Li Tianlan's voice was hoarse and complex, seeming to contain countless indescribable emotions.
Bai Zhanfang and Dongcheng Wuhui looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.
The whole world wants to know what happened between Qin Weibai and Li Tianlan. There are all kinds of speculations, both reliable and unreliable.
Until now, Bai Zhanfang and Dongcheng Wudi didn't even have a good night's sleep, which is why they were invited to have dinner at home today.
They all wanted to talk to Li Tianlan and Qin Weibai to see what conflicts they had and hoped that they could get back together.
No matter from any aspect, they don't want to see the two of them really break up.
This is true both from the overall situation and from a personal perspective.
Just looking at the current situation, things seem a bit unusual.
Li Tianlan's tone was too complicated.
It was so complicated that the two of them couldn't even judge the emotion in this sentence for a while.
And now it seems that the relationship between Li Tianlan and Qin Weibai does not seem to be a real break, let alone the disconnection after the breakup, but a state of entanglement that seems to have broken up but not yet broken up, which is very subtle.
At this critical point, Bai Zhanfang and Dongcheng Wudi didn't even dare to do anything for a while.
That's the case with many things.
Especially between men and women, as long as they still have each other in their hearts, no matter how big the conflict is, they can be resolved. However, if other people intervene, it may cause other variables, and even if they are well-intentioned, they will often not get good results.
So in this situation, what they should do most is to wait and see.
The two of them were silent for a while and ate a dumpling at the same time.
Qin Weibai didn't seem to hear anything. She suddenly became energetic. She pinched Li Tianlan's face with her little hands and said with a smile: "Just be nice to me. Don't bully me."
"Did Tian Lan bully you?"
Dongcheng Wudi coughed dryly and asked.
"Yes, Dad, you don't know, he was very fierce yesterday, lost his temper, and even wanted to hit me."
Qin Weibai was a little resentful and pretended to be aggrieved.
Dongcheng Wudi's eyes changed and he looked at Li Tianlan.
He didn't say anything harsh, but he stared at Li Tianlan again and again.
It's this feeling again...
It's this feeling again...
What's going on with this inexplicable feeling?
Li Tianlan was a little helpless. At this moment, he really felt that not only Bai Qingqian and Qin Weibai were like mother and daughter, but Dongcheng Wudi and Qin Weibai were more like father and daughter, and he seemed to be a son-in-law, taking on the responsibility from his ex-wife's natal family.
pressure.
"She's talking nonsense."
Li Tianlan was speechless: "I have never made a move with her."
"What nonsense?"
Bai Qingqian came over with a bottle of wine: "I believe you won't do anything, but your attitude is indeed not very good. I just saw you bullying Xiaobai.
You are going to have a lifetime together from now on, Tianlan, no matter what happens, you have to restrain your temper."
Li Tianlan looked blank.
He wanted to say that he had almost lost his temper now, but looking at the expressions of the three elders, he knew that it was useless.
Qin Weibai smiled and pinched Li Tianlan's face again: "I will be satisfied if you treat me better in the future. You are not allowed to hurt me anymore, do you understand?"
Li Tianlan was a little angry and subconsciously reached out and slapped Qin Weibai on the butt: "Eat!"
Qin Weibai's face turned red and he glared at him.
The dumplings are cooked quickly.
Different fillings, served on different plates.
Drinks were poured in front of several people.
Three men drank white wine and two women drank red wine.
It wasn't until everyone sat together that Bai Qingqian asked curiously: "What do you think about today's meeting?"
"Very lively."
Dongcheng Wudi held the wine glass and raised his eyebrows: "The Prince Group and the Southeast Group have completely fallen out. Tianlan, you left a little early and didn't see it.
Zheng Min and Wang Qinglei almost got into a fight at the venue.
Wang Shengxiao and Wang Xiaoyao were talking tit-for-tat, just like they were talking about cross talk. They both wanted to kill each other, but everyone in the venue was amused by them."
Bai Zhanfang ate dumplings and said: "Zhong Youwei is completely finished this time. Although he participated in the entire meeting, he has now been controlled after the meeting.
The Prince Group wanted to defend its position, but was forced into a corner by the Southeast Group.
The Ji article is the same as before, the style is too familiar, the evidence is thrown out bit by bit, and new evidence is thrown out every time on the key points.
It's not that no one spoke up for Zhong Youwei, and Wu Qingyuan was brave enough to do anything, but Ji Wenwen had too much evidence in his hands.
After all this trouble, Wu Qingyuan had completely lost his face.
He emphasized more than once in the meeting that Zhong Youwei's nature is good. In the end, Ji Wenwen almost stuck him in his neck and questioned him. There was so much evidence and it was clear and straightforward. Ji Wenwen asked Wu Qingyuan if such people were all good in nature.
, then what exactly is bad?”
A smile appeared on Li Tianlan's lips.
He didn't expect Ji Wenwen to be so staunch.
He didn't have the slightest fondness for Wu Qingyuan, and Li Tianlan felt a little secretly happy when he thought of his expression at that time.
For these powerful old people, the prestige they have accumulated over the years is their most critical talisman. Wu Qingyuan's prestige has plummeted due to Ji Wenwen's harassment, which means that it will be much easier for Li Tianlan to find him to settle matters in the future.
This can be regarded as Ji Wenwen doing him a favor.
"What's the point of having only one clock?"
he asked.
"How can it be?"
Dongcheng Wudi shook his head: "Zhong Youwei is just the beginning. Ji Wenwen was ruthless and accurate enough. His evidence completely nailed Zhong Youwei directly at the meeting.
One of the topics at the meeting was to set up an investigation team to go to Huating to conduct in-depth investigations.
This matter is still in the fermentation stage. As time goes by, it will become a big fuss, and the excitement is still to come.
Guo Wentian wanted to arrange his own people in the investigation team, and it was at this time that we expressed our support for the Southeast Group."
"so?"
Qin Weibai raised his eyebrows slightly.
"So, the investigation team is dominated by people from the New Group and the Southeast Group, and the college is also involved. The Prince Group has no way to get involved.
Zhong Youwei must be carefully interrogated and investigated slowly. This is a knife. The longer the time, the closer the blade will be to the key points of the Prince Group, and the more they will bleed, which also means that we will make a profit.
The bigger it gets.”
Dongcheng Wudi smiled happily.
The parliament has its own rules of survival. Personal likes and dislikes are never important. Groups compete with each other, and the main body is not to attack opponents.
On the contrary, mindlessly attacking opponents is the last thing major groups want to do.
What's the benefit of striking your opponent, making him bleed, or even fall apart?
Defeat your opponents and gain benefits.
This is what every group should do. If it defeats its opponents but gives others an advantage, then it is better not to do such a thing.
It is precisely because of this that major groups will hide their cards, temporarily hiding some of the things they have in their hands, and then take them out when needed.
This is the case for the Southeast Group this time.
Judging from the series of evidence provided by Ji Wenwen, it is obvious that they have already mastered a lot of information about Zhong Youwei, and even found out his background.
But the Beihai Wang family had been holding back until this most critical meeting, and they finally played Zhong Youwei's trump card.
Everyone in the Prince Group was overwhelmed, and the effect was very successful.
The only thing they regret is that most of the benefits of this victory went to the New Group, but this also allowed the New Group to change its stance and side with them, giving them the capital to perish together with the New Group.
From the standpoint of Dongcheng being invincible, he had no favorable impressions of either the Southeast Group or the Prince Group. The results tonight were so wonderful that he really couldn't even pretend to be unhappy.
"Talking about the results, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Bai Qingqian glared at Dongcheng Wudi.
Dongcheng Wudi coughed dryly, looked at Li Tianlan and Qin Weibai, and said dissatisfiedly: "The child is still here, Xiaobai, you can't learn from your mother in the future."
"I can not do it."
Qin Weibai sat with Li Tianlan: "I am very obedient."
"How dare you change the subject!"
Bai Qingqian continued to stare at Dongcheng Wudi.
"All right."
Dongcheng Wudi put down his wine glass, thought for a while, and said: "This meeting has achieved quite a lot of results, so I'll just focus on the important ones.
Zhong Youwei is finished. With him as .asxs., the entire Prince Group will involve many people. This is the Southeast Group's trick, and at the meeting, they not only provided such an .asxs., but also provided
Several very important fulcrums have been made. If this matter is dug deeper, the impact will be terrifying, even far greater than the death of Chen Fangqing. Let’s not talk about the long-term, at least in the short term, everything about the Prince Group in Huating will be
Be purged."
He paused and said slowly: "In other words, Huating is ours."
Qin Weibai paused with the palm of his hand holding the food, then picked up a piece of shiitake mushroom and ate it, saying in a steady voice: "In this case... Zhou Yu doesn't need to move."
Zhou Yu is now a man of the hour in the new group.
He is a relative of Zhou Yunhai of the Northern Group, but he has an irreconcilable relationship with Han Donglou. After he joined the new group, the relationship between the new group and the Northern Group directly entered the honeymoon period.
Zhou Yu is now the third person in Huating under the operation of the new group.
If Huating temporarily becomes the back garden of the new group, then Zhou Yu can definitely go one step further and become Huating's nominal second-in-command, but with an actual status no less than that of Huating's speaker.
This will not only further win over the Northern Group, but also put the entire Huating in a stable and transitional stage.
"Zhou Yu..."
Dongcheng Wudi was a little helpless: "His arrangements have been changed several times, right?"
"There is no way."
Qin Weibai was also a little helpless: "The new group is currently short of people. This situation is actually embarrassing, but it is also the envy of other groups. Other groups have people but no suitable positions. We have positions, but we can't find them for the time being.
The right people, the right time, the next five years are so critical."
"If Zhou Yu stays, Ji Ankang will have to go to Northern Xinjiang."
Bai Qingqian said softly.
Before cooperating with the Southeast Group to capture Huating, the arrangement for Zhou Yu was to go to Northern Xinjiang and prepare him to succeed Jiang Shan.
But now that there was an unexpected gain, Zhou Yu couldn't move, so he had to let Ji Ankang pass.
In this situation, North Xinjiang, Huating, South Guangdong, plus Tiannan, these four key points are all in the hands of the new group.
In addition, there are Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Xiyue, Dongshan, Jiangnan...
This foundation will be enough for the entire new group to stand at the top during the integration in the next few years.
"If Ji Ankang wants to leave... Mom and Mr. Wu will have to work harder."
Qin Weibai said softly.
Ji Ankang was originally going to come to Youzhou to be the God of Wealth, which was also extremely important, but there was still the same problem: lack of people.
With this position, Wu Zhengmin and Bai Qingqian will also bear some more pressure in Youzhou.
"It doesn't matter."
Bai Qing smiled lightly and touched Qin Weibai's head: "Mom can still bear this pressure, let alone Mr. Wu."
Qin Weibai nodded quietly.
"What else could come of it?"
Bai Qingqian looked at Dongcheng Wudi.
"The other thing is that the affairs of the Qing Dynasty have been settled, and there will be no more surprises.
The matter of the Border Ban Jun Group has also been decided."
Dongcheng Wudi said: "As we expected, these things are still quite difficult.
However, we stood firmly with the Southeast Group, so in the middle of the meeting, Wu Qingyuan fainted again. Alas, he is old and his body is really useless.
During the adjournment period, the Prince Group also came over to seek cooperation with us. I had a brief chat with them and found that this time we are taking both sides and basically achieved all our goals. Next, we can just watch the show."
Li Tianlan couldn't help but glance at Dongcheng Wudi.
Listen to this...
The New Group and the Haomen Group first cooperated with the Southeast Group and cheated the Prince Group.
Then he turned around and cooperated with the Prince Group, cheating the Southeast Group?
Although it is true that everyone's position will change due to changes in the situation, and today's friends will become tomorrow's enemies, but if you repeatedly jump around in a meeting, does this position change too quickly?
The most direct result is that they helped the two parties and at the same time completely offended the other party?
A little bit good at playing...
Dongcheng Wudi took a sip of wine and continued: "What the Prince Group wants is obvious. The first is Beihai Province, and the second is the position of Huangfu Yi, which is for Wang Xiaoyao.
If Wang Xiaoyao is allowed to join the Beihai Jundan, the consequences will be unpredictable.
For this reason, the Prince Group chose to support Wen Siyuan in ascending to the throne and suppressed Hua Zhengyang.
As for us...
We blocked what Wang Xiaoyao wanted most. I think the Speaker also meant the same thing at the time.
But we don’t care about the location of Beihai, that location now belongs to the Prince Group.”
Li Tianlan was stunned.
Lost the number one in Huating and took the number two in Beihai...
Although these two positions can also represent a lot of things, but when they go in and out...
Didn’t the Prince Group end up feeling lonely?
"If you put it that way, neither side has gained any advantage."
Bai Qingqian was thoughtful.
"Wu Yue's matter should be settled, right?"
Qin Weibai suddenly asked.
"deal."
Bai Zhanfang, who said little, nodded: "Shangyue Chunguang."
Wu Yue is also the focus, but it is hidden under this decisive battle.
It has always been the strongest base camp of the Southeast Group, and it is also the most mature promotion ladder for the Southeast Group. In a way, the Wang family in Beihai attaches more importance to Beihai, but the Southeast Group attaches more importance to Wu Yue.
Wang Qinglei's betrayal made Wu Yue's belonging suddenly become extremely delicate.
Wang Xiaoyao's good friend Yue Chunguang went from Huating to Beihai. From the current point of view, this was Wang Xiaoyao's most damaging move to the Southeast Group.
Wang Qinglei's departure from Wu Yue is a foregone conclusion.
Whoever succeeds Wang Qinglei will mean who will lead Wu Yue in the future.
If Shangyue Chunguang...
This also means that the Southeast Group suffered its most serious defeat in the past twenty years at this meeting.
Wu Yue was lost.
"Looking at it this way, the Prince Group still has some advantages."
Qin Weibai said softly, and quickly shook his head: "But it depends on whether the Southeast Group can use Zhong Youwei to open a bigger hole. If they have enough things, even if the Prince Group takes
It will be difficult to make up for the losses even if we go to Wuyue and half of the North Sea."
"So, the real excitement will come later."
Dongcheng Wudi smiled: "At least this time, the Southeast Group is more embarrassed. Although they also caused a lot of trouble to the Prince Group, they failed to hold on to what they wanted most."
"The Southeast Group didn't hold on, but the Imperial Army Mountain did."
Li Tianlan suddenly spoke.
"Um?"
Dongcheng Wudi glanced at him.
"These prices are acceptable to Wang Shengxiao."
Li Tianlan said in a calm voice: "I don't quite understand what's going on here, but as for Emperor Bingshan specifically, at this stage, they don't mind giving in. For Wang Shengxiao, nothing is more important than Wang Tianzong's recovery."
Several people at the table fell silent at the same time.
The atmosphere was inexplicably depressing.
Dongcheng Wudi was silent for about half a minute, and then said expressionlessly: "Wang Tianzong...is he really going to recover?"
"Two years."
Li Tianlan was silent for a while and said: "No more than three years at most.
The five years that Wang Shengxiao left for him are very sufficient and should be calculated to allow Wang Tianzong to take a further step."
His voice was calm and sure.
In three years at most, Wang Tianzong will recover, and in five years at most, he may break through again.
Dongcheng Wudi had a headache and said with a wry smile: "How can you be so sure?"
"I've seen Kuangtu Li's state."
Li Tianlan said: "After some speculation, we can almost come to a conclusion. I even think Wang Tianzong has woken up now."
He knew the power of the Eternal Sword and had seen the vitality of Kuangtu Li after the breakthrough.
Bringing it into the context of Moormans's sword and Wang Tianzong, he determined that although this conclusion was not absolutely correct, it should at least be similar.
If Kuangtu Li had to face Moormans' sword after his breakthrough, he would definitely be able to recover if given three years.
There is no reason why Wang Tianzong is worse than Kuangtu Li.
And in terms of pure martial arts, in Li Tianlan's heart, Wang Tianzong is slightly better than Li Kuangtu, but in terms of the foundation of martial arts, there is no comparison between the two.
"if it is like this..."
Dongcheng Wudi took a deep breath: "We agreed to cooperate with Southeast Group, are we hasty?"
"It doesn't matter."
Li Tianlan said softly: "Within three years, my injuries can basically be cured. In five years, I should be able to break through."
"I will wait for him to wake up and then send the Beihai Wang family on their way."
He was silent for a while and then suddenly laughed: "When I think about it, I can't wait... time is too slow."
Qin Weibai opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, the manor's housekeeper suddenly walked in.
"President Bai."
The housekeeper looked at Bai Zhanfang and said softly: "A guest is here. He said his name is Huangfu Yi... Do you want him to come in?"
