Things in the world can never keep up with the changes planned.
On this day, Xia Shao did not see Wu Qun. It's not that she went to Panjiayuan and Wu Quantum wasn't there, but that she didn't go there at all.
I don't know if it was God's will or a coincidence. After everyone finished eating, they were just about to leave for Panjiayuan when Xia Shao's cell phone rang.
The call was from Xu Tianyin, "Jiang Zhengqi has returned to Beijing."
Xia Shao was stunned. The Jiang family was currently in deep trouble. Jiang Shan was arrested for investigation, so naturally he could not contact Xiao Yi personally. Xia Shao had long speculated that someone else from the Jiang family would come to Xiao Yi to find a solution, and this person would most likely be Jiang Zhengqi, who was being groomed as the heir to the Jiang family. Although Jiang Zhengqi was in the local area, his every move had been watched early on.
Xia Shao originally thought that Xiao Yi and Jiang Shan had failed and the capital was in chaos. If they wanted to contact and meet, it would be time for Xiao Yi to go to where Jiang Zhengqi was. Xia Shao also told Xu Tianyin that if his people found any unusual traces, they would tell her immediately. She rushed over immediately. Unexpectedly, they were so bold that Jiang Zhengqi returned directly to the capital! Not only that, Xu Tianyin said on the phone that after Jiang Zhengqi came back, he didn't even go back to the Jiang family and went directly to a high-end club in the suburbs of Beijing.
Xia Shao immediately asked Xu Tianyin to tell Xu Tianyin the location of the clubhouse, turned around and walked to the window in the room, and looked over with open eyes. Jiang Zhengqi hadn't arrived yet, but there was already an old man waiting in the room Xu Tianyin reported to. The man was sitting in a wheelchair with his head half lowered. The hand holding the tea cup was as old as iron, and wrinkles were visible on half of his exposed face.
This man's face was very different from the Xiao Yi that Xia Shao knew, and he was in his fifties at least. If he hadn't heard from his master about the backlash of the Maoshan Sect's secret method of turtle breath, and if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes today, Xia Shao would never have thought that this person was Xiao Yi. She had long guessed that Xiao Yi was still alive, but today, she finally saw him with her own eyes. If this person wasn't Xiao Yi, that would be fine. If it was him, even Xia Shao would be shocked by his change.
A man who was originally in his early thirties and in the prime of life has actually become this old after not seeing him for half a year
Xia Shao didn't worry too much about whether this person was really Xiao Yi. She just glanced at the person and then squinted her eyes, "It's him, right, the spirit is still empty!"
Regardless of whether this person is Xiao Yi or not, his cultivation is worthy.
Xu Tianyin is in the military area, and he is not as free as Xia Shao these two days. If such a big thing happened while the Japanese mission was in Beijing, the superiors must investigate, especially where the recording came from. Jiang Shan is in the officialdom, how can he be a fuel-efficient lamp? He was determined to have someone to support him even if he died. During the period of arrest and interrogation, he bit himself to death and the place where he talked with the Japanese ambassador was at the Japanese residence. The Japanese were staying at the National Hotel, where security was the most stringent. If Jiang Shan really went there, all the security personnel responsible for the mission would be held accountable. As the commander-in-chief of this security mission, Xu Tianyin bears the brunt of the responsibility.
But since Xia Shao decided to use this strategy in the first place, he would certainly not endanger Xu Tianyin. The surveillance that night had been changed by Xu Tianyin in advance. The personnel at the security checkpoint that Jiang Shan passed on the way to the Japanese envoy's residence were not actually bribed, but had been tricked a long time ago, let alone a living person walking past them. In the past, even if a big living person walked up to them and stabbed them, they would not know.
Because they didn't know, these security personnel were filled with indignation when faced with Jiang Shan's confession. They all asked the organization to clear their names, and then someone asked for a polygraph test.
Of course nothing can be measured about things that are not known at all. As a result, Xu Tianyin was no longer scrutinized by the superiors. Firstly, because the security personnel who carried out the mission did not detect anything, it has been proven that Jiang Shan was lying. Secondly, Xu Tianyin has made great achievements and Mr. Xu is on top. Even though Xu Kangguo’s attitude towards this matter is one word, "Check!" But the person above obviously didn't want to offend Mr. Xu when he was about to leave office, so the matter calmed down.
Not only was Xu Tianyin fine, but Fang Yun also escaped scrutiny. It is said that she is a member of the Fang family, an upstart member of the Jiang family. When the Jiang family is facing widespread scrutiny, the Fang family is naturally not immune. But I don't know who was behind this. The sentence above said, "None of the others lied. Fang Yun alone could not have helped Jiang Shan enter the foreign guests' residence, which was guarded like iron barrels." This exempted her from suspicion.
The Fang family was relieved that Fang Yun was not implicated, but only Fang Yun knew that it was probably the Qin family's intention that she was fine. Xia Shao had promised her at the beginning that if she was willing to help, if something happened to the Jiang family in the future, the Fang family would not be too implicated. I think that although the Fang family is also under investigation these days, nothing has been found, which is what the Qin family meant.
These days, Xu Kangguo called Xia Shao back to the Xu family once. The old man had a lot of doubts about the sudden victory of the Qin faction, especially Jiang Shan wanted to bite Xu Tianyin, which made the old man's political sensitivity suddenly tense. I always feel that if this matter has nothing to do with my grandson, it must have something to do with a certain little fox. But the little fox returned home and pretended to be a fool, but couldn't ask anything. At the end, Xu Kangguo waved his hand and sighed, "Forget it, it seems I am getting old, alas!"
As a result, Xu Tianyin continued to work in the military region and secretly helped Xia Shao monitor Jiang Zhengqi's every move. Xia Shao spent a few days at school to relax, and it was not until today that she learned the news about Jiang Zhengqi.
This news came at the wrong time. Xia Shao had just learned that Wu Qunzi had come to the capital and was planning to see him. But this didn't make Xia Shao too entangled. She immediately made a decision, "I'll be there right away! When senior brother comes, drive slowly and don't arrive within two hours!"
Xia Shao originally wanted to prevent Xu Tianyin from coming, but for some reason, her heart had been pounding from the moment she received the call, always feeling that something was going to happen. But the other party was Xiao Yi, and Xu Tianyin couldn't trust her to go alone. He would definitely do it. Instead of asking him to rush over, it would be better for her to set a time for him and ask him to drive slowly. By the time he arrives, the matter will probably be over.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Shao turned around and saw a table full of people looking at her. Although everyone didn't know what happened, they knew from Xia Shao's tone on the phone that it must be something important. Only Yi Ni stood up and stared at Xia Shao closely, because she was the only one who understood what was going on.
But Xia Shao looked at her and Yuan Ze at first glance, "I have something to ask of you two. I'll go to Panjiayuan later and invite my friend here."
"why me?"
"why it's not me?"
Yi Ni and Liu Xianxian spoke at almost the same time, the former looked eager and the latter looked dissatisfied.
"That friend of mine is a descendant of the Guigu sect, and his dharma name is Wuxian. Go and invite him for me, and then come with him. I always feel that something will happen today, so I have to make arrangements in advance." Xia Shaoxin Zhi Yini had a grudge against Xiao Yi. When she heard the news about her enemy, she was more anxious than anyone else, so she made it clear to her. After saying that, she turned to look at Liu Xianxian, "Today is business. If you are more serious when you see him and promise not to talk nonsense, you can go together."
The reason why Xia Shao asked Yuanze to go was because Yuanze had a good upbringing and was always gentle and courteous to others. Liu Xianxian and Yi Ni, one is crazy and the other has a knife in their words. When they get there, there must be a normal person to avoid losing etiquette.
"Okay." Yuanze didn't ask anything. Xia Shao asked him to help, so he just nodded.
Yi Ni also nodded. She didn't expect that the expert turned out to be a descendant of the Guigu sect. Since Xia Shao asked her to invite reinforcements, she had no reason not to agree. She would definitely rush there with her people as soon as possible!
Xia Shao also arranged things for Zhou Mingxu and Miao Yan, and deliberately arranged them together. "You guys go to Huayuan for me to find Xiao Yezi and ask him to take people to this place." , Xia Shao gave the address to her friends, and when everyone nodded solemnly, she and everyone divided into three groups and acted separately.
Speaking of which, Xiao Yi really doesn't need to mobilize troops and people like this. But Xia Shao remembered that when she was in Japan, she got the news that Xiao Yi was surrounded by some Thai head-dropping masters. Xiao Yi was the only one who showed up today, and she felt uneasy and had to be on guard.
…
Suburbs of Beijing.
Few people in the capital know that there is a high-end club here. The club is located halfway up the mountain, hidden by trees, and difficult to see from the outside. But on weekends, there are always luxury cars coming. Most people think that these rich people come to climb the mountain, but they don’t know that they all come to the club.
This club is private in nature and invites the top wealthy people in the capital. There are very few people who are qualified to be invited. Jiang Zhengqi just has this qualification. He is a distinguished guest here, and he came here to meet today. He also chose the location to keep it secret.
When Jiang Zhengqi arrived, the master named Xiao was already waiting in the room. The aroma of tea in the room made Jiang Zhengqi frown as soon as he entered the door. He was in a leisurely mood! The current situation of the Jiang family has a lot to do with him!
Jiang Zhengqi knew that he didn't look good without looking in the mirror. He didn't want to put on a good face now. Even though the man in front of him was a high-ranking person, he recommended himself to the Jiang family, but in the end he messed up. No matter how you look at it today, he should be the one making amends to the Jiang family.
But Jiang Zhengqi soon discovered that he underestimated this person, or in other words, he really couldn't figure out this person. After he arrived, this person poured him tea, praised the feng shui of the club, and praised the mountain scenery outside the window, but he didn't say anything about business.
Jiang Zhengqi is the most tolerant person. If he didn't have such a calm and forbearing temperament, he would not be the only one among the four young men in Beijing who has very little information and has such a low sense of presence. But now the Jiang family is in deep trouble, and the person who caused this situation is right in front of him. No matter how forbearing he is, he can no longer bear it. Seeing that Xiao Yi does not apologize or mention business, he purses his lips and says in a deep voice: "Xiao Yi Sir, do you have nothing else to say to me?"
"What does Mr. Jiang want to hear?" Xiao Yi raised his eyes, with a smile in his eyes, and gave Jiang Zhengqi a gentle look.
Jiang Zhengqi was suddenly startled, but he was always good at concealing his emotions, so the shock was only in his eyes and he suppressed it in an instant. Only then did he remember the man he killed when he first met him, and knew that he was a strange person. Then he weighed his tone and said: "Mr. Xiao, you should know the current situation of the Jiang family. When we cooperated in the beginning, the plan was Your Excellency. The plan was supposed to involve Qin Anming, but instead my father was trapped in it. My father and I are still puzzled by this matter, and I think only Mr. Xiao can understand it."
This was said very politely and did not reveal the Jiang family's suspicions about Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi smiled with a mocking smile, "I thought that the Jiang family should be as strong as they are high-spirited, but I didn't expect that they would also panic when things happen. Such a well-thought-out plan could be turned around. Jun, doesn’t it mean that the opponent’s skill level is very high? Having such a opponent will not be boring, isn’t it a joyful thing?”
When Jiang Zhengqi heard this, he almost spit in Xiao Yi's face! In theory, this is the case. But whose family is in jail and still has the time to appreciate how high his opponent’s level is? This man is really not afraid of flashing his tongue when he talks big! He snorted coldly in his heart, but Jiang Zhengqi took advantage of the situation and asked: "Listen to what Mr. Xiao means, who is the other party? Do you already know something about him?"
"Hmph!" Xiao Yi snorted coldly and narrowed his eyes, "In this world, besides that woman, who else can ruin my plan?"
That woman? Jiang Zhengqi was stunned.
But Xiao Yi felt his breath become cold, as if he squeezed out two words from between his teeth, "Xia Shao!"
"..." Jiang Zhengqi didn't speak for a long time, and his eyes widened suddenly. Xia Shao... The Jiang family had doubts. After all, she was a Feng Shui master that even Xiao Yi was afraid of. However, her age always makes the Jiang family feel incredible. No one wants to believe that the Jiang family is in such a difficult situation because of a girl who is only twenty years old.
But since Xiao Yi said so, it should be right. Is it really her
Just as Jiang Zhengqi was surprised and confused, he heard Xiao Yi laugh.
This smile was different from his seemingly gentle but actually cold smile after he came in. Instead, it was cold from the bottom of his heart. Jiang Zhengqi even shuddered and looked at him in surprise. Looking at it, I just felt that Xiao Yi's face was twisted, his smile was ferocious, with a bit of crazy joy, but his voice was so gentle that it made people's skin crawl.
"However, she won't survive today."
