Chapter 254
The two brothers discussed for a while, and then got off the boat and left.
Shen Liang also poked his head out of the cabin and saw his younger brother walking away, with no one paying attention. He suddenly jumped and landed on another awning boat parked three feet away.
Lan Qiao secretly praised Shen Liang's Qinggong, thinking that the development of the Hanshui League to its present scale was not due to luck.
Bai Xueyin leaned into his ear and said, "Brother, guess who is on that ship?"
Lan Qiao thought for a while and said, "It's probably the Third Elder Spider he just mentioned, and maybe people from the Erqi Society."
"Let's go over and have a look."
"Be careful not to be discovered."
The two of them dived into the water, swam to a clump of reeds by the river, hid themselves, and looked at the awning boat along the gaps in the reeds.
At first glance, Lan Qiao couldn't help but be shocked. However, he saw seven people sitting in darkness on the small awning boat, including the newly arrived Shen Liang.
The most eye-catching one is naturally Hua Yuxi.
She was wearing a pink dress, with her black hair tied up with a silk handkerchief, and she was sitting with her back on the place closest to the bow of the ship. The rustling river wind made her clothes flutter, making her extremely beautiful.
The other four people in the cabin were all old acquaintances of Lan Qiao, including Zhang Zhongjie, Xiao Wuhen, and two Wala masters, Tegusrang and Zha Chiwen.
Shen Liang, dressed in low-key gray clothes, was sitting at the stern of the boat. Next to him was a wretched little old man. He must be the third elder of the Qionglou Society, "Spider".
"I really hit the passenger car by mistake this time." Lan Qiao couldn't hide his excitement, "If we can capture Hua Yuxi, maybe we can exchange her for Ling'er."
Bai Xueyin gently held Lan Qiao's hand and injected pure Qi. Lan Qiao's senses immediately increased exponentially.
Just listen to Zhang Zhongjie grumble and say, "Xiao Li, that bastard, is still hiding such a skill. He is really hurting us."
Hua Yuxi said calmly, "Don't just complain. This kind of head-turning thing must be spared by everyone."
Zhang Zhongjie was still furious, "He just kept the letter himself, how could he give it to outsiders?"
"It can only be said that Xiao Li is smarter than we thought." Hua Yuxi said, "He was sure that we would silence him when he came back. Even if he kept the letter, it would be dug out, so he simply gave it to Xie Jin for safekeeping. As a life-saving talisman.”
Lan Qiao had never heard of the names Xiao Li and Xie Jin, and was just guessing about their roles in this matter when he heard Zhang Zhongjie say again, "In that case, we shouldn't have sent the letter to him in the first place."
"Instigating someone to do something that's almost treason. If you don't give him a written letter, why should he work for you?" Hua Yuxi glared at Zhang Zhongjie angrily and said, "You still blame me. If I were I just sent you verbally to deal with the Wenchang Hou Mansion. Are you willing to obey my orders? After so many lessons, you still can't learn to use your brain. No wonder you were dismissed from the post of Xuzhou Commander."
"So what if I listened to you and didn't let Lan Qiao run away in Xuzhou?" Zhang Zhongjie said unconvinced, "I think you clearly like her and you just refuse to admit it."
But seeing a flash of golden light, Hua Yuxi strangled Zhang Zhongjie's neck with a golden cross feather, and said in a cold voice, "Try to believe it or not if you say another word, I will kill you."
Zhang Zhongjie's cheeks turned red because of her stranglehold, and he said painfully, "This subordinate realizes his mistake."
"Look at your worthless coward." Hua Yuxi loosened the chain, returned the cross golden feather to her hand, and said calmly, "Do your own work first, and then worry about others."
Spider coughed lightly and said, "Hua, everyone is capable in doing things. You must be deeply trusted in Erqihui."
"Where." Hua Yuxi said modestly, "Juniors are dull by nature. Only by being cautious and walking on thin ice can we avoid making any mistakes."
Spider nodded and asked, "I heard that the relationship between the Hua family and Lord An of Lingyu Hall is extraordinary, but I don't know if there is any unknown misunderstanding in it."
Hua Yuxi was still thinking about how to reply, but Xiao Wuhen had already answered on her behalf, "When the young lady first came to Chushui City, the master's wife was seriously ill. Because of the young lady's medical skills, they hit it off when she was treating the master's wife. The master's wife felt very sorry for her.
Miss Xi, on the one hand, let her serve as our young master’s lecturer, on the other hand, she dragged her sick body to teach her skills such as prostitution and cooking.”
Spider glanced at Hua Yuxi and said puzzledly, "Hua must have been just a little girl who had just arrived at the time. Why did Master Ling look at her so differently?"
Xiao Wuhen sighed and said quietly, "Master's wife did not express her intention clearly until her death, but according to Wuhen's inference, she may have wanted the young lady to renew her husband's string one day in the future."
"Sister Xiao," Hua Yuxi blushed and said angrily, "It's not easy to talk nonsense like this. Master treats me with great kindness. I always respect him as a father and have never thought about it."
Xiao Wuhen stroked Hua Yuxi's hair lovingly, and said like a big sister, "Master's wife passed away young. Miss, do you think master will spend the rest of his life in loneliness? Miss Xiu is smart, she can learn everything instantly, and she has a small talent."
The young master likes it. If the master wants to continue his marriage, is there any better choice than the young lady?"
"That makes sense." Zha Wen said as he raised his folding fan, "No wonder Hall Master An trusts Miss Poppy so much that he lets her do everything. It turns out there is this level of relationship behind it."
Spider also nodded and said, "So what you are doing is actually entrusting an orphan to your husband. She is also entrusting her son to you. It can be said that she has good intentions."
Xiao Wuhen added, "At that time in Chushui City, Zuo Dao and his son once seized a Chixia Baihua Pill from Hua Feng, the leader of the Huashan Sect. This is a secret healing medicine that has been lost for a long time. Zuo Dao felt like he had found a treasure, but later...
Lu Tai was seriously injured, so the young lady asked for the elixir and gave it to Al Tai. Although Zuo Dao was reluctant, he could only obediently take it out for the sake of the master."
Mentioning this matter, Tegusrang, a member of the Mongolian master group, said excitedly, "I know this. Zuodao was the boss's reluctance at first, and then he pretended to be generous as if he was frustrated. His expression still makes me feel...
It’s so damn enjoyable.”
Hua Yuxi waved her hand towards Tegusi and said displeasedly, "We should avoid saying such words in the future. It is not conducive to our internal unity. Now that Zuo Zhan is dead, and with this incident in mind, Zuo Dao will definitely hate me to death."
"Zuo Dao is used to being domineering and domineering, both inside and outside meetings. I didn't expect that there are people who I don't dare to offend now." Shen Liang didn't know if he had any quarrel with Zuo Dao, so he said sarcastically, "Now Xu Qiuyu and Murong Ying are dead and the other is injured."
, Hall Master An’s reputation is at its peak, and he is on the verge of becoming one of the top masters in the world. Miss, there is nothing to worry about if you are leaning against his big tree.”
