A moment later, Xiao Qingwan walked in holding a guard's long knife.
Qin Mingchao waved his hand at Xiao Qingwan and said:
"Wan'er, you go out first."
Xiao Qingwan glanced at Qin Ming worriedly, and when he nodded, she left the front hall.
Qin Ming held the knife in one hand and walked step by step to Changsun Huan.
Then he heard a cry and Qin Ming pulled out his long knife.
Then, in Changsun Huan's horrified eyes, Qin Ming quickly slashed Changsun Huan's arm three times.
The wound was not deep, just a little blood oozing out.
Qin Ming sheathed his sword, threw it aside, picked up the confused Changsun Huan, and said:
"I suffered three deep wounds the day before yesterday. Today I returned three wounds to you. Let's clear up both sides."
After finishing speaking, Qin Mingchao looked at Changsun Wuji who looked astonished and cupped his hands and said:
"Mr. Qi, I'm brave enough to call you my eldest grandson uncle. My nephew has an unkind request. I hope my uncle can agree to it."
Changsun Wuji took a deep look at Qin Ming and said;
"My dear nephew, please speak."
Qin Ming glanced at Changsun Huan and Changsun Chong, then saluted Changsun Wuji and said:
"As the saying goes, it is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. The eldest grandson is right. The second young master is still young after all, so my nephew would like to plead with the second young master. I hope you can give the second young master a chance to change his ways and don't expel him. Leave the family."
Changsun Huan walked around the gate of hell, and just when he came to his senses, he heard Qin Ming's words, so he looked at Qin Ming with a complicated expression.
Changsun Wuji thought,
I still underestimate you. I didn’t expect you to be so scheming at such a young age.
Although he thought so in his heart, Changsun Wuji looked moved on his face. He helped Qin Ming up, held his hand and said:
"My dear nephew, you are truly a kind and righteous gentleman. I would like to thank you here. Don't worry, I will educate him well when you go back and I will not let him cause trouble to you again."
Qin Ming nodded when he heard this, and then he said to Changsun Wuji:
"That's very good. Then I will ask my servants to come over and treat the injury on the second young master's arm?"
Changsun Wuji shook his head when he heard this and said:
"It's just a minor injury, so I won't bother my nephew. I still have some things to arrange at my house, so I won't disturb my nephew's recuperation. I will take them back now."
Qin Ming didn't try to stay after hearing this.
After a while
At the gate of Qin Mansion, Xiao Qingwan looked at the carriage going away and asked doubtfully:
"Sir, you are too kind. If you continue like this, you will suffer."
Qin Ming smiled and rubbed Xiao Qingwan's head when he heard this and said:
"Don't worry, sir, I won't do business at a loss."
Seeing that Qin Ming's expression didn't seem to be fake, Xiao Qingwan nodded.
After Qin Ming returned to the bedroom.
Xiao Changxi walked in and asked worriedly:
"Sir, I just heard Wan'er say that Duke Qi's second son is the mastermind behind the plot against you?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming waved to Xiao Changxi and said:
"Come, Xi'er, sit here."
After hearing this, Xiao Changxi walked to Qin Ming's bed and sat down.
Qin Ming took Xiao Changxi into his arms and said with a smile:
"He is not the mastermind behind this, but speaking of it, we have to thank this second young master. If it hadn't been for meeting him, maybe we wouldn't be together."
Xiao Changxi's pretty face immediately turned red when she heard this, and she instantly remembered her first time with Qin Ming that night at the West Market Inn.
Qin Ming looked at Xiao Changxi's red ears and moved his index finger instantly. He reached out and touched Xiao Changxi's pretty face, took off the veil and kissed her.
The other hand reached into Xiao Changxi's clothes dishonestly.
After a long time.
Xiao Changxi stretched out her hand to hold Qin Ming's right hand that was causing trouble on her chest, and asked while breathing heavily:
"Sir, you haven't said yet, who is the person behind the scenes?"
When Qin Ming saw Xiao Changxi asking about business, he temporarily stopped what he was doing.
He sneered and said:
"The legitimate son of the Changsun family, Changsun Chong."
After Xiao Changxi heard this, she thought about what Wan'er had described to her.
She patted Qin Ming and said:
"Sir, you are so evil."
When Qin Ming heard this, he smiled and squeezed the softness in his hand and asked:
"Is this what you're talking about?"
Xiao Changxi was attacked, biting her red lips and whispered:
"Sir, you are still injured."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
........
A carriage outside Qinjiazhuang, surrounded by several followers, drove quickly in the direction of Chang'an.
Changsun Wuji tapped the armrest of his seat while carefully observing Changsun Huan's expression.
After a long time, Changsun Wuji broke the silence in the carriage first. He stared at Changsun Huan and said:
"Huan'er, are you complaining about your father?"
Changsun Huan knelt down on the ground after hearing this. He buried his head and said in a deep voice:
"My child did complain about my father last night. Today, when Qin Ming walked towards my father with a knife, my child was indeed very scared."
"But the child came with his father this morning, and he is already prepared to sacrifice for the family, his father, and his brother."
"What's more, the child's life was given by his father. Over the years, the child has lived a life of fine clothing and food under the protection of the eldest grandson's family.
Therefore, no matter now or in the future, as long as the family needs it, the child can dedicate his life for his father, brother and family at any time. The interests of the eldest grandson's family are above all else. "
After hearing this, Changsun Wuji looked at his second son with a pleased expression.
"Okay, you said very well that the interests of the eldest grandson's family are above all else. When I return home, my father will write this sentence himself and hang it in the family's ancestral hall so that everyone in the family will remember you. That’s what I said.”
Changsun Huan lowered his head when he heard this, burying his hateful expression deep in the bottom of the carriage.
"Thank you, Father. I just expressed my father's usual teachings. At most, I just made a summary. I don't dare to take credit."
Changsun Wuji was overjoyed when he heard this. He stood up, helped Changsun Huan up, patted his shoulder and said:
"Okay, okay, this is the good son of my eldest grandson."
Chang Sun Huan showed a shy smile and said:
"Thank you, Father, for the compliment."
Changsun Wuji nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Changsun Chong:
"Chong'er, you have to thank your second brother for what happened this time."
Upon hearing this, Changsun Chong glanced at Changsun Huan with a complicated expression. He cupped his hands towards Changsun Huan and said:
"Thank you very much, second brother, for what happened this time."
Changsun Huan quickly avoided Changsun Chong's salute. He bowed respectfully and said:
"Brother, it doesn't have to be like this. You are the eldest son of the family and the future of the family. I am very happy that I can help my eldest brother. Please don't say that again in the future."
Changsun Chong was deeply moved when he heard this. He reached out and patted Changsun Huan on the shoulder and said emotionally:
"Brothers."
Changsun Wuji stroked his long beard, looked at the two sons in front of him and nodded with a smile.
