At seven o'clock in the morning, a black Audi slowly drove into Longdu Maple Leaf Park.
Although the sun was out, the rain last night still made the whole city feel a little cooler.
Tang Ruoxue, who was sitting in the car, also wrapped her clothes, and then looked at an inconspicuous low building on the east side of the park.
It was a small courtyard.
The courtyard is not luxurious or glamorous, but the official address is the fifth Hutong of Longdu, which is still in a corner of Maple Leaf Park, which shows that the owner behind it is not simple.
In fact, this is also the main place for Tang Pingfan's work, and it is difficult for ordinary powerful people and even the Tang family to come in.
After passing through layers of checkpoints, the car arrived at the gate of Siheyuan and stopped. The door opened and Tang Ruoxue came out.
After several guards confirmed Tang Ruoxue's identity, they opened the railing and let her enter alone, while the rest of the bodyguards were waiting at the door.
Tang Ruoxue walked through a corridor and then went to a semi-open garden.
She was about to walk in when a middle-aged woman flashed out.
She stopped Tang Ruoxue and was polite: "Miss Tang, Mr. Tang is calling, you can wait before going in."
"OK!"
Tang Ruoxue was very sensible and stopped.
She knew in her heart that although she was the head of the Thirteenth Branch, some things still could not overcome the rules.
The middle-aged woman also added with a smile: "Miss Tang, have you had breakfast? If not, I will ask someone to prepare one more and you can have a meal with your husband."
Tang Ruoxue thought for a while and shook her head, then spoke in a plain tone: "Thank you Secretary Jiang, I've already eaten it."
She hasn't eaten yet, and she is even a little hungry.
Although she got up early, she stayed in bed and watched Ye Fan for a long time, then took a shower and changed clothes. After tossing, she had no time to have breakfast.
But she still didn't want to have breakfast with Tang Pingfan. It was not that my uncle's daily vegetables and tofu made her lose her appetite, but that she hoped that she would stay awake a little.
As his name suggests, the uncle is too approachable and will forget his grudges with his father if he is not careful.
After saying that, she moved her steps and poured a cup of warm water for Tang Ruoxue, which was diligent and peaceful, no different from the neighbor's aunt.
But Tang Ruoxue knew her identity. Secretary Jiang was the top scorer in the college entrance examination in a major province with a high score of 20 years ago. No one has broken the record yet.
And his skills are also quite terrifying, they are the seventy-two generals of the Tang Sect.
So Tang Ruoxue never underestimates her harmless smile.
"Miss Tang, please come here."
Almost tenth, Secretary Jiang's headphones moved slightly, and then she turned her hand to Tang Ruoxue.
She brought Tang Ruoxue into the back garden pavilion and asked someone to bring Tang Pingfan's breakfast.
"Ruoxue, are you here?"
"Did you encounter any problems when you meet me so urgently?"
As soon as Tang Ruoxue walked into the pavilion, a thick voice sounded with care.
Then, she saw the uncle wearing a kind face appeared in front of her.
As his name suggests, ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty not only look inconspicuous, but also have no outstanding temperament. At first glance, they look similar to street chess old men.
He greeted Tang Ruoxue warmly: "Come on, sit on, sit on, your family, don't be so polite."
"Thank you uncle."
Tang Ruoxue sat down in front of Tang Pingfan without bending around the bush: "Uncle, I'm here this time and I really want you to help me solve a problem."
"trouble?"
Tang Pingfan was slightly surprised: "There are still troubles that Ruoxue, you can't solve?"
While speaking, Secretary Jiang delivered the breakfast.
A plate of tofu, a plate of vegetables, a plate of crushed eggs, and a bowl of hot porridge.
"That's right. I went to Longjing Hotel to bet last night. I won the money, but Yang broke the deadlock and cheated, and finally provoked Ye Tang's people."
Tang Ruoxue briefly described the storm last night to Tang Pingfan, and finally breathed a long breath:
"Looking at the terrible tempers of Ye Feiyang and those people, I feel that they will definitely take revenge on me and Ye Fan."
"I hope my uncle can come forward to help me suppress this matter."
"For this reason, I am willing to give up the position of the Thirteen Leaders to Tang Hailong."
Tang Ruoxue simply expressed his intentions.
"The Ye Tang people are all active?"
Tang Pingfan smiled faintly when he heard this: "It seems that the Ye family is not satisfied with the world outside the country, and they also want to come back to China to get a share of the pie."
"Uncle, the Ye family is very tough and has many methods. Ye Fan and I are afraid that we can't stand it."
Tang Ruoxue straightened his body slightly: "I hope my uncle can help. Ruoxue is grateful. I am willing to give up the thirteen positions."
"What is this? You kid, like your father."
Tang Pingfan pinched the chopsticks and spoke righteously: "Don't worry, I'll take care of this."
"It was because they were wrong, but they were still whining. If you don't give them a little color, do you really think that the Tang Sect can be bullied?"
"But you, the thirteen leaders, don't have to give up."
"I don't like you to trade with me like this."
"You are my niece. If I don't protect you, who will I protect?"
"Thirteen house heads are also something you are striving for. What is it that I can just take them back?"
"I know there are many rumors now that Tang Hailong is going to replace you when he comes back. Uncle will tell you a briefing now. For me, this is not the case."
"As long as you are not at fault and have no major losses, you will always be the thirteen house heads."
He raised his face and scolded Tang Ruoxue: "I will not say anything about giving up my position in the future, otherwise you will be like your father and will not treat me as a relative."
"clear."
Tang Ruoxue was stunned at first, then spoke respectfully: "Thank you uncle."
She was surprised that the uncle was willing to come forward to suppress Ye Tang, and she was even more surprised that he didn't need to give up his position himself, but seeing his serious look, Tang Ruoxue didn't dare to test anything again.
And as long as the uncle agreed to negotiate with Ye Tang, she would be very satisfied.
Afterwards, Tang Ruoxue stood up and left. She knew that Tang Pingfan's personality was not liked too much vain and that his time was precious.
"Head of the family, why didn't you take the opportunity to ask Tang Ruoxue for the position of trustworthy Tang Hailong to take office?"
Tang Ruoxue almost disappeared, and a figure appeared in the other corner of the garden. Tang Shier ran over with two walnuts playing with them.
Instead of calling the eldest brother, he called the head of the family to maintain Tang Pingfan's status.
Tang Shier looked at Tang Pingfan in confusion: "This is a chance to come to the door, it's a pity to waste it like this."
"idiot."
Tang Pingfan lost his approachableness and had a bit of majesty on his face:
"A good piece of iron also requires a good whetstone. If Tang Hailong can't even fight Tang Ruoxue, what are you doing in that position?"
"Just like I asked Tang Ruoxue to take office, in addition to stabilizing the thirteen teams as fast as possible, it also stimulates you and makes you feel a little crisis."
"And things that are too easy to get are often not cherished. If Tang Hailong spends some effort to become the head of the Thirteenth Branch, he will work harder and more grateful."
After saying that, he took another sip of hot porridge and felt the power of the food.
Tang Shi'er was stunned at first, then suddenly realized:
"I understand, understand, I thought my family was mainly about Tang Sanguo Net. It turned out that she wanted Tang Ruoxue to be Tang Hailong's whetstone."
"By the way, Lin Qiuling is dead now, there is less suppression."
He turned the two walnuts: "Do we want to find a chance? Kill Tang Sanguo with a click and eliminate this thorn in his heart?"
"What's the point of killing with one knife?"
Tang Pingfan pinched the chopsticks and snorted: "The real superior is a waste."
"Everyone said that I don't kill Tang Sanguo because I care about reputation. In fact, they don't know. I don't care about my reputation as a killer, and I have many means to kill him."
"The reason I keep it is just to leave a thorn in your heart, so that you can always tighten your critical nerves of life and death."
"In this way, the Tang Sect will not die because it is too comfortable and drunk, nor will it lose its fangs because it has no strong enemies, nor will it lead to internal strife."
"Look at it, over the past twenty years, the five great masters, used to be at the bottom of the Tang family, how are they now? They are strong and powerful, and rich, and they are as good as the country. This is the benefit of the Tang Three Kingdoms."
"His existence has closely condensed the entire Tang Sect."
"When Tang Sanguo is alive, everyone will always worry that once he turns the tables, how many people will die in the Tang Sect and how much wealth they will lose."
His tone was very indifferent: "After all, the people who follow me now are the ones who attacked Tang Sanguo at the time."
Tang Shi'er touched the corner of his mouth a few times, then sighed: "The head of the family is far-sighted, this is the catfish effect."
Tang Pingfan changed his tone: "Don't talk about this nonsense, do one thing."
Tang Shi's eyes narrowed: "What happened to Tang Ruoxue?"
"Use your relationship and scan the Longjing Hotel for me."
Tang Pingfan lowered his head and drank a sip of porridge:
