…
After a few days.
Liu's main residence.
Recently, it has been like a hellish nightmare for Mrs. Liu, with all kinds of bad things happening one after another.
Now inside the Liu family, people are also panicking.
All major industries are shrunk. Whether it is the middle-level managers or the bottom-level helpers and tenant farmers, the morale is very low, and even the daily basic work is not completed to a high degree.
It's no wonder that the outside world is now spreading more and more calls for the rise of the Wang family and the imminent collapse of the Liu Zhao family.
However, the Liu and Zhao clans seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, without any action or counterattack, as if they had already acquiesced to this situation.
But only the real core members of the Liu and Zhao clan know what the Liu and Zhao clan's real plans are.
A remote courtyard slowly opened.
Among them came a middle-aged man dressed plainly. He had a strong physique, walked like a dragon and a tiger, and his eyes were embarrassing and exuded a strong spirit.
He is Liu Shenghao, the successor of the Lingtai Realm whom the Liu family has carefully cultivated for decades.
Patriarch Liu Shengye, who was already waiting here, had a happy expression on his face, and he cupped his hands and said, "Brother is leaving the customs at this time, is it possible that he is sure of breaking through the customs? If the polishing is not smooth enough, why not wait a little longer, our Liu family can still afford it."
"Shengye, you have worked hard for everything." Liu Shenghao's eyes are full of strong self-confidence, "after decades of sharpening my sword, I have great confidence to be promoted to the spirit platform. Take the heavenly spirit pill and the auxiliary spirit pill , Today is the day when I, Liu Shenghao, attained the Lingtai Realm."
"Okay, okay." The head of the family, Liu Shengye, was a little excited as if he was crying. The life of the Liu family recently is too difficult. Not only the civilians in the territory under the jurisdiction flocked to Wang's Zhuwei Lake project to work.
Even some well-known wealthy households did not hesitate to sell the family property accumulated by their ancestors for generations, and went to the Wang family to buy some off-plan properties in Zhuwei Haoyuan, even if there was any loss in it, they would not hesitate.
A powerful public opinion war, under the propaganda war. Everyone regards the Liu family and the Zhao family as scourges, and they are afraid that they will not be able to avoid them.
In this regard, Liu Shi and Zhao Shi were completely powerless to fight back.
"As long as my brother becomes Lingtai Realm." Liu Shengye sneered excitedly, "Our Lingtai Realm powerhouses wait for the right time and quietly behead that hateful Wang Shouzhe. All unfavorable situations will be completely reversed."
In the eyes of the Liu and Zhao families, Wang Shouzhe has replaced Wang Longyan as the number one enemy.
As long as Wang Shouzhe is eradicated, the so-called rise of the Wang family will be a tower in the sky without foundation, and it will surely collapse.
Now all those who betrayed the Liu and Zhao clans will eventually be liquidated.
Liu Shengye led Liu Shenghao all the way to the owner's yard. He said with a smile: "The Tianling Pill is hidden in the secret room of my bedroom. Except for the ancestors, Yonghao and other close relatives, no one knows the whereabouts of this thing. I I'll take it with my brother~"
He entered the bedroom, touched the mechanism, and a wall slowly opened. He walked into the secret room, took out a brocade box from the dark cabinet, handed it to Liu Shenghao and said, "Brother, the hope of the family, everything is left to you."
"Don't worry, Shengye." Liu Shenghao was slightly excited, took the long-awaited brocade box, opened it, and there were indeed several jade bottles in it.
He opened one of the jade bottles, and just when he was about to sniff the elixir of heaven, his face suddenly changed: "This, what is this?" He poured it out and found it was a flour ball.
"Click!"
Liu Shenghao secretly thought that something was wrong, and hastily opened the bottle of auxiliary panacea again. As expected, all of them were replaced with flour balls. He growled, "Shengye, what's going on?"
Liu Shengye had never been so flustered in his whole life.
He was sweating profusely and trembling all over: "Impossible, impossible! There are very few people who know this secret room. Could it be that it is Yonghao? Come, call Yonghao."
Not for a moment.
Kneeling in the yard, Liu Yonghao had already been beaten so badly that he vomited blood and cried miserably, "Father, I didn't take it, I really didn't take it."
"That's right, I remembered. My fifth brother Yongzhou invited me to drink flowers, no, I drank wine. I drank too much that day, so I don't know what I said. Could it be..."
"Yongzhou?" Liu Shengye looked blank, "Yongzhou is very good, what do you want Tianling Pill for? No, I haven't seen Yongzhou for some days."
"Brother Yongzhou said that he will break through the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm recently and strive for the rise of the family, so he went to retreat."
Such a pass involved.
Mrs. Liu found out that Liu Yongzhou had disappeared. What kind of retreat is purely a cover-up.
Until now, the Liu family didn't know that Liu Yongzhou had a problem. If he had a problem, it might have something to do with that Zhong family, Zhong Luoxian.
The members of the Liu family rushed all the way to the "Xia Garden", only to find that the door of the Xia Garden was closed, and the building was already empty, and Zhong Luoxian did not know where to go.
In Liu's main house.
A group of elders, even the patriarch Liu Zhide gathered together.
"Could it be that Yongzhou was bewitched by Zhong Luoxian, stole the Tianling Pill, etc., betrayed his family and went to the Zhong family?"
"Hey, it's hard to guard against house thieves by day and night. My nephew in Yongzhou is confused!"
"Even if the Zhong family is a heavenly and human family, they can't do such despicable things, right? I'll go to the capital of Changning Weicheng to sue them, and let them hand over that traitor Liu Yongzhou."
"The Zhong family is very powerful, and it is also the family of heaven and man of Baidaowei. How could they talk to us?"
Just when everyone said something to each other, trying to save the situation.
A family member hurried back to report: "My subordinate was ordered to go to Baidaowei to inquire, and I came back to report. After my subordinates worked hard, I finally found out. It turns out that there is no Luoxian in the Zhong family's daughter or Zhimai. This person. Patriarch, we have to be careful, this may be a scam."
It was not easy for him to go to Baidaowei to inquire about this news. Many families are very good at protecting their children. That famous general didn't know that something serious happened in his family.
"what!?"
Liu Shengye's face was pale, and blood was spurted from his mouth.
If Zhong Luoxian is really the daughter of the Zhong family, then there is still a glimmer of hope for getting the Tianling Pill back.
now…
All the elders of the Liu family were mourning and panicking.
What to do next, what to do next
Under such a huge blow.
Even Liu Zhide, the patriarch of Zhide, lost his footing because of his stature flickering.
…
Just when the Liu family was in mourning.
Changningwei, the majestic city wall is towering and majestic.
An unremarkable carriage slowly drove into Changning Weizhong after paying a little entry tax.
Several people were sitting in the carriage.
One of the girls with a baby face couldn't restrain her curiosity. He secretly lifted a corner of the car curtain and looked outside.
This girl is naturally Wang Lici, the eighth generation eldest daughter of the Wang family.
A girl's heart is inherently curious and lively. Since she was a child, the chances of entering the city were few and far between.
Naturally, Wang Shouzhe would not criticize Wang Lici for this matter, he continued to rest his eyes with his eyes closed, looking like an old monk in meditation.
Sitting opposite Wang Shouzhe was Longyan Patriarch who was dressed in plain white. She also had her eyes closed and was in a semi-trance state.
But her spiritual consciousness is always hanging outside the carriage car, always on guard against adverse situations. Shouzhe is so crucial to the future of the Wang family that there is absolutely no room for loss.
"Old Ancestor, relax, you are too tired to be vigilant all the time." Wang Shouzhe said calmly, "The Liu and Zhao clans certainly hate me to the bone, but the chances of attacking me in public are too low."
Having said that, Wang Shouzhe has recently been able to not go out without going out. Even if he went out like now, he would have the audacity to ask the ancestor Longyan to accompany him to protect him.
Yes, he was terrified of death.
The others are not afraid, but they are afraid that the ancestors of Liu and Zhao's two clans will suddenly lose their minds when they get old, and they will do some insane activities that harm others and benefit themselves.
As the saying goes, predicting the enemy is lenient, Wang Shouzhe is willing to think about the enemy from the worst angle.
In the past, it was the Liu and Zhao clans who were afraid of the Wang clan's rebellion, and would die with them. But the current situation has been completely reversed. Wang Shouzhe is worried that the other party's forehead will be pinched and he will lose his mind.
"Hmm~" After entering the city, Patriarch Longyan was able to relax a bit.
No matter how crazy the ancestors of Liu and Zhao's two clans were, they would not dare to attack the patriarchs of other families in the city.
What's more, they went out this time, whether it was the route or other aspects, they were very concealed.
Moreover, everyone also simply put on some makeup, which was done by the general Wang Mei herself. With the help of her wonderful hand, although the appearance of everyone has not changed much, if they are not familiar people, they will not be able to recognize them for a while.
Especially Patriarch Longyan, whose white hair was dyed black by her, and the blue silk was scattered on her fragrant shoulders like a waterfall. With a plain white and veil, she looked like a fairy who did not eat fireworks.
"Fourth Uncle and Fourth Uncle." Wang Lici pursed his lips and said greedily, "There are roast ducks over there, why don't you buy a few to pad your stomach."
It's been a long time since the waterway turned to land, and she was already very hungry.
What's more, she has already made preparations in advance for entering the city today. If you want to talk about her preparations, of course... everyone knows, hehe~
"Lici, those who walk a hundred steps are half ninety. Could it be that you are going to collapse at the last moment?" Wang Shouzhe said with a half-smile, "Baiweiju is the top three restaurants in Changningwei."
"Gudu." Wang Lici swallowed heavily, strengthened his faith, slammed down the curtain, and then cuddled up to Wang Shouzhe and acted coquettishly, "Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle, why don't we do things after dinner first? "
Right now.
The voice of Wang Yong who was driving came in: "Master, our Wang's fish stall is not far ahead, do you want to take a look around?"
Wang Lici's eyes burst into flames, and he had the intention to kill someone.
Is this to sincerely oppose Miss Lici
Fortunately, Wang Shouzhe was also afraid that she would suffer from hunger, so he immediately asked Wang Yong to go directly to Baiweiju.
"Fourth Uncle still has the strength." Wang Lici regained his energy in an instant.
Baiweiju.
The carriage was parked in the backyard.
Under the guidance of the attendants, Wang Shouzhe and the other three entered a luxurious private room in a low-key manner.
"Be good, fourth uncle is really proud." Wang Lici smiled sweeter than honey, I heard that the minimum consumption of the private room in Baiweiju is not low.
Unexpectedly.
In the luxury box, there was already a middle-aged fat man waiting in it.
After gesturing for his attendants to leave, he blushed and smiled at Wang Shouzhe, cupping his hands and saying, "Brother Shouzhe, long time no see. I heard that your Wang family has been doing well recently. Hey, why are you dressed like this? I almost didn't recognize it."
"Brother Qian." Wang Shouzhe returned the courtesy with a smile, "Isn't it thanks to my elder brother's care that our Wang family is where we are today. It's just that Shouzhe has made too many enemies recently, so safety is the priority when we go out and walk."
This middle-aged fat man was naturally Wang Shouzhe's ally Qian Xuean. No, right now, to be precise, he is the deputy shopkeeper Qian.
"Shou Zhe also congratulates my brother for being promoted to the shopkeeper and taking charge of one side."
Wang Shouzhe's visit this time was naturally invited by Qian Xuean's letter. Although there were some twists and turns in his affairs, he still achieved his goal in the end.
Not only with the support of the family, he was successfully promoted to Lingtai Realm, but also won the opportunity to come to Changningwei to take charge of one side. However, Wang Shouzhe couldn't see the aura of a strong person in the Lingtai realm from him.
"Deputy shopkeeper, deputy shopkeeper, you have to pass this test before you can be promoted to shopkeeper." Qian Xue'an looked friendly and made money, and the more he smiled, the happier he was, "You and I are brothers in life and death, so there is no need to talk about lies. These two family members are…”
"This is my eldest niece, Wang Lici." Wang Shouzhe introduced with a smile, "Come with me to the city to open your eyes."
"It turned out to be the eldest niece, brother Shouzhe's niece, and Qian's niece." Qian Xuean took out a twenty thousand gold ticket, "Use it for the eldest niece to buy food."
"Don't..." Wang Shouzhe stopped and said, "Brother Qian has just been promoted to the Lingtai Realm, and he has bothered to find a job as a shopkeeper. He must not have enough money."
"Shou Zhe knows me, but I can still afford this small red envelope." Qian Xuean said with a smile, "Besides, I am a fat job."
He really took Wang Shouzhe as his life and death brother, and he didn't shy away from speaking at all.
"Then Lici, please thank Uncle Qian." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, he is a strong ally, and the future will be long.
Afterwards, Qian Xue'an took out another 20 thousand gold, and said to Longyan Patriarch with a smile: "This must be your sister, Luo Yi, right? She wears a veil when she is approaching the wedding, and it is inconvenient to show up? Miss Luo Yi is indeed one of the people." The young phoenix has an extraordinary temperament. A small meaning is not a respect."
Wang Shouzhe broke into a cold sweat.
He knew that Patriarch Longyan had always had a tough temper, and hated flattery the most. Don't piss off her old man, it's not good to draw a sword.
Just when he was about to speak, Patriarch Longyan stretched out his jaded hand, took the twenty thousand gold tickets, and said flatly, "Thank you."
What's happening here
Wang Shouzhe was a little dazed. The ancestor actually pretended to be a junior to get a red envelope as a meeting gift
Afterwards, Qian Xuean sat down with Wang Shouzhe on his arm: "Brother Shouzhe, thanks to you, Qian is here today. You must have a good drink today."
"Brother Qian, Shouzhe is bringing his family with him, so let me invite you." When Wang Shouzhe thought of Wang Lici, he became a little uneasy.
"Brother, what are you talking about? Your family members are naturally Qian's family members."
"No, no, my niece is quite edible..."
"Haha~ Brother, are you afraid that she will eat me poorly?" Qian Xue'an laughed so hard that he said to Wang Lici proudly, "My niece Lici, you can eat whatever you want, and you can eat as much as you like. There is no limit to what you can eat today. !"
