Li Yan passed away on the night of Lin Yi's wedding, which was a big blow to Lin Yi. Lin Yi was in low spirits for several days, immersed in the pain of losing his mother. He also felt that he owed his mother too much and felt very guilty.
On the sixth night of her mother's burial, Lin Yi walked into Qin Gumei's room.
Qin Gumei was playing chess with Wang Guilai, and they had a dispute. Wang Guilai held a chess piece in his hand and angrily wanted to beat Qin Gumei.
Qin Gumei repeatedly asked Wang Hui to calm down.
Wang Guilai said angrily: "Then do you think my horse can run across the fields?"
Qin Gumei hurriedly said: "Nengneng, brother, you are a thousand-mile horse, you can go wherever you want."
Lin Yi felt dumbfounded when he saw this scene, and at the same time, he felt warm in his heart.
This is the happiness of a family. It’s just that my father doesn’t know that Wang Gui is his second uncle.
Seeing Lin Yi coming, Qin Gumei felt as if she was relieved. He pulled Lin Yi and said, "You can play with me. I'm too bad at chess and I always make me angry."
Lin Yi looked at each other and said, "Brother, Jin'er made some ginseng and snow lotus chicken soup. It tastes great. I even left some for you."
Wang Huilai knew that Lin Yi wanted to talk to Qin Gumei alone, so he threw the chess pieces on the table and said, "I'll go and have some soup before I come back to settle the score with you. You're an incompetent and annoying person!"
Although Qin Gumei is Wang Gumei's nephew, Li Yan ended up with a tragic end, which was all caused by Qin Gumei. It can be said that Qin Gumei ruined Li Yan. And it was Qin Gumei who lured the wolf into the house.
Causing disaster in Beifu. This made Wang Guihui feel uncomfortable. So sometimes he would make trouble out of nothing and take the opportunity to teach Qin Gumei a lesson.
After Wang returned and left, Qin Gumei said full of grievance: "Oh, I don't know where I offended Brother Wang. He always looks down on me and finds fault with me everywhere..."
"In the future you will know why brother Wang is like this." Lin Yi walked to the table, picked up a chess piece with one hand and played with it. In fact, let alone Wang Huihui, even he was also interested in this "father"
There is resentment in my heart.
Lin Yi looked at Qin Gumei with a strange expression, and her mother's words rang in her ears. "Yier, recognize him. You no longer have a mother, and you can no longer live without a father..."
This reminded Lin Yi of the circumstances of his mother's death, and his heart ached.
Qin Gumei felt a little uneasy when her son looked at her like this.
Qin Gumei also knows that Lin Yi has resentment in his heart and will not forgive him or recognize him as his "father". He does not expect Lin Yi to recognize him anymore. He just wants to do something for Lin Yi and make up for it.
He felt guilty.
Lin Yi stopped playing with the chess piece and threw it on the table.
When the chess piece falls onto the board, it makes a crisp sound.
Then Lin Yi called out to Qin Gumei.
"father……"
father?!
Qin Gumei was very surprised by Lin Yi's call.
He even thought he heard wrongly.
Qin Gumei said excitedly: "Yi... Yi'er, do you really recognize me?!"
Lin Yi said: "Although you are wrong, you are my father after all. As the son of a man, how can I deny you. Besides, my mother also asked me to recognize you before she died."
Lin Yi finally recognized him as his father. Qin Gumei was excited and happy, and she was a little at a loss.
Lin Yi added: "But I have to make it clear that my father, Lin, is very kind to me, so he is also my father. I will always be his son. I will also fulfill my filial piety for his retirement. Moreover, I
I won’t change my surname to Qin either.”
"Of course, of course, any kindness you receive from someone should be repaid with a spring of water, let alone the kindness of raising someone." Qin Gumei said quickly. However, Lin Yi would never change his surname, which disappointed Qin Gumei. He had originally thought
Lin Yi can change his surname to Qin and then recognize his ancestors and return to the clan, and he can legitimately take back Beifu and restore the glory of Beifu. Since Lin Yi is determined not to change his surname, Qin Gumei can't force it. Of course, he can't force it. Lin Yi can recognize him as his father, he is already very special.
Satisfied.
Qin Gumei added: "Since you don't change your surname...Although Qin Dingfang is rebellious, he is your brother and the heir of the Qin family after all..."
Qin Gumei really didn't know what to say to her son.
Lin Yi said: "Do you want me to spare him?"
Qin Gumei nodded, and said with a heartbroken look: "After all, he is a bloodline of the Qin family, and he must have been deceived by his bitch mother and his uncle for a moment. Don't worry, I will definitely do it when the time comes.
Let him admit his mistake, and I will teach him a lesson, but just let him live. And if you brothers kill each other, the ancestors of the Qin family will also be in trouble if there is knowledge underground. I will be even more sad..."
Lin Yi said coldly: "Qin Dingfang must die! Just pretend that you never gave birth to this son!"
After saying that, Lin Yi turned around and left the house.
Qin Gumei was left standing there alone in shock.
…
Next, Lin Yi began to let the Southern Alliance rest and recuperate. Using the South Campus as its base camp, Lin Yi ordered Zeng Tengyun and Zuo Chaoyang to be responsible for recruiting new people, strengthening the Southern Alliance's power, and preparing to attack the Northern Territory when the time comes.
And most of the people who had been lost in the South Campus came back after hearing the news.
Although the Southern Territory Alliance is in urgent need of strengthening, they strictly control the recruitment of new recruits, and would rather lack than indiscriminately. It is definitely not like when Chen Xianyang recruited good and bad people in the Piaoling Courtyard. In the end, the Northern Territory lost in the battle of the Piaoling Courtyard, and it was also the same as those recruited by Chen Xianyang during the war.
It has something to do with the fact that those people were timid and fled in large numbers.
Therefore, two months later, the total number of troops in the Southern Alliance reached more than 3,000. The strength and sects of the Southern Martial Arts have always been inferior to those of the Northern Martial Arts, and the resources of the Southern Martial Arts have been greatly consumed in the past two years.
, it would be difficult to recruit more people.
If they want to fight the Northern Territory decisively, this force is still weak. Beifu is strong, not to mention Qin Dingfang has many allies. Lin Yi ordered people to train the newly recruited personnel first, and he asked Xiao Lianqin to
Announce the news to the martial arts circles in the north that the South Academy is recruiting ambitious people with huge sums of money, hoping that those martial arts people in the North who are dissatisfied with the Beifu will defect to the South Academy.
This trick worked quite well, and many people in the northern martial arts community managed to come from thousands of miles away to defect to the southern academy.
At this point, although there is still a huge gap between the strength of the South Academy and the Beifu, a "Chu-Han" confrontation situation has also formed.
Lin Yi decided that he must have at least 4,000 men to fight the Northern Territory.
Of course Lin Yi also knew that Qin Dingfang would not be idle during this period. He would definitely find a way to deal with the South Courtyard. Lin Yi ordered Xiao Lianqin to pay close attention to the movements of the Beifu. Soon Xiao Lianqin sent a message, on the eighth day of June
, Qin Dingfang is going to hold a martial arts conference in Jinzhou and elect a martial arts leader on the spot.
Xiao Lianqin said to Lin Yi: "King Lin, since the death of Qin and Tang Dynasties, the rise of the South Academy, and the formation of the north-south martial arts pattern, there are no more martial arts leaders. Qin Dingfang has ulterior motives in convening a martial arts conference this time to elect a martial arts leader."
Zuo Chaoyang and Zeng Tengyun were also nearby. Zeng Tengyun said: "Qin Dingfang must be playing a trick. He may be luring us to participate, and then setting a trap for us to escape."
Zuo Chaoyang also agreed with Zeng Tengyun's conclusion.
Lin Yi didn't think it was Qin Dingfang who set up a trap. He thought Qin Dingfang must have a deeper meaning in convening this martial arts conference. Suddenly Lin Yi seemed to understand something.
Lin Yi said: "Qin Dingfang not only had ulterior motives, he also had sinister intentions. He held a martial arts conference to elect the leader of the martial arts alliance. He must have won the leader of the martial arts alliance in the end. He became the leader of the martial arts alliance, found a reason, and then ordered the martial arts alliance to deal with the South Academy.
.We’re done.”
After hearing what Lin Yi said, the three of them finally understood Qin Dingfang's intention.
Xiao Lianqin took a breath of air, and the faces of Zuo Chaoyang and Zeng Tengyun beside her also changed. I had to admire Qin Dingfang's skill.
