Chapter 58: The undercurrent of the Lushan faction is surging, and the alliance leader's mansion is miscalculated
"Senior Brother Master, you died too miserably. β
The mountains don't know how many years have passed, and the news of Qiu Wu's death has almost reached Lushan together with the invincible letters. When the people of the Lushan faction heard the news, they were in chaos, and by the time Qiu Wen Fuling returned to the mountain to hold the funeral, it was already a few months later. Seeing Liu Yu crying sadly, Qiu Wen couldn't help but persuade: "Senior Brother Liu, the eldest brother has already gone, don't be too sad." β
Liu Yu cried: "I am the youngest of my fellow sects, and I have always had to be taken care of by the senior brother in charge. Now that he is dead at the hands of the demon traitors, I must avenge him. He looked at Qiu Wen: "Senior sister, when you come back this time, will you leave again?"
Qiu Wen knelt in front of the spirit, holding her little nephew who didn't know the world in her arms: "Don't go, my eldest brother and sister-in-law both died, and I have to help them raise this child." β
"Then will you be the head?" Liu Yu said: "In the past few days, I heard that the senior brothers and uncles were discussing, the senior brother in charge died suddenly, there was no apprentice behind him, and the nephew was too young......
"I'm not interested in being in charge. Qiu Wen still looks indifferent, although she is guarding her brother's spirit, she still does not shy away from wearing a red dress. Liu Yu sighed and said, "Senior sister, can't you still forgive the senior brother in charge, it's been more than ten years." β
Qiu Wen said coldly: "I'm not afraid to tell you, if he hadn't died, if he hadn't left this child without anyone to take care of, I wouldn't have returned to Lushan." I have no interest in succeeding him. β
Liu Yu's expression was uncertain, Qiu Wen saw that he didn't speak, and said clearly: "Senior Brother Liu, I heard that you are now famous in the rivers and lakes, you are my father's youngest apprentice, and you are also qualified to succeed the head." β
Liu Yu waved his hand again and again: "Senior sister, don't laugh at me." Don't you know how many pounds and taels I have, how can I be in charge?"
Qiu Wen was about to speak, but someone came and shouted: "Senior Sister, Senior Brother Liu, Senior Uncle Huang, Senior Uncle Chen, and Senior Uncle Wu are all in the council hall, please come over and speak." β
"Got it. Qiu Wen glanced at Liu Yu: "You don't have to be presumptuous, look, the uncles and uncles are also interested in you succeeding to the head." The two came all the way to the Lushan faction meeting hall, Huang Sheng, Chen Jianbei, Wu Tong and other elders of the Lushan faction arrived, and when they saw Qiu Wen, the others were somewhat embarrassed, only Huang Sheng stood up and said, "Wen'er, you are here." β
Qiu Wen shouted in a low voice: "Uncle Huang, all uncles are good. β
Huang Sheng sighed with emotion: "Wen'er, you are willing to come back, Uncle Shi is really happy." Now is the most difficult time for the Lushan faction, you don't have to pay attention to the past. β
Qiu Wen's expression remained unchanged: "Uncle Shi said that I laughed, I have long forgotten the past." β
Huang Sheng nodded: "That's good, come, sit down." Liu Yu, you also sit down, we have something to discuss with you. β
Qiu Wen found a corner and sat down, and was very attached to her aunt in her arms, and fell asleep sweetly on top of her. Huang Sheng smiled and said, "Look, I like his aunt very much." My approach works. β
Chen Jianbei shook his head: "It's not proper, this matter is related to the century-old foundation of the Lushan faction, this child is only two years old, how can he guarantee that he will be able to take on heavy responsibilities when he grows up?"
Huang Sheng said: "With a few of our old guys watching, and his aunt teaching, how can we go?"
Chen Jianbei still shook his head: "It's still inappropriate." In my opinion, it's better to choose between the two of them. He looked at Qiu Wen and Liu Yu: "Wen'er, Liu Yu, the Lushan faction is now the most difficult time, and the two of you, as disciples of the Lushan faction, should take on the heavy responsibility for the century-old foundation of the Lushan faction." β
Liu Yu got up and said respectfully: "Uncle Chen has taught the truth, and the disciples are taught. β
Qiu Wen didn't move, and said lightly: "Your uncles and uncles are very loving, but I am used to being idle and wild, and it is difficult for me to take on this great responsibility." The contour is still young, and I don't want him to get involved in disputes too soon. After the funeral of my eldest brother, I will take him away, and please choose another smart position for the head of the house. β
Huang Sheng hurriedly said, "Wen'er, do you still want to leave?"
Wu Tong snorted: "Look, am I still right? Her heart is not in Lushan at all, can she afford the century-old foundation of the Lushan faction? Is she worthy of being the leader?"
Qiu Wen smiled: "Naturally, I am not worthy, I was driven out of Lushan by you more than ten years ago, and I really don't like the position of the head of the Lushan faction." β
"You ......" Wu Tong was angry, and Huang Sheng hurriedly pulled him over and sat down: "Okay, Senior Brother Wu, didn't we say okay, don't mention the past again?"
Wu Tong snorted angrily: "I think Liu Yu is good, he is also a senior brother and apprentice, he has good martial arts, and people know etiquette, I am the first to agree when he is in charge." β
Liu Yu smiled bitterly: "Master Wu Bomo is going to joke, how can the disciple be compared to the senior sister, the disciple will never dare to take over as the head." β
Chen Jianbei's eyes swept over Qiu Wen and Liu Yu, and he muttered for a long time and said: "This matter is not in a hurry, you two go back and think about it first, and then talk back after thinking clearly." β
"Yes, the disciple retired. Liu Yuli thought about it for a few weeks and bowed down and withdrew from the conference hall. Qiu Wen didn't say a word, got up and left, Wu Tong pointed at her and said angrily: "Look, look at what she looks like? Can she be the head of the house? The only brother is dead, he doesn't bring filial piety or crying, and he wears red clothes all day long, what kind of body does he become?"
Chen Jianbei shouted: "Shut up, do you want to make the relationship more stiff? Liu Yu is good, but it is far worse than Wen'er." Wen'er was the best martial artist among the disciples of the Lushan faction more than ten years ago, I looked at her carefully just now, but I'm afraid that even a few of us are no match for her now. β
Huang Sheng agreed: "Yes, in fact, before the senior brother died, he intended Wen'er to inherit the head. Now that the Lushan faction is in chaos, if she is willing, it is good for her to succeed the leader. β
Chen Jianbei sighed: "Alas, Qiu Wu, a fool, will die if he dies, and he has killed so many excellent disciples. The Lushan faction is now suffering from a big injury, and it really needs a person with good martial arts and courage to succeed the head and help the Lushan faction tide over the difficulties. β
He looked at Huang Sheng: "Back then, we helped Qiu Wu take the position of head of the house, and Wen'er was afraid that she was still blaming us." She has had a good relationship with you since she was a child, so go and persuade her. If she insists on refusing, then she can only choose Liu Yu. β
Huang Sheng nodded: "Okay, I'll persuade her." He turned around and left, Wu Tong was dissatisfied, and approached Chen Jianbei and said: "Senior brother, the letter of the leader of the broken alliance said that he wants Liu Yu to succeed him as the head of the Lushan faction." How do you ......"
Chen Jianbei snorted: "Although we are his people who do things for the Alliance Lord's Mansion, we are also disciples of the Lushan Sect, and we can't forget our roots." Liu Yu is mediocre, if he is made the leader, the Lushan faction will completely fall into the hands of the leader of the Broken Alliance, is this what you want to see?"
Wu Tong was stunned for a moment, then got up and said, "Senior Brother Chen has taught me a lesson, and my junior brother is confused. He turned around and left, Chen Jianbei looked at his back and took a spit.
"Wen'er, can we talk?"
It was getting late, and Qiu Wen was sitting alone in the gazebo in the guest courtyard in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking. She has been away from Lushan for more than ten years, and the room that belonged to her has long been used for other purposes, so she can only temporarily live in the guest house, which is really ironic. Seeing that Huang Sheng came uninvited, she lowered her body slightly, and still sat steadily, Huang Sheng shook his head and said: "Wen'er, it's been more than ten years, are you still blaming Uncle Shi? Back then, Uncle Shi was really a last resort." β
Qiu Wen said coldly: "I know you have no choice, I don't blame you." But can't I blame those old guys?"
Huang Sheng sat down beside her and said sadly: "Uncle Shi knows that you are wronged, and your father did leave a last word for you to succeed to the head of the house. But the brothers and sisters did not agree, so your brother conspired with them to drive you away while your in-laws came to propose marriage...... Wen'er, you haven't heard from you for more than ten years, how are you doing in Suzhou?"
Qiu Wen laughed out loud: "Okay, of course I'm fine." My husband fell seriously ill and died during the visit, and my bride, who was sent to Chongxi, was taken as a mourning star and kicked out of her in-law's house. I've been wandering alone in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, but I'm going to talk about it. β
Huang Sheng exclaimed: "What? Back then, when you were less than eighteen years old, you would rather wander the rivers and lakes alone than go back to Lushan?"
"That's why I don't want to be the head, do you think that after more than ten years, I will forget about that incident back then?" Qiu Wen chuckled: "You make me sick, if I can, I don't want to see you again in my life." β
"So your eldest brother died, and you didn't look sad at all?" Huang Sheng looked up and sighed: "Wen'er, you were personally taught and raised by Senior Brother, why didn't you even learn a little bit of Senior Brother's mind? Now it's not your personal grudge, it's the Lushan Sect's century-old foundation that is about to be destroyed." Your eldest brother went to Jinling this time, and all the people he brought with him were the experts of the Lushan faction. Now in Lushan, there are no disciples who can pull out to support the faΓ§ade. If an enemy comes to the door now, the Lushan faction will be finished. β
Qiu Wen's heart moved, and she couldn't help but say, "It's so serious? Are you saying that the current Lushan faction is an empty shell?"
"yes, so I want you to come back and take on the responsibilities of the head. Your martial arts are very good, and there are few opponents in the rivers and lakes, with you, there is still hope for the Lushan faction. Huang Sheng was very excited: "Originally, I wanted to let the son inherit his father's business, and it would be good for you to help." It's just that the contouring is still too young after all, Senior Brother Chen is right, the Lushan faction is in urgent need of a capable head now, and this position belongs to you. β
"Liu Yu is not bad, why don't you choose him?"
Huang Sheng looked around, and after making sure that there was no one, he lowered his voice and said, "Wen'er, let me ask you, do you really believe that your eldest brother was killed by someone from the Demon Sect?"
Qiu Wen was taken aback, and it took a long time before she said: "It seems that Uncle Shi and I have come to a place, the eldest brother died strangely, and someone blamed the Demon Sect and borrowed a knife to kill people." β
Huang Sheng nodded: "Wen'er, you are really as smart as before." It's just that we have no evidence for this matter, so we can only put up with it for the time being. You just said that Liu Yu is qualified to be the leader, so do you know that Liu Yu's high status in the Lushan faction was single-handedly promoted by the alliance leader's mansion?"
"He's from the Alliance Lord's Mansion?" Qiu Wen was surprised: "I haven't seen him for more than ten years, it's really a matter of fact." The leader of the broken alliance wants Liu Yu to succeed him as the head of the Lushan faction, so that the Lushan faction can be firmly in his hands? β
Qiu Wen was furious: "Uncle Shi, you don't have to say it anymore, I will be the head of this house." Daddy left a will before his death, let me magnify the Lushan faction, this is originally my responsibility, I will never let the Lushan faction fall into the hands of outsiders. β
Huang Sheng was so excited that he said three times in a row: "Good, good, good." β
