Chapter 19: Winds and Clouds
Beijing things seem to have come to an end, I and He Qinghua and Fatty, back to Luoyang, to Luoyang after. In fact, I have been concerned about the movement of Beijing, from He Qinghua there know some news about the Beijing Li family.
Very bad, seems to only use these three words to describe the current Li family, Li family several backbone are because of "corruption and bribery" and other lawless things were dealt with like lightning, but Aunt Pei told me that, in fact, the Li family's decline, the real reason is "disobedient "The crime of Zhuge Qingfeng in the Li family failure, this immersed in the officialdom for many years of old oil of course will not let go of the opportunity to beat the dog, in fact, the so-called struggle is so, the Li family planning the imperial city dragon root intends to ascend to the top, the failure of the almost inevitable thing.
This makes this side of the He Qinghua is very depressed, but I do not know how to comfort, and finally there is good news, He Qinghua and He Pingan's father, the He Wenchang, because it is in the career establishment, coupled with the person is indeed very low-key, this time even spared in the Li family of this torrent.
A Li's death, resulting in a series of things, confused me, which even let me have a little fear of Beijing, so I very urgently want to let Chen Jiuzi two and gourd brothers from Beijing back to Luoyang, such a big vortex, in case they are involved in, almost will become a disaster.
But at this time, I found that I can not contact them, gourd brothers, including Chen Jiuzi's cell phone has been turned off, a kind of ominous foreboding lingering in my mind, offending the Li family is fat man and I, may be because of fat man and I broke the Li family of the plan, the Li family of the two of us have a grudge which is unavoidable, although the Li family is now in trouble, but the thin camel is bigger than a horse, this thing! In an instant, it made me nervous. I asked Aunt Pei to check, she told me not to worry, this thing is obviously related to the Li family, but I believe that the Li family can not do anything out of the ordinary now.
I want to go to Beijing to rescue Chen Jiuzi, Aunt Pei said to me: "You are not convenient to come, even if you come is not useful, wait for my news is."
I think about it, in Beijing in addition to aunt Pei this I do not say very trusting people, I do not even have other friends, go to the search for Chen Jiuzi also has no use, but not a few days, aunt Pei suddenly gave me a phone call: "Li Dangguo want to see you, he knows the whereabouts of your little girlfriend."
"Where is Li Dangguo?" I asked.
"Almost house arrest." Aunt Pei said to me.
I didn't even ask if I could go this time and went straight to Beijing with Fatty and He Qinghua. The first thing I went to after arriving in Beijing was Aunt Pei's courtyard, and among the people in the courtyard, besides Aunt Pei, there was another person I was familiar with, that was Zhuge Qingfeng.
This time Zhuge Qingfeng see me and fat man, not so enthusiastic, Aunt Pei arranged a table for us, today is obviously Aunt Pei to Zhuge Qingfeng invited, I do not know ask Aunt Pei what is the meaning of, she laughed: "There are some things that I am a woman is not good to come out, want to see Li Dangguo, deal with the Li family, are Mr. Zhuge in charge. "
I nodded and thanked Aunt Pei, at this time I don't have the heart to flirt with anyone, Chen Jiuzi's safety occupies my whole mind, at the dinner table, the fat man doesn't know what he's thinking about lately, he's been silent all the time, completely unlike his usual character, He Qinghua also became relatively reticent after the Li family's incident, not to mention that right now we don't have any value to him anymore Zhuge Qingfeng, able to to see us for a bit, it was probably Aunt Pei's face.
"Mr. Zhuge, I want to see a Li Dangguo, you know, a few of my friends might be in his hands, I need to save them." I really couldn't help but say.
"It's a bit difficult." Zhuge Qingfeng shook his head. Then he looked at me and said, "The Li family made a big commotion this time and almost got it, so many big names are very unhappy with them, even if they usually don't have any beefs, they are now jumping out not wanting the Li family to have any chance to get up. That's why the entire Li family, is staring very closely."
"Those few people under their control are very important to me." I sincerely said to Zhuge Qingfeng.
Zhuge Qingfeng sighed and said, "I will definitely do what I can, but this matter."
"Gave you face didn't I?" Has been silent fat man at this time opened his mouth and said, this sentence, obviously not to me, but Zhuge Qingfeng, I was stunned by him, Zhuge Qingfeng now we are begging others, others give us a little face is very normal, how I did not expect the fat man will suddenly stab.
So after the fat man's words, the atmosphere is instantly awkward.
"Chen Jiuzi that little girl is also very important to me, do you know that the name Chen Jiuzi is more important to a surname Lin? Come on, I won't hide it from you, Lin Bachian has a prospective nephew-in-law, also named Chen Jiuzi, Fatty my face is not big enough, I have to let him come to beg you Zhuge Old Goddess?" Fatty continued, this was clearly a threat, using Lin Bachi to threaten Zhuge Qingfeng.
Lin Bachian was very powerful no doubt, but Zhuge Qingfeng was a quasi state master like figure, would he really eat this? And Zhuge Qingfeng's next face told me that he was really intimidated by Fatty. Only to see his face change, he laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Liu is joking, the main thing is that this matter of the Li family, it's very difficult to wrap up, don't forget that there are still two heavyweights in the Li family that haven't appeared, and it's unknown where they are right now."
Fatty at this time suddenly slapped the table and scolded, "Don't chirp with me Fatty, I'm just asking you, can this matter be done!"
Zhuge Qingfeng's face changed, he was undoubtedly made very faceless by the fat man, but it was not good to have a fit, after a while, he held the cup in his hand, almost wanting to break the cup as if he was holding it, "Success, tomorrow, I will arrange for you to see Li Dangguo, Li Jianfeng's matter with He Xiaoyu, I still hope that Taoist friend Liu and the three two young friends will take the trouble to do it."
"Out of breath. Cultivating the Dao to the extent that you have, you are not afraid of losing the face of your your ancestor, Yuan Shi Tian Zun." Fatty snorted.
"People have their own aspirations." Zhuge Qingfeng said slowly.
This meal, although it reached the result I wanted, but it is undoubtedly unhappy, after eating, the fat man still let me stay here, I simply don't know what he really thinks in his heart, is it really want me to do Aunt Pei, or is it that the surveillance of Aunt Pei? When the fat man left, his face was unhappy, I asked him why, he didn't say, he said he would come over in the morning, and then he took He Qinghua and left.
All of a sudden, I was left here again, sort of alone with Aunt Pei. Because of Chen Jiuzou, I see Aunt Pei feel guilty, to Jiuzou's guilt, after all, she came to Beijing this time is also considered to help me, and then because of me to put themselves all up.
"Little guy, not happy?" Aunt Pei asked me at this time.
"Sis, do you think I can be happy?" I laughed bitterly.
"Don't worry, it should be fine. I see that you seem to have had an argument today when you were chatting with Mr. Zhuge over there?" Sister Pei asked me.
"En, this person was not willing to help at first." I said.
Sister Pei didn't say anything, and after a while, she came to my room and added some spices to the incense burner in my room, saying, "This smell, it can relieve stress." Then, she sat down on a stool and said to me, "Since it's a quarrel, you shouldn't know, the result of the interrogation of the Li family, right?"
"This still needs an interrogation?" I was surprised, the Li family's crime is not "disobedience".
"Don't you feel that the Li family's internal situation is very complicated? Second Master Li is a faction, and He Xiaoyu's side is a faction? There is also a faction that is nothing more than that Li Jianfeng who walked away, as for Li Dangguo, whether it belongs to Li Jianfeng or Second Master Li, no one knows." Aunt Pei said.
"Hmm?" I asked.
"Can't you see it? This time He Xiaoyu left that sentence saying that only you can handle Elder Li's matter, acting like she's helping the Li family through you, but in fact, she's borrowing your hand to spoil Elder Li's matter? Then the Li family's people basically or big or small have gone wrong, but the Li family's few surnamed He, nothing at all, don't you feel strange?" Aunt Pei said.
