The main hall of the Su Mansion was brightly lit, Su Wen and Su Zhu had already sat in their places early, and even the old lady of the Su family appeared in the center of the main hall, Gong Rufeng stood behind him respectfully, everyone looked solemn, as if they were waiting for someone.

After a while, Su Xing, who was dressed in a black robe, took a steady step, first saluted like the old lady in the center, and then slowly sat down in his place.

"Big brother, what is the purpose of calling us all here today?" Before the old lady could ask, the anxious Su Zhu opened his mouth first.

"Third child, shut up!" Su Wen counted Su Zhu down: "Dad hasn't spoken yet, do you have a part to speak here?"

"Okay, okay!" Old lady Su seemed to be getting better, and her face was much more rosy than before: "The third question is also good, I also want to know what's going on?"

"What about Ruhai, why haven't you come yet?" Su Xing looked around the main hall, and finally looked at Gong Rufeng.

"Dad, I've already asked someone to inform Ruhai, it should be there later. Gong Rufeng saluted Su Xing, then turned to a maid and whispered, "Go and urge." ”

"Now except for Ruhai, everyone else has already arrived?" Su Wen took a sip of tea: "What can the eldest brother talk about first!"

"Second brother, don't worry!" Su Xing looked at Su Wen with a smile: "Let's wait for Ruhai to talk about this matter together." ”

Seeing that Su Xing insisted, everyone didn't say anything more, and after about half a cup of tea, Su Ruhai trotted all the way into the main hall: "Ruhai to grandpa, father, second uncle and third uncle to say goodbye." ”

"Ruhai, why are you so late?" Although Su Xing questioned Su Ruhai in his mouth, his voice was not as indifferent as before, and his eyes were not as sharp as before.

"Dad, I slept late yesterday when I asked Rufeng about family affairs, so I came late. Su Ruhai's eyes glanced at Gong Rufeng, revealing a bitter smile.

"Dad, Ruhai has been working hard to learn family affairs recently. Gong Rufeng's statement made Su Ruhai breathe a sigh of relief.

"Really?" Su Xing glanced at Su Ruhai very playfully and smiled: "Ruhai can put his heart on family affairs, which is also the blessing of the Su family." ”

"Big brother, this time everyone is here, let's talk about it. Su Zhu couldn't help it for a long time, with his temperament, if it weren't for the pressure of the old man and several brothers, it would be more painful for him and others to be killed than to kill him.

"From today onwards, I will unload the burden of the head of the Su family. Su Xing first made a series towards Old Lady Su, and then turned around and said loudly: "The position of the head of the family is taken over by the second brother Su Wen. ”

"Big brother, why is this?" Everyone was in an uproar, even Su Wen was completely stunned, he never thought of being the head of the Su family.

"Second brother, if you have any questions, it's not too late to ask after I finish speaking. Su Xing said with a smile: "Ruhai, I am very pleased to hear that my father has asked you about family affairs day and night; before leaving office, I announced as the head of the family that in the future, the Feng Yi Hall of the Su family will be handed over to Su Ruhai in charge!"

"Boss, these decisions of yours are too sudden!" The old lady of the Su family was the calmest person in the hall, he raised a wrinkled face and looked at Su Xing word by word: "Tell me the reason." ”

"Dad, please take a look at this!" Su Xing solemnly took a bright yellow scroll from his sleeve, held it with both hands and handed it to Old Lady Su on the main seat.

"This is?" Old Lady Su opened the scroll and looked at it, and suddenly even her voice trembled: "Boss, is this true?"

"Exactly!" Su Xing carefully retracted the scroll into his sleeve again: "That's why the child made this decision." ”

"Dad, big brother, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing?" Su Zhu couldn't bear to shout again: "What is there to say for everyone to hear!"

"The boss stepping down from the position of the head of the Su family is the meaning of His Majesty today!" Old Lady Su seemed to be in disbelief, but she had to believe it: "Because the boss is already a household secretary!"

"Hubu Shangshu?" Su Wen and the others looked at each other, and they also looked puzzled: "Big brother, what's going on?"

"The Su family made outstanding contributions in cracking the case of a fake tax collector, so he was able to take over as the head of the household department by the grace of His Majesty. Su Xing felt a little complacent when he said this, after so many years, he was the first person in the Su family to be able to enter the court as an official.

"Big brother, before you

Say that the honor and disgrace of the Su family depends on me and the third brother!" Su Zhu pondered for a while, and suddenly remembered what Su Xing had said before: "Could it be that at that time, you already knew that you were going to be appointed as the head of the household?"

"That's good!" Su Xing smiled and sat back in his seat: "If it weren't for Li Rat of Jingwei Mansion framing me, this will not be delayed to this day!"

"It's great that the eldest brother actually wants to be the head of the household!" Su Wen danced excitedly: "Let's see who else dares to bully us in Jinlingcheng in the future." ”

"However, this Fengyi Hall is one of the several heavy industries of the Su family, and Ruhai is still so young, what if it 。。。。。。 "Old lady Su is extremely distrustful of this Su Ruhai.

"Dad, Ruhai is also twenty years old this year!" Su Xing expressed his opinion: "When I was his age, I was already the head of the Su family. ”

"Ruhai, come here!" Su Xing turned around and pointed at Su Ruhai: "Do you know why your father asked you to manage the Shanshui Inn?"

"It's about getting a better experience and stepping up when the family needs it. "Don't look at Su Ruhai who is fat and likes to spend time drinking, but his brain is very flexible, and he has long understood Su Xing's intentions.

"It turns out that you all know, and it doesn't seem to be too stupid!" Su Xing was still very relieved when he heard Su Ruhai say this: "The importance of Fengyi Hall to the Su family is self-evident, can you have the confidence to do it well?"

"Grandpa, Dad, and two uncles, if you hand over Fengyi Hall to me, you will definitely make achievements within three years. Su Ruhai lifted the corner of his clothes and knelt in front of Old Lady Su.

"Dad, you also heard Ruhai's statement!" Su Xing made another series to Old Lady Su: "You should also let the children go through the training, otherwise how can this young eagle spread its wings and soar?"

"Second and third, what do you think?" Old Lady Su glanced at Su Wen and Su Zhu.

"What the eldest brother said makes sense, I don't have any opinion. Su Wen thought that he was about to become the head of the Su family, which was something he didn't dare to think about before, and at this time, where would he oppose Su Xing, who was passing on to him.

"Since the eldest brother and the second brother don't have any opinions, I naturally agree. Su Zhu also echoed.

"In that case, let's do it. After all, Mrs. Su was old, and after only an hour, she was exhausted: "I'm pan, send me back to the room like the wind." ”

"Big brother, let's go back first. As Old Lady Su turned out of the main hall, Su Wen and Su Zhu also said goodbye and left one after another, leaving only Su Xing and Su Ruhai and his son.

"Hmph, Ruhai, where did you go to spend all your time drinking last night?" Su Xing's smile disappeared in an instant.

"Father, me?" Su Ruhai's face was full of shame, Gong Rufeng's lie made him breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect to be seen by Su Xing.

"Hey, knowing a son is better than a father!" Su Xing sighed softly and raised his hand towards Su Ruhai: "Get up, come with me!" ”

"Whoosh!" Yu'er held her breath and flung her jade hand, and the flying locust stone floated twice on the surface of the lake and fell into the water.

"This little girl really has the talent to practice hidden weapons. Tong Bo looked at Yu'er who was practicing hidden weapons from a distance, and couldn't help nodding secretly.

"What is this?" a snow-white carrier pigeon flew from the sky and landed on Tong Bo's shoulder.

"Hmph! It seems that it will be much easier to do things in the future. Tong Bo looked at the letter, touched the pigeon's forehead happily, and released it back into the air.

In the secret room of the Fengyuan Inn, Qi Qi stood motionless at the bottom of the Taishi chair respectfully, as if waiting for someone.

It wasn't long before the door of the stone chamber opened again, and it was the masked woman with a falling ponytail walking slowly.

"I've seen the Lord. When Qi Qi saw the masked woman, he immediately bowed his hand.

"Huh?" The masked woman slowly sat on the Taishi chair and said with a smile: "Qiqi, I haven't seen you for many days, and I can't imagine that your whole person looks like you've been reborn!"

"This is all thanks to the Lord's blessings, so that the subordinate Misty Trail can be practiced to perfection. Qi Qi heard the masked woman's praise, and the corners of his mouth also showed a hint of pride: "In the future, my subordinates will definitely serve the Lord more wholeheartedly." ”

"That's good! With your current cultivation, even if you meet that Zuo Tianhao, you will not be much better!" The masked woman smiled lightly, although she couldn't see her face, Qi Qi could feel that this lord must be graceful

The Covenanter.

"Rest assured, the lord has also fought with that Zuo Tianhao. Qi Qi was very confident: "He's just that." ”

"Qiqi, what do you think of this person?" the masked woman seemed to be unable to make up her mind about what was going on in her heart.

"The lord thinks that this man is fierce, cunning, undisciplined, and completely refined egoist. When Qi Qi thought of the destruction of his cave, he was indignant.

"You're the same as I thought. When the masked woman heard Qi Qi say this, her heart was settled: "Zuo Tianhao is a dangerous person, and he may implicate us in the water at any time." ”

"The subordinates think that it was his eldest brother Zuo Tianmou who negotiated with us before!" Qi Qian didn't want to deal with Zuo Tianhao at all: "Since Zuo Tianmou is dead now, there is no need to explain anything to him about the delivery of medicine!"

"You're right. The masked woman slapped the handle of the chair, took out a stack of silver tickets from her bosom and handed it to Qi Qi: "This is a thousand taels of silver tickets, abolish this stronghold and find a new point, and cut off all contact with the people on Zuo Tianhao's side." ”

"The Lord is wise!" Qi Qi took the silver ticket and was overjoyed in his heart: "My subordinates will do it, and I will guarantee that the new base will be built within a month." ”

"Knock knock! Knock knock! At two o'clock, close the doors and windows, fire prevention and theft!" When Liu Ningshi and An Dafang returned to the guard chief across the courtyard, it was already two watches, but they didn't feel a trace of sleepiness because they found evidence.

"Brother Dafang, quickly open the iron box and take a look, what is inside?" As soon as An Dafang put the box on the table, Liu Ningshi couldn't wait to get up.

"Hmm! let me get the lock open first. An Dafang suddenly pulled out the ring head knife on his waist and waved, and the copper lock was instantly split in half.

"Huh, there seems to be a letter and a map in it?" Liu Ningshi opened the lid of the tin box and took out the letter and a white cloth with a pattern on it.
