Qi Xuansu left the Wang family's mansion and walked alone on the avenue back to Sheji Palace, walking with fluttering clothes and big sleeves.

Qi Xuansu was in a very bad mood, not only because of Wang Jiaoying, but also because the mention of Qi Niang would make him think of the Yao family and the earth master behind him, he didn't want to believe that Qi Niang would calculate himself, but many facts seemed to point to Qi Niang, at least Qi Niang couldn't get out of it, which put Qi Xuansu in a dilemma, he was not as calm as he appeared.

This also made Qi Xuansu extremely irritable, but there was no one to say. How so? Say it's a scam and he's been scammed?

But his life, his future, and everything he has now are all given by Qi Niang. What if, he's mistaken?

It doesn't matter if you deceive yourself, or if you don't dare to face it, in short, there is no real evidence, just speculation, Qi Xuansu is absolutely unwilling to believe it.

But he smelled something strange again. This is undoubtedly an ordeal. Qi Xuansu made up his mind, and after returning to Yujing, he would talk to Qi Niang openly and honestly, and if there was no result, then go to Lingshan Cave Heaven in person and find out

The secret behind the "Heart of the Immortal Stone". Zhang Yuelu didn't follow Qi Xuansu closely, she walked with Wang Jiaoyan.

Wang Jiaoyan looked at Zhang Yuelu and asked, "Zhang Cixi, let's just go back like this?" Zhang Yuelu smiled, stretched out her hand and pointed to the carriage parked there on the street not far away: "Please." ”

"It turns out that the prisoner car has been prepared for me a long time ago." Wang Jiaoyan laughed at himself and got into the carriage. Zhang Yuelu also boarded the carriage.

Under the escort of the spirit officer, the carriage moved slowly. There were only two people in the carriage, sitting opposite each other. Zhang Yuelu said: "The so-called seven emotions and six desires, eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind are six roots, and the people of Buddhism say that the six roots can be cultivated into positive results." But how many people can really be pure? It's normal for people to be greedy, everyone has greed, and I have greed, so it's understandable, but you can't be too greedy. Why are you, or rather, so greedy? It has been glorious for generations, and it has been enjoyed inexhaustibly, but you still have to earn money that should not be earned, trade slaves, and embezzle the assets of the Daomen, why is this so? Wang Jiaoyan did not speak.

Zhang Yuelu continued: "What do you want so much money for? Money is a thing, life does not bring, death does not bring, it is said that the Wang family is the emperor of Nanyang, to your status, money has not much practical significance, life in the world, nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation, eating, drinking and having fun, what kind of things do you want but can't get? Wang Jiaoyan said lightly: "Zhang Cixi, isn't there a shortage of money in the Daomen?" For individuals, after reaching a certain status, money does not have much practical significance, such as Chief Qi, which makes people unable to grasp the handle. But that's only for individuals, for behemoths like Daomen, money still has practical significance, and it is of great significance, otherwise Daomen would not have set up a special market hall to manage commerce, isn't commerce just to make money? Xuan Sheng said that governing the Daomen is nothing more than a question of where the money comes from and where it goes. This simple truth, Zhang Cixi won't understand, right? Zhang Yuelu said: "In this way, you are comparing the Wang family to the Daomen, you mean that you are not collecting wealth for yourself, but for the wealth of the Wang family behind you." Wang Jiaoyan's expression was grim: "I didn't say that, I didn't admit that I had illegally collected money, nor did I say that I had collected money for the Wang family." Also, I am me, the Wang family is the Wang family, and the Daomen is not a matter of prosperity, so please don't mix it up. She suddenly realized that Zhang Yuelu didn't understand this question, but was using her words, and she said it on purpose.

Zhang Yuelu was not discouraged, and continued: "Maybe what I said is a little biased, let's not discuss it first, we can reserve our own views." As for whether you have illegally enriched, it is not a question of whether you admit it or not, this is an objective fact that you cannot deny. Wang Jiaoyan sneered: "Your so-called evidence. ”

"Yes, evidence." Zhang Yuelu said calmly,

"Including a few of your lovers, although I don't know how you get along on weekdays, I know that between them and you, there is no affection at all, only interests. These beautiful men probably thought that your ship was about to capsize, so they jumped out of ship to escape and explained all the information about you. You may feel that you are not leaking, but the hardest thing to hide is the person next to you. Wang Jiaoyan's face became ugly, and his confidence was not as strong as just now.

Zhang Yuelu continued: "I will give you one last piece of advice, if you are lost and take the initiative to confess, then there will still be a glimmer of life." But if you don't come to your senses, there's only one way out. Wang Jiaoyan said in a low voice: "One is prosperous, and one is lost." Zhang Yuelu stopped talking.

Zhang Yuelu captured Wang Jiaoyan, Qi Xuansu beat Wang Jiaoying, although Lin Tianhe was still on the run, no matter how you look at it, it was a big rout for the Wang family.

As Wang Jiaoying said, if Wang Jiaohe doesn't make any moves, then the hearts of the people below will really be scattered.

Last time, the Wang family's counterattack was aimed at Lion City, setting off a huge riot, which did cause a lot of trouble to Qi Xuansu, but this time, the Wang family's counterattack was a little sluggish.

On the surface, Wang Jiaohe doesn't seem to have the power to fight back, but Qi Xuansu has always felt that Wang Jiaohe has been running Nanyang for so many years, and he must still have hidden murderous intentions.

Wang Jiaohe is obviously not a good talker, it is the norm to repay the eye, once he fights back, it must be aimed at Qi Xuansu's weakness.

In the next few days, Qi Xuansu waited for Jiang Dazhen's arrangement, and also began to deal with the affairs of Nanyang United Trading Company, after all, the behind-the-scenes boss and a number of high-level executives of Nanyang United Trading Company were basically arrested, and the entire company had been paralyzed, or it was operating by relying on the huge inertia of the past.

Qi Xuansu had to start preparing for the reorganization of the shareholders' meeting and the re-election of the board of directors as soon as possible for the sake of his own commitment, so that Nanyang United Trading Company could resume normal operations as soon as possible.

This requires Qi Xuansu to communicate with Qi Duyu and other powerful factions. It was during this period of time that the wind often blew to Qi Xuansu's ears, and it was nothing more than Wang Jiaohe's people who had been active frequently recently, and these people were all people who were deeply tied to the interests of the Wang family.

Qi Xuansu had a hunch that the Wang family's counterattack might be coming. Many people think that climbing inside the Dao Gate, as long as there are people above, it is fine, but in fact this is not the case, there are people above is just one of the conditions, the realm cultivation is high enough, the ability is strong enough, there are merits and achievements, and sometimes it is easier to get promoted than someone above.

After all, if you do a good job, you are also a resource of your boss, because your achievements also have a share of your boss, which is a mutual resource.

For example, Qi Xuansu was able to handle all the things delivered by Donghua Zhenren properly, which naturally shows that Donghua Zhenren has the wisdom to know people and employ people properly, so that Donghua Zhenren's face is bright.

On the contrary, if it is smashed, it is an unclear person and an improper use of people. It's a relationship of both prosperity and loss.

On the other hand, suppressing a person within the Daomen is not simply to see if there is anyone to protect it, but also to see if there is a weakness in the handle that is held by others.

If there is a big handle that is held by someone, such as betraying the Daomen, then the backer will not be able to keep it, so it can only be cut so as not to burn himself.

If you want to hold someone else's handle, you usually have to start where your opponent doesn't pay attention. Seeing the big with the small and touching the melon along the vine is not only Qi Xuansu who can use it.

Of course, Wang Jiaohe, an old oilman, will also, and he will be more skilled than Qi Xuansu. After Qi Xuansu came to the Thang Long Mansion, he did not rush back to Lion City, but stayed in the signing room of the Fire Palace.

Just today, Chen Jianqiu contacted Qi Xuansu through Ke Qingqing and wanted to see Qi Xuansu. Of course, Chen Jianqiu could come directly to see Qi Xuansu, but she wanted to go through Ke Qingqing and wanted to invite Qi Xuansu to meet in a bookstore in private, as for the location of the bookstore, Chen Jianqiu knew.

Qi Xuansu took some time and asked Chen Jianqiu to lead the way and went to the bookstore opened by Westerners, which was very clean and would not attract attention.

One is that all the books sold here are Western, and the other is that the owner is a Western lady, so if you don't know Western, it's hard to communicate here.

Chen Jianqiu himself has Western-style blood and often comes here. It is a small three-story building with a hall on the first floor, filled with various bookshelves and displaying books.

The second floor is, and can also be used to talk about things. The third floor is where the owner lives, and the guests stop. Chen Jianqiu was waiting for Qi Xuansu in the small living room on the third floor.

After Qi Xuansu came here, he found that Chen Jianqiu's face was very unsightly. Qi Xuansu sat down opposite Chen Jianqiu and said straight to the point: "What's the matter?" Chen Jianqiu said: "Qi Zhenren, yesterday afternoon, the people from Beichen Hall went to the palace to look for me. Qi Xuansu was stunned: "Beichen Hall? "The two deputy hall masters of Beichen Hall, one Li Changge and one Li Zhuyu, are all from his side, how could they go to find Chen Jianqiu at this time?

Qi Xuansu asked, "Which one is from Beichen Hall?" Chen Jianqiu looked at Qi Xuansu: "This matter, the real person really didn't know anything about it in advance?" Qi Xuansu said: "! I've been busy with Nanyang United Trading Company lately, where do I know? Chen Jianqiu said: "It's the people from the Beichen Hall branch, they suspect that I am a member of the Purple Light Society, and they want to take me away." I happened to be out of the palace and escaped. Qi Xuansu frowned: "When it comes to the lord of the Dayu Kingdom, even if you want to investigate, it is the local Taoist government or the main hall of Yujing Beichen Hall who comes forward in person, what is the excitement of a local branch hall?" Qi Xuansu immediately realized that there was something strange in this.

"Wait a minute." Qi Xuansu used the prayer basket to connect the Tianfu Palace,

"Xie Deputy Mansion Master? You invite Deputy Hall Master Danjin to come over, I have something to ask her...... Well, let her as soon as possible. A moment later, Li Zhuyu's voice sounded from Jing Zheng's side: "Chief Qi." Qi Xuansu asked, "Deputy Hall Master Danjin, have you or Deputy Hall Master Yongyan recently issued an order to the Beichen Hall branch of the Dao Mansion?" Li Zhuyu was obviously stunned: "We used all the people we brought from Yujing this time, supplemented by the spiritual officials of the Old Port Propaganda Division, and didn't use people from the local branch, did something happen?" ”
