Chapter 233: Preparing for War
Eat well.
Yin Tianxing hurriedly said goodbye and left, and everyone didn't have to think about it to know that he was going to find Wenren Coco.
Zhang Hanlin said: "Mother, let the kitchen cook some food, and I'll send it to my senior sister." β
"Huh?"
"What senior sister?"
Bai Shen, Yin Qingyun, Zhang Zhenzhong, and Yu Suxin were the most shocked, and their eyes were staring at Zhang Hanlin one by one.
"Oh, I just wanted to tell you, Gong Lingyue is now my senior sister. Zhang Hanlin said truthfully.
"Who? you say it again?" Bai Shen said in horror as he froze in his seat.
"Dad, it's that black-robed elder sister, Tianji Pavilion Inspector Elder, Brother Hanlin promised to heal her, and then the two of them took heaven and earth as their teacher, and Brother Hanlin and the black-robed sister became senior sisters. Bai Lingxuan explained with a grin.
"......" Bai Shen and Yin Qingyun were a little stunned, this is a senior sister of the Eight Realms Grandmaster?
And Yu Suxin and Lu Lisi didn't understand what the situation was, Bai Lingxuan explained, and only then did they understand that Zhang Hanlin worshiped a senior sister of the Eight Realms of Martial Arts.
Just when everyone was happy for them, Zhang Zhenzhong and Zhang Tianhong looked at Zhang Hanlin with some seriousness, they knew what kind of price Zhang Hanlin had to pay for Gong Lingyue's treatment.
Zhang Hanlin gestured with his eyes like the two of them without a trace, so that the two of them should not worry.
Yu Suxin got up and went to inform the kitchen that he was cooking a few more dishes, and Zhang Hanlin took this opportunity to walk up to Zhang Zhenzhong and Zhang Tianhong, and said in a low voice: "Grandpa, father, you don't have to worry about this matter, I have my own plans." β
Zhang Zhenzhong said angrily: "What am I worried about, I would rather you heal a few more people and break your martial arts dream as soon as possible, otherwise sooner or later you will have to return to your role like an ancestor." β
"Don't worry, father, I have a sense of proportion, and I will not repeat the mistakes of my ancestors. Zhang Hanlin's heart warmed.
Zhang Tianhong on the side said: "Hanlin, you have grown up now, no matter what you do, I will support you, but you must consider the consequences before doing things, because you must be responsible for your own actions." β
"I see, Grandpa, I'll take notice. Zhang Hanlin humbly accepted Zhang Tianhong's suggestion.
After chatting with the two for a while, Zhang Hanlin came to Bai Shen's side and said, "Uncle Bai, this matter has finally come to an end, do you have anything to do next?"
Bai Shen glanced at Zhang Hanlin and said, "Why, looking like this, there is something to tell me." β
"Wait until your Uncle Bai finishes eating, and then talk about things. Yu Suxin happened to come back from the kitchen, and saw Zhang Hanlin and Bai Shen preparing for a discussion at the dining table, and said with a smile.
"It's okay, my family doesn't have to worry about that. Bai Shen smiled and waved his hand, and then said, "Hanlin, do you have any ideas again?" β
"Well, there's something on the agenda. Zhang Hanlin's expression became serious.
Everyone who was eating also quieted down, and they all looked at Zhang Hanlin.
"Uncle Bai, last time I talked about returning the 300,000 taels of silver to the greedy people of the Wang family, presumably the City Lord's Mansion has not been idle recently, so we should investigate the source of these 300,000 taels of silver, right?" Zhang Hanlin looked at Bai Shen.
Bai Shen laughed and said: "I really can't hide anything from you kid, yes, the City Lord's Mansion has been busy investigating this matter in addition to keeping an eye on the movements of the Gu family recently, and it should be sorted out in a few days, but these days without your toss, some families in Dongsheng City have jumped a little again, the Gu family is very silent, there has been no movement recently, but there are many families secretly colluding with the Gu family, I am afraid that the Gu family is planning something big." β
The conversation between the two made everyone's mood also heavy, and the prestige of the Gu family had been accumulated for many years, and it seemed that a big stone was pressing on everyone's hearts again.
"Don't worry too much about this, the Gu family just wants to unite the rest of the families in Dongsheng City and provoke a battle, the purpose is nothing more than to defeat my Zhang family and the City Lord's Mansion, of course, the most important thing is to defeat you, Uncle Bai, so as to seize the position of the city lord. β
The corners of Zhang Hanlin's mouth lifted a smile, and he continued: "But Gu Jinglong's idea is too naΓ―ve, not to mention that now Uncle Yin has also broken through the Grandmaster Realm, even if the Gu family has gathered more martial arts Six Realm masters, we are not worthy of him in the slightest." β
"In addition to you and Uncle Yin, the two Seven Realms Grandmasters, Yu Lian's father, Uncle Yu Zhi has been affected by Uncle Yin's broken mirror, and he has recently been in retreat to prepare for the impact of calm, preparing to return to the Seven Realms of Martial Dao, whether successful or not, Uncle Yu Zhi at least has the strength of the Six Realms of Martial Dao, plus the leader of the Qingxuan Gang Zuo Ping, and his subordinates, together they are not afraid of the Gu family at all. β
Zhang Hanlin finally smiled brightly and said: "Besides, didn't I just recognize a senior sister, she is enough alone, if my senior sister makes a move, the Gu family and their dogs are like chickens and dogs, and they are vulnerable." β
"So, Uncle Bai, no matter what way we look at it, we are invincible. β
Everyone was a little relieved by Zhang Hanlin's reasoned and well-founded analysis.
Bai Shen smiled bitterly and said: "Hanlin, you don't know, the senior of the palace, that is, your senior sister, belongs to the Tianji Pavilion, and the Tianji Pavilion has a rule that no members of the pavilion are allowed to participate in the family struggle, so your senior sister will not interfere in this matter." β
"Hahaha, Uncle Bai, the regulations are dead, but people are alive, Yu Gong she is a person from Tianji Pavilion, Yu Private, she is my senior sister, the Gu family has bullied her junior brother, you can't be indifferent, so you don't have to worry about this at all. β
Zhang Hanlin explained: "But we must now save this deck of hole cards to the end to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the Gu family must be eliminated, otherwise I will not be at ease when I go out to travel the rivers and lakes." β
"This ......" Bai Shen opened his mouth, feeling that what Zhang Hanlin said also made some sense, and then said: "This is the best, the Gu family must indeed be eliminated, if the Gu family is allowed to develop for a few years, Dongshengcheng may really be in his pocket, and at that time, the people of Dongshengcheng will suffer." β
"Well, Uncle Bai, these days are still keeping an eye on the Gu family, and the source of the 300,000 taels of silver that the Wang family is greedy for ink should be sorted out as soon as possible, the shelter I entrusted to the Bu family to build is also about to be completed, and when the shelter is officially opened, the 300,000 taels will be returned to the people together, so that even if the Gu family starts a war, many people will be on our side, as for those families, they can be wooed, and if they can't be wooed, then they will have a good beating, and with Gu
The family that has already secretly colluded with the family should not think that they can rebel against them, it is estimated that the Gu family has already drawn a big cake for them and hung them. β
Bai Shen nodded and said: "I have already planned this matter, and I will prepare to act from tomorrow, but in the past two days, you give me some peace, don't go out to make trouble for me again, as soon as you cause trouble, there will be a family that will be unlucky, originally there has been a rumor in Dongdong Shengcheng recently, if you make trouble again, I am afraid it will really make some neutral families turn their hearts to the Gu family." Beating is a good thing, but if the heat is too big, it will be too much. β
Zhang Hanlin said with a straight expression: "Thank you Uncle Bai for your teachings, I remember it." β
After the two finished talking, the rest breathed a sigh of relief and began to continue eating.
Yin Qingyun said suddenly: "Hanlin, what should Shen Lie do?"
"This, I almost forgot about him. Zhang Hanlin frowned.
When he first learned that Shen Lie had poisoned Yue'er's brother-in-law, if he hadn't been worried about startling the snake, he would have been arrested and convicted and sentenced.
But when he saw the news from the investigation of Tianji Pavilion, it was the poison of the plague under the command of Che Chi Huazong under Shen Lie, Zhang Hanlin couldn't wait to dismantle the two of them, not only for Sister Yue'er, but also for the tens of thousands of people in Dongsheng City who had a sharp blade hanging on their heads at any time.
Later, with the deepening of the investigation, Che Chi Huazong was manipulated by Chi You Yuntian to do such a thing, although he was guilty, but the crime was not to death, and then after he recovered his mind, he helped Zhang Hanlin crack the antidote formula of the plague poison to a certain extent, and finally solved the threat of the plague poison, which can be regarded as making up for it.
As for Shen Lie, Zhang Hanlin thought about Bai Shen's explanation just now, and asked himself not to cause trouble, then he definitely couldn't make a move in this regard, and the City Lord's Mansion definitely couldn't make a move.
If the City Lord's Mansion makes a move, the movement will not be small, and there will be many people, if this matter is known to everyone, I am afraid that the poison of the plague will not be able to be hidden.
Even if they had now lifted the threat of the plague poison, if the news of the plague poison almost broke out in Dongsheng City, ordinary people would be extremely panicked.
This incident happened in Dongsheng City, which is the territory under the jurisdiction of Uncle Bai, if there is such a thing, Uncle Bai must be responsible, if the Gu family uses the fear of the people to incite the people's emotions, so that the City Lord's Mansion loses the support of the people and supports the Gu family instead, this is not a good thing for the Zhang Mansion and the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Hanlin does not want to see this situation.
In a short period of time, Zhang Hanlin's thoughts flew around, and he thought of all kinds of consequences in an instant.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Hanlin said: "Uncle Yin, Uncle Bai, Shen Lie, we are not suitable to come forward in this matter, since this matter is caused by Che Chi Huazong, then it will be handed over to Che Chi Huazong to deal with, I think the Che Chi clan should understand what to do." β
"Yes, it's best to leave this matter to the Chechi clan. "Bai Shen and Yin Qingyun are both recognized.
Bai Shen said: "That's it, I'll give a letter to Che Chi Boyuan's predecessor tomorrow, explaining that the poison of the plague has been solved and that Shen Lie will hand it over to Che Chi's clan to deal with." β
"Very good. Zhang Tianhong stroked his beard and expressed his opinion.
