Zhao Yan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed the footsteps of Wang Qi Hongpu, and after crossing one after another solid foundation, he found that Wang Qi Hongpu's footsteps stopped, and there was no movement to continue advancing, so he stopped and quietly hid under the soil to listen to the situation above.

Wang Qi Hongpu gently knocked on the door of the backyard of Mingyue Firm, and respectfully waited outside the door for the summons of the people in the room.

"Hongpu is here, sit down", the door was opened by a young and beautiful woman, and at the same time, an old male voice came from inside.

Wang Qi Hongpu didn't squint, passed by the young woman by the door, walked directly to the place where the old man was sitting in the room, stood in the hall and said respectfully: "Clan Elder, Hongpu is really embarrassing to you, you can't do a little thing, and you will be tired from coming to Huaizhou in person." ”

The room is not large, with six futons, a main seat with a chair, and two vases on either side of the main seat, each with three plum blossoms, which are emitting bursts of fragrance, and the atmosphere is particularly peaceful and clean.

The old man on the main seat leaned back against the chair, one arm was on his head, his feet were slightly bent very casually, and his gray hair was tied around at random and fell on his back. ”

"But I still have to explain what is going on inside, because I know that the clan elder is the most just at home", Wang Qihongpu chuckled inwardly, realizing that he had said the wrong thing to the right person.

The reason why this clan elder promoted Wang Qi Hongpu back then was that Wang Qi Hongpu was upright and unpretentious, and had always treated him with the etiquette of his nephews, and now he came here for Wang Qi Hongpu's affairs, where would he want to listen to those words that admit mistakes.

Hearing Wang Qi Hongpu's explanation, his face returned to his previous gentle appearance, and he pointed to a futon on the right: "Sit down and talk, it's okay, I'll also listen to how your master collapsed step by step." ”

Wang Qi Hongpu heard the half-joking words in the mouth of the clan elder, and breathed a heavy sigh of relief in his heart, and took the opportunity to turn around and sit down to wipe the sweat off his forehead, and smiled helplessly at the clan elder: "This time I went to the north for about three years, and my nephew can barely make a big contribution, and he can barely make a difference." ”

The old man was not without sarcasm: "There is a dead brother, one less Yanzong, and by the way, most of the shadows in the surrounding areas of Yanzhou were buried, this is what you said about reluctant delivery?

Wang Qi Hongpu smiled bitterly: "After you listen to me, the situation in the north has become what it is now, Hongpu is indeed responsible, but it doesn't seem like something I can do alone." ”

The old man nodded, poured a cup of tea on the desk, and motioned for Wang Qi Hongpu to continue while drinking.

Wang Qi Hongpu smelled the fragrance of tea, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva, he had been walking for more than a month, and he was nervous at the moment, and he was seduced by the fragrance of tea, which really made him feel a little thirsty.

"Let's drink", the patriarch saw Wang Qi Hongpu's humble appearance, smiled, and added a cup of tea to Wang Qi Hongpu.

Wang Qi Hongpu also smiled, hurriedly took the tea from mid-air, drank it in one gulp, and said: "Clan elder, don't you know how much your nephew has suffered when he flees all the way from the north this time, and the twenty juniors, all of them are going to cry for their fathers and mothers." ”

The clan elder scolded with a smile: "Okay, put away your pitiful appearance, don't engage in these vain things in front of me." ”

Although Wang Qi Hongpu was scolded, his heart was calmer than before, and the old Chong clan smiled and said: "The situation in the Northland is even worse than I imagined before I went to the Northland, and all kinds of small groups have emerged one after another, all of them want to take advantage of the sect forces in the control area. ”

The clan elder listened to Wang Qi Hongpu's remarks and was noncommittal, and drank tea quietly.

Wang Qihongpu didn't know what the clan elder was thinking, and continued according to the words he had prepared in his heart: "They are too far away from the south, they have almost become the second center, they have their own ideas, many of them are superb, but they are not as knowledgeable as a child in the market, fighting all day long. ”

"Do you have real evidence?", the color on the patriarch's face did not change, and he asked Wang Yuhongpu tepidly.

Wang Qi Hongpu immediately said: "Yes, and there are many, and I was fortunate to see it in person once, those people were drunk and difficult to turn back, and even directly made a deal with the local sect forces to annex the local powerful property. ”

The clan elder smiled: "It seems that you are angry at their hands, tell me, I want to hear it." ”

"Yes", Wang Qi Hongpu was a little aggrieved, but he didn't dare to disobey the old man, although he was a thousand years old, he was still a child in front of the elder, so he slowly talked about the transfer of the past few years.

When it came to the dead Wang Qi Hongze, he still couldn't calm down, and it was difficult to forget the situation when the other party openly accepted gifts and abducted the women of good families, and he was even more angry because Wang Qi Hongze almost ruined the big things in the underground palace.

In this regard, the clan elder still just smiled: "You, although you have passed thousands of years, you are still a young character, this is the disadvantage of cultivating future generations of elites in the family, they always hope to wait until the little dolls have become masters before they are born, but they don't understand that the experience in the red world is difficult to cultivate." ”

"The old man has learned the right lesson, and Hongpu has also found that he has many shortcomings and is trying his best to adapt", Wang Hongpu continued.

"Don't perfunctory me", the patriarch saw through Wang Hongpu's flattering words at a glance, and glanced at Wang Hongpu lightly.

Wang Qi Hongpu immediately went down honestly and didn't dare to speak.

The patriarch retracted his gaze and said: "Your conclusion is not wrong, the Northland is indeed becoming more and more estranged from the family, and the family is trying to find a way to remedy it, and it is impossible to parachute down like sending you, and people are waiting to see your jokes, so you will send the jokes to the door." ”

Wang Qi Hongpu lowered his head: "Hongpu is not good for ......"

The patriarch smiled lightly: "It's really unfavorable, but it's not a big deal, I think when I was in office, it was bigger than the basket you poked, and I slowly came over." ”

Wang Qi Hongpu lowered his head, glanced at the clan elder, and found that the clan elder did not look impassive when he said this, so he had a general analysis of this matter in his heart.

"The Wang family is not so easy to fall", the clan elder paused, and then said: "You will hand over all the materials you have collected later, so that I can take them back to the clan elders for discussion." ”

"I know", Wang Qi Hongpu nodded, and when he saw that the clan elder was about to leave, he asked more eagerly: "Clan elder, when are we going home?"
