Who knew that Shen Xiaoyu did not answer the man's question, but said with an unchanged face: "Subordinate Shen Xiaoyu to meet the deputy pavilion master! I wish the deputy pavilion master Hong Fu Qitian!" It turned out that the man in a tattered linen dress was Li Xinling, the deputy pavilion master of the dignified Luoyu Pavilion. Li Xinling is the younger brother of the former pavilion master Shen Wentian, Shen Wentian has always called him Xinling, so everyone in Luoyu Pavilion must call him the deputy pavilion master of Xinling. To be precise, Shen Xiaoyu should call him uncle, but in public, Shen Xiaoyu mostly calls Li Xinling the deputy pavilion master.

As the deputy pavilion master, Li Xinling has always had no shelf in Luoyu Pavilion, and he is not in the limelight, just like a diligent farmer, he only knows how to work hard and does not care about the harvest. Li Xinling is far from being as sharp and scheming as the previous pavilion master Shen Wentian, for twenty years, Li Xinling has been standing behind Shen Wentian, living in the light of Shen Wentian, he just silently supports his senior brother, doing things for Luoyu Pavilion, and is an unknown existence, of course, Shen Wentian did not despise him, because although this junior brother is clumsy in words, he is a brave and resourceful person.

Li Xinling narrowed his eyes, sat up straight, looked at Shen Xiaoyu and said with a smile: "Big niece, you have been by Tang Jiusheng's side for half a year, and it seems that you have made great progress, not only have you become mature, but even your martial arts are almost close to the three-grade realm? But there is one thing that I am very surprised, your father abdicated and let Xian pass the position of pavilion master to Lu Yiliu, and Lu Yiliu then imprisoned your father and your brother, but you can wait so long to return to the helm, enough to endure it!"

Shen Xiaoyu's whole body suddenly trembled, and he said loudly: "Deputy Pavilion Master, I think I know the current situation of my father and my brother! I really can't understand that it is not my brother who will take over as the Pavilion Master, but a second-class protector Falu Yiliu who has no foundation in the gang. And Lu Yiliu was not grateful to the former pavilion master who passed on the throne to him, but put the former pavilion master and the pavilion master's son under house arrest. If I was also at the helm at that time, I must have been under house arrest at this time, right?"

Li Xinling smiled, clapped his hands and said, "Interesting, go on!" Shen Xiaoyu slowly walked a few steps towards Li Xinling, and Lord Qiu, who was standing in front of the case, immediately stood up and waved the dust in his hand, blocking Shen Xiaoyu.

Shen Xiaoyu had no choice but to stop, stared at Li Xinling's eyes, and said coldly: "Obviously, it was the day that my father and Tang Jiusheng agreed on, but the pavilion did not send someone to ransom me from Tang Jiusheng. After a while, my father wrote me another letter, but instead of sending someone to me, he handed it over to the master of the Jiannan branch hall and asked him to pass it on to me again. My father said in the letter that he passed the position of pavilion master to Lu Yiliu, but this Lu Yiliu is only a second-class protector in our Luoyu Pavilion, how can the pavilion master pass the throne to such an unknown little person so easily?"

Li Xinling leaned back in the chair again, and asked with interest: "Well, that's right, is there anything else?"

Shen Xiaoyu said again: "What makes people feel strange is that my father passed the position of pavilion master to Lu Yiliu, but then news came out that my father and my father violated the gang rules of Luoyu Pavilion and were placed under house arrest by the new pavilion master Lu Yiliu, and Lu Yiliu also sent people to tell the hall masters in various places that the eldest lady still enjoys the privileges in the pavilion. And at this time, Uncle Li, who is the deputy pavilion master and my father's right-hand man, continued to be his deputy pavilion master unharmed, neither caring about the life or death of my father and me, but also not being liquidated by the new pavilion master, you said that such a thing happened to the general rudder, is it strange?"

Lu Dali, who was standing at the bottom of the stairs, shouted at Shen Xiaoyu, "Shen Xiaoyu, have you said enough! The pavilion master and the deputy pavilion master act, how can you understand this girl? Why don't you kneel down and ask the deputy pavilion master for guilt!"

Shen Xiaoyu said excitedly: "It is impossible for my father to be put under house arrest for no reason, there must be a reason." What is my father under house arrest for, just to take power from my father's hands. Therefore, this person who plotted against my father must be a person who wants to be the master of the cabinet! This person who wants to be the master of the cabinet does not want to bear the reputation of disloyalty and injustice, so he hides behind and supports a puppet in the front desk. And this puppet is the little-known Lu Yiliu! Those old people in the pavilion who are loyal to my father must all be disposed of, such as Sai Huatuo and others!"

Li Xinling looked up to the sky and laughed, clapped his hands and praised: "Big niece, you are really good! Just such a small matter, you can actually analyze so many internal information, is there any?"

Shen Xiaoyu said again: "There are some people who are still of great use to the pavilion, but they are sympathetic to the old pavilion master, such as the second elder who is known for his prestige in the pavilion, people like Ying Honglie and An Changxiu, they will be demoted and let them go to the checkpoint of guarding the helm and going up the mountain, and the death of Sai Huatuo and others can be regarded as killing chickens and monkeys." Aohuang and the others are my father's disciples, and you are the uncle, they can't compete with you, and when they have no choice, they can only flee from the helm. As for me, I don't have any power in the pavilion, and I don't have the ability to rescue my father and brother, so this shadow pavilion master pretended to be generous and let me survive outside and keep my original treatment, and even the Qingyun Order was not taken back. Is that what I guessed, Uncle Li!"

Li Xinling stood up with a smile, held the desk with both hands, leaned over and said with a smile: "But your Uncle Li has made a lot of calculations, but he didn't calculate that you can become the pillow person of Wei Wang Tang Jiusheng, you actually have the ability to confuse Tang Jiusheng, and have the courage to lead people to raid the Jiannan Branch, and you can even say that Tang Jiusheng, the king of Wei, personally took danger and came to the helm of our Luoyu Pavilion! Big niece, you are really a heroine among women! Uncle Li doesn't admire your father or your brother, but Uncle Li has to admire you!"

Shen Xiaoyu shook his head and choked back, "I don't have any Uncle Li, we only have a deputy pavilion master named Li Xinling in Luoyu Pavilion, this deputy pavilion master is so ambitious, he has been enduring humiliation for so many years, like an old ox, silently paying for Luoyu Pavilion, not seeking fame or profit, but it turned out to be an illusion that he worked hard to be the pavilion master, even a shrewd person like my father was kept in the dark by you, Deputy Pavilion Master Li can really be called a hero!"

Li Xinling straightened up, dusted off the dust on the sackcloth rags with his hands, and laughed softly: "Back then, the master thought I was young and had no foundation, so he passed the position of the pavilion master to the senior brother, so many years have passed, I have always been shrouded in the shadow of the senior brother, it's not that I have no ability, the contributions I have made to the Falling Rain Pavilion over the years are obvious to all, but who cares? The Falling Rain Pavilion is the Falling Rain Pavilion of Shen Wentian, if there is no accident, it will be the Falling Rain Pavilion of Shen Fang in the future, what am I?" How many people outside will know that there is also a Li Xinling in the Falling Rain Pavilion who is also a master?"

Li Xinling walked out from behind the case and looked at Lu Dali, "So I supported Lu Yiliu and let him take over as the pavilion master, I gave him money and beauties, and even asked him to promote his nephew Lu Dali to be the great protector of the Luoyu Pavilion, and also demoted the two elders, a monk and others who were not pleasing to Lu Yiliu to guard the main road up the mountain, I did this, of course, for Lu Dalang's consideration, otherwise that waste would not be able to sit on the pavilion master's chair for an hour! ”

Lu Dali looked at Li Xinling, and when he saw that his expression suddenly became hideous, he was immediately frightened like chaff, and said in a loud voice: "Deputy Pavilion Master, you have been wronged! Both the subordinate uncles and nephews are loyal to the Deputy Pavilion Master, and the loyalty of the subordinate uncles and nephews can be seen every day! The Deputy Pavilion Master needs money, so we will do everything possible to make money, and let the local branch halls pay the silver every month! The Deputy Pavilion mainly divides the disobedient branch halls and rudders in various places, and we will remove or even assassinate those disobedient hall masters and sub-helmsmen! Our uncle and nephew are completely in the hands of the deputy cabinet master!"

Li Xinling nodded, with an approving smile on his face, and suddenly jumped forward, when he kicked Lu Dali in the chest, the speed was fast and urgent, and the unprepared Lu Dali was kicked out by Li Xinling, Lu Dali fell out of three zhang away, fell to the ground and struggled for a long time, and his ribs were also kicked off twice, Lu Dali is not only rough in appearance, full of beard, a pair of ringed eyes, and he is indeed a tough guy, and he didn't say a word when he broke two ribs, but when he saw Li Xinling's eyes, he instantly knew that something was wrong.

The furious Li Xinling's eyes were on fire, and he sneered and said: "What a loyal one! Your uncle and nephew secretly trained a monk soldier behind my back, do you think I don't know? Your uncle and nephew have also secretly discussed, if things don't work out, release the old pavilion master, and coerce the old pavilion master to order the rudder branches! You are indeed loyal to me, ah? Since you are so loyal to me, how can I reward your uncle and nephew?"

When Lu Dali's soul was scattered, when he secretly discussed this matter with his uncle Lu Yiliu, there was no one else around, how did Li Xinling know? Lu Dali always knew that Li Xinling was ruthless, and if he was ruthless today, his uncle and nephew and those subordinates would be killed. The hero didn't eat the loss in front of him, Lu Dali immediately got up from the ground, and frantically threw himself at Li Xinling's side, just wanting to hug Li Xinling's thigh, "Deputy Pavilion Master! My subordinates know that they are wrong! Ask the Deputy Pavilion Master to spare their lives! My uncle and nephew have followed the Deputy Pavilion Master for so long, and there is no merit and hard work......"

Li Xinling kicked again and kicked Lu Dali out again, this time the fall was too heavy, and Lu Dali really couldn't get up. Li Xinling glanced at Lu Dali in disgust, and said loudly: "Come on, take down Lu Dali for me! Go to the dungeon! After I finish dealing with these rebellions, I will pull them out and behead them together!"

Outside the hall, a samurai immediately agreed, and four warriors who were like wolves and tigers rushed into the Falling Rain Hall and escorted Lu Dali out. Lu Dali kept struggling, turned his head and wailed loudly: "The deputy pavilion master spares his life! The subordinates know that they are wrong! The subordinates will definitely change! Miss Xiaoyu, help me intercede!" There was no response from anyone in the Falling Rain Hall, and Lu Dali's wailing gradually faded away until it disappeared. The Falling Rain Hall was silent, so quiet that everyone could hear the sound of their own breathing. Li Xinling looked around at everyone, silently returned to the desk, and sat down in the chair again.

Li Xinling squinted his eyes and looked at Tang Jiusheng and smiled, smiled kindly, with a harmless expression on his face, "I'm sorry, I didn't control it strictly, let His Royal Highness King Wei laugh! His Royal Highness King Wei is a guest from afar, come here, give His Royal Highness King Wei and the princess Niangniang and the adults of King Wei's Mansion a seat!" As soon as Li Xinling's voice fell, several maids walked out from behind the painted folding screen on the right side, holding a few embroidered piers, came behind Tang Jiusheng and the others, and put down the embroidered piers. Tang Jiusheng and the others sat down honestly and unceremoniously.

Lord Qiu, who was standing in front of the case, hurriedly pointed to a few maids and added, "What are you doing in a daze, watch the tea!"

The maids hurriedly took out a few small tables, placed them in front of Tang Jiusheng and the others, arranged the tea bowls, and then poured tea and served tea. Tang Jiusheng looked at the tea in the tea bowl, raised his head and glanced at Li Xinling again, but did not drink tea. Shui Ruyue, the fat man and the others saw that Tang Jiusheng didn't drink tea, and knew that he was afraid that the tea was poisonous, so no one drank it. A maid lifted the big copper teapot and poured a cup for Li Xinling, Li Xinling saw that everyone looked at each other, and they didn't serve the tea bowl, and suddenly laughed wildly: "You must not drink it, my tea is poisonous!"

As he spoke, Li Xinling didn't care about the hot tea, and took a bowl of hot tea, like pouring water, all of it poured into his throat, and praised loudly: "Good tea, good tea!" Tang Jiusheng saw him like this, he was embarrassed to get up, so he had to pick up the tea bowl and take a sip, everyone saw that Li Xinling drank the tea safely, Tang Jiusheng drank the tea and there was nothing to do, and they all picked up the tea bowl and drank it.

Tang Jiusheng put down the tea bowl and looked at Li Xinling, who was sitting behind the big case, at this time, Li Xinling was sitting on a high place, and Tang Jiusheng needed to look up to see him. Tang Jiusheng smiled and asked: "This king is very curious, this king has been wearing a mask all the way, and he has never shown his true face, how did the Li Pavilion Lord know that this king came to the chief helm of the Luoyu Pavilion?"

Li Xinling first corrected Tang Jiusheng, "Lord Wang, you are wrong, I am not the Pavilion Master, I am just the Deputy Pavilion Master!" and then said calmly: "I can't hide it, as soon as the Lord Wang arrived, I knew that the Lord was coming in the direction of Tiexuan Mountain." Could it be that I only allow you to plant eyeliner in my Falling Rain Pavilion, and I can't go to the Weiwang Mansion to install a few undercover agents? There is a way to come and not be rude, and the prince also knows that I Li Xinling is not a good man and a woman, I have always been a person who does not offend me, I do not offend people, if people offend me, I will cut down the grass and eradicate the roots!"

Tang Jiusheng smiled slightly, and said disapprehantly: "Pavilion Master Li is modest, although you are nominally the deputy pavilion master of the Falling Rain Pavilion, but in fact you are in control of the power of life and death in the pavilion, it is not appropriate to call you the deputy pavilion master! Hero, why stick to one title, even if you are just a protector, this king will not dare to look down on you!"

Li Xinling applauded slowly, and praised: "The prince is really wise! Since the prince has come to the helm of the Luoyu Pavilion, it is also a good thing, there is a deal in the next place, and I want to talk to the prince! After the negotiation is good, we can cooperate, and it is also a happy thing, but I just don't know if the prince is interested in this deal! If the prince is interested, we have to have a good talk!"

Tang Jiusheng put his hands on his sleeves and said with a meaningful smile: "Doing business is a good thing, this king likes to do business the most, buy low and sell high, earn the difference, and be happy! Besides, how can you make a lot of money without doing business, right? But this king doesn't know what kind of business the Li Pavilion Lord wants to talk to me about? How much capital is needed, and is there any danger? After all, this Wang and the Li Pavilion Master have never cooperated before, and I don't know you, I'm afraid that we will lose our capital for the first time we cooperate. ”

Li Xinling laughed and said: "The prince is really a good businessman! But there is a saying that wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and you can't make a lot of money if you don't take risks! I want to talk to the prince about this business, but a big business, ordinary people can't eat it, and only a few people with power in the world are the best partners to cooperate with! Lord Wang, please think about it, my Luoyu Pavilion is the strongest killer organization in the world of big business, if the prince can join forces with me, then even the chair in the Taihe Hall of Yong'an City will not be a problem! As long as the prince is willing to cooperate, after the future is completed, I will be appointed as a general!"
