Chen Xuance seemed to be quite emotional, and sighed again with his hands behind his back, and said: "When I was as young as Xiaoqing, I wanted to ask my elders for their opinions on everything. But I also have my own ideas in my heart.
Sometimes I listen to the guidance of my elders, and sometimes I do things according to my own preferences. Because of my own opinions, I often suffer criticism from my elders..."
Speaking of this, Chen Xuance seemed to recall his past years, raised his head, and let the dim moonlight shine on his face.
It was a face full of vicissitudes of life. I didn’t know how old this cunning old fox was, let alone how many ups and downs he had experienced in this city.
From Yanjing to Peking, and then to Yanjing, no one can explain the vicissitudes of the entire Four-Nine Cities, but if there is one person who can explain it clearly, it may be this thick old guy.
He is just like this ancient city. From the beginning, he became a living person, turned into a powerful ghost, and then survived to become such a profound master figure in the city. No one can tell how many vicissitudes he has experienced. On the surface, he looks calm.
In fact, it is as vast as the ocean inside.
"Well, Xiaoqing is different from me. He is a good and obedient child. People say respect, love, respect, and love. He respects me because he loves me. Love comes first, then respect, so I don't care.
No matter what, he will be very obedient, very obedient...so obedient that I forgot that he is actually a child with his own ideas..."
Chen Xuance said in a low voice: "Xiaoqing has more ideas than me and is more capable than me, but because of my existence, he has never shown his ability. On the one hand, I am worried that he is still young and has no experience.
Not enough, I am afraid that he will fall into trouble...On the one hand, I am also really afraid that he will grow too fast, and then I will not be able to control him..."
Hearing this, I was shocked. I didn't expect that Chen Xuance would reveal such a secret to me. This made me really at a loss.
Chen Xuance has always been a cunning fox in my heart. I never expected that he would reveal his true feelings to me.
In panic, I thought about it, and then asked boldly: "Are you not planning to let Xiaoqing become the next patriarch of the Chen family at the beginning?"
Chen Xuance smiled and asked, "Who told you?"
I didn't answer, but I knew that Chen Xuance must have guessed that it was Chen Xiaoqing who told me. Only the Chen family would know about this matter, and there were only two Chen family members I knew, and one of them was Chen Xuance himself.
Although Chen Xuance understood, he did not tell the truth and said, "Lin Yang, do you think it's strange that I don't like a child as good as Chen Xiaoqing and don't appoint him to inherit the Chen family?"
I didn't hide my thoughts and nodded.
Chen Xuance smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, I want to, but I don't have the power. In the Chen family, only strength is the foundation of everything, and other things have no effect at all. Before my strength fell to the number one in the Chen family, I was
I will not abdicate in favor of others, and the moment I abdicate in favor of others, it means that my strength is no longer enough to intimidate others, and at this time, the position of the new patriarch of the Chen family will be inherited by the next number one of the Chen family... Xiaoqing
Although he is very powerful, he may not be able to become the number one in the Chen family in the short term."
"Mr. Chen, what do you mean... you will no longer be the patriarch of the Chen family in the short term?" I vaguely heard the implication of Chen Xuance's words and asked quickly.
Chen Xuance smiled and said nothing more.
I knew he didn't want to tell me, so I didn't insist on asking.
"Xiao Qing is a very good child. I hope he can grow up quickly. Lin Yang, I am destined not to be able to keep an eye on Xiao Qing. I will inevitably have to trouble you to help me keep an eye on this little grandson in the future." Chen Xuance said slowly.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chen." I said quickly.
"Also, although the assassination of Xu Changsheng is absurd, it does not necessarily mean that it cannot be successful. I will not help you. This is Xiaoqing's first battle after he fledged. Lin Yang, you must see him succeed.
." Chen Xuance said seriously.
"Okay, old man, don't worry." I nodded again and said.
Chen Xuance smiled and said: "This time I miscalculated. I thought Bai Lanshan was a disaster, but I didn't expect to see such a sincere side of her. It's so unpredictable... Sigh... Women are the most elusive.
It’s women.”
After saying this, Chen Xuance looked at Lao Mao and Haoran who were walking in the distance, and whispered: "Lin Yang, although the layout this time is simple, the details are handled very well. Keep up the good work."
After saying that, Chen Xuance flashed and disappeared into the shadow of the street lamp.
At this time, Laomao and the others came over and quickly grabbed me and asked me everything about what had just happened.
Haoran's eyes were sharp and he saw the back of Mr. Chen just now, and I told them everything about Chen Xuance.
When they heard that Bai Lanshan was trying to test me just now, they all sweated for me, and were speechless at Bai Lanshan's cunning character. But what surprised them the most was the plan to assassinate Xu Changsheng. Xu Changsheng obviously
It is not a fuel-efficient lamp. With just a few of us, although the assassination is not impossible, it is not easy either.
You must know that at the last wedding banquet, Bai Lanshan succeeded in a sneak attack. It took the three of me, Chen Xiaoqing, and Bai Lanshan to restrain Xu Changsheng.
Haoran asked first: "Do you want me to accompany you?"
I quickly shook my head and said, "Forget it, I think there are too many people there this time for the three of us to go. If we attract the attention of the messenger again, I'm afraid Little Tutu won't be able to protect me."
Haoran nodded and gave up.
Seeing that tonight's events were over, I said goodbye to Haoran and returned to the apartment with the old cat.
After a good sleep, the old cat came back from nowhere at noon the next day, carrying a sandalwood box.
As soon as I saw the box, I knew what it was. With such exquisite decoration, it must be something extraordinary.
Sure enough, the old cat said proudly: "How is it? Is it fast enough? This is a collection I specially bought from a weapons master. It is quite sharp and valuable!"
Just looking at the box outside, I can already guess that this thing is very powerful. We can't afford such a treasure without Xu Changge's reimbursement. I originally just wanted to buy Chen Xiaoqing a similar dagger, but I didn't expect it.
The old cat actually brought a baby here.
I couldn't wait to bring the sandalwood box with Lao Mao. As soon as the box was opened, a cold air hit my face.
There was an ice blue dagger placed in the box. The lines of the blade and blade were impeccable, and the entire dagger exuded a suffocating murderous aura.
Not to mention Xiao Qing's little broken dagger, even my Zhuyue and this dagger must be slightly overshadowed.
However, my Zhuyue is made of obsidian, which is specially designed to defeat ghosts. Although it seems to be far less valuable than this dagger, its practicality is obviously much better.
The old cat patted the sandalwood box and asked, "How is it? Are you satisfied with this thing?"
I nodded and said, "That boy Xiaoqing must be grinning from ear to ear with joy now. He is even happier than marrying Bai Lanshan!"
The old cat smiled slightly: "Xiaoqing isn't so hopeless, is he?"
I nodded and said, "I really don't think so."
After looking at the dagger, Lao Mao and I studied the topographic map of Changchun Street. The topographic map Bai Lanshan gave us was more about the external environment of the subway. We need to go there to know what the internal situation is like.
The external environment is indeed not of much use. The only favorable condition is that Xuanwu Hospital is not far away. If something happens to me, I can be sent there directly. But if something happens to Bai Lanshan and Chen Xiaoqing, it won't be useful.
In the evening, I packed up my equipment and got ready to go.
The old cat looked at me with a worried look on his face and asked, "Lin Yang, you really don't need me to go? I can ambush outside."
I shook my head and said, "Don't worry, Old Cat. Since you have made an agreement with Bai Lanshan, you can't break your promise."
The old cat nodded and said, "Then be careful. If something happens, remember to escape alive."
I smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't forget, I'm a little fox now."
