Li Xichu and Wei Congrong rushed back to Penglai Li's house, and when they entered the city, they were caught up in the heavy snow, and the carriage was empty when it traveled through the streets, just like the mood of the two of them, silent and dull.

Entering the Li Mansion, Li Sichu directly found his father Li Ji, and at this time Li Ji was worshipping the Buddha in the Buddhist hall that had just been renovated.

"Oh? Why did my son come back suddenly, didn't he say that it would take some time? ”

Li Xichu ignored Li Ji's inquiry, and said directly: "Grandpa, I want to run the glass workshop!" ”

Li Ji was taken aback, and was about to ask, but saw Li Xichu continue: "Grandpa, the glaze workshop is very profitable, and it has become the third brother's dependence. Dare to ask Grandpa, after the third brother is full-fledged in the future, how will the child be opposed, does Grandpa want to do that act of abolishing the growth and standing young? ”

Li Ji was silent.

A few days later, Li Sisheng, who was counting the output of the glass workshop, received the letter from home, opened it and was stunned on the spot.

The content of this letter made Li Sisheng unacceptable, and Li Ji actually asked Li Sisheng to hand over the management of the glaze workshop to Li Sichu, and then let Li Sisheng concentrate on being with him at home. This is to imprison Li Sisheng at home!

Li Sisheng has long been dissatisfied with his father's partiality, and in order to save his father's mind, he has been sending money to the family during this time, hoping to let his father see his ability, but in the end, it attracts people to watch, is this still reasonable?

Li Sisheng was angry in his heart, and after thinking about it for a while, he sent someone to the Assassin's Mansion to report to Li Congyan that Li Sichu was going to rob the glass workshop, and Li Ji's letter was also sent.

Then Li Sisheng was angry, and decided to go back to argue with his father in person, so he directly took a few entourages and rode back to Penglai Li's house.

In the main hall of the Li family, Li Ji sat on the top and was silent, his face was very ugly. Li Sisheng and Li Sichu sat opposite each other, their faces cold, and they both stared at each other like enemies.

After a long time, Li Sisheng took the lead in speaking: "At the beginning, Li Tingshi wanted to build a glazed workshop, but my brother insisted on opposing it, it was I who fought all my net worth to win the glazed workshop, but now my brother wants to occupy the magpie's nest and take away the glazed workshop that makes a lot of money, how can there be such a reason in the world!" ”

"You're reasoning with me?"

Li Xichu said in a cold voice: "The Assassin's Mansion to recover the arrears and implement the tax stamps are all the money I spent for the clan, and I spent more than 30,000 yuan, more than 30,000 yuan!" You haven't paid a lot of money, you've been making money for yourself, but now you're reasoning with me, what qualifications do you have! ”

Li Sisheng stood up abruptly and said loudly: "In the end, my brother still feels sorry for your own money!" Those debts are owed by yourself, and you naturally have to make up for them. Most of the business in the clan is in your hands, and you will naturally have to pay for the cost of tax stamps. What is there to argue with this? Now you are talking as if you are at a loss, what is the point? ”

"Bastard!"

Li Ji slapped the table and yelled, pointed at Li Sisheng and scolded, "How do you talk to your brother?" There are no rules! ”

"Rules?"

At this time, Li Sisheng naturally knew that his father was on Li Sichu's side, so he was no longer polite, and said directly: "If Grandpa talks to me about the rules, then let's talk about it." The glaze workshop is not our own unique business, it is jointly organized with the Thorn History Mansion, and the Thorn History Mansion is also dominant. I, Li Sisheng, am the head of the glaze workshop appointed by Li Tingshi! Without Li Tingshi's order, who can replace me! ”

"I'll take someone to take over the glass workshop tomorrow, as long as the workshop is running normally, I'll take care of it on Li Tingshi's side." As for your ......, Grandpa! I see that the third brother has been working hard recently, so let the third brother rest in the house, and don't run around in the future! ”

"You dare!"

Li Sisheng was in a hurry and was about to have a seizure.

"Naturally, he didn't dare!"

At this moment, a voice came, and then a team of soldiers of the New Army rushed into the Li family's mansion and directly surrounded the main hall.

Wei Congrong, Jia Naian, Bao Tian, and Shen Mintuo ran into the main hall in a panic, stood beside Li Sichu and shouted.

"The eldest prince is not good! Li Jianshi rushed in with his troops! ”

"It's all new army soldiers and horses outside, we can't get out!"

Li Sichu stood up suddenly, his face full of incredulity: Li Congyan would lead troops to save the scene for the third brother Li Sisheng?

Over there, Li Ji's face turned pale with fright, after all, the tragic situation of several families being raided by the Assassination Mansion was still vivid, and Li Ji was afraid that such a thing would happen to him. At this time, Li Ji stood in place and stared outside, not daring to make a sound.

And Li Sisheng was first surprised, then ecstatic, and finally half angry and half happy, with both entanglement and anticipation in his heart, with mixed tastes.

Li Congyan was wearing Mingguang armor and holding a Tang horizontal sword, and behind him, Li Ren and Li Wei were guarding both sides with long lances, and a team of more than a dozen new army soldiers rushed in and controlled the people in the main hall.

Li Congyan looked at the few people present, and said with a sneer: "Master Li, how are you doing lately?" I've heard that someone is trying to imprison the workshop master I have appointed, but there is such a thing! ”

Li Ji saluted with trembling crossed hands, opened his mouth, and wanted to say a few hard words, but he didn't say half a word for a long time.

However, Li Xichu next to him was still quite tough, and said loudly: "What does Li Tingshi mean by this?" My Li family didn't violate the king's law, why did you lead troops to break into my Li family's mansion! ”

"Why?"

Li Congyan walked straight to the top of the main hall, and Li Ji hurriedly flashed to the side and gave up the main seat.

Li Congyan sat down directly, and then said: "Just because I am the assassin of Dengzhou, just because someone wants to rob me of Li Congyan's property!" Is this reason sufficient? ”

Li Sichu glared at Li Sisheng fiercely, and scolded loudly: "You actually colluded with outsiders to persecute your relatives!" ”

Li Sisheng also understood the situation at this time, and even saw the faces of his father and brother clearly, and said loudly: "What you do yourself, don't have anything to do with my Li family!" ”

After speaking, Li Sisheng bowed to the ground directly in the direction of Li Congyan, and said loudly: "Qi Li Thorn History, this time it was Li Sichu who made his own initiative to snatch the glaze workshop, which really has nothing to do with the Li family, and please Li Thorn Shi Mingjian!" ”

"Master Li, is that so?"

Li Ji looked at the elite of the new army present, and then looked at Li Congyan, whose eyes were like swords, and finally closed his eyes painfully and nodded with great difficulty.

Li Si was stunned when he saw this, and then laughed loudly, pointing at his father Li Ji and Li Sisheng and said loudly: "I am the son of the Li family, this Li family is mine, and the glass workshop is also mine!" Everything in the Li family is mine, no one wants to take it away! ”

"Oh? Is it! ”

Li Congyan said to Li Ji: "I think the head of the Li family is old, so it's better to take a back seat." I wonder what the head of the Li family thinks? ”

Although Li Ji didn't quite understand what it meant to take a back seat, combined with Li Congyan's attitude and the situation at this time, he could also understand in his heart that he was going to give way.

"I, I ......"

Li Congyan looked at Li Ji's hesitant appearance and said directly: "Okay! Since the head of the Li family has acquiesced, then in the future, the affairs of the Li family will be decided by the third son, Li Sisheng! ”

"No!"

At this moment, Li Siming, the second son of the Li family, broke in, Li Ren and Li Wei stepped forward to stop him, and Li Congyan said: "It's okay, let him come in, just so that he can meet the new head of the Li family." ”

Li Siming sneered and said: "Li Tingshi acts like this, isn't he afraid of the leisurely mouth of the Dengzhou scholar?" ”

"Haha!"

Li Congyan laughed and said, "I, Li Congyan, am not afraid of the axe and neck, but I am still afraid of you nerds?" ”

Li Congyan didn't take Li Siming's threat seriously at all, and now the so-called scholars in Dengzhou are the children of families and businessmen from all over the world.

Judging from the current situation faced by Li Congyan, it is completely possible to control these families and merchants by means of workshops and various taxes in various places, how can the children of their families dare to oppose him?

"You! Lose Sven! ”

Li Congyan was not in the mood to entangle with Li Sichu and Li Siming at this time, and said directly to Li Sisheng: "Stabilize the situation of the Li family as soon as possible, and the matter of the Liuli Workshop must not be delayed." ”

"Whoa!"

"The things I did today, maybe you will have ideas in your heart, but it is still the same sentence: I hope you will focus on the overall situation!"

Li Sisheng crossed his hand and said, "Oh! I understand. ”

Over there, Li Sichu and Li Siming were already angry, especially Li Siming, this person is a famous talent in Dengzhou, a typical scholar, at this time, seeing Li Congyan despise himself so much, he directly shouted: "Li Congyan! You robbed my Li family's property, I will fight with my life today, and he will face the verbal criticism of the people of the world every day, see how you end! ”

After speaking, Li Siming rushed straight to Li Congyan, and he actually wanted to fight with Li Congyan.

Seeing this, Li Sisheng exclaimed: "Brother, don't do it! ”

Li Sichu and Li Ji also hurriedly stopped, but everyone was a beat slower, they didn't expect Li Siming, who was originally weak, to be so brave today, and rushed to Li Congyan's approach in three steps and two steps.

"Bold!"

After a loud shout, Li Ren and Li Wei blocked in front of Li Congyan at the same time, and Li Ren flew up and kicked Li Siming out directly. And Li Wei stepped forward quickly, stepped on Li Siming's chest with one foot, put the horizontal knife in his hand on Li Siming's neck, and looked back at Li Congyan: "Lord, this person should be killed!" ”

Seeing this, Li Sisheng hurriedly bowed, wanting to intercede for Li Siming, but heard Li Si wailing.

So Li Sisheng looked back, but saw Li Siming spitting blood, his eyes wide open, and he had died of exhaustion, and Li Si was paralyzed on the ground crying.

Li Ren was even more surprised, he didn't expect this Li Siming to look quite brave, but his body bones were so unbearable, he was kicked to death by himself with only one kick, and looked at Li Siming with some embarrassment at this time, his face was full of apologies.

"Brother!"

"Second brother!"

Li Sisheng and Li Sichu pounced on Li Siming's body at the same time, and Li Wei also took two steps back and put away the horizontal knife in his hand.

"Get out of here!"

Li Sichu pushed Li Sisheng away, and then said with red eyes: "Today's hatred, I will remember it for life!" The Li family is mine, and sooner or later, I will take back everything that belongs to me! ”

After speaking, Li Xichu struggled to carry Li Siming, and beckoned Wei Congrong, Jia Naian, Bao Tian, and Shen Mintuo next to him, wanting to leave here with everyone, but was stopped by the soldiers of the new army at the door.

Li Congyan didn't want to see blood, he just wanted to support Li Si to be promoted to the top position, but now he was killed, and at this time he shook his head with embarrassment, and said to Li Sisheng: "Whether they go or stay, you can decide." ”

At this time, Li Sisheng was already in tears, and in a blink of an eye, he had completely broken with his father and brother, what would happen to the Li family in his hands in the future?

"Please also ask Li Tingshi to let them go, let them go!"

Li Sisheng looked at his father Li Ji, who was already lying on the ground in a daze, and said, "No matter what the consequences are in the future, I, Li Sisheng, will bear it!" ”

"Good!"

Li Congyan waved his hand, and the soldiers of the new army at the door gave way to the door, and Li Xichu and the others left without looking back.

Li Congyan pulled up Li Sisheng on the ground, and took the list handed over by a brigade commander, and said: "I have already found out Li Sichu, Li Siming and your grandfather's henchmen in the mansion for you, everyone is concentrated in the left cross courtyard, how to deal with it is up to you." ”

"Whoa!"

"Thanks, Li Tingshi!"

Li Congyan asked, "......What is the rest?"

Li Sisheng crossed his hand and said: "The rest of the matter is my Li family's family affairs, I'll just handle it myself!" In addition, my fourth brother, I will also go to inform myself, please rest assured! ”

Li Congyan nodded, today's events were a little beyond expectations, but it could also be seen that Li Sisheng was of great use, at least he was quite sober in the overall situation, so he secretly wrote it down in his heart.

"Good! In that case, then you can do it yourself. ”

After speaking, Li Congyan led the team away. Before leaving, Li Ren saluted Li Sisheng with his hands crossed, but Li Sisheng didn't say a word as if he hadn't seen it.
