Chapter 557: The Only Hope
Walking in the mansion, Qin Shi enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the mansion with great interest.
Truth be told, he's never been so laid-back since he's remembered.
Every day, he is either learning etiquette, the art of war, these messy things, or practicing martial arts in the martial arts hall or going to the library to read, the only leisure is to go out shopping with Qin Fei'er once every half a month, this is also the happiest time for him, every time he sees Qin Fei'er jumping around in front of him, holding those newly listed jewelry and rouge and asking himself if he looks good, it is Qin Shi's happiest time.
His mother left early, and his father was usually busy with official business, and even if he could say a few words, it was on a very formal occasion, and in this case, his own sister, who was the same mother as him, naturally became his only relative. To tell the truth, although the Qin family is big, only the father and sister are really regarded as relatives by Qin Shi, as for the others...... Forget it, don't talk about it.
Just when Qin Shi was sighing about his life, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared behind him.
"Young family master, family master, please come over." Qin Shi was not frightened in the slightest because of the sudden appearance of the other party, or rather, he had long been accustomed to it.
This ghostly man is his father's personal guard, he doesn't have his own name, only a code name called Xuanying, and he has no identity, just like a real shadow, he has been following his father's side, and he has been notified by him if his father has anything to find him in the past, so he has long been used to his habits.
"Okay, I see, or the same location?"
"Yes." The figure replied, then bowed respectfully.
The next moment, a dodge disappeared in place.
"Tsk, it seems that today's relaxation can't be put down." Stretching his waist, Qin Shi smiled helplessly. Most of the reason why my father looked for him was because of the elders of the clan. Qin Shi had always known that he had oppressed this group of elders who had long been ambitious too hard, but who would have thought that it would be to such an extent. As soon as the news of their abolition came out, they couldn't wait to do something the next day, which is really, I don't know if I don't try, and I was shocked when I tried it. But no matter what, the happier they are now, the better it is for themselves. Take these dissident homes one day earlier
If you find out, you will be able to resume your cultivation one day earlier. Thinking like this, Qin Shi's footsteps turned, and he quickly turned along the road that extended in all directions in Fuzhong.
If there is a master who is proficient in formations at this time, he will find that the twists and turns of the corridor of the Qin family have vaguely formed a formation, and they can be combined into different formations according to different routes, and the heritage of the Qin family can be seen. At this time, Qin Shi was walking through the corridors, seemingly aimless, but in fact there were other mysteries.
Da!
Taking the last step heavily, Qin Shi slowly raised his head and looked at the rockery not far away. I saw that the rockery gradually became illusory, like the moon in the glasses in the water. Gradually, I don't know when, the tall rockery disappeared without a trace, and then a luxuriously decorated attic appeared out of thin air.
Qin Shi, who had already seen countless times, did not feel the slightest surprise, and walked towards the attic with an indifferent face. In the pavilion in front of the attic, Qin Yi was sipping tea with great interest, and a thick stack of official documents was placed in front of him.
"Father." Qin Shi stepped forward and saluted respectfully, with the white clothes, he had a kind of aristocratic temperament.
"Well, there are no outsiders here, only our father and son, these false courtesies will be waived, you are uncomfortable, and I look awkward." Qin Yi poured a cup of tea for Qin Shi and said slowly. "Hehe, dad still understands me." Qin Shi suddenly let go. As soon as he picked up the teacup on the table, he didn't taste it, and as soon as he raised his head, a cup of good tea was poured down by him like boiled water. Then he took a bunch of grapes from the fruit bowl, picked one and threw it into his mouth, and at the same time sat down with a big thorn, one leg on the armrest, swaying leisurely, and the peel in his mouth spit on the ground at will.
The corners of Qin Yi's eyes jumped. His son is simply a wonderful, Sven up, the temperament and conversation of the nobles in that body, even if it is the emperor today, it can't be compared, but if it is smiling, it is also incomparable.
"Ahem, I asked you to let go of it a little bit, but I didn't let you let it go like this." Qin Yi coughed in embarrassment.
"Uh......" Qin Shi awkwardly stopped the movement in his hand, thought about it, took his leg off the armrest, and then sat down on the chair with his whole body, and gestured with his eyes, "Is this okay?" Qin Yi could only smile bitterly and nodded.
"Okay, let's talk, why are you calling me?" Qin Shi asked while eating grapes. Qin Yi naturally knew the priority of the matter, and no longer entangled in Qin Shi's attitude, he pushed the official document in front of him and said.
"Look, this is the paperwork that the elders and deacons handed me yesterday afternoon and this morning." Qin Shi glanced at the mountain-like official document in front of him in surprise and said in surprise. "So much? They're too positive, aren't they? ”
"Who's to say it isn't? Most of these official documents were they stayed up all night, changed them dozens of times, and then sent them before dawn, to be honest, they have been in the Qin family for so many years, even when they fought with me back then, I have never seen them so active, you kid has suppressed them too hard over the years. The teacup that Qin Yi brought to his lips stopped and said with a wry smile. Qin Shi smiled disdainfully when he heard this, not taking Qin Yi's words to heart at all. Ever since he was named the Imperial Historian when he was ten years old, he had a suppressive attitude towards these elders of the Qin family, almost taking back all the power in their hands, forcing them to obediently listen to the Qin family. In his words, these elders and deacons are just the domestic slaves of the Qin family, they don't need power, they don't need to interfere with the affairs of the Qin family, they just need to be obedient. To put it simply, it is distrust, Qin Shi does not believe that these people can be truly loyal to the Qin family.
"The so-called loyalty is only because the benefits given by the other party are not enough." This is the principle that he has always believed in and adhered to. Born in the Qin family, he is the only son of the Qin family's sect, if he wants to live, the first thing he needs to learn is "distrust", not trusting anyone, and maintaining at least half of his vigilance against anyone, only in this way can he survive in this dangerous environment. It was this "distrust" that allowed him to pick up his life countless times. I think that at the beginning, when he was still young, his father arranged for him several small family members of the same age, who could not only take care of him, but also play with him to kill two birds with one stone, and several people were also small, but later after his talent was shown, an elder bought all of them with a lot of money just in case, and then let them collectively poison their own food, and after they found out, they actually held knives against themselves for money, and finally had no choice, Qin Shi activated a Gu worm that had been planted in their bodies long before, Let them experience the taste of ten thousand insect phagogens.
