Rong Guangjie's arms were wrapped with plaster bandages. He was sitting on a chair and looking at the dining table in a daze.
The dining table was filled with delicacies, but he could not move his hands and had to be fed to him.
Master Qin said that his two hands were saved, but it was no longer possible to learn Master Qin's unique skill "Ghost Hands". He was lucky to be able to continue practicing martial arts.
A middle-aged woman held a bowl, picked up vegetables with chopsticks, and put them into his mouth.
He opened his mouth numbly, took a bite, and spat it out.
The woman asked in a panic: "Ah, is it permed?"
Rong Guangjie suddenly kicked the table over and roared: "Get out! Get out of here!"
The woman was so frightened that she dropped her dishes and ran out.
Rong Guangjie, however, was not relieved. He stood up and frantically stepped on the vegetables on the ground, as if they were meat that fell from his enemy.
"stop!"
Pan Yunlong came in from outside the door and shouted.
"Stop?" Rong Guangjie said with a crazy laugh, "Do you think I still have hands? I don't have hands, so why should I stop?"
"Guangjie, don't do this." Pan Yunlong said, "Master said your hand will be fine in a few days."
"It's okay? How could it be okay! If I can't practice Ghost Hands, what's the use of my hands?" Rong Guangjie shouted hoarsely, "I don't understand why my godfather was so polite to the man named Li and sent him an invitation.
Is he attending the birthday party?"
"Master naturally has Master's considerations." Pan Yunlong said.
"Elder brother!" Rong Guangjie said angrily, "You even had your throat cut by that kid and almost died! Don't you hate them?"
Pan Yunlong was silent for a while and said: "What if I hate you? If he can cut my throat once, he can cut me a second time."
Rong Guangjie was speechless for a while, and finally said angrily for a long time: "I can't swallow this breath!"
"You have to swallow if you can't." Pan Yunlong's eyes were like daggers, but he suddenly softened, "Master loves you, and he will definitely vent his anger on your behalf. However, the person named Li has an unusual background. You must be patient and don't ruin Master's plan.
."
…
There were bodyguards standing just outside the entrance and courtyard of the courtyard where they were. However, judging from their clothes and positions, these bodyguards clearly belonged to three different camps.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room of the north room were two old men and one young man.
Sitting on the main seat in the middle is none other than Master Qin Shuyi, Master Qin.
Sitting on the guest seats on both sides were Wang Baichuan, the head of the Wang family in the capital, and Chu Zhe, the young head of the Chu family in the capital.
At this time, Chu Zhe said: "Humph, that family is really not a thing! They were the ones who shouted the loudest at the party. Now that the person named Li is here, they are the first ones to defect."
Qin Shuyi held the teacup, took a sip, and said: "After all, the Li family was the number one family back then..."
He spoke very slowly, and as he spoke, he glanced at Wang Baichuan from the corner of his eye.
Wang Baichuan sat there, like an old monk in meditation, with no expression on his face.
"...Twenty years is neither short nor long." Qin Shuyi put down the tea cup and continued, "The Li family's power is still there! Mr. Wang, what do you think?"
Wang Baichuan smiled slightly: "The residual power is still there, so it is the residual power after all."
"Hahaha," Qin Shuyi laughed, "As expected of the Wang family! Compared to the head of the Wang family, other families are far behind in terms of vision and courage!"
Chu Zhe was dissatisfied, but he just frowned slightly and didn't feel comfortable saying anything in person.
The changes in his expression were all in Qin Shuyi's eyes.
Qin Shuyi smiled and said, "That family will leave him alone. What do the Xiao family think? Young Master Chu, you are familiar with Master Xiao. Have you heard any news?"
Chu Zhe said: "Xiao Yan told me that the head of the Xiao family told them not to mess with Li Muchen. But Xiao Yan was very unconvinced by this. He told me that Li Muchen did not fall into his hands. If he did,
In his hands, I will abolish his martial arts and never let him become arrogant in the capital!"
Qin Shuyi smiled slightly: "Xiao Wudi's descendants are naturally much better than my apprentices."
Chu Zhe also knew that he had made a mistake and made it sound as if the Qin disciples were weak, so he explained: "Xiao Yan is also young and frivolous."
Qin Shuyi said: "Don't be frivolous and waste your youth!"
Chu Zhe said: "The Xiao family is cautious, but they probably won't stand with someone named Li."
"The Xiao family is the Xiao family. Does it have anything to do with me whether he and the person named Li stand together?" Qin Shuyi said with a smile.
"Master Qin!" Chu Zhe looked a little impatient, "As soon as Li came to the capital, he wanted to use you to establish his authority. Before coming, my dad said that Master Qin is highly respected and is the face of our capital. We must have this face.
To protect you. If someone named Li attacks you, he is slapping us in the face. Mr. Qin, don’t worry, as long as you go to war with the Li family, our Chu family will definitely be on your side."
Qin Shuyi waved his hand quickly: "Young Master Chu, you are kidding me. I am just a bad old man who does antique appraisal. How can I have the ability to start a war? If my apprentice is beaten, I can only blame them for their poor academic skills."
Chu Zhe thought Qin Shuyi was going to give up, so he became very anxious and said, "Master Qin, are you really going to let it go? If you have any concerns, you can tell us. If you need any support, just ask us."
Qin Shuyi said nothing. He picked up the tea cup again and gently used the lid to skim off the foam.
The more unhurried he was, the more anxious Chu Zhe became.
Wang Baichuan secretly laughed in his heart. This boy from the Chu family was too angry. Qin Shuyi was clearly trying to find out their true and false intentions. Chu Zhe was so anxious that he exposed the Chu family's secrets. It seemed that they were very afraid.
The Li family is rising.
Wang Baichuan calculated in his mind, which family is now on the side of the Li family, the Xiao family's attitude is unclear, and the Chu family is on the opposite side of the Li family. Coupled with Master Qin, it seems that the anti-Li family is still very powerful at present.
Now the attitude of the Wang family is very critical. The Wang family is originally the number one in the capital. If the Wang family and the Li family form an alliance, the situation will be very unfavorable for the Qin and Chu families.
This was also the purpose why Qin Shuyi invited him here today.
Wang Baichuan remained motionless. At this time, the less he could express his position. Only by not expressing his position could he remain invincible and have more opportunities to negotiate profitably.
Qin Shuyi also noticed it, smiled slightly, and said to Chu Zhe: "I accept Master Chu's kindness. The Qin Clan will handle the matter on its own, so don't worry about it."
Chu Zhe was very disappointed, and later became a little angry, but he was a junior and could not have an attack, so he could only leave angrily.
After Wang Baichuan and Chu Zhe left, the servants came to clear away the tea sets, and Sun Changhai and Pan Yunlong walked in.
Pan Yunlong asked: "Master, why didn't you agree to Master Chu just now?"
Sun Changhai smiled and said: "Master Qin can't show weakness! If Wang Baichuan doesn't express his position, it's useless for us to join forces with the Chu family. The more confident Master Qin is, the more likely they are to stand on the same front as us. The more confident Master Qin is, the more likely they are to stand on the same front as us."
The more you ask for something from them, the more likely they are to turn against you. Yunlong, you have to know that these wealthy families only care about business, and they will fall out faster than turning over a book."
Qin Shuyi laughed: "He who knows me is Changhai."
"But Chu Zhe may not understand your intention." Pan Yunlong said.
"He doesn't understand, but Chu Zhenqing will always understand." Qin Shuyi said.
Sun Changhai suddenly said: "Master Qin, I have found someone who may be useful to us."
"Oh, who?" Qin Shuyi was curious. Sun Changhai had always been steady and would not recommend useless people casually.
Sun Changhai went out and quickly brought someone in.
This man was in his fifties and looked very capable. He did not avoid Qin Shuyi's gaze and bowed: "Master Qin, my name is Luo Mingsha. I once worked as a housekeeper for the Lin family in Hecheng for several years. I would like to ask Master Qin to take him in and give me a reward."
