Chapter 355 Boyuan comes to Beijing, Changping Houfu
In the central part of the Central Plains, there is a mountain that towers into the clouds, and the world calls it the Holy Mountain.
The holy mountain stretches for thousands of miles and is shaped like a figure. The streams on the mountain gather at the corners of the figure, forming one of the most important large-scale rivers in the Central Plains, Luoshui.
On the banks of the Luoshui River, in the basin and plateau formed by the interior of the triangle, the largest and most populous city in the Central Plains was built. It has been the capital for generations and is known as Luojing in the world.
The road leading to Luojing is full of traffic and constant flow.
The turbulent Luoshui flowing upstream still could not stop people's determination to go to Beijing. From time to time, several passenger ships or cargo ships were seen passing by on the water.
There were several cargo ships about ten feet long carrying the clan flag of the Weishui Qin clan, with giant oars sticking out from the bottom. A group of shirtless boatmen shouted uniform chants, as if they were rowing alone.
The oars turned into powerful power and sailed upstream.
On a cargo ship in the middle, in a cabin of about ten square meters, a middle-aged man wearing a long gown and full of elegance looked through the window about half a foot tall at the once very familiar scenery outside the window and sighed.
, sighing to the young man serving him beside him: "I didn't expect that after going round and round, I would come back to this place of right and wrong, Luo Jing..."
"Sir, this time, you are different from last time. This time you are backed by the Weishui Qin family, and you do not plan to become an official. Naturally, there will be fewer disputes." Zhou Hou comforted.
"Backer? It's not like I didn't have a backer last time. I had a background from both Liyang College and a prince, so I was not taken seriously in the Zhenshan Army and was widely ostracized."
Zhou Boyuan shook his head and continued: "No more disputes? That's a good idea. As long as I show up in Luojing, I will be the center of the disputes. Even the Weishui Qin family may not be able to protect me."
When Zhou Hou heard this, he couldn't help but asked anxiously: "In that case, then you still..." At this point, Zhou Hou rolled his eyes, approached Zhou Boyuan, and suggested softly: "Otherwise, we can take advantage of them
Didn't you pay attention and slipped away?"
Zhou Boyuan glanced at Zhou Hou in surprise, shook his head slightly and said: "You, after following me for so many years, reading so many books, and seeing so many people and things, you still can't escape the habits of bandits.
If you bully the weak and fear the strong, and avoid the strong, your career will be difficult to achieve. If you run away from difficulties, nothing will happen."
Zhou Hou anxiously consoled him: "Career and other things are not as important as life. Sir, as long as you still have life, you can achieve everything."
Zhou Boyuan chuckled lightly, shook his head and said: "Do you think we are free after we leave the Qin family army? It's just that they changed a group of people to guard us and a different place to detain us. Even if we want to withdraw, it's impossible
, Moreover, I have said before that this is my choice and the last chance to fulfill my ambition. It is impossible for me to escape. I will die for my ambition and die well."
Zhou Hou looked at Zhou Boyuan helplessly. Knowing that Zhou Boyuan was determined, he stopped trying to persuade him and said with a chuckle: "Sir, no matter what decision you make, I will support you."
Zhou Boyuan looked at Zhou Hou, shook his head and said: "Actually, you don't have to..."
Before Zhou Boyuan could finish speaking, Zhou Hou interrupted Zhou Boyuan and said, "Sir, why did Mr. Qin ask you to come to Luojing?"
Zhou Boyuan looked at Zhou Hou, shook his head, and said nothing more. He just turned to look at the scenery outside the window and said three words: "Check the information."
"Looking for information? What information are you looking for?" Zhou Hou asked in confusion.
However, Zhou Boyuan just stared in a certain direction beside Luoshui in a daze, seemingly lost in memories and no longer paying attention to Zhou Hou.
Zhou Hou sighed and stopped talking. He stood quietly beside Zhou Boyuan, staring at the river outside the window in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
When the dock arrived, Zhou Boyuan and Zhou Hou were put into two huge boxes respectively and sent to the Changping Marquis Mansion by carriage.
When Zhou Boyuan packed up his appearance and was received by the Marquis of Changping, Zhou Boyuan finally met the Marquis of Changping, who was world-famous and important in the entire Luo Jing capital, in his study.
While Changping Hou was processing official documents, he glanced at Zhou Boyuan and asked, "Why did Qin Yi ask you to come to Luojing?"
Zhou Boyuan bowed respectfully and said: "Consult the information on the mountains and rivers geography of the Central Plains and make a sand table as detailed as possible."
After Changping Hou gave his approval on the official document in his hand, he said casually: "Okay, I will let the people in the mansion help you, and you can make the sand table with peace of mind."
Zhou Boyuan bowed and ordered: "Thank you, Lord Marquis."
When Zhou Boyuan left, he stood by the desk and the girl in a green skirt who was doing ink for the Marquis of Changping glanced at Zhou Boyuan's back. After Zhou Boyuan left the study, the Marquis of Changping finished processing the official document in his hand and asked: "Father, Marquis
, As we are an aristocratic family, the sand table in the Central Plains is naturally ready-made, why did Qin Yi specially send this controversial figure to Beijing to make it?"
Changping Hou glanced at the girl, but he couldn't see her little thoughts, but he didn't care. Instead, he patiently taught: "Xi'er, tell me why Qin Yi did this?"
A stern look flashed in Qin Xi's eyes and he said: "This is just an excuse. Qin Yi wants to force you to express your stance! Now, the Villa and the Qin Family Army have expressed their stance, and it's up to you. Who are you? What else do you need to express to me?"
His statement is really ridiculous, my father must not let this arrogant boy go, and must teach him a lesson."
Not only the Villa and the Qin Family Army, but also the Ancestral Land has expressed its stance.
It's just that Qin Xi doesn't know this.
Changping Hou shook his head and said, "You only see this layer?"
"Ah? Is there anything else?" Qin Xi pondered for a moment and said, "Is there any other trouble with Zhou Boyuan?"
Although Qin Xi lacks information, his mind works very quickly.
Changping Hou nodded and said: "He is the witness."
Although what Changpinghou said was unclear, Qin Xi still knew instantly which witness Changpinghou was talking about.
Hearing this, Qin Xi still didn't understand. The moment they accepted Zhou Boyuan's entry into the house, they had already expressed their stance. No, they had already expressed their stance passively when they helped cover up Zhou Boyuan's traces on the road.
Thinking of this, Qin Xi's face turned red with anger, and he gnashed his teeth and cursed: "Qin Yi, this little bastard, what does he mean? Using such dirty methods on his own family, this is how Ninth Brother taught him
?What is he trying to do? Huh?"
Marquis Changping shook his head and shouted softly: "Stop your anger! When encountering big events, you must stay calm. Have you read all your usual books in vain?"
Qin Xi slowly calmed down his breathing and said to the Marquis of Changping: "Father, I was a little strange before, why didn't you make Qin Yi your son? Now, I finally understand, it turns out that this little bastard is with us.
You are not of the same mind, you are so wise and powerful."
Changping Hou shook his head and said: "That's not the reason. I have my own plans for this matter. Xi'er, what do you think Qin Yi will do when he comes to Luojing?"
Qin Xi sneered and said: "Although Qin Yi looks like he wants to avenge Ninth Brother, but I see that he can't wait to accept Ninth Brother's inheritance. Humph! I have seen many such people.
Already."
Qin Xu’s legacy?
The Marquis of Changping had never thought about this.
The main reason is that Qin Yi's strength has long surpassed Qin Xu's. The legacy left by Qin Xu is not important to Qin Yi. As long as he wants it, the family will only give him more.
However, this is also an idea.
After all, some things may not seem worth mentioning to outsiders, but to some people they are extremely valuable.
Like someone in front of me.
Changping Hou glanced at Qin Xi and asked calmly: "Whether he is pretending or not, he must take action. What do you think Qin Yi will do?"
Qin Xi snorted coldly and said in a disdainful tone: "Qin Yi is not a member of the court, and he can't use the methods of the court, so the only remaining method is Jianghu, which is nothing more than assassination or open strife. This kind of fighting
Warriors who kill and kill are the most annoying."
Changpinghou shook his head thoughtfully and said: "From the intelligence point of view, Qin Yi does not look like a reckless man. He can practice to the golden elixir realm at a young age, and he has also created many secret techniques. It can be seen that
His intelligence..."
Qin Xi seemed to dislike his father's praise of Qin Yi the most. Taking advantage of Changping Hou's pause, he hurriedly retorted: "Father, a man like Qin Yi who has a strong understanding of martial arts but is not very knowledgeable in political strategy. Have you ever seen someone like Qin Yi?"
Is there still too little?”
People's time and energy are limited, and people's talents and wisdom are also limited. The two of them were in Luojing and saw a lot of all kinds of people. Naturally, they saw many people who were very talented in martial arts and had amazing understanding, but as human beings.
But he behaves like a childlike warrior.
They have a nickname, Wu Chi.
Qin Yi has achieved such high achievements at a young age. He must have devoted all his time, energy and wisdom to martial arts. He indeed meets the requirements of a martial arts fanatic.
However, Changping Hou still insisted on his own judgment.
After all, there are many people with good martial arts talents, high understanding, and powerful tactics. Even their family produces one every few decades.
Just like him.
However, Changping Hou did not express this idea to his mouth. Instead, he nodded in agreement and said: "Well, Xi'er, what you said makes sense. Let's do this. You will be responsible for Zhou Boyuan's work in the Hou Mansion.
, when Qin Yi comes to Beijing, you will be fully responsible for his reception."
Qin Xi was a little reluctant when he heard that he was asked to be responsible for Zhou Boyuan, but when he heard that he was asked to be responsible for receiving Qin Yi, he immediately nodded very positively and said: "Yes, Father, I will definitely handle this matter.
I guarantee that when Qin Yi comes to our palace, he will feel at home."
Speaking of the last four words, Qin Xi's expression was very excited, his smile was full of malice, and his eyes were shining with pride, as if he had thought of something fun.
Changping Hou shook his head nonchalantly and said: "Okay, you have got what you want. If you don't go out yet, don't disturb me to correct the official documents."
Qin Xi knew that her little thoughts had been seen through, and she did not dare to take any further. She quickly stood up, saluted, and left Changping Hou's study.
After leaving the second courtyard, a girl in a red dress who looked very similar to Qin Xi was waiting outside the door. When she saw Qin Xi, she took two steps quickly, stepped forward to support Qin Xi, and asked with concern: "How is it?"
Qin Xi proudly clasped his fists in his chest, raised his fists and said, "Is there any chance of failure if I take action? My father has already agreed that I will receive Qin Yi when he comes to the capital."
After hearing this, the girl in the red dress also beamed with joy and cheered: "That's great."
Qin Xi quickly covered the mouth of the girl in the red dress, pointed to the study of Marquis Changping not far away with her eyes, and said: "Keep your voice down, otherwise it will be bad if your father hears it."
"Yeah." The girl in the red dress nodded repeatedly, and tried her best to respond while her mouth was covered, indicating that she understood.
Qin Xi then let go of the girl in the red dress. The girl in the red dress asked, "Are we still going to act as planned?"
"Of course, haven't we already planned it?" Qin Xi said angrily: "This guy Qin Yi, as the disciple of Ninth Brother, is more majestic than Ninth Brother. Hmph, I just want to kill him properly.
Prestige, let him know that the Changping Marquis Mansion is not a place where he can be a prestige and blessing by relying on Ninth Brother's remaining power?"
The girl in the red dress nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, yes, we must kill him for his majesty. It is obvious that Xi'er is the successor of Ninth Brother. Who is Qin Yi? He dares to be so majestic. It is really shameful."
That’s true.”
Qin Xi was still smiling and nodding at first, but when he heard what happened later, he felt something was wrong and immediately retorted dissatisfied: "Xin'er, are you praising me?"
"Why not? You are the only female son-in-law of our generation. You are the pride of our Marquis of Changping, and even the pride of the ladies of the major princely houses in Luojing. Xi'er, you have to be more confident." Qin Xin said to Qin Xi with a serious look on her face.
.
Qin Xi stroked her forehead helplessly. Why did she always feel like she was not on the same channel as Qin Xin?
"Okay, I'll be more confident."
Seeing that her suggestion was adopted by Qin Xi, Qin Xin said excitedly: "Let's go and prepare quickly. We don't know when Qin Yi will come. If he comes this afternoon, wouldn't we be blinded?"
?”
When Qin Xi heard this, he immediately pulled Qin Xin and walked forward quickly: "Yes, yes, hurry, hurry, this opportunity is rare, so we can't waste it."
After the two sisters Qin Xi and Qin Xin left, Marquis Changping in the study glanced at the direction in which the two girls left, shook his head, and said to himself: "It's true that children have a good temperament, but it's okay, Qin Yi's limelight is too great."
Sheng Ruiqi is too powerful, and we really need to kill him for his majesty, but we can’t go too far, so Xi’er and the others came forward, it’s just right.”
However, the Marquis of Changping was still worried and said to the guards guarding the door: "Send an order, private soldier Qin Yi, to be promoted to captain of the corps to guard Kunming Garden."
After the guards left, Marquis Changping whispered to himself: "Qin Yi's second uncle will guard Kunming Garden where he is staying. This way, everything will be safe."
Having said this, Changping Hou seemed to be touched by something. He turned to look at the swing in the yard outside the window and chuckled: "Axu, I believe in your vision... Qin Yi, what will he do? I'll wait and see.
