Volume 1 Border City Chapter 36 Families
Inside the Imperial Capital Luoshen Stream.
"I went to see Your Majesty yesterday. ”
The old man of the Liu family and the Mu family paused for a moment holding the teacup, and then the old man of the Mu family said: "Is it for the sake of the Xiao family?
"For the sake of the Xiao family. ”
"Thank you Brother Huang so much, this was originally my Liu family's business. ”
Huang Qi shook his head: "My three families have been in the same boat since that incident, and it can't be said that the Huang family or the Liu family is still in the same boat." ”
"Haha, Brother Huang's words are good, my old Liu recently heard that you and that one seem to want to release their old suspicions. ”
Huang Qi looked at the old man of the Liu family: "I don't know what you heard, but how do you plan to explain to my Huang family about your Liu family's collusion with Ole!"
"It's not about collusion or anything, at most it's just an exchange of information, and I'm not going to make a mistake on this. ”
"Exchanging information, the most, so what do you think is collusion?"
"Two, let's talk about the Xiao family, I believe that everyone is their own people, and they will restrain the people who do things below, and there will be no more unpleasant happenings. ”
Huang Qi paused and continued: "I promise Your Majesty that if Li Yu'er can reach the imperial capital safely, then the Xiao family will decide on its own, and if not, then Your Majesty will no longer pursue the Xiao family's previous affairs." ”
After hearing this, the old man of the Liu family didn't say anything, but his eyelids couldn't stop beating.
"Hey, I said Lao Huang, you let that person be pitted. The Li family is not a soft persimmon, and it is not a good thing for us to be offended. "The old man of the Mu family is the youngest of the three, and his attitude is also the most easy-going, but the old man of the Mu family is known as Mu Devouring the Marrow, and he is a notoriously sinister and vicious person.
"There's nothing good or bad, the Li family has never been our person, since it's not our person, it's the other party's, and neutrality has never existed in this court. ”
"Yes. The old man of the Mu family didn't say anything anymore and began to carefully taste the tea in his hand.
"The Xiao family is a vassal of my Liu family, Brother Huang, should you discuss it with my Liu family before you agree?"
"Does the Liu family disagree?"
"That's not true, the Xiao family is nothing, and I also want to know if the three of us can still compete on the same stage after all these years, and besides, I still have to give your brother Huang's face. Hahaha, this tea is really good!" Old Man Liu took a sip and was immediately full of praise.
"I'll take some with you when we go. ”
"Then thank you Brother Huang. ”
After a while, the Liu family and the old man of the Mu family left the manor together and went back to the house, leaving the old man Huang alone to continue drinking tea facing the scenery outside the window.
The Liu family.
"Father, that's what you agreed to?"
"What if you agree, what if you don't agree, are you still going to turn your face against that Xiao family for the sake of one?"
"Not really. ”
"Hehe, Xiao's family affairs are small, the old man wants to see if the time is ripe for the big thing that my Liu family is planning, and this time it is just a good time to try the depth of the other party. ”
"Father, are you going to do it?"
"Look at the outcome of this incident, by the way, you sent someone to keep an eye on the Huang family around the clock, I always feel that the Huang family is no longer reliable. ”
Wood family.
"Master, you're back. ”
"Well, go and prepare two big gifts for me, I'm going to visit the national teacher and Old Man Li. ”
"What are you?"
"Haha, just give a signal, my Mu family can't bet on one side, no matter which side wins, my Mu family can't lose. ”
"Yes, my subordinates will do it. ”
On the same day, a letter stamped with the imperial seal in the imperial capital set off from the imperial capital and went straight to the Southern Regions, with only a few sentences on the letter: "A month later, Li Yuer entered Beijing, Li Sheng, Xiao died." ”
And there was also a letter from the Liu family's compound out of the imperial capital, straight to the provincial governor's mansion in the southern region, and the letter was even simpler: "Li Yu'er, die." ”
In the courtyard of the Li family in the imperial capital.
"Father, how can you agree to that gamble!"
An elegant middle-aged man with a face full of anger rushed directly into the backyard of the Li family's mansion.
"Presumptuous! Do you have a right to speak in this matter? Reckless, what kind of system have you become, are you still the head of the family?"
A deep voice came out of the room, not at all old.
The old man of the Li family is the only self-made person among the four families, and it is precisely because of this that the Li family and other families have not had much to do with it, so they have always secretly stood on the emperor's side.
The middle-aged man was obviously not frightened, and when he entered the house, he said, "Father, I think Your Majesty has gone too far this time! ”
The old man of the Li family also got angry: "Zhuzier dares! This matter is decided by your Lao Tzu and His Majesty, it is better for you to kill Lao Tzu first and then go and talk to Your Majesty." ”
"Ahem, where are you, father? The originally aggressive middle-aged Confucian suddenly wilted.
"You have read so many books, but you have changed your appearance, but you have never changed your vulgar character, and you are reckless, which disappoints me very much!"
"Father, I'm like this, I can't change it. Besides, don't I inherit it all from you?"
"Hey, if you can have half the demeanor of a national teacher, I will be satisfied. ”
The middle-aged man looked embarrassed, judging from his appearance, he did already have a Confucian spirit, but this opening revealed his true nature, and he was still not used to that style.
"Father, this is really not good, Yu'er is too dangerous, you don't know, those three families are not good, Yu'er's mother has fallen out with me. ”
"Get out, not only does you not have the same demeanor, but you are also afraid of your wife. The old man of the Li family suddenly blew his beard and glared.
"Ahem, my father seems to have inherited you. ”
"Bang".
"Hey, father, don't fight, don't fight, don't hit your face, I still don't want to lose face. ”
The middle-aged man called like this, and the sound of whipping in the room was still endless, but it did not fall on the man's face at once.
"Stop!" a woman walked in, holding an old lady in her arms.
When the old man of the Li family heard this voice, he immediately stopped the movement in his hand: "Madam, why are you here, go and sit down." ”
The old lady of the Li family naturally sat on the top, and the woman who was supporting her touched the corner of her eyes and then sat down with the middle-aged man's hand.
"Is it decided?"
"Yes. ”
"Is it possible to turn around?"
"Well, it's time for my Li family to really take a stand. ”
"What about Yu'er?"
"Your Majesty promised me that he would protect Yu'er at all costs. ”
"What's the use of this, when something happens, it's not the same way. ”
"Hey, I understand, but how can the descendants of my Li family not experience some wind and rain, when the eagle is older, he will have to go out and fly alone. Besides, I asked the national teacher to take a hexagram, this trip is indeed very dangerous, but the vitality is also very obvious, and Yu'er will meet the nobles of her life on this trip. ”
"You believe this kind of ghost and god theory. ”
"I don't believe in ghosts and gods, but I believe in national teachers and Yu'er. ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you. ”
"Thank you, ma'am. ”
Seeing this, the middle-aged couple was anxious, and the man suddenly got up: "Mother, no, Yu'er can't get involved." ”
"Shut up! When did the man of the Li family become so afraid. Yu'er has her own destiny, so don't make trouble with your husband and wife. ”
The middle-aged woman just wanted to say something when Mrs. Li glared back, and then Mrs. Li said to Mr. Li: "Don't be happy too early, if Yu'er has any three long and two short, the old lady wants you to be buried with you." ”
"Poof", Mr. Li, who originally thought that he had passed the difficulty, squirted out all the tea in one sip.
Looking at Mrs. Li, who left after speaking, Old Man Li's whole face collapsed, how could he not be worried about his life, so he asked the national teacher to count three times in a row, he thought about it and got up and went to the mansion of the national teacher, and he had to calculate another hexagram.
Old Madam Li, who walked out of the door, said to her son: "Go, send me all the top masters in the family's secrets, the gambling contract didn't say that my Li family can't make a move." ”
After hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes lit up: "Okay, I'll go." ”
In the following ten days, the many masters of the Li family scattered all over the country returned to the imperial capital, and a total of two hundred and thirty-two could be used, including five in the Grandmaster Realm, and the others were all in the Master Realm.
After all, the Li family started with business at the beginning, and the Li family may be the first of the four in terms of financial resources, but this master is far from the other three, not only in terms of quantity, but also in terms of quality.
To put it simply, most of the masters of the other three families are from famous families and hold important positions in the army, while most of the masters of the Li family are from the people, but in the case that the other three families do not make a move, it is more than enough for the Li family to save Li Yuer's life.
The Li family's action of recalling the master did not hide from the other three, and the old man of the Mu family only sneered three times after hearing the news, and then ignored it anymore.
