Bai Qiaoxuan replied: "Just ten days ago, Qu Zeng fell out with his father, and the Overseers should know that Qu Zeng lost his mother since he was a child, and although he was protected by his uncle, he was not defeated by his father's favoritism for the mother and son in the second room. ”

Lu Tiansheng was even more surprised, "Their father and son have already fallen out?" My people haven't even told me yet! ”

Bai Qiaoxuan pondered and asked, "The Overseers haven't gotten the news for so long, could it be that something happened to the people over there?" ”

Lu Tiansheng thought for a moment and said, "It's possible, I'll send someone to investigate later." Did Qu Zeng flee to your Baijiawan? ”

Bai Qiaoxuan nodded, "I have always crossed paths with him, and I can be called friends." In addition, the closest place to him is Baijiawan, so he came looking for me. ”

There was suspicion in Lu Tiansheng's eyes, "Even if you know the news of their father-son breakup, there is no reason for you to come to me for no reason to send me a letter and tell me what you think." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled and asked, "Have the Overseers heard of the Shuoji Rebellion?" ”

"Of course I've heard of a war that caused a sensation in Pudong decades ago......" Lu Tiansheng had already guessed what Bai Qiaoxuan meant, "Do you want me to help Qu Zeng repeat the Shuoji Rebellion of the year?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan shook his head, "Don't the Overseers think that the chaos in the Qu family now is very similar to the scene before the Shuoji Rebellion?" Qiu Jiyuan and Tong Guangting, who were the eldest sons of the concubines, were both young and lost their mothers, and their fathers had their own favorite concubines and concubines, their two sons-in-law were not taken seriously, and even oppressed by their fathers and cousins from time to time. ”

Lu Tiansheng suddenly smiled and said: "I don't know if there is really such a thing as a curse in the world, I heard that they used capital punishment at that time, and those people cursed Qiu Jiyuan and Tong Guangting while being tortured The heirs are thin, and the country has only died in three generations, but I didn't expect that this sentence has really been fulfilled now." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan said: "Frying with the same root is always desolate. But for onlookers, it's an opportunity. Since the Overseer's ascension to the throne, although Posy has been nominally a unit, the Overseers should have understood that the name can never be extended beyond reality. The Qi Feng Qu family, the Tongyi Xu family, and the Guanghui Ji family are close to each other, and the three clans are connected, and the forces are intertwined, and they have always been the overseer's henchmen. ”

Lu Tiansheng said lightly: "You are right, I have been governed by them all these years, but because I am worried that there will be a big war with Pudong at some point, and my own affairs are also a headache." Now that there is no hidden danger in Pudong, it is time to free up your hands to clean them up. Okay, I can promise you to help Qu Zeng raise troops, but it's just after the army starts......"

Bai Qiaoxuan continued: "Don't worry, even if there is no conflict with his father, Qu Zeng has no ill will towards the Overseer. Not to mention, the Overseers can help him turn his fortune around! He will definitely become a capable commander under the command of the Heavenly Army in the future. ”

Lu Tiansheng asked again: "Since you have already thought of a way to deal with the Qu family, then the Xu family and the Ji family should have also thought of it......

"The Overseer is right, the Ji family doesn't have to think about it anymore, they are the weakest of the three, this time they can come to congratulate the second young master, it means that they are already worried, I think as long as the Overseer talks about coercion and temptation, they can be cleaned up. So what we have to focus on dealing with now is the Qu family and the Xu family, and the strategy that Qiao Xuan thought of is to attack and reward, attack the Qu family, and reward the Xu family. ”

Lu Tiansheng narrowed his eyelids slightly, "Discord plan? Yes, yes, what do you think I should reward them? ”

Bai Qiaoxuan didn't answer and asked: "I think the biggest headache for the Overseers now is to choose the ruler of Pudong, right?" ”

Lu Tiansheng couldn't help but stare at Bai Qiaoxuan deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Yes." I've always thought about how to capture Pudong, but I never thought that Qiu Zeyuan would give Pudong away, all this came too fast, I really didn't think about who Pudong should be handed over, if this problem is not handled well, I am afraid that Pudong will soon fall into the predicament that has entangled Pu Xi for a hundred years, and then the huge wave will set off, and the first one to be engulfed is the Lu family. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan said calmly: "It stands to reason that the first thing that comes to mind when the Overseer gains should be his sons. Unfortunately, the Overseers, like Qu Li, have one of the four sons who is the most beloved, so you won't be completely at ease with Pu Dong. ”

Lu Tiansheng's eyes swept straight into Bai Qiaoxuan's eyes, but unfortunately it was too quiet for him to see his true intentions, "I think if you don't answer me a question, we won't be able to continue talking, why help me?" Don't tell me it's to repair the relationship between our two families. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled: "It's not just for the relationship between our two families, but because of a private matter, Qiao Xuan's own private matter, and it is also the second big thing that Qiao Xuan wants to talk to the Overseer." ”

"Oh? What kind of private matter can be called a big thing? ”

"Qiao Xuan wants to marry Ling Yan, the sister of the eldest young master, Miss Lu Xi, I hope to get your approval."

Lu Tiansheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed, "Although you and I have only met a few times, you have really given me a lot of surprises, and each time I am more and more surprised." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled on his lips, but did not reply.

Lu Tiansheng thought that he would be a little panicked, after all, Xi'er is now the most noble woman in Puxin Prefecture, and there are many men who want to marry her, so there is no need to marry a person like him who lives in a corner. It was impossible for him to fail to think of this with his resourcefulness, but Lu Tiansheng saw that he was still sitting there calmly, and suddenly felt that he was very similar to himself when he was young, not impatient, neither humble nor arrogant, and couldn't help but glance at him again. Because the arrogance of a person from a wealthy background and the arrogance of a person from a humble background are the same truth, both are the natural manifestations of people, and only when people overcome this state of mind, can they get rid of the shackles of the world and achieve great achievements.

Although Lu Tiansheng has recognized Bai Qiaoxuan's ability in his heart, he can afford Xi'er's life, but in the end, he is his most beloved daughter, Lu Tiansheng always feels that it is a bit hasty to say that it is okay to say it now, and to decide her life's events.

Thinking of this, Lu Tiansheng said: "Xi'er has a special status, her marriage is not just a nod from me, you also need to let herself and her mother nod." ”

Bai Qiaoxuan said with a smile: "The meaning of the overseer, Qiao Xuan understands. Qiao Xuan will go to the main courtyard of the Overseer's Mansion to visit Mrs. Zun. ”

Lu Tiansheng was shocked when he heard him only mention Zhong Shunhua, "Could it be that you have already ...... You've ......"

Bai Qiaoxuan bowed slightly, "Qiao Xuan dared to propose to the Overseer today, Xi'er knows." ”

"Ciel? Are you all that familiar? You call her by her first name? When did you guys come together? I, as a father, don't even know it! ”

Bai Qiaoxuan said with a faint smile: "The Overseer is busy with official business, and the two of us have been undecided, so we ......"

Lu Tiansheng smiled and sighed: "It turns out that you have discussed it, alas...... Ciel's ...... kid"

"Don't blame her, it's all Qiao Xuan's bad that makes you sad."

Lu Tiansheng waved his hand, "Let's go, it's also what I've been letting her travel away all these years...... So be it, you find time to go to the Overseer's House, and I'll talk to Ciel and her mother later. Let's talk about the Xu family first......"

A smile flashed in Bai Qiaoxuan's eyes, and he said respectfully, "Yes, Overseer." Qiao Xuan was foolish and guessed that the reason why the Overseers would have a headache for Pudong's jurisdiction was because no matter which son it handed over, there would be trouble. Do you think that if Pu Dong is handed over to the eldest young master, the second young master will have no place in the future; handed it over to the second young master, and I was afraid that he would be powerless and powerless, and he would be burdened by the situation in the end; handed it over to the third young master, worried that he was inexperienced and his ability was limited; handed it over to the fourth young master, because he was afraid that he would be too young and the lord of the country would be in danger. ”

Lu Tiansheng sighed, "It's a pity for my son...... has always had no ambitions, just wants to be trapped on that remote dust island forever, where did he think about the truth that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop? Where did you ever think that my father, who could protect him for a while, couldn't protect him for a lifetime? ”

Bai Qiaoxuan lowered his head slightly, so that Lu Tiansheng could not see his gaze, and tried his best to stabilize his voice and said, "So the Overseer helped him marry a woman who could help him succeed, and even had the idea of handing over Pu Dong to her to take care of it." ”

Lu Tiansheng had already comprehended Bai Qiaoxuan's wisdom, and he was not surprised by this, and said directly: "You are half right. I do have plans to let her help her succeed, but it would be too early to hand over Pu Dong to her now. Although she is smart and tenacious, it is far from enough to govern a land, and seniority, experience, and prestige are all problems. ”

"The Overseer intends to ......"

"For the time being, Pudong will be handed over to the He family, the Huo family and the Guo family to take care of together, and the three families will take turns to take charge until the capital is moved."

Bai Qiaoxuan knew in his heart, these three families have a close relationship with the Tong family, and their power in Pudong is deep and strong, if Lu Tiansheng wants to leave a way back for Qing Ziting, it is more appropriate to hand over Pudong to them, but he is afraid that the family will sit big and override the monarch, so he would rather the political situation in Pudong be a little chaotic, and let them take turns to take charge, so that they cooperate with each other and contain each other, and none of them can threaten the Lu family. As for the relocation of the capital, now Puxin Prefecture has been merged into one, whether it is Jindu or Yejin, it is no longer suitable to be the capital of Puxin Prefecture, so it is imperative to move the capital, and the relocation of the capital is an extremely huge project, and it is absolutely impossible to complete it without three years. As long as Qing Ziting and Tong Yuqing can stay in Jindu, Lu Tiansheng will have enough time to persuade his son, * daughter-in-law.

"Qiao Xuan just said that what he wanted to oversee to reward the Xu family was Pudong's right to steward. You think, the Xu family has been in Tongyi for generations, and has little contact with Pudong, and only knows the surface of the situation there, if you hand over Pudong to the Xu family, first, it can create an opportunity for future suppression, and there are relatives of the second young grandmother, just find a mistake and let them not turn over, and second, you give them such an important place, what do you think the Qu family will think? ”

Lu Tiansheng was still worried, "Your discordant plan is good, but the person in charge of the Xu family is not a fool, what if he refuses to accept this errand?" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan nodded, "That's right, it's indeed possible that he won't take this hot potato, but as long as the Overseer's order reaches Tongyi, our goal has been achieved." Whether he accepts it or not, it will plant doubts in Qu Li's heart, do you think a person who is obsessed with beauty will think too much? Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if he really has this mind, thinking that this is a discordant plan, the Qu family is in chaos, the Heavenly Army is pressing the border, and the overseers want to deal with the injured Qu family and the complete Xu family, so he is not afraid of anything......"

Lu Tiansheng's brows finally stretched, "That's right, as long as the Qu family is not the former Qu family, there is nothing worth me to worry about." Qiao Xuan, you really helped me get rid of a heart disease......"

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled slightly: "It is Qiao Xuan's honor to be able to relieve the overseer's worries. It's been a long time since the Overseers have been bothered for a long time, and it's time for Qiao Xuan to ask for a cup of wine. ”

Lu Tiansheng laughed, "Yes, yes, yes, you haven't even served a cup of tea when you have been here for a long time, it's really rude, let's go back to the wedding banquet." ”

Since his father left with Bai Qiaoxuan, although Qing Ziting was toasting, his heart was no longer there, and now when he saw his father coming back with a smile, he was even more confused. While telling himself that if he was one step too late, his sister would be doomed, and at the same time telling himself that if he confessed to his father, Ruo Jia would die without a whole body.

"Husband, husband!"

Tong Yuqing's voice pulled Qing Ziting back, and he found that the person opposite was shocked, and his hands were shaking, and most of the wine in the cup had spilled.

Gu Weihong said with a smile: "General Sun guards the southern border for the overseer, and the second young master values General Sun too much." ”

Although Sun Yi was very dissatisfied with Qing Ziting's absent-minded attitude, he still smiled for the sake of Gu Weihong's face: "The second young master values it so much, I am really flattered here." ”

Tong Yuqing poured Qing Ziting full of wine again, Qing Ziting cheered up and toasted Sun Yi with a glass of wine, Gu Weiwei saw Qing Ziting's vague steps, and hurriedly supported him and asked, "How is it?" Would you like to take a break? ”

Qing Ziting shook his head hard, but at this time, Bai Qiaoxuan stepped forward and asked with concern, "Second Young Master, is this not strong enough to drink?" Why don't you go back to your room and rest first? ”

Lu Tiansheng saw his son's face, and also said: "Zhi'er, if you can't hold on, the rest of the fathers can deal with it, you can go back first." ”

Qing Ziting had a splitting headache as soon as she heard Bai Qiaoxuan's voice, Tong Yuqing saw that Qing Ziting was obviously exhausted, and he still wanted to come forward to provoke, but he was annoyed, so he helped Qing Ziting and asked softly, "Are you okay?" ”

Qing Ziting thought that even if it wasn't for his reputation or his father's face, he had to support Ruo Yuan's heart, so he covered her jade hand and said with a smile: "I'm fine." ”

The gloom in Bai Qiaoxuan's eyes flashed, and he smiled in an instant: "Then Bai Someone should give you a glass of wine." ”

Tong Yuqing looked directly into his eyes and filled the two wine glasses, Qing Ziting wanted to take it, but she didn't expect Tong Yuqing to walk directly in front of Lu Tiansheng with the wine glass, and said in a broken voice: "Father, Bai Gongzi and I are old acquaintances, and he is not an outsider, let Yuqing do it for you with this glass of wine." ”

Lu Tiansheng suddenly thought that the two of them should be Qiu Zeyuan's daughter-in-law and son-in-law, and couldn't help but sigh at the impermanence of the world, he laughed and said: "Okay, it's true, it's not an outsider, and it won't be an outsider soon." ”

Tong Yuqing thought that Lu Tiansheng would refuse, but when she heard him say this, she couldn't help but feel suspicious, she turned her head to look at Bai Qiaoxuan, and when she saw him smiling, her heart was even colder.

Bai Qiaoxuan also looked back at Tong Yuqing, the two met their eyes, and instantly understood what each other was thinking......

After drinking the wine in the cup, Tong Yuqing grabbed Qing Ziting's arm and continued to toast to the guests present...... After the soup banquet, accompanied by the joking He Lang words, Qing Ziting and Tong Yuqing drank and drank easily, and Gu Weiqing took people to make trouble in the cave room, and they dispersed.

Qing Ziting held the bedside fruit and said, "Ruojia, I ......"

Tong Yuqing interrupted him, "Wait, the people under the bed and in the cabinet are coming out!" ”

Qing Ziting stood up in shock, watching in disbelief as people crawled out from under the bed one by one, "When did you hide there?" After a while, he sighed, "Oh my God, how did you six squeeze in?" ”

He turned his head again to look at the people who had come out of the cabinet and were squeezed into deformation, and laughed incoherently: "You guys...... You guys are ......."

"It's all your fault! Panting so loudly! ”

"How can I be blamed for this? You're not panting alive, are you? ”

"Didn't I let you gasp? The key is what do you do so loudly? ”

Tong Yuqing couldn't help laughing, "I'm really sorry everyone, it's my fault, I forgot to tell you, I am also half a martial arts practitioner, I can't feel the breath of one or two people, but the breath of more than a dozen of you, I think as long as you have a little bit of martial arts foundation, you can easily detect it." ”

At this time, a person suddenly walked in outside the door, and he praised while clapping his palm: "Our second young grandmother is really a character, Ziting, be careful, otherwise it will be enough for you in the future." ”

When Tong Yuqing saw this demon king of the mixed world, she naturally wanted to understand how these people were stuffed in. Qing Ziting's head turned into two big, and the only way he could think of was to push him out, "Aren't you already gone?" How did you come back again? ”

Where is Gu Weiqing that Qing Ziting can promote? He leaned directly against the door and said, "Hey, did you hear it, you can't blame me for saying that he is heavy on sex and light on friends, right?" ”

"You still say? We held it in for half an hour, but we didn't hear anything, and we were pulled out, and I still hurt now! ”

There was one who started, and the others also shouted, Gu Weiqing patted the door frame, "You guys are crossing the river and demolishing the bridge one by one, aren't you?" Liang Kuo! Didn't you say you wanted to stay and listen? ”

As the name suggests, Liang Kuo's face is square, and the flesh on his face is piled up together when he laughs, "I said it." ”

Gu Weiqing pointed to another person, Tong Yuqing really didn't have the heart to deal with him anymore, so he directly grabbed his arm and pushed him out of the door, "If Senior Young Master Gu is interested, let's bring someone to play another day." ”

This time, Gu Weiqing's gaze at Tong Yuqing completely changed, Qing Ziting still didn't have the strength to push him away, Tong Yuqing and a woman easily pushed him out of the door! He even felt that Tong Yuqing had tried his best to save his strength in order not to hurt him, thinking of this, he changed his mind and grinned: "Since the second young grandmother doesn't like us to disturb, then we will leave and come back to you another day." ”

When everyone heard Gu Weiqing speak seriously, they all thought that there was something wrong with their ears, and when they looked at each other, they heard him roar again, "Let's go!" What are you waiting for? ”

After Tong Yuqing saw them go away, she turned around and locked the door and asked, "What are you going to say to me?" ”

Qing Ziting poured two cups of hot water, motioned for Tong Yuqing to sit down, and replied, "There is one thing I haven't told you all ......."

Tong Yuqing saw that he had been rubbing the gift box that Bai Qiaoxuan gave them, and asked, "It's about Bai Qiaoxuan, right?" When you see him today, your face is not ordinary ugly, what did he threaten you with? ”

Qing Ziting has never been a person who can hide her thoughts, and she didn't tell Tong Yuqing a while ago that she was afraid of hindering her from taking revenge, but now her family feud will soon be over, and the top priority is to prevent Bai Qiaoxuan from attacking Xi'er, and he can't hide it anymore.

The more Tong Yuqing listened, the more angry he became, how could he do anything to get to such a point? To kill an innocent little girl!

Qing Ziting looked at Tong Yuqing's expression and said: "I know that I am not qualified to beg you, but I have nothing to do, I can only beg you, please think of a way, save Xi'er, save my sister, I can't watch her jump into the fire pit, I beg you......" Qing Ziting was about to kneel on the ground, Tong Yuqing hurriedly helped him back to his seat. She closed her eyes painfully, and thought carefully about the cause and effect of the matter, everything Bai Qiaoxuan did was to turn back, but now even if she is not to avenge her parents, she should not look back for the sake of morality and responsibility.

Qiao Xuan...... You deserve to be the person who knows me best, and you really give me problems......

After a while, Tong Yuqing said: "Don't worry, I will try my best to prevent this marriage, but it's just ......"

Qing Ziting hurriedly said: "As long as you do your best, if it really backfires in the end, everything must be based on Tong's family feud." ”

Hearing Qing Ziting's words, Tong Yuqing lowered her head in shame, "Ziting, I really owe you a lot, in fact, I don't deserve to treat you like this at all......"

Seeing her like this, Qing Ziting secretly blamed herself for saying the wrong thing, and hurriedly changed the topic, "Ruojia, I still have something to tell you, early tomorrow morning, we will go to Chengnan Zhongfu to meet my uncle, my uncle is different from his wife, he is kind and treats me like a big brother, so you don't have to be too nervous." ”

Tong Yuqing asked, "Are you talking about Madame's own brother, the eldest brother's own uncle Zhong Shubo?" ”

Qing Ziting replied: "Yes, he is also the father of the sister-in-law and the father-in-law of the eldest brother." Have you heard of him too? ”

Tong Yuqing nodded, "Mr. Zhong's good words and good deeds, even if I am far away in Yejin, I have heard of it. I have heard that he is rich but not arrogant, and that he is generous and giving, and that he is deeply supervised...... The father's dependence, the people's love. ”

Qing Ziting smiled: "Yes, my uncle is indeed highly respected and admirable. ”
