Before Su Qin could seek revenge on the Li family, the Li family father and son took the initiative to cause trouble for Su Qin.
Earlier, Mr. Li diverted misfortune and deliberately announced that Bai Lan had died at the hands of the Su family, escalating the hatred and conflict between the Su family and the Li Jiawen family, and then asked Bai Lan's senior brother, who is one of the top five masters on the Dragon Ranking, to come out to seek revenge on the Li family. .
The top five masters on the Dragon List are all the nuclear weapons of the same family. If he really wants to cause trouble for the Su family, the Su family really has to find a way to solve this problem, otherwise it will be a hidden danger sooner or later.
Before Mr. Li started to mess around, his son Li Chengfeng couldn't wait to give Su Qin a meeting gift. As for what kind of meeting gift, it seemed that he had already prepared it.
Su Qin didn't know that the Li family was once again taking action against him. He was really haunted.
In the alley of Xicheng District, there is the courtyard where Su Qin came to visit Su Hanlin last time. At this moment, Su Qin is waiting for Su Beiming in this antique courtyard. Who makes Su Beiming occupy a high position now? Su Qin is the eldest young master of the Su family. No matter what, she still had to wait for him. It had to be said that Su Beiming was really assertive.
Su Qin is not angry. He knows that Su Beiming has complaints against their family. As for what the complaints are, Su Qin still can't figure it out. The Su family in Lingnan feels that the position of patriarch is originally theirs, so they have always been at odds with Su Qin and the others. But The Qilusu family is at least on a good terms with Su Qin and his family, but Su Beiming is the only one who has some objections.
Before Su Beiming came, Su Qin was wandering around the courtyard leisurely. Although this courtyard was not very big, it was very beautifully decorated. It combined the different characteristics of southern gardens and northern courtyards, and added many new features. Modern elements make living here very comfortable. No wonder Su Hanlin stays here every time he comes to Kyoto.
The most important thing is that there is a collection of huanghuali and red sandalwood furniture and art. It is obvious that Su Hanlin likes these Chinese furniture, and young people should not be too cold about this style.
The other bodyguards were waiting outside. Apart from Qiyin and Shanyu, only Concubine Pei accompanied Su Qin. Su Qin sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room and admired the koi in the pool outside. The sunlight shining through the floor-to-ceiling window made Su Qin very comfortable. , some people feel comfortable.
Su Qin was basking in the sun and drinking tea, but Concubine Pei complained a little: "Master, Su Beiming's attitude is really too big. We have been waiting for an hour. I informed him in advance. I think he did this on purpose." Let's wait."
"Sister Pei, I don't blame you. I'm not in a hurry. Why are you anxious?" Su Qin understood what Concubine Pei meant and said in a gentle tone.
Concubine Pei chuckled and said, "The young master is as stable as a mountain. How can I have the young master's temperament?"
"Please stop flattering me." Su Qin said half-jokingly.
Concubine Pei is now more and more accustomed to the position of general manager of the Su family's old house, and has become accustomed to the way she gets along with Su Qin. This young master is still very approachable most of the time.
She teased: "How often does the young master go back to Beijing? Why don't I cherish the opportunity to flatter him more?"
A middle-aged woman like Concubine Pei who still retains her charm sometimes has a unique charm. There must be many men who covet her. I wonder how much it has cost to get to this position?
At this time, there was some noise at the entrance of the courtyard. Not long after, Su Beiming was seen walking into the courtyard. Following Su Beiming were his two secretaries and security guards.
After Su Beiming walked in, Su Qin stood up happily and said hello: "Uncle Beiming."
The secretary and the guard carefully looked at Concubine Pei and Qiyin Shanyu. Su Qin nodded to Concubine Pei and others and told them to go out and wait for him. Concubine Pei quietly left the living room with Qiyin and Shanyu, and went to the courtyard. Waiting inside, you can see what's going on inside the living room through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Su Beiming's face looked a little tired, and he said with a serious smile: "I just finished a meeting at the ministry, and I kept you, the young master, waiting for a long time."
After Su Beiming waved, the secretary and the security guard left the living room, leaving only a servant from the courtyard standing next to him serving tea and water.
Su Qin chuckled and said: "Uncle Beiming takes care of everything. State affairs are the most important, but you still have to pay attention to your health."
"Since we are sitting in this position, we should devote ourselves to death, otherwise there is no point in living. Not everyone is just fighting for power and profit." Su Beiming said thoughtfully. It was obvious that there was something in his words, but Su Qinneng Whichever level you hear, it's Su Qin's business.
What Su Qin heard was that he was beating himself up, and then he seemed to say that Su Beiming had no intention of fighting for power in the Su family.
If it were someone else, Su Qin might have said a few compliments, but not to Su Beiming. Su Qin said calmly: "Sometimes fighting for power is just a last resort. Besides, if you want to do more in this world, you have to stand higher. The further we go, the struggle for power and profit seems inevitable."
This was Su Qin's response. After hearing these words, Su Beiming was not very interested in Su Qin, but suddenly stared at Su Qin as if he had something in mind. Obviously, he did not expect that Su Qin would say such a thing.
In Su Beiming's eyes, Su Qin was just a twenty-year-old young man, and he seemed unwilling to talk to Su Qin about these big principles.
He changed the subject and simply asked: "Su Qin, how about studying at Chang'an University?"
"Majoring in finance, I have been exposed to it since childhood, so it is relatively easy." Su Qin said truthfully.
Su Beiming nodded and said: "That's true. You have been exposed to the Su family's affairs with your grandfather since you were a child. Naturally, it is easier than ordinary people to understand the profound book principles and you have more practical experience than them. Now we are just learning systematically, but we still need to be down-to-earth and not be complacent.”
Su Qin said in a deep voice: "Su Qin will keep Uncle Beiming's teachings in mind."
Su Beiming asked seemingly casually: "Do you have anything to do with me this time?"
Su Qin shook his head and said: "When I return to Beijing, I will come to visit Uncle Beiming as a courtesy. This is what a junior should do. There is nothing else to bother Uncle Beiming."
No matter what, Su Qin is just a junior, and he still has to be respectful in front of the elder Su Beiming. Although he is the eldest son of the Su family, Chen Beiming is also a high-ranking official in the border area.
Su Beiming said softly: "There is no need to be so particular. We are all a family. We don't need to see anyone outside. We won't need to in the future. If you really need anything, you can come to me."
Although Su Beiming said this, Su Qin just listened.
At this time, Su Beiming said again: "I met your uncle at a meeting some time ago, and I talked a few words about you with your uncle. At this stage, you should focus on your studies. Other things are not your concern."
Su Beiming's words hit Su Qin again. Su Beiming must know what Su Qin did. He just felt that Su Qin was too old and there were some things he shouldn't do at his age.
Su Qin shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Uncle Beiming, there are some things I don't do now. When I want to do it, it will be too late."
This is Su Qin's positive response. He also wants to hear the truth from Su Beiming, but Su Beiming may not tell it.
In fact, Su Qin was surprised to be able to talk to Su Beiming to this extent today. Of course, he was not the one who started the topic, but Su Beiming took the initiative to talk.
Su Beiming said neither lightly nor seriously: "Su Qin, as long as your grandfather is still alive, the Su family will not be in chaos."
Su Beiming's words have a profound meaning, and he seems to have made a statement to Su Qin, that is, as long as Grandpa Su Qin is alive, the Qilusu family will continue to support Grandpa Su, and will not have any ideas about the position of the patriarch as reported by the outside world.
But this is also true. Even if Grandpa Su Qin is alive, let alone the Qilu Su family, they will not dare to make mistakes. Even if the Lingnan Su family is dissatisfied, they will have to suppress it.
But what if Grandpa Su Qin suddenly disappears?
The first one is that Su Qin's grandfather died of illness. Although the probability of this is not very high at present, Su Qin knows that there is something wrong with his grandfather's health, but it is not yet determined whether it is serious or not, and the outside world does not know about it.
The second possibility is that enemies or traitors within the Su family will take action against Grandpa Su Qin. This probability is very high. Enemies of the Su family may take action at any time. Some traitors within the Su family cannot wait. For example, the Su family in Lingnan There is a high probability that this is the main reason why Grandpa Su Qin will not return to China for the time being.
He was not afraid that others would do something to him, he was just trying to buy more time for Su Qin.
So Su Qin didn't hide anything and said bluntly: "Uncle Beiming, what if my grandpa suddenly disappears?"
Su Beiming's expression changed slightly, he was silent for a moment and said, "Su Qin, what you said is a bit treasonous."
Su Qin said in a deep voice: "Uncle Beiming, I'm just saying it in case. It's not like you don't know the situation in our family. There are many enemies at home and abroad. I don't know how many people want to do something to my grandfather."
Su Qin had been very restrained and did not talk about the internal worries of the Su family.
Su Beiming avoided the serious matter and said lightly: "The Su family's mausoleum guardians are not just freeloaders. It's not that easy to take action against your grandfather. Besides, if they had the ability, they would have taken action long ago, so don't worry."
Su Qin finally understood. To put it bluntly, Su Beiming still didn't say anything, only what everyone understood.
If Grandpa Su Qin really died suddenly one day, how would the Qilusu family take sides? Su Beiming did not express his position, or maybe he was not qualified to express his position.
Su Qin chuckled. Su Beiming was still cunning and cunning. He seemed to have talked a lot, but in fact he didn't talk about anything. It would be better for Su Tiancheng to just stop talking about it.
Su Qin raised his wrist to check the time, stood up and said: "Uncle Beiming, it's getting late. I heard that you are going to inspect other places in the afternoon, so I won't disturb you."
Su Beiming did not try to persuade Su Qin to stay. He just said, "Then I won't send you off. You can go sit at home another day."
Su Qin smiled and nodded, then turned and walked out of the courtyard, and soon left with Concubine Pei and others.
Su Beiming sat in the living room and continued to drink tea. It was a rare opportunity to take a break from busy work to bask in the sun. He felt that he seemed to despise Su Qin a little. This kid seemed to have a very clear view of things. As for the things he was tossing about in the northwest, there was nothing he could do about it at the moment. No matter what, he wouldn't say much.
Anyway, the Qilusu family just wants to maintain the status quo for the time being. As long as Grandpa Su Qin does not die, they will indeed continue to support him. Of course, they will also express their different opinions when they should, otherwise the Su family will be in a stagnant water.
If Grandpa Su Qin really dies suddenly one day, they don't know how the Qilusu family will stand at that time, because they still don't know what will happen then.
Su Qin came back from Su Beiming's place without lunch. Even if Su Beiming stayed with him to eat, Su Qin might not agree. Such high-ranking people are sometimes too boring and must suppress their own humanity.
Concubine Pei asked the old house to arrange lunch, which was Sichuan and Hunan cuisine that Su Qin liked to eat. Even though Concubine Pei had avoided extravagance and waste, six dishes and one soup still made Su Qin feel that it was a bit too much. The most important thing was to eat alone. It's so boring, no matter how delicious the food is, it doesn't taste good.
If my sister comes back, maybe it will be more lively.
Now Su Qin is waiting to go to the East China Sea for the New Year. When her sister comes back, this year's New Year will definitely be more lively.
After eating, Su Qin called Ye Chuxia. After the call was connected, Su Qin asked, "Are you still at Sister Han's house?"
"No, I have already returned to my home. Sister Han's mood has stabilized. She deleted all Meng Bo's contact information, and also told her parents about their breakup, but she didn't say why they broke up. He Her parents even tried to persuade her not to break up." Ye Chuxia said truthfully.
Su Qin sighed and said: "It seems that Sister Han has made up her mind. This is actually good. It will save you more grievances in the future. After all, we have only been talking for half a year."
Ye Chuxia nodded and said, "Sister Han is more concerned about relationships. She probably really likes Meng Bo, otherwise she wouldn't be so sad."
"Time will heal everything. It won't take long for her to recover. When one day she meets the right man, all this will be just a smile." Su Qin said.
Ye Chuxia said softly: "Yes, just like when I met you, all the unpleasantness in the past will disappear."
Su Qin comforted him: "Fairy, don't think too much. Try to go out as little as possible these days. If you go out, tell the bodyguards I arranged in advance. Meng Bo will definitely not let it go."
"I know, uncle." Ye Chuxia said softly.
After hanging up the phone, Su Qin was about to go to the gym to start exercising. Concubine Pei said that Wang Lei and Li Zhen had come to the old house. Last time, he arranged to investigate the information about the male descendants of the Li family. Wang Lei and Li Zhen came over to tell her. He reports.
It has been two days since this matter happened. It stands to reason that Wang Lei and Li Zhen should have sorted it out. After all, the Su family has a dedicated person responsible for the Li family's intelligence.
Su Qin came to the living room outside. Wang Lei and Li Zhen had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Su Qin come in, they stood up to say hello. Su Qin waved for them to sit down.
Su Qin got straight to the point and asked, "How is your investigation going?"
Wang Lei and Li Zhen looked at each other, and finally he spoke: "Master, the information about the male members of the direct line of the Li family has been compiled. This is information, Master, you can look at it in detail."
After speaking, Wang Lei handed the information to Su Qin. Su Qin took it but did not open it. He said lightly: "Let's not waste time. Just tell me directly."
Li Zhen, as the second-in-command in intelligence for the Su family's mausoleum guard, said without hesitation: "Master, we are the direct male of the Li family based on the lineage of the old man of the Li family. The old man of the Li family is still alive today, although he has run out of oil. , but the Li family has been keeping him alive. The current patriarch of the Li family is Li Zhenzu, the eldest son of the Li family. Li Zhenzu has a son, Li Chengwei, and a daughter, Li Qin. Both sons and daughters are married. Mr. Li’s second son is called Li Zhentang , also known as Mr. Li by the outside world. Although Li Zhenzu is the head of the Li family, Li Zhentang has great influence in the Li family, almost on an equal footing with Li Zhenzu. This is all because of the Li family’s preference for Li Zhentang. Li Zhentang has two sons. The two daughters, the eldest son Li Chengxing and his two daughters are also married, and the younger son Li Chengfeng is not yet married, so the young master should be no stranger to him."
Su Qin still knew something about the situation of the Li family. He knew that although Li Zhenzu was the current patriarch of the Li family, he and his younger brother Li Zhentang were equals in the Li family. All this was because of Mr. Li's preference for his younger son.
Su Qin said in a deep voice: "Then tell me who we should attack?"
Wang Lei said thoughtfully: "Li Zhen and I have analyzed this matter. Li Zhenzu and Li Zhentang are definitely not within the scope of our consideration. Then the scope can only be Li Chengwei, Li Chengxing, and Li Chengfeng. Li Chengwei is the son of the patriarch Li Zhentang. If there is too much movement It will make the Li family resist fiercely, so I can only choose from brothers Li Chengxing and Li Chengfeng."
Li Zhen looked at Su Qin and said: "Master, you can look at the information and decide which of them is more suitable, and we will start taking action here."
Su Qin said with a smile: "I don't need to look at the information to know who is more suitable. Li Chengfeng is quite famous in Shangjing. People of the same age in Shangjing also call him Mr. Li. He is a backup to his father. This kid is a prostitute, gambler and drug addict." Which one doesn’t take advantage of me? So I have a better chance of attacking him. Besides, I still had some grudges with him last time, so let’s take it out on him this time.”
Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. She really wanted Su Qin to directly attack Li Zhenzu and Li Zhentang. It would be really difficult for them to handle it.
What he didn't expect was that Su Qin didn't even choose Li Chengwei and Li Chengxing, but chose Li Chengfeng, a playboy, so that it would be easier for them to attack. It seemed that their eldest son of the Su family was still very cautious.
Wang Lei and Li Zhen looked at each other again and said, "Then it's Li Chengfeng."
"I will arrange for someone to keep an eye on Li Chengfeng. The young master will just wait for news about us. Once there is a chance to take action, we will report to the young master." Li Zhen said respectfully.
Su Qin nodded silently and said, "Then you start taking action. I'm waiting for your news."
The matter has been decided. Wang Lei and Li Zhen stood up slowly and said, "Then we won't disturb the young master and let's go and arrange the action."
Su Qin asked Concubine Pei to send Wang Lei and Li Zhen away after a few words of advice.
But what he didn't know was that he chose to take action against Li Chengfeng, and Li Chengfeng was also planning to deal with him. They were really enemies, so this would be interesting.
At the same time, this is also a confrontation between the Su family's mausoleum guardians and the Li family's shadows in Shangjing. The final winner has not yet been revealed.
However, Li Chengfeng has already started taking action, and they happened to find Meng Bo, who had recently had a grudge against Su Qin...
