In fact, after dinner, Qianye didn't quite understand what Wei Potian's two elders wanted to do. This meal was a genuine home-cooked meal, with rich dishes and no complicated table manners. It was just like ordinary people eating together.
There were only Wei Dongming, Wei Bainian, Wei Potian and him, plus a staff member who seemed to have a good position in the Wei family.
Wei Potian was extremely honest, and whenever Wei Marquis opened his mouth, he was usually lecturing him. Wei Bainian and his staff seemed to be quite elegant people, and the topics they used to liven up the atmosphere were all about the customs and customs of various places, as well as Qianye
I only heard the name but didn't know the details of the aristocratic hobby. Qianye was not good at socializing. When he spoke, he would simply answer questions briefly. What was strange was that they did not ask more about Qianye's origins.
When Qianye said goodbye, Wei Potian insisted on seeing him off and jumped directly into the driver's seat of the off-road vehicle without waiting for a reply. Qianye looked at Wei Potian's face and looked a little depressed and wanted to vomit his bitterness.
The off-road vehicle roared out as if it was about to fly. Qianye lived just one block away, but Wei Potian made a large circle in the opposite direction, but it only took about the same time as usual to reach the door of the small courtyard.
, obviously only such high speed can make him feel better.
Wei Dongming and Wei Bainian were upstairs watching the SUV rush out of the street. The staff had already retired, and not even the maid was left in the room. Only the two brothers were talking to each other.
Wei Bainian first said: "I have seen the scene. The remains of Wu Zhengnan's corpse were ignited by the flames of the Force. Qiyang cannot do this. His friend does not seem to have such Force attributes." He thought.
After thinking for a while, he said: "It is not that there is no one at the expeditionary force headquarters. It is impossible to say that there is no difference in the scene. But I heard that it was Qiyang who came to deal with it from the beginning to the end. They didn't even ask if it was still there at that time.
There are other survivors who can come forward to testify."
Although Wei Hou came to Yongye Continent quietly, his target was still too eye-catching, so after he entered Heiliu City and went directly to Wei Potian's office, he never left the residence. What he wanted to see,
Wei Bainian went there one by one.
Hearing this, Wei Dongming said calmly: "Even the attitude of the 'black-faced Xiao' is so loud and clear. When did he become so easy to talk to? I, the Prince of Bowang, don't have such a great reputation."
"Brother, what you mean is that Qiyang is going to overthrow Wu Zhengnan this time, and someone has actually paved the road to the expeditionary force headquarters behind the scenes? But it's not my Wei family's hand?"
Wei Dongming nodded and said: "It is possible, but whether Qiyang knows it is between two minds." He smiled coldly and said: "Otherwise, why was Zhang Youheng so eager to clear up the matter after the accident? If he had known about the expedition earlier
If the military headquarters has this ambiguous attitude now, it will not just let it go."
Wei Bainian frowned and said, "This person is too adaptable to the wind."
"It doesn't matter. Although his surname is Zhang, he is not from the Zhang clan. It's not wrong to be more cautious. Just use him less in the future." Wei Dongming didn't care much about the military police inspector's withdrawal midway, and just asked, "You
What do you think of this friend from Qiyang?"
"A good knife, but difficult to control."
Wei Dongming was silent for a while this time and then said: "There are people behind him."
Wei Bainian also agreed. Qianye didn't look like someone who could plan and appease Xiao Lingshi.
At this time, in Qianye's small courtyard, Wei Potian shouted to Ah Qi and Ah Jiu who were welcoming them out of the room, "Bring the wine!"
Qianye glanced at him, walked into the room, took the two bottles of spirits handed over by Ah Qi, and dropped a drop of homemade stimulant into each.
Wei Potian stretched out his hand to grab a bottle, raised his neck and drank half of the bottle in one breath. Then he slammed the bottle on the table and said bitterly: "You said, I promised so many benefits, why is that guy like this?"
Refuse to stay? Doesn’t his grandma mean to embarrass me? "
"Which guy?"
"Who else is there? Uncle Liutang. To be able to take over as division commander, you must not only be a general, but also need to know military affairs. At the moment, he is really the only one available in the family." Speaking of this, Wei Potian couldn't help but feel a little confused.
discouraged.
After Wei Bainian came back, he went to visit while the iron was hot, but he was sent out respectfully in less than half an hour. Naturally, the negotiation was not concluded. If there was a second choice, how could he, the young master Wei, accept such a bird-like attitude?
Qianye felt a slight movement in his heart. It turned out that Wei Bainian was the Wei family's candidate to take over the defense area of the 7th Division, but he had other motives based on Wei Hou's actions.
The Wei family probably regarded this action against Wu Zhengnan as another opportunity for the prince to practice in actual combat, so they laid out the overall situation, but Wei Potian still needs to handle the details himself. After bumping into each other until now, the last hurdle is
A suitable candidate has been found to reorganize the 7th Division.
However, even Qianye, an outsider, could see that people like Wei Bainian seemed to be overqualified to garrison the Yongye Continent defense zone. It seems that Wei Hou’s original intention was to let Wei Potian retreat in the face of difficulties and let go of this small place early. But if
Wei Potianzhen was able to convince Wei Bainian to stay, which is not bad. At least the Wei family has an extra base on Yongye Continent, although it is a bit useless.
At this moment, Qianye thought of the contents of the box that Song Zining gave him, and also thought of the conversation between Wei Bainian and his staff at the dinner table, and suddenly he vaguely grasped its meaning.
"Why didn't he take over as commander of the Seventh Division?"
"How do I know! God knows what Uncle Liutang is thinking. If he has no intention of staying at all, then why would he come all the way to Heiliu City!" Wei Potian complained while gulping down wine. In the blink of an eye,
He poured the other bottle of wine into his stomach.
Wei Potian kept talking for more than half an hour. He was already drunk and already a little unsteady on his feet. So he let out a long sigh, called the guards who came over, and left unsteadily. Listening to Wei Potian's complaints, most of them were
Focusing on handling the trivial matters these days. He must have been holding back his anger for a long time, and just took this opportunity to vent together.
During the whole process, Qianye just listened quietly for most of the time. As the prince of Bowang Hou and the future helmsman of the family, this is a responsibility that Wei Potian will encounter sooner or later, and it will only be bigger than the small Heiliu City.
It was even more complicated and complicated. Wei Potian obviously knew it very well, so all he needed tonight was an audience.
After Wei Potian left, Qianye walked into the bedroom, looked at the wooden box placed by the bedside, and pondered. He was now certain that the contents inside were prepared for Wei Bainian. Qianye thought for a while,
Shaking your head and laughing, is this considered "giving in to others"?
The night passed very peacefully. Qianye was a person who did whatever he thought of, so he went to Wei Bainian's residence early the next morning and asked to see him.
When Wei Bainian asked what he wanted, Qianye pondered for a moment, knowing that he was not good at persuading in large words, so he simply got straight to the point: "General Wei should be the best candidate to take over the 7th Division. But I don't know why he refuses to take over?"
Wei Bainian asked back: "Then why do you think I should take over the position of teacher?"
Qianye was startled and found that this question was indeed difficult to answer.
As soon as the words "future" came out of his mouth, Qianye shook his head. With Wei Bainian's qualifications and background, how could he not find a full-time division commander in any major army? The prospects were naturally much better than those of the second-rate expeditionary force.
Qianye thought for a while and asked, "I wonder if General Wei has any plans to go up to the next level?"
Only between life and death is the easiest way to break through. This is the creed of the strong men of the Great Qin Empire. Many warrior-level strong men have overcome obstacles all the way. The war zone where Black Current City is located is about to usher in a battle with the dark race, which may attract
Those who are determined to become stronger.
Wei Bainian smiled, and said mockingly: "I know my qualifications well in my heart, and I'm afraid it's impossible to improve my strength. In this case, it's better to live a more stable life so that my family can feel at ease."
This blocked Qianye's next words. If, as Wei Bainian himself said, his strength has reached a bottleneck and it is difficult to break through, then he will probably consider a relatively stable life. This is also human nature. Especially the children of these aristocratic families, there are
His parents, wife, children, relatives, and subordinates have a lot of worries, and it is not impossible that he will lose all his energy. Maybe he is the only general in the Wei family who can lead the army, and there is a reason behind it.
The living room suddenly fell silent. Wei Bainian looked very calm and showed no sign of impatience.
"But there are tens of thousands of people living in the entire defense areas of these two cities."
Wei Bainian laughed and said: "The tens of thousands of people in Yongye Continent are not more important than the people of my Far East Province. If you are not here, it will be the same if you work elsewhere." The wording of his words was quite polite.
For the empire, the native people are of course much more important than the residents of the abandoned land.
Qianye took out the wooden box, put it on the table, and said, "Then, what if I take this as a reward?"
Wei Bainian's eyes flashed slightly, then he laughed and said, "You must also know that Young Master Qiyang actually promised me a lot of conditions."
At this time, Wei Bainian could see that Qianye's behavior when holding things was a bit nervous and unnatural, and his words were very jerky. It was obviously the first time he had done such a thing. However, he did not criticize him, and just held the wooden box in his hand and played with it.
He was not in a hurry to open it and looked at Qianye with interest.
Qianye answered very calmly, "Potian didn't tell me the details, but he did say that he offered you good conditions, but you didn't agree."
"Then I'm curious, what did the young master bring me?" Wei Bainian smiled and untied the jade buckle that sealed the box. As soon as the lid of the box was pushed open, a corner of a smaller and more delicate wooden box was revealed inside.
From this angle, you can see a gold stamp on the top of the box inside.
As soon as Wei Bainian's eyes touched the seal, his expression suddenly changed, his chest rose and fell sharply, and his hand that was holding the wooden box casually trembled obviously, so he had to close the lid of the box and put it back on the table.
He looked up at Qianye, revealed a wry smile and said, "What a rude thing! It turns out to be such a thing!"
Wei Bainian took a deep breath and slowly opened the wooden box again. The lid of the box was completely opened, revealing a fine black lacquer box the size of a palm inside. There was an eye-catching and ancient seal on the box, every stroke and stroke
They all reveal the flavor of the vicissitudes of time.
Qianye barely recognized the ancient character '佶' on the seal because he had read the instruction manual for this item.
