

Then Guan Luo raised a hand again: "Yayu, tea!" ”

Ya Yu received the order and shouted at the door, and two teams of waiters rushed in and put the brewed tea bowls in front of everyone.

Guan Luo lifted the lid of the bowl and raised the bowl above his head again.

"Wine is righteousness, tea is the way, and the word morality is the root of maintaining Jiurongtai for generations, so I also respect you for this cup of tea, I hope you will work in your place, don't forget the word morality!" Guan Luo's tone of voice was still so unhurried, and after speaking, he drank all the tea in the cup, and finally put the empty bowl on the table.

The palms of the few people below began to sweat, and they hesitated for a few seconds to drink the tea.

It's just a cup of wine and a cup of tea, but Guan Luo's intention is still not real, this is the most important place, so no one dares to speak first for a while, just wait to see which play Guan Luo is going to play.

Unexpectedly, Guan Xiao just smiled faintly after drinking the tea, beckoned the waiter behind him to collect the teacup, and then bowed slightly humbly: "It's okay, let's sit down and eat." ”

“……”

Then everyone present was stunned, and even Ya Yu was a little confused.

In the evening, he ordered Yun Ling's principals to gather for discussion, thinking that there was really something important, but now he didn't have any substantive words, drank wine and toasted tea, and then ate?

Just to eat?

The principals were even more stunned, but Guan Luo had already sat down steadily in a gaze, raised one hand slightly, and closed down: "Sit down, eat!" So he picked up his chopsticks and ate them first.

A few uncles in the audience didn't hesitate, they sat down separately, and they all took chopsticks.

There was only the sound of chopsticks and dishes colliding in the hall for a while, and there was no speech, this was an extremely depressing dinner, but Guan Luo ate very safely, and when the last soup was served, he also boasted: "This is a new dish in the General's Mansion recently, and I am also the first time to come back to eat, you can taste it, if the taste is not good, just mention it, and go back and ask the chef to improve it." ”

The light tone seemed to be as if he was really just to invite everyone to a meal, and several directors in the audience saw him like this, and the mood of the tense night was also slightly relaxed, and one of them really tasted the soup decently, and commented after drinking.

As a result, as soon as the bowl of soup was drunk, two teams of people rushed in from outside the hall and surrounded the long table.

Only then did the four principals realize that they seemed to have been cast a net, and they were caught in an urn!

Immediately, someone jumped up from the chair, especially the uncle who commented on the soup just now was the most arrogant, and directly pointed at Guan Luo's nose and shouted: "Guan Jiu, what the do you mean?" ”

Guan Luo was not in a hurry, he still sat on the chair, calmly put down the soup bowl in his hand, took a napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth, and then slowly raised his eyelids, his eyes were not shocked.

"Don't be nervous, uncles, it's a rare opportunity to get together, if nothing happens, I can let you go back tomorrow morning!"

"Tomorrow morning? Damn, Guan Jiu, your wings are stiff, come play this with us? ”

"No, you are elders, so I just want to keep you here for dinner!"

"Dinner? Dinner with supper and tomorrow's morning tea? You're out of the woods! The most arrogant "uncle" slapped the table, they were all so old and angry, Guan was a little helpless, and finally stood up with the table.

For a while, the audience was silent again.

Guan Luo has practiced the aura of convergence in his body to perfection over the years, and at this time, he only needs to go to that station, his eyes are tight, and the momentum of the main position can be fully revealed.

"Rules, okay, since you mentioned the rules to me, then let's talk about the rules!" Guan Luo's fingers tapped on the tabletop, and the color in his eyebrows gradually became clear.

"Jiurongtai has always acted according to the rules, and there is one thing that everyone should not forget. The so-called grudges have masters, grievances and grievances are clear, and they will never affect their wives and children, and everyone here must know it. ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly fell silent, and even the uncle who was arguing and arrogant just now was out of breath.

In the past two days, Guan Luo has made a big move to find a woman, and this matter is no secret in Jiurongtai, but I really didn't expect Guan Luo to put on a big feast to bring this matter to the table.

"Uncle Chi back then, he tied up the people around me, and Uncle Chi died in the back alley of the Shuitian Bathhouse afterwards, and the entire Jiurong platform probably thought that I sent someone to do it, and I didn't explain it, because there was no need to explain it at all, but now someone has to repeat the mistakes of the past, okay, then let's go over the old accounts!"

Guan Luo held his hands on the table and paused suddenly.

The people below all held their breath and waited for what he would say next, but after a few seconds, Guan slightly looked up, and there was a bit of regret in his eyes.

"I'm very sad that Uncle Chi died in Yunling, he has been in Jiurongtai for thirty years, and when the old man left, he repeatedly asked me to stabilize him, but in the end, he turned out to be under my nose, because I was not rigorous enough, so people took advantage of loopholes and were used in vain."

As soon as he spoke, the four people below were even more misty.

Guan Luo knew that this would be the reaction, but he didn't wear it, and only said: "Jiurongtai has always been disciplined, Uncle Chi violated discipline first, and I sent a post to let him go back to Yunling in advance and just do things according to the rules, and how to punish and deal with it later has its own rules to follow, but if he doesn't come back, he disobeys the order first, and then Fan Lili suddenly died in a car accident in Tengchong, only two or three days before and after, it should be difficult to have such a coincidence when you think about it." ”

When Guan Luo said this, some people already knew that this was borrowing Fan Lili, who was pregnant with Liujia, to intensify the contradiction between Guan Luo and Chi Feng.

"You should know the rest of the matter, Chi Feng tied up the two of me in a fit of anger, fired a shot, ran away, and died in the back alley of the Shuitian Bathhouse not long after, the police investigated that he accidentally fell to his death during the inspection, and the case was closed."

After that, Chi Feng sparked, the funeral was held in Yunling, Du Hong took Tongtong to worship as a surviving person, and there was a big fuss at the funeral.

Everyone present also knew that it was rumored to be a topic of conversation at that time, and Tang Jingcheng also showed up at that funeral, knowing that there was another woman next to Guan Jiu in addition to Lou Qingxiao.

"But once is a coincidence, what about twice? Not necessarily! What's more, what is the water and sky bath? Under the name of Jiurongtai, whose people are in charge? ”

Guan nodded slightly, and everyone's eyes looked at the empty spot on his left, and they all gasped for a moment.

No wonder at the beginning of dinner, he had to say firmly: "Uncle De will not come", and at the end of the day, it turned out that the Shuitian Bathhouse had stabbed the basket, and the Shuitian Bathhouse had always been in charge of Zhao Changde.

In connection with what Guan Luo said just now, Fan Lili's death, the relationship between Zhao Changde and the Du family, and finally Chi Feng died in the back alley of the Shuitian Bathhouse, as if all the mysteries were solved at once.

How could it be? The faces of the four principals were full of horror and a little uncertain, after all, this answer was too embarrassing.

Du Hong, she is Chi Fengming's wife, although the relationship is average, but the so-called one-day husband and wife for a hundred days, how did she get such a field in the end?

Some people didn't believe it, some people were amazed, and finally someone asked: "Okay, even if Chi Feng's death was related to Lao Zhao back then, then why did you leave all of us here?" We weren't involved in it. ”

"Yes, we have nothing to do with this matter, not to mention that Lao Chi has been dead for so many years, what are you? Settle accounts after the fall? Someone else chimed in.

Guan smiled lightly, frowning: "Settle accounts after the autumn?" If I really calculated this account, I could have abolished Zhao Changde three years ago, and Du Hong would never have lived until now, but after all, Old Man Du had done a lot of things for Jiurongtai during his lifetime, and he was the most upright among the uncles of your generation, but he gave birth to such a ruthless daughter! ”

The words came out of Guan Luo's mouth word by word, and every sentence was beady, and the four principals below were a little ashamed.

Guan was a little breathless.

Ya Lan looked at his back behind him, and for a moment he felt that this man who had always been as strong as a stone had a sense of vulnerability in front of people.

It's actually hard to sit on the throne that everyone has to fight for, you have to weigh the pros and cons, and you have to find the most appropriate point to deal with everything.

Ya Yu didn't know that Guan Luo had already seen everything, Fan Lili's death, Chi Feng's sudden death from a building, and even the secret connection between Zhao Changde and Du Hong, he knew everything clearly, but he kept it in his heart.

No wonder the Dao Master said that Guan Jiu's heart was hidden by him in the eighteenth layer of hell, ruthless, accurate, and thorough!

"Originally, for Old Man Du's sake, I should have spared Du Hong's life, but she shouldn't have broken the rules of Jiurongtai."

The so-called "broken rules" should have been heard by all of you.

Fan Qingyan, the director of Yunnan films, united with Su Fan's second young master to smuggle and sell drugs, Guan Luo went to Yunnan a while ago to "clean up the portal", Fan Qingyan escaped, this matter has been spread in Jiurongtai, after which someone saw Fan Qingyan appear in Yunling, Du Hong also came here, Shen Chunguang was taken away, the day before yesterday, Guan slightly led his subordinates to search Bailu Villa, but the result was that people went to the empty building, and everyone present was an old fox who had been mixed on the road for decades.

No wonder Guan Luo just said words like "don't affect his wife and children, repeat the mistakes of the past", in the final analysis, it was Fan Qingyan and Du Hong who kidnapped his woman.

"I don't know what Du Hong's purpose is for doing this, and I don't know who else in Yunling is helping her against me besides Zhao Changde, but Fan Qingyan has been hiding in Yunling for so long, and he can still kidnap people from under my nose, which means that there must be someone helping them! I invite you here today, if you cooperate, it will be to have a meal with Heqi, and you will still be my uncles in the future, the position will remain the same, it should be yours or yours, if you don't cooperate......"

Guan rubbed his fingers slightly, and his gaze swept over the position of his left hand.

"If you don't cooperate, I don't mind removing a few more chairs from this long table, so you uncles weigh it yourself!"

At this point, Guan Liu's intention is quite obvious, whether it is a temptation or a net collection, I am afraid that the situation in Jiurongtai will be very different after this night.

Standing behind Guan Luo, Ya Liu's legs and feet were already weak, and he didn't know anything in advance, so he didn't know that Guan Luo had silently laid out this game of chess.

The four principals were even more panicked.

Guan Luo slowly sat down in his seat again, the lust in his eyes just now was all gone, and he changed his usual indifferent face, but raised his hand: "The dishes are cold, take them down, serve tea and snacks!" ”

This is really a posture of being accompanied by supper and tomorrow's morning tea, and it is also a good hospitality.

As the old saying goes, salute first and then soldier, he is a soldier while saluting!

The night light in the VIP hall of the General's Mansion was bright, and the outer compartment began to act aggressively, starting with Zhao Changde's Water and Sky Bathhouse, and the five principals did not let go of any of the territory, and the people below interrogated one by one, whether it was a person or a ghost tonight.

As Guan Luo said when he gave the order: "I want to see people in life, and I want to see corpses in death!" ”

There was a large-scale activity, and the entire Jiurong Terrace was full of soldiers.

After tossing for most of the night, all kinds of bulls and horses gradually appeared, and there were too many people involved in this matter, and the collusion of interests in the shadows surfaced little by little.

The first to be interrogated was the driver of the red Santana, and it was Zhao Changde's person as a surprise, but the other party only admitted that he asked him to follow Shen Chunguang and find an opportunity to kidnap her, but he was taken by another taxi first.

In other words, the red Santana and the taxi "driver" were not all the way, which was also expected by Guan Liu.

Later, someone confessed that the taxi driver's violent death due to "drug overdose" in a small hotel was caused by man-made, and the other party was Ye Qin's former subordinate, and after the matter was completed, he got a sum of money and left Yunling.

Things have come to an end little by little, and it's pretty much the same as Guan Luo had envisioned before.

Zhao Changde and Du Hong's people tied up Shen Chunguang, and Ye Qin was at least an accomplice, Guan Luo had always disliked to do things that he was not sure of, and now the evidence was in hand.

The sky was about to dawn, and the atmosphere in the VIP room of the General's Mansion was deserted, and after a night of investigation and purge, most of the truth had been clarified.

The four old masters sweated for half a night, and they were afraid that they would find out their heads in the end, but fortunately, except for Zhao Changde, the rest did not have any big baskets.

At about five o'clock in the morning, Guan Luo's mobile phone rang, and a text message came from outside, with a few short words: "Zhao Changde has been controlled." ”

Guan slightly stared at the screen of his mobile phone, pinched most of the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray, got up and stood up from the chair, and the hall was dead silent.

The four principals in the audience were all angry.

Guan Luo smiled faintly: "The tea is cold, so I won't leave you for breakfast, let's disperse." ”

After holding their breath all night, they finally relaxed, and several directors didn't dare to linger any longer, and immediately dragged their bodies out of the VIP hall after staying up all night.

There were only two people left in the hall, Guan Luo and Ya Yuan, the long table was empty, the tea cup on it had long been sour, and the fruits and snacks on the plate had not been touched.

Who dares to move, on such a ridiculous night, I feel that the air in the entire Yunling is thinner by three points.

Ya Yue also sweated all night, and now she finally had to breathe a sigh of relief, looking at the people who were still standing in front of the long table.

"Brother Jiu, next..."

"I'm going to meet someone next!"
