"Mr. Tang's life or death is uncertain?" Qi Zhengyan's first reaction was to confirm the news.
The buddy nodded vigorously: "Yes, it is said that Second Young Master Tang jumped into the water after being injured, and the assassin also jumped down, and he didn't show up again after that."
Qi Zhengyan's expressionless face was dignified, and he ordered the staff: "Get out of the city quickly and report this matter to Mr. Lin."
Meng Qi listened calmly, and when the buddy left and the two returned to the backyard, he asked, "Second Young Master Tang is important?"
Qi Zhengyan nodded slightly: "He is the grandson of the eldest son. If Mr. Tang passes away, according to the etiquette, he should inherit the position of head of the family."
"Where's his father?" Meng Qi asked suspiciously.
Qi Zhengyan roughly explained: "Mr. Tang's branch is the head of the family, and has always held the position of the head of the family. Mr. Tang himself has three sons and four daughters. The daughters either marry other aristocratic families, or marry rising forces or sects, and the son dies of illness. One of them died in an accident while traveling the world, and the only surviving Uncle Tang also died when Second Young Master Tang was practicing kung fu and became obsessed with magic, leaving Second Young Master Tang and Miss Tang Jiu alone."
"So that's how it is." Meng Qi finally understood the status of the son surnamed Tang in the family, and asked intentionally, "Since he is the future patriarch, why didn't the Tang family send a master of Jiuqiao to protect him?"
Qi Zhengyan said without expression: "As the only grandson of the eldest son, Mr. Tang Er has been favored by Mr. Tang since he was a child. He is not used to being human, arrogant, extravagant and lustful. Relying on the elixir to open his eyes, and later because of face, he clashed with Young Master Ye San, who is also a dude, and the two sides agreed to a martial arts competition."
"Mr. Ye San stole Tianshi Di Tingwan from home, opened his ears before the competition, and humiliated Mr. Tang Er with absolute strength. It is said that he was beaten to the knees. After this incident, the second Mr. Tang who is good-faced Feeling ashamed to see others, taking advantage of the elders in the family not paying attention, he quietly left the city, wandering around the world, missing his whereabouts, so angry that Mr. Tang was furious, anyone in the family who dared to mention Mr. Tang or Tang Jing in front of him would have to be hit with a cane."
Meng Qi nodded lightly: "Master Tang is seriously ill. If this bad news reaches his ears, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for long. Besides, the position of Patriarch is vacant, and internal struggles are inevitable. I wonder who the Huanhua faction wants to support?"
Qi Zhengyan took two steps with his hands behind his back: "For the rest of the houses, the only ones who are capable of competing for the head of the house are Tang Erye, Tang Wuye and Tang Qiye. Tang Wuye has always been on good terms with this faction, and Mr. Lin favors him."
"Actually, when I entered Huanzhou this time, I happened to be on the same boat as Mr. Wan Dagong and Mr. Tang Ergong, and I witnessed their murder." After Meng Qi learned about the general situation, Fang told Qi Zhengyan what happened to him, including the final discovery The matter of Tang Ergongzi's body and human skin mask, as well as speculation about Tang Ergongzi Tang Jing's escape from disaster and his return home.
Qi Zhengyan fell into deep thought, and then said after a while: "Cousin, your guess should be right. After you said that, I just remembered that a stranger had inquired about Mr. Tang Er in Yicheng some time ago, but there was no trace of him in the past few days. .¡±
The assassin succeeded, so naturally there is no need to inquire.
"Don't publicize the death of the second young master Tang, let the Tang family think about it, so as not to cause a sudden change." Meng Qi pondered, "You better spread the news that the third young master Ye didn't want his enemy to return home, so he hired an assassin to kill Tang. Second Young Master, he killed Young Master Wan to silence him."
This kind of rumor does not require everyone to believe it, but only sows the seeds of doubt, so that there will be cracks in the possible refuge. After all, the third son of Ye is vicious and has a grudge against the second son of Tang. Xiang inherited the position of Patriarch and was able to mobilize a lot of resources, even valuable soldiers. Young Master Ye was in danger. Although he would not die, he would not be humiliated.
Qi Zhengyan nodded slightly: "OK."
He thought for a while, and said: "You'd better not go out during this time, the situation is just at the moment when the whole body is mobilized, although no one dares to attack me first, which provokes the wrath of the Huanhua Sword Sect, but Your identity is more subtle, and the Ye family can't afford to lose face."
Can't protect Ke Qing, let him be killed in a grandiose manner in the mansion, how can Ke Qing be made to work for the Ye family in the future?
Although hurting the relatives of the disciples of the Huanhua Sword Sect will also make the Huanhua Sword Sect angry. After all, a sect cannot even protect the relatives of its own disciples, and there will always be problems with centripetal force and cohesion. , did not take the life of Qi Zhengyan's cousin, but only broke his tendons and tendons, and preserved the possibility of a normal life outside of martial arts in the future, but there are some exceptions, such as this relative causing trouble first, being retaliated by others, The Huanhua Sword Sect may not be willing to get involved, otherwise it will be easy for someone with a heart to take advantage of this to make a fuss.
"Okay, I came here to live a stable life and concentrate on practicing martial arts." Meng Qi said without hesitation, and then looked at Qi Zheng with a smile."Qi lines", pierced the red glow, although it was exhausted, but Bing Que pierced in quietly and plainly, and the timing was just right.
Meng Qi withdrew his sword and hurriedly drove out the cold with his luck. Qi Zhengyan's Bi Bingxue true energy is not unusual. Not only is it highly condensed, but it will also freeze the blood after entering the body. Quite affected, if it wasn't for the Eighty-Nine Mysterious Kung Fu and the Golden Bell Shade, he wouldn't be able to make the last cut at all.
"It's really cold." Meng Qi put his sword back into its sheath, rubbed his hands together and said, "Cousin, when you open your nose, if I don't use the location method of pressing the bottom of the box, I'm afraid it's hard to say that I will win."
Qi Zhengyan, who has practiced "Huntian Baojian", is almost equivalent to a half-step exterior scene with a reduced range and power.
Qi Zhengyan said he was defeated, but his expression was somewhat happy. In his heart, Junior Brother Meng Qi would definitely be ranked in the top 20 on the list. Being able to fight against him to this extent shows that he has the strength to step into the list. , for an ordinary disciple who was still unable to see the day of his success, it is really gratifying.
The two had two more rounds of discussion, and each gained a lot. At noon, Mr. Lin sent someone to deliver a letter.
Qi Zhengyan opened the letter, frowned slightly, and exhaled.
"What did he say?" Meng Qi raised his eyebrows.
Qi Zhengyan said in a deep voice: "He accused us of disregarding the overall situation and provoking trouble without authorization."
"Cousin, what are you going to do?" Meng Qi smiled indifferently.
Qi Zhengyan said without expression: "If you say that the Ye family has slandered you, if you suspect us, you can write back to the mountain, and ask the masters and uncles of the Xingtang to investigate."
"Okay, that's the attitude." Meng Qi laughed.
Qi Zhengyan glanced at him: "Boss Lin never believed that my cousin was murdered by Li Sui, and thought that I wanted to stir up trouble to gain credit. Cousin, why did you believe my words? "
"You are my cousin." Meng Qi said with a half-smile, and then said in a serious tone, "We are friends of life and death, you can handle this matter yourself, you can't use me, hey, if you are friends of life and death I can¡¯t even believe it, so I¡¯m going to believe in Ye¡¯s family? I¡¯m not a six-door arrester, so I don¡¯t care about the whole story, I know you and your cousin have suffered, that¡¯s enough.¡±
When asking for directions, he checked to see if there was such a thing.
In the next few days, the weather was calm, and Meng Qi stayed at home, concentrating on his cultivation, until Tang Wuye sent a letter to invite Master Lin and Qi Zhengyan. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
