Xiahou Mingyi nodded: "Since Mr. Yan has said so, I will say it bluntly. The Yan family wants me, Xiahou Mingyi, because they think highly of my Xiahou family. I shouldn't refuse, but this matter is too dangerous."
, maybe our Xiahou family will become victims of the Yan family’s fight in the capital, so I have to be cautious."
"Don't worry, Head of the Xiahou Family, your Xiahou Family's help to the Yan Family is all in the dark and will never be shown in the open. Other families in the capital will not be so petty as to take action against you. As long as the Xiahou Family and us
The Yan family has reached an alliance, and this fight can benefit the Yan family. We, the Yan family, should reciprocate and help your Xiahou family become the largest wealthy family in Jinling. The so-called four major families in Jinling will be a thing of the past."
Xiahou Mingyi smiled slightly. This condition was what he had said before when he had a phone conversation with the head of the Yan family.
After pondering for a moment, Xiahou Mingyi said: "I can agree, but I still need Mr. Yan to show his sincerity."
Yan Gong smiled slightly: "The head of the Xiahou family said 'sincerity', but what about helping your Xiahou family get revenge?"
Xiahou Mingyi's heart trembled, and he nodded and said: "Young Master Yan is extremely intelligent, and this is exactly what happened! That Qin Changsheng from Jiangzhou killed my brother and injured my flesh and blood. Until now, I dare not let my old father know about this.
, I’m afraid that his old man won’t be able to bear this blow. For my Xiahou family, this hatred is as high as the sky and as deep as the sea!”
Yan Gong smiled slightly and said, "Does the Xiahou family head know who Qin Changsheng is?"
"I have found his information. He is an ordinary person. He has never known who his father is since he was a child. He has been living with his mother for many years. But three years ago, his mother was hit by a car and died. After going to prison, he encountered some adventures.
After he was released from prison, he suddenly seemed like a different person, with excellent medical skills and strong martial arts, at least he had the status of a great master."
Yan Gong smiled and said: "Then do you know who Qin Changsheng's father is?"
Xiahou Mingyi was startled for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"Back then, Qin Changsheng's mother was also a talented woman. She was the top scorer in Jiangzhou's college entrance examination and was admitted to Beijing University. Later, she got pregnant while she was in school and was expelled from the school. She returned to Jiangzhou with her child."
"As far as I know, he is a flesh and blood of the Qin family in the capital..."
"Qin family? Which Qin family?" Xiahou Mingyi was thoughtful, but not sure.
"There are three levels of real wealthy families in the capital, the top class, the first class, and the second class. There is only one family named Qin, and that is the top class wealthy Qin family, which is one of the six major families alongside our Yan family."
After Yan Gong finished speaking, he picked up the refreshing Longjing tea on the table, took a sip, and praised: "Good tea."
"He is a bloodline of the Qin family!"
Although he was mentally prepared, Xiahou Mingyi was still shocked after receiving Yan Gong's confirmation.
The Qin family is one of the top wealthy families in the capital. Although it belongs to the same six top tiers as the Yan family, its background is even better than that of the Yan family and other families. That is to say, in recent years, the Qin family has been in decline.
, chose to lie dormant, but it is undeniable that the Qin family is deeply rooted, with big trees and luxuriant leaves.
Yan Gong said: "It's true that he has blood, but from the current point of view, he is just an illegitimate child."
Xiahou Mingyi asked: "Do the people in the Qin family know about the existence of Qin Changsheng, an illegitimate son?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he shook his head and said, "I am talking nonsense. Even Mr. Yan knows about it, how can the Qin family not know about it?"
Yan Gong smiled: "Don't tell me, not many people in the Qin family know about it."
"What's going on?" Xiahou Mingyi frowned, a little confused.
"The old man of the Qin family has been suppressing this matter. From the beginning to the end, few people knew about the illegitimate child."
Yan Gong said: "I happened to have a close friendship with a person in the Qin family who knew the news, so I found out about it."
Xiahou Mingyi was silent for a long time, and then asked quietly: "Master Yan told me this matter, did he want to persuade me not to seek revenge from Qin Changsheng, because he is a bloodline of the Qin family, and he might bring about the disaster of annihilation for me?
"
Yan Gong's face became solemn: "What did the Xiahou family master say? Is there any reason not to avenge a blood feud? Originally, I couldn't tell the outside world because the Qin family's illegitimate child is a top secret, but it is precisely because
Considering that our two families need to work together, I will tell the head of the Xiahou family such a confidential matter."
"The original intention of telling you this is to let you understand that revenge must be avenged, but we cannot kill people. Otherwise, if the Qin family holds them accountable, it will inevitably cause trouble."
Xiahou Mingyi nodded slowly, thought for a moment, and said: "I think it's okay to kill him. First, we don't know that he is the illegitimate son of the Qin family. Second, if the Qin family really wants to see him,
, how could they let their orphans and widowed mothers stay in Jiangzhou for so long without ever coming to see Qin Changsheng? This is enough to show that the Qin family does not want to recognize his illegitimate son at all. If we kill him, maybe it is what the Qin family wants.
thing."
Yan Gong shook his head and laughed: "Master Xiahou, if the matter was as simple as you think, I wouldn't have told you that Qin Changsheng was the illegitimate son of the Qin family."
Xiahou Mingyi took a deep breath and said, "Master Yan, please speak clearly!"
Yan Gong asked: "How much does the Xiahou family know about the current situation of the Qin family?"
"I heard that the old man of the Qin family is approaching his end. Qin Jinghui and Qin Jingtong, the backbone of the second generation, are likely to be the next heads of the Qin family. However, the eldest son Qin Jinghui has no intention of devoting himself to the family business and instead pursues an official career. Now he is
He is a high-ranking official in the border areas, but he and his wife have had less than one and a half children for many years. There are many rumors, but it is unknown whether they are true or not. As for the second son Qin Jingtong, he gradually came to power in the family, assisting the head of the Qin family and managing family affairs.
Everything is well organized, and Qin Jingtong has a son and a daughter, both of whom are well-educated in both civil and military affairs. They are also among the best among the younger generation in the capital..."
After a pause, Xiahou Mingyi stared at Yan Palace and said, "I heard that Mr. Yan also has a good impression of Qin Jingtong's daughter Qin Yuwei..."
"Qin Yuwei is one of the three golden flowers in the capital. She and I are childhood sweethearts. It is well known that I like her."
Yan Gong laughed and said, "What you said is quite accurate. It is basically true. It is the current situation of the Qin family. Then do you know whose illegitimate son Qin Changsheng is?"
Xia Houmingyi thought: "Judging from his age, could he be the illegitimate son of Qin Jinghui or Qin Jingtong, two strong figures in the Qin family?"
Yan Gong said: "Guess again, which one of them is it?"
Xiahou Mingyi pondered for a moment and said in confusion: "Qin Jinghui?"
"good."
Yan Gong said: "It is Qin Jinghui's illegitimate son. Speaking of it, he is now the eldest grandson of the Qin family! When Qin Jinghui was an official in the capital when he was young, he had an affair with a college student. This was not good for his career, so the old man of the Qin family strictly ordered them to break up.
He killed Qin Jinghui and that college student, and ordered Qin Jinghui to marry a woman he didn't love, forming a political marriage."
"However, Qin Jinghui has a stubborn temper. Although he has risen through the ranks over the years and has become a feudal official, he has never refused to have a son or a daughter with the wife he is marrying. He uses this matter to compete with the head of the Qin family to express his dissatisfaction."
"Qin Jinghui is now in a high and powerful position and will be the biggest backer of the Qin family in the next few decades. It is most suitable for him to be the next head of the family. However, as the head of the family, it would be a big taboo to have no heirs. He cannot be in power for a hundred years.
Finally, the power of the head of the family will be handed over to the second room..."
Speaking of this, Yan Gong stopped and stared at Xiahou Mingyi.
Xiahou Mingyi said: "So, Qin Changsheng, the illegitimate son, has become the key? If Qin Jinghui is made the head of the family, this illegitimate son will definitely be taken back by the Qin family in an upright manner?"
Yan Gong nodded and said: "This is exactly what the old man of the Qin family is struggling with now. On the one hand, he does not want to admit Qin Changsheng, an illegitimate son, but if he really wants to make Qin Jinghui the next head of the family, he must accept Qin Changsheng, an illegitimate son."
"But on the other hand, if the illegitimate son of the Qin family dies early, the old man of the Qin family will completely abandon the idea of making Qin Jinghui the next head of the family. At that time, in order to stabilize the family, establishing a second wife will be the first choice."
"The head of the Xiahou family is a sensible person. At this point, you should understand why I told you that Qin Changsheng is the illegitimate son of the Qin family, right?"
Xiahou Mingyi's eyes were bright and he said quickly: "You mean... to kill someone with a borrowed knife? Because if Qin Jingtong wants to inherit the position of the head of the family, then for him, Qin Changsheng will be a stumbling block in his way?"
