Chapter 20: Because of Mother's Love

 The autumn rain has obscured the green water and the Cangshan Mountains.

The rain was pouring down, lingering, dark clouds gathered from north to south, and the raindrops continued to fall, bringing with it a frosty chill and desolation.

The lonely mountain in the rain is the most beautiful.

The West Lake is also the most beautiful in the rain.

The old man with gray hair was dressed in commoner clothes, with a stooped body sitting at the junction of mountains and rivers, fishing with a homemade fishing rod.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, and there is still green on Gushan, but the withered yellow color that represents withering is also gradually spreading.

The old man seems to be sitting between life and death, and his back looks lonely and lonely.

The autumn rain is still falling, moistening the green mountains and green waters, making it a sad and beautiful scene.

Poetic and picturesque.

A black umbrella appeared on the mountain road covered with fallen flowers and leaves.

The black umbrella walked down the mountain bathed in rain.

A woman with simple clothes but very beautiful appearance walked behind the old man holding an umbrella.

The woman's appearance is very beautiful, but her eyes reveal a kind of vicissitudes and fatigue after years of experience. She is already quite old, but her haggard expression cannot hide the stubbornness between her eyebrows, which is an instinctive

persist in.

This kind of woman is the most beautiful. Even if her beauty is late, she is still as beautiful as ever.

The woman took a step forward and held the umbrella over the old man's head, blocking the dense rain for him.

The old man didn't seem to notice, he just looked at the water intently without saying a word.

The woman was also silent, standing behind the old man holding an umbrella, like a statue.

There was silence between heaven and earth.

The clock is ticking.

The fishing rod in the old man's hand trembled uncontrollably with his palm, causing ripples in the water.

The woman behind her looked quietly at the old man's uncontrollably trembling palms with sad eyes, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

The old man seemed to realize that there was an extra person behind him. He looked at the umbrella above his head, pointed with his other hand and said with a smile: "It makes no sense, I don't need this thing."

He really doesn't need this.

Even if it rains heavily, as long as he thinks about it, the sky will be clear wherever he passes.

Fearless in wind and rain, invulnerable to all enemies.

Just because his name is Li Honghe.

"There's no point in fishing here."

The woman whispered: "Because you can't catch any fish at all."

Li Honghe didn't mind the woman's tone and said with a smile: "There will be guests arriving soon. If the fish I caught by myself can be put on the table, it will be considered sincerity. I won't lose anything by giving it a try."

"He doesn't like eating your fish."

The woman's tone was crisp and clear.

"But the only thing I can try to satisfy him is fish."

Li Honghe said in a calm tone.

When the woman heard this, her tense expression suddenly relaxed slightly and she said nothing.

Li Honghe didn't know if he saw the expression of the woman behind him. He looked at the lake and suddenly said: "You don't like Zhongzhou."

The woman was silent for a moment and said softly: "I'm tired, I'm tired."

It's not that she doesn't like it, she used to love it, but now she's really tired.

Li Honghe smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly, with a complex tone: "It's Mr. Li who has failed you. But I can't afford to repay you."

"What is letting down?"

The woman said calmly: "It was Zhongzhou who failed the Li family."

Li Honghe did not speak. He was not qualified to say anything on this issue. He was really not qualified.

"It seems I was wrong to let Li Huacheng take him away to the afterlife."

Li Honghe said softly: "In the past life, you have now become the new Major General Xuanwu of Zhongzhou. I thought you would be happy, but now that I think about it, Qingye, will you blame me?"

Li Guansheng...

The cold light in the corners of Qingye's eyes suddenly softened. She was Li Guansheng's mother. To her, her son was everything.

"He still has a future, and he can also help the young master and the Li family. His Highness's arrangements are very good, and I am very grateful."

Qingye said softly that she was once a strange woman in the Central Continent's special warfare system, but as the years went by, this former female general no longer seemed to have the sharp edges she once had.

"And you?"

Li Honghe suddenly asked: "What do you want?"

Qingye looked silent and didn't speak for a long time.

"I suddenly remembered the school motto of Sky Academy, which I personally mentioned back then. If you want to go to heaven, you must first go to hell. Qingye, the Li family can give you freedom now. Do you want to go to hell?"

Li Honghe asked softly, Mr. Li has never seen heaven, whether in glory or in decline, but he has seen hell.

There is freedom everywhere in hell.

If death is freedom....

Qingye smiled and said calmly: "I don't want to die."

She didn't want to die, nor did she want to face it.

Li Honghe nodded and said, "Then let others die."

"Leng Xiao is good. Hanchuan is also good."

Qingye recommended two people. These two people are now in Gushan. They have been following Li Honghe for nearly twenty years. They are loyal and loyal, facing the cold wind and cold rain. They have numerous open and covert attacks.

Li Honghe nodded and said calmly: "Then let them."

"I'll make arrangements."

Aoba nodded.

The mist of rain is still flying in the sky.

The wind stopped and the rain came suddenly.

The sky was gloomy, and a vast whiteness gradually filled the mountains.

It's starting to fog.

Fine white mist drifts between the mountains and rivers, making the mountains and rivers hazy.

After Aoba got the answer he wanted, he turned around and left.

A lone boat appeared on the water in the distance.

A middle-aged man who is a household name in Zhongzhou and appears on the news broadcast almost every year is standing on the bow of the ship, with a majestic appearance.

President of Zhongzhou, Li Huacheng.

Qingye looked back, his eyes filled with indifference.

When the president comes to visit, the entire Gushan seems to be illuminated.

Li Honghe said that all he could give Li Huacheng was fish, but now it seems that he can't even give him fish.

She turned around and left.

Li Honghe also stood up and looked at Li Huacheng who was landing in front of him. The old man smiled kindly and said softly: "President, welcome."

Li Huacheng, who looked high-spirited but actually had a serious look in his eyes, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mrs. Li, you're too polite. The weather is bad, so you should rest more in the mountains."

"It rains occasionally, it's okay."

Li Honghe stretched out his hand to pull Li Honghe ashore. Heat rose all over his body. With him as the center, the rainwater in a radius of dozens of meters was completely evaporated in an instant.

"Gushan is not a barren mountain, but there are really not many resources available. I originally planned to fish in person to entertain you, but the weather was too bad and the fish didn't give me face, so I had to keep everything simple."

Li Honghe smiled and said.

Li Huacheng was slightly startled. Although the other party's tone was calm, he still heard a hint of rejection in the other party's tone. Although this meaning was not clear, it seemed to be enough to explain Li Honghe's true attitude towards his visit today.

.

Li Huacheng frowned. He didn't want to get into the topic too quickly, but Li Honghe's meaning was somewhat clear, so he could only tentatively smile and said: "It's better to keep everything simple. Mr. Li's place is worth more than just the food."

Li Honghe smiled and said nothing more.

Li Huacheng's heart sank slightly again. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Honghe who was still fishing next to him. He said softly: "I have something to report to Mr. Li. Tianlan left Huating two days ago and said he was going.

Let’s go for a walk, but I didn’t say where.”

Li Honghe raised his eyebrows, turned around and took a deep look at Li Huacheng.

"This is a good step back."

He said softly.

He knew a series of things in the outside world. Even if he didn't want to know, but he was in Lin'an at this time, some caring people would try their best to send him information.

But in this situation, it would be really good for Li Tianlan to take a step back.

“Absolutely brilliant.”

Li Huacheng expressed sincere admiration.

"yes."

Li Honghe laughed: "Although I have suffered some setbacks after being away for a few months, it seems to be a good thing. At least he has matured. After all, Li's future depends on him, not me."

coming.

Li Huacheng's heart tightened, but on the surface he said respectfully calmly: "But the Li family still belongs to Mr. Li now."

"wrong."

Li Honghe said quietly: "The Li family only lives for themselves now, so the Li family belongs to each of us. Maybe the future belongs to Tianlan, but now, it is not his, nor mine."

Li Huacheng's mouth turned bitter. He tried his best to smile and said: "I understand what Mr. Li means and understand Mr. Li's decision, but Tianlan is still young after all, and no one knows where he is now. Li...

Mr. Li is still needed to take charge of the overall situation."

"Don't you understand yet? Hua Cheng?"

Li Honghe sighed softly: "After the border war, what the Li family pursues is no longer the overall situation, but freedom. I understand your difficulties, but the Li family today is no longer what it was twenty years ago. Now we need Tianlan to come

I am responsible for the Li family, and I am only responsible for my grandson."

He does understand Li Huacheng's difficulties.

Li Huacheng treats others generously and behaves uprightly. Since he took office, he has pursued a balanced approach to many sensitive personnel issues. He has no deep grudges against major groups. The academic school is rising rapidly.

Li Huacheng acted like this because he had little background, just to leave enough room for the academic faction to survive after he retired.

So from another perspective, the current weakness of the academic school is directly related to their shallow background and Li Huacheng's acting style.

However, he does not want the college group to remain weak. What he hopes is that while giving up some things on the surface, it will seize on some things in the dark, thereby making up for some shortcomings of the college group's own political structure.

For example, the special operations system.

Originally, the college group could look forward to Li Tianlan's growth.

But the cooperation between Gu Xingyun and the Beihai Wang family forced Li Huacheng to speed up his plan.

The special operations system requires masters.

Li's family is now Li Huacheng's only choice.

Li Honghe actually didn't know what Li Huacheng wanted to do with Li, and he didn't want to know. Just like he said, the only thing he could give Li Huacheng was this fish that he didn't know if he could take the bait.

At the very least, he will no longer carry Ms. Li to the mountains of swords and seas of fire under the instigation of the so-called overall situation.

That's Li Tianlan's business.

"Your grandson?"

Li Huacheng narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked in a playful tone.

"Um?"

Li Honghe was a little confused.

"Mr. Li, I accidentally learned something. I came here today to ask for confirmation."

Li Huacheng asked softly: "Do you know Secretary Bai Qingqian?"

"That girl from the Bai family? You know."

Li Honghe nodded.

"Dongcheng Wudi and Bai Qingqian were recognized as talented and beautiful women in the eyes of countless people at that time. They were also very loving husband and wife, but for some unknown reason, their relationship became extremely bad later. I accidentally learned that all this should have started from

It started when Bai Qingqian gave birth to Dongcheng Ruzhi."

"If Dongcheng is not the reason why Bai Qingqian and the Dongcheng family turned against each other, then what exactly led to the breakup between Bai Qingqian and the Dongcheng family?"

"Why?"

Li Honghe asked quietly.

"Because of mother's love."

Li Huacheng stared at Li Honghe: "After what happened that year, I heard that Mr. Li only had a granddaughter who died in infancy. I didn't know that you had a grandson. On the contrary, we all ignored Dongcheng Ru, who was born at the same time as Tianlan.

Okay, Mr. Li, do you really have a grandson?"

"Bai Qingqian is in Guanzhong now. To be honest, that is the place where I once worked, so I still have some influence on Guanzhong."

Li Huacheng said slowly: "A few months ago, when the news of Tianlan's death reached Central Continent, Dongcheng Wudi went to Guanzhong immediately and stayed for three consecutive days without seeing Bai Qingqian. Later, he seemed to have seen him. It is said that

I even received a slap in the face. It was only when I learned the news that I vaguely sorted out some clues, and at the same time I roughly guessed why Bai Qingqian turned against the Dongcheng family."

"There's no other reason we can't see."

Li Huacheng said softly: "It's because of the child back then. Bai Qingqian's hatred for the Dongcheng family is just because she is a mother who lost her own child."

"Dong Cheng Ru is not Bai Qingqian's daughter. Li Tianlan is the son of Bai Qingqian and Dong Cheng Wudi. Mr. Li, Dong Cheng Ru is your granddaughter. I don't know if I am right?"

"wrong."

Li Honghe smiled, his expression did not change at all, but was calm and natural.

"If this is the case between me and Dongcheng, it really has nothing to do with it."

he said softly.

His tone was not forcedly natural at all.

Li Huacheng's speculation is very reasonable.

But whether he believes it or not.

Li Honghe himself knew very well that he really had nothing to do with Dongcheng.
