Chapter Four Hundred and Fortieth: Father and Daughter
Ma Si took the brief report in his hand and read it carefully and back and forth several times. Finally, he picked up a pen and signed his name on it, and wrote the word "agree".
Huangfu Qiushui, who had just returned from East Island, stood in the room tiredly, took Ma Si's report, nodded and said, "Thank you."
Among the young executives who were recalled by Li Tianlan, Huangfu Qiushui, who lives in the East Island, is relatively one of the people closest to Tiannan, but he is also the latest to arrive.
Because the situation of Dongdao is extremely special.
Today's Dongdao has long lost the courage it had when it faced the decisive battle in Tiandu.
After the decisive battle in Tiandu, the strength was greatly reduced. With the departure of Tiandu Purgatory, the night of gambling during the decisive battle in Beihai and the crazy investment on the night of the alliance operation...
Nowadays, there are only two or three big cats and kittens in Dongdao.
They don't even have big cats or kittens.
In the eyes of real masters of the dark world, the dark world of Dongdao has really become a toy like an ant, fragile and pitiful.
In this situation, Higashishima has no one else who can help him except Mai Shiranui.
If there is no protection from outside forces, even a Thunder Realm master can plunge the East Island into huge chaos.
Dongdao was not panicked at first.
Because their so-called vulnerability is based on the premise that there is no one to protect them.
But it was Donghuang Palace and Li Tianlan who protected them.
Just the existence of this name can make Dongdao much safer now than before.
Dongdao has shown great sincerity, so everyone feels more at ease.
It looks like he is lying flat on his back, but in fact he is recuperating and trying to regain his strength.
But no matter what, at this stage, Dongdao is indeed very honest.
As Li Tianlan's woman, Huangfu Qiushui truly received almost queen-like treatment in Dongdao.
But the break between Li Tianlan and Donghuang Palace disrupted all this, and caused a significant change in Dongdao's attitude.
Of course, this change of attitude is not from docility to hostility. Now Dongdao is very confused and confused.
Until Huangfu Qiushui came to Tiannan, Dongdao was still holding meetings and discussing intensely.
They have always enjoyed the protection from Donghuang Palace and Li Tianlan, but now the two have split...
What Dong Dao was discussing was who they should rely on now.
This is also the reason why Huangfu Qiushui returned to Tiannan so late.
The moment the East Palace announcement was released, Huangfu Qiushui, who was staying in East Island, could completely feel the chaos and panic in the internal atmosphere of East Island.
She and Mai Shiranui cooperated with the Phoenix Chamber to temporarily suppress the situation, but this would not last long after all. What happens in the future depends on the specific measures of Donghuang Palace and Li Tianlan.
It is also because of this that when Ma Si wrote the word "agree" just now, he seemed very reluctant.
Yesterday, he was Li Huacheng's secretary, and today he has become the deputy palace master of the East Palace.
Qin Weibai had already held an internal meeting, and in conjunction with the external announcement, he officially recognized Ma Si's identity.
Ma Si also quickly got into working mode.
His current office is temporary, on the fourth floor of the castle, with simple decoration, but after hanging the sign of the first deputy palace owner, he has begun to get in touch with the core power of the Eastern Palace.
When Ma Si came here, the first thing he had to deal with was the loss of high-end combat power in the Eastern Palace.
Huangfu Qiushui had specific duties in the East Palace.
She has not been Li Tianlan's woman for a long time, but the relationship is very clear. In the East Palace, she is the veritable Minister of Internal Security.
If the situation hadn't changed too quickly after the alliance operation, Huangfu Qiu Shui wouldn't have needed to go to the East Island. Her duty was to stay with Li Tianlan and be responsible for the security of the East Palace, Xuanyuan City, and the future Xuanyuan Province.
This is the real core location of the Eastern Palace.
It’s not just Huangfu Qiushui.
Even Li Baitian, Bai Youming, and every high-level executive recalled by Li Tianlan have clear duties in the East Palace.
Li Tianlan can recall them.
But if they want to officially leave the East Palace, they need to at least submit a formal resignation report to the East Palace.
This is a necessary process.
After all, it was only Li Tianlan who was separated from the East Palace, and as Ma Si entered Tiannan, the relationship between the East Palace and the parliament became closer.
After Li Tianlan became the God of War to protect the country, he was regarded as the immediate superior of the Eastern Palace. But even so, he could not transfer people just by saying he would. Temporary secondments were possible, but it was not that easy to take people away directly.
Ma Si has obviously started to get into working mode.
So when faced with Huangfu Qiushui's resignation application, although he agreed, he was full of reluctance.
After writing these two words and adding his name, it means that Huangfu Qiushui has nothing to do with the East Palace.
The Valkyrie of the North Sea, the Valkyrie of the South...
Now that she leaves Tiannan, her name as Valkyrie will not change, and Ma Sisi can't do it without feeling distressed.
"How is the situation on East Island?"
Ma Si rubbed his forehead and asked suddenly.
Huangfu Qiushui looked down at the resignation application in his hand, thought for a while, and then replied: "It's not very good. The situation is a bit chaotic. Some people insist on following Your Majesty, while others prefer to talk to Sister Qin. They can't make up their minds at the moment."
Ma Si's eyes flickered slightly and he glanced at Huangfu Qiushui with a smile.
Only then did Huangfu Qiushui realize the problem of his position, pursed his lips, and looked a little confused.
She still doesn't quite understand why Li Tianlan left the East Palace so decisively and completely.
"Can I go see my father?"
Huangfu Qiushui suddenly asked.
The first batch of recalled senior officials have already left Tiannan. The majority of these people are old people from the Li family. If we count the time now, they are almost arriving in Youzhou.
Among the second batch, Huangfu Qiushui arrived relatively early, and at least Li Baitian and the others were still on the way.
There was still some time, so Huangfu Qiushui didn't dare to face Qin Weibai, so he could only propose to go see Huangfu Yi who was imprisoned in the East Palace.
After the failure of the alliance operation, Huangfu Qiushui had already met Huangfu Yi, but the time was very short and he did not say anything specific.
It is precisely because of the existence of Huangfu Qiushui that compared to other prisoners, Huangfuyi's treatment is the best. He even has a separate room, has a lot of choice for three meals a day, and even has cigarettes every day.
liquor.
As long as Huangfuyi does not leave the room where he is held, he will enjoy the best treatment as a prisoner.
And these, as I leave the East Palace, maybe they will all be cancelled, right?
Huangfu Qiushui thought silently, but did not hesitate.
Her heart and body had been conquered by Li Tianlan, so although she didn't quite understand Li Tianlan's behavior, she didn't even think about questioning it.
She apologized to Huangfu Yi, but that was all.
"Okay, please do."
Ma Si nodded, his mind subconsciously drifting to Dongdao.
Huangfu Qiushui said thank you again, took his resignation application and left Ma Si's temporary office.
Pass through the corridor and enter the elevator.
The elevator goes up.
Huangfu Qiushui silently came to the room where Huangfu Yi was imprisoned.
The corridor was quiet, and no one stopped her from approaching.
Huangfu Qiushui stood quietly outside the door for a while.
There was still some movement among the people in the room, but as if they noticed someone coming, the slight movement disappeared.
In the silence, Huangfu Qiushui pursed his lips tightly, and his face, which had become more enchanting since becoming a woman, gradually became firmer.
She stretched out her hand and knocked on the door.
With slow footsteps, the door was opened.
Huangfuyi stood in front of the door, looking at his daughter with a calm expression.
Huangfu Qiushui looked at him.
The father and daughter looked at each other, neither of them looking away.
"came back."
Huangfu Yi took the initiative to speak, and his voice was calm.
"Yes, Dad."
Huangfu Qiushui hesitated for a moment.
She shouted the word "dad" a little slowly, as if she thought of something, a blush quietly appeared on her face.
Huangfuyi was a little confused, but he didn't ask anything: "Come in and talk."
Huangfu Qiushui walked into the room.
There are several side dishes placed on the coffee table in the room.
There is even a high-strength liquor that is currently only available in Beihai.
"Your life looks pretty good."
Huangfu Qiushui said softly.
"of course."
Huangfuyi smiled, his smile was gentle, but his voice was a little cold: "I gave birth to a good daughter, how could the treatment she obtained by betraying the family for me, her biological father, be bad?
If I wanted to, I could even give you a younger brother and sister here."
Huangfu Qiushui's eyes fluctuated slightly.
This was the first time Huangfuyi mentioned the word betrayal to her since she joined the Eastern Palace.
"Sorry, the life now is what I want."
Her voice is light.
"If your apology is only worth this, then it is indeed of some use."
Huangfuyi pointed to the sumptuous meals, tobacco and wine on the coffee table.
"actually..."
Huangfu Qiushui thought for a while: "I'm just being polite. I have nothing to apologize to you.
I'm sorry for the teacher, I'm sorry for Di Bingshan, I'm sorry for my mother...
But father...
You and I...
Not very familiar."
Huangfuyi's expression suddenly stiffened.
Huangfu Qiushui sat down on the sofa: "Since you take my politeness seriously, then I don't need to be polite anymore.
I betrayed Emperor Bingshan, but the teacher and Brother Shengxiao didn't kill me.
I'll try to make it up to them if possible.
I'm sorry for my mother, but my mother has been killed by Wang Xiaoyao, right?
You should be able to receive messages from the outside world.
Huangfu family...
Your Huangfu family no longer exists.
On the night of the decisive battle in Beihai, Wang Xiaoyao's elite troops landed from Qiushui City and destroyed the entire Huangfu family.
Now, in the Huangfu family, except for you and me, there is only one traitor left, and everyone else is dead."
Huangfuyi's face turned pale.
He clenched his fists subconsciously and said word by word: "I will kill him, I don't need you to remind me."
"What a coincidence, I will kill him too."
Huangfu Qiushui said softly: "I will do it, but if you want to do this, you must first leave the East Palace.
Father, it’s still very early, I think we can have a talk.”
