Beijing, Qiao's mansion.

In the back garden gazebo!

Dressed in a black tunic with a thin figure and high spirits, Qiao Lixin was playing chess with his confidant and staff member Yuan Qingshan.

Qiao Lao used to be a big man in the military world, but he regretted that he was not able to reach the pinnacle of power, so he was forced to retreat.

However, although he has retired, his influence is still there.

The Qiao family is still a behemoth in Huaxia and one of the top families in Huaxia.

After Qiao Lao retired, he put his energy into cultivating offspring, he had not been able to climb to the pinnacle of power before, but he hoped that his descendants would be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish.

At this time!

He picked up a white piece and slammed it on the chessboard.

Then, intentionally or unintentionally, he asked Yuan Qingshan: "Old Yuan, do you think which of our Yuan family juniors is the most accomplished?" ”

When Yuan Qingshan was young, he was Qiao Lao's subordinate, and he was born and died with Qiao Lao, and he was the most trusted old man by Qiao Lao's side.

He has always been Qiao Lao's staff officer, and after Qiao Lao retired, he also stepped down and continued to be Qiao Lao's personal staff.

He stared at the chessboard, shook his head and said: "Old Qiao, your Qiao family has many talents, your sons are very good, and your more than a dozen grandchildren are even better than the blue, how can I say who is better?" ”

Old Qiao smiled when he heard this, and waved his hand to signal the surrounding servants and bodyguards to all step back.

Then, he looked at Yuan Qingshan, who was sitting opposite, and said with a light smile: "Old Yuan, I really want to hear your opinion." ”

Yuan Qingshan raised his head and said with a wry smile: "Old Qiao, you can do things that make me offend people." ”

Truly!

Qiao Lao has several sons and more than a dozen grandchildren.

Recently, Qiao Lao has obviously made a big move, and it is estimated that he wants to focus on cultivating a successor of the Qiao family, and even push this successor of the Qiao family up.

Everyone in the Qiao family wants to be this successor!

Yuan Qingshan commented on the children of the Qiao family at this time, and he was naturally happy to be rated as the best child.

But those children who were rated as inferior by Yuan Qingshan would definitely hate Yuan Qingshan to death.

Qiao Lao smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, your words come from your mouth, listen to my ears, and no third person will know." ”

Yuan Qingshan heard Qiao Lao say this, so he could only think about it seriously, and then said: "Qiao Lao's sons, although their qualifications are extraordinary, they are still inferior to Qiao Lao, I am afraid they will not be able to fulfill Qiao Lao's long-cherished wish." ”

Hearing this, Old Qiao was silent for two seconds and nodded.

Yuan Qingshan said again: "Old Qiao, you have more than a dozen grandchildren, and several of them are dragons among people, especially your eldest grandson Qiao Yang, who is even more outstanding, and it will definitely be tomorrow's sun." ”

Qiao Lao smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I also know that Qiao Yang, this kid is very good, and he has been a genius since he was a child." ”

"But this kid's personality is a bit arrogant and undisciplined, and he is sharp."

"I wanted to sharpen his temperament, and wait until he is forty years old, when he knows how to restrain his edge, calm and restrained, and then reuse it."

Yuan Qingshan said with a smile: "Qiao Yang is indeed a bit sharp, but his strength is worthy of his edge, and young people should have the vigor of young people." ”

"Thinking about that glass of wine, young marshal Chen Ning, isn't he already the commander of the northern realm before he reaches thirty?"

"I just think that Qiao Yang has nothing like Chen Ning, give him a chance, he will definitely be able to shine more than Chen Ning!"

Old Qiao was thoughtful when he heard this!

Yuan Qingshan said again: "Moreover, it is a good thing to grind Qiao Zhengzi, but Qiao Lao, you are old, you can't wait that long!" ”

When Qiao Lao heard this, he finally made up his mind: "Okay, just him!" ”

"You go back and ventilate with our protégés and old officials, build momentum for Qiao Yang, and at the same time pour some sewage on Chen Ning, I want to pull Chen Ning down from the position of commander of the northern territory and put Qiao Yang on top."

Yuan Qingshan said: "Yes, Old Qiao!" ”

Yuan Qingshan remembered something, and immediately said, "There is one more thing!" ”

Qiao Lao asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Yuan Qingshan smiled bitterly: "Shen Chongwen of the Shen family came to complain, saying that their Shen family was bullied by Chen Ning miserably, and begged Qiao Lao to give justice to their Shen family." ”

Qiao Lao frowned slightly: "Chen Ning's kid, it's not safe to save your relatives on vacation." ”

"He first got my protégé Wu Zhongtang in, and now he is using my old department Shen Chongwen to open the knife, which is a bit too jumpy."

"You just reply to Shen Chongwen and let him calm down, I have my own measure."

Yuan Qingshan said: "Yes! ”
